  • Let it be said that there is absolutely nothing horrible about this place. Everything is just mediocre. First, the decor was the best thing about it. It was new, well-painted, pretty paintings and new chairs and tables with granite on top. There were nice fake plants on the ceilings and walls, and the bathroom was clean, and nice. The problem is that the tables had this bar under them where my friend kept hitting his knees against. The tables were set so close together that I could probably have reached over to the other table and stolen a spring roll off of it. Speaking of the spring rolls, they were just not good. The flour sheets on the spring rolls were chewy, and they did not have that nice crunchy stuff in the center that tastes really good, like the ones at Lemongrass. The dipping sauce was good, but not exceptional. The pho was the biggest let-down today. Pho Saigon 8 on Spring Mountain had rich, full broth, that seemed just a little too fatty, and was very good. This one was rather thin, and its flavor was easily masked by any of the things that you could put in it. For example, more basil meant that the pho tasted like basil and not pho. Add bean sprouts, and the pho tasted like water and not much else. The meat was good, though, and they put a liberal amount of green onion, which I always like. I also tried the lemon soda. This was a very good soda, although it was much too sweet. I think it could have benefited from having more lemon flavor and less sugar in it. They have no sandwiches. In addition, everything there is smaller, and/or more expensive than Lemongrass, right across the street. For example, the large pho was the same price for both, but the bowl is smaller was easily finished by myself and my friend. We've almost never finished a large pho at Lemongrass. The Vietnamese seafood crepe was both smaller *and* more expensive, by as much as $0.50-$1.00, and while good, made me a little skittish about ordering it again. The Spring Rolls were the same price, but came with only two instead of three like at Lemongrass. Much as I want to see more pho places around, I simply cannot recommend this place with Lemongrass Cafe so close to it. Maybe if it was in the middle of rural Nevada with no other competition, it would have impressed me more. I'm sorry, Pho Saigon 8 :/
