This restaurant caters to tourist. I totally understand that many small businesses survive off of tourism here...but I just wasn't impressed. I came for the food not the ambience or décor. It gets packed in here. The tables are small...no elbow room at all so it feels like you have to overlap your arms with your neighbor to try and get a chopstick full of food in your mouth. The servers were servers...customer service could be improved but then again they didn't speak much English...I think that night they had nothing but Brazilians serving.
Go E.O.E.!
The food is just ok. It doesn't taste any kind of authentic...it's pretty bland. I dislike having to add salt in broth when I go to Pho restaurants and that's what I had to do here...uugh. Get the broth right please! The water cups look like they've been run through the dishwasher a thousand times too many. But the soda was good. Our bill for the 4 of us came out to be about $90...WTF?! I've never spent so much on PHO!
To sum it up...it's pricey, bland and made for tourist. I would only come here for a late nite 2am Pho craving...but then again there are other 24 hour pho places too. The bells and whistles here are nice but if you don't have the taste of the food to back it up it's just not worth it.
I like saying the restaurant name long and slow though...tickles me every time!
