| - Tried to place an order over the phone, but there was no answer. The S.O. decided to place a to-go order in person. The ordering process went well, he had no complaints. The order was ready in under 20 minutes. We ordered:
Spring roll with shrimp only (upcharge)
V8: Tofu Pho
47: Hu Tieu Nam Vang
The S.O. was impressed with their vegetarian options. They have an entire page on their menu dedicated to vegetarian dishes. The previous Vietnamese restaurant we called did not have vegetarian options, not even vegetarian pho. Anyway, the food. The shrimp spring rolls came with a creamy peanut sauce. Delicious. The rolls as well as the contents of our soups contained fresh vegetables and proteins. I try to order a different soup everytime we eat Vietnamese food. I ordered the Hu Tieu Nam Vang and did not know what to expect. What I received was very similar to pho. The soup had a light, mild base. Flavor was also similar to pho. I only noticed a slight difference in flavor. I felt the need to use my S.O.'s pho "mixers," hoisin sauce and sriracha for added flavor. Not too wowed. I was however, pleased with the vegetable, noodle, and protein ratios. Good portions. When asked how his pho was, the SO responded with, "good!" He is not afraid to speak up if his food sucks, so it must have been good. I meant to try his broth, but got distracted with mine.
Prices are reasonable. I wouldn't mind ordering from here again. I'll try something else next time. I'm sure the SO will order from their vegetarian menu again soon.
