I was put off by the attitude I got at this place. I didn't like how the guy taking my order belittled me for not ordering any appetizers or drinks. I also don't like the handwritten signs that made excuses for why their service is slow and why they don't let non-patrons use their bathroom (a simple "customers only" would work, but no, they have to go into great lengths to explain that toilet paper is expensive and therefore only their "friends" -- the customers -- can use the toilets blah blah).
That aside, decor (minus the handwritten signs) is great. I felt like I was at a noodle stand in southeast Asia. I enjoyed my Cambod-Ican noodle soup (their take on pho). I normally don't like pho because it tastes too much like MSG but it wasn't so bad here. I tasted my friend's crispy noodles and thought it tasted like really sweet, low quality Chinese take out lo-mein (but at least the noodles were sufficiently crispy). My other friend found her vegetable curry with chicken to be too spicy for her liking.
The whole payment system is awkward. Why not just take payment when I order at the window? Why do I have to awkwardly and deliberately put on my coat in full view of the window to signal them to come out and give me the check? It's beyond me.
