This restaurant is very crowded in terms of their layout. They have seatings for eight, which makes it difficult for the waiter to get the bowl to the person in the middle. I find the pho here tastes cleaner than typical joints probably because there's no MSG. I think after reading reviews and seeing what others ordered, the rice & vermicelli dishes are probably what you should order here instead of the pho. Also, in terms of competitive pricing, 10$ for spring rolls seems a little high in my opinion. I believe pho 88 price is around 7.50?
