| - Been visiting this place quite frequently lately for take-out ever since I got on mealpal and was able to order pho for $5 after tax (with discount on plan) or $8. I am not sure how the portion size compares to the regular bowl that you might get, but it's not a bad portion as I'm satisfied with the meal.
The restaurant is clean, though they only have high seats.
Washrooms are in the basement.
When you're there to pick up your order, they will then pack the soup so that it is still hot, as opposed to some other places that might just leave your order sitting around. This is important because if you're getting the beef pho, they include a pack of raw beef. Also, cool soup is not cool.
I've tried their beef, brisket, and chicken pho and they've all been pretty good. I prefer the brisket a bit more because it feels like they give more meat there, but the chicken is alright as well.
They use some sort of small sprout which is different from the ones you'd usually find, which is an interesting twist. They are less crunchy than their thick long counterparts, and taste somewhat bitter. So if you like that extra crunch from sprouts in your pho, this might not work for you. But it doesn't really matter to me. Two different types of sprouts are offered: fenugreek sprouts, and red clover sprouts.
Their soup is not too heavy, not too oily. Flavour is pretty light; might need to add some extra sauce if you want the extra flavour.
If you're on mealpal, definitely an option to consider since the regular prices are 12+
