| - Went here because Lemongrass Cafe was closed for remodeling... that place is our go-to, but my partner and I were really craving pho, so we reluctantly had to settle for another nearby place.
Been here once before, but wasn't much memorable back then. Felt the same way the second time around. We were immediately given menus and water, which was cool. Took a little while for someone to take our order though, but no biggie.
Lots of different meat options for the pho. But felt that the broth itself was almost flavorless. Perhaps because it was a freshly cooked batch and didn't have enough time to steep? Who knows. But the side of herbs of basil, sprouts, lime, and jalapenos were very fresh though. Spring rolls were also big and plump and a filling appetizer for two people. Just wish it had been cut in half to make it easier to eat.
Service wasn't exactly warm, but adequate. Waters were refilled without having to ask. No one checked in on us at the end though or dropped off a check, so we just paid at the counter. (Not sure what the normal protocol was).
Fills the craving, but just made us miss our usual Lemongrass Cafe.
