I decided to get Pho here after the Mystere performance. I believe they are open until 2:30AM so it was a very nice convenient place to get something warm on a cold night in the winter. Let me premise this review by saying that I've had a lot of pho. I mean A LOT. If you are what you eat, I would be a bowl of pho, tripe, and meatballs the size of Los Angeles.
Ok, so if you're coming here for pho and you come from a big city like Los Angeles or San Francisco, then your expectations are too high. Their menu is limited in terms of the "fancier" and more adventurous meats (like tripe). Most of their set bowls come with only 1 type of meat and the price of each bowl changes with different types of meats. That is different from most other pho places where there is a set price regardless of what you put in there.
Be prepared! It's expensive (but are you really surprised when eating pho in a Las Vegas hotel?) It's about 12 bucks a bowl unless you get the super special bowl (with all the meats they offer including meat balls, tendon and raw beef) which is 14. Their pho soup base was really sweet in comparison to what I am used to. For me, this was bad since I'm not accustomed to really sweet pho soup, but it wasn't really a deal breaker). They only have 1 size bowls and I would say that it isn't a particularly large bowl.
In addition to pho, they have other Vietnamese dishes as well (rise and other noodle dishes and spring rolls) but I can't really comment on these since I didn't eat them. Since they are connected to the cafe next door, you can also order off the menu from the next door cafe (which serves traditional American type foods). This is especially good when you have people in your party who are not particularly fond of Vietnamese food.
Also, keep in mind that this is not your traditional pho restaurant... the waiters are not Vietnamese. In fact most are hispanic. So if you ask for anything strange, most of them don't know what you're talking about.
Overall the service was great and what you would expect from a Las Vegas restaurant. If you desperately want pho, this is your place on the strip, but with so many other delicious foods on the strip, go get something new!
