We live fairly close to here and have been frequent customers.
I get that Pho linh is considered superior but I'm veggie and I've got 0 options there. I'm fine settling with middle of the road veggie broth pho and v average congee.
Honestly it has been great sometimes. lots of fresh herbs and veggies in a really clean tasting broth. other times...
-half a pepper mill dumped over the top?? owner refuses to change anything. I do my best to scoop most of it off.
-different toppings, different days. occasionally no tofu as advertised. broth also tastes different day to day.
-owner closes whenever he wants. we came in with an hour before close... nono. can't serve, closing soon goodbye goodbye. *restaurant has 6 tables of people eating/being served*... another time the restaurant was just dark 1.5hrs before close.
Like, I'm just kinda fed up? I don't know, it's just not worth it anymore lol.
I feel like I'm playing viet roulette.
