I really love this restaurant and I have for years. I've recently rediscovered this little gem. I worked in the neighborhood years ago and I would frequent Noodles Ranch for the Pho. OMG, seriously good Pho.
I recently was able to talk my extremely picky husband to try it. I got him to try the spring roll. And he tried a dish with lemongrass and chicken that he was really happy. Score!
I had the Pho with tofu. I was very happy (especially because I wasn't feeling all that great and the Pho was so soothing and delicious). They provided me with copious amounts of lime and mint upon request and I was one happy girl.
I will admit, I've only ever had the spring rolls and Pho, but I've never been disappointed.
The ambiance is surprising, it is in a strip mall. But you walk in to a really airy and comfortable space. The decor is unique and fresh.
The staff, other than the owner that ended up helping us, is a little lacking the service skills, but hopefully that will develop with time. I hope they crack the whip on the sitting on the counters by the register, talking on their cell phones, and the lack of attention (hence the reason the owner took over, I assume).
