I think the sketchiness of the restaurant adds to the experience, especially when it comes to Pho.
Went here for my second Pho experience, and I have to say I really loved it. I'm not sure if they do or don't put MSG in the meals, but it didn't really matter to me. Slurped it up in no time.
Ordered the house Pho with spring rolls. Waiters seemed to forget that we had ordered pop and the spring rolls, so the dish didn't come to us until after the Pho. No biggie, still recommend the place.
