| - I've only been once, so service might depend day by day, because I have seen some complaints about it.
However, we enjoyed the place. I was craving pho after a long day of soccer drinking yesterday, and we needed to run some errands in Kensington anyway, so my husband and I decided to give this place a gander. It was fairly crowded at noon on Sunday, but we were still able to get a table. The server asks how many, seats you with tea, and gives you a menu and a paper where you write down your order. My pho came before my husband's shrimp and sugarcane, but it wasn't a very long wait. It's a very no-frill place in terms of service, but we didn't have any issues with the servers. We got our food, our bill, and nothing was messed up on our order.
The menu is quite extensive, around 100 items, so there are plenty of choices no matter if you want meat, seafood, or vegetarian. Be aware that soups cannot be taken to go, so keep that in mind when ordering size (small, medium, large). It is also cash only.
I thought the food was quite good, although the pho could have used a little more beef. The broth is delicious, and there was a good quantity of noodles in my soup. My husband also really enjoyed his shrimp and sugarcane, although there was a bit of a learning curve for him and the rice paper. This place is a solid 4 stars, perhaps 5 if you don't mind some bare-bones service and just want food. I'd go again.
