First: don't let the outside appearance throw you off. We almost didn't go inside because it looks so sketchy outside, but the inside is very nice, clean, and looks newly renovated.
Second: I normally don't like pho places, but my wife does and she needed a pick me up. I was pleasantly surprised. They had some non-pho menu items. The kung pao chicken was very good, nice portion for a cheap lunch special. The free veggie spring rolls that came with my Yelp check-in were very good (I normally don't like spring rolls), and tasted freshly made instead of pre-frozen. The crab puffs rocked.
Service was fast and polite.
