BEWARE DIRTY AND DISGUSTING RESTAURANT WITH LAZY EMPLOYEES WHO CHARGE A SERVICE FEE FOR TEA AND WATER!!!!
I used to live in this area when I was younger and this restaurant was my family's go to place whenever we wanted pho. Service back then was great. Now that I'm older, I decided to eat at this restaurant since I was in the area and I remembered this place as a really delicious Vietnamese restaurant.
The workers are DISGUSTING. I was seated at the table where I can see all the employees behind the cash (where they make smoothies). The lady was making an avocado smoothie and she was peeling the avocado with her bare hands. NO GLOVES! Did I mention that she didn't even wash her hands first? I was so disgusted by what I saw.
Service is TERRIBLE. All the employees just chit chat in their language behind the counters. When I asked for some water, the lady had to ask someone else to do it, which I didn't understand since after passing the task, she just continued to chit chat with her coworkers.
When it came time to pay the bill, I was told a price higher than I expected. I ordered food worth $12.50 and was being charged $15.25 after tax. $12.50 plus tax is $14.13. When I asked why am I being charged more, I was told that there is a SERVICE CHARGE OF $1 FOR THE SERVICE, TEA AND WATER. I was shocked to hear such thing. Apparently service, water and tea are not free since she said NOTHING IS FREE. I didn't bother to leave a tip. And she questioned where's her tip. I told her I paid a "service fee", there's no need to tip.
