. "5"^^ . "2"^^ . "1"^^ . "0"^^ . "I didn't want to give this establishment 5 stars because of the higher price compared to other great viet restaurants in the area. My overall experience pushed it from four stars to five. \n\nFood - \n\nFree small bowl of beer nuts, yum. Yes, free. They're seasoned with sweet ginger and salted garlic. Not sure why, but there was a nice, welcomed spice to them. You can also purchase these for $1.99 if you want more or some to go. \n\nThe server asked us what we wanted to drink (which is different from regular pho stores), I said tea. I don't know if this is complementary, but it's the same green tea that normally comes to your table at most other pho restaurants. I'll make sure to check my bill next time. \n\nPho only comes in small and large sizes. The prices are higher than other pho restaurants in the area. However, it's a price I'm happy to pay since you get the \"free\" peanuts and the place is so clean. The pho here is good. We both got size small (pho dac biet) and felt the portions were correct & veggies came plentiful. He also brought me extra lime as soon as I asked. The noodles and meat were good. The only thing I didn't care for was all the raw onion in the pho (I picked some out). One other thing is that I like my broth smoking hot. It was hot, but not really smoking/steaming hot. A small bowl of pho dac biet was more than $7, but less than $8. \n\n2 Spring rolls served on a couple pieces of lettuce with some carrots and nuoc mam to dip. You could tell the oil they fried these in were fresh which made for a good spring roll. Again, a little pricey since it came with 2, but good enough that I'll probably order it again. \n\nService - Always good and friendly. They take your order instead of you having to write it down. Checked up on us once during our meal which was nice even though we didn't need anything. Brought everything out quickly. I like their staff. \n\nCleanliness - 5 out of 5, reallyyy clean. Really, really clean; which is rare for a pho place. You can bring your non-Asian friends here without them questioning your choice of shady restaurant. \n\nAlso had enough parking spots to accommodate customers. \n\nFinal thoughts - Although it is a bit pricier here, it doesn't bother me thaaat much. It would bother me less if pho con bo wasn't in the area. But on cold days that I'm feeling bummy and don't want to bump into anyone at pho con bo, I'll definitely be coming here. Which is likely how I'll be feeling a lot. \n\nI'll also be back to try the worlds largest bowl of pho (dac biet, 16 inch bowl)"^^ . . . "2018-03-09T00:00:00"^^ .
