    Surprised that the pho & crepe are so good & reasonably priced! Nice staff, small place with decent space. Not easy to find the cafe as you can only see their house number 2841 (not name) from outside

    Great prices! The lemongrass beef is super flavorful! Had the beef pho with meatballs & steak. Didn't care much for the meatballs but the rest was great!

    Awesome spot for reasonably-priced fast, clean and delicious Pho. Excellent vegan and vegetarian options. Good people watching as well. Definitely worth checking out. - Jerusha, Legal Counsel

    Great for late night Vietnamese grub. Good flavors and simple menu that will please most everyone. Remember to bring cash!

    It seems redundant to say a pho place in silverlake is really hipster, but I have to emphasize that this place is *really* hipster. Prob best to avoid after a local natives show at the echoplex.

    Pho has a rich, authentic broth despite the hipsters. The crispy egg rolls are good as a starter. Good service.

    Great price and super fast service - easy to miss on Sunset without a sign, but definitely worth the extra effort

    Impossible parking and you will most likely have to wait in line, but it is the best, freshest Pho in town, seriously, no exaggeration.

    Just ok. Not terrible but had beef pho - broth was muddy, bean sprouts roots haven't been trimmed and beef isn't the nice thin rare slices that I hoped for. Also, the plunger left in sink...

    Hard to spot, as the name is not displayed out front. Same strip mall as Rambutan Thai. The greens at your table are not just there for decor. Mix them in with your food. They're delish!

    Tofu + Mushroom pho = the most delicious pho I have ever had. mmmmm. Order it with extra jalapeños to hit the spot. cash only + parking is always tight.

    Hands down my favorite place to eat in LA. There's no sign on the front so finding it if you're a first timer can be tricky. Order the fresh spring rolls.

    Bowls of soup take much longer than bowls of rice noodles. Order with this in mind.
