    I’ve been searching for the best bowl of Bun Rieu in the city for three years—this might be my favorite. Great airy space and friendly service—definitely coming back.

    Been coming here on & off for years; it’s an OK to good Vietnamese restaurant. Their soups are decent (the #12 is highly recommended), same goes for their combination plates.

    Get the bbq chic pho, excellent! Fried shrimp rolls, and the fresh rolls with Mae ploy sauce! The staff on weekends is different than on weekdays, go during the week. Closed Thursdays.

    For the rice plates which are pretty good and much better than the noodle soups by Vietnamese city standards!

    Good picks: Shrimp Ball, any Pho, any Bun, and the Hot & Sour Catfish Soup. New offering: Chicken Wings in 3 different preparations.

    I always get the pho tai and a Vietnamese coffee. This is my favorite hangover cure on the planet!

    All they do is when you order a large is charge you more for a bigger bowl, they don't give you more noodles or meat. Not coming back to this place! 🙅🏻‍♂️

    Anyone ever notice that the sign outside phonetically reads "Fuck him son?" Yeah, me neither. Make sure to half-bow to your waiter when you order like my idiot friend.

    Overall was "ok" - both Pho's were a bit lackluster - I had the spicy combo and it was a bit bland - Poots had the chicken curry and it was pretty greasy - Pho Clement is better
