The food was amazing, the wings are an absolute masterpiece! The waiter Tiffany was also really hospitable and professional, will definitely come back for more!

The spot we originally wanted to go to was closed for the day, so we decided to try out Happy Pho because it was close by and it turned out to be pretty good. We ordered the pork/shrimp egg rolls, vegetarian egg rolls and shrimp egg rolls, all which were good. We also ordered the shaken beef rice dish, and I appreciated that the egg was cooked perfectly over medium, as well as the happy pho special, which my friends enjoyed.

The Pho and spring rolls were delicious. We also tried the fried egg rolls and fried shrimp rolls - less flavorful, but not bad. I only gave 4 stars on the service because our server never checked back with us after serving the food and only offered a water refill long after we finished the meal, but she was otherwise very pleasant.

Prices went up and food didnt improve for the contrary less food .Im surprised we (husband sister in-law and niece)used to go every other week but dont think we will be back. The lady is very kind and knows your likes . I really will be missing the place. But 3 times is enough for us.

I came In here “Today” with my wife and she order the house special pho. I order The luc lac that’s in the picture. I gave Her the first bite of my meal.she look at me funny. Than I tried one bite after and spit it out. This food was not fresh what so ever. I can’t Even tell what type of animal meat I chewed. It was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever ate. I knew instantly I was Going to get food poison. I don’t like to write bad reviews but no way in hell I want my worst enemy to eat this. I did not ask for a refund. I paid and left. Do not trust this restaurant. I’m writing this because now I have to see a doctor tomorrow and miss work. One last thing. I order ice coffee to go and never got it. Thank you for doing me a favor of saving my time because I would have trash it the minute I left.

This is my first visit so I can only comment about my first impressions. I went in the middle of a week day so it wasnt busy and parking was easy. It was quiet inside. There doesnt seem to very much staff that day. I ordered a steak pho bowl with beef broth. The texture of the noodles was good. The broth looked plain at first but turned out to be pleasantly flavorful. The cuts of steak were good and tasted very fresh. The service was decent but Im afraid of how the staff will handle a busy day. All in all it was a positive experience and very affordable. Id come back and try again because I like to support smaller thriving businesses if their products are good👍

Tried the Happy Pho Special tonight and it’s pretty tasty. I would probably get another pho dish though because I mainly just ate the beef, noodles and soup in this one. The Happy Pho Special just had too many meats for my taste. The soup base of the pho is nice and rich though. I enjoyed the rice noodles. I also ordered a side of the Shrimp Egg rolls that worked well wrapping with the lettuce it comes with. The service brought me a little extra sprout salad as well with lime (which there are some sauces on the table to add to). Overall, dining here was a nice treat and I look forward to trying the other types of dishes they have to offer!

Severely short in staff, busy dinner time they had only one employee working everything. Huge line and a lot of people waiting. Ordered chicken & shrimp combo, first food came out without shrimp, told the kitchen staff, they added 3 tiny shrimps. Found a fly in noodle bowl. Can see this place suffering from the economic downtimes.
