We stopped in here for lunch for the first time today and the service was friendly and fast, and the pho and vermicelli bowls were excellent!There is some seating outside near a fountain and the breeze was lovely so we asked if we could sit outside to eat and they made it so easy, bringing our food out to us with additional bowls for sharing. The space inside is small but with the outdoor seating, that wasn’t an issue. If we lived around here we would definitely be back!!

Very kind owner, Kevin answered all our questions and was accommodating. Spring rolls with shrimp and pork were delicious and the peanut sauce paired perfectly. Special Pho was delicious! Broth was very authentic and spot on, hit the spot for comfort food when I am missing my mom’s home cooked Vietnamese. Very fair priced and a must visit. Vietnamese iced coffee is perfect not too too strong!

Food was great! I like Pho and Vermicelli very much so I tried a lot, and this is one of the best Pho restaurant I had! The owner is very friendly too.

David the owner very nice and friendly. Pho broths is one of the best Ive ever had (and Ive had a lot of pho) The Vietnamese Iced Coffee and Thai tea were delicious as well. I dont understand the plastic to go containers to eat out of, but they are designed perfectly for pho lol. I would definitely check this place out

Very good food overall (I had rare beef pho). The noodles were springy and it was a good portion for the price, served in a convenient to-go bowl with lid. Very nice and prompt costumer service, thanks!

Been visiting Carlsbad a few times a year to take a class and I have found a few go-to spots to eat, and so happy to add a pho place to the list. Definitely hit the spot on a cloudy day! The owner was also super friendly and came to check on us multiple times. Fast service!

Authentic. Fresh. Delicious. Was charging at the supercharger and decided to try it out on a whim and it didnt disappoint! Spring rolls were a huge portion and amazing, a must have as an appetizer or as a main course.

Third time here and still as good as the first place is a must try if you like Vietnamese food! The owner is also one of the nicest people I have ever met, so even more the reason to support!

Really great pho place. My family is very picky about pho and they especially love the broth from this place. David was very friendly. He recommended the eggs rolls and he did not disappoint. Truly a must try place.

The owner David is very friendly. Haven’t really found a good Pho place around my neighborhood until now. We have been going there at least once a week for the last month. Pho has great flavor and our kids loved it. I especially like the pork over rice and spring rolls. We’ve also had the pork bahn mi.

I have never had a Vietnamese sandwich before. I’m working in the area couple blocks down so I decided to stop by. I really wanted something fresh and green. The sandwich was on point not too much not too little and super fresh. Definitely going to make another pitstop sometime to try out some other dishes👌🏽

The best Viet spot in town- and the most affordable. I really dont care about good service especially at a counter service restaurant, but the owner is very friendly and forthcoming with suggestions for new patrons.

Had some simple pho and banh mi here. The owner was friendly and assisted us in navigating the vegan options. The plaza offered a serene atmosphere, ideal for enjoying a meal.

Probably the best pho broth I’ve ever had, and I’ve had pho from all over the country including NYC and Little Saigon in LA.

Read all these great reviews so stopped in to order dinner to go. The guy was talking on the phone on speaker & when he saw me waiting to ask him a question he never got off the call. I walked out. Terrible customer service.
