Its really over modernized, kinda made it more fancy kind of Vietnamese place, but sadly the taste is kinda far from the good traditional Vietnamese taste, spent 30+$ for a bowl of pho, some eggroll, and a lychee tea. sadly you can only get 1 topings on your pho, because if you add another meat that would be another 15$, never got any water, they dont serve traditional topping like tendon, tripe, and the eggrolls are really just over modernized that the taste is so far.... service is idk. Maybe its a self service kinda place? I would definitely pick a small traditional mom and pop PHO place over this.

Owner is an amazing, talked to me and my friends and talked about the business and his story of getting the place. I’ve been here before a year ago and the food this time was way different in a good way. Food is really high quality and tasted amazing. Easily one of my favorite pho spots to go now. Prices are really good. 10/10 recommend to anyone.

I have enjoyed coming here for a few years now and the flavors and quality of food has always been great. If you are looking for a must try bahn mi you have to come here. I’d also recommend their bone broth as it is worth trying on its own or in the pho.

Decent but overpriced pho/noodle soups. The ambiance is casual order up front and served where youre seated dining. It was an ok restaurant to try but only if youre in south county not willing to drive all the way to Westminster/Garden Grove area. Interesting concept but I think Ill drive north of Irvine.

Tried the top round beef pho for the first time and dayum...top quality pho. Most pho places usually only have pork and vegi spring rolls. It’s nice that they have spring rolls with many other options. The peanut sauce was a bit watered down and blan but the pho bowl flavor def made up for it. Plenty of seating inside and out. Pretty cool take on your typical pho restaurant. Overall good food. I give it a solid 4.5 only because I think the prices are a bit steep for the overall concept without that WOW type factor to justify prices.

I had the Dumpling Pho and Ahi Spring Rolls. Everything was great including the service my tray cost $20 so it was a little on the pricey side for me but it was good and a lot of food perhaps the spring rolls are best shared but overall it was enjoyable and very fulfilling the staff was very nice and the atmosphere was great.

This wonton soup was not worth the $13. I only had one spoon and gave it to my husband to finish. Even he didn’t like it! Noodles tasted old and wonton was a bit rubbery

I really like Vietnamese food. A close friend of the family owns a great mom and pop Vietnamese restaurant in Philadelphia and this reminds me of that. The broth was rich. The brisket flavorful. I also enjoyed the Ahi salad. Will definitely be back.
