Pho Vn 21

"I won’t be back…. They raised their prices and lowered the quality. There was BARELY any meat in it.."

"I am split between 3 and 4 stars. I think the place is what it is. I just simply did not know what it is since a family friend chose the restaurant. So this place is not for everyone -- but if you like this type of restaurant, this place may deserve 4 stars. Let me start with the biggest concern: We were a party of 12 folks. Everyone ordered different things. The waiter (proprietor?) insisted on us having a single bill. His notes were unreadable (Vietnamese?) and as I stood at the cashier, he rang up a bunch of food that I had no way of checking was correct. He seemed confused himself and added and removed several dishes several times. I guess I could have taken the final bill which did list individual items back to the table to check with everyone, if this was truly what we had consumed. But (1) our party was already in the process of leaving (2) it would have been difficult anyway and (3) the bill per person was fairly low ($10 * 12 = $120) so I did not feel it was worth the trouble. However, I don't like paying bills that I do not understand. I would have preferred if each table (we occupied 3) had paid their own bill with roughly 4 people each. The good: The food was inexpensive. The food was served quickly. The place seemed reasonably clean. The okay: The food tasted good. I am not an expert of Vietnamese food, so I cannot say if it was excellent or just average. I had a soup and a cold vegetable roll -- both was fine. The bad: The server (proprietor?) came across as rude. To be fair his English was somewhat limited. He made it very clear that he was going to close shop in 30 mins as we sat down. He moved tables together for our party of 12 which was nice. He rushed us to order (somewhat understandable as we only had 30 mins). Later he ran his cleaning card into my wife's shoulder and did either not notice or ignored it: There was no apology. Further down the table, he pressed 2 young ladies in ordering quickly as they were exploring the menu (they themselves not being native English speakers). One of the ladies felt so annoyed that she decided not to order anything (so maybe my rough calculation of how much we spent per person should be $11). So this was not ideal either. The atmosphere of the place is very bare bones. The restaurant is located in strip mall with convenient parking outside. The walls are barren with a few inexpensive looking decorations. The kitchen in the back is open and visible. The tables and seats are barren and simple. But this may all go nicely with a $10 per person meal."

"I will come back phone was good chicken had a weird after taste service was alright they just bring you the food and don’t follow up with you overall it was alright"

"Amazing bun thit nuong. I was craving this dish and had been disappointed by a couple of other Viet restaurants, however, this place pulled through. I can now rest easy knowing my craving has been satiated until the next super moon."

"Just look how fresh the bread is!! Best Bánh Mì I’ve ever had. Excellent fast service. We order shrimp spring roll, beef Bánh Mì w/fried egg and chicken pho. The total cost was under $23. Superb meal for two!!"
