Love this place. We’ve been coming for years. Their food is great. My wife always gets the crispy fried noodles. I try different dishes every time and I keep coming back. Their manager is excellent. Service is casual , ambience is not the best but it’s not bad. Prices are decent.
The line was out the door when we arrived at 3pm and it was worth the wait! The wait was only about 10-15 minutes and they seated people really quickly. We ordered the salt and pepper calamari with the chile sauce that was very fresh and was brought out very quickly. Both of us ordered the shrimp and crab patty with shrimp and tomato broth and it was absolutely fantastic. The portion was so massive that we'll have leftovers for another two meals. The service is perfectly efficient and what you would expect from a spot in Chinatown or in Asia, I'm not sure why people are complaining about it.
I think this place is overrated. I have heard from many people that their quality has changed a lot over time and that they are not as good anymore, but I just ignored due to the high reviews that I have seen. This is the first place we decided to try out after arriving at Vegas. I was hoping for a good dinner to regain my energy after a long drive, but was met with a less than average service. The entire time we were there, the employee who served us looked and acted like he was forced to work against his will.
On to the dishes, you can identify the flavor profile of a Vietnamese restaurant through some particular dishes. You order Pho to see how they make the Pho broth, the rice dish with grilled meat to see how they season their meat, and the Hu tieu kho to see how they mix their noodle sauce and their toppings, my mother also order their Bun bo Hue but I forgot to take photo of it. Their flavor profile is above average but less than good for the Pho and Bun bo Hue broths. Not enough aromatic flavor but then salty. The good thing is their grilled meat, but such a shame it’s not served with broken rice. Their hu tieu kho is above average but I have had much better Hu tieu kho before.
They do have great space and nice interior decor. We were seated quickly after arriving.
Overall I am glad we tried this place out to check it off the list, but I will not return if I ever come back to Vegas.
The soup is rich and full of beef flavor. And the rice noodles is tasty. Vibe is good. Price is around 13-15. Good place to have Pho in Vegas.
The service here is impeccable. Food came out faster than most “fast food” restaurants . The large beef pho was only $16.99, which is quite a deal. The salt and pepper squid was also top notch.
