    Met a friend for lunch on a random Thursday. We were hungry for pho, and we picked this place because it had good ratings on Google and was in an ideal location for meeting halfway. The Pho was delicious...I got Pho Thai. My friend ordered Special #2. They gave a TON of meat, noodles, and unlimited "side" items (bean sprouts, Thai basil, jalapeños, lime wedges, etc). It came out piping hot in a giant bowl of super delicious broth. It was heavenly and really hot the spot. While the pho was way above in quality and quantity, the establishment could use some help. They were short-staffed (there was a sign saying they were closing at 3:30 due to staffing issues) and table service was limited. We sat near the big window at the booths, and it was quite cold with a noticeable draft. The soup was really nice to help warm us up, but we had to keep our jackets on to be comfortable. Inside decor is lacking. I liked the nice plants they had, but otherwise it was pretty bare-bones. This would be my go-to for take out if I lived closer, but I don't think I would be dining in again. I might check out the other location in Geneva and hoping for the same quality of food with a better dining experience because that would be perfect!

    One of the best pho spots in the area! I got the steak and meatball pho, fresh spring roll, and Thai milk tea. The pho had a super clean and flavorful broth, and the meat was good. They have an extensive selection of milk and boba teas, so I definitely want to come back and try all of them!

    Great pho place close to the airport. We stopped here for a quick lunch before the flight and it was very well worth it. The lunch special with summer rolls + pho + iced tea was a great deal - the pho was authentic and tasty. Sure some more upscale places have a bit more herbs for you and may be a bit more fancy, but this here just was perfect for some quick pho cravings!

    Great food, a little expensive, but delish! Owner was helpful and I am excited to check out the new Roselle location opening soon!

    2nd day open when we went on 8th. We were on our way to Wendy's and quickly changed our minds when we saw it was finally open. We ordered a few items with the intention of splitting so we could try new things. I was with a coworker on our lunch hour and we were out in plenty of time to get back on time. We started out with the spring rolls served with a peanut sauce. It was so unique and all fresh ingredients. We then tried the Crispy Bao which kind of looked like a taco. It had beef on it with greens. The main dish we ordered was Grilled Pork Vermicelli. There was an egg roll cut up in one inch pieces, with a small salad l, all in this big, generous bowl. The textures of the pork and the salad, along with a homemade oil dressing with mild spices in it, was a perfect combination. The ingredients were so flavorful and beautifully plated. This will be a regular, weekly lunch visit for us. There are healthy choices and quality in this new restaurant. I've worked in Elk Grove since 1985 and this location has changed hands many many times. I think this restaurant has a chance of making it and being here a long time.

    Long story short, I wanted to give this small business a chance but I lost my respect for them. I had their dry noodle with pork many times but this time I bit into a small cut up skewer that was hidden in the meat (I had to push the meat to show the hidden skewer in the picture). I tried to talk to the manager but she already gave me attitude without telling her the whole story and was not apologetic so asked her for the owners number to talk to him instead. When I called, the owner deeply apologized but insisted to talk to the manger what the problem was so I can get discount. I told him many times that I did not want to talk nor receive food from his manager with unprofessional attitude. All I wanted was to share the problem I experienced with the manager/owner, a simple apology, learn from the past so this will never happen again to future customers and continue their business with a smile. I know how hard it is to operate small business but the key for any business it to learn from all the mistakes. Good luck.

    Good Vietnamese restaurant and very close to my house and work. Fresh spring roll has lettuce, pork, and shrimps and without basil (just the way i like it). The fried spring roll is delicious as usual. The pho soup had great flavor and not over powering and the noddle is cooked well. The boba tea has well-cooked boba, although I would try a different flavor next time.

    Stopped here on a whim I use to work for the old owners so I was interested in seeing the vast improvements on the dinning area. It is much more appealing to the eye. We ordered the spring rolls and the Beef Pho they were delicious. The service needs work men's room no toilet paper and our server never checked on us after food was brought to us.
