    Get there early, like 5:30, to avoid the wait. Still worth it though even if you end up in line.

    Friendly staff! Kid friendly... No kids menu, but can accommodate with the ala cart items.

    I think there has been a change in ownership. The quality of pho was markedly less than in previous years 

    Any vermiceli rice dish is great and the 184 pork stir fry is beyond good. This place is always packed! So be patient.

    This is some of the most solid pho I've had! I'm honorary FOB (fresh off the boat) so I know what I speak.

    Don't overlook the banh mi, my personal favorite is the 74, the 47 will satisfy most

    The 24 is good. The pork in the 23 tastes a bit weird.

    I want to swim in all of their pho, but I think it's a health code violation.

    I know their specialty is Pho, but they can sure throw down a mean beef sandwich and mango bubble.
