We were craving for some pho as a hangover cure and found this place! We were seated quickly when we arrived, and the room was already full! I ordered their imperial rolls, and the large #1 House special beef soup noodle, which comes with sliced lean beef, brisket, beef tendon, beef tripe, beef balls, and a side plate of bean sprouts, basil, jalopieno, and lemon. The imperial rolls were just alright; they didn't have enough flavor, lacking the distinct white pepper taste. I would try their shrimp spring rolls next time! The combination pho tasted delicious, the broth was fragrant, the noodles were cooked to the right texture, and it came loaded with meats. The staff was attentive, the food came out quickly, and they served hot tea! On top of that, the prices were really reasonable. Highly recommended!
