The pho is authentic and served perfectly. This was the best bowl of vermicelli and shrimp I’ve had and I’ve eaten many across the country. The eggroll was crispy and shrimp had garlic and fried onion flavor adding richness to the whole bowl.

My girlfriend and I were looking for a good pho spot and stumbled upon this place. Best pho we have had in San Antonio! The Bahn Mi was delicious as well. Prices were pretty good for the absolutely monster portions we got. We will be back for sure!

First time trying this place and it wasn’t a disappointment! Absolutely loved the food as well as the staff. They are very friendly and fast. Prices are reasonable and the portions are huge. These bowls were the regular size and we didn’t finish a complete pho. Def a must try!

The grilled pork and fried spring rolls are excellent. The spring rolls are perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside—just how they should be. The staffs are friendly, helpful and very welcoming, which makes us want to come back again.

I order brisket pho to go and it was definitely the best one I had yet in San Antonio!! I must say you will need the siracha and hot oil to make it a 10/10 like mines. I did add my own hot chili oil that I purchased from DingHow IT WAS GREAT!!

This place is amazing! This is my 3rd time ordering from here, the quality has been very consistent. I have ordered the Bun- beef lemongrass bowl, pho house bowl and the pad Thai with beef. The food has been great every time and the customer service is excellent as well, as soon as you walk in, your greeted and food is served quickly, around 10-15mins, I would highly recommend it!

Consistency is key and this place has got it! San Antonio has many Vietnamese choices, but some places go on top of the list.To sum it up this place feels like a mom and pop! Service! Portions and Pricing! From the minor hospitality gestures of serving plenty of lettuce and fish sauce with your orders to the little extra details often overlooked. My vermicelli bowl was full of the little extras like carrots, cucumbers and green onion slithers. Spring rolls were super crispy, generously filled with its flavorful filling, accompanied by plenty of lettuce and cilantro. Third time here due to the fact that it isn’t near my side of town, but after recently searching and failing this will be one of my main spots. Worth the drive! Hands down top 3!

The food was good and the service was phenomenal. I applaud the staff of only 2 working a full restaurant. The food came out hot and flavorful. I ordered the tofu pad Thai and my co-worker ordered the tofu curry. We also ordered vegetable egg rolls and pork egg rolls. They were both perfectly crispy. I would definitely come back here again.
