The food is very delicious and they also cater to small appetites as well as large appetites and anything in-between. They have a wide variety in their menu. I had their seafood Pho. It was good on a cool day like it was when I was there. I had the regular portion and it was a lot of food. The owners will be glad to kibbitz with you. They are very friendly. They provide good service and the guidance as to what to.order. For the quantity of portions that they provide, their prices are very reasonable.

The wait is actually ridiculous. I called in my order 15 minutes before showing up and was then asked to wait just a few minutes. That was over 30 minutes ago and I am still waiting. I have never heard of pho taking this long to make.

lol people are tripping, this place was great. (And I’ve lived in SF & LA. Grew up on Kevin’s noodle house).
- The taro milkshake and avocado milkshake were hella refreshing; and the boba was soft with good flavor. It also came with excess shake so it’s like I ordered two.
- I really enjoyed vermicelli: the beef had a great char on it just the way I grew up loving it; and the eggrolls were large and crunchy.
- The Pho has a good flavor. We ordered it with steak and flank. The menu set up looks different because you need to choose your meats, but it’s not that hard lol. Yeah you gotta ask for the side sauces and bean sprouts/cilantro, but it’s not that much of an issue to just ask. It’s obviously a small new family shop. All the bad reviews just come from prilvege. I always grew up knowing that the Viet places with bad American reviews about ‘service’ are usually offering the best food anyways lol.
We were also allowed to chill with our dog outside. And the girl working up front was super nice.

Very nice!
I had a bowl of Bun Thit Nuong, a.k.a. vermicelli noodles and grilled pork. The presentation is outstanding. I did not know the Freeport zone had Vietnamese food. This is legit. Their pork is marinated right, not like many places pack it with tons of sugar and artificial flavor. I also had the self-serve sauce and water. I love to do things by myself. I feel uncomfy to bother others.
