    House pho was Delicious . Fried dumplings were eehh, ok. Mango Boboa tea was so good. Not too sweet, not water down or too liquidy either.

    Best Pho in the area! Perfect for a rainy day! I've been searching for awesome pho in the area and I found it. During the cooler, rainy months this is my go-to. This has to be my fave restaurant. Although I usually get take-out, I'll occasionally eat in. As soon as you open the door, you'll fall in love. The smells will tickle your nose and make you want to order everything off the menu. The dim lighting and family atmosphere is engaging. They are always nice and attentive (but not pushy).

    Im not usually too fond of going to many asian specific restaurants except for the regular chinese buffets. But I decided to take a chance at the Little Saigon Vietnamese restaurant in Orange Park. As you enter, you seat yourself down at a table (my favorite spot is right by the fish tank). You are greeted by a server that brings you a menu to browse which also includes bubble tea (boba) drinks. They also have your average coke products. Their main fare is pho served fresh in soup broth with noodles. They also provide a full plate of veggies and mint for garnish. The serving size for these are HUUUGE, a small is pretty filling for one and a large can be shared for two. My favorite thing to order is their Mongolian chicken with fried rice. For lunch this only runs for $6.49 (plus $2 for fried rice which makes it $8.49) and includes a spring roll. everything is made to order and fresh yet somehow their service is fairly quick. the portion is also HUUUGE, I usually have leftovers. Our order of a small bowl of chicken pho and my mongolian chicken only took about 7-9 minutes after ordering. All in all, 9/10 experience and great food. Their decor is pretty humble and it seems to be run by very nice people. Will definitely be back for more.

    The first time I came here I was hooked! But the second time was very disappointing. There were flies everywhere and it made me not want to finish my food. The 3rd time was bcuz someone special basically asked me to come evntho I didn't want to. This time the flies were back again and the food that I ordered tasted weird and had no flavor.. Will not be coming back any time soon or ever!

    Food was hot and plentiful. Mostly Asians were at the other tables, we figured this was a good sign. I had chicken with fried noodles and my husband had pork dry bowl. His pork was a little dry but otherwise he said it was delicious. While the tables and the sauce containers were spotless, the place looked like it could benefit from a thorough cleaning. When we came in, there was only one table full and when we left, the place was full. We certainly enjoyed it more that going to a chain restaurant, which was our other option.

    Da pho doh. This is as close to perfect as I can imagine. I just moved from the Houston area and the Asian population makes the cuisine top notch. I haven't found much of any Asian food I actually love in Jacksonville but this place is number one so far. Its amazing and fresh and not overly priced.

    Little Saigon Café is a little gem hidden in Orange Park. Good food and nice staff was my experience there. The service was fast, which is something I saw in at least one other review. My boba tea was yummy, I got a taro and I had (and still do have) enough steak and meatball pho for at least 3 meals. The price was on point at under 15 dollars for both. I recommend this restaurant.

  • ALex W.

    Their pho is ridiculously flavorful. The selection is great, the staff is friendly and I will absolutely be making repeat trips here. All around a great place to eat and I've never left disappointed

    What to eat? Pho!! We almost didn't get a chance to try this place. They closed at 9pm, we got there at 8:45 (we didn't know). we felt like assholes, but they were nice, seated us, we got our drink and food orders all quickly. No evil stares. No audible annoyed comments.. But seriously on a Friday night... Consider closing like 9:30 or 10?.. Or after the clubs/bars are closed ? ;) for those who don't know.. Pho is an amazing lunch and dinner food but also a hit the spot drunk and hangover grub. We started with the shrimp spring rolls with peanut sauce and pork dumplings. I learned earlier in the day not to order spring rolls at chain Asian places (ahem PF rhymes with bangs) so getting some authentic spring rolls with a generous amount of shrimp and amazing peanut sauce was A++. I ordered their "small" everything pho bowl. "Small" was huge and delicious. The soup was flavorful, there was a good amount of meat in the bowls, and noodles were yummers. Very satisfied with the pho. The chicken curry was also a good dish. My fiance describes as flavorful, creamy, but not fatty. Overall, I would definitely visit Little Saigon Cafe for a hot, refreshing, filling bowl of pho my next trip to 904.

    The food tasted kinda awful and the service wasn't anything to impress me by honestly

  • Charles C.

    Holy pho this place is neat. It's a very casual restaurant. More like a lunch kitchen, but dang they make great food and fast. I had the chicken Pho, and I gotta say it's on par with any Vietnamese style food I've ever eaten. The service is great and the dining floor is really clean and put together. In an area that I would say lacks in fine and/or original cuisine, this place stands out as something different and that is something to not only desire but also appreciate.

    This place is AWESOME! The food comes out hot and the service is great! We didn't try the smoothies but there will definitely be a next time.

    This place has the best food. My favorite is the curry. The service is great. Very attentive.

  • MC J.

    This is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in the Jax area. The pho is very flavorful-- I got the House Special loaded with fresh beef, noodles and delicious broth!! My daughters enjoyed the chicken fried rice and split one order quite comfortably. I got a blended boba tea which was also delicious. The dining area was a little small, but clean. The wait staff was very attentive and friendly. The prices were very reasonable--- I'm definitely coming back again to try the other dishes!

  • Jean L.

    The best beef Pho in Jacksonville. I tried other places but no other Pho's broth compares to little Saigon.

    (4)
  • Tommy T.

    I've been here twice since I got to Jacksonville two weeks ago. The pho is delicious, the broth has the perfect taste and consistency; not too bland yet not too strong and the veggies are super fresh! The staff is super awesome! Friendly and very tentative. I could go back everyday for month and not get tired of this place! ... And I'm not biased towards this place just because I'm Vietnamese, I'm just saying. Haha. I've known plenty of Vietnamese restaurants that are disgusting and that I would never go back to, this establishment is surely not one of them!

  • Kat V.

    Boba tea is great! Their Pho is yummy maybe a little salty sometimes, but overall very comfortable in the cozy cafe and they are nice. I don't recommend their dishes too much they aren't that flavorful.. Like the Mongolian chicken

  • Sue T.

    This is one of my new favorites. After reading good reviews I decided to try it out. They are so fast and nice. The food is good. I was excited they had Thai & Boba teas and tried both, but they weren't that great when I tried them compared to other places I usually get them. The Vietnamese iced coffee is good, depending on who makes it. Can be too strong/sweet but that's easy to dilute :) I love the Singapore curry, and their pho is very yummy. I think is the only place to get Pho in OP, but I may be mistaken. I'd bump it to 5 stars if the drinks were better.

    Now THIS is what I'm talkin' 'bout. Only gotten takeout here, believe it or not. As an Orange Park native, I know just about as well as any other how pronounced the black hole quality of the town... err, city... whatever the heck it is (lol), and naturally it's where chain restaurants come to die. However, Little Saigon Cafe provides more than enough culinary redemption for this veritable soul-trap of a bedroom community. OMGTHEIRPHOISSOGOODICAN'TSTANDIT. Seriously. The broth has the richest flavor of all the pho I have tried in Jax. I mean, it doesn't really need any seasoning. At all. I like spicy, so I'll eat half of it without condiments before adding them, because the base is that delicious. Mmmmmhhmhmhmmm. They have small and large sizes (large only for takeout.) When I first ordered from here, I was skeptical about the to-go pho experience, as I am with sushi takeout naturally (raw meat riding beside me in styrofoam? Yeehh uh idk). While sushi is a different story, all you need is a microwave and your favorite soup bowl for a great to-go pho experience! The boba smoothies are yummy as well! Great selection of flavors. My favorite is avocado. They have pearls/boba/bubbles (whatever you prefer to call them), as well as both coconut and fruit jellies! :3 The staff are nice. I've only gotten takeout so I can't attest to the level of service, but the restaurant has been in this sketchy locale (don't be deterred) for so long without closing, I can safely assume the service is just as good as the food!

    I decided to go here because it was closer than metro diner. I got the Saigon curry (mild) with beef. I got it to go and ate it @ 7 minutes later. The noodles were well cooked and when I opened the box the presentation was beautiful. When I took my first bite I was surprisingly disappointed. They look so flavorful and delicious but they tasted very bland. I assumed that the brown coloring on the noodles came from a sauce and was bursting with flavor. Sadly I was wrong. Four bites later, I am throwing out the rest. I won't be returning.

  • John L.

    I've been here on several occasions and each time the meat is too tough, and the broth is way too salty.

    My first time there I experienced a roach crawling on the wall. Now the word around Jacksonville is that they have a rat problem too...

    Little Saigon is my Go-To restaurant. Go-to when I'm starving, go-to when it is cold outside and I need a soup, go-to for lunch dates and to introduce "pho newbie" friends, go-to when I need my pho fix & go-to when I'm hungover. Yes, I said it. Pho is the ULTIMATE hang over food. I am here at least once a week. But NOT because I am always hungover!! I usually order the fresh spring rolls with the peanut sauce for an appetizer and #10 Pho with beef steak & meatballs. I never have to wait long for my appetizer and meal to come out. The presentation of the food is always enticing and the flavors are delicious. Taro boba is usually ordered after our meal and it always tastes great and good texture. Good texture? Yes. A weird thing to point out but I have had some awful tasting, super chalky texture boba before. I have also tried the strawberry and the coconut flavors which are also tasty but my favorite is still Taro. The customer service is top notch here. The servers are always attentive and have such positive attitudes. The restaurant seems clean and my daughter loves to sit by the fish tank. The prices are very reasonable and they even offer a lunch menu. I have introduced many friends to Little Saigon and they have since become addicted to this place. Heck, they love it so much some of them go more than I do!

  • Maria H.

    Just a quick updated review. Went in for the curry because my husband had it last time and it was delicious, so naturally I went back to get some myself and was NOT disappointed! I will recommend getting the beef curry! Sometimes their bubble tea is a hit or miss, either the bubbles aren't cooked enough or the drink itself is FAR too sweet. Other than that, still one of my favorite restaurants in OP.

  • Erikka N.

    Great little hidden spot. They have a mix of Chinese, Vietnamese, and Thai. The lunch special is a pretty good deal. The boba tea isn't bad either. Definitely give this place a try.

  • Chelsea S.

    What a nice last minute surprise. Jo and I were in the neighborhood, starving as usual (haha). So we turned to yelp as we normally do an found this awesome little hole in the wall. They have a pretty extensive amount of items on their menu. We started out with an order of spring rolls. They were crunchy an delicious as you would hope to have in a spring roll. An we moved on to our lunch specials an our 2 different bowls of PHO they were both excellent especially with the peanut sauce. Now what I need to bring up what we didn't order. They have some type of smoothie with those candy straws, The entire time people were coming in an out of the place just to pick up a smoothie. We were to stuffed to eat anything else so maybe next time we go in the area, will give it a try.

    I loved the Boba Thai tea. I even ordered Thai food and it was good. The fresh spring rolls are to die for and 71 was awesome.

  • Yancy F.

    I've been to other places that served pho and so far this place has the best. The broth is not bland so I didn't have to add anything to give it some flavor. I like my pho spicy so sriracha was the only extra. I highly recommend this place.

    I've been missing out. This place is like 10 minutes from my house and only recently I've found the time and opportunity to venture to Little Saigon Cafe. It's been in my bookmarks for months, and I've heard such great things about the food (mom swears by this place), so I finally cleared my schedule this past Sunday and, along with family friend in tow, mom and I made our way to her favorite Pho joint. Atmosphere: Divey, but that quaint, family-owned, welcoming vibe divey. 6...maybe 7 tables at the most, but we got there between 2 and 3 in the afternoon, so there wasn't a wait. Food: For starters, mom ordered the spring roll and I ordered the fried dumplings. The two spring rolls (with peanut sauce on the side) were not only huge, but super-fresh, according to mom. She says "They don't fill with too much noodles...alot of shrimp and veggies...I like it!" She gets these everytime she comes here, so that says alot. As for my fried dumplings (pork with veggies), they give you 4 and they're also super-fresh and hot. I don't know what's in the "brown sauce" besides soy sauce, but whatever it is, it's great to dip the dumplings in. The seasoning in the meat mixture is quite tasty as well. Entree: Me: Pho with Beef Steak and Meatballs (#11) Mom: House Deluxe Pho (#14 with Rare Beef Steak, Flank, Brisket and Tripe) Family Friend: Pan Fried Noodles with Chicken Honestly...it was one of the BEST bowls of Pho-Shizzle goodness I've ever had. Very very VERY on par with the Pho joints back in Hawaii...and I've had some PHO. The broth was truly legit...not too subtle, not too overpowering. Juuuuuuuust the right kick to complement all the tasty meats and veggies. The meat alone was plentiful...they aren't scrooges, thankfully, and the noodles were equally delicious. Mom totally scarfed down her soup (after she dumped a whole plate of bean sprouts and cilantro in), and when she was full and satisfied, there was plenty left over to take home for that evening's dinner. Family friend couldn't get enough of her dish, considering it was made with her favorite noodles, chow fun, which are the wide variety. "It's hard to find places that serve really good chow fun!" she exclaimed excitedly. I got to sample some of it and she was right...lots of chicken, and the sauce wasn't salty or greasy as you would often find elsewhere. Service: From the second we walked in we were greeted like family and treated as such throughout the meal. The drink refills were plentiful and the smiles were welcoming. Can't ask for much more than that. In Closing: This is a family-owned local business, and if you're craving THE STUFF when it come to Asian fare (they have ALOTTTTT more than just Pho and noodle dishes to tempt your tastebuds), I'd say this is the place to try....and...like many others I HAVE to agree...hands down Little Saigon Cafe is better than Bowl of Pho. :)

  • Angela D.

    Wonderful. I have always relied on Bowl of Pho for good soup but Little Saigon was so good without a 30 mile drive round trip!!! The place was very clean, the server was helpful and attentive and the food was great. We shared the crab Rangoon, house deluxe vermicelli and pho. All were wonderful and the entrees were large. The two of us couldn't finish it all. The Pho broth was full of flavor and the vermicelli was so fresh and crisp with lots of herbs. Very refreshing!!!!

    the best pho in jacksonville & for the best price! great service, food and atmosphere. its a hidden gem on Wells Road. My wife and I are regulars here, we love it and will continue coming anytime we're in the mood for Pho. Pho'k that's delicious!!

    My favorite pho place in all of jax and believe me I've tried a lot. The bobas r delicious. Spring rolls r huge. I haven't had anything here that I didn't enjoy. They r closed Mondays so be aware bc we drove from jax airport area to have it to be bumming when we pulled up.

    The pho is magnificent. It's 1300 hours, and I'm the only round eye in this packed, family owned, family run restaurant. There are a variety of great looking dishes coming from the kitchen, and lots of slurping and ummmm noises from surrounding tables.

  • Keira S.

    I made a startling discovery. We went to Little Saigon Cafe last week for lunch and it was really good. I was in the mood for their Beef Steak Pho and decided to order soup to go. I picked the order up and noticed that they kept the broth separate from everything else. However, that was nothing compared to what I found when I got home. I opened the styrofoam container to find that the steak was completely raw (and still slightly frozen) and I had to reheat the noodles since they were all clumped together and cold. Though this place is great when you are eating at the restaurant, I will seriously rethink ordering the Pho to-go again. E-coli anyone?

  • Chris C.

    I love this place, its clean, cheerfully staffed ( if a bit flustered during busy times) and has a nicely varied menu with a few new items changed in out fairly often. On this visit I had the chicken Pho, which was simply flavored and excellent. We also had the Crab Rangoon, nicely flavored with green onion, the shrimp spring rolls which were as usual huge and fresh, with a better than standard peanut sauce on the side, steamed dumpling which were served beautifully on sparkling new white china. We also had a vegetarian curry dish which was spicy and aromatic and really beautiful in color. Along side was both iced and hot Vietnamese coffee with sweetened condensed milk. The iced was amazing, the hot a little on the bitter side. As always we left with full stomachs and big smiles. Thanks again Little Saigon!

    It's great that there's a Vietnamese restaurant of such quality hidden within 'lil 'ol Orange Park; a very welcome surprise. It's a pleasant place and between the understated feng shui of the restaurant and the smiling, friendly countenances of the wonderful folks who work here, you're made to feel nothing short of terrific the very moment you enter their doors. As for the food, I'm pretty well versed on Vietnamese food, having eaten it all around the country and I'd rate these guys a solid 8 out of 10. The pho broth is not quite as complex as a lot I've had in various places but that is certainly not to say that it is bland! Actually, it's very good and quite a respectable representation of the dish. It always comes out loaded with delicious, perfectly executed rice noodles and the amount of meats they include is just spot-on perfect too. In the unlikely event you run out of the tasty broth before completely finishing your dish as my last dining companion did, they'll gladly offer to replenish your bowl with some more, unsolicited. That's a very classy touch I've never experienced at any other Vietnamese restaurant before. The bun dishes are also quite good and while the Yelper from California in another review disliked his pork, it's always tasted pretty darned good to me. The #1 fried Vietnamese Egg Rolls (Cha Gio) are respectable but the #2 cold Spring Rolls (Goi Cuon [I've always known these as "Summer Rolls]) are some of the very best I've ever had. They look the same as any other I've ever had but the taste and texture of these is simply out of this world! I wish I knew what they were doing to them. All in all, if you're craving some very tasty and filling Asian food that's more off the beaten track than your local sushi joint or Chinese place, you should definitely come here. With Jacksonville winter approaching and a nip starting to be felt in the air, there's certainly nothing better than a huge (and they ARE huge here!), nourishing bowl of pho to take the chill off.

  • Ruby H.

    Great service! It was busy when we got there which was a good sign already. I am originally from Toronto and I have ate at many pho restaurants. And this place is definitely on par. I actually think they are better than the infamous Bowl of Pho on Old Baymeadows.. Anyways. I ordered the BBQ and shrimp spring roll Vermicelli dish; WOW. Lots of pork and spring rolls which is rare! Usually they load up on the Vermicelli.. But they definitely had a good ratio going on. My bf ordered the seafood egg noodle soup cause he's sick. And he really enjoyed it. The soup is like a remedy! :) Am definitely gonna come back even tho I live in the San Marco area!

  • Nora B.

    I am finding that hole in the wall joints are amazing and are a breath of fresh air for Orange Park. I never would have expected such amazing, quality food to come out of this place. But it does. The prices are right, the service is quick and friendly. My only complaint and the only reason I have 4 stars versus 5 is I haaaate cilantro and ask the server for no cilantro each time I go but it has come out with it every time. Not a big deal and it by no means deters me from coming back.

  • Rachel W.

    My new favorite restaurant! The food is delicious and authentic! I ordered crispy egg noodles with gravy which is not on the menu and they tasted like ones i had in thailand! My mom got pho and it was also very delicious! The workers are nice and it was crowded so that means something good!

  • Old Z.

    Very nice. Love my Vietnamese. The food was up to par and the portions and price were great. Had the Pho with shrimp and it was good. Wish I had gotten the spring roles because those are my favorite, and not sure when I will be able to return since I'm over 2000 miles away. If I return definitely will be back.

    Went to Little Saigon for lunch today, and was was not surprised by the good reviews. The location is a not so good; but the place is clean and the staff friendly. The average lunch special was $6.95 and the selection was pretty good(apx 15 specials). The dining room is sort of small but tasteful decorated. I wanted to try more than one thing, so I ordered a small Pho and a lunch special. I opted for the spring rolll and it was out within a MIn., hot and fresh served with a good dipping sauce. The Pho came out hot, with the Beef that I chose, and tons of fresh herbs and bean sprouts. I had never tried this before, had seen it on Anthonny Bourdain and it had peeked my interest. I liked it; however it is not my favorite. The presentation was good, and would make a great food when sick. The mongolian chicken lunch special was good not great! I think this was a good experience and will be back, but it is not my new favorite!

    Very bland soup; never give u tendon when u order the house special.. Been there 4 times because its literally one block away and I always hope that they would be able to cure my craving but I always leave disappointed... After the 4th time I promised to never go back.. And I haven't.. Thankfully I found a place better down blending towards duval!

    Yummy pho, came here after a night out and definitely a great cure for a hangover. The pho was huge and came with alot of meat and noodles. Only issue I had was the spring rolls only came with shrimp and no pork

  • Brock H.

    I've been here twice, both times take-out and both time the food was great. The reviews drew me here, the food and service will bring me back! I got yellow curry chicken both times (I got spicy, wife got mild) and we were both very happy. The white rice was great and vegetables very tasty. We got an order of spring rolls as well, and the peanut sauce went well with it. Our entire order was $28, so that's not bad - especially since it would be about $40 from Thai Garden. Food was hot and ready in 15 minutes - in and out quickly! I'm looking forward to trying their other dishes.

    Background: I'm from Hawaii, the land of tons of Asians and lots of good Pho. I was at NAS Jacksonville for school, and had one of my Pho cravings. I asked around and heard this was the best Pho place in the area. The service was decent. The girl waiting on my was friendly and made sure my water glass stayed full. (I drink lots of water.) The soup had some noodles I'm not used to, but the broth was OK, if not as flavorful as the broths I'm used to at home. I don't doubt that this is the best place in the area, I can just find much better stuff back home. Give it a try!

    I went hear for dinner today. The waitress said that they've only been open for a month. It's located in a strip mall shopping center. The service was great. They were kind and always made sure our drinks were filled and asked if we were doing ok. The prices are reasonable. Dinner for 3 people was approximately $50 with tip. Here's what we ordered: -spring rolls (2 for $4) - this was eaten up too quickly to be photographed. delicious and fresh ingredients. the peanut dipping sauce is tasty -crispy soft shelled crab (1 crab for $5) - this is split in half and served with sweet chili sauce. nothing too spectacular or memorable. just tasted fried. -pho #10 rare beef steak (small for $6) - I didn't order this but I had to taste it! The broth was seasoned just right! Limes, basil, sliced jalepeno, and bean sprouts on the side. -#26 cubed steak & rice ($7) - Also, did not order but had to stick my fork in their plate to give it a taste! I thought it was a bit on the salty side but other than that it was good. Small bits of cubed steak with chopped onions and peppers. -lemon grass mussels ($9) - this I did order! Lots of scallions and I think the ginger overpowered the flavor of the lemongrass. The lemongrass flavor was almost nonexistent. The mussels were cooked just right and overall I enjoyed this dish. -avocado shake with tapioca pearls ($3.50) - YUMMY! I definitely recommend trying this one! -papaya shake with tapioca pearls ($3.50)

  • Joshua O.

    Being from northern Virginia where Pho can be found on every street corner, I believe I have the ability to distinguish between good pho and outstanding pho. As well, between bad and wretched. The key, I feel starts with the broth, before I add any herbs or sauces, I taste the broth. It should be flavorful, hopefully delectable, but there should be a flavor, rather than warm colored water. Then the meat which I have chosen is considered, should be what the menu says, chicken for chicken, beef for beef, if you went with the meatball variant, it can get interesting, but no cat for chicken or beef, you will notice a difference if you cut it open. Last the fresh ingredients, sprigs of basil and cilantro, bean sprouts, lime wedges and jalapeños, should all be exactly that, fresh. Little Saigon was great pho, I was craving it when I consumed so I may be a little biased, but everything was savory, fresh and delicious. The limeade was awesome and the coconut juice was very fresh. The rest of the menu, which I will try, looked amazing. Based on the pho and the other plates I saw while I was there I don't feel I will ever be disappointed. Prices where very good for quality, returning was fresh and inexpensive. Staff was super friendly and inviting, establishment was small, quaint and clean. Great little hidden jewel.

    Don't bother with this place if you want decent Vietnamese food! Ordered the BBQ pork and spring roll vermicelli and singapore curry stir-fry and both are horrible. The so-called BBQ pork was tasteless, looked greasy and worse of all it was unseasoned and DEEP FRIED, not marinated and grilled like it supposed to be. The spring rolls is stuffed full of cabbage with very little meat that tasted like those nasty fried rolls at cheap chinese take-out joints, no self-respecting Vietnamese restaurants would serve this garbage and called it Vietnamese food, rather fitting since the owner isn't Vietnamese. The meat and shrimp in the singapore curry stir-fry also tasted rather suspect. Overall, a waste of money.

    Had the chicken pho -- the broth was very nice and the noodles picked up the taste of the broth nicely. I would have given 5-stars but they were out of bean sprouts which is a must with Pho -- and it was lunch on a Thursday. The diningroom was typical for a Pho/Chinses restaurant. I would go back again when in the area.

    PHO!!! Spring Roll and Pho! yummy! The Bun was good too. This place has lunch specials that are very very affordable. It's always a good sign to go to an Asian eatery and see Asian's eating the food there. This is one of them places.

    YES! My wife and I were extremely satisfied, even though they mixed up the appetizer (they took back the egg rolls and brought back the spring rolls - wasn't on the bill!!!) We both ordered PHO and shared chicken fried rice. OMG! Was so good!!! Our 2 year old daughter loved the soup, too! Our friends ordered chinese style noodle dishes and they loved it all! Their 3 yr old daughter was downing the yummy noodles, too! We will definitely go back.

    Good place to eat a quick lunch, not too many items on the menu, ok pho noodles, wife had the noodle curry with shrimp no taste just a lot of curry, good prices. Really nice service. I'll go back there eventually.

    Love this spot. I always get the Pho w/rare meat, which they have recently began serving on a side dish instead of in the broth (which ended up cooking the meat welldone) and I love that. My husb is a huge fan of the Mongolian Beef, which I also think is delicious. Small place, friendly owner, quick service.

    I'm from the dc area and was looking for a good pho place near NAS Jax. My yelpers didn't let me down. Pho broth was good and flavorful. Just as good as the places we have at home (and there are a lot). I got the rare steak pho. I would def go back

    I had high hopes after reading the first review because this place is also close to home. I usually go to Bay meadows for Vietnamese. It was a hot day so I didn't try the pho. Instead I tried my hot-day favorite, bun thit nun (cold vermicelli noodles with barbecued pork and egg rolls) . I'm originally from So Cal and even the crappier Vietnamese joints there do it better than this place. The pork was tough and bland. They put iceberg lettuce in too. I've never had that in it and I didn't care for it. The egg rols were off too. I was bummed. It's tough, once you've had Vietnamese in Santa Ana, CA everything else pales in comparison. Not looking good so far. I'll go back and try the pho and do a 2nd review. Also no bahn mi! I'd kill for a decent bahn mi right now.

    Wonderful. The service was fast and very friendly. Our waitress was very helpful and willing to make the food exactly like we wanted it without any fuss over small changes (like less cilantro). Food was fabulous, very satisfying enjoyable. We have placed this restaurant on our list of favorites.
