Very warm and friendly staff that'll guide you in the right direction. Their beef was delectable and the prices are fair for how much food you get. I'll definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting some good Asian food. 8.7/10
Enjoyed a grilled beef bowl- absolutely delicious. Excellent portion for the price, delicious sauce and rice was perfectly cooked. Will absolutely be back again! The food was also cooked pretty quickly which i appreciate!
OMG !! Delicious!! Perfect portions awesome prices wonderful lovely service!!!
This is easily the best place to get pho in Gainesville. Large portions of delicious foods for good prices. The couple who owns the place often recognized me and were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Moved away recently and I'm missing their pho.
We ordered the beef pho (32 oz) and a pork bahn mi. Both were fantastic - by far better than other restaurants we've been to in Gainesville. The broth was savory (a lot of places can be sweet), the veggies were plentiful and crisp, and the meat for the bahn mi was well marinated and had a delicious bite of char flavor. The baguette was also well toasted and soft. We also had a Thai iced tea and Vietnamese coffee - both good but the coffee better (imo) than the tea. The total cost was between 20 - 30 dollars, which is fair considering how much food we got. I would highly recommend going here for delicious, authentic Vietnamese food.
It was normal and clean restaurant. I guess i will have to go another pho restaurant in Gainesville.
When I lived on UFs campus I would come here all the time. It's my favorite option on University Ave, and very affordable. My roommates and I went here the day we came back into town for fall semester because we missed it.
It's alright. Not bad, but definitely not as spectacular as the reviews would leave you to believe. The Pho stock is lacking the bone base that great Pho is known for, and the meat that comes with it is thinly sliced deli meat. If you are looking for thick meat or ox tail broth, this is not it. The pad thai was fine, but it was very bland and pretty dry compared to what it should be (obviously you can add more spice, but I mean that the peanut sauce that you might be expecting is basically non existent).I think that the high ratings are more due to the fact that this restaurant is located in the university district, and so the rating is inflated due to students who either don't know what really good Pho is, or who are comparing it to the other food available central to their campus. Compared to university food, it is surely 5 stars, however if you are looking for the best pho out there, this is not it. Lovely staff and very clean little spot though. The coffee was great and the eggrolls are solid.
Great place. The restaurant itself is cozy there is room for seating. The food is great and the staff are very kind.
I really wanted to give 5 stars cuz the service was so good and quick and convenient and polite. But the vegetarian pho just did not hit like I wanted it to. It was a bit bland. Everything else was great.
