I'm very satisfied with my first haircut I got here today.My baber was professional and experienced. the place was very clean which I liked the most.Cause my name is MR CLEAN and cleanliness is everything for me.This is chosen barbershop now.You all should check it out whenever you visit tacoma WA.

Pretty good, the side vegetables were fresh and the pho was delicious. I'd come back but to compete with other top tier pho places. The broth could use a little less salt and be more hot so that the tripe gets cooked in the broth better. Almost a 5 for me.

10/10 would recommend! I have never had better pho in my life! Their menu is so big with so many options, I could go here 100 times and get something new everytime.For a family of 3 adults and 1 toddler, we all got boba, pho, rice and chicken and it costs less than $80!! So worth it.

Amazing community ! Love their food it’s cooked to order ! ?? amazing customer service !

I ordered pot stickers and shrimp spring rolls off doordash. The potstickers are so over crooked and I’m not even joking when I say they literally put two squirts of sweet chili sauce in a dipping cup.. pot stickers are usually served with soy sauce or so i thought?They also completely watered down the peanut sauce for the spring rolls. Super disappointed I was excited for the tangy-ness of the peanut sauce.:-(

Ordered at 1:30 pm for 5:00 pm pick up. The restaurant forgot to cook our fried garlic chicken. Paid $66.00 for 30 pieces. They then took 10 minutes to get the order ready. When we got home, chicken was cold and half of the order were OLD fried chicken. Left overs. How can you fry chicken in 10 minutes. Very hard and dried chicken. Not going back!!

So first off they didn't have a working card reader, and the roof was leaking in the dining area without a wet floor sign. We sat there for five minutes before a menu was brought out. They brought the two meals out individually throughout a 40 min wait. Then to top it off they forgot my son's meal. The food was also sub par. The cleanliness was also poor. Won't be surprised if we end up with food poisoning after this one!

If you're looking for great BBQ beef, this is a place to go. I ordered the crispy noodles with BBQ Beef and everything was cooked perfectly. The vegetables were cooked well-not soggy or undercooked. Friendly server too. Will be coming back for sure!

Management appears to have changed. This used to be my favorite place for pho. Good portions and fresh vegetables. Friendly staff. But everything here is different now. No napkins at the table, nor were they handed to us when we sat down. The sprouts and the basil were wilted and mushy. We asked for another set of the sprouts. Same thing happened even though we were told they were from a new bag. The portion became ridiculously small for the price. I had to pull out all of my cash to pay because they said they have a problem with their card system. Why didn’t they tell us when we ordered?

I thought I had already reviewed this place... but I'm correcting that oversight right now. This is my favorite pho restaurant. Their broth is freaking amazing and the staff are wonderful. I also want to mention their garlic prawns and calamari, because they are a definite must. Honestly I've had so many things on the menu and never been disappointed. They were recently closed for a short time, and my daughter and I were so devastated. But they have reopened and better than ever.
