Fantastic little honey hole of Vietnamese food. The Pho is a tremendous broth with good portions of meats, noodles and fixings. Family owned and run. Dad is in the kitchen and Mom takes orders, delivers food and keeps the dining area spotless. They have a duck soup on the menu now. Can't wait to go back and try it. I recommend and will return

My family and I regularly travel from San Tan just to enjoy the pho at this spot—it’s hands down the best I’ve found in Arizona! The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and authentic. However, they charge an extra $3.00 for all card transactions, so keep that in mind when deciding how to pay.  Basically they’re tipping themselves. That said, this place is usually busy, which is a testament to how great the food is.

Atmosphere is beautiful but they have a fish tank filled with water but no fish. Kinda sad 😔

Had the A1 appetizer and some BBQ Short Ribs. The food was really delicious. The vegetable egg rolls were very crispy and absolutely delicious. The BBQ pork spring rolls were OK, very heavy with the mint but otherwise good. The shrimp was also fantastic and very crunchy. The BBQ Short Ribs were fantastic, it was delicious and the meat was very tender. The pickled daikon with it was awesome as well. Great service, very friendly and fast.

Update 1 3 2025
I'm beyond upset. I've been going here for over 10 years. Ill never be back. The confusion and not even being busy. It's gone to shit. They used to be the spot. Stay far away from this place. The service is trash.

Update. 3 10 2024
Hands down favorite PHO on the east side. There's nothing to com0lain about this place. I've been comming here for years and I've been tonprob every PHO restaurant within 40 miles.

So we've been to 6 pho spots in the valley. This place smacks. Affordable, delicious, and huge bowls. Don't get the large get the regular! We had egg rolls, chicken pho, and meatballs w steak. They also give bottles of water when u ask for water. That's huge for me. Well be back forsure. Also open on Sundays. Only thing we didn't like was how dark it was inside and they could definitely paint and clean the place up a bit. They prob keep the lights low because of this. Brighten it up and it will be the #1 pho spot in AZ.

They are only open Thursday to Sunday. Phó was good. Coconut shrimp was really good. The customer service was okay. Old lady seemed to be a little rude at I entered and when taking my order. Overall okay experience and will probably be back
