We went in with high hopes when seeing some favorites on the menu. Unfortunately the deep fried tofu doesn't look like the picture on the menu, didn't come with garlic or have garlic flavor at all, and seemed to have some breading on it that was similar to chicken nuggets.The chicken bah mi lacked flavor and it was very hard to chew. The chicken was tough and very dry.The service did not make up for the food. There was only two other tables in the place, and one was a single dinner, while we had two and another table had four. We waited for someone to refill our waters and tea so that we could wash down the dry meal but no one came. Eventually we gave up on the food and left.

Without a doubt one of the worst Asian (Vietnamese/Chinese) food restaurants I've tried in Seattle. Noodles were overboiled and falling apart - complete mush. No flavor to the food - bland and insipid. No spice. I'll never eat there again.

Let me start by saying that this restaurant is a hole in the wall type of place, so I am reviewing it based on what it is, not through the lens of the next big restaurant on the Seattle scene.The food was delicious, hot, fast, and fresh. I was craving pho on a cooler day and stopped in. I couldn’t choose, so I went with the Saigon special pho, which was just all the types of beef - tendon, brisket, steak, meatball, and tripe. I don’t prefer tripe so I asked them to hold it and it came out perfectly. Occasionally in the past I’ve asked for the same and other restaurants have just given me steak and brisket and left out the other meats. I was pleased they left in the meatball and tendon (my favorite treat in pho).I also ordered the tapioca shrimp cake per another review’s suggestion. I’d never had them before but really like it. When I ordered they asked if it was okay that it would take extra time, I didn’t mind because that means it’s fresh. However, it did come after my pho, in case you’re looking for a pre-meal snack. I wasn’t really sure what to expect so I will leave a detailed description in case you’d like to try as well.The tapioca shrimp cakes are very chewy, almost like a long stuffed boba. The filling is a mix of shrimp, pork, and some seasonings, and it’s served with a side of that light colored thin sauce often served at Vietnamese restaurants (sorry, I don’t know the name). It’s also garnished with scallion and fried shallot (yum). My initial bite i didn’t like because I felt it was too fishy and the textures were a bit new but by the time I got to the second cake, I was loving it. I did add a little soy sauce which I think balanced it for my palette. I do encourage you to try if you haven’t before, I found it delightful. I also love chewy textures like boba and tendon, so do keep that in mind if you don’t.Pho broth was delicious and hot. Brisket and tendon was cooked well, meatball tasted good and standard compared to others I’ve had. The steak was slightly thicker than I prefer and it was well done, so I think they might cook it separately instead of pouring the broth over raw. In any case it was still a delicious bowl. Medium was a good amount for dinner and with the shrimp cakes it was more than enough. I also LOVED that they served with plenty of basil. I’m often served pho with decent broth, a lot of noodles, and minimal basil but this place had a very tasty rich broth, a good amount of meat, and enough basil for my taste (which I’d hard to do). I would come again and i probably will.Delicious!P.S. good chili oil at the table.Vegetarian options: I was surprised at how many choices they had. A full veg section on the menu, plus options for pho & appetizers. Options looked tasty but I didn’t try.

I've had many great experiences here. I always get my orders to go. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The food is always hot and oh so delicious. The minute you walk in, the aroma hits your senses and you know you're going to be happy.

3.5 rounded up to 4I got the medium sized steak pho and was satisfied with my bowl. The meat was tender and the broth was pretty flavorful. The medium size is good if you're not looking for a big meal. The restaurant has two floors so there should be enough seating whenever you come. Service is very fast and you pay at the counter at the end.

I had pho with steak and brisket, and it was pretty good. You must park on the street and it’s hard to find one though……

Great food, but some of the utensils were dirty, and some of the side garnishes/vegetables weren't fresh. The staff were great, though. Overall not a bad place; I'd go again.

First time here and my partner and I both loved the food! I think it's our new favorite date night restaurant.
