This is my no.1 go to Vietnamese restaurant that I go pretty much every week. Their vegan pho with soy protein or tofu and summer roll is my go to. Seriously the best I’ve ever had!! Love this cozy spot. The staff and owner are all so nice. I’ve ran into friends there too. Def a local community gem.

Close to the hotel we were staying at, randomly walked by & noticed their pho banner. Staff so friendly, food came out fast & presentation was perfect! My fiancé said best pho he’s had :-)
