The best Pho in Rochester! The House vermicelli and banh mi was also pretty good! I had the Kapoon and Thai curry in the past and recommend it too! More

Great pho. Beef in the pho was a bit dry, and the spring roll wrapping was a bit hard to chew. Otherwise yummy.

The best pad thai and pho spot in Rochester. I have gone here multiple times and have tried different items, but the pad thai and pho are by far the best items. The fresh spring rolls are also a good appetizer. I would definitely recommend to anyone in the area. More

Ordered a takeout, it was fast, 10 min top. I got a brisket pho and a house Banh mi. The pho a bit saltier than I would like but the broth is good. The banh mi pate was good, the pickled veggie was also a good add on, very full. I will come back for the pho and banh mi

Great value, friendly staff, highly recommended. Fresh ingredients that are very well prepared. I've gotten the crunchy noodles and fruit smoothy a couple times and always been satisfied. Thai tea shake was really tasty as well.

Really good food. That simple. I’m from Toronto where I believe has the greatest food. But this Pho spot is not bad. Really tasty and the prices are fair. We came here twice for dinner since even the kids loved it so much. Highly recommended.

Decent place for Asia food. I got here around 6pm on Monday to order for take out. The restaurant was almost half full and 3 staffs running around taking orders and delivery food. The inside of the restaurant may need more light since it feels dark. I got special Pho. It took about 10 minutes for my food to be ready. I enjoy all the beef. They were soft. The broth and noodles were alright. Wish I had more Thai basil in the vegetable bag, I got 2 leaves. Will be back here sometime to try other food. Staffs are friendly

I've been coming here since I was 12. There isn't a single bad thing on the menu. Would rate 15/10 if they brought back the Extra Large bowls again!

I dropped in with friends and ordered the vegetarian pho. It hit the spot. The broth was rich and soothing, with just the right mix of veggies to keep it hearty. The vibe was easygoing, perfect for catching up without rushing. Definitely a good stop when you want something warm, simple, and satisfying.

Food is good however portion sizes are grossly inconsistent. Ordered 2 bowls of brisket pho. One bowl contained significantly more food than the other one. Placed both on a food scale for comparison. See pics. Please do better with being more consistent with portion sizing. More

The food is great and wonderful! However, if you order takeout, they love to add things and up charge you like I’ve had happen to me and my Mom multiple times. So double check your receipts when you pay next time you order takeout. More

Dropped in for some takeout lunch. Got the spring rolls, fried chicken and house vermicelli plate. Spring rolls and dipping sauce were delicious. Fried chicken and sauce was also delicious. The house vermicelli plate did not have enough sauce provided to coat all of the noodles.

Very yummy place to get pho. They have great gluten free (celiac) options. I get the brisket steak pho with rice noodles. As far as I know the hoisen sauce is not GF so you just can’t eat the sauce but the pho is delicious :) staff was friendly and helped to answer my GF questions.
