"Everything is super delicious. Best things are the beef cubes (and I say this as someone who doesn't like meat that much), veggie nem, and the coffee with condensed milk at the bottom!"
"The grilled pork chop was good as well. very tender. The flavor was fantastic."
"Delicious food. I got pho which had very tasty broth."
"The bun is soft inside, crispy on the surface, and the ingredients were fresh and delicious."
"The Nem was filled with pork, shrimp, taro, jicama, glass noodle and mushroom, paired with a sweet fish sauce."
"The Bo Luc Lac is a teriyaki-glazed tender grilled beef cubes, over a bed of mixed greens salad with a side of crunchy thin taro fries."
Cons:
"The chicken was a little tough, rubbery to eat."
"Portions were ridiculously large, but we didn't really care for anything we ate."
"The laksa I ordered was .... meh."
"The pho soup was not very good. The meatballs had a very odd flavor."
"Their pho broth was full of fat and noodles were overcooked."
"Their fried rice was mushy and clearly overcooked."
"The red chicken curry was the worst of what we've had, but was still ok."
Service
Pros:
"Decent portions and attentive waitstaff."
"Quick, sweet and kind service."
"Fast and courteous service, good selection of food and a nice atmosphere overall."
"They allowed us to talk and take our time without rushing us out."
"The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating."
"Ordered delivery twice and they were very prompt."
"The staff were quick, efficient, and friendly as well!"
Cons:
"No one seats me leaving me to find my own seating."
"The waitress came back with the tip/change asking for more."
"I held out my hand to take my order and they just tossed it on the table and walked away."
"Service was poor and not a smile to be found."
"When I was given my food and drink order the woman behind the counter quickly sat the items down on the counter and turned her back on me immediately without a smile or simple thank you."
"Service was very slow. It's nearly empty here but we have given up on getting more to drink."
"The staff was nice, but it took them a little while to get my order, although it wasn't crowded at all."
Ambiance and Decor
Pros:
"The place has a wonderful warm inviting vibe."
"Ambiance was nice."
"The ambiance is relaxing. French music often plays in the background."

"A nice ambience and ample seating."
"The atmosphere was very welcoming."
"What a gorgeous spot this is, off of 88th and 2nd."
Cons:
"If you're looking for an authentic Vietnamese restaurant, this is not the place you should be looking at."
"The only cons to this place are if you do have to wait, the waiting area is VERY TINY."
"There is no inside seating, ONLY takeout option."
"You CANNOT sit inside here so don’t come expecting sit down, it’s take out only as of 10/24/23."
"Only thing is they don’t seem to wanna open up the dining room again."
"It’s very busy inside and a bit noisy because of the amount of people."
"The inside of the place is nothing but a bunch of chairs and tables on the floor."
Value
Pros:
"Prices are very reasonable."
"Yes, they are not the cheapest option, but when you get food that is so good, paying some more make sense."
"Good value for the food but they should figure out a way to prevent the pho noodles from sticking together."
"The amount of food was satisfying for its price."
"And if you order between 12-5 pm, you get an additional 10% off! Easy way to save 25%."
"Seeing the quantity of food that you receive is quite large, the prices are totally justified."
"The portions are large. While the prices aren't comparable to those in Chinatown, they're good value."
Cons:
"Prices are pretty high. Average chicken dishes over $17 a plate."
"Their prices have doubled since covid began."
"There was a tiny roach in my soup, disgusting."
"Last time I found nasty hairs in the food."
"The waitress came back with the tip/change asking for more."
"Oh it was 20.00 per person!!! With apps !"
"I don’t know if I’ll ever come back here because of the price, but the food is really good."
