My boyfriend and I ordered the combination pho with spring rolls and it was honestly just okay. The broth wasn’t that flavorful and honestly the prices were too high for what you get. But it’s not bad at all, just not mind blowing which is okay. The service was very nice though and the food came out quick!

I can see why their wall is covered in awards for having the best Pho in town - it is incredible! They also have gluten free + vegan pho, so there is something for everyone, and the servers there are super sweet. This is my new go-to for Pho, 10/10 would recommend!

Quite bland compared to other pho spots. Chicken broth is ok but the chicken meat is low quality, bland, and kind of gross. Beef broth is not very good. I would recommend going elsewhere.

Tl;dr Good for a quick Vietnamese craving fix but not my number one choiceI love the ambiance of the restaurant. It has a lovely location tucked next to some dessert places and second hand thrift. Not only that, but the restaurant is truly decorated like a Viet restaurant and whenever I enter I feel like I'm back home.The pho and salted plum lemonade are solid. I've ordered these to go and the pho is really perfectly packaged and easy to eat wherever without having to grab anything else. I've also had their bun bo hue and this just wasn't as flavorful and strong as I tend to associate with this dish. Maybe I'm just used to my mom's rendition of this.Overall, good for pho and their spring rolls look amazing, don't think I'd come back for the bun bo hue.

Yesterday, I visited this restaurant based on positive recommendations I had read. Unfortunately, I did not take any photos as the service was quite challenging from the start. Despite being the first people to arrive, we were left waiting for a long time for our menu to be provided. While the food was decent, the main issue was the delay in receiving it. Also, our dishes arrived incomplete, and the last dish we ordered was forgotten entirely, despite everyone ordering together. We were patient and requested the from two servers twice. We watched as food from other tables was served while my friend was hungry.

This is fantastic pho, good herbs and meat, the broth is the best around, and the menu is very diverse. Their fried spring rolls are probably the best I've ever tasted, and the people here are very friendly.

I came here with some friends after craving some. This place was recommended by many for us. The food I ordered (#14 Pho) was quite good. In terms of the environment, I think that it was ok. However, no water was given to us so make sure to bring your own. Another thing I noticed was that some spoons were dirty.But if you are looking for a quick bite then this is an ok place to eat

I've passed this place multiple times while walking on Telegraph and the weather seemed great for pho, so I finally popped in. The waiter seemed to have a little trouble with English or maybe he was a bit shy, but after some slight confusions, I managed to order the Pho Dac Biet, Goi Cuon Roll, and a Strawberry Smoothie (pictured). The pho arrived quickly and had raw sliced steak, brisket, tendons, tripe, as I asked them to hold on the meatballs. The meat was of decent quality, with good texture, and the broth was flavorful but lacked complexity. It didn't have the rich beef umami or the subtle star anise/cinnamon/cilantro flavors that I often associate with pho.The shrimp rolls were also prompt to arrive and while the shrimp themselves weren't bad, they also weren't juicy/plump-level fresh -- felt like maybe they were in the freezer for a bit too long. They also forgot to bring my smoothie and I had to remind them when my meal was halfway done, since they didn't offer any other drinking water. The smoothie definitely had the taste of fresh strawberries but didn't have the complementary creamy flavor, so it was a bit too tart for me.All in all, I think the place has slightly below average flavor but is more expensive than average. The actual menu prices were more than those listed in the window, and I ended up dropping around $35 for my pho, shrimp rolls, and strawberry smoothie (and no water). If you're desperate for pho around Telegraph, then this is the only place available, but otherwise I would try finding somewhere else.
