The food is definitely good, however, the portions are a little meager as if the customers wouldn't notice, otherwise the food is good and the Pho has pure flavorful broth which makes me want to come...

Exceptional food in a wonderfully friendly environment. Every bite is a taste sensation. What a wonderful family restaurant with Chef Steve at the helm. An oasis in a sea of El Sobrante fast foods....

Poppy was our server. She was a young, friendly face that was just what we wanted. Our order was taken right away, but it did take a while for the appetizer to arrive. That appetizer, fresh rolls,...

Their food is fresh, tasty and decently priced. To be honest, I was skeptical walking in because it's a hole-in-the-wall kind of place - set way back in some hard to get to center.... but Damn! As...

I would have to say that my favorite type of meat from the entire menu is the grilled pork (or prok). That says a lot for me since I usually lean towards shrimp, chicken or beef before I choose pork.

I really wanted to love this place. I love Vietnamese food, and I'm on the search for a special, hidden gem of a place in the west county area. I ordered imperial rolls and the chicken dinner. Both...

Yes, service can be slow. The place is family run and sometimes there are only two folks working.But, the food is very, very fresh and good. So if you have the time this is the place for you. Take...

The I "heart" Pho sign on the front of the store indicates exactly how much the proprietors care about their food, and it is one hundred percent true and makes the pho, basically, perfect. I have...

This place is a gem. In the delicious, diverse, and yet ever-so-growing world of pho, it's truly as good as it gets.5 stars for their pho alone. I was taken aback at first at how clean it was, and how...

First off, let me start by saying I am very forgiving when I go to a new place. There can be lots of factors, i.e. short staff, super busy, but when you sit down @ 5:50 and leave @ 7:20 there are...

I've been wanting to try this place for a while because it's close to my house and very close to my parent's house. I finally made the trip last night and it was definitely worth it. I wanted to give...

I usually go with my family on Sunday afternoon's and the place isn't usually filled with a lot of people. I'd say about two tables would be occupied so you wouldn't expect you're food to take about...

Can I say, TASTY and DELiCIOUS. I love this place, and I'm so happy it is close to home. It's priced fairly. I think they should have more advertisements though. I've only been there during the...

I go to The Bamboo Chopstick as often as I can. A few months ago my wife introduced me to Vietnamese food at The Bamboo Chopstick and it was great. Since then we have been to may other Vietnamese...

Been here, done that. . that's why I've never been back. Why make your menu so americanized (not a word, but, it's true, they call Tai Roundeye, WTF)? They over charge and the food it not even up to...

I love pho. Too bad I ordered it here--- the broth was just tasteless. Maybe they watered it down for "middle american taste buds." Big mistake. I also wanted the fried eggrolls (called imperial rolls...
