“Amazing! Just moved back home from California after 3 years. Missing Viet food ain't no joke. Found this spot on yelp and the owner is so lovely! The food and the vibes unmatched! We will be back!”

“I’ve been to 3 pho spots in the Chicago/burbs and this one had the best chili oil. It’s exactly what I been looking for in a pho spot not some bland mild chili oil this one had flavor and actual spice so I really appreciate that. We ordered the steak pho, and steak and brisket it was pretty good the noodles at first was clumpy but after stirring it around it all blended well together. I also got the chicken banh mi which came with fries and was about 10$. I tried it cold the next day and it hit the spot. The size of it was pretty big too.. pause. Mango smoothie hit too.”

“Excellent Vietnamese food in Chicago. Found this restaurant through UberEats and then tried it in person. It was so good that we ate there three times in a row. I would recommend the pork chop, combination pho, pad see ew, and tom yum soup.”

“Amazing a clean counter service place that serves Vietnamese food amazing”

“Absolutely delicious food, with very generous portions! The most difficult thing about ordering on the kiosks was deciding what to get, as there were so many tempting options. I opted for the Pad Thai, and it had the best chicken I’ve ever had. Plenty of space to dine in, as myself and various other patrons chose to do. The staff working was polite and helpful, even offering to pack leftovers into to-go containers.”

“Just found this place walking around lunchtime. Clean and very personable staff. Food was delicious! Ordered Pho and the tofu noodle dish and of course a boba tea. Will definitely go back. Recommend stopping by!”

“I love this concept. No waiters / servers. Walk up, order on a screen, pick up yer food once they call yer name. Genius. Pho get about it!”

“Great spot for some good pad thai and pho. The portions are gigantic for the price that you pay and you will either get full to the brim or will leave with a bunch of leftovers. The ordering system with the touchscreen is super convenient but also encourages using cash than card (as paying with cash is 10% cheaper). Perfect spot for a quick and easy dinner and I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“OBSESSED with this place! Huge portions, quick service and beyond consistent quality. We come here probably once a month and it’s amazing every time. Favorite dishes are the Singapore noodles, classic pho, potstickers and rangoons but you truly can’t go wrong with anything on the menu here.”
