Waitress very nice, food got to the table within 5 minutes, but Pho quality was very poor. Watery broth, 3 slices of beef and 2 mini chunks of tendon for a very High price. $16. You get way more in other restaurants with plenty of options not just 2, all the pho here reduced to 2 optionis s, meat balls and, beef and, and so on, on top of that they charging $1 for each tap water with the excuse of raising prices what I think is a lack of respect and it scratch the legal limits.ah, and veggie pho raises up to $20 crazy. I never gonna go back ever again.

The food was super good and I loved how their place looked. My first time trying Pho and I'd say I'm addicted now

DO NOT GO HERE FOR PHO!
I’m a foodie critic. I love food and mostly noodles! Let me get to the point. The story is I get in there no one was there at about 11am. The server she was sweet. The service was quick. Looks soooo good when the food came. The pho was ridiculously huge! Great portions for prices. However the broth was like water my stakes was dry and chewy, I had added so much hoisin and Sriracha sauce and chilli oil but it was still so tasteless. No flavors! I also ordered summer rolls, great presentation looks good but the peanut sauce was horrible!
Not going here again. I’m so sorry for this review. This was my experience with the food. I’m just moved here. New to the area. Thank you!

Nice little pho spot. I personally found the pho to be okay, but nothing amazing. Can't knock it because it certainly wasn't bad. I've just had more flavorful. I'm new here and found it odd that thru served it with lemon instead of lime, don't know if that's how it's done in these parts. I'll be back to try other menu items.

I loved it. It was so delicious. I ordered the beef combo phó. Mama was so nice. A very sweet woman. Now what the hell are you looking for? Kind of young brother get money anymore? Let my pants slack down to the floor. I highly recommend eating pho here. If you try Vietnamese food anywhere. Try Pho Five-O.

Ordered pho for takeout, and was highly disappointed. The brisket seemed to be cold cuts, noodles were large and chewy, and the broth was subpar. I pride myself on finishing what I order, but I could barely stomach this unfortunate dish. If you're thinking of eating pho, do yourself a favor and avoid pho five-o

Overall, good, I can't judge anything about the food too harshly, but I've simply had better.
The summer rolls were generously stuffed, but I would have liked fewer noodles and more veggies. The sauce had a deeper flavor than most that I've had, which I appreciated. The combination pho came with a good variety of meats, the steak and beef balls being the highlights. The broth was solid, with decent umami. However, it didn't "wow" me like some broths have in the past.

Again, while I can't point to anything specific being sub-par, I simply wasn't amazed and therefore can't give it a full 5 stars.

Waitress was very friendly, food is something u need to get use to. Pho was a challenge to finish, wasn't good but it's food.

Staff was nice, pho tasted like water and tons of salt, bun bo hue I had to scoop out a whole bowl of oil before I can even eat it, but that tasted decent.

Been coming here and supporting this business for 10 years. Usually come once a week even during the pandemic with all of the restrictions I have supported this business OVER and OVER even when the establishment next door has a line and nobody seems to be in this restaurant at all I still remained loyal to them because I liked their food and up until now the people. Before I say this I want to say that my mother is Vietnamese. I know how the typical stereotype goes with this nationally. So here is my problem. I began doing takeout more due to covid and after all these years I got home to realize that my order was wrong. I called and the lady assured me that the next time I came she would resolve it by not charging me for extra meat because I ALWAYS order extra meat with the #47 (no other order). Oh and the day of the wrong order I asked for extra sauce (I ordered 3 things) and she literally gave me 3 small containers 1 of each type of sauce. Since I had ordered 3 things I asked for more sauce and in all my years of supporting she had the nerve to say $2 extra but if I sit in the restaurant I can use as much sauce as I want. That way my first sign that she could care less that I've been a loyal customer for all of these years. So the issue was today I went to order my usual #47 the only meal that I've ever requested extra meat for and she told me the extra meat she promised me was for the pho (which I never usually order to go but was the order she messed up). I told her I never have ordered extra meat for pho only the #47 and the way she explained when I called about the wrong order was. Next time you come I won't charge you for extra meat. Well that day came today and she did not do what she told me when THEY sent me home to eat a meal that was not correct. My point is that being supportive and loyal to this business after all these years and she was unable to accommodate me by not charging me for extra meat. Sad and ridiculous. You lost a long time customer forever. Because you wanted to charge me $2 for extra chicken. Horrible customer service.

Fantastic restaurant and experience with plentiful and great tasting authentic Vietnamese cuisine! They were kind enough to seat our party of five near their closing time! Big Kiné Mahalo and we’ll certainly be back again real soon!

Terrible food, service and cleanliness even the water tasted terrible. Worse Vietnamese food I've ever had and could not even use restroom after paying to eat here. Only wish there was a 0 star option.

Just what we needed! Husband ordered #15 Beef Pho, and I ordered #22 Beef Combo. Pho Noodle soup only comes in one size, and that is large. I loved the broth. It's always about the broth. Thank you!

Awesome service, friendly, and the most delicious food served. You see, I really didn't care for Pho. I had it once many years ago and did actually like it, but not enough to eat Pho again. Then I moved to Aiea my son wanted to eat Pho. We found this place in Google. Both me and my son agree on the quality and taste.loved it. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. We've been ordering our dinner there at least twice a month.

Was looking for something soft like saimin for my mom (who just had dental work). Walked in to this very clean place, and was met by a very cheerful person. Ordered two #26, chicken saimin, and waited just 10 minutes before picking it up. They each came in two plastic containers, soup separate from noodles and chicken and a lettuce leaf cup of toasted garlic bits, with a big bag of the usual pho garnishes and sauces. It was so good! My mom enjoyed it and was able to eat it easily. I liked that there was so much shredded chicken, and that the broth was delicious and neither too salty nor too fatty. Definitely recommend!
