This place has been open as long as I moved in this town back in 1984, & all I can say you will not be disappointed! Dine in, or you can get Doordash from here, AWESOME PLACE
Good service, and able to accommodate a group of ~10 with fairly short notice. One of the vegetarian dishes (#15) is vegan and made with an amazing peanut sauce. Other dishes can be adjusted to make them vegan. Would go again if I’m in the area, and recommend to others.
Food was delicious. Wish there were more meat on the plates though. Almost too many veggies for the portion of meats you get. Food tasted great though and staff were friendly
We will be back! This place is a really good find! The food was delicious. Service was great. Delivery was quick. The place was packed. Parking was limited. So get there early to beat the rush.
This would have received a 5 star as I only have 1 complaint the portions versus the price. The food quality is excellent but the portion is on the smaller side. So a true rating would be 4.5 star out of 5. If the portion size increases this will be 5 stars and the best Asian food in Central Massachusetts.
Delicious Pho, broth is perfect, plentiful noodles... the Wonton soup is just ok. Ambiance inside is good.... the Servers are quick and welcoming. UPDATE: dined here yet again 2 days ago (June 2022). Food quality has really gone downhill. My rice (see 3rd photo) was hard and crusty... mentioned this to waiter, he didn't seem concerned. I will not be dining here again.
This was my go-to spot for Vietnamese food when I went to college around the area. I went here with a couple of friends and family members who were visitng me in college and everyone loved it here. The staff were friendly and the food was amazing. I love the crispy eggplant, crispy calamari, and fresh spring rolls for appetizers. Their phos and bun dishes are so comforting. I always end up coming back here whenever I'm in the area craving good Vietnamese food.
A nice gem in town, good food and prices can’t be beat. One of the few places that actually gives you tons of noodles in your pho. Pho is spot on, the fried spring rolls were freshly fried but lacked seasoning. If you’re looking for decent Asian food, this is a solid spot. Parking is one way street so be sure to enter correctly as signage is missing .
