The food is authentic and flavorful. I have tried many dishes, and so far everything is a hit. The addition of a complimentary dessert at the end of the meal shows their dedication to great service. Highly suggest trying thr vietnamese coffee if it is your thing.

Very enjoyable and tasty beef pad Thai. My wife had shrimp and veggies baguette sandwich that she said was delicious. The soup and spring rolls took a while, but we're both delicious and well worth the wait. Our entrees were large and delicious. The waitress was attentive, but not obtrusive. We'll return and unlike some were not put off by them wanting to add a 3.5% surcharge if you used a card. We were not, and simply paid cash.

This place is under a new ownership, which has done amazing things with the place. We were taken care by Charisma, who was very attentive and sweet. The food was fantastic, and some of the best views you could ask for. Super clean facilities. Also, seems to get a fair amount of take-out business, soups -- especially -- seemed to be in favor

OMG, this was the best pho in Oro Valley and possibly Tucson (sorry Miss Saigon). They are under new management and re-opened May 9th, 2023 with a more Vietnamese menu. I'm a pho connoisseur and I have to say this is one of the best!
