Delicious Asian fusion food on a student friendly budget. The drinks are the same as Mojo’s and their popcorn chicken is delicious, I’m happy to be able to get Asian tapas again. I also enjoy their rice bowls, though the popcorn chicken is a favorite.

I had the pho noodles with beef briskets, popcorn chicken and melon tea. I just wanna say the brisket is the best in SB!!! The popcorn chicken is a must-order-item!!! The shop looks modern and clean. Looking forward to try their Creamy Tom Yum noodle soup!!! Hope they will have some fried rice soon!!!

One of the few restaurants I will go back to again and be happy I spent the money. Prices don't make you feel you are getting under paid at work haha. 👍

Service was fast- food made within 10 min Had some difficulty order pickup since it was fairly new employees are so getting accustomed to work processes and training- all good! Ordered a basic popcorn chicken and can complain- crispy hot and fresh! Dad there's no basil in the mix ot options for level of spice... maybe in the future! Thank you for the tasty food and the fast service!

I think I tried the wrong thing at the wrong time? i really wanted to grab a hot meal after a long shift outside in the cold. like wearing three layers top AND bottom... cold.. i think during this time i started craving pho. i was really excited for my food, but here's what I think: the broth was really salty for me? it didn't taste like much of anything except for broth, and the beef was tender but I really didn't like the meatball. this was my first time trying meatball in my pho and idk if the texture is usually like... that? it was dense but like not just heavy - the inside was a specific texture. the noodles were okay, inevitably took up the taste of my spicy broth that tasted like not too much. i really dressed it up with my toppings - which all seemed really fresh to me! overall: it wasn't terrible, but! it's not great. service: was calm, simple nothing crazy.

Service was good and the food came out fast. I got the pho and it was 80% noodles. The noodle themselves were overcooked and falling apart. Because there was so little broth, all the broth quickly got absorbed into the mass of noodles and it just started resembling congee. What little broth there was just tasted like the snapdragon you can get at costco but with less flavor. The side veggies came in a wet enclosed plastic bag that all looked wilted/on the verge of going bad. To give a better picture, the basil leaves were turning darkgreen/black and mushy, and the bean sprouts were translucent and soft. The meat itself seemed to be of decent quality but had a weird off taste to it. Really not trying to hate on these folks but I can't recommend this place at all.

The pho here (their most popular dish) is mostly just noodles. The broth is flavorless. I swear the soup only came with 5-6 tiny cuts of beef

I like their bun bo hue a lot. It's my go to. The soup is always piping hot and it comes out very fast. Flavor is good and is overall very tasty.

It's more of a self service restaurant. Spicy pho and popcorn chicken are both really good with decent portion size.

I got the popcorn chicken which I thought was a lot for the price and paired well with the drinks. Service was fast and also had a convenient self order kiosk.

Food was low middle by IV standards. Less tasty than Pho Bistro, which this restaurant replaced. Price is relatively expensive compared to the other pho restaurants in the area, but this is the only one located in IV. Service was quick but the store was empty on a Friday evening. Store is clean and modern.

Definitely the best popcorn chicken in all of IV! It's a returning favorite from my favorite boba place too: Mojo Cafe! Their thai tea is reallly good, and I don't even thai tea like that! Def a 5/5!
