I really really really really wanted to like this place being that we do not have any outstanding authentic southern style pho places in Pearland. Ong Jas is as good as it gets. Back to pho prime... Let's get into it...
We came at 6:30pm and they already ran out of classics such as bun bo hue... fine, guess we will try the pho since it's a pho place after all. We ordered 3 bowls of pho and 2 banh mis. I ordered Tai and Gau (filet and fatty brisket) this is important for later. We finished our order and paid around 6:45pm.
Went to get a drink, ice machine was out of ice, I went back to the register to inform them and asked if they can refill the ice. Okay, they say.
Food arrived after roughly 30 minutes. Waiting over 30 minutes for 3 bowls of pho and 2 Banh Mi is diabolical. When it came, broth was lukewarm at best, after veggies added it became downright room temperature. Remember i ordered and paid for Tai and Gau, well, they only gave a few thin slices of Tai and no Gau to be seen. Banh mi was $9.50 and breaking apart, complete rip off. Oh, btw, that ice was refilled an hour later when I gave up on the place and basically left half my pho and left utterly disappointed.
Hopefully just newly opening jitters and kinks to be worked on but I was Not at all impressed and will not be coming back unless something drastic changes.
