Among the pho I've tried in Vietnam, this place is number one in terms of taste. This is my first time writing a Google review too. It was so delicious that I even asked about the closing time. Compared to other pho restaurants, the seasoning was a bit saltier, and the price was the best. I acknowledge it as a top local eatery. The stir-fried noodles were also delicious.

A local and affordable pho rice noodle shop. I added chili sauce to the ordered rice noodles, and the spring rolls come in a bun cha style with a little bit of noodles. It has a bit of a local taste, but it's delicious for Koreans too^^

It's completely local! The stir-fried beef noodles are really delicious...! The lemon honey drink is also delicious!! The rice noodles have a savory broth, but it was tasty so I finished it all! A lot of Grab deliveries come, and many dine-in customers also come, so when I went during dinner time, it was a very busy shop. Locals, Koreans, Westerners—a diverse crowd comes haha. I want to eat the stir-fried noodles again... The price is very cheap.

I've tried quite a lot of pho in Da Nang. Among them, this one is very impressive. There's also a lot of delivery, so if you don't have time to come, I recommend using Grab. It's very delicious. What more can I say?!

I ordered a beef + chicken mix and ate it, and it was light and refreshing, probably because of the chicken.

Although there are some mosquitoes, this is a place where the pho, stir-fried noodles, and lemon honey juice are really delicious. The seasoning of the stir-fried noodles is truly perfect, and the taste and texture of the vegetables are amazing.. For drinks, I definitely recommend you try the lemon honey juice…

Among the pho I've eaten near Wink Hotel, this is the top. It's really, really the most delicious. I don't remember what rice dish it was, but the rice bowl was also delicious, and the morning glory was naturally delicious too. A true local!!! restaurant. Don't go to the famous places, definitely!!! come here.

It was my first meal in Da Nang, and the stir-fried beef noodles were perfectly moist and the vegetables were cooked to a fantastic degree, so whenever I ate noodle dishes during my trip, I kept thinking about this stir-fried noodles. So on the last day, right before boarding the plane, I visited again and ate it once more! The fried rice and pho were also delicious, but the pho broth was especially excellent. It was a completely local restaurant, so I truly felt the Vietnamese atmosphere.

I enjoyed the cost-effective and delicious rice noodles. I recommend this local food restaurant. Highly recommend delivery! It feels like a snack bar, but the whole family is friendly and the food is made with great skill. The water spinach dish with lots of garlic, and the warm rice noodles with cilantro and lime made for a healthy meal without any stomach issues in the scorching heat. I ate so well that the staff looked surprised lol. It was a fun memory together. Wishing you great success! Thumbs up for the water spinach and rice noodles restaurant👍🏻…

This is a small local restaurant. I came to see the cathedral and eat nearby. I came after seeing Google reviews. It's good value for money. The pho is really delicious. The stir-fried noodles were also good. I'll come again next time~

It's a restaurant with a completely local atmosphere and delicious food. All the dishes were to my taste. They gave a separate broth, and at first taste it was strange, so I thought it wasn't pho broth, but after adding cilantro and lime, it was really delicious pho broth! So I found another great restaurant. As I always say, if you're looking for a spotlessly clean restaurant like a food chain, this might not suit you. It's literally a local restaurant that suits your taste.

This is a pho place. It's awesome! The portion isn't huge, so it was perfect for a late-night snack. The stir-fried beef noodles are also delicious! There are constant Grab orders coming in, and many delivery drivers come here. A local favorite 🫶🫶🫶🫶

I came here to avoid the many restaurants in Da Nang, Gyeonggi-do that manipulate their ratings (?). It was so delicious that I went twice during my 3-day, 2-night trip. I wonder if all Vietnamese food is delicious, or if this place is especially good! Please recommend more local restaurants like this~

Cilantro served with pho! I experienced the true taste of cilantro here. The morning glory side dish is also mild yet keeps me thinking about it. The authentic flavor that can only be felt at local spots, reasonable price! Plus the friendly owner's service. Perfect!

This place has affordable prices but amazing taste. Among Da Nang's rice noodles, this place was the best. I highly recommend this place, which is much more delicious than expensive and famous restaurants (Michelin Guide, Michelin Bib Gourmand).

Beef and pickled vegetable fried rice with rare beef pho is delicious and fragrant. Fried rice 8/10 compared to Northern flavor, it's okay. ...

The eatery is small and clean. The pho is delicious, especially the chicken mixed pho I had with a rich sauce mixed in, just right for the palate. The portion of vegetables, peanuts, and fried shallots mixed in makes it even more flavorful when eating. The accompanying bowl of soup also helps balance the taste when eating mixed pho. The price is quite reasonable. The eatery is open late, suitable for night owls.

The pho is delicious. But the price is 45k. Only the owner cooks and serves at the same time.

I'm a Saigonese traveling here. I also read the 1-star reviews of the eatery, but I didn't want to be biased, so I still wanted to try the dishes fairly. The eatery is also near the hotel. ...

FEEDBACK FROM A QUIET CUSTOMER WHO LEFT I rarely write negative reviews, but this time is an exception — because I used to really like the food at this eatery. First order, items were missing. No problem, I sent a gentle message to give feedback, not harsh at all. No one replied. I ordered again the next day, thinking I'd let it go and everything would be normal. But surprisingly, the order was canceled, the shop said 'store closed' — yet it was operating as usual. A few days later, my account was restricted because the shop reported me. I don't need a public apology, just a minimum of respect for the customer. Customers don't ask for much, but the way the shop handled it makes people feel unappreciated. I hope that if the shop is serious about business, they should reflect not only on the food but also on the service and attitude when issues arise.
