Golden Flower Vietnamese

Best pho ever!! So friendly and quick. Very very tasty. The prices were very fair. I had the medium size pho and it was very tasty

No complaints here. We needed dinner before a show at the Masonic and after much indecision we both realized a craving for noodles. I got a cold noodle dish with ample chicken and vegetables and she a hot dish of seasoned beef with the same carb. Delicious food and affordable. It took a bit of time for them to make it to our table despite the restaurant barely being occupied but we had the tine to kill so ultimately not an issue. Being a big fan of cold noodle, I will return.

A very small place next to an alleyway. It's usually pretty dark in here. I came in the afternoon and there weren't that many people in there. Service was great though. I ordered the #1 and it was pretty tasty, but wish the soup had more flavor. It doesn't have as much meat as other viet places, but great value!

In hindsight, I definitely could have gone with a medium size instead, and I would have appreciated more substantial ingredients in the dish. That said, I’m sure I’ve stayed extra hydrated! As for dietary considerations, almost all of their pho options are gluten-free, except for one. All of their drinks are gluten-free too, though only the coffee and lemonade options allow for sugar adjustments. Regarding service, I noticed that they were unloading items, including a trash bin, from the street through the restaurant when I arrived around 10:30 a.m. I might have been the first dine-in customer of the day. The atmosphere was quite charming, decorated with cute Chinese decor, but I would have enjoyed some background music. I also noticed that cell phones rang and alarms went off during my visit. There is a bathroom within the store – while the path leading to it didn’t look very clean, the restroom itself was tidy. Interestingly, it seems that the few customers they get before 11 a.m. are generally tourists, whereas they attract many local workers during the lunch rush.

I was in the mood for pho on a rainy day, and I found this place on Yelp! I ordered the bun bo hue, and while the flavor and portion size were great, I was surprised to find that they didn't use the traditional pho noodles I expected. Instead, they served a different type of noodles that were a bit firmer, and I’ve never encountered those in pho before. I'm not sure if this is a more authentic version that I'm just not familiar with. On the bright side, the Thai iced tea was excellent and paired really well with the savory hot broth. I would definitely come back if I was in the mood for a rice dish instead!
