Near Johnson St and Ambassador, the same shopping center(Time Plaza) where LaPagua is, in the old Chung King location.

I've been a handful of times and have always enjoyed it all, I've had the Pork Belly Sliders and BBQ Short ribs as appetizers, they also offer the short ribs as a rice plate, all good. The pho is great and I also recommend the pineapple shrimp fried rice.

Solid place. I just moved over here from the West Bank, and while it's no Pho Tau Bay or Pho Ga Quang Minh, it's very respectable considering the market it's in. Went twice last month and their pho hits the spot.

Update: Had the sirloin vermicelli bowl and it was very good for the lunch price.

Spring rolls were top notch also

I went a couple weeks ago and had the Roasted duck soup, it was amazing. The waitress said they are trying it out on the weekends to possibly add it to the menu full-time. I hope they do, if so this will be a regular stop for me. Also the Pork belly sliders/buns are on point.
