Pho On The Block - Kalamazoo

The bread is warm, delightfully toasted, and the veggies are crunchy. You can tell when folks take care making food, because it just tastes better. That is the case at this gem. Park in back, walk around front. Plenty of seating.

Extremely poor service. Extremely poor food. I waited over a half hour for my meal and the place wasn 't even busy. Staff was just rude and unconcerned. This is a fast food place, and when I asked what was up after other parties who ordered after me we 're getting their food, I was simply told to take my seat. I wouldn 't have minded if the wait if the staff were polite about it, but they were not. When the food finally came, it was dry and tasteless: just white rice with raw shredded carrots, raw cucumbers, and a few slices of dry chicken with no spice to speak of. The spring that came with it tasted on par with supermarket microwave varieties. At least they supply large bottles of cheap hoisin and hot sauce, so you can add some kind of flavor to your food. Won 't ever come back! Portions are small and over-priced. What a disappointment!

Food is good. It comes out one dish at a time so don't go with a group of more than 2 or 3. Understandably due to the smallest kitchen I have ever seen for a restaurant.

Interesting building with sufficient parking. Good Vietnamese food. Eating needs a while to prep so it's not a quick bite. The Lemon rice bowl is amazing! The tofu is great.

Everything about this place was amazing on the cold rainy day I had visited. The pho was nice and hot when it arrived and you could customize it the way you want as they bring you sides of vegetables and japeños. The menu is small and simple so those with anxiety or who never know what to order can feel comfortable here. The large windows allowed you to people watch as you eat and their Thai iced coffee tasted very authentic. Even the living walls provided some modern decor without it feeling out of place. If you love Asian food or noodles, come here. If you want a casual place to eat and puddle watch, you will want to come here as well.
