I had a rather uncomfortable experience at this restaurant. One of the older cooks kept staring at me throughout my meal and was laughing with another waiter, which made me suspicious that they might have tampered with my food. Additionally, the pho was overly salty. Overall, it was an awkward atmosphere, and I won’t be returning.
The food here is overpriced and honestly not worth it. This is our second time ordering from this restaurant, and while the overall taste was mediocre, the raw steak was quite good! That’s why we decided to return for it again tonight. We picked it up as usual, and the staff was very friendly. However, when we got home and turned over the noodles, we found a clump of hair embedded in the bottom. This has definitely been our last visit. When I called to request a refund, the woman on the phone said we would have to drive all the way back just so they could inspect the hair in the food before issuing a refund.
A tiny unassuming pho joint that is close to the UCR campus and always hits the spot. Highly recommend!Food: 5/5
Left my food pickup sitting at front of the restaurant where anyone can grab it or mess with it. They shouldn't do this.
