We were greeted upon arrival and seat right away with the menu. The waiter came over and didn’t even say hi and ask to take our order or if we were ready, he walked over and just stood there looking at his order pad.

Boat noodle was good, flavorful broth. The noodles and meats were good also. The red curry was good but wished there were more protein instead of veggies.

I was not impressed. I ordered beef pho and Pad Thai. Each dish was $14. The portions are small, and the dishes are salty. I had to add water to the beef pho to eat it, and even then, I was still hungry cause the portion was small. Next time I rather drive further out to go to Saigon or Tay Ho.

Friendly service. Went here with my family of 13 and we enjoyed their delicious meals. Definitely recommend getting their boat noodle, pineapple fried rice, and pad thai! Beautiful artwork and pieces in the restaurant as well. Will visit again in the near future.

I’ve had good Thai food. I’ve had great Thai food. This is the very first time I’ve ever had BAD Thai food. My advice; don’t go. The spices were off, the soup was grainy and thin, the rice was undercooked, there was about a full bush’s worth of galangal to hide the taste, and there was hair in the soup. For a price between 5 and 10 dollars, I could justify this, but my meal, sans drink, was $13.95.

Not a single customer(8) was wearing a mask., even though there was a sign on the door. I’m very unhappy about that and I waited outside for my food even though there was an excessive heat advisory.

Great selection of authentic dishes! The staff were understanding when we came a bit later than our reservation time. I got the Friends Cafe Boat Noodle and it was delicious! Only one thing, I asked for medium spicy but there was not a chili to be seen I’m quite sensitive to spice so I would have been able to taste it if there was any heat in there.
