Phở Ao Sen Restaurant

Now my Go-To in the area! Came here with a group of friends (~8 people) after an event nearby (around 4:45PM Saturday), they seated us to the long tables where it's easy to chat and have our own space. I appreciate that mindfulness. They are quick to give us menu and help us with any questions we have. I order the Shrimp Spring Roll (Gỏi Cuốn) with their house sauce and it was delicious! The shrimp was a nice size, not like those small ones. I love the overall portion and the way they stacked the spring roll (see picture). This is now my go-to in the area for a well sized group. My friends enjoyed their pho, which undoubtedly looks great and have generous portions! I think you can't ever go wrong ask the server what do they recommend or is most popular too if you're ever stuck. This place gives me those classic southeast Asian family space with modern touches. Bathroom: Yes; it's on the shorter side which is great if you have smaller stature or little ones that only need a bit of an assistance. They do have wheelchair friendly bars but is on the lower side. Parking: Yes; there's a FREE parking lot next to it.

This is a nostalgic place for my family up in NorCal. The staff is super nice and they renovated the place. It looks very modern. Parking is somewhat difficult given it's popularity. I got the nem nuong as the appetizer which was great and the pho dac biet was great as well. The broth was very good and the noodles and meat portion was good. I was so full from the meal.

Still the best tasting Bun Bo Hue but it's getting way too pricey. I understand they are upping the service and the plating but for the value, it is a bit hard to swallow.

Phở Ao Sen Restaurant serves up solid Vietnamese food with generous portions. I ordered a vermicelli bowl and pho—both were satisfying and flavorful. The restaurant is surprisingly spacious, though the mix of various light fixtures gives the decor a slightly odd feel. Service was efficient and everything came out quickly. I’d definitely come back for another meal.

The food is SO good here! I've had the #2 and the #36, and both were amazing (and all the appetizers and side dishes are good that I've tried). I'm going to keep trying different dishes each visit, and I doubt I'll be disappointed. The atmosphere is very welcoming and nice, with beautiful lighting and plants lining the walls. The staff is pleasant and the food always comes out relatively quickly. I've been here multiple times and I can see myself coming back for more.
