“ The food was taisty! :) ”
“ The best Vietnamese food in Lyon. Americans: go out of your way to come here ”
“ I ordered one of the set menu deals from which I chose: pork spring rolls, phở, and the lychee dessert. The staff were very attentive and the food was delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant. ”
“ The Grand Pho is a really good portion for the price (as well as a flavorful broth and served piping hot) and the Bo Bun is delicious! The service takes a little bit of time however, but overall it's an excellent place for pho in Lyon. ”
“ Humble restaurant with exquisite food. Quick service and kind staff. The small soupe was a bit untasty. The steamed starters were delicious as well as the main dish. 3 dishes (no rice) 19.80 euros. ”
“ Wrong soup broths... The phnom penh soup was like a banh canh soup and the peking duck soup smelled like what was supposed to be the phnom penh soup. The 2 spring rolls came out practically broken/damaged (not fresh). If you know what true Vietnamese cuisine is, I would advise you eat somewhere else ”
“ Besides fantastic pho, this cozy restaurant also has very good Phnom Penh Noodle Soup probably because the owners are from Cambodia. Was warmly greeted upon arrival. Their watermelon is extremely sweet and thirst relinquishing!!! Highly recommend ”
“ I came here today looking for a hot soup and I got a beautiful and delicious pho. I was in Vietnam for 6 weeks last year and this pho beats some of the ones that I had over there. Fragrant, balanced and huge, excellent quality steak and the brisket perfectly cooked. I left very happy tonight and I am coming back tomorrow for more. Other people's dishes looked very authentic too so I know what I'm having. Yummy ”
