Just like all the previous reviewers have said this place is awesome. The prices are great and the food is fast and good. The Saigon rice plate is huge and there was plenty left over for my husband to have it for lunch the next day. The exterior is not much to look at. Overall had a great experience here!

This is my favorite restaurant in the twin cities. I have been going there for years while living in St. Paul and now that I live in Mpls. still worth the drive. They have wonderful Vietnamese sandwiches on French Bread with pickled vegetables, fresh cilantro and a variety of toppings such as pate, meatball, read roasted pork, or vegetarian. Their Pho is to die for, not too salty, topped with fresh vegetables and lime. My favorite dish is the dry egg noodle soup which comes with noodles, meat and vegetables in one bowl and the broth in another. Their French Press coffee with sweeted condensed milk is also to die for. You can drink it hot or pour it over ice. The coffee is brought to your table and you can watch it brew, drip from the French Press. AMAZING service, get your food within 5 minutes, and very cheap. Sandwiches start at $1.50. You can also get food to go. Just some advice, they only take credit card with a $10.00 minimum, so bring cash if you are not too hungry.

I had driven past this non-descript building many many times before finally stopping. And now, I'll be stopping again and again. The service is friendly enough, quick and amazingly adept at handling large crowds without looking rushed. But the real star here is the food. The menu is extensive. I have eaten at many of the great Asian diners that line University but none has had such authentic and abundant choices. For $6 you can get stuffed on a variety of tasty soups, noodle dishes or sandwiches and the fruit shakes are wonderful and light. I can't wait to go back and try everything!
