text: I've heard a lot about this place from other Yelpers, but I've also read the stigma that comes with this place: Long waits, bad service, bringing out wrong items....  But people claimed the food was good, so I decided to toss myself to the ring and see what happens.\n\nI'm not a major pho fan.  My experience largely extends to cracking jokes of the \"Pho real\" variety (yes, this is what I do).  For all the concern, however, none of the problems listed in reviews really happened in my experience.  Fast service, it sometimes took a moment to get the server's attention, but they were attentive when you did, they brought out something that we didn't ask for... not as a mess up, but they had an extra and offered the side dish for us to try just because.\n\nThe food itself?  Again, pho is not my usual first choice, but it's good to break out of the comfort zone, and to all credit, the food was tasty.   It was all well cooked, flavorful, and diverse.  I enjoyed it, felt full, and had a pleasant lunch.  Really, that's all I want from a dining experience.\n\nWhen the check came, the price was not bad at all.  Two people for less than $20 is NOT a bad deal.\n\nIf I have another experience like this, I'll gladly return here.  As I said, pho is not usually my first meal craving, but the experience that I had here will ensure that it won't be my last.
