Creasian Fusion — Restaurant in Elk Grove

I had not been here before and was leary about the choices especially since I basically have to eat a low carb diet right now. Luckily I was able to get them to serve the clay pot without the rice and vegetables I don't like. And then it was perfect. So I can definitely come here again. I was with a group of 8 ladies around 4PM and we all asked for separate checks. I noticed the 18 % tip was already in the bill but I have heard of other restaurants doing the same when you have a group so I wasn't surprised. Especially when you consider it's more work for them. The restaurant was not crowded at that hour and we saw the staff eating so it was a good time for them to do so. All in all the service was great. Quick and personable. They were patient with us too. Kinda cute decor with all those bamboo up front and iconic statues up at the counter. They had Wonton Soup on the menu which I recognize and apparently a pork chop plate my friend had. The pork chops were thin but huge. In fact we all took leftovers home so sizeable portions. They had Pho and Oxtail Soup. There were many different choices on the menu just I didn't know what they were exactly. You would have to check it out yourself. The value was great as it was about about $17 all told and since it was enough...

Buckle in guyssss. I think a "4.2 overall" is understandable, but that people who have had less than perfect experiences should give this place another shot because, wow! The food is stunning, I can highly personally recommend the clay pot rice (with beef added, I would suggest!) and shaking beef, both delicious, perfect in texture, bringing me back again and again. The people I've come with have also had the same experience with each of their dishes every time. The drinks are also superb- I would recommend the juices over the smoothies based on what I've tried. This isn't to say the smoothies are bad at all, but they don't really match the absolutely awesome fresh coconut juice, tasty as heck passion fruit juice, and surprisingly, wonderfully strong thai tea. I am excited to try the salty lemonade at some point here. Service is a tad variable, but I've had some very great experiences here especially with a very smiley and attentive server (no nametags). Other servers have sometimes been a little aloof but he really went above and beyond with his attitude, and any server here in my experience is kind and will get you what you need....

April 2024 - ordered the bo luc lac (shaking beef) and mi sao gon (crunchy noodles). The beef bare any. They added lot of potatoes so barely any beef. The crunchy noodles was good. Mix of meat but didn't see any squid. Seems like different chef and foods wasn't the same as it used to be.

June2023-been awhile I post but recently we order Pho thru Uber eats for rare steaks and tendons, but we received pho rare steak and flanks. Didn't like it too much but manage. They should double check on orders going out.

OP. Broth are good, didn't feel bloated after the meal so thumb up on that. The tendon need to cook little longer, little chewy. Overall is good pho 👍. Price went up and small size is good...
