PHO - VISTA — Restaurant in Vista

This was probably the WORST service I have ever gotten at any restaurant I have ever been too.

I went February 6th with a friend who I only see a few times a month. We were seated at the same time a party of 8 was seated. We ordered two drinks, an appetizer, soup, and noodles and received our appetizer and drinks quickly. This is where the service went downhill. We waited. And waited. And waited. An hour passed (I was keeping track of the time) and the party of 8, who were seated at the same time as us, were done with their dinner and leaving!! The party of 8 received all their courses while we were STILL waiting for the soup and entree. We got our waiters attention and asked for our check and told him how displeased we were with the wait. He assured us that our food would come soon but we were too grumpy and upset to wait any longer. He went to get the check and told us not to worry about paying.

I was so disappointed with the service! I have always heard great things about this restaurant and the one and only time I go I received terrible service.

We decided to stop in to Pho-Ever as we were in the mood for Vietnamese food. From the great reviews, it looked like a good place and it was also close by. We all felt it was the right choice as we started our dinner. We ordered the combination Pho #1, lettuce wraps, spring rolls, and Bun Rieu. Our spring roll appetizer came out first and they were delicious. The outter wrapper was soft and the ingredients inside tasted great. It came with 2 sides of peanut sauce. The rest of the food came out at once. I asked them to customize the Pho and they put the cilantro and onions on the side as requested. The soup was nice and hot so it cooked the bean sprouts as well as the rare beef quickly. The soup tasted well and my wife commented it didn't have a lot of oil floating around which was a good thing. Overall we thought the food tasted great and the service was very friendly. We also thought the price was really reasonable...

I am Vietnamese, and honestly I think this restaurant is just mediocre. The food is just okay. My wife and I visited the restaurant for lunch on Saturday. She got bun bo hue, I got a chicken stir-fried. For the price (both $14.95 in 2022), we think it’s not worth it. I am 125lb, skinny, and don’t usually eat a lot of food. However, I left the restaurant and still felt hungry. Also, the way they ver it (in bowls) is not professional and makes it look cheap. Ha ha ha. The bun bo hue is edible, not too great. Fortunately this restaurant is not in a Vietnamese community and their main guests are non-Vietnamese. I don’t believe Vietnamese would go to this restaurant very often. There’re other restaurants in Vietnamese communities (like in Mira Mesa or OC Little Saigon) with wayyyy better quality, and a little cheaper. Finally, this is just my...
