" My experience at Phan's was a mixed bag. While the food quality is undeniable, especially their garlic chicken, my visit was marred by slow service. Our server seemed overwhelmed despite it not being particularly busy. I appreciate that it's a family-run establishment, which is a plus. I might give it another chance since the food is authentic and delicious. " (*Curated Review*)

" On our first time at Phan's Kitchen, we went in eager for great Vietnamese food and we weren't disappointed. Our party of four shared several dishes including the pho and some spring rolls, both of which were very authentic. The flavors were vibrant and fresh. The staff, particularly the owner, was incredibly welcoming and made sure we were happy with everything. We did wait a bit longer for our main dishes, but we enjoyed the time catching up and the welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend this place if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a find! Phan's Kitchen exceeded my expectations, especially the pho with brisket—it was phenomenal! The broth was rich and had a great balance of spices. The owner was so welcoming, and the staff made sure our experience was enjoyable. This is definitely a hidden gem for those who appreciate a good meal. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, perfect for casual dining! Will be back for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall a fantastic dining experience! My friends and I enjoyed our dinner at Phan's Kitchen and were especially impressed with the brisket pho. It had a lovely flavor and really hit the spot! The staff was attentive and made sure our experience was pleasant. I think this is going to be our regular spot given how good the food is! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful experience! I tried the crab rangoon and pho. Both were exquisite in flavor and had authentic flair. The ambiance is welcoming with tasteful decor that heightens the dining experience. The staff was attentive without being intrusive. I felt the portion sizes were adequate, though I could have gone for a bit more pho. This restaurant has quickly won a place in my heart, and I will be coming back regularly! " (*Curated Review*)

" The first visit to Phan's Kitchen was delightful! I had the brisket pho, and it was some of the best I've had. The broth was rich, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. The only downside was the wait time for the food, but it was worth it! The ambiance was modern yet cozy, making it a perfect place for a casual dinner. I will definitely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Phan's Kitchen while searching for a good pho spot and I am so glad I did! The brisket pho was delicious, and I could really taste the authentic flavors. However, the service was subpar; I felt overlooked at times, especially when I was trying to get condiments. The atmosphere is pleasant, perfect for a casual eatery, but I think they need a few more staff members on busier nights. I would return, hopefully with a better service experience next time.
