" The seating here is quite limited, so keep that in mind! Still, the food is definitely worth it. I enjoyed the pork banh mi and the pho was flavorful, though I felt the noodles were a bit overcooked. Overall, a great spot to grab a casual bite if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" This spot possesses some of the best Vietnamese food I've had outside of Vietnam. I tried the special pho and it did not disappoint! The depth of flavor was remarkable. The overall environment is cozy, perfect for a casual date or lunch with friends. Just be sure to remember that it's cash only! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally had the chance to try this place and was blown away by the quality! The atmosphere is small but charming, and the service is incredibly fast. The food serves fresh and flavorful, authentic Vietnamese options. I especially loved the summer rolls, which were crispy and fresh. Don't forget to try their special iced coffee before you leave! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden gem! I loved the lemongrass chicken banh mi; it had the perfect balance of flavors. The staff was friendly and the service was faster than I expected. My only complaint is that seating is limited, but they do have outdoor tables, which is a bonus! " (*Curated Review*)

" Lovely atmosphere, but that was overshadowed by the service I received on my last visit. The server seemed overwhelmed and didn’t provide the usual friendly service I’ve come to expect. Food-wise, my pho was tasty, but I would recommend going for their spring rolls and tacos instead. Please bring cash! " (*Curated Review*)

" I really enjoyed my visit to 5ive Spice! The braised short rib pho was nothing short of amazing, and the attention to detail with the ingredients was remarkable. The tiny space adds a personal touch to the dining experience. Remember to bring cash, as they don’t accept cards! " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely spot for a quick meal! The cash-only policy was an inconvenience, but the quality of the food more than made up for it. The menu offers some unique twists on traditional dishes. I enjoyed the braised short rib pho, which was both hearty and flavorful. Would definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)
