" Had an excellent experience at Ben Tre! The pho broth was some of the best I've had, with a perfect balance of flavors. The noodles were fresh, and the beef was tender. The service was prompt, and I appreciated how friendly the staff were. I recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Vietnamese cuisine. Plus, it’s a great spot to grab a meal if you’re near the airport. " (*Curated Review*)

" The dishes here are generally good, but the prices felt a bit on the high side, considering the portions were just average. I had the beef pho, which I found flavorful but not standout. The service was efficient, and they were courteous, but I expected a bit more warmth. All said, it’s a decent place to grab a bite and have a cozy meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m a huge fan of Vietnamese food, and Ben Tre is officially one of my favorites! I love their pho—it’s rich and flavorful, and the portions are absolutely generous. They also have excellent spring rolls, which make a perfect appetizer. My only complaint is that it can get a bit crowded, especially on weekends, which could lead to slightly slower service. But the authentic taste of the dishes more than makes up for that! Next time, I plan to try their specials. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an enjoyable dinner at Ben Tre last night. The pho was definitely the highlight of my meal; the broth was rich and warm, making it perfect for a chilly night. However, I found the service to be slightly rushed. The spring rolls were decent but lacked the typical crispness I love. Overall, it was a nice experience, but there's room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at Ben Tre is generally very good, but I had a few misses. I tried the shaking beef, and while the flavor was on point, I found the meat to be a tad overcooked. The atmosphere is lively, but I felt a bit overwhelmed with the noise level. Still, their garlic noodles are absolutely fantastic and worth going for. I’d recommend this place for a good meal, just manage your expectations on some dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I found my experience at Ben Tre to be lovely. The food was hearty, and the service was prompt. I did notice some minor inconsistencies with dish flavors, which could be improved. However, the ambiance was welcoming, and I enjoyed the casual setting. I would recommend this restaurant to those who are looking for a satisfying meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ben Tre has been my go-to spot for years! The consistency in quality is commendable, and I adore their spring rolls. They are always filed with flavor and are crispy! The pho keeps me coming back, especially during colder months. My friends who've joined me raved about the food too. The only thing I'd change is the noise level—it tends to be a bit loud during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)
