" Great Vietnamese place! I really liked the pho, but the prices were higher than I anticipated for the portion. The service was friendly, and the staff kept checking on us, even when it got busy. The ambiance was nice, and the place felt authentic with the decor. Overall, a good meal with a bit of a price tag. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations given the reviews, but my visit left me disappointed. The pho was subpar—too many noodles and not enough flavors in the broth. The spring rolls were decent but lacked the crispiness I was hoping for. Service took too long, and while the staff were polite, it felt understaffed for a busy evening. The ambiance was nice, but overall, I expected more authenticity from a Vietnamese restaurant. I might not return soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I made a trip to Pho Ba Co last week, and I was impressed! The food was bursting with flavor. I ordered the shrimp pho, and it was a great choice. The portion was filling, and I could taste the freshness in every bite. The wait for the food was a bit longer than expected, but the quality was worth it. The atmosphere felt authentic and homey. Would recommend this to anyone who loves Vietnamese food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience during my dinner visit. The pho was flavorful, but I felt like there wasn’t enough meat in my bowl compared to what I've had at other places. While the service was polite, it did take a while for the food to arrive. The restaurant had a lively atmosphere, but it felt a little too crowded for my liking. Still, I would consider giving it another shot due to the positive reviews about their spring rolls! " (*Curated Review*)

" After reading a number of reviews, I was excited to try Pho Ba Co. The pho lived up to the hype—rich flavor in the broth, and the portion was generous. I especially loved the fresh herbs that complemented the dish. The service was quick, and I appreciated the cozy atmosphere. It feels authentic, unlike some other places I've been to. I can't wait to bring my friends next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, this place has the best pho I've ever tasted! The broth was rich and flavorful, really hitting the spot. The staff was friendly, and they seated us right away even though it was busy. The only downside was that it can get a bit noisy, but that’s just part of the lively atmosphere. Overall, a fantastic dining experience, definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time here, and I loved it! The pho was very authentic and packed with flavors. The servers were friendly and the atmosphere was cozy. The only complaint I had was the price, which felt a little higher than usual for the portion sizes. Other than that, I was very satisfied with my meal and I'll surely be back to try other dishes.
