Came to try the shrimp here and wasn’t disappointed! I ordered a pound of shrimp and a side of rice, my order ended up being around $25, so the shrimp here is on the higher end (compared to other places) but I think considering the location and service, it was worth it. The food was delicious and it came in a metal bowl, which I loved. It helped a lot with eating, sorting and clean-up. At first glance, it didn’t seem like a lot of shrimp to me, but it actually was! I also felt that compared to other Cajun places, the rice serving was very generous and the rice quality was great. I also tried a fresh passion fruit juice and it was super yummy and fresh! Overall, it’s a nice clean space and great service. The only downsides I saw was that there wasn’t much seating for bigger groups and also a few of their tables are currently being used for storage and stuff, so for a Wednesday night it seemed kinda full, so I can’t imagine on a weekend! Anyways, I’ll be back soon to try the pho!

Delicious fresh ingredients. Fast enough service to have lunch and didn't feel rushed. We did have to ask for the check though. She had the beef noodles and I had the seafood noodles. So fresh and the calamari was not breaded

I like this place but it's always hit or miss with the food quality specifically the pho. For example I delivery ordered the Chicken Pho today for lunch was super excited for it but when I opened up the noodles they were straight up uncooked, I'm talking like someone opened the noodle package soaked them in water for 30 seconds so they looked and felt wet then threw them in the order, they were still hard crunchy and wirey which I've never had happen from any pho place before so I'm not sure what's going on with them today but if they're going to start handing out undercooked noodles then I don't know if I want to keep eating here. I've attached a photo below of what im talking about, just looking at the picture you can tell they're undercooked.

First time, been here with my daughter. I have the seafood pasta and the shaken beef with rice. The dishes look beautiful and taste delicious. Next time, gonna try to Pho Rib

Spacious and clean environment. Fast service. Ordered fries (because why not?) and 2 bowls of pho - combo pho and filet mignon pho. Generous portions of meat and I particularly love how there’s still room in the bowl for me to add the bean sprout ;) broth is hot but can be more flavorful. Beef can be a bit more tender. Overall a good experience and a lovely place for dinner on a cold night!

It was pretty good! Wish I had enough people to go through and order their giant buckets of seafood and share. Tempted to try their signature crawfish. Their phở was full of flavor. I felt just a tad bit heavy on the MSG, but that's ok. Next time I know to ask for hot water to dilute just a bit for my flavor, and it'll be perfect. Broth to noodle and toppings proportion was just right. Also got the chicken wings. Not the typical ones I've had with the crispy breading, but this sort of nice rotisserie brown to it. Very good though, still crispy skin and juicy meat. Got nothing bad to say about the service. Wonderful people.

Casual dining for pho and crawfish, I only had time for lunch so pho it is. It was bland, no flavor yet the meat is great with their customer service on point, ask and you shall receive, it was an good foe the location and the price is a little high but now a days, it's like that everywhere.

Best Pho in Long Beach. Nice and clean, well lit, good customer service. The chicken pho was good, they need to work on chili oil.
