Pho Duyen Mai

Signature pho was good. Broth was above average without being too memorable. Beef was delicious. Didn't try anything else on the menu save the iced coffee (which was strong).

This is usually one of my favorite places, but this was a really disappointing visit. The waitress was REALLY hard to understand, and very short with us. The tofu spring rolls had a rolled up deep fried wonton wrapper in them, which I didn't see on the menu, but I can't swear it wasn't there. The chicken was so dried out it was hard. I've had good experiences here in the past, but whatever change took place (new menus, new people, and different ingredients) it wasn't for the better.

One of my favorite spots for Vietnamese food. Honestly my favorite evening place. The staff was friendly and observant. Food is like a restaurant in Jacksonville I loved.

Fantastic vermicelli bowls and pork rolls. Their phone is mediocre though. Our go to place for vermicelli and broken rice. Great value Vietnamese food. Always packed but plenty of parking. Service is usually pretty fast but sometimes it's a little too busy during peak hours. Not friendly service you'd expect at an American restaurant but good for an Asian place.

A friend recommended this place, and you know how that goes: You wonder what sorts of awful places they've tried for this to be the best, it eats at you, and eventually you drop them as friends.

... But not this time. I ordered the lemongrass pho, the house specialty, and it was divine. So amazingly delicious, my dining companion asked for taste after taste and ordered his own to go.

Start with an order of the spring rolls with pork and shrimp. You won't regret it!
