Huong Viet

The pho!!! Hands down the best ever. So glad to have a diversity in such a small town. The owner is fantastic and all of the food is amazing. A must try.

We booked a table for 7 people for 6:30pm Sunday.
We told the owner what items we wanted and were pointed to numbered dishes on the menu.
The fresh rice paper rolls came cooked. We asked for fresh - he said we ordered cooked. No further discussion.
We ordered 6 bowls of soup - only 4 came. The other 2 followed just as the main courses arrived.
The beef skewers were cold and like leather - none of us finished them.
The chicken skewers were actually rotten. They stank and one bite had us spitting them out into our napkins.
The owner barely acknowledged the fact and said he would deduct them from the bill. I challenged him to eat a piece of the chicken and he kind of admitted that they 'weren't good'. He 'graciously' took 10% off the bill.
Been there twice. The first time and most certainly the last.

Found this place a year ago. The Roast Pork Pho is terrific. My wife and I have gone there at all different times and have always been able to get a seat. The service is a little slow but its a BYOB so just enjoy the fact they aren't pushing you out the door.

This place should be shut down. Health violations, terrible service, ridiculously long wait. I'll cut to the chase and say the final straw was watching the server pour used tea directly from an uncleaned table into the communal tea pot that was used to pour our drinks.

Eating here is the "restaurant horror story" I tell to friends and is one of the few times I've walked out of a restaurant after ordering. We had a reservation for six, came in at the appointed time and were told to wait. We waited half an hour and were finally seated, despite there being plenty of open, large tables throughout the restaurant.

There weren't enough cups set out for everyone, and when we asked for more were told there were none available. This made no sense since there were literally two other tables in the restaurant with patrons and an uncleared table next to us with plenty of cups waiting to be washed.

Our food never came and we waited and waiting. Going on an hour, I asked for another cup of tea. Never came. Asked again, and again. On the fourth time I watched them visit the uncleared table next to us and pour the leftover tea from people's cups into the teapot. Then they tried to pour the tea from that teapot into our cups. At that point I said I would not drink used tea from a stranger's cup and asked how they could dare do that. They had no answer.

Later, our food wouldn't come and their rude daughter, the waitress, refused to go get her father for us to complain about the tea and the hour and a half wait.

We left and will never return. If you want Viet food in the Bloomfield area, I recommend checking out that place in the East/West shopping center instead.

My favorite dishes were the fried crepe (banh xeo) and the beef noodle soup (pho). Food was fulfilling and warming to the soul. Also, I loved my waitress, Christina! She was so helpful, polite and fun to talk to. I would recommend this restaurant!
