We were brought into the dining room on one side that had several tables with all smaller parties and with two open tables along the windows. The host brought us back to the front and then to the other side of the restaurant with all the tables made up of parties of 6 or more. One table had 12 and 3 tables of 6 were there as a group so they shouted between tables and were up and down the whole meal. We were the only party less than 6. So much for our romantic dinner. The noise level was unbearable. We could not hear the servers or each other. We almost left twice but we were really looking forward to the meal after planning for many weeks. The food was good but the atmosphere ruined the night. We gave 2 stars because the food was well prepared and creative, but not enough to make up for the noise and poor planning. It was our worst dining experience ever. A well managed restaurant would never have sat a party of 2 among all large parties in a part of the restaurant that was obviously so loud. We will not return and would caution any future patrons to be cautious of where they seat you and the real noise level. This is not a quite dining experience.

This place was just okay, good for a quick meal at a good price. Walking into the restaurant, you get an immediate sense of the packed atmosphere like most Vietnamese restaurants. We ordered a beef Pho and a lemongrass chicken curry dish. The beef seemed overlooked but the noodles were excellent. I usually get the lemongrass chicken dish at other Vietnamese places but this time, i wanted to try the curry. I knew I should never buy curry anywhere but from South-Asian restaurants and this meal reinforced why. The curry was essentially Chinese takeout curry and I would not recommend it. The service was quick, decent, and as attentive as it gets in a place like this.

I was a little disappointed in Pho 54 today. I got Chicken Pho, and it was bland. The broth wasn't as flavorful as usual and the Chicken was without much taste. I'm not sure what the problem was, but I wasn't happy.

Great little spot with delicious lobster bisque. Food was excellent and quick. Also note that they source their seafood from sustainable traceable sources.

I'm an Asian guy and I was being there at Friday night. I've been told to be waiting about 3hours. But back to mins ago I heard the waiter told a white man in my front that it was just about 1.5 hours for waiting. Why is that?
