Great host, really good food for a great price. Nice atmosphere. Definitely recommend for Vietnamese cuisine.
Great go to when not in mood for formal restaurant setting. Food is good for the price and atmosphere is good to with some wine selections and background music. The wait could be improved but not terribly long.
Best pho around. Vegetarian offerings too. Great staff.. Buy back of the house a six pack if you like their work.
Take the time and drive to Buford for Vietnamese food. The amount of time you'll sit here waiting you'll be able to make it to an authentic place, eat, and be back. Waited over an hour and fifteen minutes for a bowl of pho and a noodle meal with shrimp and pork.
When it finally arrived, the soup had no flavor, very little meat, and was scalding hot. The shrimp for the other meal was cold. We saw our waitress maybe five times and the place was far from being a full house and she never once asked if we wanted more water even though our glasses were empty. I watched one guy stand at the bar for 20 minutes waiting for the bar tender to show up for beer. The bar tender showed up about 15 minutes after the guy took the liberty upon himself to go behind the bar, get a glass, and pour himself a beer.
Whoever the manager is needs to go to school (or back) and learn how to run a business. You should also hire more staff, or at least teach them how to take manage properly.
We were in town for the weekend and wanted something easy near our air b&b. A quick search turned up So Ba and we decided to give it a try. The building looks a little sketchy but the food was fantastic! We both got the Bun and the charred pork in it was utterly delicious. I love that they have sauces on the table so that you can edit the flavors to your preference. I will warn you if you don't like cilantro make sure to ask for it without. I forgot and stirred it up then had to pick it out man they put a TON of cilantro as I spent the entire meal picking it out. But that's my fault for forgetting to ask for it without any. Overall if we lived in the area we would def come back! Also the portions were large & filling for a really great price.
Went today at 1 said open but no one home. Went to facebook no updates called phone no answer. Great ownership???
Atmosphere is chill, service is good. The food is really good. Everything I've eaten here has been tasty. Standout must try items are: pho, charbroiled pork egg rolls, fried tofu, and beef short ribs. I'm not usually a big fan of tofu, but it's great here, and I get it every time I visit. It's crispy and served on grilled onions and jalapeños, and is delicious.
So I would love to give this place 5 stars because everything was totally on point except the service. Our server was Gina and she was a nice girl but the attention she was giving her tables was subpar. When Gina walked off to get refills for everyone and never returned with the cups. It was actually some of the worst service I've received. And no she wasn't busy with her other tables because as I attempted to get her attention multiple times I watched her carry on multiple casual conversations with customers that weren't hers. When I have to wave my hands in the air like I'm in class trying to pee during a test there is a problem. Food was good, ambience was good, price was good. Pho was great!
Small, i mean, small as in 4-6 stools. Bulgogi plate was excellent. Bar tender was fabulous. She knew the menu backwards and forwards. The place changes names later at night, and becomes alternative lifestyle friendly, I discovered. Later.
Been craving Pho for a few weeks, read the reviews and decided to try them. Absolutely delicious! Did not disappoint at all and the Jackfruit Mule was a great compliment to the meal.
We love SoBa! We tell everyone about it! We live in Kennesaw and drive there quite often! Worth it!!!
So Phôking good, it compares to shops on Buford Hwy. But in East Atlanta. We ate there 2 nights in row but had to force ourselves not to make it 3.
Fun place. Food is always good. Have been at least a dozen times and the food has never disappointed. I enjoy taking out of town guests. Service is typically slow. If that bothers you, sit at the bar.
I love this place. The staff is extremely laid back and their pho is some of the best I've had. Usually I'll make a trip over when I'm coming down with a cold and spice up my pho to get me well! Prices are very reasonable and you seat yourself wherever. Get a large bowl for 11 bucks- makes great leftovers the next day for lunch!
