I'm from California and was in Madison for Business.  Went to this place on Sunday evening and boy the place was so dead.  We thought that with all these great reviews the place would be jam packed but that was not the case.  We decided to stay since we didn't want to drive out any further for a pho restaurant.\n\nMy husband and I both order number 14 pho with everything.  The service was fast and when the waitress brought out the veggies out for the pho noodle; the beans sprout seems to be old that they just give it to us since they don't want to \""waste\"" it.  \n\nThis is one reasons why I gave it a low review and the broth was salty that I had to ask for more limes.  The after taste of the pho was not good as it left me so thirsty.  I will not be going back for any more pho in Madison as I don't think they compare to California pho imo.
