Gossip Tapioca - West Valley City

The OG boba stop, lots of imitators but nobody comes close

Utah has alot of good viet restaurants, def more than New York, I think. My girl took me here last time I visited and I kept craving it after I left. I got the Pho Bac, with beef filet, and it was so good! The broth was so flavorful, and with a hint of ginger, which I loved. The serving was pretty large, and had more rice noodles than usual places I've had pho. The filet beef was so tender and I like it much better than the usual beef or brisket. The fresh spring rolls with shrimp and pork (more like cha siu) was really good too. We really wanted to try the mango sticky rice, but was too full (I ended up eating half her noodles lol). Can't wait to go back next time I'm in SLC!

Service has gone down hill recently. On my last visit I thought it was just a rough day but I went there for lunch today and it was worse. There were 5 of us on 1 ticket and I got charged 18% for tip. After waiting 30 minutes for our food, seeing others getting their food that came in well after we ordered I asked for our meals to go since we needed to be somewhere. Then our food magically appears. I ordered the Pho Shrimp and there were literally 5 small shrimp in it. The fresh spring rolls had almost no meat. We didn’t get any sauces for the Pho. Needless to say I was extremely disappointed. I have been coming here for years but I think I need to find a new Pho restaurant

The broth is amazing!!!! The food is great! Even though I didn’t dine in my food was still delicious and hot!

This place is not like it used to be. I can taste the powdery texture of the powder mix used for the boba. I love that there are so many different flavors, but it would be great if the quality can keep up. With spots like TeaBar and Tiger Sugar popping up in SLC now, I don't think I would go for boba here.
