    Best pho I have had in a while! I got the House Special and it gives you everything you want with delicious broth. There was a good amount of flank, brisket, tendon, meatballs, and tripe, with a good helping of noodles too. It's exactly what you want it to be while under 20. I highly recommend this spot and it's super convenient to take the Red Line there.

    Best Bo Kho. Best Banh Bot Loc. Best Khot Vung Tau. Best Bo Kho. Pristine Presentation and Plating. Also!! The Best Banana Fritter with Coconut tapioca pudding. I wish they can focus on opening in Winnetka or Glencoe. The Grilled meat platter with Sunnyside up egg is a specialty.

    This place is a MUST try, one of my favorite Vietnamese food spots and only choice for Pho! Also, one of my favorite places for take out! The pho broth is insanely aromatic and flavorful and comes with all the sides and is so accommodating with extra request or no cilantro request. They give a perfect serving of noodles, do not skimp you like most places. You most definitely get a beyond good serving. I love finding places I know will never disappoint, so I'm happy to share any choice you make here you will be very happy. Havnt had the opportunity to eat in since I live so far away but this place is a 100% must try and come back too!!!

    This place has the cleanest and most flavorful pho broth I have ever tasted. Try their rib broken-rice dish too, it's amazing. If you have fish allergies, make sure to tell the server and they will leave it out of the pho.
