I decided to try Pho43; it was small and quaint, like it's been there for decades. The neighborhood was not the most appealing, but I've heard nothing but the best recommendations. It was packed and busy, and had enough sitting for 10 small parties.
Every time I get Pho, I make sure to get brisket and steak and an order of crispy egg rolls. The trip was definitely worth it. The broth was traditional, heavier with onions versus other places I've gone too. Ingredients were all fresh and food was definitely served hot. The egg rolls were very crispy and delicious; if I wasn't so full, I would've ordered more.
I didn't get the chance to try the Macaroons by Binh, but will definitely come back. Make sure to get there early as it get packed. Staff was very nice and friendly.
