I would give this place 3.5 stars. The food from this place is solid. They are consistently quick and the food is fresh and hot. I usually go to this place for pho as I find the beef broth to be flavourful and tasty. This place is always busy and always frequented by asians (which is a good sign). While this is not my most favourite pho place, this is probably one of the best places in the northwest part of the city for pho. While it is not truly in the northwest, it is not that far away. The prices are reasonable and the portions are good. I like going to Pho Thanh for good quality pho without having to drive all the way downtown for it.
