| - On Election Day 2016, CO offered half priced Pho bowls. Pho has become one of my "things" here recently, so I decided to give it a shot. I looked over the menu before hand and decided on the pho bo vien, a noodle bowl made of meatballs, and rice vermicelli, herbs, served in a beef broth. I arrived soon after their opening time of 11:00am. There wasn't a designated front of the house person but the staff did a good job of rotating the waiters in and out as guests arrived. The place was still pretty empty with a few tables occupied. I was seated and told of the half priced Pho bowls special.I promptly ordered my Pho bowl. As I waited, I looked over the menu. There were a number of items that caught my eye, especially the chili wings, the ahi poke, and the Dark & Peach cocktail. Wait time was a little longer than expected. I received my hot and fragrant pho bowl with all the fixings after about 20 minutes of waiting. I dove in to find a bundle of noodles covered with broth. By the end of my meal, I was still digging through the noodles in search of more delicious broth! I would've enjoyed more broth and less noodles. Next time, I will make a request for less noodles to avoid this issue. By the time I left, the lunch rush was in full swing. There was also a greeter at the front of the house who wished me well as a I left the restaurant. I'll be back to try the bar bites, the cocktails, and maybe a different bowl.
