| - Yes, this place is one of a thousand Pho places in Chinatown. And it is pretty much on par with most of the other places down there. But for me the best thing about this place is the service. The ladies who always seem to be here are incredibly cordial and helpful, and always chit chat with me while I wait for my food.
Agree or Disagree I always seem to feel like an outcast when I go by myself anywhere in Chinatown, and often get a feeling like "why are you here?"
But here at Kinh Do they seem genuinely appreciative of my business, and I really enjoy the food as well.
I typically always order the same thing when I go for vietnamese.
-Pho with all of the meats & extra TRIPE
-Banh Mi with shredded pork skin
-Pork skin spring rolls
Overall, the Pho broth is a little light. It has great flavor, but I like the consistency to be a little more oily. But the Banh Mi is amazing, with great bread, and much larger than most other places, but still a great deal at only $3. And the pork skin spring rolls are the best I have had anywhere with huge chunks of pork skin with lots of meat.
The only reason I can't give them 5 stars is both times I've gone there have been small issues with my order. The first time I only got a few pieces of tripe despite ordering the extra, and the second time I forgot to order the extra tripe and I got no tripe whatsoever.
If you are in search of that perfect bowl of Pho, In my opinion this isn't it. But if you are really into the Banh Mi and friendly service, then I highly recommend this place.
