| - Good to see a small and unique to-go/sit down restaurant that is actually focused on consistency and good food. The "No Pho" sign at the counter is hysterical, but this only tells me one thing, they have a focused menu that doesn't try to do too much.
It's alway the same gent at the till. Always courteous, and in his 'Niners hat. Looks like he actually runs the show there, good to see customer service consistency.
Why Go There: The classic Banh Mi, listed as #1 on the menu. It's got a good kick so you may need to ask them to hold the spicy peppers. I was advised that their bread has taken forever to craft to the right texture and feel of the proper Banh Mi baguette. It doesn't destroy the roof of your mouth, it's crunchy but soft on the inside. Made offsite, these scrumptious vessels come from a bakery here in the Valley. The ribeye Banh Mi is also outstanding. The price point for everything is spot on, perfect for a hefty lunch (mostly under $7).
Don't Miss: the Vietnamese coffee. It's a staple, as well as the fresh squeezed OJ. The Vietnamese Spring Rolls, are taste very authentic and are well priced.
Overall: It's a gem. The place is always busy, sure wish there were more of these in the Valley, bit of a weird location.
