I'm from Vietnam and can vouch for the fact that this place is LEGIT for some very tasty and authentic Pho. Excellent Pho is determined by the broth that comes with it and 43rd Express' broth is GREAT!!! This is my favorite place for Pho in the Valley and we come here at least once a week so I can get my Pho fix. My Caucasian fiance won't eat the yummy Pho but can get the BBQ fried rice that David (his family owns this great restaurant) fixes for him. The pork fried rice is really good also! We also love coming in to see David as he treats us like old friends and are great to all his customers! Can't really beat this place. We love the food and the service we get from David and his staff!! See you this weekend David!!
