i've only ordered pho from pho kim long so i can only comment on that. with that being the case...i've tried about 4 other vietnamese restaurants, and this has to be my favorite place for pho. whenever i get pho i'm never able to finish it, but i always seem to finish the pho at pho kim long. if someone can recommend another place i can try, please do. i usually order pho tai chin (rare beef & brisket) or sometimes just pho tai (rare beef).
