| - Listen,
I am a lover of all things Pho, and Bahn mi. I have high expectations and an endless appetite for delicious broth and crunchy sweet and sour sandwiches.
This. was. Amazing.
Maybe its because its been a while since I've had REALLY good Pho (like California good). But my wife and I were both blown away by how good everything was.
We ordered 2 drinks (Beer and a Mixed cocktail) both delicious, and our bartender/server was wonderful.
We got 1 Pho with Sliced Ribeye and one Grilled Pork Bahn Mi
Pho - more like Pho-nominal! It was so effing good. The broth on its own was a more intensifed flavor than I have had with Pho in the past, and the accompaniments were fresh and delicious. Only slight complaint we had was we wish there was more cilantro - but we're nuts about the stuff so for normal people it is probably fine.
The Bahn mi - my love, my one true passion in life...ok ok not really but seriously it is my all time favorite sandwiches, so I got high expectations. Listen up ya'll, this sandwich delivers, the pork (Pork belly btws) was grilled to perfection crispy outside, smooth fatty and delicious in the middle and just so tasty, covered in a deliciously sweet heavily spiced sauce, that to me tasted like their house made housin sauce turned up to 11. Tucked in the roll which was coated with garlic mayo, and pickled cucumber (not pickles), carrots and dikon were shoved in with some raw Jalapenos and plenty of cilantro. SO FREAKING GOOD.
tiny complaint here was the pickled veg definitely could have been more pickled, but it was still so good. Who doesn't love a little extra pickle in their life though eh?
All in all, this is definitely a place we'll be visiting often, very, very good.
