The fragrance coming from the restaurant was amazing. I was waking to Humble Pie and smelled Vietnamese food, specifically pho. I didn't realize they are neighbors to humble pie. I didn't want to try this place because I saw the prices and it was higher than what I was used to paying for authentic Vietnamese food. But then, we ARE in Scottsdale and we are paying for the service and ambience.
I ordered beef pho. I always taste the broth first before adding condiments. I like my broth clean. I guess it can't be too clean because of the beef. The noodles seemed over cooked. But when I added Sriracha, mint, bean sprouts, cilantro, jalapeño peppers, and lime...it all came together. I was enjoyed the pho, surprisingly. I didn't expect too much because of the restaurant being in Scottsdale. But I'll definitely come back. The have happy hour!
