I think of the pho places I've tried this is actually my preferred soup base. On an objective level they may not be the best soup base, but subjectively I find the flavours here to match my taste the best. Dinner specials are also fantastic! The boyfriend and I got the special with chicken pad thai, beef flank pho, shrimp spring rolls and 2 red bean ice drinks all for well under $25 if I recall correctly. Food quality was consistently good among all the dishes, even though I personally didn't like the shrimp spring roll because I didn't like the herb in it but the bf thought it was good. Keep in mind that dinner specials (and presumably lunch specials as well) are cash only! The waitress was nice enough to let me use debit instead though.
We also came back for a pho craving and I ordered and finished a large beef flank pho. They were not at all stingy with the flank! Extremely generous portions of nice fatty flank came with my pho and I loved every bit of it. Also having tried both the thick and thin noodles, I personally think that the thick ones are better! Also servers here are fairly good at English which also put me at ease since my chinese is fairly "meh".
All in all, this will probably be my go to pho place for any cravings in the future. OH and also they're pad thai. That was really good too. I guess Pho Pad Thai is a very appropriate name for this restaurant.
