| - Not that I've tried tons of Vietnamese, but the pho was pretty much all I imagined it would be. I had the #13 (I believe) lunch special with ph tái chín - pho with brisket and steak - and it was delicious. Served with a side of fresh bean sprouts, jalapenos (or maybe serranos), and mint. The broth was already seasoned well and delicious, and had some scallions already in it along with the meat. I also got an order of the summer rolls. They were amazing and comparable to authentic, home made ones I have had in the past. I also tried the fried spring roll - nothing special. Definitely get the hot coffee. It's served in a plastic cup with condensed milk on the bottom, and a coffee strainer on top... you wait for it to drip out and stir your condensed milk along with it. It was way too sweet, but next time I know not to get the condensed milk.
My friend had the chicken fried rice (so boring), and loved it... I guess.
Parking is in the back and it's fairly large so no worries about spots. The restaurant is located in an old building on Superior on the first floor and is super hidden with the entrance in the back, with a few other Asian restaurants on the same floor (Taiwanese, Korean, Japanese). The staff was awesome and friendly. Definitely going back in the fall and winter!
