| - Used to come here often and then for about a year I didn't come anymore.
Today, after a long day at work I was driving in the area and I felt in need to have some comfort food and especially hot since today is very cold. So here I am again.
Jade pho is still run by the same owner and the service is still handle by the same server who's demonstrated to handle the service in the same fast and efficient way.
I had the old classic dish: house special which consist in rice noodles with beef, beef tendons, cartilages, meatballs, beef tripes all served in a delicious homemade beef broth.
The whole bowl comes as usual with the boost of cilantro, mint leafs and sprouts.
The only downside I believe that the amount of side greens has been reduced. Not so sure why but as far as my memory can recall from my recent trip to Vietnam, the serving of herbs is usually very very generous because that's what Vietnamese love to death when they are having pho.
Now, believe me when I say that I do understand that we are not in Vietnam here, but since before the portions of mint, cilantro and sprouts were more abundant than what I observed today, and knowing that the owner is Vietnamese, I was expecting the same quantity: no more no less.
Overall Pho Jade is still a very good place for the quality they serve but this time I want to adjudicate only 3 stars just because I found the portion of the greens reduced.
