Excited for a new Vietnamese restaurant; there aren't many in this area. Maxim is my favorite restaurant based on quality of food, but the service has become very unfriendly (to the point that I feel uncomfortable even picking up my food there). Rice Paper down the street from me is good, but a little pricey and trendy for an ethnic restaurant (and the "mix-ins" they provide with the pho are VERY MUCH lacking [no cilantro!]).
At Pho House, I ordered takeout of beef pho (I ordered it with no beef, just noodles and broth... my vegetarian compromise) and the shrimp spring rolls. The broth had a much stronger beef flavor than the balance I'm used to at Maxim. Tasted a little overpowering to me, but I still enjoyed a good bowl of pho. They didn't skimp on the mix-ins :) And the noodles were separated from broth, but soft, not requiring any further boiling at home.
Shrimp rolls tasted great, but I did not realize they came with pork inside also (menu didn't specify).
Wonderful, friendly service. Looking forward to trying more of their food.
