Talk about authentic, this is a place I would be excited to take a Vietnamese foreign exchange student, not because I want to impress them, but so they can translate the menu and get the waiter to bring me another $2.50 beer. I will say, I was a little disappointed that there were no vegetarian pho options, but I don't think authentic pho is vegetarian, so until I learn to say "can I get this without beef" in Vietnamese, I don't deserve it. I will stick with the few veggie options provided, which are delicious, ridiculously cheap, and easily enough for two meals.
