| - I really can't rate anything except the Pho, but that's because I can't get past the pho! I too was introduced to Pho about 6 months ago. Since then I've tried 3 different restaurants for pho. I was craving it one night when my son reminded me that there was a new place around the corner. I went over and ordered the Chicken Pho to go. I mentioned to the gentleman at the counter (also the owner) that I hadn't tried their restaurant before. Before I could blink, I had a small plate or grilled pork and chicken to try. The chicken was nice and tender, but the pork was amazing! One of these days I will actually order a spring roll!
The best part about this restaurant is the owners. I brought my parents in, whom I had recently introduced to Vietnamese food (specifically pho) and told the owner that this was their first time there. He immediately offered to let my dad try the chicken and pork, but my dad was already set on the pork, so he had the Pork rice plate - Thit Nuong. This was as good as he's had and loves the jasmine rice! My mom had the noodle plate, with chicken. She liked it, but after seeing my pho she wished she ordered that!
Back to the owners quickly. The owners are husband and wife. After the wife was done cooking, she came out to speak with us, make sure we were happy and to explain a little bit of her recipes. She had said she hoped to have a restaurant where you felt like you were with family. I think she's well on her way to that! I am in there at least once a week, or I send my son in. She now knows us by name, and asks every time how we are doing! It's a great place!!
