I'm giving #1 Pho 3 stars because the staff is so friendly. Other then that the food was below average. I love pho.....i mean I really LOVE pho. It's the absolute best thing on a cold winter day. I ended up at #1 Pho because my usually spot was closed on Mondays. I ordered the Vietnamese Beef Stew. It was nothing but salt. I believe they use a broth mix and I think mine ended up with to much mix in it. It also did not come with noodles as I expected. The waitress brought me a bowl of noodles when I asked and that helped a little bit with the saltiness. But I ended up not finishing it. They took 10% of my bill without my asking which was nice. But save your sodium intake for a month and go to Superior Pho which is around the corner. The make thier broth from scratch and it is delicious.
