| - 'I like a "Big Wang," I cannot lie...With tasty "Wang Sauce" I don't deny.'... Aye, get your mind outta the gutter! It's the name of the sandwich bangin' here at Pho King Phonomenal Noodle Lab & Grill!
It's not your traditional pho place that's for sure. Thai fusion cuisine, some with double entendre named dishes pepper the menu. Ahh hah!...Hence the name of the restaurant as well.
Been coming here since their "secret" grand opening back in November. When Pho King Phonomenal had like 8? items on their menu.
Grand Opening: I think went thru and ordered 1/2 that menu.
The standouts: Bang Bang Sliders with tender pulled pork that's been braised a long long time. And Bangkok Burrito, that had rice simmered in chicken fat!... This place will definitely appeal to adventurous foodies and fans of Buddha Belly Deli (the popular Thai Fusion place in 89012 till 2016)
The pho is different. There's bacon infused in there somehow. It did a great job warming you up for cold winter days! But I still prefer Viet style pho. With that said, hardly any pho in LV valley comes close to my favorites in San Jose. Still, it's cool that there's pho in Hendertucky and I would order their Thai style pho again.
Dirty Chips is my latest obsession! Fried wonton chips, fried garlic, chicken skin, scallions, drizzled with bacon jelly and peanut sauce.
If you are a regular, then you'll be privy to the secret menu or secret menu item OTD, also regular customers can get on the rewards program. Work for the COH? You get a discount too.
The staff here rocks! Everyone is welcoming, helpful and friendly, Owner/Chef Gary has a dynamic personality and very passionate about food and cooking. Makes his own ice cream too!
Since November, this place has made awesome strides. And why I bumped my review rating. Started out in a tiny space with 3 tables and one long table where you can only stand. Community support of our locals had this place standing room and line out the doors and demands for open later hours. In three month time, Gary and staff expanded the dining area to accommodate larger groups and include a family friendly lounge area and open early evenings! Something sorely needed here in downtown Henderson.
Finding this place is a b... at first.. even though I was told when I called on the phone, it's right across the chapel, past Santa Rosa Taco Shop, I STILL drove right past this place in the parking lot..lol.....thank goodness someone's car alarm went off that was parked in front. There's signage now, so ya'll shouldn't have no problem finding this place. Right off Water St..Visual cue, the city courthouse where you make the turn onto Basic...and bam you have arrived! Welcome to the Hendo Hood!
