First of all this place gets extra points for it's pricing (their phos are all around $9 for medium and $10 for large) and the fact that they gave me a free cup of tea while I waited for my takeout order. Plus it's one of the few places I've come across where you can tell that their spring rolls are made from scratch (Do it! You're already getting pho which is super healthy!). And if you're worried they serve the spring rolls in those foam containers with the pieces cut out to keep it fresh and crispy for takeout.
I got the large size beefy satay pho which I found big enough for two dinners, and it comes with the usual suspects: rice noodles (with spring onions), bean shoots, beef (some of which was rare), onion, hoisin sauce, and a tiny chilli pepper (adorable). Plus a small tub of satay sauce.
I've recently become addicted to pho since discovering Pho Phuong Vi Noodle House on 16 Ave NW and... this place just doesn't quite have the same quality. The beef in my soup was served very thinly sliced and just isn't quite the same 'pho' me. Having said that, it's still tasty and great for your budget.
PS The restaurant is bigger than I imagined, with the 'cheap and cheerful' decor you probably expect in Chinatown.
