If I wrote a review for Number One Pho a year ago, I would be giving it a 2 star review. But I was back at this Vietnamese restaurant because I didn't make it in time to get to Superior Pho (my favourite vietnamese place in Cleveland), and honestly, I was pleasantly surprised!
The service I received was prompt and courteous. The server inquired about our food and seemed genuinely interested as to whether we appreciated the food or not. The food was bought out quickly and piping hot.
For the food, we ordered the fried tofu as starters, and the seafood soup and curry tofu as main courses.
The fried tofu ($5) was a delectable soft tofu with a light crispy tempura batter that set it off perfectly. Coupled with the ginger sauce, and it was a really tasty beginning.
The fish soup was a good sized bowl of pho - you could just about finish it if you were ravenous (which we were) and was really tasty. Had meatballs consisting of crab and shrimp... yum
And the curried tofu was served on a bed of piping hot delicate vermicelli noodles that tasted, well, good!
Definitely would go back again (more for the main food than the pho - Superior is still my favourite for that....)
