| - I am from Los Angeles and visiting friends in Las Vegas, and they brought me to this Vietnamese restaurant that's way outside of the typical Chinatown. Rainbow Pho Express is located in the corner of a strip center that even has a drive-thru. The restaurant looks fairly new, appropriately decorated, and the staffs were quite friendly. However, the gem was hidden in that bowl of Pho. In order to give a good contrast to this review, one has to understand that there are plenty of good Pho places in LA, so Rainbow Pho Express landing number one on my favorite Vietnamese restaurant is a serious matter. Now back to the actual review, I ordered the Pho Special, the bowl landed in front of me, and the fragant smell of that broth must required hours of simmering. The noodle was cooked to al-dente, which won't be all soggy and soft by the time you finish the entire bowl. The meat was fresh as the taste of the beef still lingers. I also had a cup of their coffee, and this is the kind of coffee to ensure you will be awake on the drive back to LA kind of caffine dose. My friend ordered the prawns which was served in a mini clay pot, it's not for the light palates, because the sauce is heavily flavored, but of course that's why they bring you a place of rice!
Watch out, Vegas, finally healthier options are available at the drive-thru replacing the typical "2000 calorie burger"!!!
Dear Rainbow Pho:Please notify in advance if you are opening in LA!
