my friend and i stumbled on this place nearly a decade ago when we failed finding an indian restaurant. the moment we walked in tay do's doors was the most serendipitous culinary moment of my life. every trip to the greater cleveland area HAS to include dinner at tay do; it's without question.
their honey garlic tofu is among the most delicious appetizers. ever. you get just enough to share with two-three other people (if one friend doesn't gobble it all up first), and the excess sauce tastes lovely on white rice. the pho broth is spiced perfectly, and if you get the #1 pho (i think), you get LOADS of tripe and tendon. this may dissuade some diners, but they don't know what they're missing.
the rice and non-pho noodle dishes are awesome, too. when i decide to eat something other than pho (doesn't happen often), i get the peppered steak and tomatoes. the meat is tender and the tomatoes give a slightly sweet tang to the dish.
if only i was in cleveland right now...
