Hits the spot for those after-club nights!
Not sure why this place always feels so grimy and smells a little weird, but this is my fave spot to get Chicken Pho (Pho Gat?). You know when you go to pho places and sometimes the soup smells off or it tastes like plastic? The broth here is pretty good, and the chicken is not too dry. I used to get the beef house special but it's way too greasy for my liking now. I've also tried the avocado milkshake here and it's not too bad. Definitely not fresh or anything but it's not bad.
It's usually a quick meal since pho doesn't take too long to make and they have tons of servers, which I appreciate.
Hard to say what makes a 5-star bowl of pho but for the dining experience overall, I give Xe Lua 3 stars (but that won't keep me from coming back, this is definitely still one of my go-to spots).
