Stepping in to this busy restaurant is like being transported back to the early 90s pho places I grew up in. The decor is old school, like CRT-TV-in-a-quilted-black-box-above-the-cash old school. The service is fast, efficient and moves as quick as possible - as expected on a busy Sunday night. I ordered a pho with medium rare beef and tendon (#13), but they mixed up my order and gave me tripe instead. After flagging a waiter down and explaining the situation, he came back with an apology and a bowl of tendon to add to my pho. I liked how they remedied the error quickly, even before my pho had time to cool down.
The pho here is not fancy, but is done well and lives up to the expectations. The broth is flavorful, steaming hot and well balanced. The noodles are tender and the chosen topping are good. The rare beef comes floating in the broth and quickly cooks to a medium well in no time. The tendons come in large chucks but are soft and pliable, just how I like them. The side dish of bean sprouts, thai basil leaves, lime wedge and two veggie leaves (that I can't seem to identify) allows you go customize your broth and experience. Glad to have another pho place to recommend.
