Daughter and I went to this new pho place on Craig and Valley to see if it was a place that we would want to go to again. The restaurant was welcoming but I didn't like the Buddhist shrine on the floor. It made me feel weird walking close to it. The place was clean and the staff was friendly and courteous.
We ordered two bowls of pho, the combination one was $9.50 but didn't have the tendons, tripes or brisket meat. The other bowl was $8.50 for a meat pho. The broth was really good. It lacked the chili paste or chili to add to the pho. I didn't care for the chopsticks, it was like the ones you get from a Chinese takeout places. I preferred real chopsticks or the ones that are longer. I just wish they would have a large and small bowl, otherwise it wouldn't get a "4" star. I would rather have a Vietnamese restaurant like the ones in Chinatown.
I would recommend anyone to try it out, pho was really good but had small amount of noodles. I like it because it's close to my house, but I still want it to be competitive with the other pho restaurant in town. I know they are catering to less Asian population over here but there are a lot of people who know what to expect from a Vietnamese restaurant.
