I know you want me to say it, so here goes. Let me just say this place is pretty Pho King good. Now that the obligatory pun has been uttered, it's time to get down to business.
Pho King is the new Vietnamese restaurant in the south side of town, located on the treacherously congested Eastern Ave. It's a small shop with a simple modern flair, topped with a nice little glass pane waterfall at the entrance.
The menu is simple compared to a lot of other pho shops. There are only 5 choices of pho. I opted to create my own bowl and I was allowed to choose three types of meat. I chose the brisket, tendon, and flank. Don't worry, though. If you don't want pho, there are other options on the menu like appetizers, vermicelli, and rice dishes. You know, the standards.
For the $9.25 price tag, you'd think you wouldn't be getting your money's worth considering all the cheaper options around town, but the bowl they serve you with is pretty large. Well worth the price. They provide plenty of noodles, meats, and garnish. Although I do wish they put more onions into the mixture.
The flavor of the broth was flavorful, and the noodles were cooked just right. I was surprisingly pleased. For a restaurant that has a funny name, their food is no joke.
