"I'd recommend this place highly for two situations: 1.) You are on the west side of town and you want some reasonably priced grub, 2.) You've never had Vietnamese food and you want to try it out in a non-intimidating environment. For those two things, PA is awesome! \n\nNice people, decent food, and a very friendly environment. But their food doesn't stack up to the central Phoenix standard bearers.\n\nI suppose that their score is artificially low because of the category they are competing in. Were they the only game in town, I suspect I would have rated them much higher - just to get my hands on a Bahn Mi every now and again."^^ . "1"^^ . . "2011-01-02T00:00:00"^^ . "3"^^ . . "3"^^ .
