My friend even say it and thanks me because we got lucky to find this good resto and good menu 😊
During the holiday season, Google hours aren’t as reliable as we’ve dropped by a few times when Google said it was open but wasn’t. So if you’re craving pho during the winter holiday season then make sure to call to verify they’re open.
Once you’re here this place is pretty spot on as those in Vietnam and little Saigon in San Jose and OC. The owners are from Vietnam (Ho Chị Minh) so the pho flavors and bun bo hue is correct. They even have veggies with the noodle soups. Each noodle soup had so much meat! The mango salad was delicious! This is definitely authentic pho near the Vatican. A lot of the diners during our visit were Vietnamese and other Asian American.
The amenities like the restroom is super clean—I didn’t have to use my Lysol spray and wipe. But like most Italian places there’s no toilet seat covers so bring your own. The stall is enough to fit 1 adult and 2 little kids.
I order Pho Bo Tai
- Meat is super tender and juicy. Very easy to chew.
- Soup is very flavorful, yet comforting.
- Price is affordable. Small size is €9, large size is €11. With generous meat.
The drink, Lemonade mint tea is very delicious too!
Definitely a gem.
The street outside is a bit dark and empty at that hour, but the restaurant itself is bright and clean (except for the toilets).
Loved how they keep the ginger in the phở and even have fermented garlic on the table, it really reminded me of northern-style phở in Vietnam. The trà chanh was also perfect, just like back home.
Staff were really nice too.
