"Phodega attempts reverse psychology with signs reading “Don’t try it. You won’t like it.” Well, this Vietnamese American restaurant’s food stars in this fast-casual restaurant-cum-corner store. In 2023, co-owners Nate Hoops and Anthony Ngo closed their duo of locations in Pilsen and Wicker Park for a move to a larger space slated to open Friday, August 11. Check out the new digs and the Viet dip, a succulent spin on the French dip with a beef banh mi and a side of pho." - Ashok Selvam, Naomi Waxman, Eater Staff
