"I note that Pho #1 recently replaced Chilli Thai Bistro at 1799 Commonwealth Ave. in Brighton, right by the Chiswick stop on the Green Line. The Brighton location is the third for Pho #1, which also has locations in Waltham and Woburn, as confirmed by an employee at the Waltham location. Its menu features Vietnamese dishes as well as items from several other Asian cuisines, including satay, dumplings, banh mi, and takoyaki; it also serves Vietnamese soups like bo vien (a noodle soup with beef meatballs) and, of course, pho. The Brighton location is open Monday–Thursday 11:30 a.m.–10 p.m., Friday–Saturday 11:30 a.m.–11 p.m., and Sunday noon–10 p.m." - Terrence Doyle
