"Turtle Tower’s Northern Vietnamese flavors have made this humble Tenderloin spot a major success in San Francisco. But it doesn’t get more classic than their digs in the Little Vietnam stretch of Larkin in the Tenderloin (though the restaurant moved down a few doors from its original space). Turtle Tower’s staple is pho ga, made with free range chicken broth and house-made rice noodles: Get it with giblets for more punch." - Paolo Bicchieri, Eater Staff
