Vietnamese restaurant · Tacoma

"Lunar’s is on a street with several other pho joints, but this is the one you want. Why? It’s their luscious beef rib pho, which comes with two massive, meaty dinosaur bones stuck defiantly in the middle of your bowl. It’s a spectacle to behold, and especially once you see the tender meat slide into the soup the second you touch the bones. Steak and ginger pho, served with a Chinese doughnut and cilantro in place of basil, is another unique item — the steak in the soup is rolled around superfine matchsticks of ginger that gradually gingembrify the whole bowl. Don’t forget a buttery slice of housemade banana cake for dessert." - Meg van Huygen, Sue Kidd
