Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week: April 3 | Eater DC

"The soaring Vietnamese replacement fills a hole on the somewhat-desolate dining strip across from Safeway and the Waterfront Metro stop and does more than just noodles well: a fabulous pork banh mi — a sizable sandwich — is just $10, and the namesake beef brisket pho is a solid choice on a cold night. Generously portioned starters are worth it, particularly summer rolls “jam-packed with shrimp” ($7). Slick dumplings get a nice texture contrast from crunchy ginger shavings, the Vietnamese iced coffee “is as strong as it gets,” and pickup orders hold up nicely on the walk home." - Eater Staff
