"Pho 75 is located in a strip mall right off Washington Ave. and you really can’t miss it—there’s a huge yellow banner on the side of the building with “Pho 75” written in red block letters at least six times. Your options at this classic Little Saigon spot are both very narrow and limitless. You’re getting pho (it’s pretty much the only thing on the menu), but there are at least 50 different combinations you can make with the meat alone. The well-done brisket and eye-round beef are what we always get, but get whatever feels right because there’s no bad bowl to be had here. And the broth—which is light and savory, meaty and herbal—is arguably the best in the city." - alison kessler
