"The glittery chandelier that hangs above the large, otherwise generic beige-tiled dining area of this Vietnamese noodle house might seem like an unusual touch. But pho this good (it’s at the top of our pho guide) deserves to be admired in the best light. It’s hard to recommend just one—they have the largest selection in town—but get a bowl with the rare beef, which is so tender it nearly falls apart as it makes the trip from the bowl to your mouth." - nina reeder, jacinta howard, juli horsford
