"A bowl of phở at Quê Việt in SoMa is like your favorite pair of worn-in jeans: not flashy, but dependable. Out of the seven options on the menu, go for the phở tai sườn bò with beef short rib and ribeye. The hulking piece of short rib arrives bone-in, is as tender as a loaf of freshly baked bread, and the almost-see-through ribeye completes the bowl. This place is never busy, making this the perfect near-Oracle spot post-game." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
