"Dipping Tiger is a phở specialist. The house special, phở đặc biệt, is what you order when nothing else will fill or fix you. Its floral, herb-perfumed consomme is light but deeply flavorful and still fresh despite the multiple tender cuts of beef inside. When you need a quiet respite from the chaos of Chinatown, downing a ripping hot bowl of silky vermicelli noodles and broth in this windowless restaurant feels soothing." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
