"Tucked away in a North Austin strip mall is Pho Phong Lu'u—home to some of the best pho in Austin. Expect a wait during lunch hours on the weekends, where the crowds lining the sidewalk almost start to outnumber the folks inside. Don’t worry, it moves fast. We also really like that they open at 10am—because sometimes there’s no better way to start your morning than with a hot bowl of pho." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
