Whenever I'm craving a bowl of pho, but don't want to drive out to Buford Highway or Duluth, DUA Vietnamese is the best spot I've tried in the Midtown area.
I typically get the House Pho which includes a variety of meat, a healthy portion of noodles, and clean and warm beef broth. As a self-proclaimed pho connoisseur, I think they give a great variety of beef cuts such as flank, steak, and meatballs. If you get it to-go, they also provide you with a baggie of bean sprouts, fresh herbs, jalapenos, limes, and a little container of hoisin and sriracha sauce (dip the meat in this sauce, trust.)
I love how clean the broth always is as well. If you've had pho, you know the broth can be a little oily at times, which makes the dish pretty heavy overall. Of my probably 10 times I've ordered from DUA, I have yet to experience oily broth - which is saying alot! Not to mention, the broth is still packed with flavor and truly ties the whole dish together.
I've tried the Bun Bo Hue here once, and while it wasn't very memorable, I think they fell short for me on the noodle type. Traditionally, Bun Bo Hue is served with thick, round rice noodles, however the noodles I received were thin, and seemingly did not compliment the dish in the same way.
Overall - totally recommend coming here if you're looking to get a bowl of pho in the middle of the city!
