Description
The traditional banh mi and bún (pronounced “boon”) served here deserve a taste, but newcomers display a serious lapse in judgment by not ordering the pho at this tiny, unadorned joint, especially since the menu offers 22 varieties. Try the restaurant’s specialty, dac biet—a mighty bowl of the requisite rice noodles accompanied by slices of round steak, flank steak, fatty brisket, tendon, tripe, and beef meatballs. The size of the beverage menu rivals that of the pho menu, from rich and sweet Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk over ice to salted lemonade (chanh muoi) and an avocado smoothie (sinh to bo).
