Pho T&L

I’ve only come here for 1 item - and I’ve done so for years. One of the best Bún Bò Huế’s in town. Proper spicy & very generous with the portion. The mọc and chả they put in are authentic and so reminiscent of what I had in Saigon. Also love that they open until late and that you don’t get the bottom-of-the-pot concentrated salt in your broth even late at night. Certified fresh any given time.

My friends, boyfriend and I just got done completing an escape room and we were wanting to grab something to eat together but it was 9:30pm so a lot of places were closing. Luckily I saw Pho T & L was open and I've had this place saved for a while so this was the best timing to try them out. We arrived and it was pretty busy and we weren't sure if we seated ourselves or someone else seats us as it took a few minutes for us to get noticed. After a little of standing awkwardly near the entrance, someone noticed us and motioned us to sit near the check out area which you do need to go up and pay rather than wait for someone to drop off a check. We were given waters and menus and given a decent amount of time to decide what we wanted. My friends got a lemonade with tea, Thai tea, shaking beef and combo vermicelli while my boyfriend got the shaking beef and egg rolls and I got the Bun Bo Hue and spring rolls. My boyfriend got his egg rolls and I didn't get my spring rolls until after everyone's' order came in so I have a feeling that the employee who took our order forgot or the kitchen forgot. There was no apology or anything for it either. I got my food first, after several minutes the shaking beef came out and after another a while my friend got his vermicelli bowl. Luckily we weren't pressed for time but it made it awkward as we didn't get our food at the same time and it took a bit to get them. I am a slow eater so I guess it worked out that I got mine first but I also didn't receive my spring rolls until I brought it up once we received everything else. The food was phenomenal and our friends said their drinks were perfect too. I did enjoy my Bun Bo Hue, though I did make it a bit more spicier with their chili oil. They have plenty of tables and chairs to accommodate all party sizes. They do have a bathroom but you have to go through a long, scary hallway to get to it. The tables have probably the cutest container for their chili oil but I appreciate that they have napkins, sriracha, hoisin, and utensils on the table. The employees don't really check in often and they didn't really come by to fill our waters until we were down with our meal. The service was also pretty much non-existent, it wasn't rude but just felt rushed and cold.

I have been coming to Pho T&L 1/wk for almost two months now. Never fails that they are packed. Even at 12 am!! The pho is very delicious, and I never need to put extra sauce in there. The sate is very flavorful. Little goes a long way. Highly recommend this place for your late night cravings.

Always on a side quest to find a good bún bò Huế, and on a rainy day, a hot bowl of soup was exactly what I needed. We ordered the bún bò Huế and the beef stew bò kho. Both were very flavorful with rich, comforting broths. The portions were generous, with a good amount of meat in each bowl. Service was really quick, and there was plenty of parking.

Awesome! I found myself stuck overnight after a delivery and started to get hungry. I saw this place just across the street. I love pho so I walked over. I’m glad I did. …
