Another fantastic spot for some pho in the city! Can’t recommend enough!
From the moment that we sat down, my expectations had already been let down. The utensils that were at the table were already dirty, with leftover food on them. It took us awhile to flag our server down to get it replaced too. The food came out quick, once we ordered. But it was honestly super mediocre. Really limited selection of Pho, compared to a lot of the other places nearby.
The pho was okay, however they gave us clearly dirty utensils. Raises the question of what else wasn't cleaned properly. Pho was not worth it, will not come back again
Doordash order. Food came hot and packaged neatly. Pho dac biet was tasty, but a bit oily; all the fixin's were included: rating 4 / 5. Bo La Lot was very good: tender, sweet, and had a smokiness that tasted fresh. Rating 4/5. Bun Rieu was not good and do not recommend; there were no puffy tofu and crab meat! Rating 2/5. Finally, the Lotus salad was good as expected; rating 4/5. I would order from here again and try other dishes.
Without a doubt one of my favorite spots for Vietnamese food in Chicago. I always order the Bo La Lot to share because it’s customizable and comes with a large assortment of fresh veggies and herbs. I also highly recommend their Hu Tieu Kho, a dry noodle dish with so many delicious components. I ordered this when I dined in and even got another to-go! Honestly, you can’t wrong with anything on the menu, and the portion sizes and prices are great.
