Interesting Features

Maybe not interesting, but useful. 6.50 gets you the large Pho tai, including tax. And its excellent. They are supposed to specialize in spring rolls, but I'm not seeing a major difference in the standard fare. Their lunch sets, (skewers+rice+chicken, etc) however, are better than average, and still under 9 bucks all in.

Its big and roomy, does busy lunch, popular with the city officials who show up en masse in work casual khakis. Leslie Snopes would give it the thumbs up. Good for families, too, they took on 4 toddlers at one table without panicking. It has a nice 1970's hair salon feel to it, spacious, rec-roomy, yet still cheerful.


Downers

Its next to that creepy 'Family Style' restaurant, and I avoided it forever because I thought they all the same place. Look closer, they are definitely not.
