Phở Saigon — Restaurant in Alaska

Ordered the combination pho and was not really impressed. The ratio of broth to the actual food was so off. I had to fish for noodles because I barely had any. The broth itself was mid so I had to re-flavor with lots of hoisin and sriracha. Meat tasted like it was in the fridge for too long, and I barely received any veggies so I went ask for more bean sprouts. By the time I added veggies, my bowl actually looked decent.

Im the short kid but anyway I really enjoy the pho here, it was a sastified dish, much better then 5 avenue mall pho. The noodle were alittle hard and still soft which I like it that way.

TO be honest this pho is amazing better then...
