I've had pho from almost all of other resteraunts around town, I love the stuff. Wanted to give this place a try after seeing good reviews. I got the beef pho delivered via doordash. First sip of the broth and wow- holy saltiness! It was saltier than any pho I've gotten from anywhere else. I love salt too and can't stand when food is under seasoned.

If you are new to Anchorage or a tourist this is in the heart of a nice shopping area and very convenient.
The owner seems to be running it and waited on us. He is very attentive and a great server. He does come up to table just shortly after you sit down, someone else in these reviews didn't like that. I loved it. He is just very attentive and good. If you need more time just say it. He offered us a to-go box for my son's left over noodles. He is just...
