So-so pho in PB
Reviewed By howie Sep 02, 2007
Tags: pho

Vietnamese food must really be coming into its own. This is the second pho place to open this year in Pacific Beach, better known for its bars and boardwalk food than homey Asian fare. But I'm not complaining, I would love it if there were a decent pho joint on every street corner.

Green Papaya takes up a big space previously inhabited by a Chinese buffet place. The decor is nicer than you see in most pho places.

My friend and I both decided to order the pho. When the friendly waitress brought us our food, the first thing we noticed was how skimpy the garnishes were. They brought one plate with one stem of basil, one lime wedge, and a tiny bit of bean sprouts. Even for one bowl of pho this would be skimpy, but this was for two bowls. So we asked for more.

The pho itself was not bad. I really liked the deeply flavored broth. Unfortunately the meat was on the tough side.

Given that it's in PB and the rent is probably higher, the prices were also a bit higher. I think that Pho Sao Bien just down the street is a better bet for a pho fix if you're in Pacific Beach.
