Pho XO

Great food, fantastic service, and a nice atmosphere. Menu had a nice variety.

Delicious clay pot chicken dish that I enjoyed on their outdoor patio under the shade of the large umbrella. Great food, nice atmosphere and friendly service.

I believe this Vietnamese restaurant has opened not too long ago, as the tables and seats seemed relatively new. But I was excited to try out a new pho place.

At around 5:30 PM on a weekday - it wasn't busy at all. Maybe there was just one other customer there. But keep in mind that this place is off of Chapel Hill Road, so the traffic could have been an issue.

Now, as for the pho, you can see that the broth is nicely colored. The taste was OK, but it either seemed to lack a couple of spices, or it wasn't boiled long enough. The rare beef was cooked just enough and allowed the hot broth to cook it the rest of the way once it was served. The onions were crunchy, and the noodles weren't overdone.

Good single-serving of sprouts and basil (I don't like it when the give too much, and I feel guilty of wasting them).

I might check this place out again when I'm nearby in the future, but there are a couple of other competitors that are closer to me, so we'll see. :)

The noodle soup has great flavour. The foods are good. So far this is the best one in this area. They opened 3 months only, Hope they can continue maintain good quality of food. By the way, they really need to hire the experience server or train them .
