        I like this place very much

        This restaurant is very clear. Everything is very good, especially beef noodle soup # 8 and special noodle #15. I ate at this restaurant almost every week. The price is decent. Nothing is more than $10. There is a fish pond inside the restaurant and looks very beautiful.

        I like this place

        I like this place very much. It impressed me much. I does look very nice and comfortable in side. The food is so good, especially Pho (Beef Noodle) and VIetnamese Hoagie. I tried a few places in Pittsburgh, but this is the most delicious vietnamese restaurant in town.



        Definitely I will come back and bring some of my friends in.

        The service is terrible. It took 20 minutes before anyone came to our table. We ordered a coffee sua da, pho, and a rice dish. Then for the next 30 minutes, we waited. No coffee. No water. No tea. Nothing. It wasn't even busy. We just got fed up from waiting and told our waiter that we had to go.No apologies from her. She just turned around and left.

        General Info
        Don't let the sunshine fool you. It's April in Pittsburgh, meaning the temperature isn't getting anywhere near anyone's definition of spring. In other words, it was a day for soup, and Adventurous Eater Friend of Munch had just the solution. A few days before, AEFM excitedly mentioned that she'd spotted a new Vietnamese restaurant in the Strip District. And so on an unfortunately cold April day, Munch grabbed Perpetually Starving Co-worker of Munch for a trip to the Strip. Vietnam's Pho was right on Penn Avenue where AEFM described it, and while it looks fairly pedestrian on the outside, it's remarkably nice inside. A stately wooden bar lines one edge of the restaurant, with bright and clean tiles decorating other walls and a giant fish tank in the center of the room. One look at the menu, which starts out with seven varieties of the traditional Vietnamese pho soup (noodles in a long-simmering beef broth) and AEFM already was salivating. To Munch's untrained eye, the dishes looked rather authentic, in the sense that they were authentically using parts of animals that Munch would prefer not to eat. Not only is tripe a frequent visitor to the menu, but there are also dishes including "pork's liver," "pork's heart" and a quail's egg. AEFM wasted no time in ordering Pho Dat Biet ($8.95), an enormous bowl of beef soup packed with beef eye round, flank, tendon, brisket and tripe.
