Pho Viet Huong Review

The best Vietnamese restaurant in Chinatown is Pho Viet Huong. The menu is vast and needs intense perusing, but your waiter will help you. The Vietnamese know soup, and pho, a beef-based soup served with many ingredients, is the most famous, but the hot-and-sour canh soup is the real deal. The small version is more than enough for two to share. The odd pairing of barbecued beef wrapped in grape leaves is another of the restaurant’s specialties and should not be missed, while the bun, various meats and vegetables served over rice vermicelli, is simple, hearty, and inexpensive. All of the above is best washed down with an icy cold Saigon beer.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
