Editorial Review for Bo Ky – by Citysearch Staff
The Scene
Bo Ky is a Vietnamese no-frills noodle shop with some 30 different soups. Don't expect much ambiance--despite a recent expansion, you may be asked to sit with strangers, and you'll be served tea in styrofoam cups.
The Food
Outstanding soup choices include the chicken curry, which mixes egg noodles with eggplant, potatoes, and fresh lemon, all in a spicy coconut curry broth. Or belly up to the beef belly soup, made with wide chow fun noodles and a thick, beefy broth. Lighter broth soups are available with noodles and seafood, fish, duck, pork, or meat balls in almost any combination you can imagine. Although the menu lists barbecued duck and chicken dishes, you're better off sticking to the soups.

vernakular - what are you expecting? it is a noodles soup shop they wouldn't have 'plate' even if they do the plate is too large so wth are you complaining about. sherrieszeto - wth are you expecting for such a cheap price and just maybe you eat like a monster that is why the proportion isn't enough! I have been eatting there for many years and it still taste the good as always. If you go their order only noodles soup or dry noodles which come with a small bowl of soup. Also they are famous for their duck. So either order noodles soup or duck on rice though it might be a tad small proportion so order it with noodles soup which will fill you up more =D
Pros: Tastey noodles soup and Duck plus it is cheap!
Cons: non

I think BoKy is one the best cheap noodle places around. Sure it's not much of a place, the waiters are not that friendly, but hey, it's $5 for a great meal! My favorite one is the egg noodle with wontons get extra meatballs and soup on the side!
Pros: Good food, cheap (super cheap!)
Cons: Service not that great
