The Scene
Pho Viet Huong may not be fancy, but it's a wonderful value and the food is deeply satisfying. While the decor is a bit bland--a white room with a few fake palm trees and thatched roof--the service is fast and friendly.
The Food
Spring rolls are small, crispy and come with mint and lettuce for wrapping; summer rolls are light, with just enough crunch and green onion flavor, as well as the world's best peanut sauce. The noodle soups are enormous and tasty, especially the beef. Green papaya and beef salad will have you wanting to go back for more as soon as your meal is over. The perfect way to wash it all down is, of course, rich Vietnamese iced coffee.

This restaurant is located on Mulberry Street, far away from the crowded bustle that you typically find in Bowery and Canal street, which is a plus. And the interior is quite gorgeous, though it's small. But don't be fooled - my date and I had high expectations while going into this restaurant, but he unfortunately has low tolerance for MSG. While eating one of the beef dishes, he had a reaction and could not finish the rest of his order. The other dishes, apparently, were also slathered in MSG. I did not notice (perhaps I eat MSG too often), but this does say something about the restaurant's ability to cook high quality food if they are so dependent on this flavoring agent.

I used to love this place but went there yesterday and found a creeping crawling critter in my Pho! The waiter asked if I wanted anything else---no thanks! It's unfortunate because this place used to be one of my favorite vietnamese lunch spots in all of new york, but they seem too busy to follow health codes these days.

Good but not great. Dependable is their grilled pork chop and fried spring rolls. The pho is good but sometimes really bland.
