Pho U Review

The Northwest burbs finally have a respectable pho stop. Pho U(23 E. Dundee Rd, Buffalo Grove) has been serving up their noodle soup for almost a year now, and last weekend when I was sitting down to my big bowl of pho, it finally dawned on me: review this place dummy.

If you don't know, pho is Vietnamese rice noodle soup made with beef broth served with a side plate of lime slices, bean sprouts, peppers and fresh herbs. Traditionally considered peasant food, Pho has quickly found a home in the hearts of cuisine connoisseurs around the world.

If you've already had your fill of pho, try some of there other dishes like cold soba, or the marinated shaved pork.

Unlike most pho shops around, Pho U is surprisingly clean and supports a modern decor. Not to mention, the wait staff is always great and know their pho.

Don't think you'll be paying big prices at Pho U. You can expect to pay just over $10 a person for appetizers and entrees. If you've never tried Vietnamese cuisine, Pho is a safe first go around.
Rating: 9/10
