Nam Phuong Restaurant

It was pretty busy for lunch, which I took as a good sign. I started with the spring rolls (two rolls per serving). They were good--your standard spring rolls, which is a-okay with me.

I had the chicken pho. The broth was flavorful, and it was a good alternative to my favorite pho. The Hubs had a caramelized catfish claypot (say that three times fast), and he enjoyed it. So did I...I stole a bite or two. I think stealing your spouses food is par for the course.

Service was average, but that's not necessarily bad.

I'm always happy to find another restaurant to visit to meet my pho fixes.

Slightly better than a cafeteria-style feel and fairly large servings of the usual Vietnamese go-to's. While the quality was fine and they seem to do brisk business, I couldn't help but compare it to my favorite nearby Vietnamese restaurant ... The meats didn't taste as bbq'd, there were less fresh herbs, and they offer no wine or beer. Overall still a good experience though, and super fast.
