Pho Thang Long has an unusually nice atmosphere. An almost unnoticeable water-wall and a fancy pants high ceiling like some hollowed out bank is nothing I’d ever seen or expect in a Vietnamese joint. I feel like they’re going to bring me out my lockbox along with some pho.
Pho Tai Chin (#5?) is my favorite. A large bowl seems like you get the same amount of food…. floating in more broth. hmmm… slick. However, it’s pretty good for restaurant pho. I’ve only tried a few of the rice dishes here, and they do not seem up to par with the similarly priced restaurants nearby.

Remember that warm, framed welcome you had at the door? EXPECT the standard Vietnamese waiter’s slightly annoyed, I-might-spit-in-your-pho attitude. As my Cuz says: “that’s why at Vietnamese places you’re allowed to tip 50 cents.”

Thanh My Restaurant – Westminster http://www.hungryhuy.com/dining-out/thanh-my-restaurant-westminster/ http://www.hungryhuy.com/dining-out/thanh-my-restaurant-westminster/#comments Sun, 06 Sep 2009 22:46:30 +0000 Huy Vu http://hungryhuy.com/blog/?p=15 When night time rolls around and the thought of fries makes me sour, Little Saigon is my go-to place and Thanh My is one of my favorite destinations.
You’ve got to love a place where six ladies work the kitchen while all the men buss tables and work the floor.

The menu is THICK. Don’t worry if you don’t read Vietnamese!–there are photos for most of the dishes! This menu does change to a smaller, photo-less one sometime after 10pm.

I enjoy the Com Tam Bi dishes (shredded pork/skin with broken rice) and the Vietnamese iced coffee here. Nom!

+ accepting credit cards (at a Vietnamese place. WoW!)
+ open late night
+ affordable, decent $6-$10 dishes.
- creepy men (customers)
- having to guard a lockless SHARED bathroom for the ladies
