Vietnamese - Pho 36

Pho 36
1147 S Western Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90006
(323) 766-5329
personal rating: 3.5/5.0

Jun claimed that he has not yet had pho in Los Angeles, and so we decided to go to Pho 36 -- a restaurant that Jen and I found a while back. Our party of four -- Jun, Xiaoxun, Jen and I -- got summer rolls and eggrolls for appetizers. They were up to their usual standards and were absolutely delicious. I personally find them to be the main reason why I keep coming back to this restaurant. Jun and I decided on the pho tai, and we were slightly disappointed as the soup lacked its usual flavor. Xiaoxun ordered a vermicelli rice noodles with steak and shrimp while Jen got the vermicelli rice noodles with eggrolls and shrimp. The steak, shrimp and eggrolls that dressed the rice noodles were well flavored resulting in an enjoyable dish. I know I will definitely come back here again, but I'll probably avoid the pho and go for their vermicelli or rice dishes.
