Pho Show - Any News?

[banjoboy]

Does anybody know if the westside pho place has opened yet?

[bsquared2]

Tried it and it wasn't very good. Weak broth and gummy noodles. 2 or 3 pieces of beef as well. I was very bummed. Would love to find a good Pho restaurant on the Westside. I can't make it to Alhambra for lunch.

[blueshoes]

Yes it is open.

Has anyone gone to that Pho place, near Sawtelle kitchen, just south of La Grange, on Sawtelle? I always see people there, but haven't tried it yet, out of fear it will be like every other awful Pho place that I have been.

[PandanExpress]

If you're talking about Phoreign, I've been there. It's not awful. It's just barely mediocre. I had the beef pho and it was tasteless. The serving size was small considering the price. The only redeeming thing about it is that they have a vegetarian pho option which I guess would work out if you have vegetarians in your group.

[WORX4FUDE]

No veggieheads here, darn. Well, thanks Pandan... I'll keep looking. Guess I'll have to stick with the neighborhood RamenYa for now. =)

Drove by yesterday. The place looks ready with a big "PHOSHOW" sign outside, and a sheet of paper taped on a window said "Grand Open June 16th." !!!!!!!
I'm praying this place will be decent!! We need a good pho shop on westside sooooooo baaaaaaad!

[wth]

We will open in May :-)

i mean srsly, this name doesn't even make sense to a vietnamese person.

[WORX4FUDE]

Ha ha ha! THAT'S what I was thinking. They pronounce it "Fwaah," right? Ah yes, nothing like getting lost in translation.

[ns1]

Something like that...

definitely not FO-SHO like the name of the restaurant implies.

[fkingford]

the place is completely bare - no chairs, tables, just an empty room - with a ladder forlornly sitting in the middle just as it has for weeks. seems like there might've been a change of plans or second thoughts about opening a pho place on that stretch. but the name's still up.

[mar52]

Where on Sepulbeda, please?

[Adsvino]

Near Washington in Culver City. Also new wine bar Vinoteque going in there, at Sepulveda and Braddock.

[Tapeworm]

The name is enough to keep me away :)

[mstinawu]

Hahahah~ I was thinking the same thing.

[Raachie]

This is literally what I just said out loud before opening this thread..

"PHO SHOW? PHOO SHOOW?
Theres a place thats REALLY called PHO SHOW??"

Oh no.

[Mattapoisett in LA]

I went By tonight to see if I could get some Pho. It was not open. Since Sepulveda was a Zoo I did not get a close look.

Take Care

That's too bad. Does anyone know if/when it will open?
