I ordered pho and lemongrass chicken. The pho was bland and terrible. Pho 32 was wonderful in comparison (and I think Pho 32 isn't that great). And the lemongrass chicken wasn't any better as well. The sauce tasted vaguely of tomato ketchup and was quite cloying. I've given up on good Vietnamese in Midtown. The best place for Vietnamese in Manhattan is Chinatown. But if you count the five boroughs, it would be in Sunset Park. I did take-out from the place once and it was probably the worst Vietnamese food I’ve ever had. I ordered pho and lemongrass chicken.
