  This place lives up to its name! It has the best broth! I'm not a fan of pho but I loved this! The lobster pho was $15. I just wish the lobster had been dunked in lemon or lime juice prior to cooking to get rid of that seafood smell. Otherwise, it was perfect. The noodles were good.
  
  The 2nd time I went i got pho (abt $9) with brisket & tendon. It was pretty good. The beef was tender.
  
  My friend got the grilled shrimp rice vermicelli. They were really cheap with the shrimp ($9). There were only like 6 shrimps.
  
  I didn't try the coconut dessert since it contains gelatin & the employees have no idea if its pork gelatin. It looked amazing. I'd like to know what type of gelatin it contains tho.

  Run by Chinese folks. I am Vietnamese and not one word of Viet was spoken. I came in at 10am as this was the time it would open as posted but the waiter said 11am so I returned the next day.
  
  I am from the Bay in Cali so I had to temper my expectations.
  
  Pho broth is average but edible.
  Bone marrow that was included is a novelty and I would presume so is the lobster pho.

  Extremely disappointed with my meal. I order the most basic item from the menu. Grilled pork chop over rice $7.95
  The pork was tough, not a lot of flavor. Its a confusing situation, they serve the food on a oversized plate, the tables are small. We were seating on a table for 7ppl and there was barely any space for water glasses. Server had no idea how to even service the table. A few ppl in our table had the pho and they couldn't even set the platter ( bowl is served on a wooden tray) on the table. Very awkward service, on too of that they have a grade pending which is not displayed on the front as customers come jn to the restaurant. Instead they have it hidden on a shelf on the wall and can only be seen when you walk up to the register.
  Will not be back for sure! I tasted the pho, while it was a large bowl it was just ok.

  Pho best is found inside Arcadia mall. Like this Pho Best location a ton more than the one on Prince Street. Service here was much better. Came here on a weekday to grab a quick lunch since it was the nearest lunch spot that came up on Yelp. I  was very skeptical about coming here because of the experience I had at their other location.
  
  We ordered two regular bowls of pho with ribeye and were given a  ton of bean sprouts, basil, and lime. The food was great. The AC was on high, the place did not feel crowded, and the staff were very attentive. Service here is definitely better than the other pho places in the heart of Flushing. No bathroom inside the restaurant though. I saw a ton of people ordering takeout, so this spot must be pretty reliable.
  
  10/10 would recommend!

  I went for it! I ordered lobster pho and added a bone marrow, the items that lured me in to begin with. The price for both items are a bargain. The photos looked great. The pho...not so great. I felt my bowl that night was bland, lacking complexity in the broth. The lobster, although fresh, was overcooked and rubbery. Bone marrow was on point though.
  
  Moms ordered vermicelli. The sauce was uniquely more garlicky than most and we liked that, so we'll be back for that, if nothing else.
  
  We were split on the shrimp summer rolls. They came out warm and freshly rolled. Moms loved the sauce, but I didn't love it as much. It wasn't bad at all, just not my fave in the city. Taste is so subjective.
  
  Overall, I think they've still got something worth coming back to. Bad broth 'that one time' won't prevent me from giving it another try. We had great service. Both servers and management were friendly and attentive.
