Pho Lena East - Anchorage

I keep forgetting about this place, mainly because it is out of the way for me, but man is it good! Pho is on point, tried a different dish this last time... can't remember the name but it is #47 on the menu, spicy and flavorful. Add a side of fried pork belly for a welcoming crunch!

If you? re in arush and try to order something to go, make sure your order is at least an hour before you want to pick it up. They seem to make all food for their customers who eat first (I don't blame them). Feel just that should be known for anyone who tried to avoid the really long waiting time. They also do not have to go soy sauce packages for orders. Food is pretty good,

The food was delicious service was good. I've got green curry beef, a pig chop and taro smoothie with Boba.

Great restaurant! If you need a Viet fix and you don't want to drive far away to get it. This is the best place. It might be the top pho in anchorage but it's definitely consistently good. The restaurant has convenient parking as well as a clean restaurant. The only reason I dinged it a star was because it's not as good(portion wise) as some of the other top Viet places which are a little farther away

I ordered take out. I tried the Pho with brisket and the Chicken Pho. The broth was excellent on both but....the brisket was all fat. I had one bite of meat. The chicken was so tough that I couldn't chew it. The basil, cilantro and bean sprouts were old. I have eaten at this restaurant in the past and it was OK. This time I gave it two stars and I am being generous. Since I ordered take out, I discovered the horror when I got home. I called the restaurant and described my dishes and the young lady was NO help. So sad!
