Delicious pho and Vietnamese cuisine at Pho Ca Dao! We ordered the P11 sliced well done steak and flank pho, the P24 seafood pho with shrimp, white fish, and imitation crab, and the K2 shrimp roll bean curd. All the food was delicious, I haven’t had much pho so far in life, but this was one of the best if not the best. Very friendly and quick service. Very authentic. Recommend!

With all due respect to your opinions, for me one of the best places, food very well served and with a lot of flavor, the staff very attentive and I was surprised that many of the staff speak Spanish, very good service, I recommend it, it is always full but there is always room, one of the best 🙂

The place was pretty full and plenty of people coming in for takeout, but they got everything served really fast, so pretty impressive to feed that many people with good and delicious food that...
