    I love this place. No seriously, I love this place. Me and my boy come here once a week and get the exact same dish every, single, time. An XL Bowl of Beef Brisket Pho with an Egg. Then we DROWN it in Siracha and whatever the brown sauce is lol. Seal's foodn is amazing, and I definitely prefer Pho over Ramen on any given day. The servers are nice and it's a small cozy location. Its packs up really quick since they have maybe at most 30 seats. But it is well worth the waiting time. I recommend highly if you are a noodle enthusiast, or just someone who wants to try a really good new dish. I'm always looking for new and exciting ethnic foods to try.

    My favorite pho place in town. The broth is very clear but alive with umani. I always get the beef combo that is a medley of raw sliced beef, beef balls, and tripes. The sliced beef is still pink when served and gets cooked still in the hot broth. You can decide when it is the right doneness for you taste. Tripe is 'crispy' and easy to bite in. Meatball is bouncy and invites a nice bite. Everything to its perfection. I like my brother to be more sour, it also better brings out the natural sweetness of the beef broth so I always ask for extra limes and they happily provide them.

    Oh and if you know what durians are, they have durian smoothies. And yes you can actually taste the fruit.

    At 3pm on a Wednesday, this place was conveniently quiet. I frequent this place a lot, because the prices can't be beat, and it's pretty good food. Instead of getting my usual Thai iced tea (amazing), I opted for a limeade which was incredible. Not sickeningly sweet, and amazingly fresh. For my entree, I got the chicken pho, which comes with the traditional fixings of lime, bean sprouts, etc. I was pleased that they had the small chili peppers and I got a side of those chopped up for some extra spice. With the noodles, chicken, and the broth itself, I was stuffed and satisfied.

    It is a little basic in that they don't really serve any specialty dishes, as well as their hot sauce selection being limited to sriracha only, but sometimes simplicity is best. Plus a huge bowl of pho is only like $6 or $7.

    I'm blessed to live walking distance from this amazing eatery. Whenever I'm sick or the weather is dreadful, this is my go-to spot for a cozy pick-me-up.

    I get the same pho every visit. That broth is amazing. So amazing, I often order a container to take home. $3 for small or $5 for large broth. This is a blessing to sip on when you're sick or on that liquid only diet.

    Restaurant is tiny and always packed. Open seating. The Monroe location used to be closed on Sundays but they lifted that restriction and are now open until 9pm on Sundays. I'm thrilled about that because many of the *good* Rochester dining establishments are closed Sunday/Monday which is a pet peeve of mine.

    Pho is always a win!
