Pho 68 Vietnamese Noodle House

Vietnamese cuisine has had only sporadic lodging here, with not much success. But this latest venue shows promise, even if the setting is somewhat antiseptic and the menu limited. Tight spring rolls are crunchy with cabbage and pork and best when dredged in a trio of sweet and hot sauces. Deep bowls of pho seem tailor-made for a winter’s day: hot and crowded with noodles and your choice of beef, pork, or shrimp. We slurped with joyful abandon, and nary an eyebrow was raised.
