Pho Jimmy

Pretty bad, I asked for a bowl of phở with vegetables, pretty standard fare, and was told they didn’t have any… floor and tables were filthy, and the gentleman taking my order didn’t look exactly fresh.

Place is CLOSED now. My aunt told me they packed it up to open a restaurant in Las Vegas.

Me n the hubby have seen this place open for awhile. It had a huge 50% off sign so we decided to try it. We were the only customers. Service was ok. Hubby got phở dac biet n I got the phở tai. Portion wise was small but I figured since it was 50%…I’ll let it slide but the hubby got only brisket in his soup! He told the waiter that he had ordered the combination and the waiter told him that they ran out of the stuff and have to go buy them. What?! Why not let the customer know that its not available on the menu instead of just serving them something they didnt even order?! Yeah we didn’t get 50% off either! Horrible!

Got the combination phở. It was very good! However, I was charged 5 $ but it was supposed to be 50% off. The phở didnt cost 10 $. & I didn’t get a drink.

This is the epitome of a mom and pop hole-​in-​the-​wall restaurant. The food tastes like home cooking; simple, and unrefined, but still pretty tasty. It’s located at the corner of First St. and Newhope in the Dat Tailoring center.
Phở Jimmy has a lot of dishes that are $ 3.75. A darn good deal and you do get quite a bit of food.
We were recommended this place from our hair stylist who’s staff frequents this place so much that we saw two of them pick up to-​go orders on separate occasions while we ate.
WHAT WE ORDERED:
— Phở Tai Gan (Rare steak & Flank) $ 3.75: The bowl is a good regular sized serving with quite a bit of meat. The broth is darker than most restaurants and has somewhat of a five spice flavor to it as well as a slightly greasy texture. This tastes a lot like a phở that someone’s mom made at home: comforting, unrefined, but more flavor than the watery broth at Phở Vinh Ky 2. The rare steak (tai) was roughly cut and not in pretty slices, but there was plenty of nicely cut and cooked flank steak. And yes, you get the plate o’ veggies. Still a pretty good deal for your money. They also had a handwritten sign for Phở Tai with Kobe beef for $ 3.98.
— Com Suon Nuong (Rice & charbroiled pork chop) $ 3.75: The pork chop looked really promising with a nice char. It came with a heaping of rice, lettuce, cucumber, sweet pickled radish and tomatoes with a side of nuoc mam (dipping sauce). The pork chop tasted like it was seasoned with Maggi/​soy sauce and the nuoc mam was really plain. Again, I can totally see this being served at someone’s house.
Some other dishes that were recommended were also $ 3.75: Rice with Steak & Egg and Red Rice with Fried Chicken. Maybe I’ll try one of those next time I’m in the area.
