Christopher S.Christopher Stewart: Steam Dumplings are topper and the Tom Yum Seafood Soup is excellent. Great Pho Bo!

Linden H.Linden Hillenbrand: This is not ramen. It's a Pho based house. I suggest ordering the pig belly and steamed dumplings.

Meg F.Meg Farmer: Come on a cold day for the lunch deal- add a steamed dumpling or spring roll, both solid choices. One of the better tasting Pho Bo places in Manhattan.
