Whitney: For those of us who love Pho and those of who haven't yet experienced this Vietnamese goodness, I think it's important for everyone to know that we have plenty of options. The best quality of soup will come from Pho so 1. (Let's keep in mind I am not critiquing atmosphere, or service, I am only commenting on food). Now there are other variant places that Pho can be ordered, but they all really do come in second to Pho so 1. But if Pho so 1 is packed you can order up a decent bowl at Vietnam 1.
If you're looking for more of a "restaurant" feel then you may like Mekong. The food is good and the beer list is amazing, but the service is...awful! ( I expect Richmond waitstaff to have the attitude, but Mekong is over the top (bitchy)). Also, Da-Lat in the West end is good if you're looking for a more formal dining experience.
Pho 79 makes the list (the casual list) and they sell T-shirts too. The shirts read, "It's Pho-king good". That aspect alone is worth going not to mention the fish tanks are always in a different spot. Closer to VCU you can Pho at Saigon and Far East. The only downfall is that both Saigon and Far East are closed on Sundays ;(. If there are any spots that I have left out please throw your Pho in RVA Loop's pot!
