Pho King Oakland

It's the new culinary sensation, sweeping the nation. Expanding from our roots in Boston and Anaheim we are proud to announce our new Bay Area Vietnamese restaurant: Pho King Oakland.

Pho King Oakland

Pho King Oakland. Way better than it deserves to be.

Pho King Oakland is the best value in pho on the West Coast. You may ask yourselves, how can Pho King Oakland be so good, while also being so cheap? First of all, we save on plumbing. Secondly, the only thing we do is Pho, with whatever protein you like. You can get your Pho with chicken, beef, or our specialty: fish. It's so good one exuberant reviewer from Seattle shouted "Pho King Trout. Home Run." Of course, the key to any great pho is the broth. Where do we get that salty liquid imbued with a hint of bitterness? We're not going to tell you, but our secret ingredient is brewed in the Pacific Northwest.

Don't just take it from us, listen to the famous gourmand (What? you thought GM stood for General Manager?) Jerry Dipoto. You already know from earlier coverage on Lookout Landing that Jerry loved pho in Anaheim, but he doesn't like to hang out in Pho King Anaheim anymore because of a nasty breakup with Mike Scioscia. Well now he's got a new favorite. They haven't covered it on the Wheelhouse yet, but I heard it on good authority: Jerry's obsessed with Pho King Oakland. Talks about it every night. Aaron Goldsmith wholeheartedly agrees. Pho King Oakland wins again.

So you know Pho King Oakland is better than it has any right to be. But we're hoping to open a new spot up in Puget Sound this fall. Maybe in October we'll find out that Pho King Seattle is even better than Pho King Oakland. Who knows? Right now Pho King Oakland is pretty damn good, though.
