Did you know that Phở Bắc was Seattle’s first pho restaurant? Theresa Cat Vu and Augustine Nien Pham opened the restaurant after their flavorful pho unexpectedly became the most popular dish at Cat’s Submarine sandwich shop in 1982. At Phở Bắc Súp Shop, the next generation is at the helm – siblings Khoa, Quynh, and Yenvy Pham. The bone marrow broth dish delights the International District with its silky rice noodles, slow cooked brisket, and tender vegetables. While known for its pho, Phở Bắc Súp Shop also serves traditional Vietnamese dishes like banh mi, vermicelli, com, and more.
Pro-tip: Don’t forget to order Vietnamese coffee!
I love that they took a traditional bowl of pho and elevated it, yet it still reminds you of an authentic bowl of pho. This place gets all the points for creativity as well as the quality of food.
Gotta love “dinosaur” pho with two big bones of short rib peeking out of the top of the bowl!
