Pho Filet 2
Included In
Meet the no-bullshit pho spot of our dreams. At this cash-only restaurant on San Gabriel Boulevard in Rosemead, you sit at a communal table, order, and eat within five minutes. But don't take their efficiency as a sign of a rushed kitchen. The pho here arrives piping hot with razor-thin cuts of filet mignon and slices of white onion brewing at the top of the bowl. But the best part is the liquid lurking underneath—Pho Filet 2 serves some of the richest, most aromatic beef broth in the SGV that smells like a steak rolled down a hill made of star anise and ginger.
