Arrive early or join the queue - swift service means you'll never wait long - and discover why this family-run restaurant with its cheerful, tropical decor in a former theatre is a hit. The pho (there are 10 variations, $10) is some of the best in town - aromatic broth, generous shavings of rare meat, slippery noodles and fistfuls of fresh herbs. Ricepaper rolls with tender lemongrass beef ($12.50) is another winner. Chinese fare pales by comparison, although super-sized sang choi bau is a hit with kids ($7 for two).
