Editorial Review for Than Brothers Restaurant – by Anna Roth
In Short
Red lanterns decorate the sparse interior of this casual, booth-lined pho emporium, where students and businessmen mingle to devour steaming bowls of the fragrant noodle soup. The menu is straightforward: 17 different types of pho, including meatball, eye-round steak, brisket, tripe and veggie, in four sizes. Each order arrives almost immediately, accompanied by fresh herbs and one of the restaurant's signature cream puffs, made in-house from a secret family recipe.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoBe wary of the size names: small is more than enough for a good-sized meal, while extra-large could feed a small army.
What to DrinkTry a coffee with sweet condensed milk, a chrysanthemum tea with honey or a creamy young coconut drink.

I have been coming here on and off for several years. It's good Pho and really helps you feel better when you have a cold. BUT... I have decided never to go back. The owner is just too rude. He brought my daughtrer the wrong order, and when I asked for the right one, he looked at me like he wanted to hurt me. It really ruined the meal for me. I also wonder if he pays any taxes with his "cash only" operation. I have been to other Vietnamese restaurants, and none of them have been as rude as this guy. You're better off going to Lemon Grass restaurant on S. Jackson downtown. The food is awesome, with a full menu. They are really busy though, so expect to wait a while for your food.
Pros: Good Pho, yummy cream puff
Cons: Can't stand the owner's rudeness

Not Vietnamese either, although one person in our party was. I thought it was great food at a great price. I understand that there may be cultural differences/language barriers here, but we had a good time, and didn't have to wait long. But no barriers to eating great pho! By the way, my Vietnamese friend said it's pronounced something like: "Ffffe". Ok, i know that doesn't translate well. Would definitely go again.
Pros: great pho at economy prices
Cons: wait staff not super friendly, but service is good.
