North Jersey Eats, Pho Today (Vietnamese)

Went to a spot I’ve never gone to called Pho Today in East Rutherford.

For the pork rice vermicelli, I took my first bite and thought the pork was a bit undercooked and chewy. After putting those pieces in the air oven for 5 minutes, the texture didn’t change. While it was seasoned really well, the texture of the meat felt odd to me compared to other places. Everything else, including the crunchy pickled veggies and spring roll were yumm.

The pho I took for lunch, but it was hard to break up the noodles in the bowl. I tried heating up the broth a few times but I guess I couldn’t get it hot enough cause the noodles didn’t budge. Probably should’ve ate this the night of, but I’m just a girl🤷🏻‍♀️ The broth, onions, herbs, and other veggie throw ins were good, I just missed the noodle :(

Overall, I’d give it a 7/10

this was takeout after all so I’m sure if everything was fresh, I’d definitely give it another try!

Pho Today
2024/6/19 Edited to

... Read moreIf you're in North Jersey and craving Vietnamese food, Pho Today is a must-try spot. Located in East Rutherford, this restaurant offers a variety of dishes including pho, rice vermicelli, and spring rolls. The pork rice vermicelli, while well-seasoned, may need some adjustment in cooking to achieve the ideal texture. Additionally, pho is known for its fragrant broth and fresh ingredients, but achieving the right noodle consistency can be challenging with takeout. If you can consume it fresh from the restaurant, you might enjoy an even better meal! To enhance your culinary journey, consider pairing your pho with traditional Vietnamese dipping sauces to elevate the flavors. With a growing interest in Vietnamese cuisine in NJ, exploring local restaurants is a great way to satisfy your cravings.
