🍜 Oxtail Pho and Golden Broth

Rich, clear beef broth is the starting point at Just Pho You, and it pours out golden with a deep flavor. This small Upper West Side pho spot at 2656 Broadway draws comparisons to authentic bowls in Vietnam, and the oxtail pho is the comforting order to start with.

Noodles come cooked just right in generous portions, with hoisin, sriracha and chili oil on the side. The kitchen also makes its own hot sauces, worth tasting before the sriracha goes in. Exceptionally welcoming staff keep the low-key room easy, and Columbia students stop in for a nourishing bowl.

The restaurant is open daily from 11 AM to 10 PM, covering lunch and dinner every day of the week. That long stretch suits a midday bowl as well as a late evening soup on this part of Broadway. A 4.5 rating from 360 reviews backs up the broth.
