This is the place to go for stunning Persian, Mediterranean, vegetarian, and vegan cuisine. Herbs and spices take center stage, adding spark, and sometimes shock, to stir-fries, stews, pastas, and chicken, fish and lamb dishes. Fresh and healthful is king at this low-cost cafe.

An excellent option for diners wanting to experience a bit of international adventure without being intimidated. The space is gorgeous. Ingredients are upper-class (filet mignon, Cornish game hen, mahi-mahi). Dishes are familiar to everyone, focusing on kebabs, with just a few daring offerings like gheimeh (stew) or adas polo (basmati rice tossed with raisins, lentils, […]
If you can stomach the Disney-esque lifestyle of this manicured master plan on the edge of New River, you’ll find some perfectly good, all-American food served in a country-club setting. Lunch or the all-day bar menu are your best choices; dinner tends to be expensive, with little value returned.

Picture this: You’re parked in front of a ginormous HDTV watching football, when, suddenly, as if from the ether, a hottie appears with a Philly cheesesteak and a frosty pint of Modelo Especial.

A few things set Pho Avina apart from the usual bare-bones, strip-mall ethnic joint. The cheerful décor is one; the exhaustive menu is another. Along with standards like pho and all kinds of seafood dishes, this place serves a variety of roll-your-own spring rolls, lots of vegetarian dishes, sweet boba drinks, and a dozen banh […]
This Vietnamese restaurant is a very welcome addition to a stretch of McDowell Road better known for a multitude of Mexican eateries. The must-try on what is an unusually manageable menu (for a Vietnamese restaurant, that is) is the banh mi ($2.95) sandwich, perhaps the best of its kind in town, featuring a juicy barbecued […]
Pho Thanh Restaurant started off as a one-room show. (True heads still brag about slurping pho and chowing banh mi in those modest early days of the place; bigger props if you dined at Pho Bang.)
