Where To Eat Vietnamese Food in Marin: Pho in San Rafael
It’s time to check in with Bay Area food & travel expert Troy Rios of @destroyeats to find out what what’s new dining-wise in Marin County. We keep our Eating & Drinking in Marin section pretty up-to-date thanks to people like Troy, our own reconnaissance (naturally!), and a few go-to resources around the county (hi, Marin Magazine!).
Troy’smost recent Marin find is a new off-the-beaten-path spot in San Rafael called Pho. Located in a strip mall off highway 101, the location is not the bayside beauty that Marin is most typically known for, but once you’re inside it’s a lovely spot! And more importantly Pho is getting rave reviews for their Vietnamese food from people all over Marin.
The star of the menu, of course, is the beloved pho - a steaming bowl of aromatic broth, delicate rice noodles, and tender slices of beef or chicken, adorned with a myriad of fresh herbs and zesty condiments. Every spoonful unveils layers of complex flavors, blending seamlessly to create a harmonious and comforting symphony. PERFECT for winter’s day!
Have a look at Troy’s meal below for some on-the-spot reporting from Pho:
Pho is located at 75 Bellam Blvd Suite I, San Rafael, in the Marin Square shopping center and is open daily 10:30-8:30.
Bon Apetit!
