"We don’t know why Lucky’s Pho is always empty, but we do know that there’s never a wait, so we’ll take it. It’s a simple space with linoleum tabletops, a soda fridge, and a bottle of sriracha on every table. The phở is particularly great if you prefer a beefier, less cinnamon-forward broth, and you should also get your hands on their bánh mì, which overflow with 24-hour-braised short rib and a zippy thai basil pesto.
