Fortune Pho 75

5501 N. Lamar, 458-1792

Daily, 11am-9:30pm

Fortune is in a dead-heat tie for best bowl of bun in the city. The No. 56 (mixed grilled meats with red pepper and lemongrass) is absolutely incredible, although many go there for the dynamite soups. They have superb spring rolls (fresh and fried) and a full menu of Vietnamese and Chinese entrées. Lunch buffet is Monday-Friday from 11:30am-2:30pm. It would be most fortunate for you to visit this place.
