201 Massachusetts Ave, NE
Pho 79 opened on Friday! An early word on Yelp is pretty good:
“Great addition to the neighborhood. Very well done pho, good broth and a lot of options of meat that goes in. The grilled pork noodle bowl was on point. The house made chili oil, lemonade drinks and Vietnamese coffee was on point.”
Peep the menu.

Thanks to David for sending:
“Pho Viet on 11th and Fairmont Street, NW ordered closed by DOH.
Only been there once but thought it was good. Apparently they were operating outside the bounds of their certificate of occupancy.” (more…)
Nice! Thanks to Eric and Rachel for the heads up on Red Boat (the former Micho’s space): “And everything is 50% off. It may be open now- they had Open signs on the door, and the lights are on!” (more…)
Thanks to Amanda for sending: “Vietnamese Chelsea no more? And they just got their license to sell beer and wine too!”
Vietnamese Chelsea opened up, across from the original Pho 14, back in November 2016. Updates as Bombay gets closer to opening.

Whoa, thanks to Nicole for sending yesterday:
“I went to go to Pho Viet and saw a ton of jack hammering and construction. Any idea what is going on? My friend told me that she was there last week and they had a sign that they would be closed this week. Hope they reopen soon!”
I’m gonna file this as new patio coming!!

11th and Fairmont Street, NW
In late July we posted about the new Pho Viet opening at 11th and Fairmont St, NW. It wasn’t clear if they were the same owners as on 14th (and the coming Bun DC opening August 25th) but Will updates us:
“I did ask them and it is the same owners. They confirmed that and told me they opened two weeks ago. It’s a small restaurant with two tables, some window seats and I believe one working in the kitchen. Had it the other day was really good.”
Rachel reports:
“We went to the new Pho Viet over on 11th for dinner. According to the young couple running it, it seems they are not actually of the same family as the other Pho Viet, Bun DC, etc.
My husband and I shared the shrimp spring rolls and each had the spicy lemongrass beef pho. (more…)

YES Finally!! Thanks to Amanda for sending the good word on Bun DC‘s imminent opening:
“Bún DC is a family-owned restaurant serving authentic dishes from Sóc Trăng, Vietnam. Our recipes are inspired by memories of growing up and learning to cook in Southern Vietnam, and we are proud to share our culture with you at this quaint little restaurant in the nation’s capital.
Bún DC is the sister restaurant of Pho Viet–located at 3513 14th St NW, Washington, DC.”

11th and Fairmont Street, NW
S reports:
“pho coming to 11th and Fairmont!! Wondering if it’s the same as Pho Viet on 14th!”
Updates as they get closer to opening, and based on their Bun DC website don’t appear to be affiliated with Pho Viet on 14th.
Ed. Note: This still could be huge.
Ed. Note part two As to the status of Bun DC the new sister restaurant to Pho Viet on 14th, they’re new website (thanks to Mark for sending) is live: (more…)
