Pho Lena Express - Anchorage

Very yummy! Everything I ordered was AMAZING. Didn’t wait long for food either. Staff was really nice. Best PHO!

I love this place. I comega here so much they know my order by heart. The owner is amazing and very friendly.

The owners are very welcoming and excellent! The restaurant is kept clean and service is great. The vibe in the restaurant makes you feel right at home. The food is excellent and bursting with authentication! My favorite is the Chicken Kapiek Sin with Oxtail. The Pho is delicious too! The Laotian Beef Larb is to die for. I would recommend this restaurant to anybody and everybody!!

Pretty tasty. I grabbed some takeout from here on way home the other day ordered the shrimp egg rolls and pad ka teim (garlic stir fry). I like that they clarify which location (as they have more than one) before you order and that it was ready to go really quick when I got there. My shrimp egg rolls were fantastic crispy and hot! The sauce was a little thin but still a nice chili flavor. Entree was also perfect spiced as requested with moist chicken and several kinds of veggies. I'd say the only drawback was the size it was only a small portion compared to other places I've ordered from but still the same price. It came wrapped in foil which took up a lot of room and even then most of the carton was just rice which was disappointing. Go for the flavor but don't be too hungry!

Incredibly impressed with the size of the menu and that everything we ordered was delicious! So many soups I felt a bit lost in what to try but settled for the interesting sounding Lao Tum Yum Veggie Wonton which was listed under pho if memory serves. I wasn't sure what to expect, having coconut milk in it I wondered if it would be creamy(which doesn't seem like pho). Instead it was a perfectly struck balance of coconut milk and the broth still making for a light, refreshing, and well spiced soup. Noodles, sprouts etc were all fresh and provided in a very nice portion size. We got the Lao fresh rolls as well, which I'm always a sucker for fresh rolls these were tasty and fit the bill, I'm wondering if their peanut dipping sauce was homemade? If not it was at the very least unique. The chicken fried rice was a hefty serving that we ate for leftovers the following evening! We ordered takeout and the packaging was expert level, definitely no fear of messy spills with the soups! Prices were great, many of their generous portion sized soups are all around the 10$ mark so we'll definitely be revisiting the next time we have the craving for pho!
