Found a solid spot inside LIC Food Hall — Pho Vital 🍜 They have lots of options and combo meals that are actually worth it. We got the lemongrass chicken rice and grilled pork vermicelli, both super flavorful and surprisingly light. The chicken was so juicy and well marinated, and everything came with fresh veggies on the side. Also tried the warm ginger apple tea and Thai tea — both hit the spot. Perfect place for a refreshing meal when NYC weather gets hot ☀️
Amazing food and great value! The pho broth tastes fresh and flavorful, not too salty, and you can tell it’s made with care. The grilled pork chop rice was delicious and perfectly seasoned. Portions were generous, service was friendly, and the location inside LIC Food Hall is super convenient. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Long Island City. Highly recommend!
