Pho Lena - Anchorage

Absolutely amazing. I got the Panang curry with chicken and it was just the right amount of spicey. Definitely recommend! Thai iced tea is also great, very good overall.

So happy to see the success of this family. I remember back around 2010 when they took over the old Chinese Kitchen location, looked sketchy at first but we tried them out and they were amazing. Came with a friend one night and my card was declined when we went to pay, had no other payment method. Felt terrible, promised to come back with cash, the lady who owned it was so sweet. Told us that she understood, times were hard, we were young boys, she understands. Not only was sweet but sent us out the door with more food to go that we hadn't ordered. Obviously came back and settled ASAP. Now they have multiple locations in Anchorage, but still the same sweet family. Thank you.

Service was slow. Food was really not great compared to lower 48. Won't return.

The food was pretty good, though perhaps not a good as other Vietnamese restaurants. There is also a blend of non- Vietnamese food, which could be good or bad depending on your preference.Two things that I didn't like:1) chopsticks were served resting on the plate/ bowl so that they weren't clean when you received them due to whatever dish you were being served getting on them when your food is brought out. You had to clean the chopsticks at the table or get food on your hands.2) the obnoxious Christian music being played loud enough that it was very difficult to ignore. It wouldn't have been bad enough to mention had it not been a loud as it was. You do you, but I don't care to be assaulted by any religion's beliefs and ideas when I'm trying to eat.

Never been here before, nice little hole-in-the-wall place! Good vibes as soon as my friend and I walked in. The lady who served us was super sweet and we got our order within 15 minutes or so. I ordered the typical sesame chicken and friend rice and it was amazing! I forget what my friend ordered but they loved it as well. Best white noodles they've had they said! Definitely would go back again. Great atmosphere/music--not busy at all on a Thursday night) I had the leftovers today and they were still delicious haha
