Housed in a former A&W Root Beer stand and keeping the diner feeling alive, Pho An serves a broth ($10-$15) that's slightly sweeter than most with just about anything in it you might want: tripe, tendon and meatballs that have an almost sausagelike consistency. For the less adventurous, there's also beef, shrimp or chicken.
