Located at
4414 Lawndale Drive in Greensboro, JakJin Bistro Pho & More serves
Vietnamese cuisine from 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday-Saturday. Lunch specials
and online ordering are available. There is limited seating (indoor and
outside).
This
small, unassuming, family-owned spot serves up an excellent bowl of pho. While
other varieties are available, if you are OK with meatball or chicken, the
$9.50 lunch special is quite a good deal. I opted for meatball and was rewarded
with a large bowl served hot and fresh. It came with the usual accoutrements
bean sprouts, Thai basil, etc.), but I was tempted by the mention of the chili
paste being made in-house. Though the broth was plenty flavorful as-is, it added
a welcome burn.
JakJin’s
proprietor was friendly and appreciative, and service was fast. The rest of the
menu looked promising (beef basil and stir fried noodles are also lunch
specials here) though some of the regular menu items (I’m looking at you,
papaya salad) seemed priced a bit high.
For those
traversing the Lawndale/Battleground area, JakJin should be toward the top of
your list of lunch spots.
