I used to love eating pho, I starting eating it every single week. I thought I was eating a healthy soup. I almost felt like I was addicted to it. Then I started feeling sick and I asked my friend who told me that pho is loaded with MSG. I asked my doctor and he explained that MSG has an addictive effect on the brain, not to mention some very negative effects on the heart and liver. I never eat at Than Brothers anymore. And I no longer trust restaurants to not poison me. Thanks a lot FDA! You bunch of incompetant jerks.

4 Stars: Great pho! Awesome price! Budget food. (by madge y.)

Than Brothers always has good pho. This restaurant looks a little cleaner than the one on University Way. Pho is cheap too! The medium is always sufficient for me, and at under 5 dollars. Special delight? You get a free cream puff! I'm not sure if this restaurant has no msg in their pho. You have to be careful, some of the pho restaurants add a ton of msg.

PROS: Awesome pho! Good budget food
CONS: Hope it's clean, and no msg??

5 Stars: BEST PHO IN TOWN (by Diane O.)

Sometimes the service isn't great, but usually they are fast fast fast and friendly. The food fills you up, is very easy on your wallet, plus they even throw in a delicious custard puff with every meal. If you like soup on a chilly Seattle day, this is the place for you!

PROS: Cheap! Yummy!
CONS:

I went to school near the Than Bros. on Broadway and, no kidding, I have eaten here for lunch and dinner in the same day. The portions are enormous and the price CANNOT be beat. (A large Pho run's about five bucks...)

PROS: cheap and yummy.
CONS:
