This thread's a little dated, but when I lived in Boston, Pho Pasteur was my favorite...the extra large chicken-noodle pho always hit the spot. The one on Newbury was great for people-watching.
I also like What the Pho? in Bellevue, WA--good pho, clean place, and of course, the cheeky name.

I had a vietnamese girlfriend one time (true story) and we'd occasionally go to SF to get pho (since marin county's pho was horrible) and I once joked how we should open a pho restaurant.
call it Pho Reals.

My pho recommendations:
Asia House, East Lansing, Michigan
- make sure you ask for extra sliced onions and mint, $4.65 Lunch Special & $1.95 (2) Fresh Roll, extra noodles for only .75 cents...
Pho 3000, Los Angeles, California
- I only went during dinner at the price was around $6

Anyway .. I was on my way back from Vancouver and craving for some Pho .. got off the exit and found at least five different Pho restaurants near each other. I couldn't make up my mind on which one to go to that I ended up with chinese instead of Pho

I actually had pho for lunch today, at Pho Ca Dao on Mira Mesa. It's so close to the office, though there are of course a jillion other pho places nearby as well.

it's near the Union Bank just past Camino Ruiz... I know it well I like it.. I've been there a dozen times and been satisfied every time. I'm not sure how much better it is than any other place in the city but I've liked it every time. Always good for a quick cheap meal.

There's a Pho Hoa on Main and 19th in Vancouver Canada that serves a mean Hot and Sour Pho with Pigs' Trotters. (You can ask it to be taken out if you want).. for US$4. And that's the large portion!

In case you haven't figured out the difference between Vietnamese and Chinese cuisine, one difference is in the vegetables. Vegetables are always raw in Vietnamese, and always cooked in Chinese. Fascinating.
