Pho 2000 opened in the year of its name in the Fields Corner neighborhood of Dorchester, home to a growing Vietnamese community. The family-owned restaurant is set in an easy-to-miss location on a quiet side street. It's small, modest and usually full of families picking up dinner to go or eating pho, goi (salads), bun (vermicelli), or any of the beef, pork and seafood entrées that the restaurant does so well. Appetizers such as spring rolls, fresh or fried, are a sure thing. And the restaurant makes great salads with the familiar Vietnamese combination of shredded carrots, cabbage, mint, peanuts and a vinegary dressing tossed with beef, duck, chicken or tofu. The bun tom nuong, a dish of grilled shrimp over vermicelli rice noodles, also with shredded lettuce, mint, bean sprouts and roasted peanuts, is filling but not heavy and packed with bright flavors. The restaurant's most popular bowl of pho is beef-based, with steak, brisket, tendon, flank and tripe all bobbing in the deeply flavored broth. But the don't-miss dish is Bo 7 Mon – Seven Courses of Beef. It requires a partner in crime as well as a deep affection for beef. Sliced and steamed, ground and steamed, fried with butter, marinated in lemon, skewered, sesame-marinated, and mixed with rice for soup – beef, we hardly knew thee until we ate you at Pho 2000. While takeout is quick and inexpensive, eating in will provide a chance to learn more about this neighborhood's growing community. No alcohol available. Serving lunch and dinner daily.
