Have been here multiple times and still like it more than the competition nearby.  I have noted some reviewers find the soup on the lighter side of their expectations, but I enjoyed it as it offers a cleaner taste and certainly not the MSG enhanced flavour - I once asked at a cha chan tang if their soup had MSG in it and the reply came back "we most certainly add MSG to the soup and everything else".  I had several permutations of the pho with various ingredients,  I must admit I did not detect much difference between normal beef and the more expensive variety, and the beef tendon lacked taste even if the texture was pleasing.  I tried the sandwich and found the baquette already soggy, perhaps it's the high humidity in HK that took away the crunchiness in the crust.  I had the salad and some other items on offer, nothing stood out.  

So for my money, just go for the most basic beef pho and enjoy the soup.
