Fans of the best pho ga in town (#9 all the way!) will be happy to know TURTLE TOWER has reopened on Larkin Street in its new location, and right on schedule. The new space is a bit bigger (70 seats instead of 46, with 40 more in 6 months), and only a few tweaks have been made to the menu (they added bánh mì and took out the grilled fish filet). One thing that hasn’t changed: the joint is still cash only. Open Fri-Wed 8am-5pm for now (closed Thu), which is usually the window for when you need to fix that hangover of yours. 645 Larkin St. at O’Farrell, 415-409-3333.
