Farewell to Pho: Bobalicious Closes Its Doors


A local favorite for Vietnamese food and bubble tea closed its doors earlier this month according to its Facebook page:

This week through Sunday June 2nd will be the last day of operation of Bobalicious. I personally want to thank you all of my customers for your support throughout! You guys are Bobalicious and without you Bobalicious wouldn't be successful, and I thank you! I had learned so much and I was blessed to have meet and even befriend with some of you. You guys had given me a special gift of experience, I would never forget. Once again from the bottom of my heart I thank you!

Owner Lia Lan Phan Esparza indicated in a post in the farewell thread that she will be heading back to school after the closing of Bobalicious.

With the departure of Bobalicious are there any other good spots left for Pho in Iowa City?
