Pho House, a Vietnamese restaurant, opened in late February on Washtenaw Avenue in the former Fat Philly's and Burgers location.
An employee confirmed the restaurant's opening. Pho House is at 2224 Washtenaw Ave. in Ypsilanti Township on the corner of Hewitt.

Inhmathong-Travis told Concentrate that the restaurant will employ eight members of the family, and she expects they will expand staffing as the business grows.
Pho House serves a variety of items including Vietnamese pho noodle dishes with beef broth soup, and rice noodles and fresh herbs.
The restaurant seats 89 customers and is nearly 3,000 square feet. The building is owned by Wei Chen, who purchased it from the Bank of Ann Arbor in 2011 for $182,000. The building was assessed at $111, 400, making its market value $222,800.
Fat Philly's and Burgers closed less than six months after opening last July. Prior to Fat Philly's, the Fattoush Grill was housed at the same location.
