A local pho eatery has opened its newest location in metro Atlanta.

Pho King started serving its Vietnamese cuisine Wednesday at 319 West Ponce de Leon Ave. in Decatur, according to its Facebook page. That’s the space formerly occupied by Taziki’s Mediterranean Cafe, which closed last year.

The restaurant also has a location in Midtown. It used to have a spot in Buckhead, but that closed earlier this year.

Pho King serves pho — a Vietnamese soup dish usually served with vegetables and meat — as well as banh mi, rice plates and bubble tea.
