This video lists one of the places for pho in Saigon and the bao pao is not too bad too. But it's become too popular so I would say it falls under the tourist trap category and I generally don't like such places. The quality tends to drop because they are serving more people while the price rises. So for those starting out it might be good. Now there are dozens more places all over Vietnam that are not mentioned anywhere so the best way to find a good place is to ask the locals where they go and then look for the busiest place that has almost no foreigners, 9 out of 10 times you will strike gold

But the best PHO is in District 5 and the place is called
Pho Le. Found it by mistake as I was looking for another place but boy was the Pho good
