“Saigon Butter Tofu Wine sauce Ox Tail Noodle Soup Crab & Pork Meatball & Tomato Vermicelli And to drink: Taro w/Coconut Slush“

“Been meaning to review this location.
This location is perfect for crab and lobster lovers. We ordered the crab and lobster set menu and had both the crab and lobster cooked with garlic sauce. I was told it was amazing, since I am allergic to both crab and lobster, I more of the garlic noodles -yummy., papaya salad, steamed sea bass and charbroiled pork. I really liked their garlic noodles. It’s as good as Thanh Long .“

“Bahn Mi are the best sandwiches in the universe. And these M Sandwiches are
some of the best on our planet.
If you've never had a Vietnamese sandwich, try one here and you'll surely come back again and again.
And, No!
Vietnamese sandwiches are not spicy, but simply delicious, full of fresh and pickled vegetables and your choice of meats . You can add your own slivers of fresh jalapenos, as provided on the side, if you want to spice it up a bit. Friendly, quick service, and delightful tastes and textures.“

“Excellent food. I’ve only been able to try the sandwiches, but the two I got were tasty. I tried the combo and the crispy duck. I’ll have to go back to try the pho. It just opened when I got there. They got my sandwiches very quick. The ambiance was nice and modern with plenty of seating. Service was nice and helpful. It’s a little more than what I’m use to for a Banh Mi Sandwich, but I have to take into consideration the neighborhood I’m purchasing it from. I’ll definitely come back.“

“The pho, noticeably fragrant. 20 hours of simmering evident in the deepness of taste, buttery from the marrow drawn from bones. Clean and translucent broth, an indicator of quality. The wait time, a result of perfectly boiled-to-order rice noodles. What’s missing in decor is over-compensated by taste. Come for a rare-find bowl of solid noodle soup — no frills, but very simply delicious.“

“Great food❤️Great service, great atmosphere.“

“Super good!!! Would recommend to anyone. Big portions“

“I always get good food and great service. Take out or dine in .“

“I'm not expert on Vietnamese cuisine, and for that reason this review has to be read with a grain or two of salt.

My two cents is this: the last time I visited here with my lady, we enjoyed new dishes we don't usually get (she ordered a combination fried rice and we also shared another appetizer, their crispy imperial rolls.)

We have been here more than 10-12 times together, and I've also ordered Bahn Mi sandwiches here for lunch many times; yet, we can still share items that we are either familiar with or not, and still consistently enjoy the experience dining in here.

Top notch service most days, reasonable value on pricing, and good food make this place an 11/10 for me.“

“Great food and service. Always a good experience.“

“Simply the best pho on the Peninsula! This is a very casual restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere and staff and a video screen that shows authentic food preparation scenes from Vietnam. The service can at times be a little overwhelmed, because at dinner times they tend to be a little busy. But they are always pleasant and the food is fantastic and a good value at today's prices.“

“A pretty decent family owned Vietnamese restaurant. It’s been a while we saw traditional dripping coffee, so we really liked it. The taste was authentic.For the food, we ordered one Shrimp spring rolls, one Grilled pork ball spring rolls and one Pho Tai. Pho was decent, the broth was just okay. The other two dishes were good. But, I agreed the price was quite expensive compared to other Vietnamese restaurants I have tried.I think they kinda lack of staff because one lady took the job of waiter + cashier + preparing drinks, one uncle served food and cleaned up tables, and there seemed to be only one chef. Thus, it took a bit of time for food to be served. But, the lady was very nice. She chatted with us for a bit while serving our drinks and during checkout.

“The food tasted OK at Little Vietnamese Bistro. There were two other parties when I ate here at 6pm on a Thursday night. Slow night. Food arrived shortly after I ordered. The chicken papaya salad $15 was drenched in fish sauce. It was a wet salad with a lot of nuts and shredded steamed chicken. The little pieces of crunchy dried garlic was a nice touch. It would have been nicer if there were more herbs like Thai Basil, cilantro or mint to make it more fragrant. The side of five spice chicken $7 looked dry, but it wasn't. It was juicy inside with a light coating of spices. At other restaurants, the skin can be rubbery. Little Viet Bistro cooked this correctly.

You can order in Chinese. The staff spoke fluent Cantonese to customers and Mandarin among themselves. Good job everyone at Little Viet Bistro.“

“Busy Vietnamese restaurant. Big menu with many tasty options, variety of soups, noodles, sandwiches, rice dishes. We had to wait over 15 minutes for our order, but it was a busy lunch rush. After hat our food was delivered promptly. Food was delicious.“

“I always get good food and great service. Take out or dine in .“

“We shouldn't always go off of the reviews. There was a review that wasn't too long ago that said this place wasn't good. I went today for the first time in the food I had the Pho. It was actually very tasty fresh. Customer service was good. I will go again“

“I like the ambience and enjoy the cuisine. Bring back lots is nostalgia!“

“This is a busy restaurant, and I’m impressed by the efficiency of the staff. They were very friendly, and quickly served this busy place.

The food portions are great. We ate very well. The people here feel honest and down to earth. Would be happy to return in the future.“

“We were looking for a pho place since we live by San Mateo area..cause we usually go to Daly City for Pho..this place is amazing😍😍this will be our forever Pho place😍it’s clean and the services is excellent ♥️love,love this little Saigon place..come check it out♥️“

“FOOD 4.5
Ordered the Bun cha with pork and imperial rolls topped with crushed peanuts. Slivered cucumbers, bean sprouts and lettuce under the rice noodles. Nuoc Mam dipping sauce with shredded carrots served on the side. Plenty of pork brochettes and imperial rolls. Volume of food is significant, and I couldn’t finish it by myself. Very yummy.

Friend ordered beef pho. Soup is aromatic with lots of star anise and clove. Thin noodles. Yummy

SERVICE 3
Ordinary, friendly, nothing special.

ATMOSPHERE 3
Ordinary, nothing special. Great place to take the family.

“This Place is so Good and Delicious!!! They have Chinese, Hawaiian and even Pho! Been coming here a lot!“

“My favorite pho ga. You know it's good when it doesn't need to be meddled with. The broth bursts with great flavor content. Best thing, they don't use msg! No bloat, no headache. Maybe just a little bit more thirsty, likely from the sodium content. They attain maximum flavor, but I'm a simple girl. Most if not all of their staff is vietnamese so sometimes you'll get a limited response, but to your advantage the food is authentic in that same way. They're super, super kind and service is quick. Place is clean, peaceful. My only complaint is that the spray they use to clean tables off is way too strong and it's a bit unpleasant if it's while you're eating. Otherwise, this is definitely my go-to, without a doubt.“

“I really enjoyed the curry chicken and the veggie/curry chicken boxes. Portions were reasonable and everything was very tasty!! Price is of course a bit higher than outside but it’s an airport, what do you expect ? The ladies working Wednesday afternoon at 2 PM were very friendly and helpful!“

“Stanford in campus counter style cafe offering a blend of Southeast Asian flavours. One has to lower expectations given that this is within the university and caters to a diverse set of diners, so the tastes are milder vs the local Asian staples. A good representation nonetheless of Asian cuisine. The dining area is soley outdoors but relatively clean and provides a good campus spot to have ones meal and to meet up. No toilets available.

Vegetarian options: Counter style gives you options but ask servers on specific ingredients used

Parking: Stanford University parking system in effect while free parking lots are further situated with the use of free shuttles

Kid-friendliness: Ample options for kid's tastes

Wheelchair accessibility: Spacious seating outdoors but ordering has to be done by counter“

“Great food and nice people! It’s a family run/owned business. They have a wide selection at low prices! The pho is the best I’ve had in the SF Bay Area! Always a great choice of where to eat.

Nobody asked me to make this post, but this place is a hidden gem and I want people to know.“

“Always fresh and fantastic! The guys who work there are always friendly and nice, as well!“

“Healthy options Good price“

“Tasty vietnamese desserts. Staff are knowledgeable about how to make items vegan and many things are automatically vegan. Got the red bean trio which was really tasty, liked the different textures. The pandan jelly was good and not artificial tasting at all. The taro in it added a nice creaminess. Also got the choco banana smoothie with soymilk which was good.“

“😋😋 good eating experience“

“Best service and congeniality! Loved our crispy tofu bun mee sandwich!!!! perfection! This is a MUST EAT spot on the Filmore or when flying out or into sfo. Thank you again for your service and delicious over the top food-dont forget the crispy sweet potato fries! Yum.“
