Excellent service and good food! I love the ambience of the place and the tiny details that make it feel more authentic.

Genuinely, everything I got was good. We’re visiting from NYC and now I gotta go tell them there’s major competition! Bread in the banh mi was perfect, all the grilled meat was perfectly grilled and not even remotely dry, everything was fresh, house made sriracha and chili sauce. Best sea salt creme coffee I’ve had in years. Very friendly service, they even offered free ube ice cream which I ended up buying because it was so good!!

One of the most delicious pho I’ve ever had in Bay Area. The broth is very rich and tasty.

The atmosphere of this restaurant is incredible. I walked in and felt like I was in Vietnam. And on top of that, the food was incredible and came very quickly. The prices are reasonable and definitely my favorite Vietnamese place in Berkeley. They have a little bungalow that I would like to nap in after I finish this delicious food. Definitely come.

Very kind and very quick service. Probably some of the best pho I’ve had in Berkeley and it’s pretty reasonably priced too.

I'm not sure where the 5 star reviews are coming from, but from my singular experience at Vietnam House, the food is not good. Just round the corner and eat at the other Vietnamese place. It's better. We took a chance with a new restaurant in town, and it was a mistake and frankly, kind of an expensive one for all its disappointments. We ordered the combination pho. The noodles were probably pre-cooked and re-heated, thus overcooked and mushy. This was initially evidenced by the clumping that happens with re-heated noodles. There was no spring to what one should expect from freshly made pho rice noodles. The soup lacked depth and was at best pho flavored water. The portion size is good, but what's the point if the food is not. We also ordered the spring rolls, and I would also doubt their freshness. The shrimp in the rolls were ice cold, and the sauce came in a clear plastic container for take-out that clearly had been in the fridge right before, as that too was ice cold (for context, we dined in; the issue is not with the container rather that it was disappointing as a dining experience to receive ice cold dipping sauce). As a heads up, you order, pay, and tip before you sit down at a table to receive your order. Perhaps if you're really inclined to give the place a try, tip afterwards after you gauge how things are. The service was fine-- kiosk, food to your table-- nothing beyond that. And, re: the atmosphere, the music choice is slowed down, severely auto-tuned or perhaps AI generated renditions of Christmas songs. Take that warning as you will.

I can’t recommend this restaurant enough! The beefball they made is literally the best I have ever had in the USA for 10 years! It tastes exactly like 潮汕 beefball from my hometown and I have never tasted that in the US ever before!!! Their Vietnamese coffee is also spectacular. The sandwiches are mediocre but still! The owner and staff are all Vietnamese. You have to try this place. The price is also super affordable.
Tasty Viet food for a quick bite. Also great drinks and desserts at a competitive price compared to other places nearby. The family working here is super sweet!

100% I’ll be back for more! 🙌🏻 This is the best beef pho I’ve ever had in the Bay! The broth is rich and full of flavor, and the beef meatballs, with their tender bits of tendon🤩👏🏻 The combination sandwich is incredible too, every bite transports me to authentic Vietnam. And avocado smoothies made with fresh fruit, they’re absolutely delicious!😍

Seafood wasn't fresh and I found a bandaid in my pho. Made for a rough night.

Chicken banh mi and beef pho were great! This is now my favorite Vietnamese place in the area, and best banh mi I’ve had in a long time.
