38 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Foster City

“When I need warm comfort food, this is my go-to. That's usually during a tough work day and I need to get away from the office for some pho. I call ahead and it's ready when I arrive for pickup. They package it well so it won't leak, the noodle and veggies are separate from the broth, and it's piping hot. My favorite dish is vegetarian pho. The portion is huge so I usually eat half and save the rest for the next day. I love it!

Vegetarian options: Mostly meat/seafood dishes but you can find lots of tofu options. Good for gluten-free with their rice noodle dishes.“

“The food is delicious no matter what you eat, The owner goes above the call of duty to make you welcome! Great hospitality love it !!“

“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 .“

“Best banh mi I've found in California. Very high quality and delicious, with lots of options. The service is fast and friendly as well. I highly recommend it! It's primarily for takeaway, but there is one small two seater table in front.“

“Great food❤️Great service, great atmosphere.“

“Order at the counter, grab your number and sit down. Crispy duck banh mi was delicious . The bread was crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Chicken spring rolls were pretty good. I would come back to try their pho and traditional sandwiches.“

“Been coming here since they opened up. Bahn Mi’s have almost been a must get, and the pho is absolutely the best in town. Their Vietnamese coffee will out an energy drink in its place. Love getting a combo rice plate during the summer and the salad is also so crisp and refreshing.

Service staff here is unbeatable and always remembers their regulars.“

“The staff is always attentive and the food is very yummy!

They have a very good menu. Lots of pho and rice options with a good amount of drinks too.

The seating area is quite roomy and they're super accommodating when we eat as a family of 7.“

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

“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.“

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

“we eat there for lunch quite often. the food is absolutely fresh, healthy and super delicious. the vegan options are just wonderful. highly recommend. 2000 Sierra point building in Brisbane CA“

“A convenient lunch destination after arriving on Oakland Airport and heading southbound toward Fremont. If you are a soup noodle lover, this is great place, good selection on noodle type, combo of proteins and good selections on drinks. Good comfort food after getting off the airport.“

“If you’re looking for a place with authentic Vietnamese cuisine, you’ve found it. The people here are kind and genuine. I have nothing but positive things to say about the culture they bring to this area. Do not miss out on an opportunity to eat here. Especially if you’re from out of town!

Kid-friendliness: They don’t mind kids. All types of families here.

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s all tables you can remove the chair from and put a wheelchair“

“Ordered pickup for my family this afternoon and we were blown away by our dishes. The garlic five spice chicken noodles were impeccable. The curry soup with chicken was scrumptious. And the barbecue pork rolls were to die for. We will definitely be coming back again.“

“It’s a little crowded even though it’s 4pm on Thursday—many takeout orders. Very authentic Vietnamese I think. Their Vietnamese fresh spring roll was awesome 👏
Would like to visit again to try other foods.
The tricky part is no parking around the place. You need to find a public street parking.“

“I love the broth!!!! I can tell that you must have braised the broth forever since the broth was so good. I was busy each time my husband wanted to take me so I asked him to buy to go. OMG a I opened the door coming home to smell Pho all over my home. It felt as if I was at the restaurant. The aroma was pho-Ing good!!! The meat was pho-tastic.and I love the huge volume of onions and fresh tasking ginger in every bite. If you love pho or if you love noodles or if you love food, then you must visit this Pho Thin Ha Noi - pho-ing good.“

“I absolutely loved my visit here! The service was top-tier—our server was attentive without being overbearing and made excellent recommendations. The food was a burst of flavors; the pho was hearty and flavorful, while the banh mi had the perfect crunch. The ambiance was cozy yet chic, with a relaxed vibe and soft lighting that set the perfect tone for a great meal. It's the kind of place you can visit time and time again and always have a fantastic experience.“

“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.

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

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

“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!“

“Had the vegetarian spring roll, banh mi, and pho. Flavors were good especially helpful for cold. Add little spicy sauce to make the pho taste even better. Service was great and very polite. Would recommend if you are looking for vegetarian options.“

“I made an order for only one of my favorite dishes “38. Vietnamese Beef Stew Noodle Soup” Large size. The portion was huge and the taste was so good. The beef stew’s made perfectly the way I love it. I will definitely go back for it again and again. Thank you for making my day!“

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

“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“

“Pho Little Saigon is a cozy spot for a hearty winter lunch. Their large pho bowl of PHỞ BÒ VIÊN TÁI (beef balls and rare steak), paired with a Soda Chanh, is a perfect combo. The broth is rich, flavorful, and deeply satisfying, while the portions offer an excellent meat-to-noodle ratio, ensuring every bite is balanced and hearty. The service is quick, though table cleanup can occasionally lag. Seating is self-serve, and clean tables are generally available. At around $20 for a large bowl, the price feels fair for the portion and quality. A great place to warm up and enjoy comforting Vietnamese cuisine.“

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

“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.“

“Super Thai / Chinese blend of food; good quality; freshly cooked; nice ingredients and variety, especially in our vegetarian dishes. Calm and relaxed atmosphere of a family run place, served by owner herself ( Jenny), and not at all fast or felt rushed with service.

Hot n sour vegetarian soup, kumpao tofu, Singapore noddle were very well made. Would love to try other vegetarian options next time - eggplant, Tom kha soup and spring rolls. Even the spicy sauce is nicely done a bit sour goes well with all dishes and even plain jasmine rice.

Recommend for Palo Alto midtown folks to patronize this place. Open 7 days, hard working family run.“

“Healthy options Good price“

“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.“

“good soup, portion and taste“

“If u like not so sweet desserts and drinks, this is the place to be. We ordered the ube, pandon, and matcha waffles. You can really taste the tea in the matcha. All were very good and light in sweetness. I had a fruit addict drink. Very refreshing. Cute little atmosphere, friendly customer service, the parking is a bit tight. I've gone in there twice. Very low key area.“

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

“It's hard to describe how great this place is, I have been there twice and this is the valentine day lunch. Notice the little details, tiny mint leaves on one piece, tobiko on another. Everything is fresh and pops with flavor. You can really tell they care about the food they put out. If this was a regular restaurant in Belmont there would be lines out the door every day.“
