50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Los Gatos

“This is my perfect neighbourhood restaurant. The Chicken Pho is good. The broth was tasty. But I must say the grilled pork and the grilled chicken Banh Mis are just delicious. Probably one of the best I've had. The pickled carrots, and the slightly sweet mayo with shredded chicken was just great. This is the second time I've visited with my cousin. Will definitely visit again!Plenty parking. However seating is limited. But I would gladly wait in the line to have a meal here!“

“The Beef Pho is amazing and the Vietnamese Tacos are so flavorful“

“The food is good but the service is spotty. We ran out of water and no one came to refill it. We had to waive the waiter down for the check. All in all, the food is good not the service. We ordered the chicken vermicelli and pho. Their meat was fantastic and was delicious.“

“everything is delicious!!! skewers, drumsticks and the bun Bo hue is the BEST!!!“

“4 stars for food because the taste is inconsistent. The first time I went here the food was delicious! It made me want to go back for more. The meat was tender and flavorful. The pate had a lot of flavor too. Overall the first time was amazing, and great service from Jack.

The 2nd time I went the meat didn't have flavor, like there was no sauce or it wasn't marinated. I'm not sure. It was still tender though. The pate was still great!

Out of the two Bo Ne places I've tried, I prefer this place over the other one because there's more flavor. The other place had no flavor in their pate or meat so it was really plain.

About the location:

This place is inside a food court with NO AC or air circulation, so on a hot day in SJ, you'd be sweating while eating. It can get crowded during lunch time, making it hard to find seating. There is someone there who busses the tables so you don't have to worry about cleaning up.

Service-wise is a hit or miss too but typical of an Asian place. It is what it is. I don't expect much lol.“

“The brisket is tender and juicy. Our go to comfort food with large portions. I love the open patio dining too.“

“Friendly. Excellent customer service!“

“I ordered the chicken pho, and it was quite good. While not exceptional, it was flavorful and satisfying. I added extra chicken and received a generous portion. The service was excellent, delivered with a friendly smile.

I definitely recommend!“

“My go to spot for catering when it comes to egg rolls and their fried shrimp. Each time I host a party, folks ask where I got them and it's a huge hit! Good alternative other than your average pizza party.

One thing I really appreciate is they always fry everything minutes before your pickup time so it's scorching hot and fresh 🙌🏼“

“Had the yellow noodle combo dry and some hot tea. It was 1045 and they let me stay until after closing (which I find rare in San Jose). The noodles had so many textures and layers of flavors that you can't ignore the complexity of the dish. Nice sauce that gets hit with your dip in the broth. Fresh veggies and noodles.

I spoke to the owner and she was so friendly and professional. You can tell there is a lot of care for the customer and the experience.

Surprised it took me 6 years in the Bay to get to this place. Definitely recommend!“

“One Word……. Delicious!!!! This has to be the best Vietnamese food I have ever tried. Pho 90 ain’t got nothin on this place! I got the Pho Ga (Chicken Noodle). I got egg noodle instead of the standard vermicelli noodles. They were willing to fully customize to my preference. The veggie egg rolls were golden crispy fresh hot and delicious. ?

Polite, friendly, and welcoming staff. All staff were extremely attentive. Service was quick and it was pretty busy.

I left happy and with a very full stomach.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp for wheelchair access.“

“Went to lunch here and oh my gosh the soup was absolutely delicious!! Bomb ox tail noodle soup never had pho with that meat before and it is scrumpcious!! Loved it!!! Totally recommend it!!“

“I've been wanting to try this place for a while, but the afternoon crowds always deterred me. So, I decided to come early on a Saturday morning, and I'm glad I did! There were plenty of seats available, and the service was quick and efficient.

The menu is simple, but that's what makes it so appealing. The banh cuon was the star of the show. The texture was perfect, and the flavor was even better than I remember from Tay Ho. The bun moc was a delightful surprise. It was simple, but the flavors were so well-balanced.

The restaurant was also very clean, with tables being cleared promptly. I'll definitely be back to try more of their offerings!“

“Great place to book for private party, clean and friendly environment“

“Lovely customer service, she recommended us her signature dishes. I got number 9 and 11. 9 is bbq pork wrapped in rice roll and 11 is Vietnamese crepe. The crepe has bean sprouts, shrimp and pork inside. So good wrapped in lettuce with the sauce drizzled inside.“

“One PHO place in the Bay Area. The Pho House Special is so good. Shrimp (jumble) Garlic noodle is the best. The spring rolls are always good. Very fresh and tasty. Modern Restaurant Concepts insides. Perfect place for private party.“

“I absolutely love this place. Food is fantastic, is not expensive and the staff is wonderful. The restaurant is always impecable. Food is always fresh and very tasty. My favorite is the meatball pho and also love the short ribs. Support this local business.“

“We ordered mango salad, combination fried rice and chicken stir fry with lemon grass & pepper. All were amazing. Big portion sizes. Great service! Parking lot a bit small, but waiting a few min may help as cars keep coming and going. Best vegan food in San Jose!!“

“Delicious banh mi, with mayo that seemed homemade and fresh pickled veggies! ☺️ They have vegetarian banh mi too (and it might even be vegan if you leave out the mayo).

Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian banh mi too (and it might even be vegan if you leave out the mayo).“

“Good food. Good price. Not only "banh cuon" but also other dishes are good. Our family is here almost every weekend.“

“They don't speak much English here. But I love how they just assume you speak Viet. The food was delish. Their nuoc cham (fish sauce vinaigrette) is on the spicier side. 50 for $9 what a deal

Parking: It's a pretty small share lot.“

“As some have already mentioned, a downer is this place is cash only. It's located in a small strip mall with three other tenants but there's ample parking. There's limited varieties and minimal appetizers. We tried their friend spring rolls, and the spring rolls shell were cracked (almost felt as if it was previously fried and then re-fried when you order). The Pho soup was pipping hot with plenty of condiments.

One annoyance was lot of flies that want to share our food.“

“Some of the best Vietnamese food I have ever had!“

“The best food and service.“

“This restaurant is nice and clean. Pho's broth was delicious and rich for most people. As for me, the broth was alright, Fresno pho's broth is better for sure, like pho 9. Combo pho, either thin or thick noodle, is a "must get" if you like the bone rib in your Pho, for appx $17.95 and an extra $6.95 for extra brisket. Vietnamese thick noodles mixed with veggies and chicken were interesting but not my favorite. The seasoning of this dish was mostly from the standard sweet and spicy sauce with a hint of sourness in most vermicelli dry dishes. The steak stir-fried dish was almost perfect. Our first steak dish has a piece of black hair on it but was quickly dressed by the owner, and we got a new dish after 5-10 mins. The steak was juicy and delicous. Flavor on point, and yes, I would get the steak again!! Stir-fried chicken with crisy noodles was alright. It's like eating a sitr fried dish with fried noodles instead of rice. Vietnamese iced coffee was nice and strong. Fried squid was fresh and crunchy, but I could use a little more salt to the seasoning based on my palate. Services were fast and worth it. We didn't have to wait longer than 10 mins for all of the dishes to come. This place definitely received my quality, but not quantity.“

“Very nice and good food I love it“

“This is an unassuming little place in Washington St. near the main drag of Murphy Ave. There were lots of Pho options, along with starters and more solid dishes. We went for the Pho because we were trying to shake the last effects of annoying colds. To quote my wife, the chicken option was Photastic! Very savory and flavorful with the regular add ins like bean sprouts, jalapenos, basil and onions.

The setting was basic but upbeat, and holiday tunes played while we are. The server was friendly and attentive and made suggestions to help us choose from the menu.

To those who say the meals are pricey, we paid about $50 for the both of us with the Pho, eggrolls and tip, but we got two meals out of it, and the soup apparently takes 16 hours to fully prepare. Definitely recommend.“

“Bowl of Pho has been the hidden treasure of Pho spots here in Sunnyvale/Cupertino. My wife and I love their Pho bowls both Beef and Chicken styles, they’ve always delivered high quality food. Our favorite side dish has been their Fried Egg Rolls which are STUFFED! And the Thai Teas have been sweet and delicious! Definitely our go to place.“

“I went in to get some baguette for my bo kho but forgot this place is cash only and I didn’t have any cash with me. The sale lady was so nice, she said “just come back and pay me tomorrow” with a big smile. I was thankful but a little embarrassed so I respectfully declined her offer but she already told the kitchen lady to give me a longer piece. The other sale lady also said “give her more so she can enjoy her dinner”. Luckily, I found some quarters in my car so I went back in to pay her. Thank you so much for your generosity nice ladies. I will be back to support your business ?“

“GET THE TAMARIND SOFT SHELL CRAB.

Looks great, execution needs a little work but by far the only good pho on the Cupertino side of San Jose! Pho noodles slightly overcooked, and the rib is grilled instead of simmered in soup. Soup is great though, and infinite fish sauce table side.

Also, egg coffee and sugar cane are surprisingly genuine; no shortcuts or fillers.“

“Overall super tasty broth, came out super hot up until the last bite. I am only giving one less star because I feel like the meat should be a little bit more quality. It’s was a bit tough and bland. I also got the Thai tea! Cold and refreshing, not super sweet which how I prefer my Thai tea. My total was $25 not including tip.

Staff super friendly especially I was eating alone and they made me feel welcomed.

Overall it’s in a prime location, will come back again when I have to kill time at the dealer and super hungry.“

“I usually get their small fried tofu. They're 4/$1, I had tried their chow mein, which was pretty good, but now I've been grabbing their egg rolls! $1 for each egg roll!! What a deal! Fresh and so good! They are pretty filling too.“

“Best chicken phở in town! Outdoor dinning is now available. Good food and great hosts! Feel like family here <3“

“A pretty decent pho place in this area thats accessible around the neighborhood. They have many different types of pho dishes with a small, medium or large that range between $11 and $15. They also have rice plates which aren't too bad and come with a nice soup as well as a salad. The cube steak that I ordered kind of felt a little dry and tasted flat, but as I poured some of the sauce onto the rice, it made it a little bit better. I really like the chicken soup they had on the side which made it nice. This place doesn't get too busy so it's easy to find a place to sit down. And apparently I guess there used to be more restaurants with this name. However, as far as I can tell, some of the other locations must have closed, but it looks like they got a pretty glowing review from the newspaper years ago! It also has the same owners that have been running this place and they seem to take a lot of pride in running the whole place and make sure you're taken care of even if they don't speak good English! I don't mind trying more of the dishes around and especially maybe the spring rolls they make!“

“Our go to for pho! We are so lucky for this restaurant to be in our neighborhood. Always consistent. Don’t be afraid to just walk in and seat yourself (lol) they will get to you :).Dine in, take out and delivery are all good. Had pho and multiple rice plates. Yum!Thank you to this family business! We will continue supporting you.“

“This place is great!
It is a low key place with about 12+ tables.

Our table of 4 all ordered the hieu tieu with different noodle combo

It is excellent 9/10 star
We all had the dry type with side of soup. What’s special here is you get up chose up to TWO different noodles and they have 6 GREAT choices.: original rice (banh pho), thin egg wheat noodle, thick flat wheat noodle, clear (taro starch?) noodle, large fresh flat rice, fresh banh canh (large tubular rice noodle)
I specifically had the fat flat wheat noodle and the clear noodle. Nice fresh noodles It is dressed in a nice brown sauce topped with pork meat and 2 quail egg and a large shrimp with some veggies. The flavor was excellent. The broth was also packed with flavor but very light and the pork bone also very clean taste.

Highly recommend!

I also like my other favorite hieu tieu restaurant. They are different but both excellent. This is lighter with great noodles choice.“

“Excellent service and food“

“One of our comfortable food spot, especially when no one is open in the afternoon.
No 6 is just a bigger portion of no 5. The soup is thick but warm. Full of flavor. The only downside is probably yes you can see there are crab meats but no, you probably won’t be able to taste them anyway but the soup is strong flavored. Make sure you add Chinese donut to it too.
We also love the hot crepe roll during the weekend. Perfect between the crunchiness, favor, and freshness.
Cash only. Tips are appreciated.“

“If you love authentic TRUE VIETNAMESE tasting pho come here ! It is so delicious and nutritious and it leaves you wanting more. The number 14 is filet mignon with rice and vegetable sides and mini pho broth soup. Impeccable. All the ladies as well are sooo so kind ! Shout out to them ??? I suggest this place “

“I was surprised how tasty the chicken pho was: rich, satisfying broth with fresh, tasty chicken bits accompanied by all the usual fixings. I even enjoyed the (optional) liver and chicken skin - latter had a pleasantly chewy texture. Perfect comfort food for a cold, rainy day.“

“Vpho is a fantastic place to enjoy delicious pho and more! They recently remodeled, and it looks really nice inside—modern and inviting. One thing that sets Vpho apart is that they don't cram their tables together like some other Asian restaurants, so you have plenty of space to relax and enjoy your meal. Plus, there's lots of parking available, which makes getting there easy. The restaurant itself is clean and well-kept, which adds to the pleasant dining experience. I tried the Chicken Wing with mild spicy sauce, and it was surprisingly good—tender and flavorful. The Beef Bone Pho was outstanding; the meat practically fell off the bone, and the soup was warm and yummy—perfect for a chilly day. Although I didn't try it this time, they have a cocktail menu, which sounds intriguing for my next visit. The restroom is nicely remodeled, but it could be cleaner, which is something they might want to improve. Overall, Vpho gets five stars from me for its delicious food, comfortable atmosphere, and great service. It's definitely a place I'll be returning to!“

“the pandan drink is 10/10. if you like pandan flavor, you'll love this drink

corn drink was unique. slightly savory but an interesting sweet flavor that's creamy.

will be back to try the tamarind drink

owner/operators were also very friendly and seemed passionate about their craft.“

“Friendly owner & employees. Clean & quiet“

“The food was great. I got the lemongrass beef vermicelli for $15 and my dining companions got the beef, shrimp and egg roll vermicelli bowl, same price. The price appeared to include tax. Most of the meals cost that much and they had a wide variety of meals, much more than the average Vietnamese spot. The entry to the store wasn't super disabled accessible. It seems like they are doing some construction in the parking lot. The owner says he's usually there by 9:00 or 9:30 a.m. and he closes at 8:30 p.m. He appeared to be the only person in the shop. He said he said the hours online from 11:00 to 8:00 for online orders but you can go in in person before that. He accepted an order on the phone without us paying until we got there. He takes cards and cash.“

“service was awesome and the broth was so fresh. the portion was just perfect.“

“A funky former hot dog joint with mid century modern architecture. Stop in for a quick bowl of Pho, with TOO many choices! Last time we had the seafood soup. The large size filled up 2 people who were hungry after running errands and shopping.“

“Been coming here since I was like 6-7 and I still come back and order the SAME thing 20+ years later. Amazing spot. There used to be a man working there that was so friendly cool.

He was there literally for 10+ years and I always called him my uncle lol. My whole family and friends went here. Best spot in town.

I take everyone here.“
