This place is a neighborhood gem! We keep coming back to Pho Avenue for its wonderfully fresh and flavorful food in a relaxed, casual setting. The staff is always so welcoming (Vin, in particular, is great!), which makes every visit a pleasure.

A huge plus is their dedicated vegetarian menu section, with plenty of delicious and vegan-friendly choices. My go-to order is the #17 Vermicelli Noodle with Tofu. Pro tip: For a little extra, I swap the fried egg roll for their amazing vegetarian summer rolls.

If you’re craving something more spicy, try the #16. White Rice - Chilli Lemongrass Tofu Spicy.

Just a heads-up: parking in the area can be tricky during peak lunch times, but it's always been worth the effort for us. Highly recommend!

I am a regular here. Best spring rolls in Santa Clara County, and I don’t have *exhaustive* experience, but I’ve tried enough to not want to try any more! Calling in an order is quick and painless, food is ready in a flash, customer service is always pleasant. Excellent all around!
Last time I checked, there were no public bathrooms, though. Not worth deducting a star, just something to be aware of. Parking lot is small, but I’ve never had trouble getting a spot.

Clean and tidy. Just the pho fell a bit short of my taste. I'd say 4.5 stars

Service was terrible. Specifically, the male waitor. Came in. Sat down. A few other tables came in after us and the waitor (bald dude) completely ignored me voicing I’m ready to order. He went to the other three tables. After about 10 mins, we walked out.

It was the worst Vietnamese food my family and I ever had!! We ordered shrimp fried rice and it came cold and hard. It looks and tastes like, a leftover rice that didn't get reheated. The fried tofu was cut into very small cubes. I reordered another tofu and it came out not fully fried. We also got vermicelli shrimp and beef that we didn't even touch as the chopped lettuce is brown and old.
I mentioned to the owner how unsatisfied we were yet she didn't say a word. So sad that I brought my family here. Never again.

Came in around 6PM on a Sunday, were the only patrons there. Five minutes after we ordered, several other parties came in at the same time and completely overwhelmed the staff.

We were briskly ignored, and had to wait a long time to flag someone down for water. Our appetizers came, but no utensils, so we had to wait to flag someone down for that too. Then our noodles came, but no veggie plate, so once again we had to wait to flag someone down again. I looked around and the other tables who came later seemed to have all their drinks/utensils/veggie plates even if their food wasn’t ready yet. Guess they work on LIFO?

The food was average, out the door for two people was $70. Will not be back.

The food was decent, but there was a fly in the restaurant, which should have made us leave. Unfortunately, we stayed, only to later find the fly in my wife's food.
