“First timers! Bahn Mi's were so good! customer service was very courteous, and quick. Food was delicious, portions were worth the price. Soups looked amazing also!“

“Love their food,just need to be more attentive to their customers“

“Great combo beef Phô (all the good stuff, including tripe and tendon), a large amount of meat, plus your choice of noodles... I got egg noodles and loved it.

Served in under 5 minutes...

... Huge bowl, delicious ? broth.

Considering how expensive going out to eat is today, this is the best phô deal around.

I highly recommend this restaurant... It deserves a higher score on Google.“

“My old job in Jersey asked me to run a project out in Fremont. As i was staying out there for months on end, I came to this restaurant quite often. Always pho and bun bo hue. Amazing flavors. Great service. Can't say anything negative. They were my go to Pho spot.“

“Discovered this gem while searching for a bite to eat after a quick stop at UPS. The experience was a pleasant surprise! The Pho was like a warm hug on a cold day—richly flavorful, generously portioned, and absolutely satisfying. They also offer free water and your choice of warm or cold tea, which adds a nice touch. Plus, there’s no mandatory tip, making it feel even more welcoming. An awesome find that I’ll definitely be returning to!“

“Been supporting this place most of my teens and college years, I recommend this place to anyone looking for a lot of variety such as , pho , Banh Mi , snacks , drinks and anyone looking for ready to go food. Come early sometimes lines can be long. Expect delays too , sometimes they are short staff and get help from security which really is a great help to them.“

“Pho & Bun is hands down one of the best spots for Vietnamese comfort food in San Jose. I've been here a few times now, and it never disappoints. The pho broth is rich and aromatic you can tell it's been simmered for hours. I usually go for the rare steak and brisket combo, and it's always served hot, fresh, and packed with flavor.

Their bun dishes are also a standout! The grilled pork is tender and perfectly seasoned, and the veggies are crisp and fresh. Portions are generous, and everything is plated beautifully.

The service is consistently friendly and quick, and the space is clean and welcoming great for both solo meals or a casual lunch with friends. Prices are reasonable for the quality, and they never skimp on ingredients.

Definitely my go-to spot for a hearty bowl of pho. Highly recommend if you're craving something warm and delicious in the South Bay!“

“We love this restaurant! The food is phenomenal and delicious.“

“I love this restaurant before, because I love to eat anything!“

“I had The Combo Pho and took a Combo Bahn Mi to go.. Both very good and the bread for the bahn Mi was fresh. Also had a Thai Tea very good!“

“GreT food and good service. Prices good too.“

“The food here was phenomenal!! Our order was taken by the restaurant grandpa, and he was the sweetest. He literally walks away, and two minutes later, our food is at our table. The broth was delicious. Some of the best we have had around this area. And then best part is, it was affordable.“

“Perfect food for winter. We enjoyed the food. Order the fresh noodle and you will not regret it. So delicious!“

“Enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant, was provided excellent service and hospitality, and the food was amazing.“

“Our fave local Bahn Mi spot. If you're in Union City and craving for a Bahn mi, come here. There's eleven sandwich choices. There's a steam table with other hot foods like egg rolls, noodles, Sesame balls with mung bean. They also make fresh spring rolls, yogurt, various desserts and lots of drink choices. Try it, you be happy you did. And of course, support a small business!“

“Vietnamese friends told us about Anh Hong Saigon so we went with another friend. the seven-beef course is minimum two orders, but that was fine. a great deal of food and we talked and ate and talked.

the waiter was super helpful: told us about the dishes and how to eat. brought more dishes but didn't bother us. by 1p on Saturday, it was full.

go and order the seven beef course. only a few places offer this.“

“Excellent service and food“

“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 and Lisa, in particular, are 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!“

“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.“

“Overall food experience is 5/5 Great customer service. Generous portions for it's value. Great aesthetics it was newly renovated - comfy dining chairs and clean restrooms. The owner was very approachable and she really love the community.“

“I ordered three sandwiches (#3 5-Spice pork and #1 Cold Cut + Pate) and one Thai tea, which totaled $46. While it may be off-putting as it is more expensive than the sandwiches in Century Mall, San Jose, though, to be fair, the higher pricing could be due to location, inflation, etc.Food: The sandwich bread is not fluffy or airy like at Duc Huong Sandwiches; it is the type that needs to be eaten right away, as it is hard. As for the meat, it tastes good. Other things to note are that the pickled veggies are a thicker slice, and the taste is very subtle and clean compared to what I'm used to eating. I don't exactly need to worry about the bread getting soggy or have to ask to put the veggies separately. If this is your preference, this could be your next favorite sandwich shop. As for the drink, I wish it were stronger.Service & Cleanliness: Inside the store, it was tidied and not busy (at least on Friday at 4 p.m.). It is a nice place to purchase food to go quickly. They are available on Uber Eats; you can order by speaking with the cashier or using the iPad. The service was excellent, as they even offered to help, which was nice. I would not mind coming back here again.“

“We went for dinner on a Friday and there was no wait.
We got the Veggie Spring rolls for appetizer - The peanut sauce and the hot suace were great accompaniments.

We wanted to try the Vegetarian Banh Mi but unfortunately they had run out.
We ended up ordering the Pho Chay - Which was served warm and the broth had a really nice umami flavor (a bit on the salty side though). We also got the Bun Chay - Which was alright - It was very similar to the Pho Chay minus the tasty broth.

The surprise of the day was the Sugarcane Juice with Kumquat - It tasted great!!Quantity for price was questionable as it was just filled with ice but the drink tasted great FWIW.

Very generous portions for the entrees and we had leftovers enough for another meal for two.“

“The service was great along with the explanations of our Pho choices.“

“Fantastic experience at this small quaint mom-and-pop kinda place. The manager/server was kind enough to accommodate all our requests. The taro ube tea (without caffeine) was out of the world! Loved the pad thai, banh-mi, papaya salad too. We will be back again to try the other things on the menu.“

“Excellent food and excellent service. I love their Cho Chi Fish Fillet curry among a bunch of items on the menu.“

“Food is amazing off tops ! But disappointed on customer service from the guy who usually takes orders didn’t get his name but I felt like these last couple times we’ve been there he don’t treat us like he treats his own kind ! & that to me is a No No but overall the place is a great place to eat .“

“My favorites are always the #1 and #2, the best jumbo prawn noodle soup in the Bay Area.

I haven't been eating lunch at Pho Queen for quite a while. It was still clean and bright inside. I was lucky to be seated right away (it took me 30 minutes on my last visit) To my surprise, they still maintain the good services and high quantity of food. The price has gone up to $20 for large bowl of #2. Service was simple, polite and quick. I received my bowl of noodle soup within 5 minutes. As always, the chicken broth is steaming hot and flavorful, with the aroma of garlic, onion, jalapeno, and basil.“

“This is yet one of the best Vietnamese Restaurants in the Bay Area. The Pho and Bun Bo Hue is truly authentic. 👍😋“

“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.“

“Typically a long line to wait in during prime dinner hours but trust me, it is totally worth it. Anything on the menu will taste great but my favorite is the fried fish wrap platter. It's one of the more unique dishes here which I highly recommend! Service is pretty fast and friendly but can get bogged down a bit when packed.“

“The pho soup isn’t really traditional Vietnamese way, but more of a fusion of Mexican street tacos and pho, with a bunch of purple onion and cilantro taking over the broth flavor. It’s kinda like eating a beef taco, but in the form of the soup.“

“Food and service are both top notch. Will definitely come back/order again. We had a wonderful chat with the servers and owner here and they really made me feel the warmth of a community. They were about to close but didn’t interrupt our conversations just because they felt that we were having a good time. It’s hard to meet real humans these days! (I will be more mindful of time!) 10/10“

“Fast friendly service and delicious food“

“Decent, if not generic, place for Vietnamese food. I had the pork chop with broken rice and it was pretty good. The restaurant itself looks pretty rundown, however, with a lot of the decor being leftover pieces from the thai restaurant that occupied this space several years prior to Pho Lan. The ceiling also has a lot of visible mildew and sealant or something spread around that makes it look like it's in the process of being renovated, and the overall atmosphere is slightly dull. Other than that, however, it's quite clean. Staff was super friendly, however, and service was fast since there was only one other person other than myself there at the time as it was a weekday. Overall, it's worth checking out if you're in the area and are craving Vietnamese food.“

“I've ordered 3 dishes tonight, Banh Khot, Eggs Rolls and Bun thit Nuong. I'm very impress, the food was good. I would recommend you give them a try. Thanks for satisfying our tummies.“

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

“Amazing Vietnamese coffee and a sandwich - hit the spot! I wondered why the ratings were mixed and asked at the counter, they told me this was new ownership and it makes sense! They went above and beyond. Place is very clean and staff is friendly“

“The best bahn mi ever.
This is one of the few restaurants that sell grilled beef bahn mi . Absolutely delicious!!!
Their tofu bahn mi is also high on my list!!!

Not only does this restaurant make bahn mi, but they offer hot entrees, like noodle soup and rice dishes.
The eggrolls are delicious.
There is seating for about 20 people.
Canned drinks and juices are available, as
Are freshly made smoothies and boba tea..
Oh yeah, and the prices for the bahn mi are incredible. $6.00- $7.50 depending on what you order.
Service is fast.. atmosphere - okay.
More like a hole- in- the - wall restaurant, but a memorable hole- in - the- wall!!!“

“I came here very often in the past and before busy with my new career. I came back and got my favorite banh mi and coconut drink dessert. The best combo for me. Not include the owner is so nice and lovely.“

“The best papaya salad n Jicama n beef! I never seen Jicama beef in any Vietnamese or Thai restaurant!“

“The best pho / Vietnamese place in the area. We stumbled upon this cute place en route home and loved the food. Super quick service, fresh delicious food, polite, caring host & server who took her time to explain the dishes. Even though we entered to sit & eat right at about closing time, service was amazing!

Vegetarian options: Not too many vegetarian options“

“Egg coffee 10/10 , must try!“

“This food was so spot on! No beef, chicken is their protein. Don't come in asking for red meat. The chicken is tasty and the soup is so good! Also the homemade sauce for the chicken is an awesome taste! We'll be back for sure!!“

“A quiet little corner of this lot lies a treasure trove of pho like none other. The silk smooth noodles the thin-strips of beef, the green onions cilantro, bean sprouts perfect. The beef broth alone is the perfect savory goodness that recharges a body good after a long, exhausting day. The staff were charming and friendly! It's worth your hard earned money for an amazing bowl of pho.“

“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“

“I've gone to this location once, and the interior was very nice. I wasn't expecting it to be so big!! I ordered the vegetarian pho, it came with lots of noodles and vegetables. The broth had good flavor, it tasted good with the 2 sauces at the table. I am not a pho fan, but was surprised because this was past my expectations. Price was decent, it was $18. I believe the portions could be for 2 people because there was a lot but it depends how hungry you are.“

“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.“

“Excellent (American) Vietnamese pho, wide variety of meats, noodles and rolls, and coffees. Excellent quality, served hot or cold for just $$ . Capacious interior, for groups or individuals, without crowding even when busiest.
Friendly, attentive and quick service.“

“Food was delicious- ordered their special #1 pho, spicy noodle soup and chicken wings. Also tried their halo halo dessert and kumquat sugarcane- so good! Service was great- very attentive and friendly! Dishes were good so ordered another pho and grilled pork rice combo to go.
Will definitely come back!“
