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.“

“Very good Vietnamese food, very clean, fresh, delicious, with such great, great service! Family style meals! Would recommend to all. Must try all of the other many dishes here asides from always ordering the lettuce wraps with the meat rolls, still can't remember what this dish's name is though I've been told, like, 20 times. Horrible memory. Hot tea is very good too!

I don't think they have pho or bun, just an FYI.

In the Milpitas Center Shopping Mall strip mall with Paris Baguette, Daeho, Jang Su Jang, Grocery Outlet, etc.“

“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.“

“I had a very good experience at this Thai restaurant overall. I ordered the meatball pho and it was great. The prices were fair for the quality, which makes it a great value.

The service was friendly and attentive, although I have to say the atmosphere of the restaurant wasn’t particularly warm or inviting. Despite that, the good food and solid service made up for it. I’ll definitely come back again.“

“I cannot begin to express the quality of this place. Pricing is average . 15 $ a plate great appetizers. But guys the vegetable soup and chicken noodle soup were how can I say this..... I have been looking for a place that tastes like gramas cooking and this is itt!!!! Everything carefully wrapped with precision and the toppings are so amazing. And if you speak Spanish , Los CALDOS ESTAN MARAVILLOSOS. FRESCOS LOS RECOMIENDO.. AND ONLINE ORDERING WAS EASY ,FAST , AND SO YUMMY . THEY ARE OPEN ON NEW YEARS ... WILL BE OUR GO TO FROM NOW ON . 100/100“

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

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

“The place is very clean and cozy. Staff were friendly and welcoming.
We tried the crispy pork belly rice and grilled chicken vermicelli — both were delicious!
The pork belly was perfectly crispy outside and juicy inside, while the chicken paired really well with the pickled carrots and daikon.
Rice and noodles were fresh, and the cucumber added a nice crunch.
Good portion, fair price — definitely worth coming back!“

“Adorable, small family atmosphere with large food portions. Peaceful and clean. I ordered the soft Chow Mien and thoroughly enjoyed the heaping portion of perfectly cooked vegetables. The mushrooms were shiitake- quality food rather than cheap oyster mushrooms.

One man was handling the tables and to-go orders. Arrive patient and understanding- he works hard and walks slow due to pain. Your good food is well worth the minute or two wait.

The menu holds both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options.“

“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.“

“Vi at Fremont Pho Ha Noi was super sweet, she constantly checked on us, and sensed that we prefer spicier sauce as South Asians, she asked whether we would like to have a spicy sauce and we just said yes unanimously! Small things like these make a big difference. And also she asked me whether I'd like ketchup with my chips, and that's super sweet of her. She made everything better about this place. Vi, hope to see you again when we visit the restaurant again!!“

“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. 👍😋“

“Big Bites is one of those rare spots that just gets it right. Both my daughter and I love the food here. Everything feels fresh, bright, and clean, from the flavors to the presentation.

Our go-to favorites are the chicken and veggie pho and the banh mi. The ingredients taste vibrant and thoughtfully prepared, and you can tell real care goes into every dish. I am especially looking forward to trying the curry next.

Beyond the food, the service is genuinely warm and friendly. You feel welcomed the moment you walk in, and that makes a big difference.

Highly recommend Big Bites if you are looking for fresh, comforting food made with heart.“

“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.“

“This is one of the better Vietnamese restaurant. They offer wide variety of Vietnamese food.
I like their short ribs the best. And their big bone short ribs pho is also very good.
But I liked the soup base in their pho noodle. And they give you a good portion for the price that you're paying.
It has high CP.
To avoid long line, go either before lunch hours or after.“

“This family run neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant is well run. It offers 71 menu item in appetizers, pho, sandwiches and rice plates. The prices are reasonable given the portion sizes. The restaurant is well lit, airy and has an open kitchen design. Staff is friendly and efficient. It has long hours, open till midnight.“

“Delicious noodle soup. Great service!“

“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!“

“If you’re looking for a spot that does everything right, this is it! From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place is special. Their bánh mì is hands-down one of the best I’ve had — perfectly toasted bread, flavorful meats, fresh herbs, and just the right amount of pickled veggies. Every bite is pure satisfaction.

And can we talk about the desserts? 🍰🥤 Each one is deliciously unique and so satisfying, especially paired with their coffee — rich, smooth, and brewed just right. The dessert selection alone is worth a return visit.

This place is easily one of my favorites — excellent food, great drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend to anyone who loves bold flavors and quality eats!“

“Fast friendly service and delicious food“

“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.“

“Pho Lan, a true family-run establishment in Fremont, delivers exactly what matters most in Vietnamese cuisine: spectacular, authentic flavor and generous value. While this isn't the spot for a luxurious, white-tablecloth experience, it is hands down the best place to find truly delicious pho and rice dishes in the area.

The primary reason to visit Pho Lan is the food, and they execute it flawlessly. The flavors here are deeply authentic, showcasing the care and tradition that only a family business dedicated to its craft can provide.

The Pho: The star of the show is, naturally, the pho. The broth is rich, complex, and clean—the hallmark of high-quality pho. It’s clear that the broth simmers for hours, resulting in a depth of flavor that many chain restaurants simply cannot replicate. Whether you choose a classic rare steak or brisket combination, the meat is fresh, and the portion size is substantial.

Beyond the Broth: While the pho is a must-try, the kitchen excels across the board. The rice dishes are equally noteworthy, featuring perfectly cooked meats and well-balanced marinades. If you're looking for Vietnamese food that tastes just like the dishes prepared in a traditional home, Pho Lan delivers.

Pho Lan offers excellent value. The portions are notably generous, ensuring you leave completely satisfied. In an age where many restaurants are shrinking servings, Pho Lan maintains a commitment to great portion size, making it a fantastic choice for lunch or dinner without breaking the bank.

It is important to manage expectations regarding the dining environment and service. As a dedicated, family-run operation, the entire focus is on efficiency and getting excellent food to your table quickly.

Ambiance & Service: This is not a restaurant built on trendy decor or overly solicitous service. The atmosphere is simple, casual, and functional. Service is efficient and straightforward, reflecting the priority of the kitchen over the front of house flair. If the quality of the food is your main metric, you will be thrilled. If you expect a high-end, polished dining experience, you might need to adjust your expectations. Pho Lan is an honest, no-frills location dedicated to its culinary mission.

Pho Lan is a Fremont treasure. It’s the kind of local spot that deserves strong community support because they consistently nail the most important element: the food.

For authentic flavors, generous portions, and truly delicious Vietnamese cuisine—from the masterful pho broth to the flavorful rice plates—Pho Lan is highly recommended. Come support this dedicated family business and enjoy some of the best Vietnamese food Fremont has to offer.

This was long due- will post pictures next time I visit them.“

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

“Dakao sandwiches has been around for over 30 years maybe 40. Decor is probably original. Anyway banh mi sandwiches are generally good. Expect to pay 7 dollars for a standard banh mi. They use a 10 inch narrow baguette. Filling is ok but uneven. Buy 2 and it's still less than what you would pay for a sandwich from a deli or sandwich shop.“

““Authentic” is the best word to describe this place, from the food to the staff. I’ve been coming here when I am in the area since a Vietnamese coworker introduced me to it in the 90s.

My go-to dish is the lean beef Pho, but there are many other options including rice and noodle dishes. The service is fast and the pho is delicious.

I try to arrive after the lunch rush since it can be very crowded at peak hours.“

“The pho ga is flavorful. The steam chicken is tender and delicious. I warmed up the chicken since I prefer it that way. The chicken wings are bigger than normal, but they taste good.
A big shout out for an excellent service. 👍👍“

“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.“

“2.15.2026- it was our second time after 2 years. This time we tried the combo beef pho with Bê Thui (Smoked Veal). The broth was clear and not salty or greasy. A generous amount of meat and a big chunk of gristle (I love gristle 😁). Surprisingly the Smoked Veal really added a nice touch to the pho. You eat it by dipping it in a light soybean paste. Over all, it was delicious.
The restaurant is always bright & clean. Service can improve. They could come back at least once to ask if we needed anything else like hot tea or water. Still we will come back to try something else soon.“

“Blend knows how to prioritize customers. The food is balanced and flavorful, the people there are kind and courteous. The only problem is that there needs to be more Blend out there (longer open hours and locations), which I think justifies a 5 star rating.“

“Pho Ty is a great place to enjoy delicious Vietnamese cuisine. The dishes are full of flavor and very satisfying, especially the broken rice with grilled pork. It comes with two pieces of pork that are tender, juicy, and incredibly tasty.

You should definitely come and experience it for yourself!“

“It was a normal counter-serve Asian bowls restaurant. It won't blow you away but the ingredients are quality, and the service is pretty quick. Prices are the best you'll get in dtmv.

Not too many customers and the ambiance is very underwhelming, but you can eat outside so irlt really doesn't matter.“

“Have been here a few times already and everything is consistently delicious. Thought it was about time for a review! Most recently, I ordered the pho ga (chicken pho) just as it is and it was flavorful, full of good size chicken pieces, ample noodles, and the broth was perfect. Toppings on the side were plentiful (basil, lemon, sprouts, etc.). I also ordered a soda chanh (lemon soda) and some spring rolls. Again, never an issue with the freshness or quantity provided. Just loved it and highly recommended you pay this restaurant a visit if you're in Union City and are seeking a wonderful Vietnamese restaurant. While I haven't tried the other meat/rice dishes they offer (since I typically only ordered pho), my other family members have and will attest that they are made well and are of sizeable portion. Also, the family that runs this place is always kind and efficient. Thank you so much!“
