Absolutely wonderful food, and very nice people. Epic goat soup

Gillooly Family

Just a fantastic little Vietnamese spot. While their pho is fantastic, and well worth ordering, the menu also features less standard fare like goat soups and various other specialties (I love the peanut noodle soup, which I order with mixed noodle). Efficient, friendly service and a clean, simple atmosphere.

Best dry Noodles in the Bay Area hands down! Quality and sauce is to perfection not like most place is too salty or sweet. Pho quality is also a hit and broth is on point as always. Spring rolls was fresh and thick perfect for dipping the most delicious peanut sauce. Perfect balance and a Must try and not to mention the service is always 5 Stars ⭐️!

Goat Noodle Soup — a rare-find. Not funky, but deeply savory (slightly medicinal) broth perfect for reviving from a hangover or when in need of a healthy pick-me-up. Served with fresh chrysanthemum greens for a refreshing bite. Tender meat, boiled to perfection.

Very clean and tidy interior and bathroom. Popular with the second generation crowd.

One of the best Bun Chas I've had, served by friendly people in a pleasant environment. The neighborhood is sketchy but...

Phò so good it's therapeutic. Discovered this location after visiting a shop nearby and loved it. The ingredients are fresh, the prices pretty affordable and the location is casual. The service was friendly, cheerful and on point. I will be making another visit very soon. Thank you for your dedication to authentic Vietnamese food!

Lemon Pepper is a secret! You could easily drive by and not notice this restaurant but double back! Lemon Pepper is family owned, the wife does the cooking, the husband whose name is "Long" takes the orders and you get generous servings of good, authentic Vietnamese food! The "father" whom you won't see makes an incredibly delicious hot sauce that might not be on the tables. ?Come check out their menu. Everything is always fresh and good! Sometimes, especially on cold days, I just order their Phó broth!The biggest secret and known by very few is... Lemon Pepper has THE BEST Vietnamese Coffee in all of Oakland!
