Dark skinned beautiful lady who is a bit thicker was super sweet and helpful. Treated everyone with respect, including an impatient rude man who was rushing the team for his order. They missed my order but she managed to still assist me by getting to the root of the problem and finding a solution. Arturo (according to my receipt) took my order. He was very kind. Sweet individuals. Food was also great!

We tried Tay Ho at the Oakland Airport and walked away with mixed impressions. The pho itself wasn’t bad, but it was very simple, very little meat, light on noodles, and overall not the abundant, flavorful bowl you’d expect for the price. We paid $50.14 for two small pho and two drinks, which would be reasonable if the portions and quality matched what you can get in the Bay Area, a region known for excellent Vietnamese food.
Service felt rushed and disengaged, which added to the sense that this location is running on airport traffic rather than genuine hospitality. When you’re hungry in an airport, you make do, but if this were located anywhere outside the airport, it would struggle at this quality and portion level.
Would not return. Question? Where is the management at the Oakland Airport? 2.7 average rating when I left this review. Honestly Oakland, do better.

I’ve been eating lunch at Tay Ho downtown Oakland since the opened. Ate here because their food was always superior. This is awful. Avoid. Go elsewhere. My eggs are grey-green and the hash browns aren’t cooked or seasoned. Ugh…

The sandwich was fine but what's the point of the sandwich maker wearing gloves if in between sandwich making, the person goes and touches coffee pots touched by exposed hands and comes back and makes sandwiches without changing gloves?
This is like wrapping the sandwich on the outside of the wrapping sheet. Defeats the purpose.

Oakland Tay Ho in Southwest terminal offers a solid Chicken Bahn Mi. Crisp vegetables, sweet and ample chicken and taste the smoky BBQ. Huge portion. $20 (airport prices) so not a bargain. Good for the go. I’ll be back on my next travel through OaK

Had a pork banh mi which was very good. The pork had a fantastic aroma. I got the added egg which made it much better in my opinion.
There wasn’t much room to eat though which isn’t a huge deal

Food was terrible. Chicken and pork were extremely hard and not edible. They were also very dry even though they looked savory. The fried spring rolls were dry also. Definitely do not recommend. The food looks amazing but tastes like crap. Save your money.

This Pho place is the worst I’ve ever had. For $20, you get a bowl with broth that barely covers half of the bowl. I asked for more, and they wanted extra charge. It’s ridiculous!
I don't have high expectations for airport food but this was a shockingly bad, close to inedible meal. Ordered a rice bowl with pork ($20) and basically just ate rice, lettuce, and fish sauce for dinner because the pork was burnt/dried to a crisp. It hurt my teeth just trying to chew it. It was close to jerky. It was also 7:10pm on a Tuesday and we got kicked out of the eating area because they were closing.

One of the best breakfast sandwiches you'll find at any airport. Reasonable price too. Good, not overly sweet, Vietnamese coffee

A very plain, bland breakfast sandwich. Really not at all enjoyable other than like, sustenance. For the price especially not worth it, but such is airport food. This review is just breakfast only.
