I've had my fair share of trying a great variety of pho restaurants, from NorCal to SoCal, and this place is not the greatest. If I could give it a zero, I would. The broth of the pho consisted of strong spices that were extremely overwhelming and I understand that pho broth has star anise, cloves, etc., which are the main ingredients to pho, but for some odd reason, their pho broth was too herbally. There's a difference between a subtle pho broth and a broth that is too strong because of spices.In addition, I tried their Bahn Mi and that sandwich was plain and not worth the money. They slapped the marinated meat, cilantro, carrots, daikon, and jalapeños onto the sandwich and called it good. On top of that, the sandwich was so small that you could tell the bread from the inside was taken out. There was no flavor to the sandwich, PERIOD! Most, if some, pho restaurants make Bahn Mi with flavorful marinated meat and add some type of mayonnaise or pasting to the bread, but this restaurant didn't have any of that. To add, when I ordered my Bahn Mi at the front counter, I could tell the girl and man were laughing at me because of the way I pronounced Bahn Mi. They were talking in their language and kept mimicking how I said Bahn Mi which made it obvious that they were making fun of me. I'll most definitely never go back there again based on their food and service.

I really like the food here and especially the boba teas and vietnamese coffee. They brew real tea that is used in their teas. Many places just use a powder mix. The customer service is always friendly and they all take pride in the quality of their food and drink. I always have a ton of questions and I always get perdect descriptions and great recomendations. The prices are good too.Vegetarian options: They will customize

Pho Bowl is located in a big plaza with plenty of parking. The restaurant has plenty of indoor seating. This review is just for their Vietnamese Coffee. Came here for an afternoon caffeine hook up and was glad to see they not only offer vietnamese coffee but also a vietnamese coconut coffee. Their coffees are strong but it did hit the spot. Their servers are a bit aggressive, a smile wouldn't hurt with their service.

Great Pho but they are getting overpriced (like most of Oside) and stingy with meat. I don’t want to spend $15 on a basic noodle soup dish with little meat. This place used to be pretty amazing but now disappointing. Also their limited speciality ‘spicy wontons’ are a joke so AVOID AT ALL COSTS ($15.50 for absolutely plain garbage wontons).

Came here after a weekend full of wedding parties, and it definitely hit the spot to cure my hangover.Ordered 3 egg rolls as appetizers and then got a large bowl with extra meats. The cinnamon flavor was stronger than moth Pho places I've been to, but it was still good.Service was very quick and order came out within 5-10 mins.I'd give 5 stars, but I wasn't a fan of staff sweeping, taking out trash also while serving food. Also, please refill your paper towels often! Very inconvenient when after washing hands the dispenser is out of paper towels.
