50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near San Bruno

“Super good!!! Would recommend to anyone. Big portions“

“This Vietnamese restaurant is worth visiting. The food was savory and mouthwatering. We ordered phō of course, but also the viet time sampler, which includes four delicious items. It was not crowded and wasn’t loud. They have a TV screen showing the food being made, which was different but also entertaining for those of us who love the Food Network.
I cannot express enough how delicious the food was! I will surely be returning here. Enjoy 💕“

“The food tasted OK at Little Vietnamese Bistro. There were two other parties when I ate here at 6pm on a Thursday night. Slow night. Food arrived shortly after I ordered. The chicken papaya salad $15 was drenched in fish sauce. It was a wet salad with a lot of nuts and shredded steamed chicken. The little pieces of crunchy dried garlic was a nice touch. It would have been nicer if there were more herbs like Thai Basil, cilantro or mint to make it more fragrant. The side of five spice chicken $7 looked dry, but it wasn't. It was juicy inside with a light coating of spices. At other restaurants, the skin can be rubbery. Little Viet Bistro cooked this correctly.

You can order in Chinese. The staff spoke fluent Cantonese to customers and Mandarin among themselves. Good job everyone at Little Viet Bistro.“

“A great soot with beautifully curated atmosphere. The menu prices and offerings are what I would expect for a Bay area viet restaurant (banh mi around $10, pho around $17). Service is very friendly and attentive! I haven’t had their pho yet but their banh mi is good. I will have to come back and try more of the menu!“

“Pardon my photo quality, I got excited and only remembered to take one after digging in. This might be the best bun bo hue I’ve had. The broth was perfectly balanced with just a touch of sweetness that created the most savory umami flavor bomb. It’s a very rich broth that’s meaty in flavor but not overwhelming. There was so much tender beef shank in this bowl. I kept finding more and more. The noodles were perfectly soft yet chewy. Service was quick but still polite. I loved the miniature collection at the front door. My boyfriend’s pho was also a huge and satisfying portion full of tasty flavor. Can’t wait to come back!!“

“Absolutely. Delicious 😋l😎“

“Amazing Banh Mi! Everything about it was amazing. I usually have trouble with the crispy portion but this bread had a thin crisp with a nice soft inner. When I went around 2pm they ran out of pork so I got a beef instead. No regrets because this is the best beef banh mi I've ever had. Very tender meat and well seasoned. I loved the amount of veggies packed in as well.

I'll definitely be back for more!“

“Ordered Crunch Combo and Lemongrass beef sandwiches. Cut them in half and shared half a sandwich each with a friend at Marina Green.

Crunch has a thin veneer of delicious pate on the bottom bread. Bread was crispy on top and soft throughout which was easy to chew. Sometimes Banh mi bread makes my jaw ache from excessive chewing. The bread they use is fantastic.

The only gripe is that there was a mouthful of gristle in my lemongrass beef, but otherwise, the sandwiches were delicious and composed well.

I’ll definitely come back. Forget the others. So far, it’s my favorite/the best Banh mi I’ve tried in San Francisco.“

“We had been here so many time prior and I love it everytime we’re in the area. The foods quality and freshness are generally consistent throughly the yrs but once in awhile, it just off, we had that couple time. Also just my pov, it is abit declined since the beginning. But they are still delish and got to have it at least one year. Services are the same, mostly great but one in a full moons just the opposite. Overall still an institutional place or landmark for SF and the Vietnamese community for sure. I tried to sit sibling places in SF doentown, BH and South coat plaza and even with the mother cooked in BH, somehow this place still carries the original and most flavorful crab ever.“

“Saigon BBQ Noodle House is one of my favorite go-tos for Vietnamese in San Francisco. The pho has a rich, aromatic broth that hits the spot every time, and their garlic noodles are garlicky without being overwhelming. Portions are large ‒ you’ll definitely leave full. The banh mi has a soft chewy bread that complements all the fillings perfectly, and even the simpler dishes show freshness in the ingredients.
Service is warm and unpretentious — staff make you feel welcome immediately. The space is casual, which makes it nice for relaxed meals, but it can get busy and a little loud at peak times. Overall price is reasonable for the quality. Highly recommend if you want authentic Vietnamese without frills.“

“Just tried for the 1st time today and ordered takeout bbq pork banh mi sandwich and a Vietnamese iced coffee. Seems like a family owned mom&pop shop, super sweet friendly service. BBQ pork banh mi sandwich was excellent, perfectly toasted bread on the outside, soft on the inside (not hard and rough like other banh mi sandwiches that hurt the roof of your mouth), delicious BBQ pork flavor, stuffed with fresh yummy pickled veggies, flavors were spot on. Vietnamese iced coffee was good, could be a bit stronger and creamier for my tastes. Overall would highly recommend. Can't wait to come back. =)“

“Great restaurant, the dishes are rich, the taste is great, the restaurant atmosphere is great, it is worth recommending“

“It had my lips smacking, stayed down the street from this place almost 4 months and just now got to try it.I would definitely bring friends next time“

“Get the grilled pork banh mi, do it! Sweet & smoky with fresh fixings on fantastic bread. Consistently delicious over the years, the quality has kept up. It's not a cheap sandwich, but it's a good size and you won't regret it. Why are you still reading this?! Go buy yourself the sandwich! Hurry!!“

“This place serves authentic cuisine with delicious options. The dungeness crab in garlic and butter sauce was amazing. All the side dishes that come with it were tasty with my favorite being the garlic noodles. Mango and Coconut ice cream at the end was the perfect touch. Great place to order family style and share several entrees. Highly recommended.“

“Great food and atmosphere. prompt friendly service.“

“Vegans items are not clearly labelled, would clarify with staff.
Got the tofu bahn mi with no mayo. Very flavorful and still moist despite the no mayo as the tofu was marinated and moist. Small amount of seating inside and one small table outside.“

“Saigon Butter Tofu Wine sauce Ox Tail Noodle Soup Crab & Pork Meatball & Tomato Vermicelli And to drink: Taro w/Coconut Slush“

“Food is just amazing. Our server John/Jon is so lovely. Filipino owned. Very welcoming and amazing. My favorite spot eversince it opened“

“really friendly staff and great eats! we will be back to work through the entire menu!“

“First time visit to Kevin and Chris Noodle house. Love the energy and good food. My friend had Pho and I had Vermicilli noodles. Also with fried chicken wings and Thai Iced tea. Amazing and all the staff super friendly and accomodating.“

“The Wagyu Pho is off the charts delicious. I've done takeout and delivery, and each component is packaged separately so the crisp veggies stay crisp and the broth stays warm. The meat is delivered raw but cooks itself in the yummy broth. Portions are large and make at least 2 meals. I've never eaten in the restaurant, but it's super cute and cozy. A true neighborhood gem and my current go-to obsession!“

“AMAZING. Accommodated our large table and made sure we had an awesome steamboat experience. Everyone was so friendly and we had more than enough food, with plenty left
Over. Then it only set us back $40 each! We will be back often :)“

“Great grilled pork banh mi!
Got take out grilled pork banh mi to go and enjoyed it outside in the Valencia Live night market. Fresh crispy and soft roll, good amount of grill porked, no excessive amount of Mayo to cover the lack of protein. Generous amount of fresh pickled carrots, cucumber slices, cilantro, and a coupe of slices of jalapeño. Yum… really great balance. Service with a smile also with the cashier and the gentleman that guided me to the cashier for my order is nice too. Will come again when I have a chance. Thanks to Valencia Live, got me out here and I stumbled upon this restaurant.“

“The fried rice here was amazingly delicious. There was only a 5-10 minute wait before I got my food and the cashier was a very friendly person. The overall ambiance of the place was excellent too for a takeout place. I give them 5 stars ⭐️. I highly recommend them“

“Parking was on a metered street. It was definitely busy, and the restaurant had a constant stream of customers, always a good sign. We checked out the Vietnamese Rice Noodle Soup and the fish cakes, with egg rolls on the side. It was excellent! We would eat there again, especially as the price was very reasonable. The Thai Tea was also tasty.“

“Visiting from MN and found this bahn mi shop. Ordered the chicken spring rolls and the lemongrass beef bahn mi and it was all magnificent!
The spring rolls were huge and we purchased two of their hot sauces for dipping and it was all delicious.
The sandwich was perfect with a crispy baguette and lots of veggies. Highly recommend!“

“delish good great owner kim“

“The pho, noticeably fragrant. 20 hours of simmering evident in the deepness of taste, buttery from the marrow drawn from bones. Clean and translucent broth, an indicator of quality. The wait time, a result of perfectly boiled-to-order rice noodles. What’s missing in decor is over-compensated by taste. Come for a rare-find bowl of solid noodle soup — no frills, but very simply delicious.“

“Tres belle déco et les plats sont excellents. Sans oublier la gentillesse de tous . Merci“

“Café Bunn Mi in South San Francisco is hands-down one of my favorite spots for comfort food!

Their garlic noodles are absolutely delicious full of flavor and perfectly cooked every time. I pay for extra noodles! I spoil myself like that all the time!

The imperial rolls and egg rolls are always crispy, fresh, and packed with goodness. For the imperial rolls I always pay for extra lettuce! They come with the vermicelli noodles and fish sauce!!!

Their fried chicken sandwich is another must-try: crunchy, juicy, and so satisfying.

And of course, you can’t forget the Thai iced tea sweet, creamy, and the perfect drink to tie it all together.

Great food, great service, and always consistent. Highly recommend!“

“Pho Ga is such a comforting stop when you’re craving a hearty bowl of chicken pho. We ordered both the classic pho ga and the curry pho ga, along with an order of egg rolls to share.

The regular pho ga had a clean, soothing broth — light but still flavorful, with tender slices of chicken and noodles that were soft and easy to slurp. It’s the kind of bowl that feels nourishing without being overly salty or greasy. The curry pho ga, on the other hand, was the standout for me. The broth was golden, aromatic, and layered with a subtle richness from the curry — something you don’t often find at most pho shops. It’s hearty and unique but still maintains that pho comfort factor.

Egg rolls came out hot and crispy, perfect with the dipping sauce and pickled veggies on the side. Service was quick and efficient, even though the restaurant was buzzing during lunch.

Overall, a reliable spot for chicken pho lovers, and the curry pho is absolutely worth a try if you’re looking for something a little different. Solid 4/5 in my book — satisfying, flavorful, and a place I’d happily revisit when the craving strikes.“

“Very good Bahn Mi, excellent vegetarian options; they use shredded/marinated tofu and their bread is always fresh. Great meatball sandwiches too. Service is Ok; you have to order through a tablet but they will help out if you need. Not a sit down place; there’s a table outside but it’s best to take it to go.“

“Used to go there when they were on Lombard when my brother worked at the presidio. We would eat our subs at Chrissy field on a park bench. He lives in Maryland now and still asks if I still go there. I moved to the Valley and would dream about the best beef teriyaki sandwich I’ve ever had.“

“we eat there for lunch quite often. the food is absolutely fresh, healthy and super delicious. the vegan options are just wonderful. highly recommend. 2000 Sierra point building in Brisbane CA“

“If you’re craving delicious takeout or have a hidden gem that’s all about flavor and not only your usual Vietnamese menu, this is the spot. The vibe and service aren’t the highlight, but the people are friendly and the food is fantastic.“

“This is my favorite food stand at Stonestown. Today I got.the Lunar New Year special which had two large rice cakes that had mung bean, topped with braised pork, sprouts and green onions. I also had my weekly porridge which is also outstanding. Definitely comfort food!“

“Great food❤️Great service, great atmosphere.“

“I always get good food and great service. Take out or dine in .“

“I invited my sister for her birthday -- something light and savory, Pho and spring rolls (and a couple of Boba drinks). From the start, my how things have changed. I came here when they were starting out, and it was similar but not the same. There was a long line and a short wait -- service is fast, albeit a little frenetic and high volume ambient noise. But, I'm there to eat and that is what we did. Surprise! The spring rolls shrunk, still good, just not too plenty. But, overall, it is as good as I remember it when they opened many years ago! #TheBrokerWithAHeart“

“Comfort foods with a variety of specialty cuisines. Especially enjoy their Laksa, comparable to Singapore’s 😇. Helpful and friendly staff.“

“Great pho, pork chops, wonton noodles soup 🍜 and wide option of rice plates and dry vermicelli bowls. I’m so glad we have a great Vietnamese restaurant in Pacifica. Highly recommend.“

“Best sandwich ever in Excelsior area ��� The bread is always crunchy and the meat is amazingly flavorful. My always choice is of course #6 grilled pork with well-seasoned meat and abundantly fresh veggies. #3 combination is also a should-try . It is what I believe the most traditional one. Besides these, a must-have is definitely Vietnamese ice coffee. It is made strong and sweet beautifully bringing me back the flavor which I always miss when being away from home. A strongly- recommended spot when you are in the area...���“

“Ordered a beef pho during lunch. The quality is amazing and there are 3 types of beef (brisket, beef balls and flank). The portion is big but the price is super affordable. I work around the corner and I can’t believe I didn’t discover this little gem earlier. Definitely will come back and try other dishes.“

“Solid vietnamese food in the sunset district. The vermicelli dish was great. I love the seasoned pork and the tang from the pickled vegetables.We all ordered pho and that was pretty good as well. The meat was not overcooked as long as you ready it before it sits too long in the hot broth.“

“Honestly can't even complain. Perfect for late night food. Piping hot pho. Good flavor bbq pork. Even has beverages as well. Service can be a bit slow, but if you're going late at night you have nothing to worry about. Definitely will come back again if i get the late night munchies.“

“Good vietnamese food at a reasonable price. It used to be my go to place for traditional Vietnamese pho and flavor remains the same as day one. Except fried imperial rolls were better before. I usually go for the combination soup #1 which had a little bit of everything beef. I also like the grilled pork on bed of salad with imperial rolls. Great place to visit when you want a simple and quick meal. Always fast service!“

“Not bad for Daly City. The restaurant was mostly empty on a Monday evening. The menu has a big +$1 price adjustment on top. My Five Spice Chicken garlic noodles $16 tasted OK. The chicken was a bit dry. Luckily they have fish sauce on the side. The pickled vegetables were served on top of leave lettuce. The garlic noodles had a hint of butter and a mild garlic taste. The disappointing part was that some of the noodles would break apart due to them being flimsy. Service was fine as I received a water refill. I was left a bit hungry still and had to get some popcorn chicken and a Thai iced tea next door.“

“Beautiful banquet 5 stars Thankyou“
