50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near San Bruno

“Amongst many local eateries this was a gem. Great service with a smile. The decor is simple and familiar and includes a large screen video of Vietnamese food preparation.
Coming ourselves from a city full of Vietnamese restaurants the flavours here were spot on. The portions were larger than we expected.“

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

“Chicken Papaya Salad and Beef Garlic Noodles…Both were delicious!“

“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😎“

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

“This is hands down the best bánh mì I’ve had in San Francisco.

The meat-to-bread ratio is incredible — the sandwich is generously packed with beef and super satisfying. The flavors are beautifully balanced: a little sweet, a little spicy, with a bright tangy kick. As you keep eating, you can even notice the fresh aroma of lemongrass. Absolutely delicious.

I’m very particular about bánh mì baguettes — they shouldn’t be too thick. I like them light, airy, and shatteringly crisp on the outside. The bread here is exactly how it should be, and it even looks beautiful. Everything just works. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“So good! I got the pork rice plate to go and took it to Golden gate park to eat it. The milk tea was ok, not sure if it’s the best tea quality but ordered it because I didn’t have water with me. TLDR the food is really good I highly recommend“

“Very good pho. The pho broth was very flavorful even before I added the herbs. The noodles were all broken apart, but not too bad. We also tried the fried wings with fish sauce. It's sweet, crunchy, and tasty, but the wings were kinda small.“

“Great as always. Went on a Saturday night.. Party of 3 + a newborn. Called around 6, and they weren't taking walk-ins anymore... Went on open table and booked a reservation for 8:30 lol

Got there early, which wasn't a problem. Drank 2 beers at the bar while we waited. We actually ended up getting sat about 30 ahead of schedule 🤞🏽

Got seated upstairs, which was a first for us. For some reason the vibe is a lot more laid back up there I feel? Could just be me, not sure, but it was more my vibe for sure.

We ended up getting a couple items that the entire table shared. Shaken beef, wok egg noodles + shrimp, bowl of white rice, as well as the roasted crab.

Everything on point, everything delish. Ended uo spending around $230 I want to say, with tip included.“

“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. =)“

“Thai Nghiep Ky Mi Gia is a fantastic spot for authentic and flavorful food. The dishes are always fresh, rich in taste, and consistently satisfying.

Service is impressively fast, even when it’s busy, and everything comes out hot and well prepared. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable, which makes it an even better value.

If you’re looking for delicious food, quick service, and affordable prices, this place is definitely worth visiting. Highly recommended.“

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

“January 2026:
Ordered food to go through Uber Eats. First time trying this place. Was very pleased with my lunch.

Had the chicken pho and the soup was very tasty 😋. Good combo of noodles and chicken.

Also had the chicken cabbage salad and thought it was delicious. Would order that again.

Also tasted the papaya shrimp salad and the tofu banh mi. Both were good. Will definitely come back again. Will try dining in next time.“

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

“Love the food here. Can’t go wrong with any of their banh mi sandwiches! They’re all good!!! Got the bbq pork today and shrimp and chicken spring rolls. The bread is soft with a perfect crunch on the outside. Spring rolls was a perfect size and you get 3 with your choice of sauce. It’s located in a shopping center so lots of parking. Got our food at a reasonable amount of time… about 10 mins. Store is clean and staff is super friendly. There is outdoor seating in case you want to bring your pup:).“

“Great food and atmosphere. prompt friendly service.“

“Third times a charm. They were open this time. So i put my laundry in the wash next door and headed over to Kitten.

I had the shrimp Mayo toasted Bread. I thought it was great. Also had the egg roll plate. They were pretty good. Both items were served popping hot. I had to wait and let them cool. This is always a must for me... hot food needs to be hot.

I had the BBQ pork sandwich. It was a little salty for me but im also getting over a cold and my tastey buds are probably a little wacky.

The bread was fresh and perfect crunchy.

All in all I will give this place another shot.“

“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“

“The peppercorn deep fried Dungeness crab was delicious. It was cooked just right. Meat was fresh, tender and tasty esp with the chopped garlic and peppercorns. The lightly breaded deep fried shell was perfectly seasoned, not too salty. Definitely will come again!“

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

“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.“

“Been looking for a place to get pho without risk of gluten and this is the place. Friendly, clean, all wearing masks, food packaged perfectly for takeout.“

“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 :)“

“It's always a treat getting food from here. They mostly do takeout, but there's a single outdoor table for those who really wanna eat ASAP. The owners run the place and they're both really sweet. The banh mi are solid: fresh, full of textures, well balanced. They serve some other options like vermicelli bowls and occasionally a beef noodle soup on weekends (bun bo hue). They've never missed with my order. Do try their Vietnamese coffee, too!“

“Ordered pork and egg roll vermicelli. It had noodles, lettuce, cucumber, carrots, bean sprouts with grilled pork and egg roll vermicelli. It is served with fish sauce and you can add spicy sauce like sriracha if you wish. Very decent place. I’d go again.“

“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!“

“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.“

“the atmosphere is big and some space but its loud and it feels like a pit of people but tbh its not bad but in general sense its quite loud and alot of people in a small but big room, service is good but they can be feisty but not really but they ain’t scared to be but this pho is very comforting and delicious the broth is bussin this is the expectation of some solid comforting pho not really fancy tasting or special tasting, the price is just a bit more affordable then other stores only bad thing is that i don’t recommend take out, they serve everything separated and the meat is raw but if boiled itl be fine but im not doing all of those steps just for take out food“

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

“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“

“There is nothing more exciting in the morning than freshly baked French rolls, Vietnamese coffee, and a Banh mi for lunch. This is one of those gems where the rolls used in its Banh mi’s are baked fresh daily.
These are some of the best Bain mi’s in town. I’ve tried them all with my favorite being the combo pork and lemongrass pork. If I had more time, I would love to sit on the outside table watching traffic go by while enjoying my meal here.
The best part is you can get 5 Banh mi’s or 4 Banh mi’s + 1 drink for $36.

Nothing fancy, but good food and local ambience. Enjoy!“

“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.“

“I'dve shared a photo of the breakfast bahn mi, but I scarfed it up! Paulette has a sweet little set up at the Sunday Stonestown Farmer's Market serving up noodles, bahn mi, and congee (cháo).

The bahn mi... Can I just recommend that you wait like 5 minutes after it's made for the egg to ooze into the baguette? It's h.e.a.v.e.n.!“

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

“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“

“The pad thai $12.95 was good. It sounded interesting to order a Thai dish at a Vietnamese restaurant. The portion was small and left me wanting. It came with a side of clear soup. Zero wait at lunch on a Saturday at noon as I'm the customer. A few people came through to pick up their go-to orders. My stir fried noodles were ready in about 10 minutes. The restaurant could use a deep cleaning as the tables are sticky but I didn't smell anything weird. This is a charming small restaurant with four tables serving good noodles on Leland St. There isn't a lot of restaurants on this block. Good job staff at Pho Luen Fat.“

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

“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.“

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

“delicious food✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨“

“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...���“

“Kevin's Noodle House is the proverbial new kid on the block on Grand Avenue, and it has stepped right into direct competition with Ben Tre. It honestly feels like two local titans going head to head for neighborhood pho supremacy.

That said, I personally prefer Kevin's. I definitely have a soft spot for it since I grew up going to their other locations, and this one delivers that same familiar comfort. The food hits the spot, the flavors are consistent, and it feels dependable in the way a good noodle house should.

The space is clean and modern, and service has been friendly and efficient every time I have been. They renovated this building quite well. Ben Tre is still a strong option and longtime favorite for many, but Kevin's feels a little more my speed. One little quirk I noticed about the waiters - none of them write down orders. They are very good and always get it right. I am glad they opened here, and I will keep coming back.“

“Excellent food with fast service. Granted we were the only party since we arrived before they closed. There was a kiosk to order but you can also use the QR code. Pho broth was ok, Bun Bo Hue broth could've been better. Portions were huge though. The dumplings and spring rolls were surprisingly delicious.“

“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.“

“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“
