The wait wasn’t long for a Saturday night dinner (about 30 mins). The imperial rolls were just okay, nothing special. The banh cuon rolls were good - thin and full of meat. The gaozilla was big and very shareable. The meats were all very tasty, broth was also good. The shaking beef was tender and the sauce was flavorful. The claypot fish was a bit fishy but the sauce was flavorful. Never had pineapple in that type of dish before so it was different. The coconut coffee and lychee coconut drinks were decent - coconut was a little overpowering but I like coconut so it was enjoyable. Pricier than a lot of other Viet restaurants but quality of food, ambiance, and service are also all higher. Staff were all very friendly. Would recommend to try at least once.

First and last, pho broth average, don't order the godzillala pho, steak was way over cook, very pricey, didn't live up to the hype,and for steak on the side(raw), they don't do that here, how are they so cheap with the condiments if they serving 100 dollar bowls of pho

The Big Rib Pho is like you saw someone goodlooking but later realized that they have no brain. The rib meat was tough and gum-style chewy. Service and everything else other than the food were great!
My son, wife and I finally had the opportunity to experience and dine at Gao Viet Kitchen & Bar in San Francisco! For quite some time now, we've followed their trek on Instagram and we figured that last night was our time to go! We're glad we did. As popular and as well-publicized Gao Viet has been, we were anticipating a long wait time. Surprisingly, the online Join Waitlist feature was actually turned off, and when we arrived, we were seated within 12 minutes of our check-in time. The variety-filled menu made us vacillate with what we wanted to eat. We finally decided on the Garlic Noodles w/ 5-Spice Pork Belly, Wrap & Roll, What Da Duck and Brisket Filet Pho. These were definite winners. . . the pork belly, the duck and brisket meats were perfectly cooked, tender and mouth-watering, the salad greens came cold & crisp with its flavorful dressing and the broth in the pho was the best we've tasted. The atmosphere was festive and upbeat, the decor easy but contemporary. Our server, I believe Ethan, was his name, was pleasant and courteous! All in all, the experience was quite satisfying with a return visit imminent! Kudos to the staff and crew!

I got brisket and fillet pho, it was good; but the experience was not what I was looking for
This is a more special occasion type of vibe ! Not really good for a regular work lunch break

The best pho broth I’ve ever had in my life, It’s so rich in flavor. You can tell they take a lot of pride in their soups especially when it comes with their cut in meats. I will definitely be coming back as this place really stands out among the rest. Just be ready to pay a premium for high quality ingredients.

This place is quite awesome. The food was good and presented very well. The atmosphere was also good. Service was awesome for how busy they were. Don’t come here late because you will have to stay inline and wait.
