The food is not good but the price is too expensive

Went here for a late dinner out of the blue while exploring Polk Gulch. There are many Asian restaurants in the area and I'm so happy we chose Hoi An. The service was great, no wait time. Seats by the window with outdoor seating options as well.

We had the Vietnamese Noodle dish with Filet and it was cooked to perfection and very tender and flavorful. Also had the vegetarian tofu curry with rice and that was great as well.

Vegetarian options: We had the tofu red curry over rice and the texture and flavor was rich and excellent for a good price. There were several other vegetarian and pescatarian options in the menu but as well as meat dishes. Something for everyone, good for taking a group and sharing dishes.

We were amazed by the food. The garlic noodle tastes so good and the beef is so tender and cooked really well. The Ha Noi Rice vermicelli is also good which is a plate you taste different kinds of food, the grilled patty and the pork skewers are delicious. Will definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy the fine Vietnamese food

Amazing food! We ordered Ha Noi Rice Vermicelli and cubed filet mignon wok fried with garlic noodles. Both are amazing! The vermicelli comes with many freshly-made sides and a wide variety of herbs. The wok seared filet mignon is among the best filet mignon I’ve ever tasted, very tender and covered by flavorful sauce. The crispy potatoes in the dish is also a delight! Service is friendly too! Would definitely visit again!

My girlfriend's new favorite restaurant. It was an upscale(ish) Vietnamese place so great for introducing her to Pho. Personally I liked that they let us get chicken with the beef broth. Finally the servers were so nice.

I think i have to give up on this place. I always get the bun bo hue and 2/3rds of the time it is excellent and worth the very expensive price but the other third of the time it is inedible and they give you the worst meat they have, just balls of gristle and fat that are inedible because you can’t chew through the gristle :/ its gross and at $25 an insult to the customer.

Way way OVERPRICED

Best dinner in San Francisco! The food is great and the staff extremely friendly!
Super recommended place!

Bit on the expensive side when it comes to vietnam food. Taste is OK. Extra ingredients then your average vietnamese joint.

Delicious pho for a cold SF summer day, with friendly staff.

Stumbled in for lunch as we needed something hot after giving up on the long line at Swan. Their standard beef pho almost had a thin/clean consistency compared to what we’re used to but was packed with flavour. The beef was tender and the noodles the perfect texture.

What really stood out was their imperial rolls. Fried perfectly and would return just for those.

Price definitely seems suspect as others have mentioned, but I’d argue it’s worth it especially if you prefer a nicer and cleaner environment than some of the other nearby options.

Great food and large portions. Nice atmosphere and a young crowd. Only thing I wish they had was in house cocktails.

A lot of healthy options, flavor was just right, not too saucy.
Their quantities are enormous, sharing works great. Need to buy rice or garlic noodles separately for entree, but an entree serves 1.5 in quantity.

Definitely try the garlic noodles.
