Food was phenomenal! Ordered twice on doordash, one pickup order and one delivery. The delivery order arrived on time no complaints. Food portions are large, enough to split one garlic noodle plate for two! My pickup went really smooth, this location is inclined for delivery orders (they're popular!) so kindness and graciousness are due for the staff. They were extremely kind and considerate while I waited to grab my order. If you give kindness it's much easier to receive it! I wish them continued success and I hope they are able to optimize their flow to cater to their clientele (maybe reservations and hire a greater server for those guests who want to eat in?) Easily a favorite of mine in the bay!

Okay Vietnamese place with a no frills atmosphere. Portions are large and food was decent, but it took a long time. It was also more expensive than I expected for a place of this caliber.

This is the only pho restaurant I go to anymore – the best beef bone broth in the entire Bay Area. It’ll even turn to gelatin if you leave it in the fridge, showing how pure it is. The atmosphere is lackluster but the food more than makes up for it. My only complaint is that their chopsticks are bad, I recommend bringing your own.
The reception staff displayed rude behavior.
Disbehavior
The store employees is rudless behavior with customer also dasher
He is denied to use restroom when its emergency situation… not to good service
Terrible food. Go to Bac Lieu or Thanh Tam II. TT II doesnt have Garlic Noodles but Perillas were not good. Tasted like old noodles, a little burnt in a bad way and not flavorful. The 5 spice chicken Pho also was not a high quality. The broth was not a cared for broth. The flavor was basically non existent. Tasted like a soup starter base rather than anything home made and I work in food supply. The chicken and rice noodles were ok but compared to a Bac Lieu 5 spice chicken, forget about it. Not even close. There are much better options out there. I tried it, I wouldn't go back, especially not for take out.
Sigh. I eat from here a bunch as it is right by my house, and generally call in a pickup order. I made the unfortunate decision tonight to veer away from my normal orders and also ate in house.
I got the Curry Chicken Garlic Noodles, which are apparently a completely different format from all the other garlic noodle dishes. The noodles were in a curry sauce, completely obfuscating the normal garlic and butter flavors. Additionally, the chicken in this dish was in huge chunks that didn't have a kiss of the grill. Overall, the dish was gigantic but really monotonous and bland mushy noodles.
From the dine in perspective, the amount of couriers mobbing the place makes it chaotic to both order and even sit, I know this is a problem with gig delivery in general, but they need to wrangle it into the corner better and probably adjust their fire times in the system.
I will definitely be back and hopefully will upgrade this to three stars when I get my normal 5 spice chicken garlic noodle order in house.

The one on Irving is better.
Delicious pho and garlic noodles. But it's fitted for takeaway orders more than dine-in. No music, or vibes, just a big empty space with tables on the sides.
The best Pho I have ever had. The chicken was so good. Was not too spicy. Has some spice to it but its delicious. I am so amazed.

Unfortunately, I was a fan of this place and had a good experience until today. Got my food and my plate had a live fly crawling in it. I will not be ordering here again.
