Pho Ga, is my go to and known as their signature dish. If you're there right now go look on someones table it's probably what they ordered. The Vietnamese coffee is very strong and sweet, just how I like it.

Very very displeasing food. It's acceptable but it's not particularly good. They said we can't split the check 2 ways even though we asked in advance, and their spring rolls had shrimp AND chicken in it and they didn't specify that on the menu so my vegetarian friend couldn't eat it. And the water cup they gave me is tiny. There was uncooked chicken skin in my food. Service was bad. I've never been more dissatisfied with a restaurant. All four of us left unhappy.

The northern style pho dac biet and chicken pho are both excellent! The broths here are very clean and i love the wider noodles featured in northern style soups.

Nice pho for the morning!

Hands down the best pho ga (chicken) in San Francisco, if not the broader Bay Area. This is Hanoi i.e. “northern style” pho, meaning there are less sugars and spices so the broth is cleaner and healthier. The noodles are flat and wide, the chicken is always moist, and this will, without fail, cure you of whatever damage you did the night before. Can’t endorse TT enough…they deserve your business!

Great place to try northern style Phở which is unique in SF. I loved Phở Bò Ðặc Biệt (Combination of Rare Beef, Tripe, Well-done Beef Noodle Soup), the soup was crystal clear, and even though there was tender super rare beef and crunchy tripe, it didn't smell strong at all - so it's super fresh.

Decent northern style Vietnamese cuisine. The service is okay and fast. The flavoring is also okay but decent spot to meet with friends for lunch/dinner. The neighbor is a bit sketchy, so please be careful when parking in the area. They take card/cash.

Had parchment paper in my pho. Meat likely frozen. Doesn't taste much like pho. Noodles not typical rice noodles. No hoisin sauce provided. Worst pho I've ever had

Food was ok. Definitely not the best Northern pho in Bay Area as they claim on their wall (go to South Bay for way better; eg Pho Ha Noi, Pho Ga Nha, etc). The whole surroundings were horrible. It’s located in the most sketchy area of San Francisco so our eating experience was impacted by that a lot. Staff was ok. If you want to eat surrounded by homeless people in scenes from The Walking Dead, definitely a place to visit. It was our first time and the last time I brought my family there.

Been going there for 7 years. Used to be good, now just complacent. Services are terrible as they never check on you. Before you are even done eating, they shovel the check in your face, without asking if you are done.They started charging money for the crappiest tea, which used to be free. This is how you thank your customer’s loyalty?

Always delicious chicken pho here. I usually go for the #10 pho with chicken giblets or pho ga long (liver, gizzards, etc), which will not be for everyone. The broth and noodles are always satisfying to savor along with the giblets to munch on. Vietnamese coffee also hits the spot. I always take my visiting friends and family over here.

This is a good spot to eat around tenderloin if you like soup. Chicken soup always good never gets old. Service was very fast and reasonable price
