Hits the spot if you’re looking for a late night bowl of noodles.

There were three of us, each ordering Pho noodles. Surprisingly, the server put a dish with only bean sprouts and jalapeno on our table, and no basil nor mint! First time that has happened to me.
The bowl did have a good amount of meat and noodles, but without the basil, it is missing something.

I was looking for a restaurant to pick up food from late in the evening and stumbled upon this spot. I ordered dry Hu Tieu with seafood and was pleasantly surprised by the serving size! The shrimp/mussle/squid were all cooked well and the broth was very tasty too. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other menu items.

We came here as family and order sturgeon hotpot. It’s really tasty and we enjoyed it.

This place is one of the best pho restaurants in San Jose. Very nice people, the food is perfect and good price. You have four choices of noodles with no extra charge. You can customize your pho soup and it is now a special price of $12.5 for all phos. This is excellent.

Great food + friendly service! ❤️

This was previously Ca Mau and unfortunately I didn't care for it as much as I hope I would. They do offer some great "bar food" dishes like deep fried chicken feet and sea snails in coconut sauce. I ordered Hu Tieu dried noodles and not much flavor going on. Good amount of portions though.

Came here for lunch before work and the place was pretty empty. English is a language barrier so be patient. I was excited to see Bun Rieu on the menu and gave it a try, but...regrets. There was like 1 small clump of crab meat and the broth was super diluted. It was like pho broth with a half tomato squeezed in it. Super disappointing and not sure if I even want to try the other menu items.

This restaurant is very spacious and has a lot of seats, and a lot of parking. The service is very good, I am very satisfied. I tried the Bun Rieu here, but the flavor was not very great. 6/10. Everything else is OK. I also tried Thai Tiger, but it was very bland. 3/10

The food was very good with high quality ingredients, although the pho broth was average. This restaurant is clean, friendly and welcoming.
Unfortunately the large mural on the East wall is now gone and has been replaced with some tasteful decorations and televisions. While the interior is nice, the music is too loud making for an unpleasant experience.
I think this is a 5 star Vietnamese restaurant experience with some improvements to the broth, turn down the music by half, and add some natural touches such as live plants, etc.

Food is the worst thing I've ever eaten in my life, nothing to do with Vietnamese food

The dining experience was extremely disappointing. The escargot and mussels were obviously not fresh, and the clams had a terrible smell and taste.

The Hu Tieu Nam Vang was especially bad—overcooked, soggy noodles with just a small amount of minced pork and missing essential toppings. Who puts romaine lettuce on Hu Tieu Nam Vang?

The staff appeared untrained and had difficulty with basic service. Surprisingly, the restaurant was nearly empty on a Saturday night, a time when it should have been bustling. Unfortunately, the food is overpriced and not worth it.

I ordered the P6 Pho Your Own (pick 3), which tendon, tripe and meat balls with clear noodles. The soup was ok but the tendon was kind of hard and the meat balls like half of the medium size beef meat ball cuts into 3 pieces, not much of ingredients.

I loved the place and it was cozy. I recommend that you better order individual versions of the dishes because the one that is for the center is not the best. Customer service is terrible, that could improve
