Tasty, fast, fresh, and attentive service. Not cheap at $15+ for the smallest bowl so that’s the only downside.

Compared to 2019, 3 days ago I stopped to eat and buy takeout.Quality is not good.The takeout was missing hoisin sauce and chili sauce. The meat can't be thinner?.I'm disappointed!

So good! I ordered the oxtail noodle soup and added meatballs. The oxtail was super tender and the broth was flavorful and not greasy. Also, their freshly squeezed orange juice is a must-have! Staff is always super nice and attentive! Definitely a go-to spot whenever I'm in town!

One of my favorite pho place! I love that I can taste the beef flavor of the meat, you know they use good quality of meat. The place opens at 8am which is really an advantage for parents like me that after dropping off kids from school, I can get pho to start the day. They have different y Types of pho, coffee and fresh juices. Service is quick, place is decent its a fast pace reataurant and can get packed with customers quickly. You can choose where you want to seat, if you want outside or inside. So many patrona coming here. Highly recommend!

Viets know this is one of the best Pho spots in SJ. It's very traditional southern style pho. Wait can be long on the weekends so come early. Located near Boiling Crab. Service is super fast. I love their fresh noodles and how they slice the green onions.

They automatically added a 18% tip without saying anything. I paid by card and clicked on the 18% tip on the screen. So I was charged double for the tip. Never come

I recently moved to San Jose and have been trying a lot of pho restaurants in the area. I found Pho Papa and gave it a try. It's by far the best pho restaurant in the area. The ambience is nice and the place is clean. The customer service is great and food is delicious. I highly recommend trying this place!

This place was recommended by my friends in the Bay Area and it did not disappoint! The soup was clean and unique in comparison to other pho soup I've tried in the past. The beef rib was super tender which I really enjoyed as well. I also loved the ambiance and the cleanliness of this restaurant, and the service was extremely quick. For dessert, I tried #16 from the menu and it immediately became my favorite drink of the trip! I will definitely go back, 10/10 recommended!

The pho is ok but the prices have gone way up and the service isn't good. They've gotten to the point where they just nickel and dime the customers for everything. Also, the portion sizes have gotten smaller even though the prices are significantly higher than what they used to be not even that long ago. Also my wife ordered a dessert and they gave her the wrong one, when she said it wasn't what she had ordered they told her "It's already been made so we can't change it". That's the final straw. We won't be going back. Lots of other places we can choose from.

The beef Pho is amazing. I walked into here with little appetite and had a bowl and had a bowl of pho placed in front of me that I couldn't stop eating. The meat was so juicy and tender (the portions were generous) on top of that the workers were so nice! They checked up on us multiple times and made sure we had everything we needed. Although this is a far drive from my house I cannot wait to come back. Thank you again for giving me and my friends a great experience. Do yourself a favor and visit them next time you're craving pho.

Been here quite a few times since I moved from SoCal and it's definitely one of my favorite spots in SJ to go to. Although it can get busy sometimes, service is super quick and the workers are all very friendly. Menu is simple with only pho items as entrees, I always order rare steak and it's super tender every time. I also love the texture of tendon here. P.S. get the coffee if you're looking for a STRONG afternoon pick me up. I was wired for the rest of the day!!!

This is certainly the best Pho in town. Great food and good service. I would love to come back and to recommend to others.
