GAO VIET KITCHEN is a popular spot known for its delicious northern-style Vietnamese dishes and efficient service. The beef rib soup is a favorite, and the pho soup flavor is outstanding, with beef and noodles cooked perfectly. Imperial rolls are consistently well-made, and the restaurant also offers dishes like the Wrap N Roll and Phozilla, which have generous portions. While some customers feel the taste isn't significantly better than other pho restaurants and consider the prices a bit high, the overall meal experience is still enjoyable.
With locations in SF and San Mateo, the restaurant has a lively yet cozy atmosphere that customers appreciate. The interior is beautiful, although tables and space can feel a little squished. Despite some dishes needing a bit more flavor and some service being a little slow, the friendly staff and tasty food make it a worthwhile visit. The passion fruit drink is a refreshing choice, even if the serving is small. Parking is available nearby, making it convenient for many. Overall, GAO VIET KITCHEN remains a go-to spot for those looking for hearty, flavorful Vietnamese cuisine.
