SB Pho

I've been meaning to try this spot for a while, and I'm glad I finally did today! I had a large Beef Pho and it was fantastic. If you eat your veggies I recommend using everything they give you and mixing it all in the soup. A great Family-owned business that I'll be happy to enjoy again soon

I tried the banh mi out of curious (first time here), and it went beyond my expectations! The baguette was crunchy, the fillings were flavorful!

Totally recommend!

Phő’-nominal! The owner’s own recipes, unique from the other places in town. Some of the best soup I’ve ever had. Bulgogi is great too!

Not sure how anyone rates this place more than the minimum 1. We ordered two large pho and a small and got those portions. Barely a couple of slices of beef. I’m shocked.

If I don’t pay before the food came, I’d have walked away. But they ask you to pay before the food is served.

Wonderful courtyard atmosphere and friendly service. The food was great! Very fresh, deliciously seasoned and the portions were good. I will definitely be returning as I am a SB resident.

The Beef Pho was amazing and Jade is amazing. So sweet and very attentive.

SB Pho has some really delicious food. Their online menu needs updating though, because the prices are $1-2 lower compared to the actual printed menu in store. This is a bit deceiving!

I usually order the veggie pho with steamed tofu instead of fried tofu. The small is a good size, and I usually struggle to finish a large. The ratio of veggies, tofu, noodles and broth is perfect.
The side plate includes cabbage, basil, and lime. If you want bean sprouts you have to ask for these.
There are some other great veggie options on the menu such as the tofu bahn mi.
All my friends who are meat eaters enjoy all the meat options on the menu.

Overall the food is delicious and portions are good. Easy to order at the counter, find a table indoors or outside, and when you’re done eating you can just leave. Staff comes around every so often to check in. I would recommend eating here, just be aware of the price differences on their website vs what you will actually be charged in person.

You order and pay at the counter. They bring your food to the table. That's convenient because when you finish eating, you can just get up and go. There's no waiting for the check.

The pho (pronounced fuh)is outstanding. I had the small vegetarian pho with glass noodles. It was great. There was plenty of food in the small size pho. I highly recommend SB Pho in Santa Barbara.

Best pho in town. Made with real bone broth ( for the meat version) also the Bahn’mi sandwich is delicious, light and crispy bread and super fresh ingredients. It’s a small
Family run business, we love to
Support them too! .

Found this Gem while visiting SB. Super good broth and tasty meat. Definitely recommend it if you're a pho 🍲 lover.

Ordered vermicelli bowl and zucchini. Food was very fresh and delicious.
