Excellent Pho Ga! If you love chicken noodle soup or you're feeling under the weather, it always hits the spot for me! They never overcook the noodles and the chicken isn't dry like some other pho places. Broth is fragrant too. I have also tried the Bun Tom Nuong (BBQ Shrimp with Vermicelli Noodle). The shrimp is good and it's a decent portion for the price. The noodles are bit too firm for my liking though. The staff are really friendly and efficient. They can grow really busy on weekdays during lunch, so get here before noon to beat the rush!

The food is delicious. I ordered what I want, but the waitress told me they out of the current supply, then point me to switch a different meat, I asked her ”is it the same price with the regular order?” She said yes. However, the cashier charged me extra because of swapping item. I paid full price they charged me and plus 15% tips. Base on they lied on customer, they should worth for $0.01.

I recently had a bowl of Vietnamese pho at pho viet, and it was a delightful experience. The pho was not only tasty but also served piping hot, which I appreciated. The service was fast and efficient, making it a great choice for a quick and satisfying meal. The only minor drawback is that the place could use some updating, but the delicious pho more than compensates for it. A solid choice for a satisfying meal!

Pho was great, super large bowls with verity of beef selection, pork grild and shrimp and rice so good. Restaurant is clean and calm which makes it so pleasant. Just prices are not matching with online menu.

This place is always packed at lunchtime on weekdays. It's much quieter for dinner. They accept debit cards, no minimum. Wait time for dinner is within the first 5-10 minutes. Clean tables, doesn't stink, floors aren't sticky. The meatball pho is something I come back for but they do have dry dishes (not soupy), too, like rice noodle plates.

  • Jan-Willem Vonk

Wonderful staff good food, but the spices are missing in the food. They emulate red pepper with tomato, it looks spicy but it is not (for me).

We used to come here a lot. The quality of the food still seems good. But the quantity sure is smaller. For the large bowl they still give you a big bowl but the amount of noodles and meat is very small. Mostly soup. I kind of expect more for $16.

  • Carla Cristina S. Engalla

Found this place on way to Joy Park Fly parking lot near San Jose Airport. My dinner was SO GOOD. This will be a favorite going forward. Highly recommend.

This is a good place but not the greatest place. Came here for a business trip from Los Angeles, California and heard that this would be the place to come for Viet food. Staff was ok and the food was fine. What more can I say

I always end up coming here as its next to my work place. Usually super crowded during lunch hour but service is pretty quick. Pho is not the best in the bay area but its totally worth the price.

  • fastjacksonmin

Decent place for pho especially when dish dash is full of people. The egg noodles are not well cooked though, which is not so nice. Probably will try pho instead of noodle next time.

  • Irene “MJ” Kim

There is a lot of quantity. Especially the large size is a standard 3 servings. That's about five times the amount of Korean restaurant 'Emoi'.

  • Norman C

HUGE portions, decent meat. However, soup broth was on the sour side, and didn't enjoy it that much. Was super fast however.

  • Hương Dương

I went here for lunch, very crowded but the food came so fast and delicious, the waitress was so nice too. Will be back!

  • dan phan

  • Ashley Kenyon

My new go to take out pho. Packaging was perfect, portions were great. No complaints at all.

  • Tina Salacup
