Great, wonderful, amazing tasting Pho! We've been coming here for years and the food is always great. The spicy beef pho reminded me of tonkatsu ramen; really delicious. The only thing I didn't like on this recent visit was the way-too-loud speaker blasting country music (I'm not a fan). It was too loud, regardless of what kind of music they were playing, but the fact that it was county made it worse (for us). Please have some consideration for your patrons.
We went here for Sunday lunch because our friends recommended it. We were promptly seated and served. We got our order within 15 mins of ordering.
- pho with steak & brisket (#24): the broth was flavorful and good. The noodle cooked perfectly. I wish they gave more meat
- chicken rice plate with fried egg, egg rolls, bbq short ribs, steamed egg, meatloaf, grilled shrimp (#38): the rice portion was quite small while there were lots of proteins in a plate. The grilled shrimps were delicious! The bbq short ribs were tender and flavorful. The other items were good too.
This is how I like my bun! The pork was perfect—sliced very thin and marinated perfectly. Lots of fresh vegetables. The sauce was perfect, too—slightly vinegary and slightly fish saucey, but not too sweet.
With the cash discount, the take away serving was almost $15, but I’m still getting used to 2023 prices everywhere. It was so good that I will gladly pay that!
The shop was lightly attended and the noise level was very pleasant. Two large tvs on a sports channel and low key music on the sound system. Service was polite and quick.
My new favorite Vietnamese place. Give it a try.
Wonderful non-profit crafts thrift store. If you are a Crafter you'll love it!
NEW OWNERS SINCE NOVEMBER 2022! My bestie and I are from San Jose, land of the Vietnamese. We vouch for this bun bo hue! I did not like the pho broth, however. Back to the bun bo hue- 1 portion can feed 2 people. I always take half home. $14 if you pay cash. There’s like 5 meats in there- sliced brisket, pork bone, beef meatball, pork meatball, cha lua. NOM DROOLS Pls frequent them so I can have this home cooked style food nearby.
Stopped by here on my way to Reno from San Jose. I think the Pho and Bun Bo Hue is better than some of the overpriced Vietnamese restaurants in San Jose. My wife is pretty hardcore on Vietnamese food and she loved Bun Bo Hue. Their Vietnamese is really really good. I hardly do any reviews, but I had to do on for this restaurant. Came in and saw one kid running around like crazy cleaning up the tables, take orders and ring the cash register. Felt really bad for for the kid so I gave a little extra tips on top of what I normally tip. Also mad the second stop on my way back to San Jose from Reno. Definitely will stop here on my next trip to Reno.
The food is pretty good but I think it's just too small of a portion but the pho size is good I have eatting at this place a couple of times already. I would go there again!!!!
Best pho within 20 miles and its not even close. Perfect broth. Amazing short ribs. You can tell they use very fresh ingredients. All the other broth in the area has a funky skunk to it like they use old beef. This place is the best in the area. Ive been to them all.
This was our second time here. Wonderful food just like last time!
We ordered potstickers, a bowl of wonton pho, dac biet pho, shrimp and beef spring rolls, and a Korean rib rice plate. My daughter liked the fried potstickers that we ordered a second serving. I was told that the restaurant came under new management some five months ago. The place kept it's tidy interior and the tables felt new. We enjoyed our lunch here. Our food is carefully prepared and the server was especially helpful.
Their congee is so filling and delicious. Also recommend their smoothies since they use real fruit not a syrup.
Great food! I've always gotten the f64 and the people are very friendly. The prices are also very cheap with good portion sizes
Edit:Still the same awesome food, portion sizes and owner, I also don't believe the prices increases as well!
Love this place. I come here as much as I can. Pho is so good, egg rolls are awesome too. Owners are very nice and friendly.
An awesome experience with a family run restaurant that keeps authentic taste!
This was my first visit. The dish that I ordered was delicious! And I know this place is one of my friends favorite restaurants to go when she needs comfort food. I'd like to go back and try more dishes.
Have you ever had one of those moments when you taste or smell something, and it instantly takes you back to a moment in your past? My dinner tonight did just that. I ordered the grilled pork and egg roll over vermicelli (Bun). It took my back to a Ho Chi Mihn City, Vietnam, sitting in a small, street side restaurant with my friend. The flavor was spot on to the Bun I ordered that night. Probably the most authentic flavor I’ve had since being there back in 2016. Glad I found this place. My only complaint is that the portion was a little small for the price. But, if you’re looking for authentic Vietnamese flavor, definitely eat here. You won’t be disappointed.
