Vegan options were delicious. I ordered the spicy vegan noodle soup and my boyfriend got the vegan vermicelli. Portion sizes were huge! I really enjoyed my meal.Rating 4 stars because we weren’t really attended to after food was brought out. Wish they would’ve at least refilled our waters.

Let me preface this review by saying that their pho is solid (a bit bland but they dont use MSG supposedly) and the hot green tea was very nice. However - by principle, I have to give them a 1/5 for completely messing up my nut allergy. We explicitly asked for no nuts in the pho (easy enough) and the vermicelli (which usually comes with nuts). The vermicelli was served with nuts at the bottom of the dish. As someone with a life threatening allergy, I cant support this kind of service.Edit: Bumping my score back because the manager called me directly and apologized. The food was good, I hope their service improves for people moving forward.

Their Bun Bo Hue was good. Right amount of spiciness, a little bit oily and quite [temperature] hot. Their condensed milk ice coffee is good. Bring cash for you meal, otherwise add 3.5% fee.

I like the fact that they use metal cups instead of plastic. The server was good, just not too attending. The meat quantity is a little less than expected . The chicken pho was soft & Delicious But i would recommend #16 with extra meat.

One of the best bowls of pho Ive ever had and the broth saved my life when I was on a temporary clear liquid diet (not joking). They also do takeout/pickup. The hand made rice noodles are delicious as well.

Definitely not worth $22 (not including tip). Small portions, extremely thin pork chop. Tomato garlic rice had no flavor. Its just food coloring (please prove me wrong). Pork chops were well seasoned though.

We went here for dinner. The order consisted ofHu Tieu / Mi Tom Cua Dac Biet (Kho / Nuoc): We ordered the soup. This is the pho with seafood and pork. The seafood was delicious and the meat was tender. The broth had very good flavor and the noodles tasted good as well.Pho Ga: The chicken pho was delicious. The meat was tender and tasted exceptional. The noodles were great too.We ordered both the above entrees extra hot and the staff promptly obliged. We ordered large portions and one entree should suffice per person. Nevertheless we had to try their noodles.Mi Xao Toi Ga Nuong: This garlic noodle entree is a good one. to share. Its probably not enough for one person. It was a bit sweet to our taste but was well done and seasoned perfectly.We also tried ordering Pho ga for take out. While the taste was similar (great) the quantity did not match what we got for dine in. If you are getting take out the pho and the ingredients that go into it are packed in separate containers.Ambience: It is a decent sized establishment with lot of open spaces. They have large booths along with the usual tables and chairs. The cutlery is in a stand on every table. The service is very quick and you sever will be at your table to take your order in a couple of minutes. If you are a first time visiter youll need to request they come back again.Process: Order is taken and food served at the table, however youre required to pay your check at the counter.Quantity: Generous for pho while dine in.Parking: Very limitedTimes visited: 3

Great pho broth and appetizers in an unassuming strip mall. Friendly service. Large portions at reasonable prices. Loved all the fried appetizers. They were lightly fried so as to not hide the taste of the appetizers. Generous portion of fresh beef in the pho.

Vegetarian’s Review:Our party was vegetarian. They ran out of tofu and offered to add more vegetables to vegetable pho (broccoli, carrots, and celery) but only if we paid extra. When we asked for perhaps an egg as replacement, they said no. So we paid the same for less.Otherwise, their meat options seem fantastic.

Tried Pho Lovers for the first time.. very fast service and tasty food. My husband had the vegetarian bun and I had the grilled chicken with garlic noodles. Both were very good. I only wish they had Banh mi sandwiches! The grill chicken would be so good in a sandwich!

Pho was good, service was decent, tipping was bad. Well tipping was not that bad, it was average. My gripe is more they’ve already put the tip on your bill, but when you go and pay for it, the register asks for more tip. So if you’re not paying attention you are tipping them again. This is nothing against this restaurant, because they are not the only place that does this. Most places whether it’s a dine in restaurant, takeout, or a coffee place. They all ask for tip at the register. Some places add it to your bill and others don’t. … Please don’t add it and then ask for more.

I love how big the portions are compared to San Jose and it’s cheaper. However, for some food, you can tell it had reheated seafood due to the fact that it’s either hard or dry. Otherwise, very good food and service. Quick (unless you’re ordering Bánh Xèo) and easy.

Love their pho - probably my favorite in the area. Comes out fresh and quick - the large size is a huge portion!There is some parking right in front but it can be tricky to get a spot, so its easiest to park on the street across from it.Their servers are a hit or miss.Have a minimum requirement to pay with a credit card which can be annoying.

Such a yummy experience, with a good selection of pho and Vietnamese cuisine. The decor is perfect and a amount of space for small to large groups. I like the pho size offering, you can get small or the large. Funny but it works. I saw the rice plates that come with heart shape white rice . Surprisingly a very diverse crowd and busy. From small cluster to large family gathering. Will try the drinks next time.Second visit 2019, was awesome with the vermicelli chicken and shrimp plate. It came with chopped lettuce, cucumbers, bean sprouts and pickled carrots and radishes. Oh yes it was topped of with peanuts.

No kids menu @Pho lovers but they do give complementary juice boxes for your kids.One kid-friendly item we got was the fried rice (my 1 year old toddler loved it)it is served with a fried Egg and shrimp with wasabi cream dip.We added an extra side of grilled chicken.There Tea bar is excellent always ask for a serving of Coffee jelly in your iced Tea

This place was not bad, not great, but there was something a little off about it that wouldn’t entice me to come back. It’s a bit more expensive than the usual Vietnamese fare. The pho was pretty good and pretty flavorful. But the onion and scallion situation was really sparse. Also, the jalapeño was chopped into huge 1 inch pieces instead of being sliced which just threw me off. The imperial rolls didn’t come with cilantro/lettuce to wrap. They also gave lemon instead of lime. The fish sauce fish had this weird fish sauce ring stain above the sauce line... which made me think that the sauce was pre done a long time ago and it somehow had evaporated... or that it had been reused? The bun cha was okay, the pork was pretty good. It’s just a collection of little things that were odd to me. But the food was not bad. The parking lot is very small.

I enjoyed my meal here.Nice salad bowl which I really enjoyed. I just found the prawns to be on the small side and not deveined very well with the tails on. But its a good salad bowl with fresh herbs and very flavoursome.Nice crispy tofu. Could probably be crispier. But nice flavours and very soft in texture.Nice egg rolls. Crispy and reasonable filling.Very good place. No frills good food. Would definitely return!

I ordered the banh xeo and it was crunchy which is the number one criteria I look for in a good banh xeo haha. It was also pretty big and filling although I wouldve liked a little more mints and veggies. My friend had the shaken beef and it was delicious! Meat was very tender and flavorful and I almost regretted not getting that dish instead. Would definitely come here again the next time Im in the area.

I got takeout from this place, since I was craving Vietnamese food. The food was okay, it could have been better. But overall the service was really nice and I got my food super fast.

A little difficult to find or spot in the night . But food was great . We did a take out of the Vegetarian pho ( CoVid19 times ) and spicy noodles and both of them tasted really nice . Quantity was also good . Definitely sufficient ( more then enough ) for one person . We had to assemble our own pho at home .Food for vegetarian : definitely good and recommended with a wide variety of options and dishes .Supplemental : The place was cute and cozy and the food was nice . The owner felt warm and had nice folk Vietnamese ( or so my best guess ) music playing.Definitely recommended for vegetariansPS : dont go by the pho quantity in the attached pic . There was definitely more, I just served myself that much for first serving.

Every Pho place I go, I order the exact same thing. Beef brisket with beef broth, egg noodles, no onions and no cilantro. 90% of the Vietnamese restaurants Ive gone to have messed up my order, however, Pho Lovers was spot on. Their food was delicious and their restaurant was well kept and their taste in music was great! Not to mention their bathroom was #goals!

Food was good here but parking was quite tricky.I ordered #45 Bun Bo Hue ($13). It was good, authentic and in a large portion. The restaurant was bright and clean. It can accommodate a large group. I believe it can host 50 people. Parking was tricky since the restaurant only have about 10 parking spots. Street parking was limited.After all, this was a good pho place for a bowl of yummy authentic Vietnamese noodle.

Lots of soup and meat. Not as much noodle so may want to order an extra serving of noodle if sharing. Have to ask for small side dish for hoisin and siracha sauces.

2019-05-15 19:48:59

The pho wasnt bad at all. I dont think it wasnt the best pho I had around the area in my opinion but it was definitely one of the better ones. I believe if you pay a little more you can replace the noodles with flat noodles. The staff members were nice and service was quick. Parking space is a little limited.

2019-04-27 04:13:04

Intimate environment that only rewards you with delicious food. While the parking may be tricky the food itself is great with personable service. A gem hidden in a plaza and deserves all the costumers and more. Great balance meat and veggies

The broth was delicious! I loved the fresh flat noodles! I got the steak on the side and it was good. Meatballs in my fiancés pho was good too. Service wasnt bad. Its kind of pricey, about $10 for a bowl of pho but it was very good.

This restaurant was pretty good. The tomato garlic rice is heart-shaped but lacks flavor. The tea was pretty good, too. The spring roll was delicious and served with a warm balanced sauce.

This was my first time having Pho, and it was just perfect! I did quite a bit of research to get the most authentic Vietnamese Pho in the area, and Im definitely happy with the choice.I got the Phở Tái with the chicken broth, and asked to replace the noodles with extra bean sprouts. This turned out just amazing! There meat was just perfect, and so was the broth. Not at all salty as I thought it would be - and Im quite sensitive to salty foods.This was an online order and I also called them over the phone to request a replacement of the beef broth with chicken, and they were happy to comply. Quite friendly people.My roommate got the Pho Ga and that looked spectacular as well. Chicken was cooked just right and everything went together very well.Quite generous with the serving sizes too!

Went there with my colleagues for team lunch. The place was super busy during lunchtime. Most of us ordered pho and were pretty happy with what we got.The food was great, reasonable enough for the price. The quantity was pretty good as well.A lot of my colleagues ordered drinks and everyone was very happy with what they got. From thai tea to fresh coconut water, everything was great. The drinks not only looked admirable but also tasted pretty well! The coconut water was very fresh (they had coconut chunks in it). Our overall experience was superb, will definitely go there again with my family!

Large menu selections, big serving portions and good presentation - nice touch on the heart shaped rice, for example. These thoughtful touches do make for a more pleasant dining experience.One drawback is the limited parking space available. Therere usually spaces available in the little strip mall. But many are reserved for other places, mostly for the supermarket next to the restaurant. It feels so territorial...

First time eating at Pho Lovers and Im not sure if well be back.Whenever I try a new Vietnamese restaurant I usually try the vermicelli with any of the grilled proteins. I ordered the grilled pork, shrimp, egg roll w/ vermicelli and ice coffee. The rest of my family ordered the rice plates with grilled pork and chicken.The portions were comparable to other vietnamese restaurants but a few pieces of the pork was like jerky. Most likely it was just reheated. Overall, the meat lacked flavor and was over cooked.Its unfortunate that we were disappointed with the food.

It was ok, I got #12.I wanted #11 since I had never seen Pho with Ox Tail but they said they didnt have any ox tail left which was disappointing....My group ate indoors and the restaurant was spacious. Each party were typically seated along one wall until there are no more tables along that wall. Then they would sit people along the other wall.

One of the best Pho Ga (Chicken Pho) in south bay. I was looking for Pho without MSG and called a dozen places alluse MSG. 5 ⭐ for a great refreshing bowl Pho and a bonus ⭐ for not using MSG.

Best Pho In the bay Area! As a vegetarian I love the veggie rice plate and veggie pho. The tofu that comes with with veggie rice plate is amazing! And always splurge for the fresh noodles, it tastes great! 11/10

I ordered to go and their pho is pretty good! Nice atmosphere and good vietnamese vibe. Unfortunately I rate it 2 star because of service and staff inserted my credit card for me. And I werent able to get a receipt when I requested for one from the machine. It just showed total amt and I wasnt too sure what everything else cost.They did ask for chopsticks and water for us which was nice.

They serve nice pho with good menu options and all the extras--satisfying on a cold day.The downside is its pretty noisy in there. The dining area needs sound dampening and there are speakers blaring over certain tables. (We had to move ourselves to a different table.)

I went to try their Pho because several people raved to me about it. The Pho and the appetizers was actually good, Im giving it a low rating solely based on the SERVICE. The service was VERY BAD. I ordered the appetizer sampler platter for starters. A few minutes later we ordered 3 bowls of Pho for our main course. I thought that they would bring the apps first, but they brought everything at the same time. We barely had any room, at our table, for the food. Since we had lots of food, I needed a container to take my Pho home. The guy came by and just dropped a bowl at my table and walked away. I was wondering, How do I pour this giant bowl of Pho into this small to-go container???? I made a lame attempt and spilled 1/4 of it on the table. This was typical of the poor service we experienced throughout our time there.When I went to pay my bill, I saw that they charge you for every to-go container, even the little paper containers!!! They also charge you an extra fee for paying with a Credit Card.

Not very welcoming. I had a rough week and decided to treat myself to someplace new for dinner. When I arrived, it was 30 before closing, and I was immediately told that I had 10 minutes to eat at the entryway. The server, who appeared to be the owner, took my order, and dumped my order on the table without offering anything or asking. In my case, I needed a fork, and like my pho with the chili and Sriracha that wasnt placed on the table. At the end of my meal he took my payment and asked how my meal was. I informed him that the service could have been better and he laughed it off and ignored me as he pushed the pay device forward for me to just pay and leave. Wont be coming back.

Its my go to place for a warm pho after OT at office. Always loved the pho here, very authentic, just like the one I had in Vietnam. Tried the egg pudding tonight, and its surprisingly good! I like the texture and the strong caramel taste, the shaved ice by the side has vietnamese coffee in it. Such a nice combo.

It doesnt seem like an authentic Vietnamese place. I had high hope since they share the name with a good restaurant in SoCal. Their chicken noodle soup is sooo bad. The meat was so dry that I could not even finish eating. They also charge extra for everything

Review №56

2023-01-15 02:30:42

First time eating today. We were enjoying the Bun bo hue and my wife eating Pho Ga then my wife show me a piece of plastic clip of wrapped with the noodles. Imagine half way through the meal and you find this in your food. Taste wise is good on the broth but chicken meat is overcooked. I dont think I come back to eat.

07/08/2023- This is still the best pho place. Veggie pho still tastes the same.Very good place for vegetarian pho. We have tried three places near santa Clara, so far this is the best.This place has very less parking, during peak times well have to street park.

The food is really good.Visited for the first time today. Ordered spring rolls and special pho. The service was fast and the food came really quick. The spring rolls were simply the best Ive had at any Vietnamese place. The pho was very good too. Never had ox tails with pho before and it was pretty good. Will come back and try their other dishes.

2022-09-05 03:32:31

This used to be my Vietnamese go to place and their vegetarian options are legit. They used to be sooo friendly before pandemic and I used to come once every week and get to know the kids and nephews/nieces who used to work there as a family business.Sine pandemic, the arrive and quality have consistently going down, be it done-in or to-go. The last time I ordered the garlic noodles and the noodle was super overcooked and the fried tofu was tasteless and the service was very meh..... Everyone, including the owners, had pouty face on ... It wasnt pleasant anymore.Not going back because it just wasnt the same and the experience isnt worth the time and money.

Review №66

2022-09-03 19:17:28

The food used to be good before the pandemic, but its lower quality now. Weve tried several times in the last year and every time its just not worth it. Plus the last time we went, the passive-aggressive manager kicked us out at 8:35 (5 after the posted closing)! We were nearly finished with dinner anyway but that was the last straw. Not going back.

Review №68

2022-08-03 20:56:22

Decent pho, but meat quality isn’t great. The spring roll could be improved with better sauce that’s not watered down. What would’ve been a pleasant lunch was ruined by bad attitude of the hispanic man who took the order and served our food. Would NOT go back as there’s other places to spend my money.

Been here a couple of times but the food is great, always!! Its like my go to restaurants. The taste is great and thankfully they have yummy vegan pho. Their veggies are fresh and broth is so tasty, like how?!?Love it, everything the service, food, food portions.Only con is it closes 8:30 nad its like sharp 8:30. they will close so ones gotta hurry gulp the food and leave. :p

Usually ok, but a few times they gave me bad meat (it was freaking green) and then tried to pretend its normal. Listen Phở Lovers, Ive been eating pho for a long time, I know when Ive gotten bad meat.

Review №73

2021-12-14 00:22:00

Vegetarian options are tasty. I love their vermicelli noodle dish (veggie bun) but their veggie pho is also good. I dont really eat out unless Im traveling, but this is one place I visit repeatedly. Theyre also really fast if you place a takeout order online/over the phone. One downside is there arent many parking spots in the lot right outside the restaurant.

Review №74

2022-03-08 17:10:11

Food is well prepared but slightly pricier than other South Bay places. The pho broth is very light and homey. I didnt find the fresh rice noodles to be my preference as they are very soft.

Review №75

2022-05-08 21:59:45

I ordered a vermicelli bowl & it arrived right away. The pork was not greasy & was very tender. There were only a couple of shrimps, but that was fine. It was a heart meal. The wait staff is friendly.

Pho tasted watered down. There isnt a big difference in price between small and large almost as if they want you to pay 15 dollars bowl. They charge you an extra 3.5% for merchant fees. Who does that? Tip will be 11.5%. Not coming here again.

This is my local go-to Pho place in Sunnyvale. I prefer the toppings and broth here to all the other local options. The food comes fast and the portions are generous.Parking can be hard to find. There arent enough parking spots in the plaza for all the businesses and most of them are reserved for the Mexican grocery store next door anyway.

Best pho in the area. The people complaining about getting kicked out at closing have obviously never worked in a restaurant. They should only do to go orders starting at 8, but everyone should also be respectful adults and not expect to stay past closing. It’s very rude.

Nice, reasonably priced Vietnamese food. The Bun Bo Hue is pretty good but a little too sweet for me. The Pho is wonderful and the portions are great. You can add extra noodles but for me the standard bowl was enough. They take card but cash is preferred. The service is quite prompt the times I went there as well.

Great tasting food, best Ive had in a while. Broth may be a bit strong for some folks but if u like something with a richer taste, this is definitely the place.Also Im a big pho eater and the large portion was a good hearty size.

Pho lovers was AMAZING! It has the best chicken pho in the world. I would also recommend the the coconut sweet rice. The whole family loved it. It is the best place to go to for pho. So if you are ever in Sunnyvale go to Pho lovers it is the best.

Okay pho and HORRIBLE service. I live nearby and came to this place often. Today, I came in around 8 and was asked to pay right before closing which is fine and Im almost done with my meal. However, they came at exactly 8:30 to ask me to leave. I had to rush the rest of the it. I have never experienced this at a restaurant where they wont let you stay a minute after closing time.I paid before which means I tipped just to get asked to leave.WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.

What a great find. Came here on a recommendation, and very glad for it. Looks like a little hole in the wall, surprisingly nice and clean inside. The foods is the best part; we all loved our Pho. The broth is one of the best weve had, both vermicelli and the thick noodles are just right, soup is pipping hot, beef is tender and savory. Overall a great experience.

Really GOOD pho in a kinda sketchy area in Sunnyvale, however, the restaurant is very clean with modern furniture and very nice painting on the walls and a very nice couple that own it and another location in Menlo Park (I personally havent been there). Went there for dinner on a cold rainy night and was definitely pleasantly surprised on how good the pho was!!!😁👍🏻 The little strip mall of a few businesses has a small parking lot and it is pretty dark at night. Its a hole in the wall, but definitely worth going there for some really good pho!!! Went back several times after discovering it the first time!!! Highly recommended!!!🤙🏻

Very disappointed in the service today. The place closes at 8:30, and not even a minute after the closing time we were given to-go boxes for a soup that we trying to finish, and this is after we had already expressed that we intend to atleast finish the pho and pack up the rest as soon as we can. No one appreciates effectively being pushed out like this. We had arrived at around 8:15 and had they told us that they are so strict about getting everyone out of the place at exactly 8:30, we could have dined elsewhere instead of wolfing down our food and still being made to feel like we need to rush out asap. All in all a disappointing experience when it comes to service.

I got a vegetarian noodle soup from this place and it was epic. Since lockdown I could not have authentic noodle soup and I made it a point to get it this week. The staff was extremely friendly and they helped me understand the entire process of how to really pour the broth into a bowl and then add veggies to it. The owners were really kind to also explain which option should I prefer being a vegetarian. The Vietnamese coffee was amazing and it tasted very authentic even though Ive never been to Vietnam but I can tell that it tasted really good. Just one serving of this vegetarian noodle soup its quite heavy and fills you up really fast. I definitely recommend this place and Ill also try it again at some point.

Very tasty Pho. Went here with a group of people from work and we all enjoyed our food. The beef loin Pho was very tasty, but I wouldnt suggest the large size unless youre REALLY hungry, the bowl was the size of my head! I ate more than my fair share of the egg rolls because they were that good.Parking is very sparse, so plan on parking on the street, but its worth it.

This is the best place for pandemic comfort pho! Ive gotten take out here countless times this year and am always super happy with the food. Ive ordered pho thai each time because its so good, the broth is flavorful & soothing and the ingredients are fresh. They include a nice big stem of basil which is my favorite part. The portion sizes are generous and the folks who work there are always very nice!

I had a Sunday afternoon Pho here. Good sized quantities. On the taste front, Id say it is in the low-mid quality. I also ordered a steamed shrimp/pork spring roll in rice paper. While it was tasty, I found a long human hair in between the rice noodles inside the spring roll. Most likely fell in during preparation. Also restaurant refuses to process credit card transactions if bill comes to less than $14. Server made me order an overpriced lemonade (US$ 3.50) which she topped up with tap water to bring my bill to over the $14. When I didnt tip (due to the bad service, human hair in food, overpriced tap water lemonade) she sniggered at me as if I was being unreasonable. I would not return to this place nor recommend it.

This is a great quality-money restaurant. Do not expect fancy menu or the best taste ever of your life. But for the price (a affordable price between 8 to 12) you get plenty and good meal. I usually ask for special lover soup, a huge soup with slices of beef, beef ball and other things, it is very delicious. Be aware that the regular soup size is really huge.

Excellent: food quality, service, decor, easy access to napkins (because Pho can be messy). The broth had the delicious density from bones. My grandson, 4, loved the meatballs. Blue sky with clouds on the ceiling and a pastoral on one wall. Looks like its family run.

I used to love coming to this place for pho. The pho is delicious and the best in town. But today the owner was very rude to my family and I because we didn’t realize they closed in 30 mins. Instead of kindly telling us we could only place to-go orders, the owner instead threw menus on the nearest table and told us to hurry and pick something. Service is everything and I will never come to Pho Lovers for pho again.

The ambiance is super chill too, and pretty well decorated. Even though its always super crowded Ive never had to wait more than 5 minutes for a table. For the pho I always get chicken with beef broth - its delicious. Definitely recommend.

They have tasty consistant broth. Plenty of flavor and a good amount of different protein options. The parking here is difficult, but if you can carpool then it is a great spot for a bowl of pho. The restaurant can get uncomfortable during peak hours because of the dense seating and lack of AC.

Of the several local pho places nearby, Pho Lovers is the best one Ive been to so far.The food is always fresh and prepared quickly; the staff is attentive and polite; and the place itself is bright, clean, and is kept at a comfortable temperature.A bit annoying that they recently raised the minimum card charge from $10 to $15, but otherwise a solid place for good Vietnamese food.

This place is solid place to get Pho. Number 12 (pho bowl with a little of everything) with fresh noodles (totally worth the extra dollar) and a Vietnamese coffee is my favorite order. Not only are the fresh noodles delightfully soft, they hold just enough of the broth to complement each bite. A little bit of everything lets you enjoy the various bits and pieces that make Pho that enjoyable dish of every weather. The Vietnamese coffee is just the right finish, strong and sweet, leaving a happy boost of caffeine and sugar that rounds off your meal. Fantastic.

One of the best pho in the south bay. Service is so fast. Shop was about 70%full but food came out in about 2 min. Impressed!Too bad theres a minimum spend of $15 for credit card use - bit inconvenient. Also noodle is stuck together too much. But the amazing broth makes up for it!

Great authentic and oriental Vietnamese joint.It really feels like a local place in Hanoi or somewhere, with many Asian regular customers which arrive every time and fill the restaurant.

I absolutely love this place!! I have always had a positive experience here and the service is good.I absolutely love their pho. I wish I could say I have tried other dishes, but I always get the pho-steak or chicken. It doesnt take long for the food to come once ordered which is great.One time I came here, I was sick-not feeling great, verging on miserable and hoping to clear my sinuses a little. The staff was so attentive. I ordered tea and water, and after a few minutes someone other than my server noticed me coughing and got my drinks for me faster. I really appreciated it. After eating my spiced pho, I felt much better and my server recognized me the next time.I will continue coming here as often as I can. I highly recommend them!One side note-when youre ready to pay, go to the register. They will have your check ready. Also, they only accept one credit card per bill, so plan accordingly. :)

Enjoyed a large bowl of Pho Thai. Tender steak, upgraded to fresh wide rice noodles (which took flavor on well, and were tender to eat), and the full plate of fixings (bean sprouts, Thai basil, jalapenos and like) made a perfect pho.The Vietnamese style coffee is also worth the trip...sometimes I got only for the coffee.Parking can be a challenge, as there is an excellent neighborhood grocer next door.

Really happy to have a decent Asian food place nearby open on weekends! Our friend recommended this place so we decided to try it out. First, the service was very nice. We were immediately greeted and seated. The decor is also very nice and I liked the music playing in the background.The food were good too. I got chicken garlic noodle since garlic noodle was recommended on yelp. The chicken steak was nice, but I wish it came with more vegetables than 2 leaves of lettuce. It seems like something Americans would get but didnt feel Asian to me. My husband got a large pho, and the meat seems pretty fresh, which is pretty hard to find at a pho place, so we were happy about that. My husband says he likes the pho here better than the one on Murphy, so we will definitely be back and I will be getting the pho next time. My husband complained that the Thai tea did not have much tea flavor and had too much ice, so we probably wont get it again.I hope to see more decent Asian places open up nearby that are open on weekends!

Flavourful Pho. Big potion size. Friendly servers. Quick service. A lot of options on the menu. The only downside is, very limited parking space. The parking lot has all of the space reserved by 3 stores in that area (including Pho Lovers). They just have 5-6 parking spots reserved for Pho Lovers customers. But dont be disheartened, you can do street parking around that area.

One of my favorite go-to pho spots! I really enjoy how they do their broths it is just right in my opinion!Service is quick and ingredients are fresh!I typically order the chicken pho, but when Im in the mood for meat I go for the Pho Lovers! For those not looking for meat, I definitely recommend the seafood pho and you wont be disappointed!If youre feeling hungry and want a bit more in your pho go for the oxtail addition!Great spot!Parking can be tough from time to time but folks are quick to eat and parking usually frees up. Also note there is parking across the street and there are typically spots there as well!

This place is definitely one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in the area. Their Pho broth is among the most flavorful, and their Bún (which I love) is so delicious. When my wife and I come here we often get the Banh Xeo. Its rare to find a spot that does Banh Xeo right but Pho Lovers has absolutely mastered it! The only bummer is parking but that hardly takes away from the experience!

Will not come here again. 14 dollars for a large pho combination and ox tail. ox tail had almost no meat and just the bone. Pho is standard and nothing spectacular. Definitely not worth the money and they charge tax of 18 percent for a party of 6 or more with bad service. What real pho places charges that? I can go to a pho down the street for 10 dollars large pho combo with better service and pho that taste better.

What a pleasant surprise-discovery this place was. Was hungrily desperate for vegetarian pho nearby and hit this place with a preliminary look at ratings. There neighborhood is a little shade, especially on a Sunday night, but my spirits lifted the moment I stepped in. The warm smell of non-greasy food without a trace of the typical East Asian cooking-meat odors was the first warm welcome to a vegetarian. The place is tastefully done up, in bright colors profiles, with plenty of inspiration from the East Asian décor style. The wait staff have trouble with English, but its not than made up for, by their friendliness. The vegetarian pho, spring rolls and vermicelli were all delectable with most points for the vermicelli (or versimilli, as our adorable wait staff mispronounced out 😊). The veggie meat is deep-fried tofu and how can one go wrong with fried anything? The vegetables are all fresh. The spring rolls are presented beautifully!Also, if you, like me, like the little things, their store of cutlery on the table (soup spoons, chop sticks) and condiments, are laudable: functional and kinda cute.You mustve figured out by now, but I doubt this may not be your place if youre looking for authentic cuisine. Not necessarily in a bad way, but Im tempted to think the food here has been globalized to cater to a wider audience.

Beef salad. There menu is very good just like the one in east San Jose I forgot which pho place but the flavor is very similar. Parking is hard but you can park across the plaza by the school or park a little further and walk. Anyways their food is delicious the pork chop is not dry nor the grilled pork chop. As an alternative you can ask for salads instead of rice. #ketolife

Authentic vietnamese food that you can find anywhere. You might find some restaurants offering vietnamese + thai fusion, but this one is not like that! Perfect vietnamese food! I cannot comment on non veg but the veg bowls were really good! One real good advice would be to order just 2 bowls if three people are doing. They are really heavy!!! Reasonable prices too. The tofu spring roll which I had as an appetizer was good but not the best I have ever had!

Delicious and reasonably priced food. Parking spots are limited and they have designated signs. But there are a few more undesignated spots on the other side of the street.

Smallest portion of beef Ive ever seen, bo vien is a chewy mess, and this is the first Asian place Ive been to that charges for tea. My waitress didnt even speak Vietnamese! One of the worst, least authentic places Ive ever been to. I always tell people to stick to east San Jose for Viet food but I sure fooled myself this time around.

Pretty decent pho place. Service is on point and pho or what you expect. There are some interesting dishes to try that I will get next time I come here such as the crepe and garlic noodles. I got the veggie pho which is solid for vegetarians or ppl who are looking for a healthy option. I also tried the traditional pho which was also great. Noodles could be chewyer though.

Love this place, our favorite local pho restaurant, employees are very nice and food is delicious and comes fast. Love the pho with fresh noodles the best, other noodles are great too, bun is very good as well.

Crowded at lunch time. The parking is a bit dicey, as the Mexican store next door is a bit of a pain. The food is excellent. Large, but healthy portions.

Correct price, giant portions. Service was quick during lunchtime. We could reserve a table for 12 by just calling 30 minutes ahead.

Amazing food, sometimes theres a wait. Very crowded, bit noisy. After 1pm they typically run out of some plates, so make sure to come early.

Pretty tasty pho place mostly lunchtimed by the nearby businesses.Yeah, theyve got a veggie thing or two. Think theres a kid thing on there somewhere, too. The sauce that comes with the veggie egg rolls is damn tasty.

Can’t believe how cheap these people are. Pay outrageous prices and they can’t even give you a bottle of Sriracha. Had to keep asking of a small little bowl.

Solid beef pho. Its nice that they have fresh flat noodles as an alternative (but its additional 75 cents). Also tried their nem nuong rolls - delicious but not sure its worth at $3 a roll.

You can never go wrong with a grilled pork rice plate from this place. Whenever I cant take my low carb dieting anymore, I come here for rice and a delicious salted plum soda drink.

Not bad for lunch but tough to find parking. Oxtail in beef noodle soup. But #40 is a good light lunch with grill pork/shrimp in noodle salad

Thai iced tea is good, lots of selection on rice plate and pho. Service is very good. Gets pretty crowded during lunch time - still worth it.

One of the more reasonably priced pho restaurants in the area. Broth is flavorful and there usually isnt a wait for a table.

They need to update their menu!!! Food was ok, but a small bowl is like $10.50. They overpriced the food. Would never come back here.
