Ordered Bún Bò Huế at lunch time. Soup came in what felt like an instant. The broth could use a bit more sate. But it had all the right pieces including the chả sausage and blood cubes. They also happily provided some crushed fresh chili for me after I asked for ớt xay. Ill give anyone 5 stars for spicy chili.One thing Id also mention is the gà xào sả ớt is mild here.

The food was tasty, fresh clean. I didnt like the imitation crab, It has to many chemicals and GMOS same goes for farmed fish. So I gave it to my friend. She liked it.

For a pho restaurant, great service! I got a bunch of orders to go, so I can only really review the dish I got. I ordered the Lemongrass Chicken Vermicelli and it was interesting...first time seeing it with bell peppers and more curry type sauce. Very flavorful though. My boyfriends Thinly Sliced Pork Rice dish was tasty too. I am curious to how the soups taste now.During another visit, I tried the Beef Stew Soup which came with more ramen type noodles and became my new favorite dish from here.

The restaurant was clean and appealing. I got beef pho and egg rolls. The pho was really good 9/10 and the egg rolls were ok. 7/10. But the service was really good and the prices were excellent. Definately will be coming back

Disappointed in the quality of the food. I used to visit this location weekly. Today, my chicken rice plate was missing the soup, fish sauce and my Thai tea, tasted like watered down powder. No milk, or creamer.. not even a ML of sugar!😡Even the chili paste tasted wierd 🤦If I didnt live so far, I would have drove back and returned the order. Not cool.

First time trying this place since its recent Grand Opening. Simple and small menu. Prices are average for Vietnamese food. Flavor and taste is good and on par; I wouldnt say it is exceptional. Good enough to come back again if I need a quick bite. My son ordered the BBQ Chicken and egg roll vermicelli. He said the egg roll tasted okay, but did enjoy the rest of the dish. We also ordered Thai tea, Vietnamese coffee, and an Avocado shake. All these drinks came in a boba style cup, and tasted great. Not super sweet, and flavor-filled.Pro: Free parking and plenty of it; they take most major credit cards; clean and bright inside; simple menu, drinks are great; quick service; I did hear the owner/manager speak French and Vietnamese, and English very well.Cons: Only one size for most items, no large; pho came with less than average steak; very limited on the meat or beef orders; everything mainly chicken, or seafood.

One of my favorite restaurants in the area! We usually get the chicken kebab, beef kebab, and babaganush ... So yummy ... Meat is tender and flavorful. Comes with warm bread and no problem asking for more. Owner is super nice. Have never left behind any more when we eat here.

I would like to take the time to say thank you for the amazing staff at pho mama. A door dasher gave me the wrong order and they we so nice and understanding. It really made me and my fiancés night. Thanks again even though it wasn’t their fault.

Had vermicelli and pork rice plate at 10:30am on Saturday. Nobody there yet but they came out and took care of us right away. I liked the small size egg rolls in the vermicelli. They even had like slices on the water. Good restaurants like this always disappear for some reason. Maybe the bad places send someone over to eliminate them or bribe them to close. Well, Ill stand up to these bad restaurants and come back to this good one for excellent meals.

Theres Pho, then Pho Mama. The best damn Pho Ive had, period! The broth is a cut above everyone elses, the condiments are fresh & of very good quality. The few bad reviews are inexplicable, other than these poor souls dont know a Pho and/or Vietnamese cuisine. Try it out for yourself and be ready to be wowed!

The food is terrible. If you appreciate good Pho and are picky about the broth dont come here. They dont use quality ingredients in their food. The meat is the lowest quality available and the sauce masks the meat quality. Or at least attempts to. (Ordered a short ribs plate). The fried rice tasted like the scrambled eggs were were reheated and werent fresh. The pho broth was so salty and distasteful. And they only give you a few pieces of meat in the bowl and pack it in with noodles so you force yourself to eat more noodles than meat. The egg rolls were so bad too. There were super tiny and over fried in oil. Probably the smallest egg rolls i ever had at a pho restaurant and youre paying a $1 a piece when they are NOT worth it. I wont be back. There is plenty of better variety pho places in the area. We came here because it was the only pho place within a few mile radius that was open.

Delicious food! 😋 Clean restaurant with a friendly staff I was pleasantly surprised. This place is a hidden gem, since they didnt pop up on my Google when asked about pho in this area. Quick service and customizable menu items made things even better. I highly recommend this place.

Ever since moving from the South Bay Ive been looking for good Vietnamese food. Ive found it at PhoMama! My Beau loves the strawberry smoothie here and the atmosphere is great. I havent seen it too crowded and theyre quick to attend you. Definitely will come here frequently.

Dont know why they have sesame balls on the menu, but theyre really good! Vermicelli good, pho good in flavor while still feeling light. Good service, pretty efficient. Owl decor is clutch. Will definitely eat here again.

Recently moved close to Pho Mama. We were excited we had a Pho place in walking distance. Unfortunately it just doesnt compare with other pho options in Fremont and Union City. The brisket curled up in the broth and just tasted like ground beef. The meatballs didnt retain their form. The broth had no aroma. Lastly, the spring rolls are a bit overpriced. They were $9 and based on the picture they appeared to be large rolls. Unfortunately they were the same size as you get everywhere else for $5 and to top it off they werent wrapped properly so they just collapsed on their own weight.

Ordered through door dash. The order got here earlier than estimated and everything was delicious. They sent it the right way separated with all the toppings in a separate bag. Seemed a bit pricey when ordering, but the amount of food they send makes it worth it.

We really enjoy the BBQ Chicken Vermicelli and the Pho broth. I didnt care too much for the chicken in it. I guess its an american thing, I would prefer the skin be removed before it goes into my bowl. Overall, we enjoy the smaller quaint atmosphere and the service.

I came here for a casual lunch while waiting for the bart. I ordered the pho with beef broth. The broth was taste with generous amount of meat. I would try other dishes next time when I am taking the bart.

Bad attitude when I tried to pick up my ORDER!! my order was for pickup and the lady yelled at me that it was a door dash order and refused to give me my food or a refund. My food was never delivered because it was NOT a doordash order.

Came here for some Pho and the time says open at 10:30am. But when I came by the door was still locked even the open sign was on and everything on inside, even the lady was staring at me inside. Not coming back here thats just bad business.

Im currently picking up to deliver for work and an employee is in here with the mask off his nose talking to two people who have no masks at all. (During covid) Then after his conversation he went to go cook with the mask still off.
