Friendly staff. Food was authentic and delicious, but pretty standard menu. Atmosphere is lacking, very basic and empty.

I dont usually eat beef ribs for lunch because of the time and cost of going to a full service restaurant. But there are times when when Im hungry for something filling. I found this Korean BBQ Rib plate at Pho Lyfe to be delicious and filling. The ribs are traditional KBBQ style and they taste great. The plate comes with a round of Cal-Rose Rice and a salad. The best part is the price ! As of this review, the plate costs $14.95. This price is very affordable compared to some of the restaurants in this area that serve KBBQ ribs. While Ill agree that the portion is not extremely large, it is enough to satisfy most diners. Good job, Pho Lyfe. Ill be back !

Ordered the P1, large combination bowl. Im a huge fan! Incredibly tasty. I never leave any leftovers, but the size of this bowl made me tap out. I also ordered the fried chicken wings with chili marinade which were also incredible. Try the spring rolls as well. Highly recommended!!

One of the best places for pho. Have visited multiple times and never disappointed.Broth is hot and flavorful. Noodles stay firm. Add-ins in the soup is delicious .Rice dishes also always well-done.Fast becoming a comfort food place for me.

This restaurant took over the old Gombei spot. Their pho is good in flavor but each dish is relatively small in portion in relation to their price.

One of the better Pho spots in Santa Clara. Lowkey vibe. Broth was great and fresh noodles were perfect. Im bookmarking this place.

Finally, a respectable Vietnamese pho place! Ive lived in Vietnam and tried out a bunch of places in silicon valley but this was the only one that matched the flavor of the real thing. Plus they allow you to come in last minute before they close. Only problem is super expensive at $15 for just a small bowl

I read the reviews for this place and thought to give it a whirl, instant regret. I thought with the bold statement Pho Lyfe that their pho would be great, not the case here. In my opinion they are not about that Pho Life. If they were their pho would be tasty and satisfying. It was not. I had the Pho ga🍗 the chicken was so tough, it was like chewing through rope. Disappointing flavor of the broth and toppings, all around weak attempt at a decent pho. Try harder, provide good quality, you literally owe that to your customers. Never coming back here.

Fresh food, good quality and great price. We ordered chicken pho and shrimp rolls. Both the dishes were great!

The food was great but the atmosphere and service was lacking. The host/waiter was not friendly and seemed annoyed to be there. Service was slow, but they had a lot of customers, so I understand. One main dish came out before our appetizer and we all waited very hungrily while 1 person was able to eat. And the atmosphere was kind of sad - somehow it was very stark lighting while also being dim. The floor was sticky and the whole place in general could use a good cleaning. My family thought it was the best tasting Pho around, but the experience wont bring us back.
