TK Noodle in San Jose

This restaurant chain has had its ups and downs through the years. Ive had good experiences and ok ones. I grew up coming to these restaurants. This one in particular, and I will always keep coming back. Its the best chow fun Ive ever had, and the #1 soup is also the best noodle soup Ive ever tried. Not many places serve lemonade soda the way they do as well. I wish they would expand down south.

Awful!! Double check your reciepts before you leave! Ordered two thai teas which were supposed to be about three dollars each, and they charged me for the PEARL thai iced tea which were five dollars each. I had to argue with the cashier there to get it changed, she said that was how they charged it until I pointed it out on the menu and argued some more. Ordered the combination chow fun and chow mein. Chow mein was severely undercooked, some noodles were still crunchy! And the chow fun was so overcooked the bottom turned into mush. Both dishes had shrimp that still had the poop sack. Unhygenic, dissapointing, and scammers!

I’m amazed how it’s cheaper to buy food from this place through door dash instead of going in. It’s usually the other way around basically charged me $8 for two soft drink

The cashier is not so friendly but I know her for many years so I know is the way she is.

Portion is smaller than before, and they left fresh mint & lemon for my usual order. In addition, they charge for water now. You kidding me? They hand you paper napkins instead from the dispenser that is usually on the table. Plus, you have to get up from your table and to the counter to get your own chili source and chopped jalapeno.A little of overpriced.

Removed all condiments and utensils, napkins, etc from the tables. Will NOT give you a complimentary glass of water, they make you PAY for bottled water. And still cash only, thats inconvenient plus their ATM machine charges a lot, so pretty shady in my opinion. Wont go back to this location anymore.

This place needs some help, a good deep cleaning and an update. Ive loved going to TK noodle for years, but I had never been to this location, well I wont be back. They dont offer the same vegetarian plates as the new TK noodle and the food my husband ordered was straight up not good. The cleanliness is lacking, its cash only and they dont even have chili oil on the table (or anything for that matter). A big nope from me. 👎

The good: very quick service, food was hot!The Not good. Ordered #8 (combination pho) Broth was greasy, no depth of flavor. No veggies/greens (fresh sprouts, basil, etc) served with it.Friend got #21 (combination chow fun). No flavor on meat, noodles clumped together and only cooked with soy sauce (dark color, salty, but no flavor either!)Would not recommend.

This is my first time in this location after so many yrs back visiting. Everything I had was all underwhelming for me. The Hu Thieu Mi was very underwhelming, little watery and flavorless. Also tied something new, no.7 on the soup menu, it is a tomato based broth which was good with the wide flat rice noodles but not good with the yellow noodles. The tendon was cooked excellent. It was good at first but after a while, I just couldnt do anymore, I think I could have used some more bean sprouts or veggies. I can only say that the portions are very huge and the prices are still good.

$15 for a bowl of pho with scarce amount of noodles and meat. Its cash only, and there is a fee to use their ATM inside. They dont even provide water anymore only bottled water for sale. I normally get tap water because I dont drink soda or other sugary drinks plus I like to leave more for a tip instead. Quality has worsened at this location.
