Fresh spring rolls with peanut sauce - delicious. Beef pho - even better. Banh mi is great, too! I haven't tried a lot of other items but the service is friendly and there is always a place to sit. Parking is easy. read more

Oh Bayhill VB, I could not never pho-get you. Your P1 combination is burned in my brain like your Sriracha burns my tongue (d'oh!). On cold, rainy days there is nothing like their Pho. It is the ideal remedy to warm the body and spirit. The broth, the noodles, the meat and the garnish of cilantro, basil, sliced jalapenos and limes are a little plate of joy. I am looking forward to another hot any spicy of our Southeast Asian savoriness. Probably this week. Okay, time for some pics. read more

Bayhill Vietnamese Bistro - P1. Combination Pho (rare steak, brisket, flank, tendon, beef ball, tripe) - Vietnamese Near Me - San Bruno, California

I let my nose lead me places sometimes and this place always smelled so good!! My visit exceeded all of my expectations. I'm new to the area coming from mountain time and eastern time and this pho was one of the best bowls I've had in my life. The steak bahn mi was fresh and delicious as well, so flavorful and generous with meat, although I wish it had more veggies. It's an excellent value. The tofu spring rolls with peanut sauce were also full of flavor, and even the Thai iced tea was delicious. Their water is flavored with lemon (great plus) and I can't wait to come back and try more of this fresh delicious pho! Didn't get pictures of the entrees because we ate it so fast! If this isn't even the best Vietnamese food according to other Yelpers, I can't imagine how good other restaurants are! Service was great, and when you're done with your meal you bring your ticket to the register to pay - which is awesome if you feel like lingering a while. read more

Found this Pho spot near our hotel at Bayhill Shopping Center. Perfect for the cold rainy weather while we were there in February 2026. We sat at a booth and looked over the menu. Shrimp Rolls looked good and Rare Beef Pho. Soup was tasty and it came with a nice portion of thinly sliced rare beef. The usual bean sprouts and herbs came with each bowl of pho. read more

Placed a pickup order via Uber Eats for a Vermicelli bowl with egg rolls. Order was ready in 15 minutes. Staff was friendly and pleasant. Plenty of indoor seating, good for families. Vermicelli bowl (with egg rolls, rice vermicelli, shredded lettuce, cucumbers, pickled carrots, daikon, sprouts, peanuts, nuoc cham) was generously packed and lasted me 2 meals. Great value, look forward to ordering again :) read more

Watery broth and small noodle portions. This place isn't worth the value for what you get when you compare it to Kevin's Noodle House or other places. 2.5 rounded up to 3 just because it's a local business. The thai tea is like $6 for all ice, not worth it. They charge for hot tea. The service is slow even though this place is empty all the time. Their beef with rice is chewy and not flavorful. Their eggrolls taste like mush and nothing of quality inside. I highly doubt with all the restaurants closing this place will stay in business. They charge you like $4 more pet item then other places and like I mentioned the service is slow to non existent. Their to go portions are hella small too. read more

Yummy place! Three of us went Mom, her care taker and me today. We had a late lunch and enjoyed it very much. We started with grilled spring rolls and crispy fried spring rolls. I like the crispy fried better than the fresh spring rolls. Mom and her care taker thought the fresh spring rolls were delicious! They order a grilled beef and a grilled pork sandwiches. They thought the meat was tasty and the veggies were fresh! Very delicious!! I had grilled shrimp and rice plate. It was very good and filling. The ambiance is very comfortable and enjoyable.. I could spend an afternoon in their eating and drinking and relaxing! Nice place! read more

After suffering sticker shock at Mollie Stones ($14 for a 6" sandwich?!) I knew I could do better with a bahn mi. Walked over to Bayhill Vietnamese Bistro and got a foot-long chicken bahn mi and some shrimp spring rolls for only $6 more. Both were tasty and the serving was quick. read more

Adding this place to the list for allergy safe places. I called in to order the P3 Brisket beef pho and P6 Chicken Pho for my wife and daughter to share. When I called an asked about allergies, I can appreciate how the girl who answered the phone gave it to someone who could answer my questions about food allergies. The noodles and meat came in a bowl sturdy plastic to-go bowl that made pouring the soup easy and eating the pho easy. It tasted pretty good, not the best that I've ever had, but it was pretty good. Glad to know there's another place in the bay area that's delicious and has allergen safe options. read more

I enjoyed eating here! The ambiance inside is lovely and calming and spacious, the food is pretty typically priced for Vietnamese dining, but the portion for my vermicelli bowl was huge. I was happy surprised with how much food there was; you can't tell how deep the bowl is from my picture. I would come back here again and try the pho! Everyone inside was very nice read more

Tried Bay Hill Vietnamese Bistro recently. The pho was decently tasty--especially the rare steak, which had good flavor--but the portions were on the smaller side compared to chain places like Pho Hoa. They only offer one size for pho, and at $18.50 after tax, it's definitely pricier. You also don't get a lot of vegetables with your pho, though they did give me extra cilantro for free when I asked. Extra noodles was $4.50! They have other menu options too, including cold vermicelli, rice plates, banh mi, and drinks like Thai iced tea. The ambiance is actually pretty nice. There's a central area designed to look like a house, and it wasn't crowded at all on a Saturday evening. The waiter was friendly and even gave us hot water for no charge. One downside there was the music--it was a bit loud with heavy bass, which gave me a bit of a headache. Overall, it's an okay spot, but I think there are better values elsewhere. For similar taste and larger portions, I'd probably just stick with Pho Hoa (obviously there are better pho places out there especially in SJ). Plenty of parking since it's in a plaza. read more

Food is decent, but service is mixed. Last time we went they rushed us to sign the check and leave the restaurant before closing time.

Came to try this place after noticing it while ordering Korean Fried Chicken next door. It's in the strip mall next to 280 on San Bruno Ave. Place is huge, a little dark, and I haven't seen it being crowded ever. Do note that they are closed on Sunday which is really weird for most Asian restaurant. The food is decent but nothing special. Don't think the soup is from actual bone soup but with the price I don't expect them to. They however gives you a lot of meat for the price. I feel like I got a decent deal. Service is also good. You do have to pay at the counter. read more

This rating alone is for the shrimp banh mi, I usually get beef and chicken banh mi sandwiches from here and typically they're good like 4/5. They're not too expensive and they're a nice size. I decided to order a shrimp banh mi to try something new and received six shrimps in the sandwich. It pissed me off, $12 for 6 shrimps? Come on now, fix the shrimp to sandwich ratio and the rating would be better. Other than that being my only complaint, the service is quick and the ambiance is relaxing and nice. read more

I ordered the bún bò Huế and was pretty disappointed, the presentation looks good, but it came out lacking flavor and didn't have the depth/spice I was expecting. Service also felt a bit inattentive. Overall, the place has more of an American diner feel than an authentic Vietnamese spot. Might work if you want something familiar and mild, but I wouldn't come here for bold, traditional flavors. read more

I always pass by BVB but never really got a chance to try it out. I went in on a random Thursday afternoon at 3 pm and it was relatively empty with only a few diners. The service was average and on par with other Vietnamese restaurants. I got the P2 rare steak and it was a decent size but pricey $15.xx. The broth was a tad on the salty side but I don't think they put msg in the broth. The pho only come in one size. To pay, go up to the counter. They interior is clean and spacious with both booth seating and tables. Plenty of parking in the plaza read more

The food was incredible it was my first time trying pho. A hidden San Bruno gem ! Will be back

Pretty solid place for your banh mi or pho fix. Been coming here for years and it's always consistent. Although there is a significant difference ordering pho to-go and at the restaurant, obviously taking it home won't be as fresh. Service is fine, you pay at the front counter when you're done with the meal or go straight to the counter when ordering togo. The vibes are super chill, for any occasion honestly. Will continually come here and recommend this place. My order: Chicken Pho - Super solid, the broth is super flavorful and smooth. It will totally cure any hangover or cold because it's so comforting. Beef or BBQ Pork Banh mi - Very affordable compared to most places nowadays. Their bread is more on the soft side, which is my favorite kind. The meat is always good especially with the pickled vegetables. Can't go wrong here. Thai Tea - Definitely better than what you get at a boba shop, but it's also not the best I've ever had. read more

This might come as a complete shocker, considering how I almost never visit this complex, but I had no idea there was a pho joint here! However, I was pretty stoked to discover them on Yelp as we soured for a place to eat after hitting the driving range. In because pho seemed like the perfect way to defrost ourselves after freezing in the wind and cold, but mostly because I saw that they had Nem Nuong Cuon. Seriously - why don't more places offer this goodness?! Although, my waistline (and wallet) probably appreciates it... Now, I'm not going to lie - the first time we came here, I was a little worried when I saw only one other table occupied inside. However, after taking a look at the menu, it became pretty clear that the lack of customers probably had more to do with us being here on a Friday afternoon. While there isn't an extensive array of dishes to choose from, there's still some interesting options amongst the various appetizers, banh mi, rice plates, pho, buns, and other noodle dishes that they have to offer. -- (#A6) GRILLED PORK ROLL (Nem Nuong Cuon) - Grilled Pork, Vermicelli Noodle, Lettuce, and Rice Paper Wraps with House Special Sauce...$9.99 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bayhill-vietnamese-bistro-san-bruno-2?select=2hnk7j9912VH8czyiC5y4A) Thankfully, the one thing that I had high hopes for didn't disappoint! The slices of pork were thin yet crispy and I liked how the rolls were overflowing with vegetables (aside from the cilantro). Sadly, there are only two rolls, but at least they were fairly big. -- BUILD YOUR OWN PHO with Brisket and Tendon...$14.99 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bayhill-vietnamese-bistro-san-bruno-2?select=Vqn7n-aOlpztJyrhljbqsg) Honestly, I wish more places would do this. In terms of taste, this was pretty solid. The tendons were (mostly) tender, the brisket wasn't dried out, and the broth had a nice body to it. That said, despite the large bowl it came in, it didn't feel like there was much meat/noodles in it. -- (#C3) GRILLED CHICKEN RICE PLATE (Com Ga Nuong) Served with Fried Egg, Fresh Lettuce, Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Pickled Carrots & Daikon, and Jasmine Rice...$12.95 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bayhill-vietnamese-bistro-san-bruno-2?select=XQEdOTb1TzQhjkN62irTUg) The combination plate and their Korean short ribs sounded more unique, but I opted for something classic. Which I regret in hindsight, though, this wasn't terrible. It's just that the chicken was a little dry and could've used more seasoning, whether it be some lemongrass or five spice. -- (#N5) BEEF STEW (Bo Kho) with Rice Noodles...$16.99 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bayhill-vietnamese-bistro-san-bruno-2?select=oakybfZsZvhI184gxVZcKw) I opted to come back one last time just for this after seeing photos of it on Yelp. Sadly, this was somewhat underwhelming. The broth is decent, and the noodles were fine, but the chunks of beef were a rather lean and chewy. Overall, while the food is fine for what it is (not great, but not awful), the one issue I have is that it feels a bit light when it comes to value. Not only are the portions somewhat smaller than what you can typically get at places in SF or San Jose, the prices trend higher as well. I imagine at least part of that is driven by the lack of pho joints/competition in San Bruno, but at least their location also offers a lot of convenience (tons of both parking and seating for groups large or small). Which, to be honest, would probably be my biggest reason for coming back, though their playlist is freaking dope! read more

I would rate this as one of my favorite pho places around the area if I don't want to drive into the city or down to South Bay. Their pho is on the pricier side with one size. They do have the combo pho but other than that, they don't have a long list of pho to choose from. My boyfriend had mentioned their take out is also reasonably big. I've been here on a weekday and weekend, quickly seated at both times. I always ordered pho when I dined-in and from those experience, food came very quick. read more

Bayhill Vietnamese Bistro - Build your own Pho: choose two types of meat - Vietnamese Near Me - San Bruno, California

I've only eaten there once, and I ordered food for pickup once. Both times I ordered the Curry Chicken Soup with rice noodles. Both times the soup was DELICIOUS! For the to-go order, I only wish there was more soup. I think, next time I'll request extra soup. The server was welcoming and nice when I ate at the restaurant. The person who helped me with the to-go order was also friendly. The ambiance is very casual and spacious. The furnishings is dated. I've been going to this spot since the 90's when it was a Hobee's. It still has the same layout and the gazebo in the center. It has more of a casual cafe vibe versus a fancier VietNamese restaurant vibe. The server will leave the check at the table after you tell them you're done. There are signs on the walls to remind customers to pay at the cash register, which is located towards the back of the restaurant. Regardless of ambiance and casual service, I'd return to try the rest of the menu! read more

Been going here for last 20 plus years. Their pho soup is excellent. I usually order a large and take soup home for quick meal add in some pho noodles. I guess I don't check menu price as all the other pho restaurants charge a few dollars more. Today when I place the order the waiter pointed out that the large bowl is $7.00 additional to the regular size of $16.99 So tax and tip $30 or so large bowl pho! Sorry but you have lost my business. read more

We had early dinner here last night and first time to try this place. We has combination pho, spring rolls, pork and beef bao bun type, and seafood pho. Their serving is just one size bowl which is similar to Large size content in Westlake's Pho Huynh Hiep. Seafood focused mainly on prawns vs other seafood being main parts of an ingredients and none on artificial crab meat and calamari. Their combination was mostly on lean thin meat , not much mo meatballs and yet - rich and savory. Their bun sandwiches are a great try (1 order for 2 sandwiches). Spring rolls though is less than (4 slices) compared to 6 at Pho Huynh Hiep - this one was just a- okay. Over- all, good one to try. The place is clean. This one is pay at the counter type after eating. read more

adequate. ok for a quick meal when short on time. if i have time, would go extra 15 minutes for other choices.

Pretty convenient location with a lot of parking in its plaza. This place is super spacious but at lunch, you see usually less than 10 tables dining in.. sometimes when passing, I wonder if they are still in busienss. We went in for lunch. My sister ordered a steak pho, kids size $11.99 and I ordered a pork belly vermicelli bowl $14.99. The vermicelli bowl was humongous. In the sense that the noodles were overloadingore than 2/3 of the bowl plus a good chunk of really well seasoned port belly slices. I think the portions of the both ingredient was kinda unbalanced. The pho had really nice broth with cilantro and basil. But then the steak is absolutely too much fat. You can see in the pic that the pieces are all tangled with fat, maybe a bit too much. I will come back to this place but will try ordering a different kind of pho for the right poultry. read more

I thought this place was good and reasonably priced. It is in a large strip mall next to the Walmart corporate office. I ordered to go and gambled with the pho. They separated the soup from the noodles and accompaniments which was great. I did microwave the soup when I got home. The container was marked as microwave safe so I just used that. I liked the flavor of the soup. It's mild but still has that distinct pho taste that I like. I threw in some basil and jalapeño peppers. The noodles were of a good consistency and they give you a fair amount. I thought it could have used a tad bit more meat but it was okay. I would happily order pho again the next time I go. My husband got vermicelli grilled pork rice dish and he liked it and would get it again. He said it's hard to mess up this dish and it's generally a safe bet for him. read more

Another pho review lol I can't help it I believe this place is slightly overpriced, but can't go wrong with food. Ever. I usually get combo pho with spring rolls. In October, I went to this place 15+ times. No lies. 5x this week. What sets them apart is their broth. Not salty, not filling, and very flavorful. Pretty much the only place where I can finish all broth. Try this - after you order (mine is combo pho and pork spring rolls is my new go-to due to the fresh and crunch filling), ask for a bowl of raw onions with vinegar. Before taking bites of your pho, eat some vinegar drenched onions that topped off with sauce of your choice. Typing this as I jus finished. My sauce is lime, soy sauxe, and siracha. *chef's kiss. Final steps to try...vinegar French onions then before you eat your pho, put your sauce on it with your soup spoon, eat, chase it down with some more broth, then *chef's kiss again Enjoy! read more
