    I tried BBH Noodle awhile ago and thought it was pretty pricey for Pho. Good, but pricey. Nowadays, that's the standard pricing at other restaurants. Today, I revisited them while waiting for my mom's takeout from next door to be ready. The service was bad. I walked in and a lone lady was sitting at the back table talking on the phone. After seating myself done and waited a few minutes with nobody to greet me or bring me a menu. I proceeded to go to the kitchen to see if somebody would help me. As I saw somebody, she spoke in Vietnamese, and a man came out to help me but was surprised that he had to come out as he saw the woman just sitting there. I understand not to expect good service at these types of restaurants, but at least seat your customers and give them a menu and water. I only got the water after she somewhat took my order. Bun Bo Hue (Spicy): Beef and pork slices, ham, tendon, pork blood (4/5). I was surprised that they did not include the usual shrimp paste and chili oil. But, for me it was already a good heat level for me. Best of luck to them.

    Bun Bo Hue (Spicy Beef Noodle Soup)
    Maryanne W.

    We were in the area and were thinking about revisiting a noodle place in Milpitas we had tried years ago, but couldn't remember the name nor the location so we saw this little as we drove by and decided to give it a try. We got there around 2pm on Saturday and it was pretty empty. We ordered Bun Bo Hue and an appetizer. We couldn't decide if we want Goi Cuon or the papaya salad so we asked the server (I think he is the owner?) which one was better. One would expect he would suggest the more expensive salad but he actual recommended the cheaper rolls. Extra point there! Happy to see they offer Bun Bo Hue as we love the spicy noodles. We have tried many bun no hue places in the Bay Area, including the famous Bun Bo Hue A nam in San Jose. Some places tend to make it too sweet. The Bun Bo Hue here was HUGE and flavorful. It was spicy but we like it hot so we fully used the toasted pepper chili sauce on the table. The lemongrass flavor was intense and we love it. The Goi Cuon was the biggest I have seen. They are very thoughtful that they didn't put the crushed peanuts in the dipping sauce like other places, but offer it on the side... for people with allergies I think-very considerate . There wasn't anything to write home about regarding the taste of the rolls. They were fresh and crunchy as expected for goi Cuon. Part of the skin was a little hard but overall they were good for the price. The place was clean and tables arranged neatly. The service was good and the boss (I think) was very friendly. The menu offerings were limited but I don't mind. Overall it was a 3.65 star experience (so round it up to 4). I wouldn't mind coming back if I am in the area...

    7. Pho (Combination beef noodle)
    Gene D.

    Another week, another time to try a pho place. I appeared at what seemed to be a small family hosted joint? I ordered a usual beef pho, and taste wise it's okay, I just have some issues. Some of the beef is rubbery to the point where it's not possible to chew it. The service needs some work, even with a handful of people, a lot of other customers were waiting longer than expected. You don't need to come here, you aren't missing anything

    Spicy Beef Noodle (Bún Bò Huế)

    Friendly staff. Family owned. The bun bo hue is definitely proper. Nice chili oil (sate) accompanying the bun bo hue. Plenty of side herbs which is a plus. The portion is also huge for $18.5. If you want to satisfy your spicy noodle soup need you gotta come here

    This is a solid Vietnamese restaurant in Milpitas if you're craving Bun Bo Hue or Hu Tieu Nam Vang. The portions and quality is very good. They have a variety of other dishes too like pho and rice plates, but I haven't tried it personally. Food comes out quickly. Would recommend.

    The service is absolutely fantastic, and the food is a delightful treat! You get a generous serving of noodles and meat that really hits the spot. However, be warned--the Vietnamese coffee packs a powerful punch!

    BBH noodles

    Good rice dish, noodle dish with tomato, noodle dish with grill pork. All very good food every time

    Chili with the generic sriracha in the back

    It's been YEARS since I've stopped by and had some BBH Noodle. The menu sure has chopped down in size but the simplicity is just enough to keep the customers coming back for more. The menu includes a few appetizers, 3 types of noodle soup, vermicelli bowls, rice offerings, & a long list of drinks. The seating capacity is a little over 40 patrons which is a bit hard to believe but I guess they make magic happen if/when it's needed. Lunch consisted of: *BUN BO HUE- spicy beef noodle soup *PHO BO VIEN- pho w/ beef balls *HU TIEU DAI THAP CAM- combination noodle soup with chewy clear noodles *SODA CHANH- Vietnamese soda lemonade Food: For starters, just like the numerous pho/noodle houses located in the Bay Area, the sriracha shortage is REAL!! You won't find the infamous red sauce with it's green twisty cap here. They do have fish sauce, hoisin, chili, & a generic form of sriracha placed table side. I liked how the plates of veggies provided are the traditional herbs and veggies typically found with each dish- the employees didn't just pile on a bunch of generic veggies for everyone to share. The noodles were good. Pho was good and the nephew like the oversized beef balls provided. BBH noodles definitely had the iconic spicy factor required in its broth, unfortunately there wasn't much else beyond that. Mam rouc [fermented shrimp paste] is most definitely needed to offset the spicy but bland flavors of the soup. Combination chewy noodles was surprisingly a lot more enjoyed that I anticipated. The toppings and protein provided in each bowl was plentiful but I would have liked a bit more when it came down to noodle amounts. 3.5 stars overall. I wouldn't mind coming back but it wouldn't be something I'd go outta my way for.

    I haven't visited this spot in more than 8 years until today. There's always new ownership and restaurant name changes on this block. Nothing fancy and not huge, but they definitely have enough tables and chairs inside. Same old. Senior folks work here and there's always people chatting inside lounging around. Grab a menu at the front display shelf area at entrance doors. It's kind of hard to notice they stack menus there, in case you're wondering where the menu is. Not many dine-in customers during lunchtime (Thursday). TV is on with Vietnamese programs. Place is a bit outdated compared to other Vietnamese restaurants in Milpitas. More quiet these days than usual. Credit cards accepted. Pay at front counter after dining inside. I sat at corner table 1 and had the Bun Rieu Crab Cake Meat Pate Tomato Paste Noodle Soup with a glass of water. True, selections are a bit pricier compared to other similar places. Still delicious, especially the unique meat pate. They're actually different in taste compared to others. Good tasting flavorful meat pate is probably handmade. Very good. Huge portion sizes inside bowl. Service is slow, but ok. Mixed vibes inside. 1-2 staffs (males) are working. Don't expect excitement. Not too bright interior lighting. Low key casual dining mood. They can get very busy taking orders over the phone. The place was much better with more servers in past years. They are definitely trying to survive. Staffs are growing older. Menu is simple. Old places still have potential. This is one of those places that should get repainted or upgraded to compete with others. Sticky wet tables? Utensils looked old. Times have changed, so the dining mood needs to catch up with modern businesses. It felt like business is slower and customer base is shrinking, but you can still find delicious selections here. Very mixed interior vibes here. Food is good.

    Bun Bo Hue (Spicy Beef Noodle Soup)
    Kimmy P.

    Came here on a weeknight for dinner because I really wanted soup. I tried the BBH and it was mid for me since I'm huge on savory and super spicy for BBH. If you don't like too much heat, then this is probably a good broth-spice level for you. Otherwise, it was not spicy for me and the chili oil they had wasn't spicy for me either. I did try their eggrolls, which was great but I forgot to snap a picture of it. Glad there's a Vietnamese joint in Milpitas.

    #7 Beef Pho
    Bernadette G.

    This place has been in this plaza for a few years now and this was the first time I tried it. I tend to stay loyal to my favorite pho place. I should have tried this sooner! The beef broth is so good. It is clearly not heavy on the MSG just the slow cooked flavor of beef broth. The soup was really lovely. There was also a lot of meat. The only thing I was disappointed with was the lack of tripe and tendon which is what I love in my pho. I will definitely try this place again, I like that the menu is small meaning they stick to a few specialty items.

    Came here for my first time today and was pleasantly surprised at how fantastic everything was. Our…read moregroup went with the premium AYCE plan, which I would highly recommend. The meat selection and quality was wonderful all across, which I wouldn't say lightly, especially for an AYCE BBQ spot. I often find at other restaurants there are a few meat choices where the meat is too lean/chewy, etc. but I was thoroughly impressed at how flavorful, tender, and well balanced all the meat cuts were. (We tried every beef dish.) Our favorites were the Teres major steak, beef belly and brisket, and the garlic marinated kalbi. Besides the meat, the side dishes and sauces were also great! I'd recommend getting the seaweed soup as a palate cleanser for the end of your meal and trying all of their sauces. The staff were extremely attentive and friendly, and we also met the owner who gave us a friendly welcome. Will definitely be coming back--one of the best AYCE experiences I've had in the bay area recently.

    I am so glad I returned to Meat Time to give it another try, though it took me too long to do so (3…read moreyears!). I don't know when Meat Time started offering AYCE options besides a la carte, but with their new pricing and portions, it is incredibly good value for phenomenal meat quality and options. This feels like a legitimate Japanese yakiniku experience. My husband commented that the meat tastes like it came from a butcher and not from Costco (no offense to Costco). I already thought Meat Time offered good quality meat previously, but their service and pricing needed a revamp when I first tried it years ago and I'm glad to see the changes. We recently came here for a weeknight dinner and walked in with no problems. It was actually fairly empty, so I'm curious how the crowds are during peak times. Besides a la carte, they have two AYCE tiers, $54 base and $72 premium. I think both are good options. It just depends on what kind of meat you're feeling like eating, and yes, they do have Japanese wagyu. They have a good selection of meats as well as some seafood and a list of rotating specials of meats and kitchen items. They also have a nice selection of appetizers and sides as well as an impressive sauce selection. Our server let us try all of them and we thought all of them were delicious in their own way, but I would agree that the golden egg yolk and green onion sauces, which are their most popular ones, stood out. I also enjoyed the house yakiniku sauce provided at the table. We tried the premium AYCE on our visit and honestly, we thought everything we tried was amazing. One of the current specials is the zabuton meat, and that actually was our favorite of the night, though I think it's hard to go wrong with any of the meats. Happy hour is all day from Monday through Thursday, late evening from Friday through Sunday. They also have a free membership you can sign up for that gets you $5 off for every $100 you spend. The servers were friendly and attentive during our visit. Food was excellent. I have no complaints. We both walked away from our meal very satisfied and definitely will come back. Meat Time easily will be our go-to restaurant for Japanese yakiniku, and I highly recommend it!

Skewers are decently priced in comparison to the other skewer locations in the city. Parking is readily available in the plaza. Happy hour is from 4:00 pm to 11:00 pm everyday. Some dishes are on a discount. Ordering is mainly done via QR code. All skewers were covered in the same seasoning. Overall tasty but can be boring after a couple of skewers. There are some additional seasonings on each table to change things up a little. The mushroom skewers were plain, so the seasoning really stood out to be crunchier due to the salt. Fishball skewers were soft. Most of the flavor came from the seasoning itself. The lamb and beef skewers were great. The meat textures were different and difference in meat taste was noticeable. Staff was friendly and will try to converse in Mandarin first. They can also speak English, so everything went fine regardless. During my time here, most people came to pick up their takeout instead of eating in the store. Will be back to get my fix on skewers due to its appropriate pricing in comparison to other places.

The location that we went to is located next to Maggiano's Little Italy in Santana Row on Olin Ave. There is a free 2 hour parking structure across of the restaurant where my boyfriend and I parked at. We came during their Lunch Specials (until 4pm) and Happy Hour (from 3-5:30pm) which worked perfectly as we wanted something smaller in portion compared to the dinner portions. We started off with drinks. I got their Pig Ol' Bitties Blonde Ale, and my boyfriend got their Friday Beer & Shot special of This Little Piggy Went to [Mark]et with a 16 oz Dirty Little Pig IPA and a shot of Benchmark whiskey. My fault for having him get a whiskey shot on an empty stomach, though HAHA. He did like how smooth the whiskey was at least! We shared a 2-meat BBQ Lunch Combo Plate, and honestly, we should have gotten 3 meats because of how tender and delicious everything was! We got their Tri Tip and Sliced Brisket with their Garlic Mash and server recommended Sweet Potato Tots. Ahhh, everything was so good! Aside from the tender, flavorful meats, the two sides, especially the garlic mash, were sooooo good. We both loved everything! It was definitely a great choice coming during lunch as we were quite full after ordering one of their happy hour shareables of Chips & Queso (kind of pricey even for happy hour in my opinion for chips and cheese). Honestly wished we got their Chili Cheese Fries or their other fries which were the same price than just chips and dip LOL. But it was a good hold over food with us drinking a bit (at least for me). Shoutout to the only server who was working on a late Friday afternoon as she was doing her best to accommodate everyone + trying to clean up the previous tables. It was kind of sad seeing that the other workers didn't help bus the tables in my opinion. Overall, a great place to watch sports and have some good whiskey as this restaurant is known for their whiskey selections! The lunch BBQ exceeded our expectations, and we would definitely come back for another lunch special meal but probably with 3 meats this time!
