Jeff N.

Great atmosphere and wonderful friendly service. We were hungry after running some errands in South Sacramento area and the wife wanted some Vietnamese food. This place was a great choice! Clean restaurant except the floors are a bit sticky. But other than the floors the interior is really nice and well done. Definitely check out Co Ba Saigon!

All the dishes were on point and authentic. Tony was also very helpful and checked on us often. Decoration reminded me of Vietnam. Will come back.

Beef rib pho
Stephanie S.

The beef rip pho was delicious and huge!! Waitstaff was very friendly and took great care of us. The spring rolls and Thai tea were yummy. The only thing I would point out is that all five water cups that were at our table smelled very strongly of bleach so we didn't drink any water. Not sure if it just happened to be our cups, but it was very late in the day and we were super hungry so we just ordered different drinks. Pho was flavorful so will definitely coming back to eat here again.

Seafood with Noodles
Jennifer N.

FOOD - Seafood With Rice or Egg Noodle: I ordered mine with both types of noodles, no veggies, and dry. It came with fish balls, squid, shrimp, and tobiko fishball. I liked the addition of tobiko fishballs. The flavor was good but the broth could have used more flavor. 3.5/5 SERVICE: I came with my family and parents. Our server was friendly and engaged with my kids. He was very accommodating to all of our asks and needs. Service was great except my mom didn't get her food until everyone else was almost done with theirs. We had to ask about her order as it was coming out. Then she felt rushed because she didn't want us to wait on her. 3/5 FINAL THOUGHTS: I would come back and try other items. Hopefully they don't forget any of our orders.

The customer service was Excellent! Our server Tony made sure we had everything and continued to come check on us. The Best part was the food was so delicious! Flavor and great presentation!

Bun Rieu & Sweet Sour Catfish soup
Toby N.

Not bad at all...this location/spot has changed ownerships a few times so I was reluctant to come back but much to my dismay they have a variety of dishes I really like. After reading some of the latest reviews and I had a craving for Bun Rieu We ventured back to try Pho Co Ba Dishes we ordered: Canh chua/Sweet Sour soup with cat fish Camalized Pork belly Bun Rieu All were delicious and tasty Service was a bit chaotic but not enough to complain Note: location/area is sketchy due to the parking lot activities! We will definitely come back and try their other dishes Bon appetite

Spring rolls
Jackson T.

Went here on a cold winter night in February with my siblings for dinner. The restaurant had a steady stream of customers, but was not overly packed, which I prefer. We ordered the spring rolls and the duck rice plate as an appetizer. I liked both dishes, but did prefer the spring rolls and the peanut sauce. Both dishes were good. I ended up ordering a small bowl of pho for myself and it was good. My siblings all ordered pho as well except one who ordered the Bun Bo Hue. We all liked our dishes and the customer service was excellent. I did not know am old friend of mines family owns this restaurant so it was a nice surprise. This restaurant is located next to a liquor store, which is busy and has a lot of customers coming and going. Will be back again

Part of the Family Dinner for 2 - veggie dish not pictured
Mei L.

Stopped by here while running errands in Sac Town. We got the family dinner for 2 - canh chua shrimp, caramelized catfish claypot and stir fried veggies ($45.99) plus the offal plate appetizer ($17.99). All dishes were amazingly good... the com gia dinh reminds me of the dinners I had with my family as a kid. The canh chua soup is one of the best I've ever had at a restaurant. Can't wait to return next time I'm in town!! Staff is so helpful and attentive, esp our waiter and Tony :) bathrooms are super clean and there is plenty of parking.

Pork chop rice plate
Cynthia S.

This particular restaurant spot always changes but I am glad I gave this place a try! I definitely think they now have better pho and food options than the past previous restaurants. I got #27 which is a pork chop rice plate. It was so filling! Great portions for everything it came with and the server gave me a side of broth which complimented the meal so well. My family got their pho and the broth was flavorful. I tried the tendon in the pho and it literally just melts! Best part ever. The space is clean and open. The servers are very nice and welcoming. I'll definitely come back!

Banh canh
George H.

Stopped by here after my usual pho place closed for the day. Got the banh canh and it didnt disappoint. It was clean and very friendly staff. Will definitely come back. Tony was awesome! Cant wait to try other items!

Bun Bo Hue
Vivian P.

My boyfriend and I wanted something warm after our snowboarding trip, so we came here. Parking was super quick to find! There wasn't a lot of people in store, but the ambiance was nice and it seemed like they had a lot of online orders. We both got the Bun Bo Hue, and it came out fresh! I like my bun bo hue super spicy, so I had to add a bit more chili sauce. Our waiter was super friendly as well!

Seafood Pho
Kaela H.

We happen to find this place by chance on the road home back to the Bay Area, and initially we were confused on where it was because they had changed their name. It's in the same plaza as New Asia Supermarket, and it's the only pho place there. For a late lunch, we were seated immediately. The menu is quite extensive, but we came in for pho because we were craving some noodles after the weekend on the slopes. We ordered the spring rolls to start with, and I personally ordered the seafood pho. Spring rolls were freshly made, soft and delicious. I liked how my pho's soup was light and clear. It didn't taste super heavy or full of MSG. I love the fried garlic and chives in there. I've never encountered seafood pho with fish balls, but these were really good. It had 2 shrimps and plenty of squid. I tried the beef pho soup from my husband's pho, and I liked how it tasted well seasoned with real spices... not MSG. I'm very MSG sensitive so I'm glad I'm not getting a headache while typing this. Our server Tony was very attentive and nice to us so I gotta say that's a plus. Super friendly guy! This place is definitely worth the stop.

My pops and I came here for a nice little lunch. This place is located in the New Asia Supermarket plaza. First impression, this place seems brand new. It was pretty quiet when we walked in, there was a good amount of people in there. The man who sat us down didn't speak English well, it actually seemed like he was in training. But he was very nice. My dad ordered a medium #1 (pho dac biet) and I ordered a small #2 (pho tai) and we also got the fried calamari. Food- The calamari was very good! I haven't had good calamari in a while, but I loved the batter on it and the squid wasn't rubbery. The pho was good! The broth was super flavourful and there was a good ratio of noodles and meat. My dad and I both enjoyed our meal. Service was very sweet and kind. My dad accidentally spilled his water on himself and the workers immediately came and helped clean up the mess! They even gave us a towel so my dad can dry himself up. So thanks for that :)

Is it closed now? Drove to it and it looked closed down

I think so. We also drove by into the plaza and couldn't find the place. Others say it was previously a restaurant named something else but we didn't see any building indicating the old or new name

Was this the restaurant that used to be Pho Sacto? Is it same management, just different name?

Yes! This the restaurant that used to be "Pho Sacto". It doen't look like it has the same management,

The service was quick - we got our food within 5 minutes of ordering. There are self-served condiments table on the right side of the pick up window. You can load as much condiments as you like. They have pickled mustard greens, pickled long beans, bamboo shoots, roasted soy bean, roasted peanuts, scallions, cilantro, and hot sauces. - A1 Guilin Rice Noodle: the noodle was very soft (but a bit too soft for me). The meat pieces were tender and good. The crackling pork pieces were super crispy and gave a nice texture to the dish. - A10 Braised Pork Dry Tossed Noodle: the curly noodle was firmer type than A1 and had a bit of chew (which was similar to instant noodle) and I prefer this. The braised pork was flavorful and delicious! - B11 Preserved Duck Egg with Tofu: the tofu was soft and was a good combo with the preserved duck egg. The egg itself didn't have very strong taste so it was very pleasant. The spicy sauce was mild for me but the overall dish was good. - C1 Old Gui Lin Boba Milk Tea (less sugar): good and milky. The less sugar version was the perfect sweetness for us. The boba pieces were chewy and good.

Interior is somewhat dimly lit. They have tables off to one side of the restaurant, with a lot of space being taken up by the worker / behind the counter area. I had the Beef Brisket Rice Noodle Soup. The meat isn't the type of meat I like (lots of tendon/cartilage), but it has good flavor. I really did not like the pork in the Pork Rib Rice Noodle Soup. It was super tough! I did enjoy the flavor of the soups though. It seemed like the broth was high fat content. I really liked the self-serve condiment bar. This was one of the highlights for me. I'll be a returning customer.

When they came out to bring us water they asked us to move in case a "big party" came they would have no where else to sit, so we moved (they couldve seated us in the first place and no big party came..). Anyways, ordered the yum woonsen, pork drunken noodle and the khao soi. All were 15.95 each. First glance, portion differences was crazy. The drunken noodle plate was so BIG, then compared to the yum woonsen and khao soo those were soo small. I wanna say their stir fried dishes r big portions and everything else is small ig. Flavor of yum woonsen was pretty good, i usually like the sauce, two shrimps. Drunken noodle not bad, noodles r cut rly big lol and bit mushy decent flavor. Overall wouldnt come back, would rather go to saivaree (sister restaurant) which gives better portions and i believe their pricing is cheaper/same.

This had the perfect balance of sweetness. It was light and refreshing and balanced the rest of the flavors of the meal. I started with the seaweed salad. It was a solid seaweed salad. Good seasoning and texture. It was a good portion size as well. Melissa and Jonathan had the gyoza. They were stuffed full of meat, but I felt like the seasoning was a little less than and also they were unevenly cooked. I still tried one though because a gyoza is a gyoza. As my main, I had the karamiso ramen with a spicy miso based broth with seasoned ground chicken, veggies and chili threads for an extra kick. I enjoyed this bowl of ramen. It was the perfect level of spice. I am partial to ground meat in ramen, so I liked that this was an option. The veggies were cooked al dente which I appreciated, and the broth was filling and flavorful. The noodles were thin which is my favorite type. Attentive service here.

My wife got the Aka Red Tonkotsu ramen, the broth was definitely lighter, and the spice level was abut the same as the one I got. The portions were generous, we were not able to finish our ramens unfortunately. But I must say, for the price, it's worth it. I would like to go back and try their tan tan men.

Fair warning if you are a larger group and come at peak times, join the waitlist early or be ready to wait a bit! The interior is bright, lively with a ton of bright light and decorations. There is a good amt of seating but let me tell you, it fills up FAST. The menu is EXPANSIVE with tons of options for omnivores and vegetarians alike. I will admit the impossible siu mai grabbed my attention pretty fast because I had never seen a vegetarian siu mai before sooo we had to order it. My friends shared the pork xlbs and we got the garlic green beans and the garlic noodles to share as well! Honestly, it was like being in a flow state between the garlic noodz and the green beans alone; highkey could eat multiple plates of just those two back to back to back l o l The siu mai was also delish but the other two dishes were somehow better. The soy/vinegar and chili oil they give for dipping is so good and hits that perfect note between salty/tangy/spicy. Prices are fair for the quality and I would love to go back and try more of their vegetarian options! I appreciate that this a spot that both vegetarians and their omnivore friends can go~ Have to go back to try their desserts including the egg tarts that sold out!
