I recently ordered catering items from SJ Eggrolls for a birthday party I was hosting, and it was…read moresooo delicious! I ordered a tray of 20 nem nuong rolls and 40 pieces of their banh khot. Both items were so generous and actually fairly large! It also came with a side of their orange sauce for the rolls and fish sauce, veggies/herbs, and chilies on the side for guests who love spicy. Definitely larger portions and super affordable. We picked up the items 30 mins before our party started, and they were still fresh and crispy throughout the whole night! I was expecting the banh khot to get soggy/be soggy but it held up very nicely. I love the way they packaged everything and would 100% recommend for those who need easy finger food for their parties. Also ordering from them was very easy. I did it online a week in advance and they texted me at exactly 530p to let me know it was ready for pickup. Inside was a little small, considering it's mostly pickup and go, but loved how quick and easy everything was!

Banh khot: 4.5/5, great flavors, not too oily Net eggrolls: 3.5/5, lacking a bit of flavor and must be eaten fresh. After an hour, it gets super dry Love that they don't skimp out on veggies. Pricing: mediocre, a bit on the higher end.

I like how they have a large variety from every area of Vietnam. Bún đậu mắm tôm platter and the shrimp and pork belly salad served with shrimp chips was super delicious and refreshing.

The tables are fairly close together since it is a small restaurant. Banh cuon special was chef's kiss I loved that it had a variety of foods and textures. Rice rolls were soft and chewy, fried shrimp was crispy, salad was refreshing, and meatloaf rounded it out. To top it off, there's spicy fish sauce that added another kick of flavor. No other notes on this dish, it was perfect to me!!

This Vietnamese restaurant has been around for decades and has been a family staple for us for…read moreyears. We've probably eaten here 50+ times with family and friends, and one thing I can say is that they are 100% consistent. We've never had a bad meal here. There's a great variety of Vietnamese dishes, so everyone can usually find something they like. The chả cá (fish) is one of their popular dishes and a favorite. They also have good chicken phở, broken rice, vermicelli noodles, spring rolls, roll-your-own options, and plenty of soups beyond phở. You can order individual dishes or share family-style, which makes it especially easy when coming with a group. It's very casual, family-friendly, quick, and straightforward--nothing fancy and probably not where I'd choose for a date night. But for a dependable meal with family or friends, it's a great spot. Kids like it, parents like it, and my mom likes it--which says a lot coming from an older Vietnamese person who knows her Vietnamese food! The staff is always efficient and nice, and after all these years, the food remains consistently good. The biggest downside is parking. The entire shopping center has become so busy with restaurants that finding a spot can be overwhelming, especially during peak hours. Also, keep in mind they do not take credit cards. Bring cash, or you can pay electronically through options such as Zelle/Venmo. Overall, this is one of those longtime neighborhood restaurants we keep coming back to because we know exactly what we're going to get: good Vietnamese food, plenty of choices, friendly service, and consistency.

The staff greeted us warmly and provided friendly service throughout our meal. I ordered the rare beef pho, which was fine but fairly average in flavor. My friend ordered the vegetarian noodles, and those were actually quite good. Overall, the food didn't really stand out to me, but nothing was bad either. I appreciated the comfortable space, cleanliness, friendly staff, and variety on the menu. I'd be open to coming back and trying something different next time.

I would gladly return. 食物好吃、份量十足，而且離 SJSU 很近，地點也很方便。我很樂意再次光顧。 Highly recommend with my utmost respectful regards. 誠摯推薦，並致上我最崇高的敬意。

Don't forget to bring your cash! - Food: I ordered Bun Bo Hue dac biet and Hu tieu kho. + Bun Bo hue dac biet: Honestly, the BBH broth was not flavorful like I had before. Maybe the food quality is inconsistent. Anyways, their meat was fresh and tender. + Hu tieu kho: their Hu tieu kho really surprised me. It was flavorful, both the sauce topped on noodle and the broth. Most of the toppings were fresh. Only the crispy pork fat didn't taste good and had an unpleasant smell. - I've seen a review saying that the staff was unprofessional. I can confirm that it was true. One staff was eating while working:( Overall, this local restaurant is famous for its BBH and that's what most people come here for. I hope they can maintain the quality of their food and provide better training for their staff.

Wow, Tay Ho really upgraded their space! They renovated and there's so much more room in the dining…read morearea now. They also expanded the menu and pretty much hit every Vietnamese staple you could think of. Tay Ho has always been known for their banh cuon, but the uncle told me they wanted to bring more Vietnamese options to the area for people who can't always make the drive down to SJ. I appreciate that as someone always wants Vietnamese food. The banh cuon hits as expected We also tried the banh beo, and unfortunately that one was a miss for us. It looked promising, but the batter was a little too thick and the ratio of batter to toppings wasn't ideal. The table next to us got the banh xeo though, and that looked so gooddd. I'm getting that next time. Tay Ho, whether Santa Clara or SJ, is always in my rotation. Happy to see the Santa Clara location expanding and offering even more options!

The standout dish was the egg rolls. They arrived hot, golden brown, and perfectly crisp, with a satisfying crunch and a flavorful filling that made them the best part of the meal. The food, however, wasn't the reason for my rating. The restaurant's cleanliness left me concerned. I noticed cobwebs that appeared to have been hanging in place for a long time, along with dirt and grime collecting in corners throughout the dining room. Even the menus felt sticky, with a visible film of grease and small food particles still clinging to them. The faded print and worn condition made them look as though they hadn't been replaced in years. Those details created an impression of neglect that made it difficult to relax and enjoy the meal. With a thorough deep cleaning and some updated menus, this restaurant could create a much more welcoming dining experience. Until then, the cleanliness issues overshadow what was otherwise an average meal.
