    So we come here all the time the food is great but the staff is so rude we only order take out from this location, we get the same items each time so we are well aware how they're supposed to come. So today we placed a phone order and to our surprise on both of our they gave us double the rice and less than half the normal amount of chicken. I understand inflation but gaaawwwleee!! And when we called to inquire about it the woman on the phone was sooo rude and hostile and lied saying "it always comes like that" and as I stated before my family and I order all The time we know it's not! Anywho just avoid this location and go to the one by target instead. Way nicer and friendly staff

    Fresh Spring Rolls
    Ronald N.

    Pho 1 on Sonoma Blvd is officially the restaurant I will be dining at whenever I am shopping at 168. The restaurant has shut down Stockpot. This is the place to go to for Fresh Springrolls. First time I dine at Pho 1 right away I was seated and they were able to take my order. I order a Fresh Springroll, use the restroom to wash my hands and when I return my Springrolls was already on my table. That is what I call fast service. The Springrolls were delicious! A good proportion size Springrolls. The inside of Pho 1 was clean. The restaurant keeps up with clean tables for people to sit down at. Everytime I dine inside Pho 1 I don't see a dirty table. Keep up with the great service Pho 1

    Talk about the fastest service in town! Normally you will have to wait for your food to come out a little later, but no, spring rolls check! summer rolls check! Pho check! Thai tea check! And overall delicious! Lots of room and nice lighting in the restaurant. Lots of free and ample parking. Enjoy!

    #33 large Pho dumplings

    This is the best Pho in Vallejo because it's so so fresh and flavorful. Not to mention the servers are here to get your delicious for to you. Yes this place has a large menu but you can't go wrong with their Pho. I ate the #33 which is pho with dumplings. Great seating for all and a really clean restaurant.

    Grilled Beef Vermicelli

    Over the years, the price has gone up, but so did their serving size! This Pho restaurant is pretty solid - excellent service, quality dishes, and a very great choice for hangover cleansing. The restaurant is spacious and can hold large parties. I usually get the Pho soup here, which has always been so delicious. But on this day, I ordered the grilled beef vermicelli, and it was also a fantastic dish. The portion size is a lot and this is definitely a shareable dish. The grilled beef is so flavorful. The dish itself is already amazing, but adding more chili oil to it definitely enhances the flavor. This place is a very solid choice for whatever you're craving - soup, noodles, or rice dishes.

    ##9 - Thin Sliced Steak, Flank & Brisket w/ Rice Noodles. (TNG) with hofun noodles
    Ariana V.

    I've been coming to this location for years, and I especially miss their banh mi deli being open. I stopped by for some pho and I was pleasantly surprised with their menu change. The inside is spacious and tons of seating. The service is fast and on point. I ordered their #9 with hofun noodles because I prefer the thicker rice noodles! I also got a Thai iced tea. They were able to accommodate my request since the hofun noodles were only listed on the other pho options and not the beef side. The soup came out immediately. The broth was delicious and fresh. The meat was tender and flavorful. They provided extra limes when I asked too. I'll always come to this pho spot over the others in the area!

    Tried the shrimp noodle soup while my husband enjoyed the shrimp cakes and beef pho, every bite was delicious. Will definitely return!

    Not sure if this place is under new management but the workers were all new faces to us. Our last lunch here was a terrible experience. We had ordered soup and fried rice but never came. After we noticed 3 customers, who came after us, had received their orders, we had to follow up with the staff. The guy just said I don't know and he just puts in the order and the kitchen makes it. Obviously, our order was missed. This has never happened before, but as I mentioned, the staff looked new to us. Maybe they're still working on their ordering process. Food was still good. The portion of the fried rice is less from our past visits but otherwise, taste the same.

    My number go to spot for the best Pho in Vallejo. The service was quick and all the staff that I met was super nice and I loved the vibe and the chill warm energy. Definitely worth every visit every time!!

    This is their combo plate and under those enormous epic fried chicken wings is a pork chop and one egg roll.

    Pho 1 in Vallejo is a must-visit for authentic Vietnamese cuisine! Their extensive menu features everything from their renowned pho to flavorful rice plates and noodle bowls. Portions are generous, loaded with fresh vegetables, and packed with authentic flavors from perfectly prepared pork, shrimp, and crispy egg rolls. Every dish tasted amazing and authentic, showcasing the vibrant tastes of Vietnam. If you're in the Vallejo, California area and craving top-notch Vietnamese food, Pho 1 is the place to go. Absolutely delicious and worth every bite! Service was super attentive and the place fills up around 5 to 8 pm making the main dining room have an authentic ethnic food hall vibe! Highly recommend! Spence

    I'm honestly impressed... not by the food, but by the confidence. It takes real bravery to serve something this wildly incorrect and still call it bún bò Huế with a straight face. At this point, Pho #1 should be studied by scientists. How do you mess up every single component of a dish and still sleep at night? Let's start with the pho noodles. PHO. NOODLES. Using pho noodles in bún bò Huế is like putting ketchup on sushi -- the kind of mistake only someone who's never met a Vietnamese person could make. Then they tossed in pho beef like it was a clearance sale. No pork hock, no beef shank, no proper cuts -- just whatever was lying around from their pho assembly line. And then the plot twist: fish cakes and shrimp balls. Sir... ma'am... WHO told you this belonged here? What cursed YouTube video did you watch? And that broth? Let me be clear: if you take pho broth and drip chili oil on top, that does NOT magically become bún bò Huế. That's just spicy disappointment. As a Vietnamese person, this dish personally offended me. My DNA rejected it. My soul tried to leave my body. Somewhere in Huế, a monk sensed a disturbance in the force. And the wildest part? 700+ reviews and 4 stars. This can only mean one thing: they're catering to people who think pad thai and pho come from the same country. Non-Vietnamese folks probably slurp this and say, "wow, authentic!" Meanwhile I'm sitting there having a cultural identity crisis. If you want fake Vietnamese food made by people who think bún bò Huế is just "spicy pho with random toppings," then congratulations -- you found your spot. For everyone else: Don't come here for a fake Vietnamese experience. Don't come here for fake Vietnamese food. And DEFINITELY don't come here for bún bò Huế. Unless you enjoy being lied to by soup.

    Delicious, delicious, delicious. This restaurant is very large on the inside, we were seated right away and the food came out quickly. This was my first time here and now my new favorite Pho spot!

Very on top of water and refills on drinks as well! The food was amazing! The appetizers were so good! Some of the best lemon pepper wings I've had so definitely check those out! They offer ramen and fries on their appetizer menu so that's different but very cool. The meat itself was fresh and well marinated and very good They offer really fun and different alcohol drinks to try out as well so worth looking into when visiting The only thing would be some of the tables don't have vents directly over them, so you might get smoked out by the table next to you. Not a big deal, they're pretty on top of grill changes and may only be for a second The have high ceilings so most of the smoke goes straight up but in our case came over to our table. Smelled good though The price is reasonable and they even offer sushi for a up charge so maybe that's worth checking out on another visit! All in all great kbbq spot! Good selection, good food and drinks and nice people Will be back! Highly recommend

There's plenty of parking and it can get busy. You order first then you take a seat, there's self serve water here. We ordered the chicken karaage which came out really quickly and had big pieces of chicken, perfect seasoning, wasn't too much and it had like a sriracha sweet mayo dipping sauce. My mom wanted the seafood ramen and my dad wanted the wonton ramen. I know they don't eat too much so I figured to share with them and just ask for an extra bowl. My parents don't like spice so I asked for them to not have any spice in it. Their wonton ramen was a tonkatsu base and it was pretty good. They had huge mandu style wontons that I enjoyed with the bakchoy and hard boiled egg. The seafood ramen is the most expensive and it comes with shrimp, fish balls, bamboo, corn, sprouts, boiled egg and green onions. The shrimp were huge pieces and I enjoyed the ramen noodles. The flavoring tasted like regular ramen to me. Overall it was a busy flow for a Saturday night both with people ordering take out and those dining in. They also have sodas and Hawaiian bbq plates to order plus tons of other sides you can get ala cart. Service was quick!

I first heard about this place on social media when a few prominent food bloggers reviewed this spot and said their wings were the best wings outside of the legendary wing spot located in San Francisco. So I watched the videos and saw the pictures and I was truly excited to try them out. Well Mothers Day rolled around this year and I needed to bring an appetizer to my mothers party we were having that day in American Canyon & the idea of finally trying out their legendary dish was my entire focus. Driving down from Sacramento to get this dish wasn't the easiest of drives on a holiday but I was determined. I called my order in and as the saying goes,the worst the service the better the food-well I was pretty sure my food was going to be legendary based on that phone call. I ended up ordering both the Garlic Sauce Wings($15.95) and the Salt & Pepper Wings($15.95) This restaurant shares a decent sized parking lot with multiple tenants-so parking is not an issue.The neighborhood isn't the best part of Vallejo but I haven't had any issues yet with car security during my visits. When I arrived the restaurant was pretty busy but I noticed a worker had a full table that was full just for To-Go orders and I walked up to her and she handed me my receipt so I could go up to the cashier and pay. 5 minutes later I was in my car totally engrossed with the smell of this amazing chicken. I consider myself a true chicken wing expert and when I say these wings were pure flavor bliss-I truly mean it. The garlic sauce wings were a mix of sweet and savory and garlic with a slight spice-a wet wing experience that makes my mouth water just thinking back on. The salt and pepper wings were perfectly seasoned and a bite of that wing paired with the onion and Jalapeno toppings that come with the dish,can only be described as pure excellence. The chef truly has mastered the recipe and cooking technique on both of these dishes. Fun fact-due to various events in my life,I've had to drive to the Bay Area a few times since Mothers Day-I've been to this restaurant three times now in less than a week-I would say the love affair with this restaurant is burning quite hot at the moment.

    Unfortunately for me, the wings were actually really good. Now I got to come back for it. They're…read moresuper busy because they blew up on social media for their garlic sauce chicken wings. To be fair, I've never had San Tung's wings before. Now I have to try to compare them. Family owned so if you come late, they're pretty backordered from dine in, but primarily takeout it seems. The sauce is soy sauce based - salty goodness. Wish there was actually some heat (there are chili peppers, but not spicy at all). Felt like it was more decorative since it didn't add any flavor... Onions are great, wish there were more as well. Rice is charged per person, so they just gave us a bowl - presumably you can refill? We also tried the honey walnut prawns, which were okay. Not a ton of shrimp but reasonably priced. Leaned more on the tangy mayo side than sweet, would probably try something different next time instead to accompany the wings.

The wings were fried to perfection where the outside was crispy but the inside was so juicy and tender. But I didn't care for the glaze (which I believe is their "garlic soy glaze"), because it had a strong mustard flavor, which I totally didn't expect from the name. I was really expecting a savory and garlicky soy sauce flavor that would be balanced with a hint of sweetness. So the mustard flavor really took me by surprise and I wasn't a fan - If I had known they used mustard in that glaze, I wouldn't have ordered it. Service was nice and quite fast. I liked how after we placed our order, they pre-warned us that it might take them 20 mins to prepare the wings, although it turned out to be faster than 20 mins, which we appreciated :) The restaurant looks small from the outside but is so spacious on the inside. the restaurant was clean and organized.
