Finally found a new pho spot in the area that makes me stop driving down to the Vietnamese area. The broth is clean, flavorful and the quality of the meat really stands out. This is officially my go-to place . read more

We ate there few days ago & it was delish. Clean, great food & great service. Close to my house & loving it!

I stopped by Pho 85 during their soft opening to take advantage of a special promo pho, and I was genuinely impressed. I ordered the beef pho with lean brisket, and the broth was absolutely incredible. It was rich, deeply flavorful, and one of the best broths I've had in a long time. It honestly ranks up there with one of my longtime favorites, Pho Ha Noi. The service was quick, friendly, and attentive, and everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. My friend and I left happy knowing we've found another solid spot for our pho fix in the South Bay. I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying more of their beef pho options. Highly recommend checking them out! read more

Been wanting to try this place out since good authentic Asian restaurants aren't as prevalent in this area. We came in around 5pm and it wasn't too busy. Very clean and modern vibes inside. We ordered a #4 and #14. Both came with a good amount of noodles and meat. The meat quality really stood out to us - they were good cuts and very tasty! I love that they have a nice well rounded menu. Our usual go to is Pho Teresa because it's right by our house, but we will also be coming back to Pho 85! Over all a great first experience. read more

Place just opened up and really good. A must try location! Not many good pho places nearby and this one is pretty good. The owner is super nice she seems to be working with her son. This is a family business that I will be supporting. Parking is easy and a lot of available places to park. Food selection is plentiful. They have a variety to pick from not just only pho. They provide sandwiches and rice plates too. The menu is pretty cool double sided board not the traditional plastic. The pictures of the food is very vibrant and shows the quality of the food. My only suggestion is once this place gets packed there won't be many available seats so maybe outdoor seating during the summer. Decoration of the inside is super nice. You can tell they put a lot of effort in how the location looks. Now down to the food part. They have a special going on that's going to end soon but will have a rewards program after all special ends. She luckily mentioned the special to me that I didn't even know. Big props to her! The broth is pretty good for the option we had. The selection offered was the Beef Bone pho which rolled off the bone so easily. They provided scissors which is a must to help cut up the meat. Normal price is 19$ but they were doing an opening special of 12.99$. Not a bad deal. I will definitely come back to try the other options. read more

Came here around 7:55 pm on a Friday with my girlfriend! PARKING: this restaurant is in a plaza so there was plenty of parking. PLACE: used to be where mochinut was so it is pretty small and there are a few booth tables and it isn't hugely spacious so it could get crowded quick if it is busy. SERVICE: only one or two servers on the floor so could take a little bit for your order to be taken but they were pretty accommodating and fast! FOOD & DRINK: Thai tea & mocha smoothie - Thai tea had very good flavor, my girlfriend wanted boba but they didn't have any at the moment; mocha smoothie tasted more like coffee but watered down. Special grilled shrimp, grilled pork, and egg roll - portions weren't huge as I expected but since a lot of meat came into the bowl I understand and also since it is for one person as well. Definitely could have used some more sauce than just a grilled flavor but overall solid, could have a choice between salad, vermicelli, or rice. Filet mignon rare steak pho - meat kind of tasted like every other pho but overall really good broth and I love to dip my meat in a variety of sauces but overall not bad for quality. A great pho place, 5 stars for good service but since it is their grand opening they had a raffle which was nice for every $20 spent you get a ticket. read more

Checked the new Pho spot in the South Bay. More and more spots keep popping up, so the competition in the area is getting tough. The pho here tasted great. I didn't feel heavy or bloated after. Everything was fresh. I wish they gave you more hoisin and sriracha sauce. The restaurant is small, so it may not be the best place for a large group. I will definitely be coming back soon. read more

Pho 85 - #5 - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Lots of parking and the restaurant is very clean. The waiting staff might need some help but the team overall is doing a fantastic job for being a new business. Interior decor is a bit weird since it's all Roman aesthetics, I guess Julius Cesar loved Vietnamese noodles? The pho broth is a bit salty for my taste but overall it's very decent. I love that they give the options for fresh noodle, not many pho reustraunt have this option as this is only the real way to eat pho (other spots uses vermicelli noodles in their pho and it's not the authentic way to eat this meal). They do not cheap on the sides of veggies or meat, there is plenty. read more

Parking: huge parking plaza with plenty of spots Interior: clean, modern design, multiple tables for different group sizes. Wait Time: None to be seated and about 5-10min for food. Weekend lunch was not busy. Items Order: 8/10 Grand opening pho $12 - small size bowl with well done flank. Broth was on the sweeter side but I liked it. It was clear and very flavorful not too fatty. Got fresh noodles and it was bomb! Meat was tough and not much portion. read more

Saw this place on IG and saw they were having a grand opening deal for a bowl of pho. So when I had a free meal, I stopped by, on a weekend for a quick lunch. It wasn't very full when I arrived but was pretty busy when I left. They are located in a newish strip mall, with some other restaurants and other stores. Plenty of parking. I walked in and was greeted and handed a menu. I decided on the spring roll appetizers and the special - $12 for a bowl of brisket/flank pho. Where all bowls of pho are close to $20 a bowl nowadays, this is a steal. The spring rolls came out first. I think they had an option for pork or shrimp - I opted for shrimp. There were 4 half rolls, all with lettuce sticking out of them. I only had one, dipped in the peanut hoisin sauce. And then my pho arrived. It was a pretty big bowl, steaming and hot. Plenty of pieces of meat. Broth was flavorful - very star anise forward. Not too oily either. It was a solid bowl. I would have this again - but I like the dac biet version with all the things. Also I liked that one of the waiters brought me over a to-go container for my spring rolls before I even had to ask. I was only able to have a half of one, along with my pho and I was pretty stuffed. I also see they're having a short rib special right now so I might be back soon for that. They just had their grand opening so go check them out. read more

We had lunch here today forth first time. Pho 85 is located in the corner of Cottle and Beswick Dr. next door to China Delight. They took over the Mochinut spot that closed in January 2026. We walked in and went straight to their front counter. We were shown to a table and given menus. We hadn't been there for 3 minutes and we were asked for our order. My goodness lol , we just sat down and have never been here before. We told the young lady we needed more time. The inside looks exactly the same as Mochinut except for replacing the Mochinut sign, with a Pho 85 sign above the angel wings painting on the wall. They also painted over all the pained doughnuts except for one. They packed as many tables as they could in there, because the space is small, but it works. They did great filling that space. We were finally ready to order. The waitress came and we ordered the shrimp spring rolls for our appetizer without bean sprouts. My hubby ordered #36 the pork and grilled shrimp rice plate and I ordered the #31 the grilled pork, grilled shrimp and egg rolls with no bean sprouts in the salad. Our waitress had a look on her face like she was upset and didn't want to be there. When I reminded her, kindly, about no bean sprouts in any of our food, she just stared me down with a look of disgust. She also didn't write our order down. I had a feeling that things were going to go wrong because of that and I was right, unfortunately. Our shrimp spring rolls arrived first. They came out within 7 minutes. I noticed that there were no bean sprouts, yay! However, one of the shrimps in the roll had three dark black spots on it. And they were not small spots either. There was no way I was going to consume this and I was surprised that they served this to us like that. I got the attention of our waitress and her superior came by as well to look at it and apologized and said they would remake it. It took 10 minutes for the remade shrimp spring rolls to come out. And guess what? They filled it with bean sprouts. So here we go again. I had to tell their manager that I told our waitress that I can't have bean sprouts and that we can't eat this. She looked pretty pissed off but took it back to have it remade again. Finally after waiting 15 minutes. They brought out the new shrimp spring rolls and they were made right. They did, however, forget to put the crushed peanuts on our dipping sauce.....oh well. The shrimp spring rolls were just okay. They were very plain with just rice noodles and lettuce with shrimp halves. No cilantro, carrots or anything else. The peanut dipping sauce was good. We added some sriracha to it and that made it better. Our main dishes took over 30 minutes to arrive and both orderes were wrong. They gave my husband a pork and rice plate with no shrimp and with 2 egg rolls he didn't order. Then my order arrived and all I got was pork, 1 egg roll chopped up and plain lettuce with bean sprouts lol . I mean really? At this point the whole thing was just laughable. This is why it's critical to write a person's order down! We had to explain to them what the was wrong and that took awhile. Instead of leaving leaving my husband's plate and bring out some shrimp on the side for him, they took his whole plate away. What a waste. He could have at least started eating the pork and rice. I guess since he didn't order the egg rolls they didn't want him to eat them. They were already on the same plate. At least let him eat them since you messed up his order. I had to show them a picture of what I ordered and explain to them I only didn't want beans sprouts. I did want the pickled carrots, daikon radish and cucumbers on it. I wanted it just like the picture but with no bean sprouts. Finally our food came out correct but all the pork and shrimp were ice cold and overcooked to the point of having trouble chewing it. I have never experienced anything like this before. I have to say it was very frustrating and disappointing to say the least. There was one employee who apologized and was very sincere about it. She was very sweet and didn't charge us for the shrimp spring rolls, which was kind of her. I just can't justify coming back here. I think there needs some improvement with customer service. I also think they need a better system with taking down orders that will avoid repeated mistakes and wasted food because of those mistakes. And please don't serve cold food to your customers. Overall, a very bad lack of communication and understanding of what we ordered. Numerous mistakes with our food, because of not properly communicating to the kitchen. And the quality of the food was just not there. Dried up grilled pork and shrimp that is served cold is not acceptable. The white rice was also dried up and old. I hope they can learn from these mistakes and improve their business. read more

I also love the cleanliness. Ambiance is nice too. I ordered the fried salt & pepper tofu appetizer & the house special pho with fresh noodles. Fried tofu is good. Lightly fried which love.

Thai tea is just slightly bit too sweet. Strawberry-ade is a sparkling strawberry soda drink. read more

Food was so flavorful! Nice little restaurant and the ambiance was great! My son says this place beats our usual pho spot

Pho 85 has quickly become our go-to local pho spot! The service is always so warm and attentive, and the dishes come out incredibly fast, fresh, and piping hot every time. The portions are also very generous, which we really appreciate. The restaurant itself is a little on the smaller side inside, but there's actually a good amount of parking in the lot considering the size. We've been so impressed with every visit that I've been recommending it to all of my friends. It's such a great feeling to have a delicious pho spot so close to home without having to travel far. Can't wait to go back ! read more

Pho 85 - The place of how nice it looks - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Just visiting the area and decided to stop by for a quick bite. Great selection and clean restaurant!

If you want the premium pho experience, you should come here. Unlike a typical Vietnamese pho joint, the tables are bare and the servers bring out all the accessories; chopsticks, spoon, napkins, hoisin and sriracha, and the herb / bean sprout spread. Water comes out in a chilled metal cup with crushed ice (the best). The broth is rich, flavorful, sweet and aromatic; so much that I have trouble finishing all the broth. I ordered the regular noodles. I don't know what's with the fresh noodles, I'm more of a traditionalist. The beef (I got tai and chin) was so tender; I think they use filet mignon which is crazy, but wow so enjoyable. Price is slightly higher than the normal pho places, but it is well worth it. If you just want a quick cheap bowl, don't come here, but if you want the best, this is the place. read more

First timer here! Variety of choices from the menu and many options for pho. Service is fast and kind. Must try here in the South Bay.

I've ordered the Pho Combos #1 a few times now, and it consistently hits the spot. The broth is aromatic, rich, and clearly simmered for hours - not just salty beef water. The #1 combo gives you a good mix of rare steak, brisket, and meatballs, all tender and fresh-tasting. Noodles are cooked perfectly (firm but not underdone), and the side of bean sprouts, basil, lime, and jalapeños was generous and crisp. The portion size is easily two meals for me, especially at this price point. read more

Amazing experience, I keep coming back. Even for take out. Not just cause I live across the street, but I sincerely am happy this place has finally opened & I have good pho, good sandwiches, drinks too.

Really good Pho, I would say it is on par with other elite pho spots in San Jose, e.g. Pho Papa, Phone San Jose, etc. Their combination pho is a bit pricy, but the quality meats + cuts they use is well worth it in my opinion, it even comes with oxtail, and you can opt for fresh noodles at no additional charge. Restaurant is small, but clean and nicely decorated. Service was good overall. read more
