    This used to be our go-to spot for a quick meal, but unfortunately, our most recent visit changed our opinion. My husband ordered the combination pho, and while he was about halfway through his noodles, he discovered a bug buried deep inside them. He informed our server, but his response was disappointing. Instead of showing concern, he simply said that it must have just flown in. Considering the bug was deep inside the noodles, that explanation didn't make sense. After finding the bug, we both completely lost our appetite and couldn't finish the rest of our meal. When we went to pay, another gentleman (possibly the manager) at the register asked how everything was. We explained what had happened, and he was already aware of the situation. He apologized and said we should have been offered a replacement meal, but the server never offered us one. He did remove the noodles from our bill, which I appreciated, and I was thankful for his apology and professionalism. While I appreciate the cashier's concern and effort to make things right, the server's lack of empathy and poor handling of the situation left a lasting impression. Because of this experience, we decided we will not be back.

    H1. House Special Chicken Noodle Soup
    Ariana H.

    I wish I could do 4.5 stars. Who doesn't love a nice bowl of pho on a cold Friday night? My husband and I had a date night and I really wanted to try a new spot. Yelp helped us find this gem. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted and seated immediately. We looked over the menus, got water right away, and placed our appetizer order quickly. We wanted to splurge, so we got two. Chicken wing app: This is the only reason my review isn't a full 5 stars. One of the wings wasn't fully cooked and left a bad taste in my mouth. The rest of the wings were crunchy, and the sauce they came with was sweet and sour. Egg rolls: These were delicious! I'm so glad we still got these along with the wings. They were crunchy and very savory. This restaurant has a very chill vibe for customers, but the employees are a well-oiled machine. One person sat us, another took our appetizer order, and then Tammy took our meal order. We know Tammy from our kid's school, but that doesn't make my opinion biased. She was friendly and quick to take our order. H1. House Special Rice Noodle Soup w/ Shrimp, Squid, Chicken & Fish Ball (LARGE): This was delicious. For starters, it came out super fast--I expected it to take longer since they were busy. Secondly, they gave me soooo much broth, which is usually a bad thing, but it was so tasty I didn't mind at all. Everything was cooked perfectly, and I got more shrimp than I usually do. My husband made his own rice plate--chicken and beef with rice only. Unfortunately, the portion wasn't great. I think it's because he customized it, but he only got one piece of chicken and one piece of beef. It was still very tasty, especially with their side of broth. Overall, this will 10000% be my new pho spot. Thank you, Tammy and team!

    Decent Vietnamese food for Fremont area - Pho with beef was good and came out quick - Shrimp cake was unique and very crispy

    Pho P7. Rare Steak, Well Done Flank and Brisket Soup

    I ordered to go because I was craving pho so bad and I hadn't tried this place yet. I got a Vietnamese iced coffee and it wasn't filled to the top. I didn't order any extras or anything when prompted so I'm not sure if that's normal or not. Also, the coffee was a bit dark but still delicious. I would probably recommend adding more milk to your order as per your preference. I ordered the 7th beef soup option. It was very delicious. The broth was flavorful, steaming hot, and I almost managed to finish a whole large portion by myself. My only issue was the meat had a lot of stringy bits and part of the steak was tough and chewy. It made it hard to eat. Other than that I'd love to have a dine in experience and try a different pho next time!

    Pho Ga
    Ariana J.

    Went with high expectations after hearing a lot of reviews from fellow Fremont food lovers but was pretty disappointed. I ordered pho mi ga which is the chicken pho the most common and basic dish. My chicken was not cooked at all. So raw. I kept chewing and chewing but couldn't bite through it. Not even 1 slice is chicken is cooked. The soup was ok, not great or omg. Not satisfied at all My husband said his meat noodle pho was good. Fried pork rolls are good, just as what the name says. The best dish is the chicken fried rice. Simple and delicious. But the reason we and anyone would go there is for the pho, which was disappointing. Ambiance is great. Loved the vibe Service is pretty quick.

    Highly recommend the lemon soda. Super fresh and refreshing at $5.50. Their fresh orange juice is also a must get! Super friendly service and easy parking. Overall a good to go experience.

    Pho with lean brisket, rare steak and tendon
    Vivian N.

    I moved from sj up here and I'm so glad there's a decent pho place nearby. I admit I was skeptical at first because there's not a lot of viet people here and the staff speak such good English. But I decided to try this place because I really needed my comfort food. I was pleasantly surprised! The broth is SOLID. It's nice and clear, full of umami flavor with some sweetness but not too sweet. I just wish they have fresh noodles. My husband is a fan of the beef fried rice. I've been here 4 times already whenever I'm sick or miss my parents. The restaurant is clean and has a peaceful vibe. The staff are so nice and courteous even tho i was ready for the vietnamese treatment iykyk. I feel like the only viet-speaking person there sometimes aside from the staff lol since most of the guests aren't viet. Will def come back again!

    Wonton with rice noodle soup
    Sandra L.

    I come here sometimes for lunch and I kind of like it. The beef pho is always good and fills me up every time. My husband always orders his usual P1 large with a Thai tea, he comes here pretty often! This time, I decided to try the wonton with rice noodle soup. I can never finish a large, so a medium is just right for me. The broth was so good and light, the chicken was tender, and the wontons were delicious. It definitely felt lighter than the beef pho, which was perfect since I wanted something filling but not too heavy. The Thai tea was a bit weak and not sweet enough for my taste. Service is fast.

    not playing rn u needa go here it's soooo goooood the thai tea creamy the pho broth delish

    P10. Rare Steak and Brisket Pho Noodle Soup
    Brandon O.

    I got the Pho soup with steak and brisket and it is so good. I'd even say it's healing. Pho99's broth is so tasty that I forget to drink my drink at times. The brisket is tender and the steak has a good size to it. Their noodles are firm, thin and enjoyable til the last bite. The portions are worth the price and leave me happily stuffed. I definitely recommend Pho 99 for some great pho. The steak and brisket is my favorite pho soup so far from Pho99. The people are also really friendly and kind which makes coming here worth it.

    Grilled beef wasn't all that great, however the egg rolls were fantastic! The pho chicken was watered down.

    Pretty good veggie pho. I think the spring rolls were my favorite though…read more Great service in a clean, comfortable space. The location is convenient and it was easy to find parking. I mean, what more could I ask for after a long day?

    TWO PHOS AND TWO RICE PLATES…read more The first time I came here was about a couple of months ago for Sunday dinner with my family. I'm not a fan of pho so I decided to order a rice plate, which was Combo Plate #2 that included one grilled pork and two fried chicken wings. The rice plate I ordered was ok. Even though the chicken wings were cooked inside the meat tasted bland. I wasn't planning to come back here anytime soon. On the menu however I saw a pho item that consisted of chicken quarters. The next time I came here was a couple of days later for lunch. I ordered the pho with chicken quarters. With the addition of the ginger scallion sauce the dish is basically Hainan chicken pho. I've had this type of pho at another eatery and is the best chicken soup I've ever had. Since the chicken isn't shredded, the meat isn't dry. Usually for Hainan chicken I would dip the chicken in the ginger scallion sauce. I did something different for the first time. I added the scallion ginger sauce in the broth. This brought more flavor to the broth. I'd rather have scallion ginger sauce in the broth than sriracha. I'm not a fan of pho. Having the chicken quarters pho provided me a different perspective on pho. When I started having pho I would order get rare steak and beef tendon. What I noticed is that the rare steak changes the texture of the broth, which becomes murky. Maybe that's why I never craved for pho. I find well done beef atrocious. After having the chicken quarters pho I thought why not try the well done brisket. About week later I ordered the well done brisket pho for lunch. From the outset I noticed the broth from the well-done pho is clearer than any beef pho before. How did the broth taste? The broth was the best tasting pho with beef ingredients. I think that has to do with not having raw slices of beef. The blood from the raw beef makes the broth murky. Since the brisket was well-done there was no blood that made the broth cloudy. Also the flavor of the broth enhanced due to the fat from the brisket. The well-done brisket give me a different perspective on pho. Maybe in the future I just order well-done brisket for pho. My last visit I had another rice plate. As I already ordered the chicken leg quarters pho I wanted to try the rice plate version. This dish is Pho Nation's version of Hainan chicken. Even though the scallion ginger was served this dish is different from Hainan chicken as chicken at Pho Nation is steamed and served hot. I ate two phos and two rice dishes. Normally at pho eateries I tend to like the rice dishes more, but at Pho Nation I enjoyed the phos more. If I want to eat pho with a clear yet tasty broth I would come to Pho Nation for either the chicken quarters or well-done brisket pho.
