I ordered the grilled pork banh mi combo for a quick lunch and the portion size was pretty decent. The banh mi itself tasted good, but I wish there was a bit more meat inside to balance out the bread and pickled carrots and daikon. The fries unfortunately didn't travel well with the to-go order and ended up soggy instead of crispy. Overall, it's still a decent spot for a quick and convenient lunch. Will probably try other banh mi spot before coming back. read more

Pho Banh Mi - Grilled pork banh mi - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

We have always driven by this place and were curious about the banh mi and food. It is clean with a large interior and lots of parking. We went around 5pm on a Thursday and we were the only one in the restaurant. We thought it was closed initially. There are a lot of tables, but we figured we were just early for dinner. But, by the time we finished our meal, there was only 2 other tables that came. We ordered: - Special Vermicelli with Lemongrass-Marinated Tofu: This was okay and the portion size was big. The description said "eggrolls" but it only came with 1 eggroll. The eggroll also was kind of small. Make sure you ask for extra fish sauce otherwise the noodles will be dry. - Lemongrass Beef Banh Mi: the portion size was small for the price and was served on a basket. The bread was good, but we wouldn't get this again. Also, we were wondering how sanitary the basket that it was served on was (seems hard to clean, etc.) We would have felt better if the basket had some sort of disposable liner or plate. When you eat, the food may fall back into the basket, etc. They have fruit/cucumber water. We were the only table there for awhile and no one checked in in us. I had to walk up to the front to ask for extra fish sauce. Overall, this was a miss for us. Sorry Pho Banh Mi! read more

Walked in on Saturday afternoon 2pm for a late lunch, the "No MSG" sign attracted my attention right after I walked in. Inside fast food theme, simple and clean ! The staff welcomed us right away and let us to pick our seats. She provides menu and drinks right away. And we ordered pho noodle and Banh Mi. The pho is good but without any "wow" highlights for the first bite. However, the "NO MSG" 100% approved by my stomach for after eating experience. I personally enjoyed the Banh Mi much more, the baguette crunch outside and soft moisture inside plus the rich seasoning meat and pickles, great layers of taste. Definitely recommended. The only thing disappointed was the French fries-- even two French fans rejected to have 2nd bite. Dry and powdery. ( - one star) Great place to grab quick bite for friend and family . read more

Pho Banh Mi - missing the jelly - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

What has happened to the banh mi here? I have ordered the tofu banh mi here since it opened. It's gotten more expensive and the sandwiches are worse each time. This time my Banh mi smelled as if they put that fake popcorn butter on it. Asked for some nuoc cham dipping sauce, and the server didn't know what that was. Asked for jalapeño slices, but they weren't there. They've messed up to go orders before and their closing hours got a bit random, so now, with this, I don't think I'll be back. Too bad because it was a good place when they first opened. read more

Late review for back in Sep'24. Came by with my parents. My mom like coming here with her friends since staff is friendly and lets them yap without kicking them out. I personally had the special pho for $17. Pricier end. Pho I would probably prefer pho ha noi based on taste and portions. We also ordered a grilled pork banh mi $9.95, and a vermicelli pork $17.95. Staff was friendly and offered me a drink for it being my first time. Easy parking in the plaza. RIP to the burger king that used to be here haha. read more

I ordered the spring rolls and was honestly really disappointed. They only had lettuce, vermicelli, beef, and some kind of apple slice that didn't add any flavor. For $13 ($4 each), I expected more ingredients like cucumber, carrots, and cilantro. Definitely not worth the price. read more

Great place to come enjoy a nice bowl of pho! The ambiance felt very open and welcoming and it's conveniently a drive thru too. The pho was great and was flavorful. The service was wonderful too. I got a small bowl of bun bo bue too and it was delicious. It's nice they have a smaller version of the noodle dishes. Overall a great experience. read more

Pho is ehh, I order number 7 spicy beef soup. Came not spicy, they used spaghetti noodles, it had Chả lụa (pork) slices and came with red and green cabbage iso bean sprouts. There is a 10% service charge automatically for parties of 1 (one) or larger. That's right an automatic service charge. On the bottom of the receipt they change the term to gratuity. Ambiance is okay decently decorated. This is one of three the guy owns. Not sure why people vote 4 stars on Google. The owner is friendly enough but flavor of broth for the Seafood and Beef Pho are just mediocre at best. read more

This place got restructured with new management and they were doing a grand opening with 15 percent off! The best with the window seating and it being spacious everywhere. Obviously got the combination and it was interesting that they only had once size for pho! The combination definitely didn't lack all the fatty stuff, it had your fair share of steak and meatballs. It was a nice walk from home depot and around the neighborhood. Enjoyed the atmosphere there! read more

Finally got a chance to try this newer pho place in our 'hood. I'm recovering from a cold and nothing beats some warm pho to help soothe the congestion and calm a cough. Walked in and it had a familiar vibe as it used to be a Burger King that we frequented! The basic layout is still the same which is not a bad thing. There's a very spacious dining room that is well lit and adorably decorated, and even a drive -thru! Service was friendly and quick. We ordered two bowls of pho (beef steak and meatballs without the meatballs, and beef steak with brisket instead of meatballs) and one pork belly banh mi sandwich. I liked how they were able to accommodate our special requests. Everything was fresh and tasty! The pho was a very ample serving size with a good amount of meat. One minor disappointment is that the plate of fresh vegetables (mint, bean sprouts, lemon wedges) did not include jalapeno slices. The sandwich had lots of filling. Subtracting one star because of the automatic 10% service charge, in addition to several signs around the restaurant asking us to leave tips on the table. We did both and always do, so being reminded of that felt less welcoming. read more

Loved the ambiance and decor of this place, and how unique that it is also a drive thru! This has definitely been my first time seeing drive thru pho! I dined in and we got the lemongrass banh mi, combination vermicelli bowl, and a viet iced coffee. I thought the banh mi was delicious with great lemongrass flavor. The vermicelli bowl was such a generous serving and packed with flavor, but would like to see more finely chopped greens and bean sprouts. The iced coffee I could have gone without; it could have been stronger as it tasted watered down and was missing that condensed milk taste. read more

This was my first time here. I was really hungry and decided to come to this place because it was really close by to my location. I should have walked out when I saw the pho prices at $20 and up! I ordered 1 of 4 choices of pho. I ordered the steak pho without meat balls. I asked for extra onions and cilantro, but only got a bunch of chopped green onions. The temperature of the broth was barely warm and did not have the best flavor. I was highly disappointed and will not be coming back here! I did not finish my food and did not leave a tip! This was not pho and I did feel like it was ripped off. Please do not come here! read more

Used to be good, not anymore. New owner raised all the prices and food is poor quality. Ordered a $16 bahn mi, only to receive the wrong one that was terrible! Would not recommend! read more

I visit this place roughly every two weeks for a vegetarian bahn mi or a vermicelli bowl. The bread is amazing, and everything is super fresh. The dine-in service is really fast, but I also appreciate that they offer a drive-thru for those days when I can't spare an hour for lunch. read more

I had a combo banh mi here and it was decent! The bread was made really well. It had a nice toast to it and upon first bite, you can really feel the texture of the bread; soft and pillowy on the inside and deliciously toasted on the outside. The meats were great as well. Loaded with pork, and crammed with a lot of pickled veggies such as radish and carrots. Overall, not a bad spot for banh mis at all. This place will definitely satisfy a craving. read more

Decided to do their drive-thru and ordered their special vermicelli bowl w/ pork. Gotta say, $21+ for it? A little bit overpriced. I've had similar vermicelli w/ pork/beef/chicken and pricing wise, it's less and better. Price is probably due to location but nothing special that stood out from the rest. Also, while in line they mentioned the wait would be 10 min but delivered it in about 5. I guess expect to wait 10+ min if they're busy, even w/ drive-thru... Place didn't seem busy inside but looks spacious. Plenty of parking if you decide to dine in. The restaurant is facing the main street so you can't miss it read more

Awful. They recently changed ownership and it is still terrible. The pho is ridiculously salty and gross. I just ordered this, and the noodles were the WORST part. The vegetarian spring rolls were so bad I couldn't finish them! Kate, the new owner (??) is so nice but this place is still disappointing. Also, health code violations. Prices up too-- not surprised. At this rate, this business will definitely shut down. The pho is had recently was disgusting. read more

Go Phở It This is the newest and third location for this locally-owned and operated Vietnamese noodle and sandwich spot, with the other two being in Los Altos & Palo Alto. We have dined at their PA location in the past and enjoyed the food, so when we unexpectedly passed by this new Cupertino location, we couldn't resist and had to stop and check out their new digs. The Good: *This might be the most unique Vietnamese restaurant in The Bay, as it features a drive-thru thanks in part to the former BK that used to reside here. What a great concept to offer something semi-healthy compared to most drive-thru options. *Love the décor and ambiance of the place *Covered outdoor area (not sure if it's dog-friendly, tho) *We really enjoyed that their traditional spring rolls were made with shrimp and avocado, as opposed to the traditional sliced, boiled pork--which can be a bit flavorless. *Juices were good and not overly sweet. *Vermicelli noodle bowls were peaked with flavor and delicious grilled meats. The Meh: *Service was friendly but very, very green (see below) The Ugly: *Our dinner quickly turned into a comedy of errors, as we both didn't receive the dishes we had ordered, and they kept taking them back and bringing a different dish--which was still incorrect. We did finally get our correct dishes, and I will say that they handled it properly by giving us the mistaken dishes on the house to take home and were very apologetic. TLDR: Delicious Viet eats and drinks, but just make sure you check your order... read more

Be sure to call to confirm your online order is ready before you pick it up. Food is delicious.

Not worth the time and money. Food is lacking in flavor other than salt. Shrimps are old and rubbery and the popcorn chicken comes out raw and your dipping sauce is ketchup... You can do better with your own air fryer. read more

Pho Banh Mi - Popcorn chicken - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Stop by here about a few weeks ago. This place have a really great interior design . And the guy that works there that morning was really attentive and nice. That being said the food was just ok. I was really hungry. I ordered a sandwich first and it was good but they really skimp on the meat. They gave me a small bowl of beef broth to go with my sandwich but it was really bland. So I would imagine their beef pho to be bland also. After the sandwich I was still hungry so I ordered the beef spicy noodles. The noodle to me lack the spice and the pungent flavor of the traditional bbh. And my blood was undercooked. read more

We got the beef & meatball pho, plus the special pho and a beef vermicelli bowl. All three dishes tasted great! We didn't have room to try a banh mi on this trip but maybe next time! Menu is fairly straightforward, not too many options of each noodle dish, though there are some appetizers and snacks. We also got a Vietnamese coffee which tasted great but a tad expensive since there was so much ice. The food though I do highly recommend. Really enjoyed the pho dishes and the beef vermicelli was huge! The only downside is they charge 50 cents per takeout container, even if you dined in and had leftovers you wanted to bring home. Maybe we'll bring our own containers next time in that case. Since they converted the Burger King, it looks like the drive-thru is still functional if you wanted a faster togo experience. read more

Great pho and banh mi option in Cupertino. The pho came out quickly and the broth tasted flavorful without being too oily and good proportions of meat with it. The noodles were alright but tasted a bit on the dry side. They were still like this even though the noodles sat for some time and didn't sog up, which is guess is a good thing? The banh mi was flavorful, I just wished the baguette was a bit crispier and the egg was an over easy style egg instead of an omelette style. Good balance of ingredients in this one as well. Overall, a bit on the pricey side but they have good quality ingredients. Would definitely come back here again. read more

Don't be filled by the exterior. The building used to be the Burger King by the Honey Depot and I can't quite get that out of my head.

First off, the interior is nicely decorated, brightly lit, and fresh! There is a lot of seating. We came in at around 12:50 and the place was about like 40% full~ Right away, the staff were very attentive and the cashier I ordered with was super kind! The wait for the 3 bánh mì we ordered to go was not too long at all and they had some seats for me to wait on. My family ordered 3 bánh mì - The bread is soft and chewy, and doesn't rip the roof of your mouth lol. My sister said this place would be great for first-time bánh mì eaters. The size of the bánh mì isn't as big as other places like in SJ so the prices are kind of high but on the bright side, you aren't overstuffed or stuck with leftovers to carry around. They also give a nice proportion of fillings/nhân to bread/bánh mì so that's a plus for carb-conscious bánh mì enthusiasts. Will likely be back to try their other items ~~ read more

Walked in with my friend for a late lunch together. The place is spotless and very inviting. I ordered the grilled chicken rice plate and my friend ordered banh mi. My friend loveddd his sandwich and I LOVED the grilled chicken plate. There were some veggies on the plate with pickled sauce on the side which was delicious. I have cancer and it's hard for me to eat with all the medication I'm on. I was so surprised that I finished the WHOLE THING and enjoyed every bite. Haven't had food this good in a while. The service was amazing. Kate took our order and was very friendly and kind. She was so sweet and gave us everything we needed. I'm surprised this place doesn't have a line out the door. I live nearby and will definitely be back soon. :) I forgot to take pics unfortunately but I will next time. Just goes to show how delicious the food was. We couldn't even wait to take a picture. ‍ Check this place out!! :) read more

This spot took over the old burger king and what a welcome change! The prices are a bit on the high side, but don't be scared off. They didnt really change the layout but redecorated the place. There was an amazing playlist of pop edm songs but everything had a lofi remix which was awesome. It was a little confusing walking in. Nobody tended to me, and eventually was told to seat myself anywhere. We were then brought menus and subsequently ordered. The pho came out super fast and piping hot! Beautiful broth, complex, deep, elevated. Good quality meat. On the menu, you can get it spicy. Got the "spicy" on the side which ended up being the Bun Bo Hue broth, which is good, but not what I want with my pho. The banh mi came out and it was massive! I ended up taking it home and eating it the next day. While it was okay, I don't think I would get it again. I'd definitely come back for the pho despite the high prices! read more

After walking at the park, I decided to have a recovery dinner at Pho Banh Mi. I came in to the restaurant at a later time so I decided to order one entree to eat at the restaurant and one entree to takeout and eat at home. The restaurant had bright lights lit inside and saw every interior detail looking around the restaurant as I walked in. I ate at the side of the restaurant and had a comfortable wooden chair that I sat on. Looking down on the table, there were unique writings on top. At the side of me, there were many sauces and eating utensils to choose from. The restaurant was busy and had many customers eating in the restaurant. The entree I ate at the restaurant was the Grilled Chicken Rice Plate. It consisted of the Grilled Chicken with the House special sauce, fresh salad, and a side of entree sauce. The Chicken Rice Plate tasted amazing! The chicken was tender, moist, and the House special sauce was perfectly sweetened that made the chicken taste great! The salad had a light dressing on top and worked well with the chicken and rice on the plate. I enjoyed my dinner at Pho Banh Mi, not just because of the food, but the customer service as well. The servers were very courteous and took me in the restaurant without hesitation even though I had walked in around 8:10pm. The restaurant was closing at 9pm. I enjoyed my food dining experience at Pho Banh Mi... Great job Pho Banh Mi! At a later time, I decided to eat my Grilled Pork Plate before watching my TV show online. The Pork Rice Plate tasted delicious! The Pork was moist, sweet, chewy, and tender. It was easy to consume and worked well with the fresh salad and rice as well. I highly recommend coming to Pho Banh Mi for their food and amazing customer service! I would definitely come back here again and try their other food choices on the menu whether it be eating in the restaurant or ordering takeout food to eat at home. read more

2.5 stars but rounding up for a newer business. This location of Pho Bani Mi is located in the same complex as The Home Depot. Note, this review is for their bánh mì only, and the experience with their other items could be a lot different. The restaurant was half full at 3:45pm on a Sunday, and there were a couple of people waiting for their take out orders. They weren't picking up their phone that day, and I place;d my order in person- it took less than 10 minutes to get in and out. I tried: -Grilled Pork Bánh Mì ($8.95, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HSvNe39kYps1YfYIY3euGQ&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): Ok, but there wasn't enough grilled pork or pickled vegetables. The grilled pork also needed more sear, and could've been more flavorful. -Combination Bánh Mì (Pâté, Fried Egg, Lemongrass Beef, $8.95, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=5H6vsG3kJooOmiNm1qrt9g&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): I was excited to see a bánh mì option with pâté and fried egg; unfortunately, the pâté was a little gamey/liver-y tasting, and the fried egg was overcooked and more like a scrambled egg. The lemongrass beef had way too much lemongrass flavor, and there was very little beef or pickled vegetables- skip! Their staff was really friendly and helpful, and this could have been an off day. I would come back to try their phở and vermicelli dishes if in the area. Only indoor dining was available. There was plenty of parking spots available in this lot. read more

3.5 stars for the pho. Pho Banh Mi is in the same mall as Home Depot. Pros: - The soup and the noodles hit the spot. - Food came out fast. - Ample parking (ahem as compared to Pho Ha Noi down the street) - Bahn Mi and Vermicelli Bowls looked amazing - would want to come back for those. Cons: - Overpriced - could get a similar but better version at Pho Ha Noi down the street. The bowl itself felt pretty meager for the price. - Beansprouts - stingy amounts but they begrudgingly gave me a second helping. - 50 cents extra for take out boxes - Very salty / lots of MSG - left feeling so parched! read more

The sign has been there forever it seems but they have actually just opened for 2 months since Dec. unlike the other Vietnamese restaurants, they have a drive through setup. We chose dine in instead. It was colorful and cozy inside. The chairs were soft and covered in velvet. I hope they last clean when time goes on. The menu is relatively simple Vietnamese food, pho, rice plates, vermicelli and sandwiches. We tried the special pho (#3), grilled chicken rice plate (#31) and special vermicelli bowl (#35). They all tasted satisfying. The broth of the pho first tasted lighter than most other Vietnamese places in Story Road, but I didn't detect much msg that makes me thirsty or sleepy afterwards. The beef slices however are a bit chewy. The grilled meats tasted sweet and everyone liked them. The cashier at the front was very friendly that brings up the review by a star. read more

It was 54 degrees outside today at 11am. Time for a Pho Down!! Pretty good Pho soup. I have tasted better. The Spicy noodle was a little too oily, greasy. The tendon with the beef and liver was ok. Noodles were thicker than other Pho places. Overall it was very good. The facility was clean and the spring rolls with avocado and shrimp delicious. Service was excellent bilingual Vietnamese and English. Prices were normal as expected in Silicon Valley Cupertino California. I will be back to try the rest of the flavors. The inside was huge. If they had a better beef cut with some grilled vegetables, I would rate it a 5 star. I had some hot tea and that was perfect for the chilly weather outside. The Latino helpers speaking Spanish and English was also impressive. They also have drive thru for those of you in a hurry. I like to go inside and Yelp it out. read more

Been waiting for this spot to open & excited to finally try it! This used to be a Burger King and I thought they did a good job converting it into a nicer restaurant. The place is clean and nicely decorated. Staff are friendly, but sometimes there's a language barrier (some servers don't really know English), but it wasn't a big deal. The only mistake they made was giving me fish sauce instead of soy sauce lol. We tried the special pho (you can ask them to take out some things) and bbh. My husband and I liked both! They give really generous portions of meat, had so much leftover at the end! Besides noodle soups, they have banh Mi (of course) and rice plates! Will have to try them next time! read more

Good: - The combo pork banh mi was so delectable - it had such a good flavor, and had just the right amount of crispy to soft texture - The prices were super good - it cost around $9 for one banh mi - The place is beautifully decorated and there are lots of plants - We got free drinks for coming here for the first time - such good service! Bad: - Took a while to flag down the waiters and get them to take our order Overall this was a great find, beautiful interior and aesthetics, and felt like the price was super good. read more
