#4. Pho Filet Mignon Rare Steak
Yvonne Y.

We were in the neighborhood and decided to stop by after seeing the great Yelp reviews. I'm so glad we did! We came around 1 p.m. on a Sunday, and the restaurant wasn't crowded. We were seated right away, and seeing lots of Vietnamese customers made us feel like we picked the right place. After looking at the menu, it was clear that the signature here is the oxtail pho. The giant bowl looked amazing, but I wasn't very hungry, so I ordered the #4 rare beef pho while my husband got the signature oxtail pho. When the food arrived, my bowl looked a little plain compared to his overflowing bowl of oxtail and other cuts of beef. Luckily, he shared some with me, and it turned out to be the perfect combination. The broth was absolutely delicious. It was rich, flavorful, and served piping hot. Honestly, it's one of the best pho broths I've had, and I enjoyed it even more than Pho Ha Noi. The beef was tender, and my husband loved how much oxtail came with his bowl. The restaurant was clean, the service was friendly, and they even have a buy 10, get 1 free loyalty card, which was a nice surprise. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Open until 12:30 AM daily. We arrived quite late, maybe around 11 PM, and there was a waitlist. The service was kind of nonexistent and lagging but quite typical for a pho shop. The floors were dirty with food still there, too. Giving them some slack because they're open late and I would think they've been busy and working hard all day. I know their name translates to pho oxtail but no one in our group ordered it. We each had different combinations and one chicken pho. When our bowls came out, my first thought was the serving size was small but in a big bowl. However, once I started eating, it was definitely plentiful and filling. The broth was slightly too salty for my liking but it was still aromatic and tasty. The chicken pho was said to be delicious as well, as it had a clean and definitive flavor. It was also served with a side of nuoc mam gung to dip the chicken in. Overall, good late night pho spot.

10/10 PHO, definitely lived up to the reviews. Would come here again 100% . Great customer service and very clean establishment!

Pho Kobe
Natalie T.

Pho is unique, delicious, and the best part... they are open late!! I got the pho Kobe, which is not really offered at typical Vietnamese pho shops, so I decided to give it a try and yeah, this was really good! What they do differently here is torch the Kobe beef, plate it on the side, and you eat the smokey savory beef slices as you are eating your pho (I always get fresh noodles, they are better trust me) the beef was soft, tender, and had a fantastic bite with the fresh pho noodles. Also the soup was incredibly beefy, and a bit oily, but I actually like that in my pho soups! it's a pretty decent sized restaurant, and I absolutely love they are open late whenever I am craving some pho. However the lighting is actually so bright in there, that is my only feedback, but the pho itself is delicious!

Such a good spot! I've been here 3 times in the past couple months. I always get my pho with the fresh noodle and it's so much better in my opinion! The broth is sweet and full of umami! All the meat is so tender and well cooked. Would come back to get more for sure.

Soo glad we found this place! Now we have a favorite chicken pho place to go to. Got the combo and the breast only chicken pho. Broth was flavorful, good portion of noodles and chicken. Loved that the soup came out temperature hot! We also loved the eggrolls, very peppery and enjoyed that it had shrimp in it! The sauces were good along with their chili sauce. Place has plenty of seats inside. Parking is good too. Service was kind and quick.

Andy V.

The service was fast and attentive here. Our food came out within minutes after ordering. I got the Oxtail pho. Oxtail was tender and the fresh pho noodles was delicious with nice consistency. I also got the Sugarcane drink which was tasty and not too sweet. Make sure you ask them for chili oil which they keep in the back. My son got the Kobe pho. It was good and we loved the nice char it had. The only thing that sucked was they brought it out torched already, and didnt torch it tableside like I thought they were gonna do. They have a promotion right now, if you buy 10 bowls od Pho, you'll get 1 free. Come check them out!

Oxtail pho

Staff was really nice. I didn't see the option for the food challenge since I saw it on social media. Food was amazing. I love the amount of oxtail in the pho.

The pho here is awesome! Nice clean tasting broth with lots of flavor. I like how they have the full sauce bottles here too for sriracha and hoisin sauce. Great meal and quick service as well!

Food: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 When it comes to pho, I love it when the broth is steaming hot and Pho Duoi Bo didn't disappoint, the broth stayed hot throughout my entire meal! The broth was very rich and flavorful but as a heads up to those who prefer a 'cleaner' broth, it did lean a bit on the sweeter and oilier side for my personal taste. The depth of flavor was solid and the meats were tender and high quality! The vibe in the restaurant is casual but I am a little saddened by their service in regards to their loyalty program. The staff didn't mention anything about the buy 10 get 1 free promotion and I didn't realize I missed out on the opportunity until I had already left but I'll know for the next time I visit! If you want to give this place a try, remember to ask for extra lemons/limes to help cut through the sweetness and fattiness of the broth! Also, remember to ask for your stamp card at the register :)

#21. Lean Brisket, Well Done Flank, Fatty Brisket
Emily T.

Hands down one of the best pho spots in San Jose at the moment. Food is great, interior is nice and clean, and staff are friendly. They're located in the Alvin Center Plaza off Tully which can be super busy at times so be prepared to circle the parking lot during their busier hours. They have a wide variety of pho to choose from, but I love the #21. Everything is really fresh - their broth is sooo good and even their noodles hold so much flavor. The meat is really tender and I love how generous they are with their meat portions. The best part? They have stamp cards! Buy 10 get 1 free. This is the only pho spot I know that does this. They're also open later than most pho restaurants which is a huge plus. We'll definitely be back again.

Vietnamese diners inside the noodle house.
Frances M.

Very flavorful pho and at a reasonable price. Most of the noodle dishes are under $20 at the time of this review. If this is a good indicator, the place is full of Vietnamese diners so that's a positive endorsement. The place is clean and the staff is very attentive. I was seated immediately and given a laminated one sheet menu. The waiter took my order and within like 5 minutes the pho noodles arrived at my table. The rare steak cooks in the hot broth so it's not raw meat. I couldn't finish the bowl of noodles; it's enough to feed two people. So the rest is coming home with me to finish later. Highly recommend even though it's not fancy.

I have allergic with MSG "Bot Ngot", your Pho does not include it into the ingredient in broth soup recipes, right? Thanks,

Hello, Sorry the broth does have little MSG. If you are allergic to it the you should avoid it. Sorry.

Omg I see they have oxtail soup. Besides that soup, what else should I try? It doesn’t have to be soup, just a must try delicious recommendation ? :)

Please lower the volume of TV... it's so annoying that I cannot enjoy the meal... will most likely not recommend my friends to go there since we can't have a normal conversation... so pathetic sad

The Bun Cha Ha Noi is fantastic. The pork belly was grilled perfectly, and it came with a huge assortment of veggies, a big bowl of sauce, and a good amount of rice paper. I loved being able to easily dunk everything into the sauce. Even the small portion was enough for 2 people. The Banh Mi Chao Bo Luc Lac was just okay. I liked that the pate was warmed up with the rest of the dish, and the beef cubes were well seasoned, but they could have been more tender. We also got the fried chicken wings in garlic fish sauce. The flavor on the outside was great, but the breading was a bit dense and the inside needed more flavor. The service was great and they checked on us several times.

Despite it being in a big lot, parking still took a while to find. Thankfully, we had thankfully just beat the lunch rush and not had to wait longer than 10 minutes for a table. My friend and I shared a Northern spread (Bun Cha Ha Noi) and a Southern style Goat Curry (Banh Mi Cari De). Service was definitely on the slower side that day, but thankfully we were proactive at getting the orders in. The Bun Cha Ha Noi was delicious - pretty much a DIY spring roll - all the fun, all the mess, with none of the clean up other than licking the plates clean. The pork belly was delicious; I was surprised how much I liked it, since I'm not a fan of pork. I devoured numerous rolls, and we also had some extra vermicelli to finish off the rest of the protein. This single meal was definitely more than enough for two! The Banh Mi Cari De (goat curry) was unfortunately quite the opposite. The goat was cooked very well - tough, gamy, and difficult to eat. There were probably six pieces in total, our first was tender, our second had bone, a little harder to chew, and the last was best compared to rubber. The curry was a bit watery, which made the banh mi soggy when dipped in. This was probably an adventurous try, but not a dish I'd ever consider ordering again.

Banh cuon Dac biet 1000/10 - it's freshly made you can just tell. It comes with the meat filled one and the shrimp one, and let me tell you, the rice flour roll itself is so flavorful, soft and silky. I've truly never had anything like it. They put a generous amount of meat inside this banh cuon and it complements so well with the fried shallots. Bun rieu 9/10 - the soup was so umami and flavorful, they included a big crab ball inside with tons of tofu and noodles, portions in this dish are generous as well. I think the main star dish here is the banh cuon though It only took me so long to try because every time I come, there's always a super long line but luckily today there was no wait!

Very casual no-frills spot in Vietnam Town, typical viet service, food came fast. I had the Banh Cuon Dac Biet and found it to be pretty average, not great nor bad.

I had to drown it in nuoc cham, which was pretty watered down. I slightly prefer Tay Ho in Santa Clara. Overall, it was by no means bad, but just fell short of expectations, and I wouldn't go out of my way to return. 3/5

I usually order their Bun Bo Hue in a large size so I can enjoy some at the restaurant and still have leftovers to take home later. Service is always quick--you get seated right away, and someone usually takes your order within a minute or two. The food comes out fast, hot, and fresh every time. No matter what time of day I visit, there are always people eating here, which speaks for itself. The broth is incredibly flavorful while still being light and aromatic. Combined with the variety of toppings and fresh vegetables, it's hard not to dig in the moment it hits the table (as you can probably tell from the photo, lol). The restaurant has plenty of seating, making it a great place to bring family and friends. When you're finished eating, you simply walk up to the counter, tell them your table number, and pay. Just keep in mind that they only accept cash or debit cards. If you're looking for a comforting bowl of Bun Bo Hue, especially on a rough morning after a night out, this is definitely the place to go. I will always come back here.

The flavor is on point for BBH but I just wish they wouldn't nickel and dime their customers.
