    Pho ga with giblets
    Han-Nha T.

    The giblets in the pho ga tasted not fit to eat or had a strange texture. Some were ok, but I had to spit out a lot. Flavors of the pho and dipping sauce were not Vietnamese, the broth was not flavorful. Resturant servers were Cantonese so do not order pho get noodles or rice instead. Even still were busy and had a little bit of a wait. Wouldn't come back, there are better places for pho and the place across the street has better Chinese noodles.

    The food is always super tasty! Modern decoration with relaxing environment. Seat right away, luckily not too busy on a weekend afternoon. Metered parking in front or free street parking on 20th Avenue. Ordered a rare beef and meatball pho with vermicelli ($15.95), chicken pho with flat noodles ($15.50), and grilled pork rice plate ($15.95). The soup was piping hot to cook the meat, it was light and had delicious beef flavor. The noodles had great chew. The rice plates that I ordered was simple (additional $4 for egg and egg rolls) but have really good portion, tender meat. Overall, pho was delicious.

    I love coming here every time because they always have fresh chicken meat and authentic chicken soup. I love how it's thick and soft rice noodles too. The food always comes out quick, whether you dine in, take it togo, or door-dash. I always tell my friends and friends to get the pho ga here. The service is always nice whenever I come. This place fits about 45 people here I believe and great for family gatherings.

    #12 - Chicken Noodle Soup
    Harry W.

    A SOLID Reliable Choice for Vietnamese Chicken Pho' (Noodle Soup). Great quality fresh ingredients, fast and friendly service. No-nonsense unfancy vibe with engineered stone tables and a airy high ceiling. #12 - Chicken Pho (Chicken Noodle Soup ) Light healthy broth, but just a tiny tad light on the quantity of cage free chicken this time. That said, what was there was delightful, tender and juicy. Noodles on point thin and slurpy! This humungous bowl is served with a side of minced ginger & salt aioli, and the usual side of fresh bean sprouts, freshly cut mint leaves and jalapenos,. Except for a light helping of the sprouts, I dunk the rest of it into the soup. The result is just delightful on a cold winter's night anytime out here in the not-so-sunny Sunset District. (4.4/5) PRO TIP - Be SURE to dab in some of that minced ginger & salt aioli in with your chicken. YUM!!! #23 - Five Spice Chicken Noodle Soup: For a dollar more than the Chicken Pho, you get a lot more chicken - roasted dark meat with a crispy skin. Sublty seasoned and good in soup. but then, I kinda like the flavoring of the #12 Chicken Pho a little bit better, but here, the meat lovers might be more satisfied. (4.7/5) #3 - Grilled Pork Spring Rolls: it says 2 pieces on the menu, but here you really get 4 sections - quite enough for 2-3 people. very crunchy lettuce inside with a bit of vermicelli and a good amount of grilled pork. Yummy, and a healthier alternative to the usual deep fried imperial rolls, which I haven't yet tried here. (4.8/5) Verdict: Great place to come for Chicken Pho, and the sides aren't bad either. We like it!

    Solid Vietnamese spot! We were actually planning to eat at Mama Mu's Bistro next door, but they weren't open at opening time so we headed over to Pho Ga instead and I'm so glad we did. Everything was good - the imperial rolls were crispy, the pho was hot & perfect for a cold day, and the five spice chicken with garlic noodles was tasty. Service was very friendly and quick. I'm happy we wandered in!

    Kind and attentive staff! Cute and relaxed interior, cozy place to be in after being out in fog/wind thats fs. Good chicken noodle soup, the chicken was very good dipped in their ginger-oil sauce- it was my first time seeing shredded-ginger sauce offered for a soup dish and i enjoyed it! noodles were perfect. broth was a bit salty for my taste but still yummy and comforting. i'd go back again when in the area and try their other dishes :-)

    Ended up here on a rainy day when the original place we were headed ended up being closed. I'm so glad we did. Ordered the five spice chicken noodle soup and the pho with rare beef and brisket. The broth was incredibly flavorful and the soup was packed with meat and noodles. Service was quick and the interior had plenty of tables. Will definitely be coming back!

    Eaten at Pho Ga long time ago when they first opened. Actually this is a very good neighborhood Vietnamese place. It's cute, cozy and clean inside. The portions are very generous and reasonably priced. The broth is favorable and lots of noodle and a dish of the vegetables to throw in the broth. The five spice chicken was also very tasty and good. Service was great and we were able to sit and talk and not rushed out, but we kept an eye on the customers coming in, just in case they needed our table. While we were there they had a lot of call-in take out orders to go. Great service, good food, decent prices. I will be back and want to try their other entrees.

    Cute cozy and clean inside. Friendly service. We got five spice chicken pho, shrimp garlic noodles, imperial rolls and red bean ice, and everything was really tasty. The portions are generous with reasonable prices. We'll be back.

    I've been here two times now, and their pho ga is solid. It's perfect on a cold day or when you're feeling a little under the weather. I ordered the pho ga both times. It's a simple dish with noodles, chicken, and garnishing. It's simple but delicious. The broth has good flavor (not bland at all). The chicken is tender and you get a good amount. All in all, I would come back whenever I'm craving pho ga.

    PHO GA on Noriega & 20th Avenue in the Outer Sunset was a quaint little place to drop into for a quick bite while running errands. Interior is light, bright and inviting. Greeted immediately stepping inside. Seating was plentiful since I had missed the lunch hour. I was fixated on pork chops for some reason so that's what I ordered! Hours: 10:30AM-8PM Everyday FRESH SPRING ROLLS w/shrimp, peanut dipping sauce. My go-to fav to order. Added some Siracha to the peanut sauce and it was gold! COMBO PORK CHOPS w/fresh steamed rice, Imperial roll, little green salad, fried egg, nuoc Cham dipping sauce. This was the perfect, flavorful, filling plate that hit the spot! Could use a little more char on the pork chops but that's it! Total yum! I'd come back to PHO GA again to have their namesake pho! Once I was happily chomping through my awesome pork chop combo, Noticed that a majority of diners were noshing on pho! Lol. See you there!

    Ordered takeout on Sat evening and there were a couple tables available. They had my order ready, the chicken pho is the highlight here with their tasty scallion ginger oil to pair the tender chicken with. It's a fast casual spot with quick Chinese service so don't expect much here.

    This place is amazing! The woman who took my to-go order was so sweet over the phone. Food was ready when I arrived, she was super sweet in person too. The pho was delicious! And the portions are big!! We also ordered the five spice chicken with garlic noodles. YUM!! The place is very clean, and inviting!

    I tried to call you but there is no way to do so. Got an order dropped off tonight at our building but none of the neighbors ordered it so it was a clear error. No address on the bag. I hope you can refund whoever is looking for it?

    Can you clarify who owns and runs this? Is it Vietnamese? Chinese?

    most of them, are chinese speakers. i cannot verify if they are vietnamese/ viet-chinese as well, just because most vietnamese speakers can also speak cantonese in sf.

Either line up 20 minutes early (at least and it was a Friday) or expect to wait outside for an hour. Great 80's Japanese City Pop plays overhead. I liked the ambience. Not worth traveling into the city just for this. But a fine destination if you're already near Japan Town and you plan ahead.

The soba was also delicious and paired really well with the tempura. One thing to keep in mind is the wait. The restaurant is tiny, so even on a random weekday we ended up waiting about 40 minutes. I've also heard weekend waits can easily stretch to over an hour, so definitely come prepared if you're planning to visit during peak times. Funny enough, they accidentally gave me the wrong order--but I wasn't about to complain because they gave me the more expensive fish tempura instead of the shrimp tempura I ordered. It ended up being a happy accident because I got to try even more of their menu. The fish tempura, hot soba, shrimp tempura, and handmade fish cake tempura were all delicious. I'd happily recommend any of them!

    Decided to try the Happy hour at this Japanese place and was blown away…read more Its a small place, maybe 8 tables tops squeezed into this narrow space but it was fantastic. Gretted when we entered, we slid into one the few open tables. The decor was charming, and we were quickly gretted by our server with menus and water. My sister and I split some appetizer items so we could try various items, and every single dish was a taste sensation. The gyoza was crisp on the outside while packed with a savory meat, drizzled with sauce. The Karaage was tender chicken encased in a light fried pankostyle casing, also drizzled with a sauce, and the flavor, each bite was satisfying without being too filling. The Kabocha Kor, were panko fried pumpkin patties with a tonkatsu style sauce that brought the taste buds to a more earthier place . The Tokoyaki, were tender fried octopus balls in a sauce that I would have been happy to hunker down with a large bowl of and just crush, easily my favorite bite, which is saying something as no bute was bad . We closed with an order of Hotate, which was a grilled scallop skewer. Somewhere between sea and bay scallops in size, they were an awesome cap to the dining experience. With a this, I washed it down with a peach-weizen beer which was the perfect accompaniment to the meal. Every dish was fantastic in flavor, sauces, and texture.

We started off with the Mekyabetsu (Brussels sprouts), Ba-Ra (pork belly), and Kobe (beef). The Brussels sprouts were my fav starter, and the sauce paired so well with it. The Ba-Ra was pretty good, but nothing amazing, and same for the Kobe, which I found to be a bit bland. We also split the Hokkaido Miso ramen. The broth had a great flavor, and the pork chashu was possibly the best I've ever had(!) as it was soooo tender and flavorful, and not very fatty. I did think the cauliflower left room to be desired, and kinda took away from the ramen overall. We finished our meal off with the matcha Panna cotta - this was a great dessert and wasn't too sweet ;) This place definitely seems to be pretty good at a lot of dishes, but not amazing at any single one. The vibe is great, service was great, and prices are a biiiiti steep but not unreasonable.

We ordered the galbi jjim and strawberry watermelon drink which was a decent size, not too sweet, and very refreshing. My partner's spice tolerance is pretty low so we ordered the level one spice. Unfortunately it was still too spicy for him so I double checked to make sure it was only the level one spice and they said yes. About 15 minutes later, they let us know that the food is on the house! Not what we were expecting at all since we really just wanted to enjoy the food, but it was much appreciated. They also said to let them know the next time we come back so that they can do 0.5 spice instead. Overall amazing food and amazing customer service. We are definitely coming back! Just beware if you have a low spice tolerance and let them know when you place your order!!
