We were seated quickly. The decor is welcoming in comparison to the location in San Jose in Little Saigon. The food was on point. Although, I wished the tomato rice had a bit more flavor. The steak was tender though! We really liked the fact that the sauces were in a container versus the regular squeeze bottles like a majority of pho places. We'll be back! Update: 6/23/25 They updated the menu - see pix. Def way better & more appealing to the eye: vivid pix & the colors. The Vietnamese ube coffee was delish. 10/10 S2 the roasted chicken: 10/10 Minh, our server, 10/10. Here's why: I mentioned at the end that my daughter didn't like the kid's meatball pho; I tasted it & it had an odd flavor. He brought it to the attention of the owners/chefs? In any case, they took it off the bill. Thank you. read more

came here w a big group - can't speak to how quickly seating happened bc we actually made a reservation ordering was a bit hey since we had so many people, & everyone forgot what we all ordered lol got the #1 combo one without onions - 7/10 portion was but, lots of meat so that added a point, but noodles were way too soft & falling apart when I tried to chopstick them and just turning into paste in my mouth no review for the steak & fries cus I didn't even know they had that on the menu, but my friend got it & it was interesting to look at? fries looked a lil funny imo note: parking can be quite difficult, esp on a friday read more

Bun bo hue was incredibly salty. Couldn't eat it. Returned it. The beef stew was greasy.

My fave spot for pho in the Bay Area! The broth isn't sweet like other places and is so well balanced! I also highly recommend the beef with tomato rice. I've never had viet tomato rice and it was a life changer! The service is always quick and this particular location was very clean! read more

We tried Pho Ha Noi in Milpitas today and I am in two minds whether to give it four stars or three. Maybe 3.5? Let's start with the ambience - instantly welcoming and gorgeous interiors. They've put a lot of thought into this. Full marks there. Service? Fantastic. Hoang was at our table immediately. He was friendly and prompt with the order, patient throughout the ordering process and I think the food was at our table before we could blink! LOL. So full marks there too. We shared a Chicken Thigh Pho and for appetizers we had the Crab Rolls. I wanted to try the egg noodles in the Pho but the regular noodle was the only option left. Next hiccup was the soup temperature. I was expecting it to be hot but it was borderline lukewarm. So that put me off a little. The Pho itself was delicious, though. The broth was flavorful especially with the sauces, the chicken was tender, the noodles were well cooked. So 4/5 on the Pho. The crab appetizer was a big let-down for us. It was way too oily and even flavor-wise it was just okay. So that was a bummer. The restaurant has 5 different locations across the Bay area so I am sure I'll give it another try. Just for the Pho! read more

First time ordering from this location, got a beef stew to go. Came home and found 2 out of 5 pieces of meat was just a big lump of fat and some kind of tendon I can't chew through. The bread that came with it is also dinner roll sized.. read more

Pho Ha Noi - Beef stew to go : 2 out of 5 pieces of beef was all fat and unchewable - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Pho Ha Noi is known for its comforting, good-for-the-soul pho broth! Ali Wong even claims it as her favorite. However, for the San Jose location, Milpitas is not bad, but it's still not as good as San Jose's broth. We came around 6pm on a Friday, and although it was pretty busy, they sat us right away! The service staff weren't friendly at the time and I honestly think it was just because they felt the need to rush. I love the tropical vibe of the restaurant and that they keep it pretty clean. I appreciate that they provide new butcher paper for every table. The utensils and flatware were not oily or greasy like in other pho restaurants. We ordered their Spring Special - Beef short rib and steak pho for ~$15! Such a good deal and don't forget to get the FRESH noodles! The fresh, flat noodles are my favorite! The perfect texture and they give a goood portion. Also loved that there was SO MUCH MEAT! The broth was just a litttle too light for my liking! read more

Fast service and yummy food. I ordered a number 1, pho ga and spring rolls. I love the decor. I'll come back here again!!! So many foods to try read more

Service is always quick here, they always seem to have a bustling restaurant with a wide fan base. The menu ranges with tasteful drinks & plates that taste just as expected. Vietnamese food is wholesome. The restaurant is a home feel & it's perfect for this location. The plants that surround the place make you feel like you're not in Milpitas. read more

The restaurant was open and inviting. It seems like they can add on at least 10 more tables to their capacity. We were seated right away. Parking was not an issue because we came today seconds after they open. I really love the location at the Grand Century Mall and have been wanting to try this location. I suggested this place (or any place of her choice) to my little sister since her birthday was 2 weeks ago. Like the other location, the menu offers a variety... but this place lacks so many. First hot sauce and hoisin sauce were not at each table. We were given a small bowl of both sauce but really, do I need to ask for 5-8 bowls because what we were given was definitely not enough. My sister and i like our broth spicy. We did ask for more hot sauce but we were given a small side (squirt) of hot sauce and hoisin sauce which we did not even touch. The appetizer came after our pho which was ok. The imperial egg rolls are crispy and pretty good but 2 for one piece of lettuce sort of put me off. I don't remember what my sister ordered but I ordered the pho dac biet. The bowl had generous amounts of meat and it was tender. I did opt for fresh noodles. The broth lacked depth and beefy flavor. It was underwhelming. Maybe we came on a bad day. Not sure if I will return. I would pick the Grand Century location over this one. read more

We go to this location because it's easier to park than the Cupertino location. This place has plenty of seating, although there can be a wait on weekends. Located near the Great Mall, this restaurant is in a strip plaza off of Abel between Montague Expressway and Tasman. Soup and rice dishes are tasty and consistent each time we visit. Service is good AND their bathrooms are clean. read more

Food was good, pretty inside and felt spacious, the service was the highlight. Very nice staff, we spilled our water on our table when we were ordering and within 20 seconds there were three people over cleaning, and apologetic even though it wasn't their fault. Food also came really fast, we were in a rush, so that was a bonus. read more

I'm a huge fan of Vietnamese food, so when @phohanoibayarea opened in Milpitas, I knew I had to check it out! First up was the Cubed Steak with Tomato Rice -- the meat was tender, and the rice packed so much flavor. Solid 4.5/5. Next, I tried the Beef Pho Combo, which came with generous portions of beef. The broth was rich, savory, and absolutely delicious. Pro tip: always go for the fresh noodles -- they make all the difference. Lastly, I had their Summer Special: Grilled Pork and Egg Roll with Vermicelli. The egg rolls were perfectly crispy, and the grilled pork was beautifully marinated. A fantastic meal all around!

Pho Ha Noi - Pho dac biet. - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Food: we had the monthly special beef pho. The one I ordered is Pho with 8 Oz of rib and raw steak. The meat was nice and tender and the soup is flavorful as well. Don't recommend to people who don't prefer bones even the meat texture is soft and the bone comes off easily. Service: we were at a sofa and chair combination seating area. The sofa wasn't wiped thoroughly and even we got their attention, it was a not taken care well so I still needed to wipe it again. Ambiance: the decoration is so much better and more comfortable than their San Jose or Cupertino location. read more

Pho Ha Noi is OK! It's very popular, even on a weekday for lunch - I feel that it's always packed. Some of my friends love it, but it's just average in my opinion. Broth isn't mind blowing and the portion sizes are on the smaller side, but the meat that they use is very good. I wish they would be more generous with noodles and even condiments (barely a handful of bean sprouts, basils, and tiny dip cup of siracha/hoisin sauce). My other gripe is that they always seem to be out of something. My last visit, they were "out" of bun bo hue at 12:30pm...seems unlikely! But it's tough when you have a craving for a certain dish and it is not available so you have to settle for something else. Anyways service is great though. Restaurant is clean inside and nicely laid out but the parking lot is a mess. It's in an oddly shaped strip mall and the spaces are EXTRA TINY. Safest place to park is the corner by the street since there can actually fit cars lol read more

Service was great. Food was so good that I'd go back here again and again. Ambiance, clean and spacious. Ate here for lunch, parking was good. Let's eat! read more

Pho Ha Noi - Best crispy rice with chicken I ever had. So yummy. - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

The overall experience was extremely disappointing. Me and my friend got there right as they opened at 5pm, and I asked for cilantro in my pho and they said they had ran out for the day. But the restaurant just opened... I also saw another review that said this branch has a lack of ingredients. We both got P4 which was brisket and flank pho and there was only one piece of brisket and 80% noodles. The broth was also super salty. I picked regular noodles and when it came out there was a mixture between fresh (thicker cut noodles) and the regular one. The staff does not make rounds and fill water at all. During the whole experience they only filled our water once and it was because I had asked them. They never came to check up on any tables, we thought it was just us but when we observed around, they were not attentive in general. At other pho places they usually ask me how the food is and if I need anything etc.. But here we only saw our server when they sat us down. Even when we finished eating we waited 10 minutes for the check. I would save your time and money for another restaurant. Definitely would not recommend read more

We had a wonderful dinner here with our group of four. Everyone loved what they ordered, especially the pho. I went with the Grilled Pork and Crab Roll Vermicelli: the portion was huge and everything tasted fresh and flavorful. Our waitress, Anh, was so attentive and made the experience even better. Definitely a great spot to check out for authentic Vietnamese food! read more

They are expanding. Quality still good despite growth. We usually go to the Cupertino location. But good here too. Wife had short rib pho, I had the short rib beef stew, with a baguette. Super Outstanding flavor. Definitely going to get it again. Wife's Pho very good too . Only service hiccup - both orders did not arrive at the same time. Rating like 4-1/2. read more

This is the latest of the fast-growing mom-and-pop pho shop. When you walk in you'll be stunned by the classy floral and imperial interior. With this much attention to the look, which pho places are rarely known for, my expectations went up. I've been to one of the other Pho Ha Noi locations in Little Saigon, and while it's good, it's not a go-to, and I left this place with the same overall conclusion. First up, I had the spring rolls in pretty much every fresh form. They were undeniably beautiful and I also came away impressed with the flavor of each along with the different sauces. There was pork, Vietnamese sausage, and shrimp, and I appreciated each variation. The pho was fine. I wasn't crazy about it. The main reason I came away disappointed was because I thought I knew what I wasn't a fan of with the other bowls I've had at other Pho Ha Noi locations. They typically over sprinkle green onions into the bowl, so I asked for less. I couldn't tell if what I had was better, but I just wasn't crazy with both the broth nor the noodles. I will say they have some quality beef though. That said, it's not bad. Places like New Pho Saigon, Pho San Jose, and Vpho just offer a better bowl to my tastes. read more

5 stars for the crispy sticky rice chicken! Get the crispy sticky rice chicken (S4). It's so good! The menu does say that there is a 10 min wait to make this dish though. And make sure to ask for extra sauce cuz the rice can be bland without sauce The pho is fine. Kim long is better but they also ran out of fresh noodles so I can't speak on that. The pho came out super quickly and they provide you with a small saucer of hoisin and sriracha (although the sriracha was a very orange-colored version). This was my second time here and what was fun is they had an autumn specials menu. I didn't end up ordering any of them but it was fun to see, so I'm not only coming here when I crave pho or the sticky rice. read more

The pho was good! I've been to Pho Hanoi a few times, and while the flavors are good, my recent visit was a bit disappointing. My soup arrived not hot enough, and I had to ask for another bowl just to cook the meat properly. The staff was polite and accommodated my request, but it slowed down the meal. The food itself is tasty, but I hope they pay more attention to serving the soup at the proper temperature. read more

Service ‍‍‍ We went right before closing time and the were able to accommodate 18 people, so had limited menu items. As soon as we ordered, it was super quick arrive and delivery with pho that came out right away -- super impressive. The Taste Food was top notch, we had pho, chicken wings. All really yummy. You def can smell the pungent aroma of fish oil in the chicken which was sweet. Serving sizes are generous. Ambiance Very nice venue and plenty of seating. Verdict ‍‍‍ Definitely coming here again and other locations I have heard about, and try the rice plate and vermicelli options. read more

The pho is pretty okay. The meat is of decent quality and the broth is good but one of my main issues is how easy the noodles lost their chewiness and became soggy. I feel like a lot of people overhype Pho Ha Noi but I'm just here to say that it's good but not the extent people say. I wish to give it a 3.5/5 but I'd rather just round up. read more

The broth was very rich, and the quality of the meat was premium. Would definitely come again! read more

I like coming here because it is clean, spacious, and service is great. I went to the original location and this one is better in terms of ambience and service. They get pretty busy even with a line up right before opening for dinner but the restaurant is huge so seating shouldn't be a problem especially with large groups. The pho bowl is pretty big and it's only one size. The broth is light and not greasy as some other places. I also ordered the fried lemongrass chicken wings. They tasted great but looked weird, long and skinny and sad to say not much meat in it. I'd like to see a chicken cutlet rice option and not just pork like some of the other restaurants. The spring roll combo is great, different spring rolls with different sauces. read more

Been to a few Pho Ha Noi locations and this one is the closest to my house. They seem to be the same. Haven't had the BBH yet until today. It's pretty in taste and lots of meat for the ribs. They only have 1 option for BBH so it's not the typical BBH you would get at other places. It's not as spicy as I like it but you can ask for more Sate. Lunch the is packed so there will be a little wait. The place is clean and the service is good. Would come back and try other items on the menu as I see they have a few new items. read more

Came here for a solo lunch today, and am thoroughly full with super yummy Vietnamese food!!! I've been to a couple other locations- but this one is by far the best I've had. The service is top notch AND the food is better! They are also consistent with the preparation of their broth which is a huge plus. I ordered: P2 Beef pho- their beef is amazing which makes their broth amazing. Crab imperial rolls- yummy and crispy Whole steamed chicken- the meat mouthfeel is really good. Super juicy and moist, glistening with just the right amount of fat. Start with a good chicken- then prepare it well- and you can't go wrong. A+ By far, service here is amazing. Danny was my server today. He was attentive and very friendly. Like genuinely friendly. He made the whole eating experience very lovely, checking in with me, bringing me extra mint I requested for my crab imperial rolls, and bringing me extra sauce and Togo containers for my steamed chicken. I also noticed he kept busy during his downtime/ constantly checking everyone's waters and refilling them, while organizing the waitstaff station. Also, I came here for a bday lunch earlier this week with a girlfriend of mine. They let us cut the cake after our meal and had their robot waiter play happy birthday! Very nice touch. Five stars all the way! read more

Pho Ha Noi - P4 highly recommend - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

It's almost there for me, like 3.5 overall - and ofc I'm being a bit tough bc the OG Vietnam Town location still slaps so much harder... AND to be honest, I'd prob. end up driving there if I'm already heading through Milpitas (ALTHOUGH the parking situation might make me reconsider LOL). This location is newer and located in a smaller plaza, which I actually like since it's less busy. Although parking can also get a bit complicated here now. Regardless - this location is much more larger, cleaner, calmer, and just easy overall. Staff is super nice and very attentive as well and there's usually not a crazy wait/line. Now, in the end - it really then just comes down to the food - so let's break it down: (1) Imperial rolls app - good overall, it's a mixture of crab and pork meat with a prominent seafood taste which I like personally but others in my party did not. The exterior is nice/crispy & it does come with all the great herbs/noodz for an epic lettuce wrap + dip. (2) Crispy Chicken and rice - the honey roasted chicken is AMAZING here! Actually more crispy than the OG location. Flavor is lightly sweet and savory, while the rice is super crunchy as well (personally prefer the tomato rice instead). (3) Beef Pho - this was what fell a little short overall and sadly one of the main reasons I come to Pho Ha Noi. The broth flavor was a bit lighter compared to the other place, although the amount of herbs were the same which I loved (esp. green onions). I've gotten both regular noodles and fresh noodles here and both times were just overcooked and way too soft - def. wasn't good texture. (4) Egg Coffee - tasty overall and would order again, the coffee was strong which I liked but there was just a bit too much egg/cream. Overall - I would def. go back if around the area. It seems likely that the restaurant has improved since I've been there, which was from grand opening months. read more
