    Steak 01. Pho Dac Biet

    My son never had Pho before, so I brought him here per yelp reviews. Got inside and it was very clean. Just a few people at tables. A man greeted us and seated us right away, he took our drink order and gave us menus. We both got the round steak Pho. It was so good! Broth was delicious, the Thai basil was beautifully fragrant and the bean sprouts were so crisp. It was moderately priced. Definitely will go back and try another.

    Service could use a lot of help here - pressuring me to buy pho instead of answering my questions about their menu is not what I need. No smile and nor asking how our food is nor caring to properly clean the table and floors add to the dissatisfaction. Lastly the several dishes and soups like Bun Bo Hue, Bun Cha Ca and rice dishes were not worth a return trip. I went the first time and somehow forgetting I went there already ended up there a second time only to relive the horrible experience!

    This is my go-to pho restaurant! I recommend trying the Bun Bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup), Pho, or Com thit nuong (rice plate). I always get confused between com sườn nướng and cơm thịt nướng but I definitely recommend getting the thit nuong for sure! The suon nuong can be dry and not the best... Like other small Viet restaurant you have to wave the waiters down, ask for what you want, and pay at the cash register. They play Vietnamese music which is kind of a vibe for me and there's lots of Vietnamese folks that eats here! I recommend trying it out.

    One of the best bun Bo hue in town. I've been coming here for many years. The food is good but the service is like any typical pho places, very fast pace and do not check on you. You'll have to flag someone down if you need anything. I haven't dine in since the pandemic and was super excited to dine in. It's a super busy complex so it's hard to find parking. Interesting that they sell sticky rice on the side. We bought one to take home and my two year old niece loves it.

    18. Bun Bo Hue Came here on a Monday around noon time and it wasn't very busy. We had empty tables around us. We all ordered the Bun Bo Hue. The portion was just right for me. Normally I have a hard time finishing my bowl. Only complaint is the porks feet were tough to bite through. Other meats were ok. Wished there was Viet ham in it. The Broth tastes good. I like to eat my bbh with pho noodles. Service was fast. Staff doesn't wear mask. I felt a bit anxious when our waiter took our order and stuff.

    First visit here since the weather been much cooler and first thing in the morning when you want to sip on something warm calls for BUN BO HUE! With a large dining area tables are set up and photos of menu items on the wall they open at 8am (check updates) dine in or take out. I ordered the Bun bo hue which had a nice spicy broth and thick noodles to slurp with topped with fresh herbs and thin slices of beef. I ordered a Large to go and still it was a huge portion nicely packed. They also have on the menu rice plates and pho. Very Tasty!

    My wife was craving pho for breakfast, but it was almost lunch time by the time we got here. I had seafood noodle soup and my wife had Bun Bo Hue. The food was delicious, but service was not. There was a waitress on her phone all the time. Had to go up front just to ask for more water and a fork for my wife. At the time I was about to pay for the food, the lady told me the debit machine wasn't working. Had to travel to my bank to get the cash to pay for the food. Signs need to be posted if cash is only accepted

    Stopped by since Lollibowl was closed. I haven't been here in probably over a decade! It was very nostalgic walking in, because everything looked exactly like it did years ago. It wasn't as busy on a Sunday afternoon surprisingly. This place has always been known for their BBH. If you like spice, you gotta get that. You can always eat a Vietnamese bowl of soup on a hot day. I appreciated the fresh greens and herbs that came with it; none of the leaves were wilted or old. The eggrolls (4) were kind of skimpy, like a kids meal with only two leaf lettuce. The pho dac biet was a bit disappointing compared to the BBH because it very bland. The flavor in the broth only sat on top. As you take more bites, the flavor went away. So just stick with the BBH!

    Have a craving for Bun Bo hue .. my date likes this place .. but it's it ok fir me.. it's a different kinda of style of bun Bo hue.. Not sure what region in Vietnam .. I only like it with their toasted shrimp pasted mix .. without it then it'll be too plain. But I know lots of people like this style.. so give it a try when you're in the area. I have tried different things from this place.. it's Juz alright.

    Diane S.

    It was ok. We used to go here all the time when they first opened 20+ years ago. BBH was decent, pho was not hitting the spot my other half said. Thought we'd come back and try it out with all the raving reviews of their BBH, ughh need to find a new spot with good BBH.

    Salty over priced pho. They pushed a bone up charge, but it was chewy and what they had used for the cooking the broth- not worth it.

The location was a bit odd, as there were barely any other businesses nearby. There is street parking that you can pay for. It's a fairly small restaurant. We were were seated pretty quickly. Service was very friendly. I would say that portions were pretty reasonable. Things we ordered: -Pineapple fried rice: Very fragrant with the char and flavorful. Seasoned very well. We opted for mild spice on this. I would order this again. -Chicken pad thai: Done very well! Some places the pad thai is too sweet, but this one was very balanced and had a good tamarind flavor. Medium spicy was a bit on the spicy side, but perfect for me! Would order this again. -Duck larb: Unique, but I couldn't tell it was duck. My partner enjoyed this more than I did. The portion for the larb was on the smaller side and it came with some lettuce, radish, carrots, cucumbers. -Mee kati ground pork: A very unique dish that not many Thai restaurants seem to have, in which it came with noodles, and a variety of toppings like beans sprouts, lettuce, green beans, peanuts, and cilantro. It came with a fermented curry gravy, and it delicious! I would totally order this again. -Green Thai tea: Quite fragrant and not too full on half and half like some other places have it. It's also not as sweet as another local Thai restaurant. I would actually order this again. -Classic Thai tea: Strong Thai tea flavor, also not too sweet. Overall, Hiso was a great Thai/Lao restaurant and I would totally come back and recommend this place!

The red curry was really good imo but my husband said it could have been thicker and more flavorful. The pad thai was decently spicy for a medium rating.

We also ordered the Tum Luang Pra Bang, green papaya salad with fermented fish sauce. I will say, the execution and the quality of ingredients were superb, I personally couldn't get past the flavor, but my mom, a stronger SEA woman, loved it! The staff was very nice and polite. The ambiance was very cute, gave cafe/small restaurant vibes. I have been in the area for awhile and this place has been a revolving door of restaurants. I hope this one sticks!

I also always take friends and family visiting here and it never disappoints. The yelp wait is pretty accurate, so I recommend joining before you head over to avoid having to wait there. Last time I went and checked, it was about an hour wait so I joined it and did some grocery shopping nearby before going there. I've had everything on the menu so it's up to the point where it depends on what I'm feeling. Everything on the menu is different so it's not too hard to choose. If I want something soupy, I'll go for the crab udon, if I want rice, the fried rice, something full of flavor, the Banh Mi Chao, something light, then the Banh Khot (good option since they don't make Banh Xeo on the weekends). The last time I went 07/04/2026, I noticed on the wall they were having a special, Bun Bo Hue, which I love when I go to pho restaurants. I'm not sure if it's new or I've been blind this whole time, but it did not disappoint. It was full of flavor, and it was nice that they put the spicy paste on the side for you to adjust the spiciness. I love spicy foods but one of my friends do not, so it was easy for us to enjoy our meal. It was also not just a spicy sauce to add; there was a past along with it. Shrimp paste maybe? I didn't ask, but it enhanced the flavor, so I recommend using it. Their sister restaurant, Me's Kitchen is next on my list to try. Can't wait!

An order of bánh khọt came with 7 pancakes and a side of veggies and fish sauce. The pancakes were really crispy, and they were delicious, especially wrapped with the veggies. I just wished they gave more lettuce or at least allowed refills. More veggies was an extra charge. The xôi thập cẩm and bánh mì chảo were also good. The cà phê dừa was blended so it was more smoothie-like. The sweet coconut balanced out the strong coffee. Overall, we had a great and filling lunch. The restaurant was modern, polished, and inviting.

We did our best "research project" and ordered everything our table could justify: Thai iced coffee, coconut canopy salad, pad see ew and pad Thai with pork belly, sunset curry with tilapia, and mango sticky rice with ice cream. For science, obviously. Thai Time should put a warning label on their Thai iced coffee. One sip through each layer and the conversation stopped. We woke up. The taste buds clocked in for work. The brain sent out the announcement: "Cancel all distractions -- apparently dinner has plans for us." Good thing we listened. Thammasorn then proceeded to take us on a full Thai flavor adventure. This wasn't just dinner. This was a carefully organized attack on our ability to say, "No thanks, I'm full." The coconut canopy salad started fresh and bright, the noodles brought the comfort, the pork belly brought the celebration, the sunset curry with tilapia brought the "wait, everyone try this" moment. And the mango sticky rice with ice cream showed up at the end like a victory parade. I always read the bad reviews because I'm fascinated by the rare human ability to find sadness while surrounded by curry, noodles, and people being nice to you. They are to be safely ignored. Our experience? Five stars out of 10. Beautiful flavors, warm service, and that special energy you only get when the people behind a place actually care. Thank you, Thammasorn and Thai Time. Sacramento is lucky to have you.
