Found this little hidden (literally) pho place in woodland! First off, it is a little hard to get to or see the storefront from the shopping center. You would need to park in front of the quest lab and continue to walk around the corner toward the street side where you will stumble across their sign outside. Price point for this day and age with a average pho bowl of $14 isn't bad considering they have a decent size and loads of meat! You can even add extra noodles for $1! Broth was flavorful. It's a order and take a seat type of place and they will bring out your order. All of our food came out quickly and they were nice to accommodate any extra bowls or such for the kiddies. It's not a big big place but enough to have our party of 6 just fine without any wait or anything at all which is awesome. Staff was pleasant and nice. Water was available for self serve as well. We would definitely come back when we are around the area. read more

Visited on 2/13/26, I've been to Pho Namdo before but decided to write about my recent visit! I prefer their process of dining, you walk in, order, pay, then enjoy your meal without worrying about grabbing the server's attention for the bill. It's quite efficient and allows you to enjoy your meal at your own pace without pressure! Things are very casual and homey in the restaurant, it was relaxing to come by after work to enjoy a nice, hot bowl of chicken pho during the cold weather. The pho is always quickly served and hot, the broth is delicious and flavorful, and they're always generous with the amount of chicken cuts. Definitely make a stop here if you're around when craving pho!! *__* read more

Pho Namdo - pho ga + shrimp n pork spring rolls yumm - Noodles Near Me - Woodland, California

This was recommended to me by a new coworker who lives in Woodland. What a truly hidden GEM. So hidden, I didn't know how/where to find the entrance much less where to park. Hint: find the Quest and turn right around the corner. Follow your nose to wonderful-smelling soup. Order at the counter and take a number to your table. Only one size for bowls of pho, I tried the combination #1 that had the meat ball and it came out fairly quickly. This was dee-licious! Also got a Thai iced tea to go. I will be back for another bowl and to try their spring rolls too! read more

We were craving some Vietnamese food so I looked up some spots in Woodland. This place is located in the corner facing Pioneer Road, maps were definitely inaccurate! Most of the tables were taken but we were grateful to find a booth to sit in. I want to first mention that the Vietnamese Coffee was so good! My Vietnamese boyfriend said it tasted like how his mom makes it at home. We tried their spring rolls, banh mi, and pho. The spring rolls mostly had cabbage in it with shrimp which was alright but I probably wouldn't order again, I did like the sauce though! The banh mi was also okay, on the dry side but plenty of meat inside! As for the pho we got number one and I'd rate it a 7/10 overall with the size, broth flavor, and the noodles. I did like that they were generous with the meat toppings! Will satisfy your cravings! 4/5 because we waited about 25 minutes to get our bowl of pho :( read more

Not bad for being the first pho establishment in Woodland. The Thai iced tea was just okay. It was overly sweet for my liking. I ordered the combination pho. The broth was flavorful and seasoned nicely. I love that the soup was hot unlike other establishments where it is warm. I assumed the combination consisted of tripe, which is an essential ingredient. I was mildly disappointed, although the brisket made up for it. I love the brisket as it was really tender. I will dine in again during my lunch break to satisfy my pho craving. read more

Pho Namdo - Combination - Noodles Near Me - Woodland, California

Food was surprisingly tasty. We both ordered pho dac biet, and were pleasantly surprised at how much meat they put in the bowl compared to other pho restaurants in the area, especially considering the $14 price tag. The meatballs were particularly flavorful; usually I find them rubbery and not very tasteful. I just wish they gave options for different sized bowls like other pho restaurants, as I was still hungry afterwards - the bowls feel like a "small" size at other restaurants. read more

Great experience. Note--you do need to go around from the Quest Lab (Pho Namdo's front door is not facing the parking lot) so Apple Maps is a tad confused. Staff was friendly. Service was quick. The bowls are deeper than they look so when the pho arrived I was wondering if I should order more, but it was more than enough. Broth was tasty (as was the meat). Hubby had a yummy banh mi. Will go back again when we are in the area. read more

Enjoyed the pho and tea from this spot. Staff was friendly and food was delightful. Costs were reasonable. They gave pretty good setup for to-go orders and it worked out well for the extra soup I got to take home for the family. Location is in the corner and requires you parking behind and walking around. Recommend giving it a try. Ambiance - casual and order at counter setup. read more

Pho Namdo - Menu - Noodles Near Me - Woodland, California

One of the best bowls I've had in NorCal, and definitely knocks it out of the park for spots near Davis!! Very tender brisket and beef flank (I ordered my flank on the side), and the broth is so good and savory. The service is straight--forward and fast casual, which is great if you're on the go. read more

The chicken pho is really good, i usually don't like getting meats in my pho at other pho restaurants but the chicken here is good, the thai tea is also how i like my thai tea, sweet, but it might be too sweet for people who dont like sweet drinks. The shrimp spring rolls are also so good with the sauce it's served with! read more

Pho Namdo - Pho Ga (chicken pho) and Thai Tea - Noodles Near Me - Woodland, California

My housemate took us to this place, and it really hit the spot! I ordered the #7 pho with steak & brisket, as you can see in the photo, the steak comes slightly rare, which is exactly how it should be. That way, it finishes cooking in the hot broth, keeping it tender rather than tough or overcooked. The broth was super flavorful and rich doesn't taste like those instant bases some places use. You can tell it was made low and slow with real bones and aromatics. Clean, balanced, and not overly salty. If you're looking for legit pho with quality cuts and good broth, this is definitely the place. read more

Pho Namdo - 7. Pho tai chin - Noodles Near Me - Woodland, California

Cleanliness is an issue here. I was more than halfway through my bowl of pho (#1 on the menu) when I found a nose hair or eyelash so that sucked. I noticed two employees there, the cashier/cook kept touching her face and phone and the other was sick and blowing her nose a lot. I couldn't use the spoons in the container at the table because they were coated with some yellow grime and didn't look clean. The pho itself was just alright, the broth is not as flavorful and some of the meats were too fatty. They dump a ton of green onions in there to help add flavor. You can hear them use a microwave as part of the cooking process. The Thai iced tea was also on the bland side. read more

What a find..... not an easy find!!! On my way to Vacaville from Paradise and needed to charge my car. While car was charging I started looking for places to eat. Go a craving for Pho and a his place was a 3 minute ride away. Once charge was done plugged address into GPS and was on my way. GPS brought me into a parking lot that had a nail salon, pizza place, yoga studio but no Pho Namdo. Turned around and slowly drove the store fronts again. No Pho Namdo. Thought it may have been closed and yelp hadn't been updated. Defeated I left the parking lot through a different exit, ending up behind the stores I had just drove by. Lo and behold there it was on the corner facing the street and not the parking lot. Worth the time it took me to find it. Order at the counter, take your number and have a seat. The staff is friendly and the food outstanding. The Pho broth may have been some of the best I've ever had. read more

Roaming Woodland and was hungry so we went for a hunt to get some pho. Spotted this place at the kiddy corner of the shopping enter near the light. The pho that we had was Pho Tai Nam and Pho Tom. It was delicious. Will definitely be back read more

This is my absolute favorite pho spot in the Woodland/Davis area and I am so happy to support this amazing little mom & pop shop. I have already been to Pho Namdo quite a few times and every single time their pho is a hug in a bowl. This is the kind of pho that feels so homey and the kind of pho that I aspire to make (if I ever do try my hand at it). You can tell the amount of love that is poured into every single bowl. The entrance is a bit hard to find, but follow the mouth-watering smell of boiling broth and look for a tiny sign pointing to a tinted door, and you have arrived at Pho Namdo. I like that you order before you take a seat, and their prices are very reasonable. There is only one size but there is always plenty of meat in your bowl. There are plenty of options to choose from for your meat combos and several appetizers and drinks. Both the Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee are delicious. The herbs are fresh and I like to ask for extra limes to go with my bowl. The chili oil is spicy, so definitely add that if you enjoy adding spice to your pho! Service is always fast and attentive, and there is self-serve ice water at the soda machine. While the restaurant is small, it is cozy and because it is tucked away in the corner of the strip mall, it is a pretty quiet ambiance for you to enjoy your steaming, comforting bowl. I have already brought my husband and introduced some of my friends to Pho Namdo and they have all liked it immensely. Pho Namdo is easily in my top rotation of pho places to visit and I am looking forward to eating there again in 2025 (next year is already only a few days away, crazy)! read more

Great service, great pho. Highly recommend it. Owners very friendly. Pricing is very affordable.

My go to Pho place now. I love pho. Specially when I am under the weather or just in General. I've been to all of the pho places in Davis, and I'd drive to a place if I really like it. My go to pho place before was Sit Lo in Davis but their broth doesn't tast that good now compared to when they first started. I've been going here and to Sit Lo recently and this place here got the best tasting broth for me. I come here at least 2-3 times a month! read more

Can't say enough about this place. The service is great, the food is amazing, and you can tell the owners really care about the food they're putting out. Also, super clean! #2 Beef Pho: Easily the best Pho i've ever had. The broth is amazing, the noodles are amazing, and it's all paired with super fresh ingredients. (5/5) Shrimp+Pork Spring Rolls: Fantastic! Again, everything is super fresh. The peanut dipping sauce pairs very well. (5/5) read more

5 stars all the way around!! What a joy to discover this gem in Woodland serving delicious pho and beautiful fresh spring rolls and bao buns. There were 7 people in our group and we all thoroughly enjoyed all of the varied pho dishes that we tried along with several appetizers. We all eat pho several times a month in San Francisco so we are a bit discerning when it comes to quality Vietnamese cuisine and this restaurant does not disappoint! It is run by a lovely husband and wife team that are both extremely kind and helpful. The broth is rich and deep and the quality and quantity of their meatballs and flank steak are abundant. We all look forward to visiting again on our next visit to UC Davis. read more

I come here a lot with my son, and over time this place has quietly become part of our routine. The pho is consistently comforting, clean broth, generous bowls, and the kind of food that makes you slow down without realizing it. But what really stands out to me is the people. The owners and staff always make us feel genuinely welcome, not just served. There's a warmth here that you don't find everywhere anymore. During peak hours it can get pretty busy, especially with takeout and app orders, and the wait can stretch. I totally understand why, it's clearly a spot the community loves. But even on those nights, the energy in the room is still good, and you can feel that this place means something to the people who run it. For us, it's more than just a quick meal. It's a place we actually look forward to sitting down in. And that's why we keep coming back. read more

It's a hidden gem especially located in a small city called Woodland, CA. The broth tasted like homemade. It's a family business only a daughter and a mom. Order and pay first then sit anywhere and they'll brought the food to the table. Overall great service and great food. read more

I love this spot! Very casual, but I'm glad woodland finally had a really solid pho place! I got the brisket pho and it was. Great. The broth is perfect, the meat was great. My dad got one with tendon in it and he had never had pho with tendon so that was a little more difficult to chew than he was expecting. But he said the flavors were great. We also got the pork bao buns which were very solid. You order at the counter and then seat yourself. They bring the order to your table when it's ready. Of course they bring basil and bean sprouts and limes. I truly can't express how happy I am to have a pho place in town! read more

Just left from having a dinner date with my two little boys 5 and 3. Since the moment we walked in we were greeted with a warm smile from the woman in the kitchen. The ambiance felt welcoming and kind. I asked if it was possible to get one entree pho ga for me and another full entree split in 2 for my boys. The pleasant young man went to ask and informed me that it was possible. When the food came I was surprised that they had served my boys much more than I was expecting. I am thankful for the kindness! My boys enjoyed their dinner and I am glad we chose pho namdo for dinner tonight! Thank you for the great service! Highly recommend and will be coming back :) read more

Amazing pho! Hard to find because gps takes you into this huge strip mall and you see all the businesses labeled but this one! You need to look and go to the far left and around the corner. You can smell pho once around corner. Menu very simple. Big portions, the broth is super rich and flavorful. No need to add anything to it. read more

Pho Namdo - Beef Pho - Noodles Near Me - Woodland, California

Pho Namdo is THE BEST pho place in the Davis/Woodland area! This is mom n pop shop serves authentic pho, spring rolls, and Vietnamese coffee & Thai tea at affordable prices!!! Located off Gibson Road (on the way to Costco) in a safe and quiet shopping center, this restaurant is a must-try. I tried the pho dac biet (beef pho w/all meat cuts) and my partner got the pho ga (chicken pho). I only had time to take a picture of mine before we devoured both of our bowls. We got ours to-go. I've tried all 3 pho places in Davis and they're all pricey for what you get and the pho broth/ingredients aren't as good as Namdo or other places in Sacramento. Pho Namdo is legit. The owners (a vietnamese couple) are super friendly and the restaurant interior is clean and updated! Plenty of places to sit if you dine in and the interior is very modern. We will definitely be back!! Note: The front door is located off the corner of Pioneer and Branigan. You can still park in the main parking lot! Just walk to that corner to enter pho bliss. read more

Pho Namdo - Pho dac biet - Noodles Near Me - Woodland, California

I visited the restaurant 3 times in one week--in my defense, I love pho when I'm feeling under the weather, so it is amazing to have a wonderful pho restaurant in town. My first visit I ate in. I was a little discouraged to see only one size, and indeed I wasn't able to finish the entire bowl because it was such a generous portion. The broth was clean and flavorful, and all of the aromatics were fresh. We also ordered the BBQ pork bao buns (a little small) and the dumplings which were totally fine--honestly, no wonder I didn't finish my soup! They didn't have many tables for larger groups, but patrons seem to come and go quickly, so you can wait for a bigger table. The dining area is small, so I imagine it may be hard to find a seat during a busy meal time. When I was feeling sick later in the week, I ordered chicken pho twice. I really wish they offered delivery, but I was luckily able to get help with pick-up because I felt too poorly to drive. The first order was packed perfectly and not a drop was spilled. The second, not so much. They're still new and probably working on perfecting their packing methods. I think putting the soup container into it's own tied plastic bag might help, or at least prevent the broth was soaking everything in the rest of the bag. As for the chicken pho, I loved the slightly black-peppery flavor and it was SO satisfying when I had my sore throat. I also love take-out pho because I can just make up a bowl the size of my appetite and save the rest. It's going to be a serious problem for my wallet when they start offering delivery. I definitely foresee a weekly pho habit in my future. read more

Yay! Woodland has a pho shop!!!! The pho was delicious! Noodles were cooked perfectly, the selection of meats were on point, and the toppings included all the usual suspects--mint, Thai basil, onions, hoisin, and sriracha. We also tried the fresh rolls (yum) and the Vietnamese coffee. Too sweet for me, but still tasty and probably exactly as it should be. The place was PACKED right after opening on a Sunday evening. We will certainly be back! read more
