    Pho #6 and #7
    Jennifer R.

    Food was so yummy, probably best pho I've had! I like that they take your order when you walk in so service is pretty quick. All the staff is super welcoming, friendly and attentive. Also love that it's family owned :)

    pho and thai tea
    Alana E.

    Wow! This spot is really a hidden gem. I came by on a weekday afternoon for an early dinner. The restaurant is clean and has a relaxing atmosphere. You order at the counter and your food is brought to you by the employees, which is nice. Service was prompt and my food came out quickly. I got a bowl of pho and a Thai tea. The Thai tea was super creamy and refreshing, but the real star of the show is the pho. They load it up with a TON of meat and the broth is flavorful but light. The veggies taste super fresh and the noodles were a good texture, not too chewy. They also put a lot more pepper in the soup than expected, which helps to enhance the other flavors! I will say that the entrance can be hard to find, as it is on the Pioneer side of the building and does not face the parking lot. I'll definitely be back!

    Vietnamese Coffee

    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 :(

    Pho #1, so good its gone!

    I ordered a extra noodle pho #1 w/ a squirt soda and it was amazing. The broth was very flavorful. Hidden gem. Lots of protein for the #1. I miss the old mom and pop pho places like this! It should be a place you go to! It's quality noodle and quality meat balls. I need this business to stay so please go and support this flavorful pho! Owner was nice and served us as well!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    This place is so good! You do not need to add anything in your Pho but just the chili oil. Their meat & noodle portions are perfect. They are not cheap with their meet. Price is affordable and service was fast.

    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)!

    Pho Ga (chicken pho) and Thai Tea

    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!

    Hidden gem in woodland tbh. Fire pho I never have anything to complain about. I've been there many time and the service is always amicable. Their Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee is so good, better than most tea/coffee shops tbh. The ambiance is nice, small, and clean.

I went from a thin top to a medium weight sweater. We arrived in Davis I grabbed my jacket to pair with my sweater. Today was a day spent exploring Davis to see the California Conference for the Advancement of Ceramic Arts (CCACA). What a great Conference. We come each year for this Conference and explore Davis every time we are here. After exploring the first building of the show it was coming on time to eat. We looked around the current shopping center and my husband didn't see anything he was craving. He said we'll go more into town and look for a noodle place. He said he remembered one from our last visit, down one of the alleys. Walking up the street we saw a couple of advertisements. A sandwich board was on the sidewalk for Davis Noodle CIty, the exact place we were looking for. The little Noodle Shop in the alley. We weaved through the other businesses, past the dumpling restaurant, past the outdoor seating and to the front door of the Davis Noodle City Restaurant. The out door seating looked really welcoming, but it was chilly out so we opted for eating inside with the other table that was occupied. There were 3 parties eating outside when we arrived. When we walked inside we were greeted and told to take any table. We choose a table in the corner. The menus were under the glass table top, keeping it clean and easy to read. Each place setting had its own copy of the menu. After looking at the menu, remembering what was offered on the sandwich board in front, and cross referencing it with Yelp Reviews we started ordering. We opted for the Five Spice Beef Noodles, and I asked if that was a good option and she said it was their top seller. The Yelp Reviews were only ok for that dish, but I took our chances. The second dish we ordered was the Dan Dan Noodles She tried to upscale us to the one with vegetables, but that dish was a cold dish so we when for the standard Dan Dan Noodles. Both dishes came out quickly. The Dan Dan noodles were not spicy as I anticipated, which was good, I wasn't really looking for spicy. I liked the flavor and realized that if you mixed it up there is a sauce on the bottom that is really tasty. Dan Dan Noodles ($8.25 a steal) is a solid dish and I highly reccomend it. It's a great bowlful of noodles. If you are hopping for other ingredients you are out of luck, it's 100% noodles with a sprinkling of peanuts on top and a sauce on the bottom. The Five Spice Beef Noodle Soup ($12.75)was as described in the reviews. It comes with American Broccoli and carrots. The beef is so good it melts in your mouth. The broth is minimal and lacked flavor. I'd think that it's advertised as Five Spice that it would have more flavor. I don't reccomend it if you are looking for a strong flavor. If you are looking for great meat, that melts in your mouth, but is also a little fatty then you have the perfect dish. Both dishes came with fresh noodles, none of those dried and rehydrated noodles that some places serve. The noodles on both dishes were different and pleasant. I highly reccomend their fresh noodles. Customer service was good. She came to check up on us and was pleasant. Parking is street parking. And they have a bathroom on site that is clean and well stocked.

The meat was fully cooked, flavorful, and both of ours had a decent amount of meat. The fresh noodles were great and light, it didnt feel like I was forcing myself to eat noodles I didnt like.
