I'm glad they offer vegetarian options here there are three in total. The server recommended the Veggie Garlic Noodles, which is what I tried. I found the flavor to be quite mild, without a strong garlic taste. However, I appreciated the inclusion of tomatoes and broccoli. The restaurant itself is clean and bright, which made for a pleasant dining experience. read more

My family frequently visits Pho Now since they're broth has been pretty solid and where its the only pho place my little one enjoys. They are finally (available) serving the beef rib that has been on their menu since open at $12. Kind of expensive, but it's well cooked that the meat just slides off the bone. I was most impressed today at the chewy and buoyancy of the pho noodles. Just perfect. The new drink on the menu, coconut juice with chia seeds, was simple and refreshing.With their recent menu updates, prices across all items also increased, unfortunately. read more

Took mom and brother to have Vietnamese for breakfast. Mom had the house phone and brother and I had the pork shrimp eggroll vermicelli bowl. Mom said soup was great our noodle bowl was good but for me the grilled items were not hot and didn't have the bbq flavor that I expecting where the juices flow down to the noodles. Other wise presentation and size was good. I also ordered shaking beef and beef short ribs(aka galbi) dishes to go. I can't really give accurate review on it as husband and son had it later in evening when it was all cold. Only complaint was they were expecting tomato rice, but could be my fault not asking if it's an option. Because we were so early there was no line and service was good. Even a robot to serve your drinks. I think I will need to give place another try to be sure of my assessment. read more

My first time here and it didn't disappoint! It's in the same plaza as Cha Cha Sushi, Egghead, Tastea, and Aqui's. The place itself is very spacious. Service is really attentive and polite. I went here with my parents and we got a variety of items to try. A large Pho dac biet -- the broth was super flavorful and there were lots of noodles and meat. Bun tom thit nuong cha Gio (vermicelli with grilled pork, shrimp, eggrolls) -- packed with meat. They are generous with the side of nuoc mam. Suong bò nuong + trung (grilled rice plate with grilled beef and egg) -- came out sizzling hot. Good portion size. Cha gio (eggrolls) -- it's on the smaller size but it's pretty flavorful and crispy! Nem nuong cuon (grilled pork sausage spring rolls) -- my fave appetizer. The dipping sauce was a great pairing. I asked for more of this sauce but they didn't have any?? They asked if I was ok with peanut sauce instead, although I didn't mind much but would have preferred the original sauce with the nem nuong cuon. I'd order this again. For drinks: Kumquat iced tea with salted plum -- very citrusy, salty, and sweet all at the same time. Salted plum soda -- Interesting flavor. Refreshing tho. I would revisit! read more

Pho Now is located in the Waterford Plaza Center next to Tastetea and Aqui's. Plenty of parking available. The restaurant has a lot of character and whimsical/playful decor. House music is playing throughout the restaurant. They have 3 LCD TVs. Two separate men and women restrooms. The service is friendly and polite. Pho Dac Biet (LG): rice noodles with filet mignon steak, beef ball, well done brisket, flank, tendon, and tripe (4/5). The soup came out piping hot and it was a huge bowl! The broth was flavorful, and you could really taste the cardamon, star anise, etc. A great tasting bowl of Pho. Vietnamese Ice Coffee (3/5). Strong, bold flavor with carmel-y finish. Though, it had too much ice. Come support your local business. read more

WoW ! Probably the best Pho anywhere in San Jose, this place was incredible. I was driving down Capitol on my way to my usual pho place when I saw the sign for this spot and decided to try it since it was closer than the other place. I'm glad I did because the place is my new favorite pho place. Good polite service, very clean and and they served up a beef rib pho that'll knock your socks off. In their menu they wrote that they serve high quality food because they care for your health, well they weren't kidding that was great quality beef rib, and a fantastic broth. I'm gonna be there alot. The other pho restaurants in San Jose just got put on notice because this place just just raised the bar, by alot! read more

It's pouring rain outside so a hot bowl of pho is in order. Decided to give Pho Now near our house a try. It's located in a pretty populated plaza with lots of parking. My first initial thought was so big and spacious the restaurant was. We came for dinner on a Wednesday at 6pm and was seated right away. Ordered pretty quickly. The robot brought out drinks out (so cool!!). I ordered rare steak (on the side always because I don't like my steak too cooked in the hot broth) with meatballs and fresh noodles. The bowl was so big filled with lots of broth. Broth was flavorful and I love that they didn't skimp on the green onions and cilantro. Bf got the chicken pho and he enjoyed his as well. Chicken wasn't too dry. Happy we found a good pho restaurant near us for when we're craving a hot bowl of noodle soup. read more

Food has always been consistently good here. I've been coming since they first opened, and for a long time I was here almost every week. Usually before or after my father's infusions, so this spot holds a lot of memories for me. The pho broth always stands out, you can really taste the depth of the spices and the cafe sua da is honestly one of the best around on the go. It ain't that powder coffee for sure. The owner is almost always here whenever I come in with my lady, well if it's her I'm guessing. I think that's a big reason the quality stays so consistent. A lot of places start off strong, then fall off when the owner steps away to let someone else run it, but that's not the case here. Overall, this place is solid and always worth coming back to. Also, me and my lady have a funny joke we call her Five Spice because of her short red curly hair, same style as Ice spice she rockin iit tho . She lowkey celebrity here read more

We came in around 8:30 PM on a Saturday night and were immediately greeted and seated--no wait, which was a pleasant surprise. Fresh infused water was brought to our table right away, and the service was attentive without being rushed. For food, we ordered the sizzling short ribs with rice and shrimp, the brisket with beef balls, and the vegetarian spring rolls. Everything came out fairly quickly and was super fresh. The spring rolls were some of the best I've ever had--crispy, light, and full of flavor. The sizzling short rib plate was a standout: still hot when it hit the table, perfectly charring the rice and pairing beautifully with the tender short ribs. Absolutely delicious! My dish (the brisket and beef balls) was also fantastic, and even though I ordered a small, the portion was still very generous. The restaurant itself was clean with a nice, welcoming ambience. Service was friendly, efficient, and made us feel comfortable right away. Prices were very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes--great value all around. Overall, this spot blew me away. Fresh, flavorful food, excellent service, and an enjoyable atmosphere. 10/10--I'd absolutely recommend and will definitely be back! read more

Decent pho spot in South San Jose. I usually come here when I'm too lazy to drive to Vietnam Town. Service is quick, and the food always comes out steaming hot. The owner also runs Blue Monkey in Vietnam Town, and you'll often see her working here as well. The restaurant is clean, with TVs usually playing food shows or mukbangs. They even have a robot that delivers your drinks to the table, which adds a pretty cool vibe. read more

I went to this place today, even with the current boycott and must say that, Not ALL Asians are bad...

March 13, 2026 I saw on FB that Pho Now had a free spring roll/egg roll appetizer with a 2 main dish purchase. That was enough to give them another chance to redeem themselves. Hopefully their pho broth would be flavorful. NOPE, I shouldn't have wasted a trip there. All in our party of 3 tasted the soup before adding any condiments, and again there was no taste whatsoever! How does this happen? I've watched many YT videos of how pho broth is made with a lot of ingredients and spices. How does it turn out like hot water??? Terrible no taste, no matter how much hoisen sauce or Sriracha sauce I added. $19.95 for a large bowl, plus $1.00 extra for fresh noodles. No thanks. NEVER going back to Pho Now. read more
