    pho chay
    Grace X.

    My family had an amazing dinner here! The menu has a decent number of vegan options, I had the pho chay which was really delicious. The broth was very nicely flavored and there was plenty of tofu and veggies. My one minor complaint would be that some of the veggies were a little bit too chunky, not bite sized. My dad and sister both got meat based pho which they thought was really good and my mom enjoyed the spring rolls. I also tried some of my mom's kumquat sugarcane juice which was really nice. The location is very convenient, an easy walk from the mountain view caltrain station. The staff were super nice and the inside was quite clean.

    This is an authentic, no frills Vietnamese spot located in the Castro Street area of downtown Mountain View. The menu has a LOT of options of appetizers, pho, rice plates, vermicelli bowls, banh mihs, drinks, and desserts. The food is really good. We had the beef pho and the grilled pork chop rice plate (like $15-17ish) and they were flavorful and excellent. The service is super swift.

    This place is right in downtown Mountain View. I got the beef rib pho. Overall I thought it was decent, but my partner wasn't very impressed, particularly with the broth. I don't think it was bad, but I also wasn't blown away.

    This place is awesome, always hits the spot. Today unfortunately they messed up my order, I paid extra to get egg noodle and I got rice noodle. I will still give them 5 star review, because once again this place rocks. We usually get the #18. Chin Nam #21. Pho Ga #23. Pho Thap Cam Do Bien. If they are not super busy I'll do mine half rice noodle and half egg noddle. Once again it's an extra charge but it's so worth it. Today we also got the shaking beef plate and the pork and egg roll combo plate. Their spring rolls are all bomb and their egg rolls are super tasty too. This review is just so ownership/management see that they had a hiccup but overall this place is super chill, family owned and super tasty. Cozy feeling even when they are jammed packed.

    The seafood with meatball pho - 5/20/26
    Joanna T.

    After a business event in Mountain View, I was strolling around Castro Street looking for dinner when I came upon Pho To Chau999. The restaurant wasn't packed. There was no line (compared to Chinese restaurants on Castro Street). Looking at the menu, I was blown away by the variety of pho noodle combinations. Oxtail? Seafood including calamari? Sounded so yummy. I sat down and was given the menu quickly. The pho noodle bowl I ordered was seafood with meatballs. I ordered the standard size rather than the large bowl. It was plenty for me! The soup base was clear. I ordered the egg noodles rather than standard pho rice noodles. Very tasty! I couldn't finish the bowl so I took away a portion of it. The décor was spare with photos of Vietnam scenes. For a meal of pho, the price is probably average for Mountain View. It is less than the cost of a bowl of ramen or fancy hotpot. I enjoyed the pho and will return to try other dishes. The veggies were fresh!

    I would always come here when I was local to the area. I was in the area visiting and went here again. The space is large with lots of tables. We were a table of 8. We got seated and ordered water/our food. Majority of us got pho but two got rice plates. The food was good and pho broth is a solid meal. In terms of service, our food was served about 15 minutes later. We were missing someone's order and tried to give the benefit of the doubt so we waited longer. We waited another 10 minutes but then nothing so we tried to get the attention of the servers. They were busy so we weren't able to flag them down until 5-10 minutes. We told them we were missing a bowl of pho and they made it within 5-10 minutes. Unfortunately by the time we flagged them down and got the food, most of the table was done eating. Overall, the food was good but service was a little slow.

    Pho dac biet
    Raymond M.

    I went for the pho dac biet, which comes with rice noodles, rare steak, flank, fatty brisket, tripe, and tendon. The soup was good and flavorful, with a comforting broth, although the portion did not include a lot of meat compared to other Vietnamese restaurants. The customer service was decent. The establishment was clean, which made the dining experience pleasant. Street parking only, but there is a parking garage nearby, which helps if you are not able to find a spot immediately.

    This is a decent pho spot. I would say they have decent serving sizes and it tastes pretty good. However, it's not the best I've ever had. It's a bit on the oily side for me. It does the job if you're in the area though. The service was good. They brought everything out relatively quickly. I overheard some interactions with other tables and it seems like they can read their customers well. The space is pretty big with lots of tables so I don't think waiting is that much of an issue. I would say check it out if you're in the area.

    Been getting colder in the bay so was hoping to try some local pho. Honestly, not the best pho I've had. The soup broth is quite heavy, dark, and just was not fragrant and delicious to me. They give you a decent portion of meat, tripe, etc. depending on the pho you select. Not too pricey, but next time would prefer a place in SJ. No wait time, seated immediately. Orders were taken quickly and all our food came out fast and at the same time. Vibes were pretty standard. Pretty much what I would expect from a pho restaurant in terms of seating, condiments, utensils, etc. was convenient and close since it's in downtown Mountain View. Probably won't return.

    tofu banh mi
    Rita C.

    this pho place is located in castro next to a bunch of different restaurants. parking is pretty easy, as there are multiple parking lots. however, during busy times, the lots might get full. what we got: tofu banh mi (10/10 yums): very well seasoned and a great option for vegetarians. the bread was crispy, yet still soft. #04 pho tai chin (9/10 yums): good broth and size. we got the regular size and it was already a good portion. the broth isn't the most full bodied pho broth i've had, but still really good thai iced tea (s) (10/10 yums): classic thai iced tea! no random grounds on the bottom which was good. also wasn't too sweet! #56 com ga trung (10/10 yums): i really liked the chicken! it was not dry at all and was seasoned well. #21 pho ga (10/10 yums): great chicken pho. I personally liked how the chicken was skinless and was the breast.

    Brought my family here on a cold weekend after coming for lunch with some coworkers. Got seated immediately and got the menus as well. It was pretty empty so it was cool for us since that means faster service! Here is what I got: 1. Grilled Pork Rice plate (10/10) it was delicious! I opted to add an egg and it comes with an egg roll as well. It's so delicious as the pork is marinated to perfection and grilled so well. Not dry at all! Totally recommend. 2. Spring rolls (10/10) were so good! First time I had grilled pork in them so not sure if many will like this as it had a sweet taste to them but they were good! My daughter loved them! Only thing is that they lacked on shrimp but no biggie! 3. Beef Pho (8/10) super good flavor! Not skimping with the meat just did not like how it didn't come out as hot as I would like! Other than that it was good! 4. Chicken pho (9/10) my daughter is very picky with her Pho but she enjoyed it. She said it was delicious and she would come back. Over all, it was great! Pretty simple decor so don't expect a fancy dinner or something but do expect good food! Recommend checking out if your ever in the area

    My friends came here Sunday lunch (11:45am) and mid-way of our lunch we had a lot of foot traffic coming in and going out, so finding a table should be a challenge. The parking is always the difficult part in this area. I ordered a #4 regular, which is Pho with steak and some meats I can never remember. I've been seeing pho prices (for regular sized bowl) inching to $18-$20 per bowl these days and Pho To Chau999's price-to-portion size is a good deal. Their pho broth is rich and flavorful. They gave a good amount of meat and noodles. Service was wonderful; they checked us on our group periodically and fill out water cups. I'll definitely be back to try their BBH!

    Good, simple pho that comes out fast with polite service at a reasonable price! I would definitely come back to try other phos and dishes.

    I have had a lot of Vietnamese food but did not really enjoy this one. It did not have a lot of flavor. I was disappointed. I won't be back.

    Anyone who knows me is aware that while I'm eating my current meal, I'm already thinking about my…read morenext one. While having pho at Pho Nam, I considered grabbing a few sandwiches there to bring back to the hotel. I had a hot date with Netflix later and absolutely no intention of going out again. But not far away is Cam Hung, a tiny Vietnamese sandwich shop specializing in bánh mì. It's cheap, and it's in the kind of quiet Sunnyvale strip mall where parking is not an act of war. It shares the plaza with a Chinese herbalist and acupuncturist. On a Sunday afternoon, the place was practically deserted. Perfect. I walked in and immediately realized this was much more than a sandwich counter. The tiny shop is crammed with prepared foods, spring rolls, steamed buns, Vietnamese desserts, dried snacks, candy and all kinds of things I couldn't identify but probably wanted. The main attraction, however, is the bánh mì. These are big sandwiches, and even the most expensive ones top out at around $9. I got a Chinese barbecue pork and a ham and pork roll to take back to the hotel, along with a bag of roasted candied garlic and chile peanuts. I came dangerously close to buying the peanut brittle too, but the sugar would have nailed me. Even I have limits.

    Quality/Quantity - My guest bought one of each sandwich for lunch today, thank you…read more Beef, Pork and Chicken - All of which was just okay. Minimum flavors, light meats but the bread was baked perfectly. Ambiance - To-go order. Small to-go shop. Open 7 days a week from 8am or 9am to 8pm. Plenty of mall parking. Service - Good. Price - My guest paid and would not accept my $$; thank you. $8 minimum charge for credit card, not an issue for us. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success for 20+ years; I think longer if you count the previous owner.
