Restaurant has curb appeal with ample parking. We were seated immediately the moment we walked into the restaurant. The food arrived flavorful, hot, and ready. The restaurant had sweet, cool, modern music playing in the background for a happy atmosphere. Will recommend and re-visit. read more

The pho broth here is delicious. Only negative food-wise was that you have to ask for the pho sides and they only give you a teeny-tiny bit of bean sprouts, basil, and lime and you have to ask for it. And no cilantro is offered. Service was less than stellar. We were there on a weeknight, it wasn't very busy, just a few tables -- but the waitress seemed disinterested in waiting on her tables. Everyone appeared to have to flag her down to order drinks, to order food, to get sides, and to get their check. read more

On this cold, & wild rain, there's honestly nothing better than a steaming bowl of pho, so we found ourselves back at Pho Viet Anh for round two, tonight. I originally came in fully committed to ordering the Bún Bò Huế (P4), but the moment I heard about the $3.50 giant rib add-on, all bets were off. I switched to the P1 Combo Pho just so I could have that massive, fall-off-the-bone rib soaking in that rich, aromatic broth and it was absolutely worth it. The broth was deeply savory and comforting, layered with flavor without being overly salty, and that rib took things to another level. Tender, meaty, and perfectly braised, it made each bite feel extra indulgent. My boyfriend went with the bánh mì pork sandwich, and we added fried egg rolls for the table. The bánh mì had that perfect balance of crispy baguette, juicy pork, and fresh pickled veggies, while the egg rolls came out hot, crunchy, and packed with flavor. We also got the chance to meet the owner/chef and had such a great conversation, which made the whole experience feel even more personal. Service was friendly and attentive throughout the night. Safe to say, this spot continues to deliver -we'll definitely be back for more. read more

Really amazing late night vegan pho option. The rice and tofu plate was good too. They also have a banh mi and rolls. There is a discount for sac state students. Really delicious and it's easy to order extra tofu too if you need more protein. read more

Pho Viet Anh - Beef & Brisket Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Sacramento, California

A Wonderful hidden gem, in the back of Butterfield Plaza. I tried eating at two other places, and neither worked out. I'm actually very glad for that, because when I found this place? The third time was. *DEFINITELY* the charm. It's just a nice simple place, nothing fancy. The menu is under the glass on your table. I was helped by Nhi, who was so very friendly. At the end of my meal, I mentioned to her that I'm going to Vietnam at the end of February. She asked where I was going, and gave me a couple of hints for a couple of places. That was very nice of her. I started with the Vietnamese crêpes. I didn't notice on the menu that it came with two of them. They came, and they were huge! The crêpes were crispy, and delicious. The shrimp were tender, and I liked the bean sprouts. It also came with extra veggies to put inside. Not knowing I would be getting so much food, at the same time, I also ordered the chicken and rice. Another total home run. The grilled chicken was tender, and it was just so absolutely flavorful. I added a soft boiled egg to the meal. And it provided that wonderful "yolk action" that I love, that drips down into the food. It came with a big portion of tender rice, and also more veggies on the side. Both the crêpes and the main dish came with the traditional Vietnamese condiment, nuoc Cham. Basically, water, sugar, lime juice, and fish sauce. Sweet with a little sour, and the fish sauce, gave it just the right amount of "funk" that I absolutely love. I had enough food to take one of the crêpes and half of my main Dish, Home, and for all of this food, it was roughly $30 before tip. An absolutely amazing price for such a high-quality and quantity of food. This place is absolutely a hidden gem, and I hope that they do very well here. I will absolutely be back. Thank you. read more

Came here tonight and had a really solid experience overall. We started with the chicken fresh spring rolls, which were delicious and super fresh. The peanut sauce deserves a shout-out on its own - great flavor and consistency (not watery, not gluey). For mains, we ordered the P1 (small, build-your-own pho) with steak, tendon, and meatball, and the P4 Bun Bo Hue. The small pho was surprisingly filling - plenty of noodles and protein, and I left full. The broth was good, though for my personal taste it needed just a touch more seasoning. That said, the grilled onions on top were a really nice touch, and I absolutely loved that they had a proper bottle of nuoc mam out on the table. It's such an underrated condiment and when a Vietnamese restaurant doesn't offer it, I immediately start questioning the integrity - so points earned there. The Bun Bo Hue comes in a large size, and while the portion was generous, the broth leaned a bit sweeter than what I'm used to. The meats were also a touch fatty and long cooked for sure. I usually prefer Bun Bo Hue more savory, especially with a pork-based broth - but hey, there are many ways to shoe a horse, and flavor profiles vary. One thing I must mention: the secret sauce. It's a garlicky, flavorful concoction for the pho, and wow - I should've used it from the start. If you're ordering pho, ask for the secret sauce. It's free and it seriously makes the soup pop. The restaurant itself was clean, comfortable, and welcoming, with attentive and kind service. Parking was easy, which is always a win in Sacramento. All in all, a pleasant dining experience with thoughtful details and good execution. read more

BEST PHO IN ALL OF SACRAMENTO! My family loves this place. The broth is always very flavorful and the beef tendon is always perfectly tender. The staff is always friendly and attentive too. The restaurant is also very warm, cozy, and inviting. 100% would recomend! read more

The place was pretty empty on a Saturday afternoon. Lots of tables available. I ordered the make your own combo beef pho. The soup lacked flavor and could've used more seasoning. The beef balls and rare steak were fine, not dry, but the brisket was tough and dry. I think it's nice that the menu has a vegetarian section. Our server was nice and asked which side veggies we needed to avoid waste :). This would be a good place to go to for late night, they are open until midnight! read more

Lunch brought me to a hidden gem today .. First impression walking into the restaurant, it was quiet and barely any patrons. 2 other tables beside ours. Restaurant was too quiet. Needed some maybe light background music would be nice. I love that the menu was placed under the glass table in front of you so no need to touch any menu to look and order! Only one lady was working and she was pleasant and nice. I ordered the chicken wings and a side of steamed rice with a Vietnamese coffee. My husband ordered a bowl of chicken pho and a banh mi (sorry I forgot to take a pic of his pho) My order of chicken wings was flavorful and delicious! What I was wanting so it hit the spot! I ate that with the steam rice which was deliciously fluffy and not dry. My Vietnamese coffee was good but I felt like it was a little bland. It needed more coffee flavor. It was more bland and milky My husband was shocked the chicken pho broth was actually delicious! And that's big coming from him. He always critics every pho broth as ehhhh he rather eat the pho I cook so for him to be surprised it's actually good.. that's 5 star in itself. He also said the Banh mi was really good too. Overall I would definitely come back because I want to try their bun bo hue next. Come try them out.. they're a bit tucked behind some buildings but their food is actually really good. read more

The last time I was here, this was a Chinese restaurant. They have cleared the space and made it brighter. The dining area is large - table and chair seating on the main floor and booths around the entire perimeter. Open until midnight was a selling point for me. I arrived around 9:45 and there were a nice group of people there being served and eating. The menu has many offerings among appetizers, Pho, Vermicelli, Rice, and Vegetarian dishes. I ordered the vermicelli with chicken to go. There was a good amount of herbs/greens and fresh vegetable and a sufficient amount of fish sauce to dress everything with. I was a happy camper. This is my second visit after coming here last week. I wanted to try their Banh Mi (pork) and again, am taking out. The sandwich had the great crispy French bread and was full of very flavorful and tender pork. Cucumbers, carrots and greens completed the sandwich. It was not bad but I wanted some other choices that could be added to the sandwich. I would have liked to add some pate to the sandwich. I think I'll look for a Banh Mi shop when I want a Bahn Mi in the future - not that this wasn't a good one but I wanted something a bit more. This is a good place for a meal Or a snack. Open until midnight is great and a definite selling point. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Check it out. read more

As far as I can tell in my limited time here, very few pho spots remain open until midnight in Sacramento. I stopped by with some friends to explore some future late night options. I ordered my default Dac Biet. In terms of the broth, it's run-of-the-mill. I didn't taste any flavor that particularly stood out, which is a shame because the bowl nailed pretty much everything else. The noodle texture felt just right and they added a decent sized portion of proteins. The meatballs tasted the best. This restaurant has capacity for large groups. It falls on the larger end of the spectrum when it comes to personal space and total area. I noted long tables, round tables, and booths that could comfortably accommodate 6-8 people. I stopped at a regular dinner hour, but I'll be saving this spot for a late night run. I read that the owner sometimes experiments with new broth recipes. Hopefully I catch a better one next time after a fun night out or when I'm having the munchies. read more

With Pho Momma being next door with an hour+ wait, this spot is a great alternative. When I went it was very spacious and roomy inside. The pho broth is very hearty and they offer a beef rib for only $3.50! The Banh Xeo was delicious and crispy. I would definitely get it again. Only thing I would point out is the bathroom could definitely use some TLC and a makeover. read more

Pho Viet Anh was a pretty lukewarm experience over all. The service was pretty much non existent. Had to get up to ask for more water. The restaurant was dead except for one other party. The restaurant space is very nice and clean. The menu under the glass top is clever. I got the salad rolls. The lettuce was a detractor with the spine of the lettuce still in there. Made it crunchier than desired. The peanut sauce was fantastic however. The pho was ok. I like that the broth is pretty light. The big pieces of onion were a bit off putting and the sprouts were a bit soft. My bowl was also not exactly clean on the outside. You can see from the picture. Overall, there are better options but for late nights; this might be one of the better ones. I originally came for bahn mi and they didn't have any baguettes. Now if they only they would come by asking me if I need anything else so I can get a to go box for these salad rolls... read more

Pho and spring rolls were great especially the spring rolls. The peanut sauce was excellent, and the shrimp paste was consistently good. However, the Bun Bo Hue is not, which was a lil disappointed since I was very excited to eat it. I couldn't taste the any Bun Bo Hue flavor at all. There was no noticeable lemongrass in the soup. I was also expecting "cha lua" or pork blood, but neither was included. Additionally, the vegetables were cooked directly in the soup. Usually, shredded cabbage should be served on the side. Cooking it in the broth made it soggy. Overall the experience is okay. Hopefully they change the recipe for the BBH. Will come back to try it another day. read more

I ordered the Five Spiced Chicken Wings and the Vermicelli with all beef, no shrimp. The chicken wings were interesting. The one thing I like about the Vermicelli at most Pho places is that there are different temperature foods in the bowl. This was not achieved here in this bowl. Everything was warm, the lettuce, sprouts, cucumber, picked carrots yeah, ALL warm. I will say I like how the menu's are under the plexiglass atop the table. Never have to worry about dirty menus! Lol I like how open the restaurant is. They offer discounts for Military and Sac State students. The restaurant is clean, the atmosphere is nice and clean. The food gets 3 stars Service 3 stars I probably won't return. read more

Pho broth is a little bit on the salty side with not much of the pho herb flavors, and the noodles were softer than I'd like. However, the brisket was surprisingly good as most pho places don't give out actual chunks of brisket. I like the chili oil and the fried onions on top. read more

While I appreciate that they're one of the few places open late that serves pho, I'd say the quality is pretty mediocre. I'm convinced they use canned pho broth--it just doesn't taste authentic to me. I do like that they have an extensive menu and stay open late, which is convenient. However, if I'm truly craving pho, this wouldn't be my first choice. read more

More of a 2.8/5. Ordered Pho combination, Pork rice plate, and chicken wings. Pho was plain and salty. I wouldn't call the large bowl a large. Its definitely a median size bowl. I was confused because the broth didn't have a beef flavor. Not too much meat and noodle. Pork on the rice plate was burnt. It reaped of a burnt smell the moment it hit the table. I knew it was burnt. Chicken wings was good. Might just need a little more sauce. I've seen so many comments in the past that said this place is better than the pho restaurant on the same block. Thats definitely a lie. I wouldn't come back. Big and clean restaurant. read more

They open late and the food is delicious! I ordered spring rolls and it tasted fresh. I also got the pho with brisket. I was surprised that they cut the brisket thick, usually all the pho places I have tried they slice the brisket thin as shabu shabu style and is tough to chew. They use quality beef and know how to cook the brisket. The staff is friendly. Will definitely come again. read more

Pho Momma isn't open as late, and I was meeting friends on a Monday night for dinner. Looking at Yelp, we found Pho Viet Anh was open until midnight and also in the Folsom/Bradshaw area. You won't find us in Little Saigon after dark, but to satisfy Vietnamese cravings, this wasn't bad! It is hidden in the back corner of Butterfield Plaza (you can see Doma Korean from the main road) though, and was broken into recently so their main entrance door is boarded. Counter by the kitchen, bathroom on the opposite rear. Big space, tables and cushioned booths, and several TVs with cartoons or music videos/YouTube playing (Adele, Bruno Mars, Dua Lipa, Gotye, Ed Sheeran, etc.). Printed menus under the table glass, and QR codes to scan as well. I noticed that the paper menu did not exactly match the online menu (P4. Bun bo hue was on hard copy but not digital). They also have rice bowls, banh mi, banh xeo, rice vermicelli, vegetarian, "home cooking" beef stew or lemongrass noodles or laap salad, and beverages. We shared one order (4 rolls) of the goi cuon spring rolls with shrimp, and these were pretty good, not overly minty. The noodles were still warm and some of the wrappers broke but that was fine. I didn't see if there was cilantro. The peanut sauce was also not too runny or flat, the shrimp was ok. One person got the iced Vietnamese coffee (they were out of the salted coffee foam). This was a very neat presentation and very strong stuff! One person ordered the P1 Pho (beef rice noodle soup) combination which had combination (steak, tripe, beef meatball, brisket, tendon), no onion. Garnish provided was beansprouts, basil, romaine, jalapeno, lime, perilla and of course sriracha, hoisin, chili, and whatnot. Takeout wooden chopsticks, real forks, plastic soup spoons, and napkins also provided. I got the P4 Bun bo hue soup. The waiter was patient as we were deciding, and assured me it wasn't too spicy, which turned out to be true. The bun bo hue also uses a different thicker, cylindrical more tubular noodle than the pho rice flat noodle. I've seen this dish at other places with the pork blood, but not here. Here though, they did have sliced beef, pork sausage with peppercorn, and pork knuckles! Fried onions on top too. I am curious about their combination pho for next time. Their bowls only come in either size Small or Large, except the bun bo hue was one-size. They don't do bun rieu here. read more

I had been craving Pho for WEEKS and finally had some last night with a friend for dinner. They have a small menu which I like, but they still offer Spring Rolls, Egg Rolls, Chicken Pho, Vermicelli and Rice Bowls as well as unique drinks. I ordered the Beef Pho with Rare Steak and Meat Balls. It came with all of the fixings, but what really put it over the top was the house-made garlic chili oil. It had such great flavor and I actually preferred it over Sriracha. I also love that Pho Viet Anh has large and small sizes of their Pho - the small is the perfect size. Overall, it wasn't the best Pho I've ever had, but it definitely satisfied my craving. The inside is very spacious and clean - plenty of seating with different size tables. Staff was also very nice! Check them out! read more

Went in for late night dinner and ordered the small pho combination. This was the first time I wish I had ordered the large and I usually don't order a large.

I visited Pho Viet Anh for lunch, and I was truly impressed by this hidden gem! The restaurant is tucked away in an Asian shopping center, and I had high hopes given all the positive Yelp reviews. Inside is spacious, and we seated ourselves in a comfortable booth. My partner and I both decided to build-our-own beef noodle bowls with steak, but you can add up to three protein options. The garnishes came out first, and the server offered to bring out more. We took her up on it since we love our pho loaded with sprouts, jalapeño, and lime. The bowls came out shortly after, and I was not only satisfied with the size, but the quality of meat. Usually when I order pho out, the meat is already well done, but the steak in our bowls was medium rare and tender. The broth was delicious, and I had enough to bring home leftovers. We even enjoyed 10% off our check for bringing a Sac State student ID! Thank you for the great dine-in experience and looking forward to our next visit. read more

The food was okay and the space was decently big. Service was pretty meh, we kept having to wave them down even though the restaurant was not that busy. What I'm mad about though is that they automatically charge 18% for parties 5 & over, instead of the usual 6. I missed the tiny asterisk on the bottom right of the menu, and the server never made any mention of it. When we paid, they said our order out loud to make sure it was correct but never showed us the screen on the electronic pin pad and only gave it to me to look when it was on the gratuity screen. Naturally I tipped 18% on it, only to look at the text receipt they gave me later to see that I had added an additional 18% on top of the automatic 18%, and that the additional 18% was after tax and the automatic tip! That seems pretty predatory to not even show me the receipt before charging my card or making any mention of it. Yes, I could have asked but I didn't even think to because it's normally parties of 6 or over and we had 5 people. read more

Reviewing a place like this is tough for me, as the service was really great and sweet. But ultimately the food was lackluster. I was in Sacramento for a work trip and was quite excited for the numerous pho options. It seems I didn't pick the right one. The pho dac biet didn't have the traditional yellow fatty meat I love, but I figured it wasn't a big deal as it was generous on the other meats. How, I found the brisket to be on the chewy side, making me wonder if the cook on it was rushed. Perhaps the pho in general was rushed as the broth was really lacking in depth. It tasted like beef broth out of a can boiled with inklings of the correct spices. Not nearly the depth of flavor one would expect from a pho broth boiling for hours. I wish the business and people the best, but the pho was very mediocre. read more

The Pho here is sooo yummy! The staff are so chill and pleasant. My fave in the Sac area.

We were having a family reunion. We had 14 people altogether. When we arrived they didn't have a table big enough for us so they sat all of us at 3 separate booths. As we sat there, the other large party finished up. We asked if we could be sat there instead so we can all be together. The young lady seemed annoyed, but said it will take them 10 minutes to clean. We said we will wait. After they moved us so we could all sit together, she took our order and the food came out. There were 3 of them giving us our food. The poor gentleman - he messed up one order; and the young lady that told us that it would take 10 minutes to clean told him loud enough so my nieces, nephew, and sons could hear that he needed to do better. I felt she could have helped him out quietly and then talked to him in the back about it instead of saying something like that in front of customers. But the pho was indeed delicious. The broth was the BEST, I've ever had. I give the pho a solid 5 out of 5. The service a 4 out of 5. read more
