Pho San Jose

The restaurant is spacious, and we were seated right away in a comfortable spot away from the sunset glare. We came for an early family dinner and enjoyed a smooth dining experience. Service was quick. We ordered the Pho San Jose and the Braised Pork Ribs Rice—both were flavorful and satisfying. The pho broth was balanced, not overly salty or heavy with MSG. My toddler especially loved the braised pork; it was tender, easy to chew, and not too salty. The plaza has plenty of parking, which makes it very convenient. Overall, a pleasant meal and we’ll definitely come back again.

pho was good! but service kind of felt like they were rushing me to order and finish my food even though it was a slow day, as i went to go pay and ask for a to go box but left my bag and things at the table to make sure im still at that table but once i paid i walked back to my food being cleaned up and put away (it was still pretty full of food/soup) i also was going to go up to ask for water as no one really came by, but with the whole cleaning up our table i just decided to leave after paying.

Overall an ok experience with good tasting food. However, we weren't given utensils and had to ask for them, and when they were given to us the spoons had remnants of food already on them. We also ordered spring rolls that never came, so we ended up just canceling them because we had already mostly finished our food when we realized they were not coming. The food itself is tasty and served freshly prepared and piping hot. The broth tastes well seasoned and rich. However, the restaurant seats also were a bit dirty and there were so many flies bothering us while we were eating indoors. The overall experience wasn't the best, but the food was good so I may prefer to get a take out option next time!

This pho place is good overall. We liked the broth—it was flavorful and well done. The service was okay, not bad but not great. Unfortunately, we found two strands of hair in the soup. That said, the staff handled it well and were willing to replace or exchange the dish. In the food industry, staff should ensure hair is properly secured to maintain sanitation standards.

This spot offers a generous selection of toppings and plenty of seating—great for groups of any size. Food: What stood out to me was the variety of toppings available in one pho bowl. Options like chicken, meatballs, and beef brisket were combined by default, whereas most places typically serve them individually. Definitely a unique touch! Service: Service was fast—our food arrived in less than 10 minutes. Atmosphere: Spacious seating both indoors and outdoors. The space was clean and had festive Christmas decorations, adding to the charm. Overall: I’d definitely return. The portion sizes were satisfying, and I appreciated the variety of toppings.
