Dope Pho

The first time I tried pho here, I was very impressed, from the food to the service. The food is delicious and the pho has an authentic flavor. The staff are cheerful, enthusiastic, quick, and provide excellent customer care. Actually I will definitely come back many more times

Trust me, best Pho in Bay Area for Vietnamese people! And also other dishes such as: Hu Tieu Bo Kho, Banh Mi Thit Nuong and Bun Bo Hue! A+++ for service and food tasting!

In comparison to the Vietnamese food I usually eat in San Jose, this place was ok. I came here for dinner on a weeknight and it wasn't too busy around 5:15pm. I ordered the shaking beef rice place since that is one of my go to dishes to get. The flavor wasn't quite like what I'm used to and it was alright. My friend had order the crispy garlic tofu and crispy fried noodles with seafood. She had asked for the sauce to come on the side but it didn't come out that way. I don't know if our server heard the request since she also had a hard time getting our order down in general. The tofu had no flavor when I tried a piece. There's plenty of parking in this plaza. Some of the tables were in direct sunlight, so I can see this being uncomfortable during the spring and summer months. We had grabbed a table behind the wall to avoid the sun. Overall, food and service was ok and I wouldn't have to come back here again to try other dishes.

Overnight this pho place became Dope Pho. It looks like almost the same menu as before so we just ordered our usual: Rare Beef & Brisket for him, and veg rice noodle soup (vegan) for me. We also added the crispy garlic tofu. Reasonably priced, super tasty and served up fast. The workers here are just as friendly as the previous owners. Yay! The tofu dish had a slightly smaller portion but the price was also adjusted so it's not so bad. I actually prefer it so we are able to finish all our food at the restaurant and not have to take anything home.The restaurant got a bit of a makeover and looks nicer than before. I'm glad pho here is still going because it's in such a convenient location and is uncomplicated.

Another good pho spot in Fremont! I really enjoyed the short rib pho here. The beef rib was so nice and tender and had tons of meat. The broth was a bit sweeter than most places; I'm guessing they use more rock sugar. Not bad though. The Bun Bo Hue was pretty good too, but I wish it had a bit more flavor. All the meat in there was really good and cooked perfectly though. Also tried two apps: crispy garlic tofu and egg rolls. The eggrolls were piping hot and super crispy. So yummy I wish they gave more! Crispy garlic tofu was nice and savory with aromatics, but could be crispier. BBQ beef over rice was good and like any other place. They have a ton of tasty drink options too.The service was so sweet! This spot screams family owned! The owner even brought what looked like his son to greet us. So cute!! Also, I hear that they have a happy hour menu currently with items that are $13.95 when you come from 8-9:30 PM. Definitely gonna come back for that!

Dope Pho was more like alright pho in my opinion. While the Bo-Ne was good and sizzling, they were EXTRA skimpy with the pate. Speaking of skimpy- don't order the chicken wings. The wings were so skinny and small. Those chickens must have just hatched. I asked if the size is always that small and the server said yes. Yikes. The #14 combo pho was also overpriced. Small bowl for over $19.To me they were just another over hyped restaurant on IG. I don't usually believe foodie influencers, but this place was closer than the place I wanted to go. Overall...It wasn't terrible but it wasn't what I expected either. Would I come back? Nah.

The cold weather called for a nice hot bowl of soup so we decided to try out this new pho place and it did not disappoint! We ordered spring rolls, combination pho, and grilled chicken vermicelli.The portions were great and the dishes were very flavorful! The broth for the pho was a little on the sweeter side but it didn't have that aftertaste that some pho places have. The grilled chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned! The customer service was top notch! I got take out & brought my 3 year old with me & the worker offered to carry my order to the car! Will definitely be coming back here again!

They have Pho Ap Chao! Their Bun/vermicelli dishes are tasty, although the shrimp is a bit dry since they butterfly cut it before grilling. The pork is good. Pho is yummy... My kids like the rare steak pho, no herbs.Service is top notch. Very friendly.

10/10 By far the best Pho i've ever had, all fresh ingredients. Choice of fresh noodles or traditional thin noodles. Biggest 20. Short Rib Noodle Soup i've seen, very generous amount of protein, noodles, garnishes of spring beans, green onion and parsley for additional flavor. Would recommend to anyone who loves pho, as I absolutely enjoyed the experience and meal here at Dope Pho. Service is great and always available for you. Ambiance is nice as it is in a great location.

The food was delicious, service was great, and portions were large. My server was very welcoming and attentive. Loved the atmosphere and overall clean vibe. Seating was spacious and the lighting was warm. There was also a giant flat screen for entertainment while you wait for your order.
