this is only about the drinks. have not eaten here yet. it's next to Pho King and for a minute i thought it was the same because there are signs for vietnamese noodles outside the semi enclosed patio. i had the iced black tea with coffee jelly. hit the spot. the tea is strong and stands up to being iced. lightly sweetened - not too sweet. lots of coffee jelly and actually tastes like it's made with coffee and not coffee extract. warning for those new to boba type drinks: the coffee jelly is not jello, so has a fun more bouncy and chewy texture that i love.

Second time here and I cannot say enough good things ! It's my new fav spot . I came this second time around and got the chicken dish it's so good . It's soft and moist while the outside is crunchy . The pickled veggies and rice is delish ! I ordered a bowl of soup on the side this time as well . The Vietnamese coffee and orange juice are yummy too

Cloudy Friday with a few missions accomplished in Oakland/Alameda Homedepot, we (my fiat and I) were slowly rolling out the main entrances. I was avoiding eye contacts with the Hispanic bros who are waiting for work in the front. Not now but good to know that you guys are around... I think... Wait! I see pho and 10.95 and where?!!! Tasty Bowl! and 10 minutes later, I'm sitting down waiting for P1 (pho combo) for $10.95. Not a scam... yet.... (btw, BBH no pig feet $13.95, with pig feet $17.95, I was amused by the flexibility they think this can be....: ))It's piping hot and a hearty bowl of pho. Not huge not small and just right, though it's hard to fish out the thin sliced stick meat. But there are quite few big pieces of briskets and even with some long time boil neck meats. Garnishments are quite fresh as well. Is it because they are next the very famous Pho King that they need to work extra harder? Regardless, if you take the trouble to post a sign outside of H.D. and I see it, I'm sold. Probably no one would disagree with me that the amount of effort and energy you need to keep the business running, safe, competitive, profitable (another 100 words later), you need more than 10 miles of work and imagination. Plus, have you ever seen any restaurants have their original price crossed out with a discounted price? I've never. They exactly remind me of the ppl in Vietnam, creative and survival oriented. This is why they caught another immigrant like me. Only suggestion is to clean the table and siracha bottle better. They are kind of greasy. Sometimes cleanness is the first thing to propel ppl. It doesn't take much to correct it. Slowly rolling out of the mall now...

Man, second time here and it's really very different from the first time we were here. We ordered:Pho - very little flavor in the broth and the broth itself wasn't hot enough#15A: the grilled meats were not tasty at all and seemed rushedAppetizers were such a bummer:Calamari: looks nothing like the picture on the menu and it arrived AFTER our meal Salt and pepper tofu: super coated in batter and served with raw onions. Arrived AFTER our meal. I just don't think we will be back until they make some changes.

This is our go to noodle soup spot since Pho King is always so busy and the other spots further down International are a bit farther. We've been going here since we used to live in the area. I like the hu tieu nam vang (soup) with thick egg noodle soup when I'm feeling like eating something more Cambodian. I love the fried pork fat, quail egg, blood cube, pork slices, and I always add chili oil and pickled jalapeños. The broth is well rounded and flavorful. Perfect balance of savory with a little sweet. I also like picking different noodles for this soup since I always eat rice noodles with pho. The dry version is very bomb too. This is the best dish there in my opinion- especially for those who like a variety of flavors. My husband always gets the #1 pho combo. It comes with a beef rib as well. Sometimes we get the regular pho combo too - there's a special right now for $9.95 for a small. This is a really good deal for the Bay Area honestly. The place is usually not packed but I wish it was. The team knows our orders there. It's a very nice family establishment. I know there's a lot of competition nearby but it's worth a try! We've gone to all the other spots as well - each place will have their own special dish and for me it's the Hu tieu nam vang.

Hu Tieu broth is very clear. On my second door dash order, the shrimp was undercooked. Otherwise this is a really good bowl of noodles and the portion size is solid.

No complaints for a delicious packed bowl of combination beef pho for $8.95. You will not find a better deal anywhere in the states. I've been here six times in the past two weeks. Owner said the promo is until the end of the month, and they'll even be open tmw on thanksgiving! Go get yours while it lasts.

My go to spot for Wonton Soup with Ho Fun Noodles! May not be our favorite Vietnamese spot... but for Wonton's, I really like it!Service is quick.You sit where you like. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. We usually sit indoors against the large art wall. They take your order. You eat. And you can go to the register to Apple Pay.The portions are pretty good. I always finish up my whole bowl. Broth and all!

3.5* Egg rolls were good, chicken pho special had chopped up chicken bones in it, some discolored so it wasn't appealing to me at all. No wonder it was on special. I'll stick to my usual spot.
