Another TL food gem for those serious about good eats! Don't let the streets scare you off, Pho Tan Hoa serves up some of the BEST dry pho in the Bay, especially when it is something that is pretty hard to find nowadays. Really unassuming store front on Jones street, once you're inside the restaurant it is very clean. Make sure to bring CASH since they are cash only. Ordered their #35 wide egg noodles dry and the noodles came relatively quickly. Really great flavors from the sauce that's already mixed in with the egg noodles, lots of good toppings, and the side broth is delicious. Their bun bo hue is great too but I love their dry pho here more. Strong and great vietnamese coffee. Owner lady is sweet and friendly. TL really has a lot of great food gems, just make sure to bring CASH and stay alert when you're on the streets.

One, of my favorite pho places in SF. Although Pho Tan Hoa is in the Tenderloin, it is must-try place. Whenever I get pho cravings, Pho Tan Hoa always satisfies! Their food is more affordable and absolutely delicious. In terms of ambiance, sometimes they can be a little crowded on the weekends or during lunches, but their service is so fast. I really like their #13 pho with rare steak and meatballs. The pho noodles are chewy and the broth is so good. If you haven't been here yet, highly recommend!Note: Cash Only

Really good and filling food. The fresh roll was really good and appetizing. I only ordered half but it filled me up. The shrimp and roast pork were really delicious. The fish sauce was really tasty and not fishy. The vegetables were very crunchy and The shrimps were really nice and fresh. It is a cash only place. The service was great. The server helped me choose the best options. The place was in the Tenderloin so it was really interesting to navigate. The place is simple and spacious inside.

I was in the mood for another bowl of pho today after my delicious bowl of pho last week at Miss Saigon.There must be another good bowl of pho somewhere nearby in downtown without having to go to SoMa (Miss Saigon), I thought.Nope, I still have to go to either Miss Saigon or Pho Huong Viet (Richmond district) for great bowls of pho because this place isn't.Pho Tan Hoa is neither bad or good, just average bowl of pho.

One of my top 3 pho places in the city. Friendly people, quick service, and the place is big enough you almost never have to wait.

This is not at the heart of Tenderloin. If you come from O'Farrell, you are ok. Take #38 bus get off Taylor walk half a block. It is not scary. Once inside, it is big. It was super fast once you order. #8 medium, no beef balls. #7 large had beef balls. I was very full with medium. Soup is flavorful. Complementary jasmine tea great tasting. Soup had enough meat but not enough tripe. Comes with chili, bean sprouts, lemon, not lime, basil leaves.

There are very few restaurants in San Francisco where you could get a meal under $20. This is one of them. Of course this is just for a meal and a drink without appetizers. While the location of the restaurant may not be the best but I don't mind. The inside looks a lot nicer and surprisingly quite spacious. Thank goodness for dine in option and table service. Vietnamese pho without being able to dine in would be atrocious. I hate not having the option for a small bowl on pho đặc biệt (special pho) which only comes in a medium size. Only certain pho options come in small and large. I don't get the reasoning behind this at all as it doesn't not make any sense to me. The pho is good but I don't really know if it's the best pho in San Francisco or not as I have not been to other pho restaurants in town. The spring rolls are tasty as well. An order comes in 4 rolls and you don't have options for a smaller order which I don't understand either. I ended up eating all 4 rolls myself. Pho Tan Hoa is a good Vietnamese pho restaurant that's worth the money spent. It's very affordable but is mainly restricted by lack of size options such as being able to choose a small special pho or an order of 2 spring rolls instead of 4. For this reason, it gets a solid 4 stars.
