Broth - 5 stars Soup - 3.5 stars Service - 3.5 stars Atmosphere - 4 stars Lost a big star for Lacking meat. Paying for just delicious broth is not gonna cut it for me. Id give it 3.5 and normally round up but the loss of meat is a big deal in my book and so I went down this time. If they get the meat balance right again they will be a solid 4.5-5 stars to me. For the broth this place is delicious. I always get the BBH bowl. Its delicious and loaded with amazing flavors in every slurp. Sometimes I get it traditional and most times I like to change it up and add wonton and egg noodle, or pho noodle yum. (Im just not a fan of the spaghetti noodle in anything but spaghetti) The broth is on point, loaded with that BBH flavor, Its by far the best around the area. The last few times around it was just lacking in the meats? It really bothers me when restaurants do these tricks to cut their cost, or increase their bottom line. Soup is everywhere and competitive. Quality is what should matter the most. Quality = return business = stay in business and successful. I hope they get it right or I will have to pass, I love BBH but other pho spots are great too and don't pull these tricks. The veggies are clean and crisp. Had a coconut water it was good, had nice pieces of coconuts. Service is pretty good, and atmosphere is nice Hope to continue to be a repeat customer here. read more

BBH Noodle - BBH - lacking in meats big time. But great flavor - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Co-workers and I came here for lunch. It's a small restaurant. We arrived around 11:40 and there was already a full house. Luckily we didn't have to wait. Our table was clean, but when they brought out spoons and chopsticks, all 4 spoons were dirty! We asked them to give us new ones, and even new ones were still dirty! Yikes! There were flies flying around our table. Some of them kept landed on our heads and our table (uggg) We were not to impress at all. Whole restaurant smelled bun bo hue. First the smell was great, but we had to sit with strong smell like that for over an hour. When we left, our clothes were all stinky. Maybe they need to upgrade a stronger ventilation in their kitchen. Slow service. We had to wait for for 20mins for our noodles soups came out from the kitchen. The bowls were hot, bowls were full with soup, but they didn't have a plate the bottom on the bowls, so when waiter put down our bowls his thumb touched our soup yikes! We ordered: 2 x bun bo hue (#6) 2 x dried yellow noodles with soup on the side (#15) - Bun bo hue had a very strong shrimp tasted. It was too strong for my taste. Their sate sauce was not hot. All we tasted was sweet paste of chili. - Dry noodles was al dente. Soup on the side was hot and flavorful, BUT it only came with 2 shrimps, 2 sliced of pork and 1 piece of squid. For 10.00? Wow they were really skimpy on the meat and portion. Way over priced for their portion. Over all: Cleanliness: 1 star Food: 2 stars Price: 2 stars Service: 2 star Ave: 1.75 star May not come back again. read more

BBH Noodle - #15 - dried egg noodles with soup on the side - a very skimpy on the portion for 10.00 - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

The spring rolls were fresh and big enough for a full meal. Bun bo hue broth is flavorful and comes in big portion.

***************** 1682 ***************** I've been here before when it was a previous restaurant. Came in for Bún Bò Hu, the spicy beef, pork, pick blood, ham rice noodle soup for Hu City Vietnam. They surely nailed it. The broth was tasty, generous portion, enough spicy that you don't need to put in extra saté chili sauce. Fresh herbs, efficient service, well price, it's a good spot to have lunch. read more

I just happened to passed by this place and there were no customers around thinking it was still closed, but the middle aged man I assume the manager/owner came up to me very politely that they are still opened for business and I was seated right away and he brought over the menu and the first thing I've noticed is the price difference from the one shown in December 2017 and they have gone up. I decided to order the House Special fried rice Vietnamese style for $12.50 and for drink Thai tea around $4 bucks, the server the young lady brought over my meals and they were very generous. During that time there were no other customers could been the holiday or that it's still early in the day. I wouldn't mind coming back and try out their noodles and appetizers. As for parking won't be a problem though I would avoid coming down here during lunch time since there are so many businesses wrapped around this tiny strip mall. FYI, there's a 50 cents charge for take out orders it's written in small print on the bottom of the menu so take notice. read more

Here's another update, decided to try again after years of not coming due to customer service last time. Guess what?! Still wack :( Bro really got a hearing problem and didn't get my order right. Also their are people to the side of me that sounds like they are chocking on the noodles. All I hear are people who sound like damn dragons. I hear a "ugh-ugh" every damn bite. Like sheeesh I do not recommend eating here ! Save yourself some money and eat the local Subway nearby read more

Good food!! Should give it a chance! Your mouth will be happy and your tummy as well! Take a special friend or your best buddy! Time well spent I must say! Take it from me you'll feel good after eating this food! read more

Been here a few times over last 1-2 years since it first opened up at this location. Came mainly because a friend recommended I try their Bun Bo Hue as theirs taste pretty good. As a fan of this noodle soup, thought I check it out. After a few tries, I can say their Bun Bo Hue is okay, so-so, do-able, but not as good as they say. Place accepts both cash & cards, service is decent, inside restaurant a bit small with only few tables, and price on the higher side for noodle soups. Wouldn't be a regular place for me but might drop if no where else to go for Bun Bo Hue for future reference. read more

Move over, An Nam! There's a new guy in town! Bun Bo Hue An Nam has been my long-time favorite but I'm happy to have discovered BBH Noodle which is comparable in flavor and is a little more reasonable in price. I don't expect much from the quality of meats served at Vietnamese restaurants but it's a different case here. The bo luc lac was surprisingly tender as well as the meats in the BBH-- even the meats that I'm not fond of, I found it to be very good here. It's nice that other dishes are also served here for those who want variety. All in all, a very good alternative to An Nam. It's definitely worth a visit. read more

Since moving to the South Bay, I have exponentially increased my intake of Vietnamese food! Haha. Parking: Not a problem at all since it is in a plaza! Ambience: The space is small but has the a couple tables that fit a party of 6 or more. Nothing about the space stands out; it is clean compared to other Vietnamese restaurants. Service: I have been here multiple times, and I find their service to be great! The employees are friendly and prompt. The girl who was serving us kept checking in on us (not in an annoying way by any means) - if we needed water, etc. Order: My friends and I ordered Bun Bo Hue. If you have not had Bun Bo Hue, it is a noodle soup with beef shank, Vietnamese ham, tendon, pork blood, and various other vegetables. The flavors are deeper with lemongrass, beef bones, fish sauce, etc. The noodles are similar to a thicker version of spaghetti noodles. The restaurant allowed for replacing meats - since I didn't like pork blood and tendon, I got extra beef shank and Vietnamese ham. Verdict: 4 because the soup is delicious (I believe it's comparable to Bun Bo Hue An Nam), there is no wait like the other restaurant, and the service has been consistently great. If you are wanting to expand your Vietnamese palette, you should try this dish which originated in Hue! :) read more

BBH Noodle - Bun Bo Hue :) - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

I was told this place was better than Bun Bo Hue An Nam and man was I wrong. So disappointing. The Bun Bo Hue is bland and very sweet. Hue style foods are normally very well seasoned with richness and depth. 2 stars for sure. read more

Solid BBH! Starts at $10 and goes to $12 for the bigger bowls. Would come back to try other dishes! read more

So glad there's a Bun Bo Hue house in my city! Bun Bo Hue is definitely one of my favorite Vietnamese dishes because of its flavor and the assortment of different meat. As someone mentioned, I wish they would add spice levels to the Bun Bo Hue instead of having to ask for the extra chili oil. Took one star off because customer service could be so much better. All 4 times I've visited the customer service was lacking and we always had to ask for our orders to be taken. Otherwise great soup house in the midst of the numerous pho house in Milpitas read more

This is favorite bun bo hue restaurant ATM. The food always comes out fresh and piping hot. The broth is flavorful but not with MSG. And they cook their noodles al dente which is always a plus. Their spring rolls are also really good too. My only complaint is that they are a little skimpy on the chili sauce here, I hate having to ask for more. They should think about making a spicier broth version so people like me, won't be eating all their chilis. read more

Restaurant has that authentic, traditional Vietnamese vibe to it. Their menu is limited but that is due to what they're trying to focus more quality with. Their Bún Bò Huế is of better quality than most places and is the most popular option. GOOD FOODS TAKE TIME. If you do want authentic Vietnamese food, I would recommend this place. read more

Came for an early dinner and it was empty with the wait staff sitting around gossiping. Probably because of how early it is, because towards the end of our meal, a few people did come. However, it doesn't appear to be busy at all as we left. Service-wise, despite it not be very busy, there wasn't much service provided. However, it is an Asian establishment so what can one expect? In total, two of us had the Bun Bo Hue, a regular Pho, and an order of spring rolls. The spring rolls contains both pork and shrimp. Nice combination for those that prefer them to be more savory. It does have a hint of lemongrass in them and the peanut sauce isn't overly thick or thin. The wrap's texture is very firm and not as soft, but when bitten, it was fine. The regular Pho looks nice and my friend whom had it said it was good. For the Bun Bo Hue, it came with a condiment dish with half stir-fry chili paste and half shrimp paste. The shrimp paste is nice, but the stir-fry chili paste wasn't fresh as it wasn't crispy and was soggy from sitting too long. The Bun Bo Hue is visually appealing and to my taste, I felt the broth and soup was a bit weaker than another one I've had earlier in the week. The broth's taste is more mellow in comparison and the spiciness and heat were weaker. For a lighter tasting person, it would suit their tastebuds, but not for a person who wants full or bold flavors in their Bun Bo Hue. Taste-wise overall, it was weaker in regards to savory, spiciness, and heat. In terms of ingredient quantity and quality, the Cha Lua came with 2 slices and were ok in regards to thickness. There were 2 slices of beef shank slices and they were average; more chunks of shank instead of slices. There were 2 slices of pork that were average quality as well. Two chunks of pig's blood, which were sub-par average. Not very fresh and they were more firm than soft. The noodles were interesting where it was soft, but at the same time al dente. Perhaps they were not cooked evenly? Lastly, the broth's temperature is warm-hot and not necessarily hot when they served it. Overall, it is an acceptable bowl of BBH, but I don't consider it to be amazing or spectacularly for me to drive over to have them each time. Especially when I know other places that can offer a better BBH for me. Side-notes: I believe they suffer immensely from a lack of quick circulation. The chunks of pig's blood and their ingredients would probably be fresher and of higher quality if they had a steady flow of customers to constantly empty their supply. The store I am comparing it to is San Jose's Bun Bo Hue An Nam. Supposedly, BBHAN's chef came to here after leaving the San Jose store. To me, I could careless, because all that matters is whether or not the BBH is good or not. read more

Solid 3 star food and experience. The bun bo hue here is above average. It's way better than what you can get from a typical pho restaurant (well because it is their specialty) but still not better than Bun Bo Hue An Nam in San Jose IMO. Pros: -Soup actually has flavor. Spice level is not very strong - Nice portion of meat - Very accommodating when we asked to switch for thin noodles - Modern decor with fancy large spoons and fancy bowls - Food is served fast Cons: - Found myself drinking a lot of water and still thirsty after...msg loaded? - Poor service. They will not "see" you when you flag them down cause their mind is focused elsewhere - Restaurant layout can be improved (big plant probably should not be placed smack-dab in front of door) - Side veggies could be more fresh/fragrant - Bar seating looks more like you're eating at a counter. I need to point out that the one big thing that stands out here MORE than the food is the service. Dear lord do I sense fear and chaos in all of the waiters eyes! They are soooo frantic and their nervous energy literally rubs off on you. I would suggest waiting a couple+ more months for them to get their operations refined before expecting a nice ambiance here. read more

BBH Noodle - $9.50 bun bo hue - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

I came in today for their official grand opening and was definitely satisfied. They're currently offering 20% off entire orders until July 21st(?) I came in with my family and we all ordered the Bun Bo Hue and the broth is amazing. Soup comes out hot and fresh and their portions are good and fairly priced. The broth isn't spicy, but the chili on side is a must have with it. I tried their Jasmine and Thai tea which I really liked too! My cousin and brother also approved. If you're not a fan of noodle soups they also have rice plates, banh xeo, spring rolls, etc. Overall no complaints. Decor is very modern and clean. Service is quick and very friendly, always checking up to make sure we didn't need anything. Thank you to Chris and Josephine! My new go to BBH place since it's so close to home. Side note: please sell banh beo :) read more

One of my favorite restaurants to get some good ol' BBH. The owner and son are so sweet and make sure you're well taken care of. They offer other menu items like Hu Tieu, Pho, and rice plates but I'm the type of person that orders what the restaurant is known for. The flavor of the broth is really good! Not too oily and has the perfect balance of beefy-ness and spice. You can add more of their house made chili if you please. Don't forget to ask for the shrimp paste either! It puts it all together nicely. They don't skimp on the amount of toppings either. There's only 1 size and that size is more than enough to feed 2 skinny girls or 1 big buff dude. For under $10, you will have a fully satisfied belly that will have you wanting to come back for more. read more

In Milpitas, I've had pretty crappy bbh when I'm too lazy to go to San Jose for it. Finally, a place worth going to in Milpitas for bbh! Food: The bbh is pretty flavorful, however I did add more chili flakes. There's only one size, which is okay with me. You don't have to pay extra for pizzle and blood cubes! We also got mayonnaise egg rolls. We ordered it because we had no idea what it was. We were half expecting egg rolls stuffed with mayo. They're basically honey walnut shrimp with egg roll wrapping. I was very surprised that the roll was jam packed with while shrimps (maybe 6-8) because restaurants generally skimp on the meat portion. I got strawberry milk tea and was expecting the mixed-powdered type you get from a boba place. Instead, I got milk tea with fresh strawberries: way better. Service: The majority of the restaurant was full, but the servers were still so attentive. There's a lot of Vietnamese food competition out there, but I think this restaurant will do just fine if they keep up the quality of their food and service. read more

BBH Noodle - BBH - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Came here on the grand opening, and I was pretty impressed. Most places usually suck when they first open and take a while to get better, but I thought everything was on point! Food - BBH noodles, yummmm! Broth is delicious and they give large portions of meat. They don't put as much chili oil, which is good for me if you have a sensitive stomach lol but you can ask for more if needed! They also have the chili sate on the side so you can add however much you want instead of it being already pre-added, which sometimes can be too much. I also tried the crunchy shrimp egg roll thing was GOOD! I forgot exactly what was inside it but it's an egg roll with a shrimp and mayonnaise(?) type thing, reminded me of honey walnut prawns and it was bombbbbb, def a recommended appetizer! Jasmine milk tea was yummy as well. Most places make it either too sweet or tea-y, but this place is a little more on the tea side that I prefer. And they don't fill your whole cup of ice and give you a tiny bit of the drink which is amazing considering a lot of places, I feel like I'm paying for a cup of ice and a side of milk tea.. So extra props to this place! My bf had the Korean BBQ beef, I tried it and it was marinated perfectly! He didn't have any complaints and thought it was really good. My brother ordered the bo luc lac (shaken cube beef or something) and he said it was the best he's ever eaten! Which is insulting because my mom makes it for him all the time lol. But I guess it proves a point, BBH Noodle ALL your food was delicious and made us very happy!! Lastly, service was good! The food took a little longer to come out but hey, for someone who just opened, they did really well in my opinion. The workers always asked if we needed anything and even came back to ask how the food was, opinions, etc. My cup of ice was never empty! That's good service right there! TL,DR: Delicious food, you won't be disappointed. Service was on puntooo, I shall be back, often! I used to eat at Bun Bo Hue An Nam all the time, but this is going to be my go-to now! read more

So glad there's a BBH place close to home! Also sad that I moved to SD for school the year they opened...but when I am home, this is my go-to for bun bo hue. The broth is just the right amount of spicy, the meat portions are generous (good meat to noodle ratio for sure), and it's not as oily as BBH at other restaurants. I have yet to try their rice plates, but one of these days I'm going to reject my BBH craving and try their bo luc lac! The food attracts me, but what keeps me coming back is the service. The owner and staff are friendly and attentive! They treat you like family, and I love that. As for the venue, it's clean, modern and spacious. It's located on the corner two stores down from Starbucks, and there shouldn't be any issues finding parking. Can't wait until I'm back in Milpitas so I can come back! read more

I've been a customer for many years and this used to be my favorite place for Bun Bo Hue. I was happy to consistently order from BBH during the pandemic to help out. However, for the last several months, they've inexplicably have up the saltiness 10x! It is so bad that not even 2 whole lemons couldn't blunt the saltiness - I've been literally choking on the salt. I called the owner and gave the feedback so hoping that this will change ASAP else I'm done here. Fingers crossed as it used to be and hopefully can be amazing again!! read more

I'm always the scout for new places before taking the family out to eat, I and my co-worker decided to try out the new BBH restaurant in Milpitas that people were giving great recommendations. I like Bún Bò Hu (BBH), but the heavy shrimp paste in the soup prevent me from eating it. My friend ordered that and I tried the "Seafood Pho Áp Chao". My friend didn't think BBH was up to par with his taste, too much MSG he said, no flavor of real meat and spices. The meat was still very hard, not tender, he left some on the bowl. Everything these days they throw in the Ox tail as an option. I never had any BBH with Ox tail, I'm not interested in parts of the butt. The Ox tail wasn't special, there is NO pig feet. I like BBH because of the pig feet but I think not many people eat them these days. My dish was fine, the sauce was just right for me, but some may find it under seasoned or not salty enough. One thing about most VN restaurants is very deceiving is that when they throw in some shrimp, squid and the dish became "SEAFOOD". No, it's not, mostly chicken strips with a few tiny shrimps and tiny pieces of cut out squid. The veggies were cooked perfectly, the rice noodles were crispy and I was actually satisfied with my dish. The service was OK, the place was full at lunch, we did have to get waitress attentions by waving or calling to get something. I'm sure other dishes and soups are good, but I haven't tried them, but if the place is crowded at lunch, the taste must be good. Everything is over $10 as most of the VN restaurant these days, standard prices? read more

Came here on the 3rd day of officially being opened and I loved it! I usually get bun bo hue from places on Tully, which is a 15-20 minute drive from my house. I'm super stoked that this one opened and is only 5-10 minutes away!! The bun bo hue broth was super flavorful, super bigger than most on Tully, and they really hook you up with meats and such. I hesitated on ordering the mayonnaise eggroll, but I'm glad I did! It tasted like a different version of honey walnut prawns in an eggroll :)! It took a while to get utensils and water, but the servers were very considerate; they apologized, kept checking up on us, and were very friendly. Definitely going to be my go-to BBH place! read more

When the employees heard that my co-worker loved huyet (pig's blood cubes), they added extra pieces for her. She was definitely a happy camper. They also gave her extra samples of the chili sauce they were selling (she loves her dishes super spicy). She now makes her BF take the soup to-go when he visits her. :) The Goi Cuon was mostly lettuce and were just ok. I make those better myself. read more

BBH Noodle has a short menu, seating area small, tables small, distance between tables small. clean eatery, little decor, glass windows on 3 sides? claustrophobia may set in when BBH is packed eats: ordered pho dac biet(8.5 combo) got bun bo hue (9) -BBH's version pales when compared to tully version eaten earlier in the day -nice broth flavored by crab paste -less protein than tully version, beef chewy not tender, same protein items -serving bowl smaller, pho comes in only one size.. black vietnamese iced coffee(3.5) -slight bitter taste, not as flavorful nor bold as american coffee take outs: -seated quickly, menu came slowly..... -service was above service, though i got wrong order. told them i would keep it if they changed the price, no need to waste good food. *doubt they would serve it again...... -20% off till 21th july during grand opening. -3 stars: food was average tasting, very fresh. -menu offerings: various noodles, appetitzers, desserts, drinks...... -parking an issue in this area, read more

Better than AN NAM. Meat & tendons: softer, not so hard to chew. Pork's blood: a little overcooked (but people always tend too, and it was still good). Spice level: at first I didn't think it was spicy as all, but it gradually got there. The guy forgot to bring my mom her tea out... Aside from that, super good, not the best (my mom's of course), but for a restaurant: it's better than okay, just not superb. But, compared to an over hyped place (BUN BO HUE AN NAM)= better. And if you can't do too spicy: maybe you're in luck, or its definitely not overpowering in my opinion. I'm a Hue person, so I can eat the spiciest of the spiciest. It's not my quick fix place, but anyone trying to drag me to AN NAM, I'm going to urge for this place. Will try other dishes next time. read more

BEST BBH IN TOWN! This is opened by one of the owners of BBH An Nam so the taste is very similar.

This place was a disappointment. Bun bo hue is my favorite dish and no matter what I'm craving, if I see BBH on the menu, I automatically change my mind to order it. Needless to say, we were planning to dine at King Wah for dim sum when we parked and saw this place and my cravings took over. It's super clean and doesn't give off the vibe that it's been there forever like other places it's near. Right off the bat I noticed how much of a price difference their menu was compared to other Vietnamese restaurants. They had one type of BBH for $12 - it includes everything to be considered 'dac biet'. They had a wide range of varieties in case you were with a Pho lover or someone craving rice, but they only offered one version of those dishes as well. The broth was very bland and lacked any type of spice. The picture I took was after I put in 3 spoons of sate - which I had to ask for both that and shrimp paste. The Vietnamese iced coffee I had was given to me 3/4 of the way full and was undrinkable. It wasn't the strength - it was just bad. I should be giving 1 star, but they get 2 because everything in the soup was cooked well (especially the pork blood) and the clean restaurant. read more

BBH Noodle - Excuse my mixed together bowl of BBH - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Decided to finally try this place out after passing by it so many times on the way home. Walked in here around dinner time and got seated right away, menus and utensils placed on the table. I value fast service more than anything. Got the bun bo hue and egg rolls. I was under the impression that a $10 noodle bowl wouldn't fill me up but wow I was wrong! This bowl has a huge and generous variety of meats, and also the pig blood was a huge plus for me. I kept on working on my bowl until I had a mini food baby, thus being one of the most cost efficient and delicious meal I've had in a while My only complaint is that the egg rolls should've came before the noodles, being an appetizer after all, I was about half-way through with my main order before they arrived. Regardless, they were great and the inside basically tasted like walnut shrimp. There is a $15 minimum charge for credit swipes - I hate this restriction so much and die a little every time I see signs like this on the cash register... read more

BBH Noodle - Bun bo hue - deceivingly small appearance but really filling - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Pho is great here. My husband ordered the pork chop it was huge! The place is clean with a casual easy ambiance.

Bun bo hue broth was flavorful and hearty; probably one of the better bun bo hue I've had in the east bay. Nevertheless, the more flavorful something is, the more worried you should be. I drank at least two cups of water whilst finishing my bowl. One of my distant relatives did work here for a little while before he quit and told me that they DO use ACTUAL bones for their broth (lol, what a relief am i right?), but then add a little something magical to the bowl before they serve it. *hinthint* Other than bun bo hue, I once ordered their "Baked Seafood Rice" thinking that it was going to be really unique, but to my utter disappointment.. it was just basically fried rice with carrot pieces, calamari, and shrimp. GG. Their "shrimp and mayonnaise eggroll" was good but SUPER oily and needed a little bit more mayonnaise because it was sort of...dry. Also, it's not worth the price of 2 for $4.50 Service was decent. read more

BBH noodle just recently opened and usually BBH spots aren't around this area often. So I'm glad the family who owns this restaurant decided to switch things up and plop one of the tastiest BBH noodle houses in the Bay Area! After visiting this place I could say their broth is one of the tastiest that I've tried around San Jose. They give a great portion of meat in the noodle dish, along with a heaping side of veggies (which I totally looooove!!) and the broth isn't too spicy either! I also had a chance to try two of the eye catching appetizers on the menu: the fish sauce glazed fried chicken wings, and the ship+mayonnaise stuffed egg rolls. The eggs rolls reminded me of honey walnut shrimp dish stuffed inside an egg roll shell, without the sweetness of the walnut. (2 for $5 though...) the eggs rolls were good but I probably wouldn't order it again.... As for the fish sauce glazed wings, they were delicious! These I would definitely order again, but I wish a piece or 2 more wings would be provided in the appetizer for that price. Service was great!! One the of employees (I'm guessing one of the owners or someone related to the owners of this family restaurant) was taking a lunch break but still was paying attention to the floor to help out and calling his co workers to come help us out! Great customer service from beginning to end. I definitely will be back, see you soon BBH Noodle!! read more

BBH Noodle - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Bun bo hue: A spicy bowl of flavors. The broth is beef and lemongrass based. It is served with thick long and slippery rice noodles with pig blood squares, slices of beef, vietnamese luncheon ham. I could be topped off with onions, cabbage, and bean sprouts. All of this for $9.50 a bowl. This is definitely the best place to get bun bo hue if it isn't at your mom or aunt's house. Other than the great food, the employees here are great as well. They here are hardworking and enthusiastic and makes sure you leave with a satisfying experience. It is located at a plaza and you could already smell the deliciousness from the parking lot. The ambiance inside is clean and modern. I am for sure coming back! read more

After reading so many positive reviews on Yelp, I've been wanting to try BBH Noodle. I finally had a chance this morning, so I got there just as they opened. The place was a little smaller than I had imagined. It probably seats 30-40 people. Since it is my first visit, I wanted to try their Bun Bo Hue, which is their specialty, and the shrimp/mayo eggroll, which looked intriguing! The first to arrive were the eggrolls. They were disappointing! Each of the 2 eggrolls were filled with maybe 2 shrimps at the most. The flavor was bland! I'm not sure what the flavor profile that they were trying to achieve here, but whatever it was, it wasn't successful! The Bun Bo Hue was a little disappointing as well! Like every soup that I try, I always try the broth first. It really lacked seasoning! I've had better Bun Bo Hue! I'm really perplexed, cause the reviews were glowing, and yet my bowl of soup simply underwhelmed! The only good thing about the soup were the noodles which were cooked to perfection! I'll stick to Pho Luu located half a mile away! They are consistently good in all aspects! read more
