Being accustomed to Vietnamese food in San Jose and SoCal, Co Do 2 does not hold a light to the flavor and quality you can get there. Stopped in for lunch and ordered a few different items from spring rolls, com tam (rice plate), bun thit nuong (noodle bowl), hu tieu kho (dry noodle bowl), wonton soup and chow fun. Everything was unremarkable and meats overly salted. The spring rolls had no flavor and barely had meat in it. Meat was dry in the noodle dishes and in some dishes inedible. The best part of my hu tieu was the side of broth. The noodles itself were super salty and the seafood was on the small side and didn't taste fresh. The chow fun was 1/3 sliced onions. I do give it to them for serving up large servings, but felt like they go more for quantity than quality. Service is whatever, food came out quickly but once we were served our dishes we were never checked up on or waters refilled. Price is cheap, so I guess you get what you pay for. Around $100 for 5 people. read more

Co Do 2 - Hu Tieu Kho - Vietnamese Near Me - Sacramento, California

Been to Co Do 2 now a few times in the Natomas area on Truxel Road. Nice location with ample parking. This place is pretty big inside with lots of dining tables and very clean. The staff here are friendly and very courteous. Always greeted quick once I entered the place and informed to select any open table. Menu provided quick and placing an order is super easy. I tend to stick to my usual pho dish which is the wonton and egg noodle soup, especially during this cold, rainy winter weather. The bowls are fairly big bowls so I typically just get a small size. It is as usual served on the side with fresh basil, chili, mung bean sprouts and sliced chili. I always top it off with sriracha! Sometimes I'll order fresh spring rolls too depending on appetite. Price is reasonable. Always a good experience here and will be back as a regular visitor. Haven't tried the other Co Do in South Sac yet but will try sometime soon. read more

We first came here in 2019 and it was one of her favorite places to go during COVID because it was quick, delicious and not very expensive. We have since then grown to love the folks that work there, the service is phenomenal and the restaurant itself has gone over. Make over and it is very beautiful inside. We often eat different stuff , but these are my favorites.. i highly encourage anybody who is wanting some delicious Vietnamese food to come pay them.Visit , you won't regret it. read more

The gloomy Sacramento winter weather has had me craving soup, so I decided to stop into Co Do 2 for some takeout. The parking lot was pretty packed, but I was able to find a spot. Be careful in this lot, the parking spots are on the tighter side and many people are coming and going. I walked in and headed to the counter to peruse their menu and ended up ordering pork spring rolls ($7), Hoan Thanh Mi (wonton and egg noodle soup) ($15.95), and Bun Dac Biet (House Special Combination over vermicelli) ($16.95). After ordering I took a seat and snapped a few photos, and my order was out within about 10-15 minutes. Everything was packaged well and when I got home we replated everything for our lunch. The portion sizes were generous and each dish is perfect to share, or for bigger appetites will fill you up. The spring rolls are a goo size and had lettuce, bean sprouts, rice noodles and pork with a peanut sauce for dipping. I didn't notice mint or cilantro- or it may have been a very small amount, it was definitely more noodle heavy. The wonton noodle soup came with a full container of broth and all the toppings on the side. There was a good amount of wontons, pork, and noodles as well as basil, onions, cilantro, bok choy, jalapenos, and lime. This soup is perfect for the winter and the broth and wontons were very flavorful. The vermicelli noodle dish had a generous amount of noodles and meats. The combination comes with shrimp, pork, a spring roll, veggies, peanuts, bean sprouts, and a few other ingredients along with sauce. I ended up combining everything in a large bowl. This is a solid spot for a meal, and I know I'll be back again. read more

I have this places another opportunity and it failed. Food was really bad. We orders a pho with nuts white meat and they did not follow the order. I ordered sweet and sour chicken and the flavor of the chicken was too fishy. They need to be careful on cooking each meat with different oil, you never know y who is alerting to fish or chicken. Service was very bad. I asked for extra limes, they never came back to the cable. We wanted more water they never came to give us more water. One of the waitress never smile, she looks mad, if you do not like your job get a different one. Ambience is good, The place look clan no complains about that. But good and service that was bad bad bad read more

We haven't eaten in or tried their soups so my review is based on take out food and the brief service interactions we've had. I used the Menufy app to place my orders and also ordered at the register. All interactions were friendly and apologetic if I had longer wait times. They've also offered me water whenever I've waited. The restaurant itself is large with lots of tables and pretty decor but you could see there's some messiness of work in progress going on. As for the food, everything we've ever picked has been amazing. My favorite thing to double order is their cha gio/fried spring rolls. It's also a great bargain for our area. You get four big spring rolls for $7.50. Another dish we won't skip is their com bo luc lac/shaking beef. It's the perfect combination of savory and sweet caramelized beef cubes with vegetables and rice ($17.95) Maybe my opinion will change once we dine in and try their soups since opinions on their pho are very divisive. My favorite reviewers are very harsh, but honest so I will take that into consideration for the next time. But for now I have to give them five stars. read more

I decided to try another dish here. This time I got their rice plate and was disappointed. The meat was tough like it was just reheated and the portion wasn't much, especially for the price. If you want a good rice plate similar to this, go to Com Tam Dat Thanh. It's a little bit of a drive but it's so worth it. Very delicious, bigger portions, prices are cheaper, and also a mom and pop shop. read more

I started off with one start bc of their customer service attitude. We order take out, I came in and ask for the order to pay for it. They didn't greet me. They asked for the name I said the name. She walked to the register gave me my total. I paid and stepped aside to check the order (just to double check). I asked her for utensils and she repeated my question, and I said yes pleases. She hands me them and I say you're welcome and it was in that moment I got their attention. RBF is not it! Please don't work in CUSTOMER SERVICE, if you have no service to offer. I felt scammed bc I had tipped. I'm going to start asking for my 35% tip back no lie. read more

I happen to be in the area at 10 AM and decided to give this establishment another try. This is one of the very few establishments that opens at 10 AM. I ordered the beef short ribs rice plate for my take out order. It was perfectly prepared...very tender and flavorful. I love that it also came with a side of broth, which was still steaming hot and delicious. I'm happy that I returned and found a dish that I really enjoyed. read more

I liked the other co do and thought this would be good too. I got the short rib rice special. The presentation was very nice with lots of food. The food was filling but wasn't that satisfying. I definitely like the other location better. The beef was a salty, the pork skin stuff was dry and bland, and the other stuff was just ok. The broth was good. I drank all of it. I might just stick with their broth dishes only next time. read more

Co Do 2 - 32. Com Dac Biet Suon Bo Dai Han - Vietnamese Near Me - Sacramento, California

We were looking for some pho in the area as this was what my niece was aiming to have for lunch. Co Do 2 popped up and we figured, it looked pretty good so why not? In short, no frills, solid broth pho. L O C A T I O N Co Do 2 is located in a small plaza in its own standalone building. There's parking shared by all the businesses though small, it was easy for us to find a spot right in front. The spaces do feel a bit tighter than usual. I N S I D E There's a stage on the right and basically all the seating is toward the left side of the building. Some booths, some stand alone tables. But there was plenty of seating when we arrived. M E N U The menu is pretty big and so you can probably find something that you're craving from noodles to soup to rice plates, etc. They did also have Chinese food. We opted to get a few items which were the shrimp & ground pork egg rolls (cha gio), hu tieu mi, and pho tai bo bien (rare beef and meatball noodle soup). ~ 1. Cha Gio ~ It was okay. Not the best egg rolls. I don't even recall getting any shrimp in the bite or two I had. Just very ground pork forward. ~ 9. Pho Tai Bo Bien ~ The meatballs were very flavorful. The beef good after a nice bath in the broth. The broth was great. It had all the melded flavors that you would imagine in a pho. Definitely would get any of their phos again. ~ 16. Hu Tieu Mi ~ I guess we should've read the menu so we were surprised it came with a thin flat noodle and egg noodle in the bowl. The both was very light. So if you're not looking for a heavy flavored broth, definitely go for this noodle soup. There was a variety of toppings which was fun including imitation crab, fish balls, squid, pork, bbq pork, etc. S E R V I C E Once we came in, we were seated. We placed our orders at the table. Things did come out fairly quickly after we ordered. We then asked for the bill and apparently you just had to go to the desk in the back to pay. I wish they put a sign on the tables that said to pay at the register when done. O V E R A L L It's been a long while since we've had pho, so for my first time eating it in a while, this one hit it out of the park. It was a comforting bowl of soup on a cold-ish day. Definitely filling even for the medium bowl (can easily feed two people) and a large if you're my hubby who loves noodles. I would skip the egg rolls unless you love them. I would be interested in their actual rice dishes, but it might be probably a very long time I come back as I don't live in the area, but if you're needing a steaming bowl of pho on a cold day, definitely try this place out! read more

Great place to grab pho and they also have some Chinese dishes in the Natomas area. We came here on a Monday afternoon before dinner, I think around 4pm is when the workers are taking their breaks before it gets busy. When we got there it wasn't busy but people started trailing in after work and school. We had a party of 5, service took a little long but the food was great. We started with spring rolls, and 4 of us got pho soups, ranging from small to large, someone got a vermicelli bowl, we also got the fried chicken wings in fish sauce, and we got the slow cooked bone in beef which comes with 2 huge bones for $10 and great to share with the table. There's plenty of table and group seating for families and there's a little play and game area for kids. I also got an iced Vietnamese coffee which did the Jon to get me through the day. read more

Delicious food, and fast service. Space is a little odd and large, perfect for a banquet. There's a stage that was turned into a sandwich bar. I got a Vietnamese coffee and banh xeo.

Customer service: D A lady answered the phone was extremely rude and impatient. Upon arrival, two teenagers were sitting at the front desk and clueless. No help. Didn't understand why I was there even though I had walked up to the front desk saying that I have a pick up. I understand that it was a Sunday noon and maybe everyone preferred to be at home instead. FOOD: F My gosh. The worst pho of my entire life. Straight up salty. No pho aroma. No other flavors but salty. We ordered 3 pho Đặc Biệt... My children didn't finish there bowls and usually they are great eaters. My husband and I just at the meat and literally poured everything down. We had an extra order of pho. I stored it in the fridge immediately after and thought to myself that I could try again the next day. Broth went bad even though it was in the fridge. This tells you how long had this broth been and explains why it was super salty. I DO NOT recommend this place for Pho and will not return. read more

Co Do 2 - 23. Bun Bo Hue - Vietnamese Near Me - Sacramento, California

I have been on the fence about coming to the second location of Co Do with the very mixed reviews, but after I saw another Yelper mention that the restaurant has recently been renovated, I decided to finally try it out for myself. I have recently been on the hunt to find the best BBH restaurants in Sacramento, and was looking forward to try the BBH here. I set my expectations low as I enjoyed the BBH at Co Do but it wasn't the most flavorful, so I was expecting something similar here. But I was wrong. Co Do 2's BBH is by far better than the first location. Not only is the soup deep and flavorful, but it is full of lemongrass flavor. The color of the broth was also red when it arrived, which is what I love to see. I asked for shrimp paste as well, which arrived quickly. The noodles were perfectly cooked and the herbs were fresh. The meat was tender and I got a big fatty pork hock to gnaw on as well. The large was perfect for my early lunch. The restaurant itself is clean and spacious, as well as quiet. I came on the day before Thanksgiving, so that might explain why it was so quiet, but regardless I felt comfortable dining here. My server was kind and friendly, and attentive to refilling my water. Co Do 2 is tucked away in a quiet corner of a strip mall, but it is the perfect place to get a good bite in. I would love to try their pho some time, but this review is strictly for their BBH, and I am very happy to find another place that serves BBH well (and not in South Sac)! I can't wait to bring my husband here soon. read more

First off, service was good. Not her fault. I came in for lunch today. Very hungry. Had not eaten all day and super busy. Was stoked to find an off the beatened path Vietnamese restaurant in the midst of my holiday shopping. I ordered the eggrolls for appetizer and mi quang for my entree. With great anticipation, I waiting a short time for the eggrolls to come out. Much to my dismay, I was presented with what looked like a great disappointment. Vietnamese eggrolls. Tiny partial leaf of lettuce with a large amount of a cheap sweet and sour sauce. Being Vietnamese my entire 51 years of life and 30 if those years an executive chef at some of the best and most luxurious hotels in the country, I ask myself, "HOW DARE ANYONE EVEN CALL THIS ATROCITY "VIETNAMESE EGGROLLS"? I spoke to the server and told her I don't want this and there isn't even an offering of the ubiquitous nuoc cham, a Vietnamese staple sauce with any Viet eggrolls any effing where. No mint. No cilantro. No fresh crisp leaves of greenleaf lettuce or anything resembling this components. After refusing to take the dish back, she said she would bring me what normally comes with eggrolls. As if being deeply disappointed once was not enough. She bought out a small bowl of fish sauce and a plate of greens. Spotting its contents from 10 paces, I knew this was not going to end well. I was brought cilantro, ok. Some pickled carrot and daikon. Was way too sweet. Adding insult to injury, a fistful of Thai basil. I what effing world in the US or Vietnam does eggrolls come with effing Thai basil??? No effing where. The "nuoc cham" deserves the quotes I put it in because it was not nuoc cham. At best it was cheap fish sauce with water and sugar. No garlic. No lime. No resemblance to Vietnamese nuoc cham. This in it of itself is a crime punishable with scathing review. I will never darken Co Do's doorstep. I will shout from whatever mountain top/platform telling diners to STEER CLEAR OF CO DO. FOOD IS HORRENDOUS AND SO MANY OTHER LEGITIMATE VIETNAMESE ESTABLISHMENTS IN Sacramento than this JOKE of a Vietnamese restaurant. VIETNAMESE, YOU ARE NOT. STOP LYING TO PPL. read more

Friendly service, quiet place, not very busy at lunch time. Difficult to find with Google directions. Nice decor with lanterns and paper umbrellas. The bun rieu was flavorful; however, a bland and too sweet. The tofu was tough and tasted better with fish sauce. Would have loved other veggies to go with the noodles soup instead of just mint and cabbage. My husband and kids liked their pho and my husband commented that the pho noodles were cooked to a nice consistency. The marinated beef with lime juice was the best dish on my opinion and I don't like raw white onions but it was so tender, flavorful with the right amount of lime and seasoning of the herbs. Definitely recommend it and will come back for other dishes to try. read more

9/9/24 5PM. Craving for spring rolls gỏi cuốn and bûn riêu. Hubby ordered at this place for take out. I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS PLACE HAS A LOT OF BAD REVIEWS?! EVERY THING THAT WE ORDERED WAS PHENOMENAL! 5/5 stars. Bûn Riêu: shrimp paste and pork ball noodle soup. Not sure bout the price cause I didn't order it. Will update later. - only thing I didn't like is the soup seems to have a lot of oil particles, but I didn't mind cause the flavor of the soup over-all taste really good to me. I really LOVE that the soup is not too strong- not too salty. I can slurp the soup with out eating the noodles and it tastes light and flavorful! Also, love that they added 2 pieces of cubed pork blood.. YUMMMMMMMM!!! I know every Vietnamese family makes it a different way. This family makes it perfectly fine. WILL ORDER THIS AGAIN =) 5/5 stars. 2 orders = 4 rolls $15.23 including tax. Gỏi Cuốn (Spring Rolls) shrimp: has green lettuce, mint, rice noodle and pieces of shrimp (I think the shrimp is boiled or steamed). Comes with sweet peanut sauce. - I love how they add a lot of mint cause it helps with my nausea. Peanut sauce is on point! Ordered this twice now and will continue to. Hubby said ambiance is like Vietnamese/Chinese style hall. They have a stage in the front where you can sing karaoke or some thing. Restaurant is good for big events. It is VERY SPACIOUS! We wondered if they rented this place or own it. Hoping maybe if they moved to a smaller place, it would help them cut cost. Then we thought, maybe they're doing ok since they've been open for business for so long. Hope every thing is well. Happy eat's ya'll! read more

Overall I like this Vietnamese restaurant. I've tried the beef pho countless times and have enjoyed it. It is pretty good pho for Sacramento. However, I tried the bbq pork Bahn mi sandwich and the appetizer egg roll for the first time and it was not good. I have to be honest and it was pretty bad. I could not finish it. The BBQ pork bahn mi was extremely salty and I like salty foods and I could not finish it. The egg roll was not very good as well. Ive had egg rolls many times from other restaurants and they always give a side of fish sauce but they gave me a side of sweet & sour sauce. read more

Often strolling on their phones and sometimes very dismissive. Overall, this is by far the best pho restaurant in North Natomas. Love the upgrades and cleanliness. read more

I've been here a few times, but today was by far the worst experience. I ordered the #30 -- rice with grilled pork, shrimp cake, shredded pork skin, shrimp on sugarcane, vegetables, and an egg/meat patty. The dish looked beautiful and appetizing, but unfortunately, looks can be deceiving. The rice was dry (thank goodness for the broth), the grilled pork was tough and overcooked, the egg/meat patty tasted microwaved and was hard as a rock, and the shredded pork had a sour flavor that seemed spoiled. Service wasn't much better -- staff didn't address the issues unless specifically asked, and overall attentiveness was lacking. The ambiance was just okay, but it was distracting to see only one server rushing around while another stood at the counter and yet another sat in a booth eating and shouting loudly. Sadly, this visit has left me with no interest in returning. read more

A decent spot for Vietnamese cuisine! My fiance and I were in the area and decided to check this place out due to the recommendations for the "Bun Bo Hue". Upon walking in, we were amazed by the space and decor. They have several booths and tables to accommodate large parties. Everything looked tidy and not rundown compared to other Vietnamese restaurants I frequented. They have a wide selection of Vietnamese dishes. We opted in for the Bun Bo Hue and Bun Rieu. Overall, the dishes were just OK and not as flavorful. The broth is the main component of both dishes and yet the flavors were subtle. It paired well with the vegetables provided and they provided a good amount of meat. It is surprising to see this is one of the only Vietnamese spots in the area! Parking was plentiful and if you ever find yourself for Vietnamese food this would be the only spot or you have to drive to downtown Sac for others. I would come back to try their pho and other appetizers. read more
