    This is a fancy Vietnamese restaurant that used to have steak and grilled squab and some fancy dishes . Now is under new management and the menu is basic Vietnamese noodle soup . We came here for lunch because we had a big party of 20 plus people . It had lots of tables to fit us in . It also had the deal to buy three items and got the fourth one free . Inside decorations were nice and even had a stage to get on to make presentation . The dinner tables are good for wedding or reception for company events . However , the taste of the pho is fine but the choice are very limited . The dishes are " modified " to more basic than the traditional Pho restaurants. They don't have tendon or tripe or some beef rib bones and crabs paste ( for bun Rieu) . I am disappointed in that . Service was great and the restroom was clean . They have sandwiches and snacks , rice plates on top of pho noodle soup .

    Pretty darn good, the restaurant is clean, the staff was very helpful and nice. The food came out fast as hell too, I ordered the Pho special and some spring rolls. Everything tasted really good and ill definitely be returning the next time I'm in town.

    Tonight, I'm in the South Bay Area. And I've seen this, a lot of times. I'm finally here at Cơm Tấm Thành Restaurant. I think out of the whole South Bay Area/East Bay, Newark is like my favorite place to be. This is only 4.1 miles away from the Tesla Factory. I didn't expect it to look as nice as this in here, I see they happen to have the Stage up, and this is another great event space to throw a Party or Banquet at. It's another late night. And It's a good day, for the usual Cơm Tấm Sườn Bò Đại Hàn or Korean BBQ Beef Platter. I like how they really seasoned the Beef, and it was nice and juicy. I was thinking this was going to be a 3.7-4.3 stars, but I give this 4.3 stars out of 5 stars. It was a solid Beef Platter.

    Shrimp 10. Pho Tai Soup
    Sonia L.

    I DoorDash and I loved it! To me pho is a hit or miss when ordering online for the first time BUT this place definitely is a HIT!!! Everything I needed was packed correctly, veggies and silverware included. $20.49 shrimp pho- LOVED every last piece, sip and noodle. Thank you.

    Pork 3. Banh Mi Sandwich
    Sandy N.

    Good: Plenty of parking Restaurant is huge with plenty of seating & quiet. Quick service Review: I was in the mood for a sandwich. It was either here or Togos. I picked here and ordered a banh mi. An old guy at the counter took my order. He seemed grumpy as if I had bothered him. I placed my order he told me 10 min. When my sandwich was ready he plopped it onto the counter. I said thank you and he didn't reply. Oh well. So about the sandwich, I get home and open it. I looked for jalapeños, cucumber, cilantro. There wasn't any in the sandwich, just pickled daikon and carrot, mayo too and oddly, iceberg lettuce. Bread was crisp and soft, tasted fresh. There wasn't a whole lot of meat, what meat was inside was tasty. Just wish there was more of it. I had almost asked for extra cilantro, thinking that it would be included. I paid $11 for an ok sandwich, I should have went to Togos (which is a minute away) at least then I would have gotten a well dressed sandwich for about the same price .

    7. CRISPY PANCAKE (Banh Xeo)
    Amy V.

    Family and I went for a late lunch around 5P~ Got the Pho Dat Biet, Bun Rieu, Bun Bo Hue, Com Suon and fresh coconut juice Food was hot and flavorful Service was quick Restaurant is huge and they have a stage for karaoke, which the server stated it was for parties~ I saw just one guy seating people, taking phone orders and accepting doordash orders- so yes service might not be as attentive as you would like, but the food is bomb My favorite was the crispy pancake (banh xeo) Super crunchy and veggies were fresh Coconut juice was very refreshing Lots of parking spaces Definitely coming back here when im in the area again!

    Com Tam with pork chop and egg
    Ed Y.

    I really like the other com tam (broken rice) restaurants in San Jose but because I wanted to go to a shaved ice place in Newark later I figured it would be easier to come here instead and I still think it was a mistake. The place is huge and that the venue was probably the Mehran that I used to go often which was a Pakistan restaurant so you can host a banquet there. The service is fine and good enough. My problem mainly has to do with the food especially the namesake com tam which is not only limited in choice. I'd consider this more of a pho place that happens to have com tam on the menu. The com tam itself is also not very good. Even the rice and the fish sauce are not good because the sauce feels more like dipping sauce for egg rolls than actual fish sauce. The egg cake and the shrimp cake are small and unsavory. The texture feels off as well. They do allow replacing the pork skin with an fried egg which is nice. The pho are also so so at best. The kids menu exists but not on the menu so you have to ask. The seafood pho states it has squid and shrimps but it's mostly fish and fake lobster balls. There are so many more better pho places that it makes no sense for me to come back.

    4. GOI GA - CHICKEN SALAD
    Angela L.

    Love that this place is open late! We were craving soup so we decided to try this place out. Large restaurant with plenty of seats. We ordered a chicken salad, combination pho, grilled chicken, and two thai teas. The pho was flavorful in broth, the grilled chicken was tasty, but two stars docked off due to the chicken on the salad not being cooked thoroughly. I still dream of the thai teas! Service was fast and easy and payment is through a self service kiosk which did not give us a problem. Overall, would give other dishes a try.

    34. Bun Rieu
    Sou L.

    This place is spacious and it's conveniently located in a strip mall with plenty of parking! The place is clean with ample seating. Service was, it was excellent! The lady who assisted us was very nice. It was our first time so I asked for recommendations. She proposed Bun Bo Hue or Bun Rieu. I ordered the Bun Rieu and was a bit disappointed. The broth was a bit too sweet for me. My friend enjoyed it though. Service - 5 stars Food was okay.

    Quite a large restaurant and very old-fashioned decor, definitely a spot for celebrating large occasions Staff were very accommodating for our party since we had some people showing up later, they were able to hold off on serving their food until they arrived, very sweet Food is seasoned very well, the soup that comes with the grilled pork chop is somehow better than the actual pho itself, pho is also good in its own respect Definitely a spot to go to when craving soup!

    I was surprised when I seen the inside of this establishment yes absolutely touch of class so beautiful and elegant imagine sitting there on your table ordering your tasty food that they take pride seasoning their food have all kinds of different kind of food that you could order and the way they take pride on preparing your food is beautifully done right they treat their customer with utmost hospitality this place is absolutely beautiful bringing your friends and family members you'll be proud to bring them at this restaurant and you'll enjoy their food with their recipe that tastes so good when you want to go to a place that you want to treat your your family your friends this is a place to be proud to bring them they won't be disappointed nor you won't be disappointed either so visit this restaurant and you'll enjoy yourself

Depending on day, long lines but it moves fast -- I came on a Saturday and it was extremely busy. I was #8 in line and spoke with another lady while waiting. We both agreed that for the price point, flavor, and quality, this spot beat the competitors out easily. Then I approached the register and a gentleman took my order, #6 extra meat. And I ordered a Banh Cuon as I got closer to the front. The bread, cold cuts... everything was fresh -- I remember when the sandwiches used to be $3 a piece. Now it has climbed to $8 due to the increase in price of ingredients. However, the taste, service, and quality did not suffer as a result. I love Banh Cuon. I open the fish sauce container and drown it. It soaks up the flavor and I avoid having to dip each slippery piece in the container. Overall, best quality for the price. Sandwiches are made by the same people that were there a decade ago, maybe even further.

Spring Rolls: Grilled pork & shrimp wrapped in rice paper with lettuce, cucumbers, chives, daikon & mint served with peanut sauce. These are probably the best Spring Rolls I've had in this area, the special sauce is definitely the grilled pork which is flavorful and tender and really elevates this simple appetizer. Short Rib Pho: Comes with a giant caveman rib sticking out. This was trendy a couple years ago but here is the meat is well cooked and seasoned and not just a gimmick.
