    Take out

    Wtf they gave me multiple slice of used lemons. And all the greenery are smash up to pieces. It's like they took all the left over from a table and put it into my to go order. Wtfffff!!!!

    It has been almost 18 years or so since I tried this spot last. The interior and exterior looks like it's been frozen in time. Not completely a bad thing but this place can benefit from a light refresh. Parking can be challenging and on this particular day, it looked like the wild Wild West out front. Patrons were parked on sidewalks and "made up" parking spots lol. We luckily found parking across the street pretty easily. There was plenty of seating for our party of 5 and a baby. We dined in the day after lunar new year so it may have been busier than a normal Wednesday lunch. The gentleman who took our order was efficient and informative. We asked about combining different style noodles in one bowl etc. He was quick to take our orders and the food was delivered shortly after. The accompanying herbs of Chinese celery, quick blanched (your choice of fresh or blanched) bean sprouts, sliced jalapeños and lemon wedges were abundant. Overflowing off the plate really. I appreciate a mountain of herbs and greens to accompany my noodle soups. The shrimp in the soup were ginormous and the protein was plentiful. The broth is flavorful and clean. Besides lemon and herbs I did not add any other condiments. For an average of $16-$18 per bowl, you are getting an exceptional value.

    This is one of the OG Vietnamese restaurants in downtown San Jose. My go-to for chicken pho is Pho Tau Bay on Senter, but I hadn't been to DaLat in 20+ years and decided to give it a go. Chef may have been a touch heavy with the MSG, but the broth was clean and strong, and the chicken breast was plentiful. Lots of fresh basil to add to the bowl as I went. Washed it down with a refreshing so da chanh (homemade lemon soda). The place wasn't particularly busy on a late Monday afternoon; but the customers at the two other tables were all Vietnamese, which I took as a good sign. Probably won't rush back, but I was glad to see them still in business.

    Best broth, always fresh veggies and prawns. Over the years the noodle soup is consistently high quality, no skimping on freshness and taste.

    The dry hu tieu with a combo of wide white noodle and thin yellow noodle. Tons of different meat with two large prawns!

    This place has been around forever and their food is still consistent, tasty and good service. The staff is much more friendly and easy going compared to a decade ago. They don't skimp on portion and give more than most restaurants! I ordered a small dry noodle (Hu Tieu) with a mixture of white wide noodle and the thin yellow noodle and it was full to the rim of the bowl. There were a lot of diff types of meat and two huge prawns! When we asked for a side of fried pork fat they gave us a full small bowl not even in a small dipping plate like most places would. My hubby ordered a large clear noodle soup and he could barely finish cuz the portion was huge! It's a hole in the wall type of place and not fancy, but you get more than you pay for and food is delish! I go here every time I crave for dry hu tieu.

    This place has been around since the late 70s definitely a "hole in the wall" with lots of flavor. The décor hasn't changed much over the decades, but you're not here for the ambiance, you're here for the food. Prices are about 15-20% lower than most other Vietnamese spots, especially the newer, trendier ones. It's the kind of place your grandparents would love, and the loyal, older crowd reflects that. They specialize in river prawn with rice or clear noodles, but the menu has plenty of classic Vietnamese comfort dishes. Portions are generous, flavors are bold, and yes, there's MSG but in the best way. Come hungry, and come for the food.

    Cellophane noodles with big shrimp
    Helen L.

    3.5 rating. They were very nice. We got there around 12:45 pm. Lunch crowd was leaving. Parking was half a block away. Had to go around the block. Their noodles were clear noodles and I do like it. The shrimps were big. Chicken slices were a bit dry. Lots of bean sprouts and their greens was different. My eating mate had the chicken mushroom with mixed veggies. Veggies were good (bok choy, broccoli cabbage). I didn't see much mushroom. The chicken slices was same as mine. The chicken seemed very dry. Tea was $1 per person. You order at the table and pay up front. Prices was good.

    I've been coming here ever since I was a kid and this place still holds a good place in my heart and tummy! My go-to is the combination tapioca noodles but the dry version with the soup on the side. One ordering. Don't forget to ask for an extra serving of special sauce and crispy pork fat. It's decadent but obviously delicious.. Their Vietnamese iced coffee is also one of my favorites in town and I get it every time as well. Highly recommend this local joint and don't be deterred from it's surroundings! It's in the sorta the cuts, but well worth it. At least for me (:

    Combo clear noodle, dry style with soup on the side!

    Great noodle spot! Had clear noodle combo there over 6x last 3 weeks, delicious foods and quick friendly services!

    Soupy and dry

    This place is a childhood favorite of the BF. It's also nostalgic for him since it's one of the places his father would take the family before going on a trip. He hasn't dined here in over 10 years and the parking is still as crappy as he remembered it; its downtown what do you expect. The menu for the most part is very straight forward with the choices and options, we were here for the Hieu Tieu. We came here right when they opened and we were the 2nd table being served while they were putting together a large togo order. Staff was friendly and they accepted credit cards. I ordered the non dry Hieu Tieu with regular noodles and the BF ordered the wet with clear noodles. The prawns were huge, portions were generous even for the small size, broth was flavorful, meat wasn't dry tasting, and the noodles had a nice chewy bite to them. Both were delicious and even though we ordered the small, there was still leftovers to take with us. Come early to catch a good parking spot.

    Ask the Community - Da-Lat

    An option for no MSG?

    Why? It's been proven that MSG isn't bad for you. It was perpetrated in the 70's by a racist guy who tried to defame Chinese restaurants. Countless studies and even university studies that have found MSG is like salt in terms of toxicity.

    Did the business open a second restaurant in Milpitas with the same name?

    Yes it used to be but the one in Milpitas location closed down!

    Does the hu tieu (dry) come in with sauce on the side besides the soup? I really want to try it but not sure how to order it or eat it! Tips are appreciated! lol

    They put the sauce in the bowl.. I usually ask for extra on the side cause I like it saucy! Dry style is the way to go with big noodles

My wife and I tried it for the first time, and you can tell right away this place has been around and knows what it's doing. Simple setup; steady crowd even on a Sunday night; always a good sign. I ordered the large chicken pho, and my wife had the chicken fried rice, which she really enjoyed. The pho was excellent; rich, flavorful broth; great noodles; and a portion size that humbled me. I couldn't quite finish it, which doesn't happen often. Only minor note; I would've liked a few more vegetables, but I'm sure they would've brought more if I asked. Service is quick and efficient. Like many traditional pho spots, you eat first, then go up to the register and tell them your table number to pay; seasoned move is to remember your number and handle it like a regular. Five stars from me. I'll definitely be back; next time I've got my eye on the brisket. Honestly, it's tough to find really good pho in this part of San Jose without heading up to North San Jose or Milpitas, but if you're in the Cambrian area, this might be your spot.
