absolutely best bun bo hue and pho hands down, and the price too SHOCKED ME! most of the time most places over charge, but this place you get the best bang for your buck and the flavor of both dishes felt like a moms home cooked meal. FOOD : This will for sure be our new go to spot, we ordered the iced tea, bun bo hue, pho, and durian smoothie. Drinks were incredibly refreshing and paired nicely with our main dishes. We also got the spring rolls to start and the veggies used were fresh and nothing was overly soggy or rotten like most other places. SERVICE : Our waitress was this kind vietnamese auntie who assisted us and kept checking on us for water refills, and kindly asked how the food tasted. Inside looked like you were back in vietnam with the not too overtop decor and quiet interior. UPDATE : Came here again the day after because we wanted to try more of the dishes. We got the com tam and my boyfriend could not stop smiling the entire time while eating this dish. Portions were really good and the meat was well cooked and seasoned to perfection. EVERYONE PLS COMEEEE the server was so nice and gave us free sodas on the house because she recognized us too, so sweet! read more

I came here on a weekday night and it wasn't busy at all! This restaurant is pretty small in size so service was fast and efficient. Pretty quiet for a Tuesday night which was nice. I got the Bún bò Huế, it wasn't too spicy and the broth had a good flavor. We also got an order of the crispy fried chicken. They were fried to a nice crisp! And had a nice strong flavor. I also got the grilled chicken rice plate to go and the chicken was sweet and tender! Overall, this was a pleasant experience here and would recommend if you're looking for a quick Vietnamese spot! read more

I really came here on a whim for lunch, to try it out since it's a 5 mins drive from home for my work break. I was pretty shocked after hearing so many mixed reviews. My experience however was great and the lady whom I assume is one of the owners was completely sweet. The meat portions to noodle ratio definitely beats another specific shop I gave poor ratings too. I'm more than likely coming back since I enjoyed myself and the food. read more

10/21/25 I just had to put an update on my phone journey in San Jose. This is the 7th pho I've been to and so far it is the best! The pho broth is so flavorful, it came out hot, and all the meat you'd expect from a combination pho was in there. I've been to other pho in the area that offers, "combination" pho, but they lack the tripe, tendon, or meatballs. This place also has shrimp cake, and bun Bo hue. For my first time at this specific pho and for it to be this good?? I will definitely come back! Also plenty of seating and parking. I'm excited to try the rest of the menu! read more

It was nice having Tess and her bf join us for dinner. Though Gavin said he would order pho, he ended up ordering a rice plate. I originally wanted to try Pho Dang but this place offered a variety which was why I chose to come here. Tess said that their bun rieu is really good. I don't recall what her bf ordered but Gavin ordered the Korean short rib rice plate and I ordered their pho dac biet. Broth was flavorful. A bit lacked on the meat but otherwise no complaints. Parking was easy and they accept cards. Food came out relatively fast. I did not care for their disposable wooden chopsticks but I get it - one less thing to worry about and just toss once customer is done. read more

Came here for my mum's bday lunch and we ordered a bunch of stuff: spring rolls (4/5) -- very fresh ingredients, good ratio between all the components egg rolls (5/5) -- not greasy but super crispy, meaty and flavorful filling oxtail pho (3/5) -- my dad ordered this and the oxtail was still really tough so I wouldn't recommend it unless you like chewy oxtail. He did say the broth was very deep yet clean and the noodles absorbed the broth well chow fun (3/5) -- the noodles easily fell apart, much softer than usual noodles for chow fun, otherwise ok dish if you like seafood and celery pork banh mi (5/5) -- my mum got this and said she enjoyed it a lot beef/shrimp vermicelli bowl (3/5) -- I ordered this and the ingredients were all fresh, but the beef was too salty while the rest of the bowl had little flavor unless I got a bite with mint. The sauce that came with it was good, but overall the entire dish needed more seasoning beef rice plate (3/5) -- my brother agreed that the beef was too salty and ended up needing to take someone else's rice to finish his meat I would come back to try the pho and the banh mi, not so sure about the other items we already tried. read more

iPho is a new noodle place. Plenty of parking available as it's in a large plaza and next to Bonchon. Mostly indoor seating but possibly some outside. I didn't really look as I entered on one side of the restaurant. It appears that they have two entrances. The service was friendly enough. The restaurant is new or newly remodeled. Two non-gender restrooms available. iPho Dac Bien Bo Vien: special rare steak, well done flank, brisket, tendon, tripe, and beef ball (4/5). Served with the typical herbs but no culantro. The soup came out piping hot and I saw my rare beef quickly turn from red to gray brown. The broth was flavorful and I could taste the cardamon and cinnamon which I usually can't. It was delicious. read more

Their grilled meats on Bun Tom Thit Nuong are second to none. The staff are very friendly and attentive without being disruptive. Impressive Vietnamese music performances and pretty scenery on big-screen TVs are a MUCH better alternative than sports. read more

Tonight, I felt like doing something different. I wanted some Phở áp chảo. Phở áp chảo is the complete opposite of traditional Phở. I'm going to say something unpopular. Sorry to break it to you, but there's no such thing as a Phở Khô. For some reason, some people out there think putting the word Khô on everything makes it new or trendy, when it really doesn't. There's only Hủ Tiếu or Mì Gà Khô, or no Khô. There's just no such thing as a Phở Khô, I don't know who made that up out there. The only thing that should be Khô is Beef Jerky, Apricot, and Sage. And I never been a Phở Khô type of person, I always went with the Phở áp chảo if not the usual Noodle Soup. It reminds me of Mì Xào Giòn or Stir-Fried Crunchy Egg Noodle. I remember, the first Phở áp chảo I ever had was from the South Bay Area, that was a very long time ago, like 24 years. This actually brings me back to some fond memories. I'm here at iPho in SJ, tonight. Get it? iPho? I like the name, it's catchy. This is one of the best looking Beef Phở áp chảo I ever had, it looks phenomenal, slightly impressive. This version is just done very different. The Gravy was packed with flavor. I' m surprised the Noodles soaked up the gravy like a sponge in a good way. And I also had to get it with a Chè Ba Màu, I haven't had a Chè Ba Màu in a long time, it was refreshing, and it hit. I was thinking this was going to be a 3.7-4.3 stars, but I give this 4.2/4.3 stars out of 5 stars. read more

Got takeout here for the first time and I got the #3 I believe, it was beef that had a sweet teriyaki or sweet marinade. The takeout was fresh, and it was a big serving it provided me with two separate meals. Everything was packaged separately including the meat. The broth was delicious and not watered down unlike another pho place I visited once for takeout. I'd recommend, it was pretty empty inside around 7pm on a weekday maybe because there are a lot of pho locations in the similar radius. read more

Never really had a great experience going to an Asian restaurant 1 hour before they close. Yep, customers were still coming in, but felt like the owner wanted to go home. She was nice enough, but rushed us through our ordering. My family wanted pho and saw that all the small bowls were $13.50 and large $14.50, but 2 of my kids only wanted steak and meatballs. The owner said sure, no problem. I assumed it would only be those prices but ended up paying $3 dollars more for meatballs added to their steak only bowl = $16.50/$17.50! That's more than a dac biet (combo) bowl!! Should've done that instead. And wouldn't mind paying $3 more if it was a side of at least 5-6 meatballs, but they gave only 4 quarter pieces = 1 meatball, which was ridiculous. Mind you, this is a small Asian meatball, not a large spaghetti one. Owner kept cleaning around our table and refilling the utensils at our table as we ate, so we felt rushed to finish so she can go home. Mind you, this was an hour before closing. She wasn't rude, but it felt she wanted to close up and we didn't feel comfortable eating there while she is cleaning around us. Felt like we were in a stereotypical scene of an Asian restaurant in a movie! Just needed her to start moping under our feet!! lol. 5 of us literally spent 35 mins there TOTAL, never eaten so fast at a sit down restaurant! Not even sure why we gave tip when all they did was bring out our food. My little one finished his bowl but at other pho places the serving is larger so we always had to take home. So cheaper prices if you DON'T order off the menu but you get less food. My family said that the pho was ok. My bun bo was ok too, had a decent amount of meat, but needed more depth (flavor). Wish this could've been our family's new favorite pho place bc of Yelp ratings, but unfortunately, this was our first time and probably our last. read more

IPHO is back serving to our community! This is my second time here! I love their pho! The beef soup broth taste authentic! Today weather, I tried something different! Their Vegetarian Vermicelli bowl with Egg rolls! The two pieces of egg rolls are good and crispy! The sauce is made of Vegetarian ingredients, which is perfect! I also order a cup of green ice tea! The cold cup of Ice Green Tea was very refreshing for this weather! Customer services is excellent! The lady is nice and friendly! The food runner works hard carrying bowls of pho! The kitchen is friendly and talkative cause I can hear him talk! Inside the restaurant tables and chairs are clean , neat and organized! These are real plants next to Buddha area! The decoration on the ceiling moving looks great. The portrait on the wall has a bowl of pho on the bamboo plater is beautiful! Make the restaurant feel warm and loving! Prices are reasonable! read more

We came for an early lunch last Sunday to check this restaurant out. Upon entering, we were seated right away. The facility is nice and recently remodeled. We ordered: 1) Bún Riêu: flavorful broth and very tasty - 4.5 stars 2) Bún Bò Huế: excellent broth and tasty - 4 stars 3) Phở Tái Đập: very nice and tasty overall- 4 stars 4) Phở Đặc Biệt Bò Viên: same as above - 4 stars 5) Mì Xào Giòn Chay: crunchy noodles and good taste - 4 stars 6) Cà Phê Sữa Đá: strong and excellent flavor, not overly sweet- 4.5 stars 7) Chả Giò & Chả Giò Chay: very crunchy and tasty but a bit oily 4 stars The restaurant menu is very extensive so we will be back to try other dishes. Along with tasty foods, decent portions, good prices, good services, and excellent location (next to Tesla Supercharger), this new restaurant is a keeper in my book. read more

So excited to get some soup since I was sick, we called in the order for two large chicken pho. They said 10 minutes which I thought was really quick. We picked it up. It was cold. We had to reheat it. All the fixings, entail of bean sprouts, lemon, and cilantro that's it. The broth lacked favor. The chicken was scarce. Did I mention how cold it was. It was pretty cold. Will not be eating here again for sure. There's so many other good pho placed in San Jose. read more

This is a good Vietnamese food restaurant to eat at the price is fair not too pricey and not cheap either but it's like that every where now days prices to eat anywhere is expensive regardless I like the owner she's really nice and always making sure we good whenever we go there to eat . The only thing that I don't like about the place is that is kinda small in there it's not that roomy in there and it gets really stuffy and there is never any air conditioner it's always super hot in there because there's no window to open up so the only way you can get a breezy is by having them leave the front door open other wise it's like a sauna in there other than I would rate the food to be a five but the atmosphere and climate like a four due to the ventilation. read more
