    So we come here all the time the food is great but the staff is so rude we only order take out from this location, we get the same items each time so we are well aware how they're supposed to come. So today we placed a phone order and to our surprise on both of our they gave us double the rice and less than half the normal amount of chicken. I understand inflation but gaaawwwleee!! And when we called to inquire about it the woman on the phone was sooo rude and hostile and lied saying "it always comes like that" and as I stated before my family and I order all The time we know it's not! Anywho just avoid this location and go to the one by target instead. Way nicer and friendly staff

    Bun Bo Hue
    Timothy F.

    Where to start... let's begin with the positives. The place is clean, and the pho broth is still rich and flavorful -- definitely the highlight and what keeps me coming back. As for the bún bò Huế, I actually asked the waiter about it beforehand and she mentioned it wasn't very traditional and that she personally didn't prefer it. Honestly, I should've trusted that. It wasn't terrible, but it definitely wasn't the best or what I was hoping for. I'll stick to their pho moving forward. I also ordered a to-go soup for my dad, and this is where things were disappointing. The packaging just isn't great -- especially compared to other pho spots nearby. The soup was spilt all inside the trunk of the car. They don't double-bag it, the container itself felt slippery and not very secure. In my opinion, pho like this can be a bit hazardous for takeout if it's not packaged well. To be fair, the spill of the box was partially my fault while juggling my phone, but the container didn't help the situation. I'm mainly sharing this as feedback on the takeout packaging. For me, this is a place I'd rather dine in than order to-go. Overall, it's not a bad spot -- the pho is solid -- but it's not quite my go-to. I'd come back, just with adjusted expectations.

    Fresh Spring Rolls

    Pho 1 on Sonoma Blvd is officially the restaurant I will be dining at whenever I am shopping at 168. The restaurant has shut down Stockpot. This is the place to go to for Fresh Springrolls. First time I dine at Pho 1 right away I was seated and they were able to take my order. I order a Fresh Springroll, use the restroom to wash my hands and when I return my Springrolls was already on my table. That is what I call fast service. The Springrolls were delicious! A good proportion size Springrolls. The inside of Pho 1 was clean. The restaurant keeps up with clean tables for people to sit down at. Everytime I dine inside Pho 1 I don't see a dirty table. Keep up with the great service Pho 1

    Pho and Grilled Chicken Vermicelli

    Generous portions for your dollar. Fast and professional service. Free parking in lot. Lovely ambiance of talking and tv. Tasty dishes and drinks.

    Food is good but the place is very unsanitary bugs on table while eating, flys in food, the service is also terrible and disrespectful. One employee started yelling at me and my family and accused us of not wanting to pay because we brought up bugs being In our food, he also said a rude and racist remark saying" we are both immigrants" there was a lot of stereotypes and unprofessionalism going on!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO NO ONE!!!!!

    Delicious pho

    Talk about the fastest service in town! Normally you will have to wait for your food to come out a little later, but no, spring rolls check! summer rolls check! Pho check! Thai tea check! And overall delicious! Lots of room and nice lighting in the restaurant. Lots of free and ample parking. Enjoy!

    #33 large Pho dumplings
    Lawrence S.

    This is the best Pho in Vallejo because it's so so fresh and flavorful. Not to mention the servers are here to get your delicious for to you. Yes this place has a large menu but you can't go wrong with their Pho. I ate the #33 which is pho with dumplings. Great seating for all and a really clean restaurant.

    Grilled Beef Vermicelli
    Reeven S.

    Over the years, the price has gone up, but so did their serving size! This Pho restaurant is pretty solid - excellent service, quality dishes, and a very great choice for hangover cleansing. The restaurant is spacious and can hold large parties. I usually get the Pho soup here, which has always been so delicious. But on this day, I ordered the grilled beef vermicelli, and it was also a fantastic dish. The portion size is a lot and this is definitely a shareable dish. The grilled beef is so flavorful. The dish itself is already amazing, but adding more chili oil to it definitely enhances the flavor. This place is a very solid choice for whatever you're craving - soup, noodles, or rice dishes.

    ##9 - Thin Sliced Steak, Flank & Brisket w/ Rice Noodles. (TNG) with hofun noodles
    Ariana V.

    I've been coming to this location for years, and I especially miss their banh mi deli being open. I stopped by for some pho and I was pleasantly surprised with their menu change. The inside is spacious and tons of seating. The service is fast and on point. I ordered their #9 with hofun noodles because I prefer the thicker rice noodles! I also got a Thai iced tea. They were able to accommodate my request since the hofun noodles were only listed on the other pho options and not the beef side. The soup came out immediately. The broth was delicious and fresh. The meat was tender and flavorful. They provided extra limes when I asked too. I'll always come to this pho spot over the others in the area!

    Tried the shrimp noodle soup while my husband enjoyed the shrimp cakes and beef pho, every bite was delicious. Will definitely return!

    ##22 - Rice Noodle Soup w/ Shrimp, Fish Cake, Sliced Pork & Chicken
    Alvin C.

    Not sure if this place is under new management but the workers were all new faces to us. Our last lunch here was a terrible experience. We had ordered soup and fried rice but never came. After we noticed 3 customers, who came after us, had received their orders, we had to follow up with the staff. The guy just said I don't know and he just puts in the order and the kitchen makes it. Obviously, our order was missed. This has never happened before, but as I mentioned, the staff looked new to us. Maybe they're still working on their ordering process. Food was still good. The portion of the fried rice is less from our past visits but otherwise, taste the same.

    Lanita S.

    My number go to spot for the best Pho in Vallejo. The service was quick and all the staff that I met was super nice and I loved the vibe and the chill warm energy. Definitely worth every visit every time!!

    This is their combo plate and under those enormous epic fried chicken wings is a pork chop and one egg roll.

    Pho 1 in Vallejo is a must-visit for authentic Vietnamese cuisine! Their extensive menu features everything from their renowned pho to flavorful rice plates and noodle bowls. Portions are generous, loaded with fresh vegetables, and packed with authentic flavors from perfectly prepared pork, shrimp, and crispy egg rolls. Every dish tasted amazing and authentic, showcasing the vibrant tastes of Vietnam. If you're in the Vallejo, California area and craving top-notch Vietnamese food, Pho 1 is the place to go. Absolutely delicious and worth every bite! Service was super attentive and the place fills up around 5 to 8 pm making the main dining room have an authentic ethnic food hall vibe! Highly recommend! Spence

The dining room is modern, clean, and inviting, with high ceilings and plenty of seating. While I was initially surprised by the wait since I was the only customer, the restaurant quickly filled with diners and takeout orders, making it obvious this place has built a loyal following. I ordered the new Wonton Ramen Soup, spicy and an order of lumpia. As a ramen fan, I can honestly say the broth was outstanding, rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The generous portion was loaded with fresh bok choy, perfectly cooked egg, green onions, and large wontons, creating a delicious fusion of classic wonton soup and ramen with a Tonkotsu broth. I also appreciated the oversized ladle-style soup spoon, which made it easy to enjoy every sip of that incredible broth and every bite of the fresh ingredients. The lumpia was crispy and good, but fairly standard. My only disappointment was the packaged sweet and sour sauce. A house-made dipping sauce would have paired much better with the quality of the food. The restaurant itself was very clean, but I'd recommend moving the bussing cart with used bowls, plates, and trash to the back of the kitchen. It's a small detail, but keeping it out of guests' view would make the dining room feel even more polished and inviting. Overall, Ramon 101 was good. Great broth, fresh ingredients, generous portions, make this a place I'll definitely return to. It's easy to see why the locals keep coming back.

It's a small, strip mall restaurant with plenty of parking. The decor is unique with the owner's love of Lego! Her creations are displayed everywhere in the restaurant. Every time we come in, tables are pretty full. They need more wait staff to handle the crowd. Peak weekend hours like Friday evenings are crazy busy for takeout. They are so popular sometimes their phone is turned off in order to handle the orders. So for takeout during those times, you have to go in person, wait in a long line the length of the restaurant to place an order, then find a seat or wait outside for up to an hour. Meanwhile the tables are full of customers dining. Why do people go through with this when you see other restaurants in the area empty at dinner hours? The food is good and worth the wait. We try to plan our eat-in dining at 3 Star outside of the crowded times, even coming from as far as Fairfield. Dad loves the Beef with Bitter Melon, his favorite dish that Mom used to cook. I don't think we've had a bad dish here, so order whatever you like. OK, the Tomato Beef Pan-fried Noodles is too tomato-saucy red and sugary sweet. My favorite is the Seafood Pan-fried Noodles. Their Chinese Mushrooms with Chinese Vegetables is also good, but they only have bok choy and Dad likes gai lan / Chinese broccoli. The Garlic Sauce Chicken Wings are spicy and really tasty.

We ordered 3 plates of their garlic sauce wings (12 per plate), 2 plates of shrimp fried rice, 1 plate of beef chow fun, 2 order of lumpia Shanghai (20 pieces each), 2 plates of sweet and sour pork, 1 plate of garlic string beans and 1 crispy pata.
