    Traditional Summer Rolls
    Sonya E.

    Met my girl here for lunch as she was working in the area for the day. Strangely, Pho 408 is tucked behind Oakridge Mall (in the same parking lot) but it works. The mall entrance leads you immediately to the front of the restaurant. They did a great job with incorporating an outdoor seating patio to maximize the usage of space -- and to attract shoppers walking by with the wonderful aromas of the Vietnamese cuisine. We didn't try their pho but that will be for a future visit. We ordered the following for a party of two: * Gỏi Cuốn Tôm Thịt - Traditional Summer Rolls ($8.95) * Bánh Xèo Chảo Sài Gòn - Saigon Sizzling Pancake ($14.95) * Bánh Hỏi Thịt Nướng - DIY Rice Paper Rolls with Grilled Pork Skewers ($21.95) * Tôm Rang Bơ Tỏi Mì Tỏi - Garlic Prawns with Garlic Noodle ($21.95) * Trà Trái Vải - Lychee Ice Tea ($7.95) * Soda Chanh - ($7.95) Everything was delicious -- as close to authentic flavors as you're going to get in the area (South San Jose). My only feedback would be to have more fresh veggies for the Banh Xeo and DIY wrapping, and maybe a more traditional dipping sauce -- the fish sauce wasn't potent enough for me, haha. Service was excellent. Between rotating servers supporting the outdoor patio, we were checked in on a couple of times and were waited on promptly throughout our visit. Everyone who attended to our table did so with a smile and wonderful enthusiasm. All in all, I was happy with our experience and would gladly return to try other menu items.

    I am usually very skeptical about pho places in South San Jose. This place really changed the narrative for me and my family. Everything we ordered was DELICIOUS. We definitely found our new go-to spot!

    Rare slice of steak

    From First Visit to Instant Favorite I had lunch at Pho 408 with my son, who has been here many times, but this was my first visit--and it definitely won't be my last. The restaurant itself immediately stood out to me. I love the layout and décor--it's welcoming, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. The bar seating is beautiful, the tables are comfortable with plenty of room, and there's a great outdoor patio area that I'm already looking forward to trying when the weather warms up. The staff was friendly, accommodating, and attentive from the moment we arrived. Service was impeccable without feeling rushed. Now the food--absolutely excellent. The pho was served with the option of fresh rice noodles, which made a noticeable difference. I ordered the rare slice of steak pho, and the portions were generous compared to most places. The steak tasted fresh (not frozen like you often get elsewhere), the vegetables were crisp and plentiful, and the broth arrived piping hot--exactly how pho should be. We also started with the garlic butter wings, and they were so good that we ate most of them before I even remembered to take a photo. That probably tells you everything you need to know! Overall, Pho 408 is easily one of the best pho spots in the area. Fresh ingredients, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere--I highly recommend it.

    Came here for lunch and overall had a solid experience. We started with the fresh spring rolls -- super fresh, packed with herbs, and the shrimp was plump. The dipping sauce had great flavor and balance. The garlic noodles were really good -- simple but flavorful, nicely seasoned without being too heavy. The pork BBQ platter was well grilled and flavorful, and the portion was generous. We also ordered No. 35 (beef platter) which came with rice, soup, and salad -- great value for the price. The beef was tender and nicely cooked, and I liked that it felt like a complete meal with the sides included. Service was friendly and the food came out quickly. The space is casual and comfortable -- good for a relaxed lunch. Overall, solid Vietnamese spot for comforting plates and good portions. Would come back.

    Wow. This place is legit. It's located inside the mall right next to 99 Ranch. The restaurant was decent sized and pretty clean. The service is very good. They checked on us multiple times for water and other things. My family ordered the pho dac biet (combo). The broth was perfect. The fresh noodles were great also. My favorite was the Bo Ne sizzling plate. Everything that I ate there was really good. I'll be coming back here more often.

    I've eaten at Pho 408 multiple times and the quality has always been consistent. Just because the location is at mall don't let it fool you. The pho and other food options on the menu are very good. Service has always been very great here as well, they always greet you and make sure you're taken care of. It's such a gem to Oakridge mall. The pho broth has been consistent and savory. The #1 combo pho also is packed with a lot of meat. I always leave so full and have it in my rotation of favorite pho spots in San Jose.

    I have been coming here quite often. It's becoming my go-to spot when I am looking for some warm and comforting that is nearby home. The broth is consistently rich with lots of meat. There are always indoor or outdoor seating in case if you need a furry friend. The service is fast, and the customer service is good! Totally recommend. :)

    I went here for my anniversary dinner . It's conveniently located inside the oakridge mall , right in front of the 99 Ranch market . There were quite few people inside the restaurant when we arrived on a Friday at 7 pm but they didn't make us wait too long to get seated . Once we were seated , our server came and explained us some of the dishes . Food was super duper good and the portion size was really large . We realized after a while that we ordered more than what we can have . We had to bring some of it back home . I really liked the fish sauce wings and the caramalized catfish . It came with 3 full pieces of catfish , rice , salad ,broth and the server asked me if I would like to have spicy dip kinda thing with it and he warned me it's is quite spicy . I had that as well . Everything was super good . We were there with our kids and the staff was super caring and made sure we are taken care of properly. The server saw my younger one struggling little bit with height of the table and asked if I need a booster seat ( my younger one doesn't like being seated in a child seat so I was happy with the booster) . All in all it was a really nice experience. I am gonna go back here soon .

    Rice that came with the hot & sour fish soup

    I wanted to try a new Vietnamese restaurant for lunch and found Pho 408 was close by in the Oakridge mall They are located across from the entrance of Ranch 99 inside the Westfield Oakridge Mall. There is an ample amount of parking outside of the mall near the restaurant. The restaurant was decorated very nicely with many seating options. When we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the staff and quickly shown to our table. We were given menus and cold water was quickly brought to our table. After the browsing the menu we decided to order. I ordered the vermicelli salad bowl with pork skewers and my husband ordered the hot & sour with catfish served with rice. We also ordered the imperial rolls to share. Our appetizer came out first. The egg rolls were piping hot. You only get 3 per order, which I thought was strange. Usually at all other Vietnamese restaurants you get an even 4 egg rolls per order. They were pretty amazing. They had a nice crunch and were filled with pork and shrimp. The dipping sauce was very good and had a bit of a spicy kick. We really enjoyed them. Our main entrees came out. My husband enjoyed his hot & sour fish soup. There was quite a large portion of fish inside it. My vermicelli salad with pork skewers was amazing. I think out of all the Vietnamese restaurants we've gone to where I've ordered this same dish, this was by far the best I've had. The grilled pork was so juicy and full of flavor. The vermicelli and salad were amazing with the fish sauce dressing. It was outstanding! The service was also excellent. I needed some soy sauce and they quickly brought me some for my meal. The portion size of the food was large. I would definitely come back again. I'd like to try their five spice chicken rice plate next time.

    Pretty solid spot for being apart of a Mall/Shopping Center. I ordered one of the beef pho's with fresh noodles and the broth came out really nice and clear. The staff were really sweet and provided whatever I needed to spice up my bowl. I'm not a fan of the type of chili oil they had but didn't mind trying it. If you're shopping at Oakridge, give this place a try and walk off your calories inside the mall afterwards!

    Pho Dac Biet. Extremely flavorful.
    Tram N.

    A lot of varieties to choose from including vegetarian options. There is outdoor seating, clean, and inviting space. Service was warm and relatively quick. Gavin ordered their com bo luc lac and I ordered their pho dac biet. I have been sick for 3 weeks; tested negative for the flu and covid yet I am not getting better. I should have eaten a vegetarian diet today per the lunar calendar, but I was not feeling well, and wanted pho. Skeptical at first, but I was quickly proven wrong. The broth is clean and flavorful. A generous amount of tender cuts of meat and tendon. The herbs were fresh. Gavin took one bite of the shaken beef and became a fan instantly. We will return. Next time I will ask for iced water. They gave us room temperature water when we sat down (major plus), but I typically don't want to be a difficult customer, so we just let it be.

    Service was friendly and attentive. Welcoming hosts and peaceful ambiance. We tried the crispy chicken and Pho . Generous portions and flavorful broth, fresh ingredients, melting in the mouth meat. Definitely try this place if you're craving a good Pho.

    Passion fruit Panna cotta
    Cin V.

    This is your typical Vietnamese spot, so don't expect the cleanliness and service to be top notch. Nevertheless, the food is amazing! The pho broth was delicious! The Banh Khot was perfectly crispy. There was so many items on the menu that I wanted to order, but I couldn't because I knew I'd be too full. The passion fruit Panna Cotta was creamy with the perfect amount of sour and sweet. I seriously cannot wait to be back to try all the other menu items in the future. This was our first time here and will definitely not be our last.

They are open mostly during lunch hours and close at 5 or 6 at night. This parking lot is not hard to park in.

Also, a variety of chips and beverages for purchase. I ordered the cold roast beef (#1) and added avocado to it. All sandwiches come standard with lettuce, tomato, onion, mustard, mayo, and pepperocini. I got the small-sized sandwich and felt like it was pretty large! They had a variety of bread options, including rolls and sliced bread, and I picked sourdough. Everything was freshly made! There are a couple of tables outside, and more tables inside. They did have a sign saying they don't have a bathroom for customers. I saw a lot of people picking up catering orders. We will definitely return next time we are in the mood for a fresh sandwich.
