    Chicken salad could use more seasoning on chicken but a decent choice
    Sarah T.

    The food is still good. I love the chicken salad. It's the best salad in CV. The staff are super friendly and happy. Thank you

    Pork Chop Rice (5 stars) Est. 950 cal, P43g, C94g, F33g - obviously shareable
    Daniel C.

    Pho 510 is located on the top floor of the Castro Valley Marketplace, which is a food court/grocery similar to a mini version of Emeryville's Public Market. Its a good sized restaurant and has a bit of a modern sports bar feel, with decorative wall art and FIFA World Cup Playing. We came here for lunch and ordered: Pork Chop Rice (5 stars) - The pork was bone-in, thin, and packed with sweet-savory flavor. BBH - Wife seemed to enjoy this classic Vietnamese noodle dish with lemongrass broth and thinly-sliced beef shank. I tasted some of the broth and it was pretty good. Grilled Chicken Vermicelli (4 stars) - I liked this dish too but to be honest I was a bit nervous eating it. The chicken was skin-on and thick. The meat was juicy and seasoned but man it was on the verge of being undercooked, only it was not and had no pink spots. Kudos to the Chef but I'm actually okay with sacrificing some flavor and having a firmer texture next time. With such a big and busy restaurant you'll have to be proactive in flagging down the servers. Service was friendly though and they have clean restrooms in the back of the facility.

    Never expected this, but this place has probably one of the best beef phoI've ever had in the Bay Area. I have been to the marketplace numerous times and new restaurant was on the second floor, but never had time to try. I'm glad I finally did. The rice noodle was chewy and the soup was flavorful, but the star was the rare rib eye beef and the brisket! They were both not only full of flavors but super tender! I could tell the beef was of high end grade and cut. Just for this I would go back again. We also got tasty egg rolls. The staff was friendly and there are plenty of tables to sit at. Being in the marketplace it also felt open and comfortable. Highly recommended!

    Shrimp spring roll

    Pho-510 is a great Vietnamese place in the Castro Valley Marketplace. The staff were all wearing shirts with an "Eat Healthy Leave Happy" tagline. This summarizes a vibe the owners want to make obvious. The owner made certain that all parties felt loved for coming. Pho-510 is women owned and the owner we talked with has a Vietnamese heritage. We had one of the chicken soups to which we added a large portion of steamed vegetables. We had a mix but the owner volunteered to make a custom mix from her list of vegetables. We started with a shrimp spring roll as pictured. The sauce appeared to be a peanut sauce. It added nicely to the spring rolls. The Pho soup was nicely prepared and had a large portion of chicken. We really liked the combination of flavors. We need to get back there on our next visit to get you some more pictures. We visit the marketplace regularly to get bread from Seven Hills Baking, meat from Barrons and produce from Castro Valley Natural Grocery. So now we have a great place for lunch. We strongly recommend you give them a try.

    Extremely solid pho place! I love the vibe and the servers and waitstaff were really friendly and very attentive as well (we had two servers drop by while we were waiting for our friend to check on us). I particularly loved the garlic fries and really enjoyed my beef ribeye and brisket pho. The beef was tender and slightly chewy (the way I like it)!

    Pho 510 was a surprisingly nice find for Vietnamese food in CV! I was in CV on a recent Saturday with my family for an event. My son in-law suggested Vietnamese food at this restaurant for lunch after finding it on a Google search. We arrived about 12:45pm and were immediately seated. We were lucky because a steady flow of patrons started to arrive. Their menu had a good variety which made it challenging to decide what to order. Upon finally deciding we placed our orders and they quickly arrived. We all really liked what we ordered: Crispy egg roll, Banh Mi chicken sandwich, Beef Brisket Pho noodles and Grilled Pork Bun Vermicelli bowl. Our consensus was all of the dishes we had were flavorful. Plus they had Vietnamese Egg Coffee really hit the spot! Very friendly service and the dining area was neat and clean. Nice atmosphere with large screen TVs (showing World Cup finals!). I usually go to Pho Play when I'm in CV, but next time I will have to come back here to Pho 510.

    Finally get to dine here It's pretty lively and busy Orders and diners come and go Servers run from tables to kitchen constantly non stop That's a good sign The beef noodle soup is delicious and aromatic with herbs Pork chop is charred well and juicy love the sides of steam pork egg. The experience was great

    Pho with Brisket
    Sabrina S.

    This cute little restaurant is located upstairs in the CV Marketplace. There's a few parking spots on the street out front, but there's also a parking lot next to/behind the building. My mom brought me & my grandparents one night to check it out since it opened recently. She told us she's been there a couple times since they opened & there was a bit of a wait, but luckily when we came, we were seated right away. There's about 15-20 total tables to dine in. Once you arrive, there's a host stand where you check in & they'll get you seated. Once we were seated, we were greeted by one of the friendly servers & given the menus along with water. We noticed on the menu that Monday-Friday from 3-5pm is 15% off appetizers, so we got the shrimp spring rolls to share. I ordered the pho with brisket & enjoyed it - it was a good amount of noodles and meat & the broth was flavorful. I'd definitely come back again the next time I'm in Castro Valley :)

    Grilled Pork Vermicelli Bowl
    Terrysue T.

    Came here with some friends. I ordered the Grilled Pork Vermicelli Bowl, and we shared the Banh Beo Chen (Vietnamese Steamed Rice Cakes). The Grilled Pork Vermicelli Bowl was good! Loved it. I would order it again. Portions were generous. It could possibly be two meals, but decided to just finish it since I mixed it all together with the fish sauce. The Banh Beo Chen was good as well! Never had those before, but would order it again! The owner came to our table to make sure everything was okay. Very sweet lady. So nice. Definitely would come back to order the same thing or to try other things as well. Hope this place stays around for a long time.

    The rice pork plate is BEST thing we've tried here! The meat is perfectly flavored and cooked. The rice pork place also comes with some soup, and some pickled veggies so it's the perfect balance. The pho here is good as well, but I come here craving soup and noodles and end up getting the pork plate! Located upstairs inside the food market! There's also a parking lot in the back of the market that I've always been able to find parking in!

    Grilled pork bun. A good amount of meat!
    Sandra K.

    This place is a keeper! I came here on a Friday for lunch and it was a packed house, almost every table was filled. Their menu looks pretty solid with standard Vietnamese dishes and then some. I ordered the grilled pork bun. I'm usually pretty picky about this dish but they did a good job. The ratio of the ingredients were good - including the meat. My friend had the chicken rice and it was a good amount of food too. I'd love to go back to try their pho and banh beo. Service was excellent. Super chill space upstairs at the marketplace. Will be back!

    Maria J.

    Friendly service and tasty food. Vietnamese coffee is strong and refreshing. Cherimoya shake was so yummy. Had the combination fried rice and it was a generous serving. Grilled pork rice plate was on point. Tender, flavorful pork slices with steamed rice, veggies and soup. I will go back to this place. I just dont get being charged 3% for using credit card.

    Grilled pork chop over rice
    Anthony H.

    We have dined in the Castro Valley Marketplace many times, and I don't know how we missed Pho 5-10. It is such a gem. The staff were so friendly on our visit, and the food was really delicious with generous portions. The restaurant is on the second floor mezzanine level so there was an open floor plan. On one wall was a mural of the beautiful Halong Bay in Vietnam. Perhaps it is because the location is inside a market hall that we didn't have high expectations, and the extensive menu also gave us second thoughts on whether the kitchen can execute well on such broad offerings. Since this is our first time here, we ordered our usual standards- beef pho, grilled beef over rice, grilled pork chops over rice, grilled chicken over rice vermicelli, and shrimp salad. The beef pho came first. The broth tasted phenomenal, and the beef slices were thin and succulent. It came with fresh and delicate herbs and green chiles, which we quickly add to the broth. Next came the grilled meats, and both the grilled beef and pork chops had that smoky grilled flavor, and the marinade was sensational. The plates were huge and on it there were big mounds of rice, generous salads on the side, and a small bowl of clear broth. A small dish of fish sauce was provided if you want to add it to the rice and salad for more flavor. As we were waiting for the next dish, our server came out and apologetically informed us that they had just run out of the grilled chicken, and the chef is preparing a fresh batch, but we would need to wait around 25 minutes for the meat to be seasoned. We didn't want to wait so we opted for the grilled pork, and it was a good choice, as the grilled pork was just as good as the grilled beef and pork chops aforementioned. Our daughter had the shrimp salad, and the portion was large. We thought she wouldn't finish it, but to our surprise, she cleaned up the plate until there is nothing left. It was that good! We are glad that we finally discovered Pho5-10 and we will be back to explore more of the extensive menu.
