Finally found a new pho spot in the area that makes me stop driving down to the Vietnamese area. The broth is clean, flavorful and the quality of the meat really stands out. This is officially my go-to place . read more

We ate there few days ago & it was delish. Clean, great food & great service. Close to my house & loving it!

Lots of parking and the restaurant is very clean. The waiting staff might need some help but the team overall is doing a fantastic job for being a new business. Interior decor is a bit weird since it's all Roman aesthetics, I guess Julius Cesar loved Vietnamese noodles? The pho broth is a bit salty for my taste but overall it's very decent. I love that they give the options for fresh noodle, not many pho reustraunt have this option as this is only the real way to eat pho (other spots uses vermicelli noodles in their pho and it's not the authentic way to eat this meal). They do not cheap on the sides of veggies or meat, there is plenty. read more

Pho 85 - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Checked the new Pho spot in the South Bay. More and more spots keep popping up, so the competition in the area is getting tough. The pho here tasted great. I didn't feel heavy or bloated after. Everything was fresh. I wish they gave you more hoisin and sriracha sauce. The restaurant is small, so it may not be the best place for a large group. I will definitely be coming back soon. read more

Pho 85 - #5 - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

We had lunch here today forth first time. Pho 85 is located in the corner of Cottle and Beswick Dr. next door to China Delight. They took over the Mochinut spot that closed in January 2026. We walked in and went straight to their front counter. We were shown to a table and given menus. We hadn't been there for 3 minutes and we were asked for our order. My goodness lol , we just sat down and have never been here before. We told the young lady we needed more time. The inside looks exactly the same as Mochinut except for replacing the Mochinut sign, with a Pho 85 sign above the angel wings painting on the wall. They also painted over all the pained doughnuts except for one. They packed as many tables as they could in there, because the space is small, but it works. They did great filling that space. We were finally ready to order. The waitress came and we ordered the shrimp spring rolls for our appetizer without bean sprouts. My hubby ordered #36 the pork and grilled shrimp rice plate and I ordered the #31 the grilled pork, grilled shrimp and egg rolls with no bean sprouts in the salad. Our waitress had a look on her face like she was upset and didn't want to be there. When I reminded her, kindly, about no bean sprouts in any of our food, she just stared me down with a look of disgust. She also didn't write our order down. I had a feeling that things were going to go wrong because of that and I was right, unfortunately. Our shrimp spring rolls arrived first. They came out within 7 minutes. I noticed that there were no bean sprouts, yay! However, one of the shrimps in the roll had three dark black spots on it. And they were not small spots either. There was no way I was going to consume this and I was surprised that they served this to us like that. I got the attention of our waitress and her superior came by as well to look at it and apologized and said they would remake it. It took 10 minutes for the remade shrimp spring rolls to come out. And guess what? They filled it with bean sprouts. So here we go again. I had to tell their manager that I told our waitress that I can't have bean sprouts and that we can't eat this. She looked pretty pissed off but took it back to have it remade again. Finally after waiting 15 minutes. They brought out the new shrimp spring rolls and they were made right. They did, however, forget to put the crushed peanuts on our dipping sauce.....oh well. The shrimp spring rolls were just okay. They were very plain with just rice noodles and lettuce with shrimp halves. No cilantro, carrots or anything else. The peanut dipping sauce was good. We added some sriracha to it and that made it better. Our main dishes took over 30 minutes to arrive and both orderes were wrong. They gave my husband a pork and rice plate with no shrimp and with 2 egg rolls he didn't order. Then my order arrived and all I got was pork, 1 egg roll chopped up and plain lettuce with bean sprouts lol . I mean really? At this point the whole thing was just laughable. This is why it's critical to write a person's order down! We had to explain to them what the was wrong and that took awhile. Instead of leaving leaving my husband's plate and bring out some shrimp on the side for him, they took his whole plate away. What a waste. He could have at least started eating the pork and rice. I guess since he didn't order the egg rolls they didn't want him to eat them. They were already on the same plate. At least let him eat them since you messed up his order. I had to show them a picture of what I ordered and explain to them I only didn't want beans sprouts. I did want the pickled carrots, daikon radish and cucumbers on it. I wanted it just like the picture but with no bean sprouts. Finally our food came out correct but all the pork and shrimp were ice cold and overcooked to the point of having trouble chewing it. I have never experienced anything like this before. I have to say it was very frustrating and disappointing to say the least. There was one employee who apologized and was very sincere about it. She was very sweet and didn't charge us for the shrimp spring rolls, which was kind of her. I just can't justify coming back here. I think there needs some improvement with customer service. I also think they need a better system with taking down orders that will avoid repeated mistakes and wasted food because of those mistakes. And please don't serve cold food to your customers. Overall, a very bad lack of communication and understanding of what we ordered. Numerous mistakes with our food, because of not properly communicating to the kitchen. And the quality of the food was just not there. Dried up grilled pork and shrimp that is served cold is not acceptable. The white rice was also dried up and old. I hope they can learn from these mistakes and improve their business. read more

If you want the premium pho experience, you should come here. Unlike a typical Vietnamese pho joint, the tables are bare and the servers bring out all the accessories; chopsticks, spoon, napkins, hoisin and sriracha, and the herb / bean sprout spread. Water comes out in a chilled metal cup with crushed ice (the best). The broth is rich, flavorful, sweet and aromatic; so much that I have trouble finishing all the broth. I ordered the regular noodles. I don't know what's with the fresh noodles, I'm more of a traditionalist. The beef (I got tai and chin) was so tender; I think they use filet mignon which is crazy, but wow so enjoyable. Price is slightly higher than the normal pho places, but it is well worth it. If you just want a quick cheap bowl, don't come here, but if you want the best, this is the place. read more

This was my second time here. Perfect place for pho, so close to work. The first time,I had the special brisket pho and then second time short rib pho special. Both times the pho was on point. Service was slow the second time around due to the lunch hour rush. I hope they hire more staff to help wait on tables. It will get busy since Kaiser is down the street. Despite that, me and my friend enjoyed our meal. Would definitely recommend. read more

This restaurant just opened. I enjoyed their grand opening special pho and let me tell you that this broth was so rich and deep in flavor that it really stands in its own category. Very delicious! The bowl that I devoured had lean brisket and well done flank and it had plenty of juicy, fatty bits. The service was a little slow, but for the quality of pho that came out, it was worth the wait! read more

Pho 85 - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Sunday funday morning pho is always amazing. We decided on pho 85. Plenty of parking and we scored one by the entrance. Took a few mins to get noticed but we got seated and served iced water. Decent sized restaurant with lots of lighting, waking me up without the need of coffee. We ordered the $12 special pho advertised on their social media and we were not given option to choose type of meat though there are 2 options, noodle though there are 2 options, or to opt out of onions and green onions. The man taking our order wasn't the kindest and is a yeller (why so angry yo?) but when hunger strikes, you suck it up. We also got spring rolls and beef stew. Very good and flavor pho Broth and beef stew soup. Others ordering the same thing got offered 2 types of meat, choice of noodles, and, etc... Probably best to order with the female server moving forward. Next time we will try pho with fresh noodles and fatty oil or maybe even try a rice dish. 5 star for food and 3 star for service read more

it was good but the broth was too fatty for my taste. portioning was kinda small. I got the #1 combo bowl. As soon as I arrived the place wasn't business, so me & my partner asked if we could sit at a table w a booth. They denied us cause they said its for tables of 4. We said alright fine. We sit in the middle. 2 minutes later a lady walks in & they sat her where we wanted no hassle. She was also getting seated for 2. Is that not discrimination at it's finest? I'm hispanic. They were asian. Not cool. read more

Their broth is HEAVENLY!!! I live close by and my husband and I decided to eat here last night. It was SO good that we're coming back again tonight! Highly recommend! read more

I got the vermicelli with chicken and eggrolls. Portions are large and the food is tasty. But I was surprised that half of the chicken pieces were cold. Also, I asked for no ngo, but there was a big handful in the dish, which I had to fish out. Lastly, usually when I get this dish from other places there are peanuts, but none here, so I was disappointed. Not sure if I would return. read more

This place caught me and my friends by surprise. Went for lunch and tried their pho. Wow. Tasty and sweet broth. Fresh noodles must! Tried their Thai ice tea, and let me tell you, I usually know a place is good if their Thai tea is good! And yes, fresh brewed Thai tea was on par! I can't wait to order to go and let my family try. Keep the same recipe and I'll be back! Yummy to my tummy! read more

Best service in town and the best pho to go along with it. Absolutely amazing customer service. Blown away by how friendly the entire staff was and how they went out of their way to make sure we were all taken care of. Prices were waaaay lower than any other pho place we've been to and much better quality. Couldn't say enough about the entire experience and sooo happy to have them in our neighborhood. Can't wait to go back. read more
