    Thai tea einspanner
    Fancypants X.

    2.5 stars. My favorite pho joints are closed on Tuesdays. We ventured to try a new-to-us eatery but unfortunately it didn't scratch the itch for good soup & noodles. Pho Day has aesthetic cafe drinks as well as traditional Vietnamese dishes on the menu. The Thai Tea Einspanner had a thick top layer of sweet cream, but was not sweet or flavorful enough. My food was equally disappointing. The Imperial Rolls had a crisp, bubbly wrapping, but it was an unpleasant surprise to find a mushy filling hiding inside. I didn't particularly like the flavoring of their broth in the Chicken Pho; noodles were thicker than I'm used to; & most offensive were the chopped up pieces of chicken skin & fat that I had to fish out. No plans on returning, but those giving Pho Day a try have quick service & a sweet waiter to look forward to.

    Came for a lunch today and was greeted by a kind server. I enjoyed the decoy around the restaurant and was overall a very clean restaurant. My son and I got pork chop with garlic noodles and a beef combo pho. The suggestion was made by the server and we left happy and full. Neat spot!

    Pho Day | San Francisco 1. Five spice chicken garlic noodles 2. Combo beef noodle soup 3. Imperial rolls Pho Day is a Vietnamese noodle shop located in Bernal Heights, San Francisco, offering a solid variety of comfort food. You'll find everything from pho noodle soups and garlic noodles to vermicelli bowls, rice plates, and banh mi sandwiches. My friend and I ordered the five spice chicken garlic noodles, combo beef noodle soup, and imperial rolls. The food came out relatively quickly--and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. I'll definitely be coming back to try their Bún Bò Huế, a spicy beef noodle soup that's next on my list!

    Grilled beef with garlic noodles

    This spot is in the neighborhood so it's convenient, but it isn't my favorite. I do like their garlic noodle and protein dishes more than their pho. They are Chinese owned so it's not as authentic. The pho broth is decent but the noodles always have that undercooked starchy taste. I'm bummed that they only have sriracha as their hot sauce as I usually prefer chili oil or sambal. They also don't have sauce ramekins. They close very early and pretty much kick you out half an hour before the listed closing time. I find the food to be somewhat inconsistent as well.

    I came here from san jose with my partner and we decided to grab some lunch. I wanted banh mi and coffee so i surfed yelp looking for a good spot and i found this place. just for the coffee and the grilled beef bahn mi...i have to say, the banh mi has got to be the best i've ever tried. I am obsessed with the vietnamese coffee too, strong and perfectly sweet.

    Melted lid. This is just our recent order, but this happens literally every time!

    For some reason, it's been a year since we had Pho Day. Came to my surprise that the price has significantly increased while the proportions shrunk. I understand times are rough but double negatives? That leaves a sour taste to our meal. Ordered bun Bo hue ($16 in 2024), $20.40 in 2025 through DD. Food still tastes good but my god, I hope this message reaches the owner but please!!! Please!! PLEASE change your soup containers that can actually sustain your boiling soup. I don't know how many times I had complained about the order arriving melted through and my food arrived in a soupy mess. Not to mention I ingest some form of melted plastic with the food. I can't be the only one who receives melted containers. It's time for a change, you're basically making almost $10 more out of me for every meal since 2024, you can afford to find better to go soup containers.

    Shrimp Pho and wontons
    Brittany P.

    Delicious!! I've been here several times, and it never disappoints. The broth in the pho is very flavorful. The shrimp was cooked to perfection, and the wontons were really good. The staff members were very friendly and attentive. One of my favorite places in the city for Pho

    Adel W.

    Nice place, but not my favorite Pho in the city. Service was sweet! I think the broth just lacked flavor, but the raw beef was very very tender! The place felt a little bit not cozy and cold.

    Perhaps because my brain is a melting popsicle of pop trivia, when I see the name of this place, I keep envisioning a computer-slenderized Paula Abdul singing "The Promise of a Pho Day". Noodles calling and they're calling my name Broth is boiling, inducing farts of change Why do I feel this way? The promise of a pho day The promise, the promise of a pho day... I think the staff should sing this 1991 ditty when I make my order of the $14.50 Chicken Noodle Soup. Yes, that's what they call their pho ga, and that's fine because it brings back memories of Campbell's in a can. However, the pho ga here is high quality with poultry pieces with the skin still attached (photo: https://yelp.to/VOfM9Xx47R). Hey, that's my preference anyway. I can't help it. I'm a creature of habit. They serve all the food you'd expect from a Vietnamese family restaurant - banh mi, rice plates, noodle bowls, French fries...French fries? - but hey, I'm stuck on the chicken noodle soup because I like it. To me, that fulfills the promise of a pho day. See the wisdom from mistakes in our past Hear the younger generation ask "Why do I feel this way?" The promise of a pho day FOOD - 4 stars...fulfilling pho ga no matter what they call it AMBIANCE - 4 stars...always room for me here SERVICE - 4 stars...quietly compelling TOTAL - 4 stars...it's the promise of a pho day RELATED - Exploring the Outer Mission?

    Found a another good Vietnamese spot near my office. I must have passed by this place a hundred times and never thought to trying it. My mistake. I had the 5-spice chicken with garlic noodles. It is one of my Go To orders, if the restaurant offers it. Fortunately, it was a good choice. The chicken was tender and flavorful. The noodles nice & garlicky. The egg on the noodles was a wonderful bonus. I also ordered the fried egg rolls, which were so good, I thought about ordering another for the road. But, that would have made me feel shameful. My coworker ordered the Spicy Satay Rare Beef Noodle Soup. She said it was very good and it smelled incredible. She also ordered a Bahn Mi for the road. All in all, this is a good choice for the are and I will definitely be going back.

    Oat Matcha latte. they used ceremonial matcha, very foamy and smooth, will come back for this

    Stopped by for a bowl of pho as I always do, and found out they have a new drink menu, cream top matcha and coffee! I tried the matcha latte with oat milk, surprisingly good, super foamy and the matcha tastes strong and smooth in a vibrant green color. Their matcha is sweetened by default, but you can ask for no sweet added. Which I did. Matcha & pho sounds strange but it works! Will come back to try more!

    Ask the Community - Pho Day

    Do they use fresh pho noodles like Pho Huong Viet or Pho Hanoi in SJ?

    No this is not an authentic viet place

    I've never been, should I go? Or is there a better pho place nearby?

    You should definitely try this place out. It really is the best Pho I have had in a long time. I tried the 5 spice chicken which was absolutely delicious. I feel like the broth can make or break it and theirs was so delicious - seemed really fresh.
