Wow. What an absolute hidden gem for Hanoian cuisine. The chicken is outstanding. They use free range hen, and you can taste the difference immediately. Unlike the overly soft, almost mushy texture of supermarket chicken, this has the perfect bite. It's tender, yet still pleasantly firm with a natural chew that reminds you you're eating real, quality chicken. More importantly, it actually tastes like chicken. Rich, clean, and deeply flavorful. Then there's the broth. One sip and I was transported back to Hanoi. Crystal clear, incredibly clean, and bursting with flavor without relying on sweetness or excessive salt. It's delicate yet powerful, the kind of broth that only comes from patience and respect for the ingredients. I found myself savoring every spoonful. The xôi was a texture delight. The sticky rice had a wonderfully chewy, satisfying texture, and the crispy fried shallots on top added the perfect aroma and crunch. Every bite had that beautiful contrast between soft, sticky rice and fragrant caramelized shallots. It was simple comfort food executed flawlessly. What truly sealed the experience was the hospitality. I accidentally left my bag behind, and the owner immediately grabbed it and kept it safe for me. That simple act of kindness says everything about the people behind this restaurant. I haven't tried the bún chả yet, but after this meal it's already at the top of my list. I'll be back soon, and I'll update this review once I do. If you're searching for authentic Northern Vietnamese flavors instead of the more common southern-style Vietnamese restaurants, Pho Gà Hùng deserves your attention. Between the incredible free range chicken, one of the most memorable broths I've had outside of Hanoi, perfectly chewy xôi with fragrant fried shallots, a beautifully balanced fish sauce, and genuinely warm hospitality, this has officially become my go-to spot for Hanoian cuisine. read more

I was visiting the lion plaza food court as usual and I noticed that this restaurant had a hainanese chicken rice plate (viet style). I have tried a few other Vietnamese restaurants in the Milpitas area and they were quite good. Service was a little slow as I suspect some items needed to be reheated before serving. The rice was quite flavorful but lacking in the pandan taste which is a feature in the Singaporean version. The only negative was the lack of a chili sauce to spice up the meal. The chicken was ok but tasted a little dry. On the other hand the soup was tasty and not overly salty. I wasn't totally impressed and don't know if I will order it again. read more

Quite possibly the best bun rieu I've ever had hidden in the corner of the lions market plaza. We came right before they closed but they had our food out in minutes. Great assortment of toppings and I love that they give pork blood. Mu boyfriend offered the bun rieu ca which has fish and that was also very unique! It's nothing fancy and the store odd located on a food hall with shared seating but is nice for a warm meal. Owners were also super nice read more

Came here to try their bún riêu ốc and it hit the spot. The broth had a nice tangy tomato base with good depth, and the crab paste was flavorful without being too heavy. The snails were cooked well and not rubbery, which is always a plus. Portion size was generous with plenty of noodles and toppings, and it came out hot and fresh. Service was quick and efficient, even during a busy time. It's not the absolute best bún riêu I've ever had, but it's a reliable and satisfying bowl when the craving hits. Solid flavors, fair pricing, and I'd definitely come back again. read more

It's a difficult place to find in the shopping center to the left of the Lion's store. It's in a food court on the right side of the courtyard. We had to ask for directions to find it. Once we did, the owners were very kind and helpful. I got Chicken Bun, which is not on their menu, but they were happy to oblige, my daughter got the Pork Pho. The food was fresh and was filling. My daughter's Pho was delicious, she let me sample. My Bun was good, but I probably wouldn't get it again here. There are tables and chairs in the open space, the food vendors encircle the dining area. It's kept clean and bussed by a worker there. It's not fancy, but the service and food are good. read more

Our go to place for some bun rieu soup in lion plaza. Cash only and it comes out super quick. Portions are big for the large, so it could easily be split between two people. Very authentic tasting and has lots of crab meat it. Perfect soup for a cold day and reasonably priced for how much you are getting. With many options to choose from in lion plaza this is one that we always order from. I believe it's cash only and you order then they ring you when it's ready to pick it up from the counter. read more

The reviews for here raved about the Canh Bun Rau Muong ($15), so we decided to give it a try. It seems to be a variation of the Bun Rieu (crab noodle soup) except this one has a thicker noodle and rau muong (water spinach) cooked in the broth. The broth was super flavorful and tasted lighter than Bun Rieu's. The noodles were cooked well with the perfect amount of firmness and chewiness. There was also a good amount of fried tofu and crab balls in the dish. I would definitely come back here if I'm ever craving a solid bowl of noodle soup! read more

Pho Ga Hung is located inside Lion Plaza's food court. It's one of the few places that actually accepts card. I recently tried the bun rieu and the banh canh. Bun rieu is the tomato paste soup with crab roe and banh canh is like a Vietnanede seafood udon. Each bowl is loaded with lots of meats, veggies and noodles. On a cold day, it's nice to have a super piping hot bowl of noodle soup. The staff was very nice and answered any questions I had regarding the menu or ingredients. They even give you an estimate of when your order will be ready. Overall, they are fast, friendly and their noodle soups satisfies your craving for a hot bowl of noodle soup that isn't pho. read more

The broth was good and that was it. The bowl barely has any meats. The portion was little.

Really delicious, heart warming bowl of noodles. Ordered the #2 chicken large noodle with everything. Soup comes piping hot with chicken (with skin), chicken gizzard, chicken liver. Basil, bean sprouts, jalapeño slice, and hoisin sriracha, on the side. Owner asks if you'd like black pepper on it, say yes! It really brings out the flavours of the dish. Served with a tea. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I did feel there was some msg in the soup as was a bit thirsty for about an hour after. Will return! read more

Authentic Northern Vietnamese cuisine. All noodle soups are good. Good customer service. Accept Apple Pay too.

Ahh, this place is the absolute GOAT for chicken pho and canh bun! Located in the food court inside Lion Plaza (very inside, past a courtyard and all the businesses) is home to Pho Ga Hung! Even though their name is chicken pho, many people rave about the canh bun - a water spinach noodle soup (with crab) similar to bun rieu (thinner noodles & no water spinach). We've tried both and my boyfriend cannot stop eating the canh bun with the shrimp paste. The bun rieu is also really good! My favorite is the chicken pho, the broth is fresh and flavorful. It comes with a side dish of bean sprouts and a small cup of tea. I've been coming here since I was young and the flavors have been consistent for years. Pair this with the sugarcane drink from the stall over and you've got the best meal. read more

Kinda gives a home cooked meal vibe. This location is kind of difficult to find, but it's located deep inside the Asian plaza by Eastridge mall. Go with the bun rieu, can't go wrong with that. The lady and the man that took my order were also amiable to the max! read more

First came here 30 years ago, blown away with how good the pho was with the broth simmering endlessly. Forgive my ignorance but I always add the mini baguettes when they're available. We haven't been to Lion Plaza for years so I figured the pho was so good because I had nothing to compare it too. After years of having pho from east to West and Bay Area to the South, Pho Ga Hung is still the best in my opinion. read more

Been going to this place for more than 20 years plus for canh bun. It was the spot back in the days for the Vietnamese folks on weekends. Reminds me of the times where my brother would take my family here on the weekends to walk around , check out CDs (yes CDs ) and then rewards us with sugarcane juice and canh bun. Yay! Lol The lady owner is always super friendly welcoming every time I'm helped by her . The soup is always consistent and yummy. Same old classic taste. Price wise is not so bad. They raised the price but still good. One bowl of canh bun is $9.50. considering how costly things are anywhere else. Can't get tired of canh bun here. :) read more

A hidden gem in San Jose, Pho Ga Hung serves up the best bowl of pho. It is a favorite of my dad so we come here when we can. It can be easy to miss as it is tucked away inside the Lion Plaza, located in the food court towards the back. The best part is their broth is always hot when you receive the bowl, unlike other locations. They also offer fresh, large pho noodle (banh pho tuoi) which many other pho places don't offer. The pho itself is very affordable and they have a variety of options to choose from. The location is very casual as you order, pay, pick up, and eat in the food court. No need to clean up after yourself when you're done because the food court had someone to go around and clean up after (usually I leave a couple dollars tip for them as a courtesy). read more

Pho Ga Hung - Pho Dac Biet (House Special Pho) - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Located in the Lion Plaza food court, Pho Gà Hung (PGH) serves up a huge selection of Northern Vietnamese soups. As their name suggests, they specialize in Pho Gà (aka Viet Chicken Soup), but their other soups are just as commendable. I've been working in the area and dined here several times and, although I've barely scratched the surface of their menu, I feel like it's time to review. Canh Bún Rau Mung: Thanks to Randy F's fabulous review and pics, I was turned onto this Bún Riêu variation. This soup is served up with big chunks of Tofu, Crab Meatballs, round Rice Noodles (Bún) and Water Spinach (Rau Mung) in a light crab-tomato broth. The noodles were the standard Bún noodles you find everywhere and amply supplied; I was a big fan of the tender and perfectly cooked crab meatballs; I loved the leafy and earthy Rau Mung; the Tofu was, well, Tofu; and the broth was a bit too light for my taste until I mixed in the supplied Anchovy Paste and then--Bam! Whole new level, baby! The fishy, briney taste of the Anchovy really does perk everything up, and makes the whole dish sing in your mouth. 4.5* Pho Gà Dâc Biêt: Couldn't go to a place called PGH, and not try their Pho Gà (Chicken Soup), right? Apparently, their special combination (Dâc Biêt) comes with such "delicacies" as liver, heart, gizzard and intestines, as well as big chunks of white, or dark meat (your choice). The broth was excellent and tasted like Chicken Soup should, and I really liked that you could upgrade to the "fresh" noodles without an extra charge. The meat was fine, but next time I'm getting the non-special... 4* Bún bò Huê: BBH is my current favorite Viet soup, and PGH's version is not the best I've had, but it's up there. They serve it with a copious helping of the standard Bún noodles, and maybe one of the best selections of meat I've had to date in a BBH; they have the typical Cha Lua and congealed Pig's Blood, but they also throw in some deliciously, tender beef cuts (e.g., Brisket, Flank, tendon) that you don't often get in BBH. Their Broth is beefy, and super-spicy but lacks the nice subtle, lemongrassy nuances that a good BBH broth should have--but enter their amazing Anchovy Paste to save the day. Mix that blob of fishy goodness in, and watch the magic happen! You'll just have to trust me on this one... 4* Value- A loaded up bowl of PGH's soups will run you around $8, which is a pretty good value these days. I've heard that BBH An Nam has raised their prices to almost $11/bowl and they don't give you half as much meat as PGH. 4.5* Service & Ambiance- The Lion Plaza Food Court is not the most charming place to have lunch, but there's something slightly endearing about it. I'd only come during the week tho, when it's nice and chill--I've heard the weekends are a mad house. This is rustic dining at its best. The owners of PGH have got to be the nicest Viet restaurant owners I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. They always have a smile on their face, and seem happy to serve you--imagine that!! The head chef is a really nice guy, and I'd recommend ordering through him, as he actually speaks English (imagine that²!!!), and is happy to customize your order for you. Ambiance 3.5*/Service 5* I was originally going to give PGH a 4-star review, but the more I got to thinking about it, the more I felt like their excellent service really earned them the coveted 5th Star. I rarely give out 5-star reviews to Viet joints, and it's mostly due to a lack of conviviality in the staff. So, if you're in the Lion Plaza and looking for soup with a smile, than PGH is your spot! read more

Came by for lunch after seeing John D's photos of his Bun Bo Hue. Ordered mine with the friendly lady behind the counter and gave her $8 tax "included." The tray included a cup of hot tea, a bed of vegetables, and some dipping sauce. The Bun Bo Hue itself was mediocre. The soup wasn't really spicy and was probably too thick... The meat was over-cooked, dry, and didn't seem too fresh...bummer. At least the noodles and meatloaf tasted fresh? ...I'll stick with Quan Hue next door for BBH next time! read more

A special I like is the Ca Kho Do Chua = claypot catfish with pickled veggies, which is a nice mixture of sweet and salty and sour. My standard is their Canh Bun. Sometimes, I get the Bun Oc which is a version of my favorite item Bun Rieu. I'd also get Pho Ga and split whenever possible. Cannot go wrong here. Located inside the food court at Lions Plaza off Tully and King roads. Of all the eateries in the food court, I go to this spot most often. read more

*** Cash Only *** With Pho Gà in the name of this Lion Food Court spot, I was surprised to see a lot of mentions of Canh Bún Rau Muong in the reviews so gave it a whirl. Canh Bún Rau Muong ($7.50) is a noodle soup that is a cousin of Bún Riêu Cua (crab vermicelli noodle soup) with a similar reddish pork based broth and crab-based meatballs, but with thicker noodles like you find in Bún Bò Hue and a healthy dose of water spinach (the Rau Muong). The version here also has some pork chunks and fried tofu for toppings and they sprinkle some black pepper on before serving (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pho-ga-hung-san-jose?select=FffsLlwEQNw5Y5VB-6hQ1w#nx9nPqbJztjRaiuDWLs2hA). Some places add cubes of pork blood; not sure if that's an option here. Condiments include a lemon wedge, jalapeno slices and a dollop of shrimp paste (Mam Tôm) on top of some chili sauce (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pho-ga-hung-san-jose?select=FffsLlwEQNw5Y5VB-6hQ1w#na5fhTM2D4aEaIrvAXfGFQ). The broth is complexly flavored, but some shrimp paste and chili sauce never can hurt. Didn't notice any tomato like you often find in Bún Riêu so guessing annatto oil provided the red hues. The two meatballs were pretty light and had a, dare I say, fluffy texture. The thick noodles (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pho-ga-hung-san-jose?select=FffsLlwEQNw5Y5VB-6hQ1w#0KptC2JmFklcCF3mP39WKw) were al dente and had a nice chew. if you like Bún Riêu, you should give this soup a try. Dinner time is much easier to get a table than lunch in the food court, but plan accordingly. Despite the Food Court hours being listed as 9pm closing, most stalls (including this one) are shutting down around 7 or earlier. read more

This place was so hard to find, it's really tucked between the shops off to the side of the supermarket plaza and through some doors where you find the food court. I had my hopes up for the pho ga based on all the great reviews, but I didn't love it. Not salty enough and the chicken was just ok, not a ton of it either. Turtle Tower in SF and Pho Element in San Mateo are preferable for me. read more

Pho Ga Hung has the best pho ga I've ever had, hands down. I've always dreaded getting pho ga at other places because they use dry chicken, and the booth is just plain. None of that applies here. They have the best booth I've ever had, it's very flavorful. You can tell they use a lot of herbs and spices. The chicken here is never dry, it's always fresh and tender. It always comes out hot, I can literally eat this everyday. They're a family own business, very nice and polite. The prices here are unbeatable. Nowadays, a bowl of pho probably cost you 10 bucks, and it's no where as good as here. They have a huge menu of all types of food, take a look and read it. They can add or adjust anything you need too. Definitely one of the best, if not the best pho place in SJ.. read more

This place was in the food court of the Lion Plaza. I ordered a pho tai which was $6.00 total (tax included). There was an additional 25 cents if you want to take out. Most of the pho prices were around $6.00. I think there's only one size and I took a picture of the menu with my cellphone but it was a little blurry. Also, I didn't take pictures of all of their menus. Good enough. The food came out pretty quick and I sat down to eat. It came with a cup of tea, a tiny cup of hoisin sauce mixed with hot sauce, and bean sprouts/lemon. The meat was okay but the broth tasted pretty bland to me. I could barely taste a very tiny hint of some kind of flavor. I think their main "pho specialty" would be the pho ga (chicken), because it's in their name... read more

I ordered Com Ga HaiNam which is Hainanese chicken rice dish $10. The only part I wasn't used to was the pickled veggies they added to the side of the rice dish. I still ate everything as I was hungry but the cabbage was overpickley and not complementing the ginger chicken. I'm giving them 4 stars because the food flavor was good with the ginger sauce, a little saltier than my moms but I'm ordering the dish because I can't ask my mom to cook every craving I get. The rice has some color and flavoring and compared to other restaurants for this dish. Personally a little drier than I'd like but I have yet to find a restaurant who serves the rice as silky as home. I also would applaud them for accommodating my boneless request and this was the first time I was able to choose white or dark meat, but only one not a mix. This restaurant is in the middle of Call Me Dragon food court inside Lion Plaza off Tully & King. They serve a variety of vietnamese noodle & rice dishes. If this is your first time eating this dish, you should dip the chicken and eat it with the rice, and if you like ginger I would sauce your rice a bit with the minced ginger. And soup is on the side to drink or add to rice whichever your preference. read more

This is my favorite go-to spot (located in the Lion Plaza food court) when I am craving Bun Rieu in SJ. The way I order my Bun Rieu is by turning it into Bun Rieu Oc.

Chicken pho seems to be their specialty here. I ordered a regular pho ga with thin pho. Service was friendly and the pho was ready in 5 minutes.

Another great find in the Lion Plaza food court. Although their name pushed me towards ordering pho ga, a quick Yelp review made me change my order to Canh Bun Rau Muong, Thanks to Ken K. for his thorough description. The soup noodles use round rice noodles and consists of a tomatoey seafood broth with crab meat balls and water spinach. I've had bun rieu before and I much prefer this soup dish. The soup flavor is much better and the addition of the provided shrimp paste puts it out of this world. I can already see myself coming back for this again. Although I hear good things about their pho ga, I'm quite happy with Pho Kim Long and Pho Hanoi with their version. Pho Ga Hung is cash only. Update#1 - I'm a big fan and after trying all the food stalls here I think this is my favorite. I love the Canh Bun Rau Muong. I think about during lunch and will drive over 30 minutes to have it. That makes this place 5 stars. read more

*********************** 676 ************************** Inconveniently located inside the Lion Plaza Food Court! Hard to find a table to eat! Sometimes you have to fight over it to a lot people that barely speak any English and no manner!!! (No offend to my people!) However PHO GA HUNG offer better PHO GA chicken noodle soup than most PHO places around San Jose. Don't let the name fools you, PHO GA HUNG offers a whole lot more than PHO. A few dishes that is so BAC KY (Northern Vietnamese dishes) that I love, just like how my grandma and mom would cook it: - CANH BUN - similar to BUN RIEU, a Northern Vietnamese thicker rice noodle soup, with tomato based, tofu, crab meat and congealed pig's blood. The crab meat smashed into paste, then combine with eggs, it becomes fluffy, it melts in your mouth when you eat it. Serves with steamed RAU MUONG - Vietnamese water spinach, so good here! - BUN MOC - Bun moc is a rice stick noodle soup made from a pork bone, pork base, dried shiitake mushroom broth. The meats are mainly Vietnamese ham/pork sausage - CHA (similar to spam), the steamed one wrapped in banana leaves & broiled, the fried ham, and the cinnamon ham. And also the main raw pork sausage mixed with dried shiitake mushroom, serves as balls in the broth. Very rarely any restaurants around San Jose serves this dish. PHO GA HUNG offers this very good as well! Cheap eat, good authentic Northern Hanoi food, I love it here! Although don't care for the hassle coming to this plaza!!! P.S. Don't even think to come here on a weekend, bad drivers all over the plaza, super crowded, long line! read more

My family always comes here for their bun vit xiao man! So yummy! It's located inside the food court of Lion Plaza. The area itself is pretty dirty and it smells, but the food is good. There are no windows, just two giant glass doors in the front. Inside the food court, there are several different types of food. Bun vit xiao man -- The broth is made with chicken broth, so it taste just like chicken noodle soup, but less salty. The broth is very clear and the soup itself comes with a plate of veggies - cabbages, jalapeños, limes, bean sprouts, and fish sauce. The fish sauce has a slight garlic taste to it, which makes it a very good dipping sauce! The noodle soup has several duck pieces, but be careful of the skin because sometimes, it has a lot of hair... Gross. They didn't pluck the duck fully, but that rarely happens anyways! Just a heads up. Also, it contains bamboo shoots, which adds a lot of texture in the soup! I'll definitely come back! (: read more
