Pho Ga Nha - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Terrible customer service, first time in my life that I didn't leave a tip dining in. We were here on a Sunday at 6:30 pm with a party of 4 to celebrate my BIL's bday, this is his go-to place for some reason. My usual dish when I eat here is #15 with roti chicken and red rice, however, instead of red rice I always substitute it with crispy sticky rice. This dish with the crispy sticky rice is good here but it takes them 30 minutes to make so I had asked my BIL to order it for me since he got there first. Unfortunately, my BIL forgot to ask them for the sticky rice so they brought me red rice, we apologized for the mix-up and asked them to switch it out for us. 2-3 people came to confirm after that and while I waited 30-35 minutes for my food, my family was almost done with their food. Finally, a waiter came out and apologized that they ran out of sticky rice and if I could order something else. I said to him in Vietnamese, "you had me wait 35 minutes to tell me this now?" He said someone was supposed to come out and update me but guess he didn't. I was so upset I didn't even bother ordering something, and my poor BIL felt so bad. I know many Vietnamese establishments don't care much about customer service and my one star review isn't going to change how they manage their business, but truly, unacceptable customer service. How could you manage to mess up that badly if you had 2-3 people check on me? read more

Com ga roti 10/10 LOVED the com ga roti here!!! This is a MUST GET!! The skin was CRISPY, chicken was JUICY, and the sauce was IMMACULATE. I've had better rice but it was flavorful and delicious nonetheless. Pho ga Uc (chicken breast pho) 8.5/10 I wanted to try this because I was craving beef pho but I've also been trying to cut down on beef lol and this didnt disappoint! Comes with a side of ginger sauce for you to dip your chicken in and it was so good!! Would get this again if I was craving chicken pho read more

Pretty solid, but some items are a bit pricey. Have some different options for chicken, consistent across visits, but can be a little dry and the fried chicken itself was a bit expensive ($10 for 4 pieces) I like the chicken in the rice dish (crunchy and a little sweet) or the sticky rice (fried with Viet 5 spices seasoning) dish the most. The goi ga is always solid, if you order a congee or soup you can add on a smaller goi ga for cheap. The chicken in the dry mi dish can be a little dry, but it comes with a lot of noodles. I come back, but I prefer Nha Trang more (cheaper and moister chicken, as well as other dishes). read more

Knew I came to the right spot when I was the only non Viet in there. The Com Ga Roti has super crispy skin and an amazing mix of dark/light meat. I wanna come back to try the chicken pho next read more

Pho Ga Nha - Com Cơm Gà Rô Ti | Seasoned 1/2 chicken with red rice, sunny-side up egg** and house salad - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Came here with my family back in January and I remember it didn't leave much of an impression for me. Everything was just alright and okay.. The chicken pho was a bit bland and the dipping sauce was watery. The chicken rice dish, both regular and sticky rice, fried and Hainan style, were probably the better choice than the chicken pho... Coming from OC, I also am picky with my Vietnamese food, having to grow up eating it. Overall, just AOKAY.. Service was really good though and that is really says something about our Vietnamese restaurants! read more

The chicken here was like a MVP product but it's too chewy for us. Not impressed wt their soup and the overall experience , but the resto was packed and had a line. read more

Be aware of the place 'cause they charged you service charge of 18% without telling you!!! Weh you pay, you go to the front so you don't get your receipt afater you paid. Be careful when you pay. The food here is not bad but not much servie you can get. someone at my party spilled water on the table, we told the waiter and he just put another piece of paper on top of the wet table. This place is always crowded so except to wait at least 30 min. read more

Pho Ga Nha - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Looking for spots to eat in San Jose before going to a show and a friend recommended this spot. Ordered: no 1 (pho ga dac biet) 4/5: Cuz the soup was delish and the chicken came with giblets. Yum! where can i get giblets?! There wasn't a ton of noodles but there was plenty of chicken and giblets. it was well priced. no 15 (com ga ro to) 5/5: This dish was featured by the SF chronicle and I've never had anything like it. Yummy pieces of chicken lightly fried and tossed in a sweet sauce. For some reason it reminded me of fried squab for the crispiness and sweetness. But it was way better because there was more meat! It's served with an orange colored rice (I dunno why it's orange) that is also sweet. Maybe it's cooked in the sauce the chicken is tossed in? It also comes with a small salad so that you can balance the flavors. Would come back for this! no 33 (basically the beef pho combo) 3/5: This was the most disappointing because it was filet minion and other beef meats but it was overcooked. Really just stick with the chicken here and I'm a huge beef fan! Their service was lacking but I suppose they are popular enough that they don't need to cater to you. When we arrived they kept asking us if we were ready to order when we just sat down! I guess most people are regulars so they know what they want. The restaurant is pretty large but I can imagine it gets busy. There was a sign up sheet outside prolly for evenings and weekends. We popped in at 4:45 pm and there was no problem getting in. This place is so close to my favorite bahn mi sandwich shop that I now can hit two places on one trip! read more

Did this place get sold to new owners? The food seriously went down hill. Order a hainan chicken and an egg noodles with roti chicken today. Both were awful. The rice in the hainan chicken had zero flavor and was brown in color. The chicken itself was so chewy. Even the skin was chewy. The roti chicken was also so god damn chewy. Also had a side of chicken soup and it had no chicken flavor. My how the mighty have fallen.... This place used to be legit. read more

My family's go-to spot for com ga roti and com ga hainan since the quality at Pho Ga An Nam went down. Portions are generous and fair for the price when dined in, a little less so when taken out. It gets busy here, even one hour before closing! RECS: + Com ga roti ($17.50, 5/5 stars) is full of flavor with the sauce drenched over the chicken and red rice. Love the lightly vinegar'd veggies that come with it! + Com ga hainan ($16.25, 4.5/5 stars) has a flavorful rice, poached chicken, nuoc mam gung, and Vietnamese style kimchi. Simple but good! I prefer white meats when I get this read more

Pho Ga Nha - Com Ga Roti ($18.95, 5/5 stars) - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

It's been quite some time since I come back to this place, which used to be one of my preferred choice. Today I ordered a gỏi gà (half chicken salad) to go with 2 side orders of plain congee portion (cháo không). To my surprise, the 2 plain congee portions (9.95$ each) cost more than the 1/2 chicken salad (18.75$) and well pretty much above similar market level... The disproportionate pricing level between the 2 items seems very odd to me... Just trying to understand.... read more

Recommended by Vietnamese friend for good chicken or duck salad, since we were in the area decided to give it a try. The parking lot was small and parking spaces narrow. It was after 2 pm but still a line. The turn over was pretty fast so not too long a wait. The service was quick and friendly. The portion HUGE. Since just 2 of us we ordered the chicken noodles and duck salad combo and the dry noodles with fried chicken. The fried chicken was flavorful but the meat was a bit tough. Maybe I am used to the Costco Chicken so this might be free range chicken with leaner meat. The dry noodle was good and love all the leek and celery. The bamboo chicken noodles was tasty. Personally I didn't like the duck as it was a bit too gamey but my husband liked it. The iced cafe with condensed milk was very strong. I had to add more water and wait for the ice to melt and really enjoyed it few hours later. The restaurant was packed and busy and not too noisy as most Asian restaurants, the menu offers were limited but they do specialize in chicken. read more

First time reviewing, but my husband and I have been here a few times. Brought our daughter this time. The half chicken dish with yellow noodle is delicious as well as the half chicken with red rice. We like that the salad has a lot herbs and celery. We tried the chicken pho this time- also delicious. On the weekend- need to go early. Service is very efficient. read more

The broth is clear, rich, and naturally sweet, full of flavor without being greasy. The chicken is tender and fresh, and the portions are generous. Every bowl feels comforting and well-prepared, just like homemade pho. The restaurant has a clean, cozy, and welcoming atmosphere, making it a great place for a relaxed meal with family or friends. Service is friendly and efficient, which adds to the overall positive experience. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size, making it a great value. If you're looking for delicious, authentic chicken pho with great flavor and value, Pho Ga Nha is definitely worth a visit read more

Pho Ga Nha - #19 Mì Khô Gà Chiên đơn: 1/2 crispy chicken with dry egg noodle (wide or thin). $18 - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Had lunch with family since this is one of their favorite spots. Every time we come here, we always order the Com Ga Ro Ti. It's a classic and a must! It's iconic and very delicious. This time we went, we also ordered the Duck Salad with Cabbage, and the Com Ga Hai Nam. Hits: * Com Ga Ro Ti is a definite must. The orange rice paired with the egg and brown sauce go very well together. The meat is well seasoned and not over cooked. It comes with vegetables. It's not bland. * Com Ga Hai Nam is a good simple plain chicken dish. The chicken isn't seasoned as it's just boiled. It's paired with a fish and finger sauce on the side for dipping. I also really enjoyed the kimchi like cabbage given in the dish. It's not too sour and the right amount of spice. * Duck Salad is delicious. I love my vegetables and the cabbage is mixed with a sour vinegar sauce that makes the salad very refreshing. Final Verdict: Solid 5/5. The food is always delicious and well made every time we have came. Since this place is very popular, the wait can get long and extensive so make sure you don't come on an empty stomach or you'll be hangry. The parking lot is decently sized but it's very difficult to find parking so you will have to drive in circles or find a different area to park in. read more

Although the name of this restaurant advertises their pho, they're very well known for their com ga ro ti! This is a great restaurant for any chicken-lover; their menu is vast and specializes in a lot of different Vietnamese chicken dishes. We came in on a Sunday for an early dinner, and the restaurant was already packed! Fortunately, parking wasn't a big issue too! I ordered their com ga ro ti after being enticed by the text mentioning that it was featured on the SF Chronicle next to the menu. It comes with red tomato rice and the chicken itself. The chicken is sooo flavorful and well seasoned here! I loved the savoriness of the dish and how well the side salad + rice complimented it. Portions are HUGE here so keep that in mind if you're coming with other people! Overall, great value for the quality of the dish. I'd highly recommend getting their sugarcane juice too; it's a nice refresher and honestly is better than the other sugarcane spots in Vietnam Town. read more

Pho Ga Nha - Com Ga Ro Ti - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Although our receipt shows a party of 8, we are a party of 6, two of which at children and one child did not eat. We have a total of 4 bowls, we are charge a 15% service fee. I told the lady that one child didn't eat and she told me it doesn't matter. So does that mean that even if you come in, you still can be charge even though you don't eat? What bad business practice. Why charge a service fee, it's not like we have option to go get our own food, when it's ready. Bad business practice. Just be aware folks, be prepared to pay 15% service fee and the tax is on top of everything including the service fee. The food itself is blah, it ok, not great. We asked for two bowls so we could share which came out dirty and stuck with the food, when I informed the lady, she was not really happy. I think she brought into the kitchen and wiped it off because there was the same stain of food still stuck on the bowl. Ewh... They say that if you want to know the status of cleanliness in a restaurant check their bathroom, well I have to say their bathroom is really dirty and smelly. There is a water puddles in there, a risk for people who is not careful. Underneath where we sat to eat was a bunch of paper that was never picked up. I would say if the food and safety inspector came to inspect this restaurant, they were definitely fail. Needless to say, I won't be coming back here again. Bad service, dirty restaurant and food is just blah. read more

Got the pho ga and bun mam! It was my first time getting pho ga and I really enjoyed how clean and light the broth was compared to the usual beef pho. The bun mam was incredible tasty as well and did not have too much of a funk to it. However this gets 3 stars because the rest of my family got ga roti dishes which is what theyre known for and was disappointment with their chicken. In the past, it has been flavorful and a nice crisp to the skin, but this time around the skin was soggy and my aunt was unable to finish her chicken. The egg noodle was also very dry and lacking in flavor because there was barely any sauce in it. read more

I feel like y'all hate to hate. This place is burning azz FIRE. Prices you can't beat, but beyond that -- oh me oh my. Large portions, never dry chicken (and I mean never), and it warms the soul. My only spot for chicken soup. Anywhere. I swear. Yayuhhhhh. read more

This place is such a treat to enjoy a plate of com ga roti and their nuoc mia was surprisingly spectacular! Give me fourteen of them please and thank you. If you're chronically online then you'll understand LOL. Their portions are huge and can easily feed 2, in my case it fed me and myself which made my stomach quite happy. I also loved their side of soup which is well seasoned without making you feel like you need a nap from msg overload. I do wish their red rice had some more flavor, but overall still a great spot for viet food! read more

You do have to pay for containers to take home so keep that in mind! Highly recommend for chicken lovers! read more

Really quick service, which is surprising given how hearty and warm the dishes are. Pho Ga Na was featured in the SF Chronicle for its chalk chicken and rice dish, and for good reason. The chicken is crispy, flavorful, and moist. The chicken rice is equally flavorful and absolutely delicious. The crunchy contrast of the fresh veggies with the rice and warm chicken was a great combination. I'd recommend trying all the sauces. My favorite was the ginger (yellow colored in the picture) sauce, with the soy based sauce coming as a close second. The chicken isn't heavily seasoned, so the sauces really add a great different aspect to the flavor. The wait was quite long on a Sunday during lunch, so I'd recommend coming early to put your name down. Service was really friendly. The parking lot was a bit cramped so we ended up parking next door. read more

MENU AND FOOD: Pho Ga Nha cooks up a selection of noodle soups and rice plates. SERVICE AND ATMOSPHERE: Service is quick and efficient. Their indoor decor is plain and simple. They have indoor seating only. PARKING: Located in a small plaza, parking can be difficult and parking spots are tight. IMPRESSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: We've had their shredded chicken pho with fresh noodles, their famous seasoned half chicken with red rice, sunny side up egg and house salad, and their half crispy chicken with dry egg noodle, greens and a side of soup. Their half chicken with red rice was amazing and delicious as everything paired very well together. Their chicken pho was pretty good too, while their dry egg noodle dish was a bit subpar. We also had their lemonade soda, which came with the entire can of soda water. This is our new favorite place and we'll definitely be back! read more

Outstanding customer service. I was greeted immediately upon entering the restaurant. Plenty of parking, but can get packed.

If you love chicken, you should definetely check out this place. While it may look small, the space is big enough for 2 sections with the kitchen centered in the middle of it all. Spacing for seating is not tight but not spacious either but there's room for everyone. Service is quick and attentative. You don't get a check and you gotta remember the table number you are sitting on and pay up front. I have tried almost every popular dish they have and they are equally delicious and very filling. My go to is the Pho Ga Dac Biet. It has rice noodles and chicken of course but also gizzards, liver and the heart. They give you a lot of meat/organs too! Their dipping sauce is good too and pairs really well with this dish. The other dishes I get and would recommend are: Com Ga Hainan or Hainan Chicken Rice. Flavorful rice with their steamed chicken is just simple but very effective and good. Com Ga Roti or Fried Half Chicken with Red Rice (Tomato Rice) It is similar to the Hainan Chicken Rice, but taken up a notch with it being fried and the rice being tomato flavored. It also comes with a salty/savory soy sauce for the chicken too! Their sugarcane drink / Nuoc Mia is also really good. You can literally see them make it fresh. It pairs well with any of the chicken dishes you order. Do want to note that because it is sharing with other stores around the lot, the parking is absolutely horrendous. Gets even worse when cars are parked crooked and all too. Just be wary when coming here and drive a compact car if possible. read more

This place has the most authentic chicken rice noodle soup in town. The broth is savory, the free-range chicken is cooked just right, and the chicken salad is wonderfully fresh with its signature Vietnamese flavors. Their bún mắm (fermented fish noodle soup) and sticky rice with roasted chicken are also worth a try. Just know that you're coming for the delicious and authentic food, not the service. read more
