Authentic Vietnamese food here! Yummy banh beo dish. Savory pho broth. Service was great and quick. Clean and inviting dining area

My son never had Pho before, so I brought him here per yelp reviews. Got inside and it was very clean. Just a few people at tables. A man greeted us and seated us right away, he took our drink order and gave us menus. We both got the round steak Pho. It was so good! Broth was delicious, the Thai basil was beautifully fragrant and the bean sprouts were so crisp. It was moderately priced. Definitely will go back and try another.

Service could use a lot of help here - pressuring me to buy pho instead of answering my questions about their menu is not what I need. No smile and nor asking how our food is nor caring to properly clean the table and floors add to the dissatisfaction. Lastly the several dishes and soups like Bun Bo Hue, Bun Cha Ca and rice dishes were not worth a return trip. I went the first time and somehow forgetting I went there already ended up there a second time only to relive the horrible experience!

This is my go-to pho restaurant! I recommend trying the Bun Bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup), Pho, or Com thit nuong (rice plate). I always get confused between com sườn nướng and cơm thịt nướng but I definitely recommend getting the thit nuong for sure! The suon nuong can be dry and not the best... Like other small Viet restaurant you have to wave the waiters down, ask for what you want, and pay at the cash register. They play Vietnamese music which is kind of a vibe for me and there's lots of Vietnamese folks that eats here! I recommend trying it out.

One of the best bun Bo hue in town. I've been coming here for many years. The food is good but the service is like any typical pho places, very fast pace and do not check on you. You'll have to flag someone down if you need anything. I haven't dine in since the pandemic and was super excited to dine in. It's a super busy complex so it's hard to find parking. Interesting that they sell sticky rice on the side. We bought one to take home and my two year old niece loves it.

18. Bun Bo Hue Came here on a Monday around noon time and it wasn't very busy. We had empty tables around us. We all ordered the Bun Bo Hue. The portion was just right for me. Normally I have a hard time finishing my bowl. Only complaint is the porks feet were tough to bite through. Other meats were ok. Wished there was Viet ham in it. The Broth tastes good. I like to eat my bbh with pho noodles. Service was fast. Staff doesn't wear mask. I felt a bit anxious when our waiter took our order and stuff.

First visit here since the weather been much cooler and first thing in the morning when you want to sip on something warm calls for BUN BO HUE! With a large dining area tables are set up and photos of menu items on the wall they open at 8am (check updates) dine in or take out. I ordered the Bun bo hue which had a nice spicy broth and thick noodles to slurp with topped with fresh herbs and thin slices of beef. I ordered a Large to go and still it was a huge portion nicely packed. They also have on the menu rice plates and pho. Very Tasty!

My wife was craving pho for breakfast, but it was almost lunch time by the time we got here. I had seafood noodle soup and my wife had Bun Bo Hue. The food was delicious, but service was not. There was a waitress on her phone all the time. Had to go up front just to ask for more water and a fork for my wife. At the time I was about to pay for the food, the lady told me the debit machine wasn't working. Had to travel to my bank to get the cash to pay for the food. Signs need to be posted if cash is only accepted

Stopped by since Lollibowl was closed. I haven't been here in probably over a decade! It was very nostalgic walking in, because everything looked exactly like it did years ago. It wasn't as busy on a Sunday afternoon surprisingly. This place has always been known for their BBH. If you like spice, you gotta get that. You can always eat a Vietnamese bowl of soup on a hot day. I appreciated the fresh greens and herbs that came with it; none of the leaves were wilted or old. The eggrolls (4) were kind of skimpy, like a kids meal with only two leaf lettuce. The pho dac biet was a bit disappointing compared to the BBH because it very bland. The flavor in the broth only sat on top. As you take more bites, the flavor went away. So just stick with the BBH!

Have a craving for Bun Bo hue .. my date likes this place .. but it's it ok fir me.. it's a different kinda of style of bun Bo hue.. Not sure what region in Vietnam .. I only like it with their toasted shrimp pasted mix .. without it then it'll be too plain. But I know lots of people like this style.. so give it a try when you're in the area. I have tried different things from this place.. it's Juz alright.

Diane S.

It was ok. We used to go here all the time when they first opened 20+ years ago. BBH was decent, pho was not hitting the spot my other half said. Thought we'd come back and try it out with all the raving reviews of their BBH, ughh need to find a new spot with good BBH.

Vegetarian Pho
Ayoka B.

This is not a vegetarian friendly place. The broth was disgusting. The noodles were hard. How is rice noodles hard after you've let them sit? The vegetables look poorly. Even after I tried to doctor the broth up it was nasty. I could make better Pho at Home and I can't make Pho. I paid 16.70 for a Vegetarian Pho which on the menu said 13.95. The place I normally go to Pho City was close to I decided to give this place a whirl and I would rather starve.

Salty over priced pho. They pushed a bone up charge, but it was chewy and what they had used for the cooking the broth- not worth it.

It's a pretty popular restaurant so joining the waitlist on Yelp helps to get in the queue. When we got there, we were already on the Yelp waitlist so our wait wasn't really long. For this visit, we had the following: Dishes - Ribeye steak and Vietnamese shaking beef, Crispy Fish Sauce chicken wings both served with red rice. Drinks - Kumquat lemongrass tea and coconut coffee Their food is really good, reasonably priced. Staff were attentive and friendly, definitely provided great service. Atmosphere was lively but not loud. Simply decorated. There's a small space for waiting customers.

We got the banh khot, green thai tea, com do beef steak and com do ga quay. The banh khot came piping hot and crispy. It was good and I would come back just for that. The green thai tea was also really good and had a hint of pandan. The two other entrees were about the same, but just different protein. For the ribeye, we were asked how we wanted it and said "medium rare", but it came out to well done. It was chewy and didn't have much flavor besides the topping that's on top. The chicken was crispy, but the meat lacked flavor and was quite dry. Both protein was not enjoyable to eat unfortunately. The portions are nice though and one entree can definitely be shared between two people. Overall experience, it was just okay. The food really did the most damage.

It's pristinely clean on the inside and servers checked in on us frequently. The wagyu tastes about what you'd expect from an AYCE format: acceptable and enjoyable. The A5 brisket outshines the beef slices, which is expected based on appearance alone given the brisket's marbled and fatty appearance. However, the less-tender beef slices come in handy if the goal is quantity over quality; the brisket is only served in several thin slices at a time. I tried the New Zealand lamb for variety's sake which also tasted great. Bonus points for serving onion pancakes as a side dish! It's a childhood delicacy for me, and I don't see this offered at most AYCE hot pot establishments. The soup bases could use some work. Not bad by any means, but both the pork bone and fire spicy soups would benefit from a stronger flavor profile. The fire spicy soup seemed particularly diluted which decreased the overall savoriness of the buffet ingredients. Pros: AYCE wagyu at an affordable price, typical range of buffet ingredients, very clean, attentive servers. Cons: smaller pot sizes, broth flavor could be stronger. Yes to returning.

I've attempted to come here several times, but the timing just hasn't been on my side. A few weeks ago, we stopped by only to find them closed, with no updated business hours posted. Last week, I came across a recent Yelp review mentioning a lunch menu, and the owner had even responded to that review! So naturally, I assumed they were open earlier in the day. A few days ago, my boyfriend finally got tired of hearing me talk about how badly I was craving THEIR pho and ONLY their pho! No substitutions, no negotiations! So we decided to give it another try. We arrived around 4:30 PM, only to discover their hours had changed to 5:30 PM-12 AM. (The sign in my photo actually says 5:30 PM-12 PM, but I'm assuming they meant 12 AM.) An entire hour too early! I was SO bummed! Since we were already hungry, we ended up going next door for Mongolian BBQ. Mind you, I'm not even a big fan, but hunger won that battle. The entire time, I felt like I was CHEATING on my favorite pho spot! And to make matters worse, as we were leaving around 5:15 PM, we actually walked right past the owners with their dogs! OMG, talk about feeling guilty and almost ashamed! Like I had just been caught cheating! I've since noticed that they've recently updated their business hours on Yelp, which is definitely helpful! Hopefully, this will save me from another unsuccessful pho mission. I'm determined to get my pho fix soon! Weekends might be my best bet since their later opening hours make it a little challenging for us to visit during the week. Until then, the craving continues! And trust me, NO other pho will do!

I see the appeal even though I grew up with my mom's cooking and frequent visits to my local Chinatown. Impressively fast service for how busy they were. They immediately sat my friend and I, serving our beef noodle soup in mere minutes and our Xiao Long Bao approximately 10 minutes after. The Xiao Long Bao is acceptable in terms of the filling. However, it's on the drier side which can be partially alleviated by dipping them in soy sauce. I'm seeing that previous reviews share the same sentiment about the dryness. The beef noodle soup left me unimpressed -- substituting the usual beef broth with a tomato soup simply does not work. I'm trying my best not to critique this restaurant from an authenticity standpoint since they don't claim to serve anything true to native roots, but this broth swap made me chuckle. I'm assuming it was a price-saving measure. The beef itself tasted decent, especially with the addition of chili oil. The noodles tasted satisfactory as well, but I would have appreciated a higher proportion of beef relative to noodles. Despite their name, I'd wager a guess that their Chinese-American menu options fare better than the dumplings. Their broccoli beef, kung pao, and orange chicken all looked appetizing when I glanced at other customers' plates. If I do come back, I'll keep my eyes on those.

They have gotten good reviews, so I decided to try the. Chinese donut rice paper rolls. I love the savory Chinese donuts. The donuts were wonderfully savory and crispy, and the silky rice paper played against the donuts, absolutely perfectly. I'm not sure what the sauce was that was on top of it, but I loved it. It was a perfect match to the rolls. I was only gonna have one and take one home, but they were so good, I ended up polishing off both of them. For my congee, I decided to try the grass carp congee. Carp are bottom feeders so they can definitely have a muddy flavor. However, grass carp, as their name implies, swim among the grasses. It is a firm, mild tasting fish. The congee was perfect, not too thick, not too thin, and I could definitely taste the ginger and the scallions. They played along perfectly with the mild flavor of the carp. Because I had polished off both of those rice paper rolls, I made it through about half of the congee, the rest coming home with me.

That it is customary in Sacramento. Ok then, what about to those that are elders or disabled who can't bring the plates? I was lucky I had few of my fam to help but there's no warmth to this owner. No one even checked on us at all! We would have left but we had to pay upfront before we found out we had to be the waitress. Food wasn't even worth it (papaya was bland, pad Thai was average). Update: owner replied to this post. Everything that she stated wasn't true at all. I asked why we have to bring all the stuff in and she insisted that it's customary in Sacramento-- she did NOT asked us at all or did we asked, the owner said it immediately when we got seated that we HAD to bring it in. Yes I was upset AFTER we were told to bring the plates and everything in; we just came back from a vacation so we were in a good mood). Please don't make it seem that you were innocent as you also keep mentioning that is how things are in Sacramento and asked where I was even from. Also, we would've been more understanding if we didn't give us an attitude from the start and told us to get our own plate and bring it back in. A word of advice: please hire more staff since that would give some politeness to ALL customers. If you were so busy, how would you even have the time to explain why you wanted us to do waitress work. Please, you straight up and said we have to pick up our our plate of foods WITHOUT any of the understaff part. Again, owner keep trying to make a costumer experience in the wrong since honest review will hurt her business. Never in my Yelp reviews owner is so against a bad review --this just verifies how the owner is very defensive and keeps justifying without taking accountability of what actually happened (like how we even know she was working alone since we're outside). Also, please don't make any assumptions, they're not my husband or daughter (we never mentioned this and how inaccurate the owner perspective is). Further customers, please be aware when you leave bad reviews, expect the owner to persist that you're in the wrong (like she did with other previous bad reviews).

Pipo Ramen and Rice…read more I've been wanting to try Pipo Ramen and Rice since 2023, when it was ranked #11 on Yelp's list of places to eat in the Sacramento area. I've driven past this spot countless times but somehow never made it in, until now! I stopped by on a Saturday before noon, and the restaurant was pretty quiet, with only a few tables occupied. The interior is modern, clean, and well kept, making it a nice spot for a casual meal. After looking over the menu, we decided on the Pad Thai with Shrimp (medium heat) and Panang Curry with Chicken (medium heat). While ordering, our server also recommended the Pipo Salad, essentially their take on papaya salad. They offer it Lao or Thai style, and we went with the Thai style with mild heat. Once the food came out, the first thing I noticed was the portion sizes, everything was much bigger than I expected, especially considering the reasonable prices. These are definitely portions that are easy to share family-style. The Pipo Salad had tons of flavor, and I really enjoyed being able to taste the vinegar and fish sauce. One thing to note, though: I ordered it mild, but this ended up being the spiciest dish on the table! I'd say the heat was closer to a medium, while the Pad Thai and curry were much milder. The Pad Thai was solid. The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the flavor was there. The Panang Curry was good, although I personally wished both the Pad Thai and curry had a little more heat. Luckily, our server brought out some condiments, including Thai pepper fish sauce, which was excellent with the curry and gave it the extra kick I was looking for. Overall, I'd definitely recommend giving Pipo Ramen and Rice a try. The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and there's a good variety of dishes I'm looking forward to exploring on my next visit. My only real complaint is that the spice levels seem a little inconsistent. I wanted my Pad Thai and curry to be spicier, but at the same time, I didn't want my mouth completely on fire. Hopefully I can find that perfect balance next time! Would I come back? Absolutely. I've still got plenty of the menu to work my way through!
