Hands down this is the best Pho spot I've ever had. The spring rolls are so good and tasty. The pho is fresh and filling. The Thai tea is also so good! It's rare to find a pho spot where the appetizers, Thai tea, and soup are all good. But this place is a winner. And it's down the street from my home. A win for me!! Customer service is great as well! I'll be here more often!

Chicken pho Pho Ga
Natalia R.

This is my absolute favorite pho spot in east bay. I typically get the pho ga and they bring it out quickly and it always tastes amazing! It's also a nice relaxing atmosphere inside, never overstimulating or chaotic which I really appreciate. So happy I found this Pleasanton gem.

Love this new pho place near me. My favorite is their chicken pho with added veggies. The broth is clean and light and I like the thin sliced chicken breast. The added broccoli, carrots and cabbage makes this bowl extra healthy and delicious. I'll definitely be back!

The broth was okay but the egg rolls were amazing! The service was top tier! The restaurant is big and spacious and clean. I had a great experience, i just wish the broth had a little more flavor.

Grilled Chicken with Vermicelli
Faith C.

Felt the dishes were a bit on the pricier side, but everything was really good. Our party tried a variety of dishes--beef pho, chicken noodle, chicken vermicelli, chicken banh mi, and a bbq beef over rice plate. We were the only people inside around 10:30AM on a Sunday morning and the food came out promptly after ordering. Each dish was flavorful and delicious. We all finished our plates/bowls. My highlights: the banh mi bread was amazingly soft (I always anticipate a scratched up roof of my mouth whenever I take a bite of a banh mi baguette, but this bread's exterior was pleasantly soft and still crisp) and the chicken and pho broths were both extremely flavorful. Service was fast and friendly, interior is spacious and clean, and food was great. I did think the portion sizes were on the smaller side and prices are slightly higher than average. Overall, we had a great meal and will likely be back soon.

I was stuck on the 680 traffic and found this place on my detour to 580. Glad I found this spot as I was hungry. Maple parking right in front of the store. Plenty of seats and I was promptly greeted by host and front cashier. Bathroom was clean so I was looking forward to clean hearty food to eat. Grabbed the perfectly crispy eggrolls and dipping sauce. Was not oily at all so 5 * for that. Settled on fresh lemon water and the special pho bowl with a huge bone in. Food was well balanced and they didn't skim on the meat! Vegetables were fresh and full of flavor. Food turned out so well I decided to order the grilled pork spring rolls and some other dishes and more. Pho to go. Food came out fast after I was done with my eat in meal. Everything was wrapped and packaged right. Nowadays that's hard to find with everything being so expensive to run a small business that I find stores skim out on quality of meats or portions . Definitely coming back to this hidden gem

Pho #1 with beef rib (regular size)
A L.

Always welcoming, friendly and efficient service. Clean restaurant & restrooms. The egg rolls were good & full of minced filling. Pho was the star and delicious. Good meat to noodles ratio. The broth stands out from any other pho restaurants in the area. The broth was clean and had depth of flavor. And the beef flavor really came through. This was a noticeable difference & great improvement from the prior visits. The broth in prior visits was already pretty good but this enhancement clearly establishes a bar for the other pho restaurants. It's obvious that the sweet chef/owner cares about the food she's cooking & sharing with her patrons. She comes out to check on everyone.

Pho Dac Biet
Alisha V.

Absolutely delicious! Ordered a large Pho Dac Biet and shared with my 2 year old who devoured her entire bowl. The pho here is packed with rich flavor, fresh ingredients, and the broth tastes like it's been simmered with care. The portions are generous The service is just as wonderful--friendly, fast, and welcoming. The restaurant itself is clean, cozy, and makes you feel right at home. Hands down one of the best pho spots I've ever been to in the Tri Valley!

Bbq pork chop with egg roll rice plate
Kim S.

The food was soooo good! Everything came out hot and fresh. The pho broth was so hot and flavorful and the rice plate was perfect. The Service was fast and the restaurant is large and relaxing. Highly recommend!

Grilled Pork Slice, Shredded Pork Skin, Egg Cake over Rice
Maryanne W.

Saturday lunch and friends suggested Pho Queen. We have passed by this restaurant many time when driving through the street so this is our first time trying. I was craving for vermicelli so I ordered the grilled pork vermicelli, while my husband ordered the grilled pork and shredded pork rice plate. My friends ordered the grill pork rice plate and a bowl of pho. The grilled pork was delicious with the right amount of char. The color is darker than some other Vietnamese restaurant which I do prefer the stronger flavor. Only if there is a bit more vegetables for the vermicelli it would be perfect. The rice plate was good too. I did tasted some of the shredded pork and the steamed egg and they tasted similar to other places. Some restaurants would provide a small bowl of soup with the rice plate but not here. We also ordered spring rolls to share. The rolls were ok and tasted like every other Vietnamese restaurant. The service was decent but they forgot to give us napkins, only the ones ordered the rice plate got their forks and knives wrapped in napkins. We had to ask for it but that was no big deal. The lady boss came over and asked if we wanted flan as they just made some. The picture looked great do we ordered one to share. It was pretty good but it would be better if there was more smooth and silky with less air bubbles. Over all it was a pretty good experience with good tasting food with friendly service.

this place was extremely good for pho in the tri valley the pho broth here is much flavorful (with floral hints) in compared to many pho places. i am so disappointed to find out it was closed and replaced with another restaurant. i will miss you guys!

Soup is very good, nice and seasoned and rich beefy flavor. Pho Dac Biet comes with steak, beef ball, tendon, flank, tripe and even a beef rib, so very good value. Ordered some vinegar white onions on the side with the steak and lime, makes for a perfect combo.

We just googled pho near us and took a chance on this restaurant and we've been back 3 times since! The service is quick and simple, they work fast and maintain a clean environment for everyone! The staff is very friendly and will help you with any questions you may have. Everything is provided at the table, napkins, condiments, utensils etc. we've tried the fresh spring rolls, fried chicken wings rice plates and of course their pho. Everything is absolutely delicious! Not overly sweet, not salty or greasy. It's a lot more hearty than other pho restaurants I've tried! I love the consistency and thickness of the broth, very well done! Everything tastes super fresh and their peanut sauce is delicious! The chicken wings are always on point too!! The only thing is, and I've seen this with a lot of restaurants after COVID, they don't have soy sauce. They offer seasoning sauce which taste completely different and is a sauce my family and I arent too fond of so if you ever need actual soy sauce, we normally ask the staff for some Togo soy sauce packets. Other than that this place is great! We will continue to dine here and introduce more of our family and friends to this establishment!

Wanted a light dinner and Yelp came through again. We were in Livermore so stopped by Viet Noms…read moreafter a short search through Yelp. This place has the usual fair like beef or chicken pho with different variations of meat. As well as Bun Bo Hue which I love but did not try here. My wife also loves Bun Rieu (a type of noodle soup with crab/meat balls). We both didn't order our favorite soups so we can share some light dishes instead. Shredded chicken salad in most Vietnamese places consists of thin shredded cabbage with onions and other thinly sliced veggies to complement the salad. Dressing is vinegar based and it was pretty tasty here. Shrimp chips are provided to use as a vessel for the salad for a crunch. I wish they provided more. Only three shrimp chips were provided for the salad. The tofu skin crispy shrimp cakes are really good. It's a light shrimp cake. I was surprised as I was expecting a dense shrimp cake. The spongy shrimp cake contrasted well with the crispy fried tofu skin that wraps the shrimp partty. Tofu skin on dishes like this ends up with two textures, crispy initially then a slight chew once the skin is moist from the juices of the shrimp patty. I enjoyed this very much. The Banh khot is the reason why we wanted to stop here. Banh khot lately has been making its viral fame circuit. But being a street comfort food it has a place in my heart. The shrimp banh hot here is a bit more in the plain side, being just the banh khot shell and a whole shrimp. I think some other places also has a bit of ground pork and onions mixture. The shell was flavorful with a coco nutty essence. If you dislike coconut then this might not be you're favorite but that's usual for this dish. My family makes it without but this version is still very tasty. Id come back if im in the area and wanted some Vietnamese street food snacks.
