    Beef pho
    Elijah T.

    I decided to try a place I've never been before to avoid a late night croud after a football game. I am glad I took the time to search up and discover Pho Tay Do! Everything was good!! (Apologies for the half eaten beef pho picture lol) Good quality and portion size. I ordered chicken wings on the side and they did not disappoint! Paired with sautéed onions and peppers /other veggies ! Staff was friendly and greeted me promptly with i walked in. I look forward to going back and trying another one of their dishes.

    Would come back again. Bun bo hue is missing huyết for those who craves it (blood). It's San Jose so totally understandable to look for those. I'm craving them so much! Chicken wings are crispy. Lots of choice and parking. The bowls are huuuuuuge! Be prepared to eat fully.

    Very good spot. The portions are hard to beat, the pho is delicious and the service is great and fast.... And those fried wontons are the best appetizer!!!!

    First time coming here! Service was quick. I ordered the Special Combo Pho. I thought the broth was delicious and the portion is very much worth the price that I paid ($17 before tips). It was a very LARGE portion. The meats were good, but I did think the rare meat was a bit gamey. I would prefer more veggies in the pho and they do use the dry noodles at this restaurant! I personally prefer the fresh noodles, but overall, I believe it is some good pho! 7/10.

    We were craving pho and drove past Pho Tay Do after exiting the highway. We decided to give it a shot and couldn't have enjoyed it more! The service was great and the broth was perfect for the cold weather in December. The menu and seats were clean as well. Would definitely come back

    The food was so good i forgot to take a pic.. Meat was perfectly cooked and tender, soup broth was clean and flavorful, and noodles were the right amount of chewy. Spring rolls were perfect. 10/10

    Always passed by here and we decided to just give this place a try instead of going to a place I've been before. It's got plenty of seating inside and outside. The decors make you feel like you are in Vietnam. Service was quick. The fried rice was yummy. Broth it came with we didn't like. Just lacked taste. The pho was great. The soup was flavorful just wish it had more tendon and tripe. I do like you have the options of small or large. Looking forward to trying other menu items.

    This spot is one of our got to spots when we don't want to go far from home. Nice & quaint atmosphere inside and they have outside tables too. The food & dishes have always been on point and always hot served with lots of flavor. I have yet to have a dish that was not delicious. The one downside to this place would be the small plastic cups they give customers for water. We are constantly having to ask for refills and when it's busy that can be a bit tricky. On the other hand you can be like me and bring your own H2o. The staff are all pretty polite & helpful, which is always a plus. Bathroom is universal and every time I have came to eat it has always been clean and tidy.

    Was really craving pho Sunday night after going out and this was one of the only places open until midnight. The inside of the restaurant is nice, clean, and small. The service was quick and standard. No small talk, just eat and go which we loved. I didn't have high expectations going in, but the pho here is actually pretty good. The broth is very beefy and rich but clean. The portions are pretty sizable and the price isn't bad. This will be my new go to late night pho spot!

We came pretty early, there were already people eating. We decided to sit outside since it was a nice day. There's a good number of seating outside. The inside looked a little cramped. The menu was pretty simple, soup, banh cuon and apps. I always take this as a good sign, it tells me that they specialize in a few things and it keeps ordering and deciding simple. We decided to go with the classic spring rolls, the crab noodle soup, and the #1 banh cuon special. The food came pretty quick. The spring rolls were spring rolls. It came with a side of peanut sauce, it was good. Shrimp and pork, can't go wrong. The crab soup was also good. The broth was quite flavorful, and there were plenty of crab meat, different types of meats, and plenty of noodles. It was a good bowl overall. The both of us really enjoyed it. The banh cuon was pretty disappointing, especially if this was their speciality. You get a few different types of rolls, all of them were average at best. None of the stood out. There was minced pork, minced dry shrimp and tofu? The flavors and taste just weren't there. The different meats on the side were good, that was probably the highlight of the dish. The shrimp chip thing was a pass. Overall, it was a good meal overall. No complaints. We would definitely come back for the soup. Banh cuon wise, most likely not.

The meat is so soft (I ask for medium rare) and it's cooked perfectly. It's super easy to eat and the flavor is so yummy. The red rice has a nice flavor and buttery taste to it. One thing I wanted to note is that I asked for no bell peppers and they cooked the onions perfectly. It's soft and pairs so well. I would definitely not ask for the do chua (carrot and daikon) and just sub it for extra lettuce next time. I'm literally craving the shaken beef plate again omg I gotta go back asap!

My wife and I tried it for the first time, and you can tell right away this place has been around and knows what it's doing. Simple setup; steady crowd even on a Sunday night; always a good sign. I ordered the large chicken pho, and my wife had the chicken fried rice, which she really enjoyed. The pho was excellent; rich, flavorful broth; great noodles; and a portion size that humbled me. I couldn't quite finish it, which doesn't happen often. Only minor note; I would've liked a few more vegetables, but I'm sure they would've brought more if I asked. Service is quick and efficient. Like many traditional pho spots, you eat first, then go up to the register and tell them your table number to pay; seasoned move is to remember your number and handle it like a regular. Five stars from me. I'll definitely be back; next time I've got my eye on the brisket. Honestly, it's tough to find really good pho in this part of San Jose without heading up to North San Jose or Milpitas, but if you're in the Cambrian area, this might be your spot.
