Pho Thin Ha Noi - When I'm home - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

New Hanoi style Pho restaurant in Milpitas. I ordered the special Shaken Beef Pho ($14.50) First and foremost the Broth is delicious, without any condiments of Hoisin sauce or Sriracha which they ran-out of, so they made this crazy flavorful blended Thai pepper sauce which was hot and delicious. The Broth was full of veggies and green onions and have that flavorful bone marrow. Overall this new restaurant is on point with this Hanoi style Pho. read more

The ladies were nice, the guy working here couldn't understand a word we said, not even when we asked for hot tea. The broth was bland, the meatballs had no taste to them (how?!) and worst of all, my party and I both got food poisoning soon after. Looking back, it makes sense how we got sick - The broth was hot but not boiling hot when it arrived, the rare steak sitting in the broth was cooked to medium rare which is fine for me as long as that steak was stored properly before serving patrons in which this case, I doubt!. I spent the night tossing and turning due to chills, nausea, vomit and you know the rest. Slept 16 hours to allow my body fight it off only to wake up feeling like I got hit by a truck. Beware of this place! read more

#21 rice plate with grilled meat Generous serving of grilled Meat juicy, charred, tender. Broken rice has a nutty flavor. Crisp, fresh veggies with deeply flavorful sweet fish sauce, and a savory consommé. A perfectly executed grilled meat and rice plate in the Vietnamese style. Can't go wrong with it! read more

This is the main location, with a second newer location in Fremont. The service was phenomenal. I believe it was the owner serving us- he was so positive, frank, and humorous. When I walked in he asked if it was my first time there (yes) and then joked that it wouldn't be my last (he's right). This restaurant gives Pho Hanoi (my favorite in the bay area) a run for its money. I ordered the #2 Pho (rare steak) and was delighted by how hearty and well-balanced the broth was. My preference was for the banh tuoi, or "fresh noodle" which is thicker and softer- and they also serve the thinner, chewier rice noodles most people are more familiar with. The herbs were extremely fresh, bean sprouts blanched, onions thinly sliced and vinegared (probably not a verb, but you get my point) to perfection. Note, this is northern style pho which focuses more on a simple broth with green onion and ginger, and less emphasis on the different cuts of beef featured in the southern style. AND HOW could I almost forget- they make their own chili sauce in house! This was a huge plus for me- an addictingly hot kick compared to Sriracha which is subtle and sweeter. My mouth is watering just typing about their chili sauce. The ambiance was sleek and modern. Extremely clean here. I'll be a regular here. See you next time! read more

Pho Thin Ha Noi - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Returned and gave this another try. The flavor and quality returned. Glad my wife told me to give them another chance.

way to expensive now and there is only one size for pho so you will be paying at least 21 dollars a bowl regardless

I can't say enough good things about Pho Thin HaNoi. I had lunch here with my wife and we both agreed that, the pho here is somewhat unique to other pho places, with good portion sizes. Prices are very reasonable, staffs are very friendly, and helpful. We got recommended to try the number 1, "simply because you can't order it elsewhere in the Bay Area," according to the staff we talked to. The broth is somewhat subtle, with a strong presence of garlicky flavor which I liked a lot, felt like Mama's home-cooked pho. All our foods were cooked well, and served fast. Good location in Milpitas area, with plenty of parking spaces. I can't wait to come back for more. Cheers! read more

This place is hands down the best Vietnamese food I've ever had. Including the time I spent in Vietnam. The restaurant is very clean and organized and the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. But beyond all that I will repeat the food was amazing. The egg cake and shrimp cakes rice plate with shredded pork and pork chop was awesome. I cannot wait to come back again read more

Pho Thin Ha Noi is hands down one of my favorite spots in town. My brother and I come here at least once a month, and every single time we order the com tam--and every single time, it's perfect. The grilled meat is flavorful, the rice is cooked just right, and the portions? Generous without being overwhelming. For the price you pay, it honestly feels like a steal. The value is unmatched. On top of that, the service is consistently great--fast, friendly, and always attentive without hovering. It's the kind of place that never lets you down, no matter how many times you go. Highly recommend to anyone looking for solid Vietnamese food done right. This place is a gem. read more

Went on a Saturday during lunch time around 1pm. Didn't have to wait to be seated. They only have one size for their pho and it's $15. Good portion of noodles and meat for the amount you pay for. The reason it's 3 stars is because the noodles were over cooked. Would definitely go back and give it another chance. read more

Pho Thin Ha Noi - #1 - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

I miss the original restaurant. Although the staff I encountered there were polite, I was not happy with the food. I asked the young woman working the register if the meatball rolls were 2 large rolls cut in half(making 4 total), she said yes, so I ordered 2 orders. When I opened the box, the rolls were just 2 regular sized ones and one of the sauces was less than half filled. The smoothie I ordered was also VERY sweet as if they added a cup of sugar and they also add milk. Idk maybe I'm not realizing something? read more

Pho Thin Ha Noi - This is NOT 2 large rolls cut in half and the amount of sauce I was given was less than half filled! I miss the original place. - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Huge bowl. Great broth and meats. Love the red sauce. Quick service. Lots of searing. Easy parking. Will come again.

The Pho was amazing! I ended up ordering the chicken breast pho, And my best friend ordered the pho. The broth was amazing on both of them. The pork rolls were so good, And don't get me started on their lemonade iced tea. It was amazing! The only reason my best friend and I did not order an extra drink to go. It's because we were so full. But the service was great. Everyone was so friendly. And the ambience was such a nice little set up. We are definitely making the 2 hour drive back, to eat here again on day! read more

This place is a solid 3 (solid meh) when it comes to their signature dish: Pho Thin Ha Noi and everything else pretty much. The pho is meh--the bo tai (rare steak) was over cooked, the garlic was overpowering, the sweetness of the broth tasted artificial. Sweetness from pho should come from marrow and natural sugars from vegetables or fruit stewed. The sauces were kept in little white jars with scoops. I don't like this setup because who knows who has used that scooper and did they do a double dip thing? I prefer the squeeze bottles at each table. The highlight of the meal was the nem nuong sauce. If you like spicy sauces, this one is pretty good. I eat really spicy so this one was pleasantly warm. To most folks though, this would probably make your mouth burn. The cafe sua da (VN iced coffee) was pretty standard. I came here on a hot day and they had the front doors open, no AC! I really did feel like I was eating Pho Ha Noi in Ha Noi. The staff were very pleasant and friendly. Overall, would I come here again? I would if it was late at night and I was in the neighborhood. I wouldn't plan on coming here just to eat pho. There are so many other choices, I would keep moving on. read more

I've been hearing a lot of people talking about pho thin coming from ha noi and they all told me it wasn't good at all...that make me want to come and try out. Honestly, this pho is not my cup of coffee. There is no pho smell beside a the smell of fish sauce. The meat is good but everything else are not. Service: 1/5 - the restaurant wasn't busy when I show up right at 10am but two guys plus the girl didn't even serve me until I say something. The girl took my order wasn't well trained I can tell but that's fine. At least speak a little bit clearly so I can hear. A spoon which was placed on the table is still dirty. The person who did the dishwashing probably doesn't give a damn about making sure it clean. That also includes the person who placed the utensils on the table as well. Food: I ordered a bowl of Pho #1 and one order of eggroll and a avacado shake. The person taking my order said the avacado shake is not avaible because the employee that made the drink doesn't come in today? ‍ anyway that's fine! The bowl of pho doesn't taste like pho to me. I'm not sure why others think this pho is called pho but anyway I let you guys judge in that. The eggroll was small and the sauce doesn't go together with the eggroll..a little Asian confusion instead of Asian fusion. My mouth and body started to react after eating a little of the foods...too much MSG. Parking: There are lots of parking spaces Among Pho restaurants, i will not recommend this to everyone. This is my first and last time! read more

Slightly unique tasting pho. It doesn't have the typical pho that you probably have eaten before. It's less sweet. The boat load of green onions actually is very tasty. You should give this place a shot. Im Vietnamese and somewhat sick of eating the same flavored pho everywhere I go. read more

Anyone giving this place a low rating is not Vietnamese or has never been to Viet Nam. Do not claim you know anything about pho if you aren't. So all those reviews are invalid in my opinion. This restaurant features traditional Hanoi style pho - which is not the pho you are used to eating. Most the pho places you know serve Saigon style pho. The difference is this - Hanoi style pho focuses on the beef flavor in the broth and less on spices and star anise. Some may view this kind of broth as more "plain". Saigon style pho is more fragrant and Star anise forward. I actually quite liked the broth - I'm a purist and do not add any sriracha or hoisin sauce in the broth. The beef is the true star here. Their specialty is the sautéed beef which was really tender. read more

Pho Thin Ha Noi - #3 pho tai chin - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

Came here just before noon and there was a small waiting line but did not have to wait long before being seated. The pho was served in an extremely large bowl, but the broth was a little bland as per other reviews. The meat portion was very generous, was marinated and a bit tenderised, slightly marinated with bits of garlic on it. The broth did taste a little better after adding the marinated meat in it. A lot of pho places will tell you their noodles are "fresh" but they don't come out fresh. The ones here are legitimately fresh and soft. This is the best noodles I've had so far in pho. Spring rolls - really fresh with cucumbers, and the meat was cooked differently (usually it's boiled but this looked grilled). However, they gave a weird sauce which was a mixture of thousand island and something sweet. It was not the same sauce as advertised on their screens (peanut sauce). It was also the same sauce they served with the chicken wings. Chicken wings came and looked really appetising, love the honey sauce on it. BUT. The drumlets were really, really fatty and you can tell the wings were from frozen. The restaurant looks newly renovated and clean, and looks a bit like a jazz bar! read more

My mom, who's never recommended a pho place before, has been raving about this restaurant for a while - and for good reason! I recommend the #2 - the meat is tender and the noodles are cooked well. The broth also isn't too heavy. Feels very homemade! Call beforehand to make sure they're not sold out! (They will lock the door and put up a sold out sign) They're also giving 20% discount until the end of June. read more

Northern style Vietnamese pho....more like it's a no for me. I have tried alot of pho in the south bay and this place left much to be desired. Like a cup of water because you'll get cotton mouth about 5 minutes after eating it. It started off decent... I walked in with my dad and uncle and got seated right away. The restaurant was a bit busy for a newly opened place. So we thought positive! Our server did come quickly with water and then took our orders. After placing her order of three pho orders our bowls came pretty quickly afterwards. Then came the pho fixings with veggies, herbs and bean sprouts...but practically half of the veggies were wilted. We managed to get some of the fresh basil leaves but then we tried the broth...I don't mind msg in my food, but I think this place went over board and left me sooo thirsty afterwards. My dad and I were pretty disappointed. I'm hoping this was just a fluke and they are just getting their shit together, but damn cool it on the additives! Flavor should be coming from the bones, meat and herbs! They do have fresh noodles with a good texture but it does not make up for their low quality meats and msg filled broth. Would be reluctant to return to this place any time soon. :( read more

Came here on a Sunday and the place was bustling. Luckily, there was no wait. Decor is the same as the previous owner so you will feel like you're still dining at Com Tam Thein Houng. We ordered 1 bowl of their seared/fried beef pho and 1 bowl of Rare with Brisket. They only serve one size here and for us, it was ALOT of food. I could only finish half of my bowl. This definitely is Northern Vietnamese Pho. You won't smell the usual aromatics associated with Southern Vietnamese pho. Definitely lighter with stronger notes of ginger. I felt the seared rare beef (#1) was much more flavorful than the regular beef options. The big caveat is that they do use msg. I react by getting a crazy tummy ache followed by a long nap that feels drug induced. So skip this place if you're sensitive to msg. One of the workers there use to work for the previous owner (older gentleman delivering the bowls of pho). The rest of the staff are new so service is super slow. It was a good 40 min wait for 2 bowls. I'll chalk it up to being new. Hopefully they work out the kinks. I really miss the old rice plate place. Hopefully they will eliminate the msg. :) read more

First time we came here was back in the summer when they first opened. My BF and I loved it. The broth was great and lots of flavor. My bf kept raving about it. Have have since ordered to go once before. Today, we ordered to go again but this time, the broth was super oily. After 2 bites, I had to stop. It was making me want to throw up. I'm a little sensitive to super oily things or fatty meats. My bf even said it's no longer his favorite. You can see in the picture of his soup the layer of oil. He still ate the noodle and meat. Second picture is of my bowl. I didn't finish it. Everyone is really nice overall. Place looks nice and clean. Giving 3 stars because the first two times was great and the ppl were nice. Will probably give it another chance and then update review again. Maybe it's a one time fluke. It happens. read more

If you want a authentic broth , it s not worth the try! If you want just a beef broth, go ahead , try! Little veggie and sauce like the pictures! Dont let pictures deceive you!

Pho is decent and has lots of green onions. The staff are extremely welcoming and nice. The ambiance honestky got me really tired and sleepy though bc of the lullaby music they were playing around 3 pm (when the kitchen takes their lunch break). Overall a decent pho place that offers thin and wide noodles. But for those who like flavor make sure you add the sauces to your broth! I really liked the meats that was in my combo pho bc it was fresh and tender. The noodles themselves seemed a little too soft but it's okay. read more

Finally, I have my favorite Pho restaurant in town. The com tam tastes like the dish in Vietnam. The barbecue pork is really moist and juicy, it's not dry at all. My favorite food is Pho Thin #1, I like the beef garlic sizzling in the bowl that make the both more fragrant, I like when they make their own chili sauce. There's lots of green onion in the soup. I would love to recommend this place to all my friends and family. Thank you for putting more food on the menu. read more

Seriously so good. Those fresh noodles are life changing. If you aren't getting them then you're doing it WRONG! They use super fresh and whole ingredients and it doesn't leave you feeling heavy and sleeping aka the perfect hangover cure . Their house made spicy sauce is a MUST TRY and the meat in their pho and fresh spring rolls is so high quality and delicious. The chicken wings are so tender and delicious. The soup came out almost immediately after we ordered so I was very excited! Their recipe is from Ha Noi in Northern Vietnam, word has been spreading so lots of people have been coming and loving the pho. So much that I hear they've even been selling out. (Not sure if this is still happening but just what i heard lol) This is definitely my new go-to pho spot! I've been craving it ever since. read more

Pho Thin Ha Noi - IG: @EatwithSie || #1 Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Milpitas, California

I really wanted to love this place, but the soup base was lacking in depth and flavor. I added the fish sauce, hoisin and hot sauce, but it was still missing the pho taste. The dish came with vinegar onion which other restaurants normally charge- I love to mix it with their hot sauce and dip it into the pho. The meat was tender and fresh and the soup was not oily as some had complained of- but the huge factor was the broth was not flavorful which can make or break a pho dish. Water came in a carafe san ice and plastic cups. I wish they would of used regular cups to be environmentally friendly. They could put the vinegar onions on the herb tray to reduce a dish. There were few other patrons in the restaurant around 5:30PM on Sunday so food came out quickly. As far as the staff, they were really nice and helpful. I'll be rooting for the restaurant to implement some changes to the broth and hoping this place can stay afloat. read more

After the gym, my GF and I decided we wanted to grab a bite to eat, and we also wanted to try something new. We have our go-to's for pho so we wanted to expand out and try a new place. We came upon Pho Thin Hanoi since we were in the area, and we walked in right when they opened. The restaurant is very clean, smelled like cleaning solution when we walked in. Everything was nice and neat. This is Northern style pho, a little different from southern style. We've had northern before and we actually prefer it sometimes because of the change in flavors. We started with the fresh spring rolls, they were good. It came with shrimp and grilled pork, dipped in a peanut type of sauce. You can't ever go wrong with spring rolls. I personally went with the #5, steak, flank and meatball with fresh noodles. I like the fresh noodles because it's softer, and holds flavor better than the regular pho noodles. When the bowl came out, it was PIPING hot, just the way I like my pho. Be careful. It was filled with green onions and cilantro, also a BIG plus. The broth was good, not as flavorful as southern but it was smooth and the smell was amazing. There was a good amount of meat in the bowl. The steak isn't your sliced steak, it's been tenderized and it was very tender. It was a good bowl of pho. We were definitely happy walking out. The food was good, service was good. What more can you ask for? read more

Kinda embarrassed to admit it but since my first review two wks ago, I've taken my aunt, parents and friends here- which is to say I've been here a total of four times the past two weeks. I basically just tell them to add bean sprouts in lieu of any noodles cuz I feel like a pig- and well with the weather, my current apparent phobsession is hella dialed up. I know I'll hit a wall and not eat pho for months. But I'll always recommend this to anyone who wants a slightly different beef pho experience. More pics to add to this review. read more

Eh, I learned that either I do not like northern pho or this place misrepresents northern pho. Loved the massive bowl of soup and veggies mixed in. Also loved the meat that was tender and flavorful. Noodles were soft - maybe that is what is meant by fresh noodles, but I like some chew in my noodles. Boyfriend got the thin noodles but they also lacked chew (soggy). Broth was "light" but every recipe for northern pho online still has some element of a warming spice (cardamom, cinnamon, anise, etc etc). This tasted like... unseasoned broth. So I guess I will have to experience pho in the north to see for myself whether this was true to northern pho. Oh, also - spring roll dipping sauce was great, as was the chili (really nice fermented chili taste! Pungent!). Spring roll had great fillings but were rolled very poorly, and also small. read more

The aroma from the flavorful broths simmering in the kitchen is the first impression of the restaurant. My mouth was watering and I knew the pho would be delicious. I was not disappointed. Tender rice noodles with beef brisket and garnishes of Thai basil, bean sprouts, and lime for the perfect taste of the pho. We were the only white people in there. I was glad to see that the restaurant does not cater to the typical American palate. Highly recommend. read more
