This was my second time here, and I was not super impressed. On the menu it sounds like several of the vegetarian items should be easily veganized, but when I asked our server she said she was only sure about 92 (veggie pho) and the tofu spring rolls. She said 92 was good so I ordered it. The pho noodles and toppings themselves were delicious, but I found the clear broth to be extremely bland. I also found a dead mosquito in my broth. I understand these things happen and the workers were all really nice so I didn't say anything at the time, but now I kind of wish that I had. read more

This is my go to spot every time we come to Costco. It's in the shopping center next to the Ross. The food and service is always on point, but my order got messed up, but I still ate it. Overall this place is one of my favorite Pho spots. The garlic chicken wings here are fire and I highly recommended it. read more

This is the worst Vietnamese restaurant food I have ever had. I have no idea why it has so many stars. I ordered for online delivery and it was all completely tasteless. I did not have the Pho and I know they are known for this but I did not want all the microsplastics from hot soup in plastic take away container so I got pad Thai, a rice dish and a vermicelli dish. They were completely tasteless. I have never had fish sauce be tasteless. The meat smell was gross. I don't even want to say what it smelled like but it made it hard to eat. The pad Thai tasted like blank noodles. It was literally the blandest mean I have ever eaten in my life. Do people get a free desert here if they do a positive yelp review? that is my only guess for why it has so many good reviews. read more

Ordered small pho and for bowl of photo and tasted okay. Almost finished and then saw big piece of chicken at bottom. Don't trust this restaurant to keep things clean. Not sure why chicken end up in bowl of pho. read more

A quaint little pho spot ! Like what another reviewer said, you know it's good when there's people willingg gg to eat outside in such a hot weather. Fast and friendly service as expected with these mom and pop places. I got the classic bon bo hue and it was delicious ! There's not a lot of places I can compare with pho places in LA so this really hit the spot. Overall: 9.5/10 recommend. read more

~3.5 stars for the pho and banh mi, rounded down since it really wasn't 4 for the food. I was looking for a place that had pho and banh mi that had cha lua in the area and found this place. Pho - noodles too soft, soup too sweet, oxtail too fatty. This was the 29House Special Beef Noodle Soup. Banh mi - pate tasted too strongly of iron, pork was too sweet. I wouldn't rule out eating their banh mi again but would do cha lua only with an egg. This was the 10Grilled Pork Sandwiches With Cha Lua Vietnamese Sausage. Friendly and fast staff during our quiet visit. Contemporary decor. read more

I passed by this place for a decade while shopping at Costco. I finally decided to try it out. I'm so glad that I did. Food is delicious. I had the rare steak pho. My companion had the free range chicken sour and spicy soup. He said it was one of the best soups that he has ever had. We also had the chicken spring rolls which were really delicious. Dipping sauce was Nuoc Nam Sauce instead of a peanut sauce. Bathrooms were ok but they keep a stockpile in the gender neutral bathroom. I was surprised that it was pretty busy in there. There were at least 3 families and 5 singles eating there at 7 pm on a Tuesday night. Highly recommend and it will be in the pho rotation! read more

Came here for pho during Friday lunch--pretty busy, which was expected. I've always been curious about this place since it's been around for years, and I finally gave it a try. Overall, I'd call it subpar to decent pho--not great, not terrible, just meh. The portions are generous, especially the meat. Noodles were fine. The broth had decent flavor when warm, but it wasn't hot enough and cooled down quickly. Once it cooled, the flavor really fell flat, and the rare steak didn't fully cook through. The garnishes felt a bit lazy--green onions weren't chopped well, so you'd get random big chunks. That said, the portions will likely leave you full. But if you're here for rich, flavorful pho? This probably isn't it. read more

Randomly decided to grab dinner here after a Costco trip. This place surprised me, and I'm definitely adding it to my rotation. No complaints here, and a much closer alternative to driving to SJ for pho! The pho broth tasted "cleaner" to me, and I didn't have to down cups of water after eating. I also got the rice plate and tried to switch it up getting the BBQ pork chop but it was too dry for my liking. I need to just stick with the BBQ sliced pork because I can never go wrong there. Portion was pretty big, I took it home to eat for lunch the next day. read more

The customer service is very nice and attentive. The food is not bad...but also not as authentic as I would've hoped. The staff are definitely Vietnamese but it's vastly lacking compared to most pho restaurants I've been to. I ordered the bun bo hue and the moment it was placed down I was already surprised to see the color, none of that ruby color whatsoever. But the taste is not bad, for maybe those who are trying bbh for the first time. I could not rly taste the lemongrass and most disappointing is I couldn't taste any of the shrimp paste at all. Perhaps no chili either?! Very much NOT aromatic for an originally rich dish. & It rly felt like looking for scraps of noodles in the bowl, I had maybe only 5 spoonfuls of noodles. The rest were sliced meats but not of good quality.... For bbh I prefer more noodles because the star is the broth. The rest of my family also said their dish was lackluster. It doesn't have the right base and spices as it would normally have. I looked at my husband's bo luc lac and even that didn't look like it usually does. Again, not bad. I think it's a good start for ppl not very familiar with Vietnamese food, but for those who are familiar, it leaves you wanting more in quality and quantity. read more

Love the pork, shrimp, and lobster spring rolls here so much, and with the sweet and nutty peanut sauce - very delicious! Lobster mango roll has great flavor - rich and tangy. Shrimp has nice bounce. Blend of herbs and veggies used in the rolls are superb and incredibly refreshing. Pork meat can be a little dry. read more

Located in the same plaza as Costco's Mountain View warehouse, Pho Tran Vu is a humble, local eatery offering a huge menu of Vietnamese dishes. My pick was the Banh Hoi Tom Thit Nuong, a plate of thin woven vermicelli, grilled marinated pork, shrimp, and fresh vegetables, including lettuce, mint, lettuce, daikon, and cucumbers, along with fish sauce on the side for dipping. The plate was set up to make delicious lettuce wraps with the vermicelli, grilled meats, and herbs. I also sampled the pho broth, which was laden with MSG. In general, everything we had was decent, though not at the peak of freshness. The prices were high for what we got, and the restaurant could have been cleaner, but the service was quick and friendly. read more

This was a 3.75 experience overall-- I was a fan of the portion size (pretty classic) and the cheaper cash option was a plus. Interior was fairly clean and staff were friendly and efficient. I got the beef belly pho and my only complaint was that the soup was a little saltier than I would've preferred-- definitely needed a lot of water with the meal. Otherwise, solid spot overall and nestled nicely in the Costco plaza in MV! read more

Located in Mountain View, parking is plentiful and easy to find. The surrounding is pretty nice as there's a Costco and Krispy Kreme. The interior is a bit small but makes good use of the space. Noise level was pretty average but it was quite busy. House Special Beef Noodle Soup (4/5): super flavorful. The meat was tender and chewy. I enjoyed the thin slices of brisket. I wish the oxtail was a bit more cooked though. Tap to pay is accepted. Overall Pho Tran Vu is a great pho place. The food is pretty good, but it does get pretty busy during peak hours. read more

I came here with my mom and kids because of the good reviews. I ordered a pho tai bo vien, and my mom ordered something weird they recommended. When our food came out, there was so little noddles in my bowl. About 4 big bites worth. My mom's bowl looked like a pile of mushy stuff in her noodles and was so plain and underwhelming. Not sure why all the good reviews, but I won't be coming back. read more

Phở Trần Vũ has easily become one of my go-to spots. The food is always fresh, fast, and consistent every single time. I also love how they set everything up so you have your own sauces, chopsticks, and napkins ready to go. No need to flag anyone down just to get the basics. But honestly, the reason I keep coming back goes beyond the food. A lot of Asian restaurants fall short on customer service, they drop off your food, refill water once, and that's about it. But not here. The team at Phở Trần Vũ actually treats you like a real customer. They check in, they make sure you're taken care of, and it feels like they actually want to be doing what they do. Great food, great service, great people. That combination is rare, and they nail it EVERY time. Highly recommend. (I have been there 3 times this week!) read more

My second time being here with my fam and I think it's safe to say this is our new favorite spot to come by after a 49ers game. The food is delicious and the staff is are always so nice!

I've been coming here for a long time but recently started noticing cigarettes smell coming into the restaurant. To my surprise, the staff casually sit right outside the front door, on the dining tables mind you, smoking cigarettes and having a grand ol time out there. This is against the law for one, and two, the fact that they are oblivious to this kind of stuff makes me worry what else they are oblivious to in the back. read more

You know a pho restaurant is good when it's still poppin when it's 90 degrees and people are willing to sit outside to eat. My friend and I went here for lunch and ordered two bowls of their house special pho with wide flat noodles along with two Vietnamese coffees. The broth was so hearty, but light and clean tasting at the same time. The bowls of pho also came with so much meat it was WILD because I was basically eating meat the entire time and was barely able to eat any of my noodles after. Their chili oil is also AMAZING..it had a unique smokey flavor to it and I couldn't stop adding it to my meat. This place is family owned so I could tell they really put extra love and care into all of their food. The servers were hustling to get all the orders out and always made sure everyone was taken care of too. Definitely a go to spot for viet food for me now! read more

Amazing food! Do not miss eating here. Authentic and quick service. Very nice staff. Lots of place to sit.

I came here the other day with my family and O.M.G, everything was so good. The service is sweet and on top of that the food was delicious. I got this new special dish Filet Mignon with French Fries, something similar to Lomo Saltado but it's more Vietnamese fusion and I was so satisfied with it. Everyone comes to this restaurant must try this out. read more

One of the best Pho restaurants in the Bay Area. Broth is very potent in flavor and servings are generous. Spring rolls are tasty and packed with flavor.
