Pho Tran Vu - 202 Crab Meat And Shrimp With Udon Soup. OMG is Delicious Mammamia - Vietnamese Near Me - Mountain View, California

Solid pho restaurant without having to drive further south - this is one of our go to places when we're looking for food before a Costco run. I will say that my experiences here have gone down vs our first few times. Pros: -Decent pho - I always get the large pho with rare steak and my husband does the seafood pho. I've had the vermicelli bowls and Vietnamese iced coffee, all pretty good. Soup portions are solid. -Fast service - Food comes out fairly quickly, consistent with other pho restaurants. -Outdoor and indoor seating - thankful for outdoor seating options, especially during the spring / summer. Shaded, though in a strip mall. -Kid -ok - I wouldn't call it kid friendly, but we've hauled our stroller and toddler here including the inside and they accommodated us. Room for improvement: -Cleanliness - I don't get a "clean" vibe when I eat here, even though the interior is fairly modern with a large screen tv etc. Examples include small flies around the lime/sprouts, chemical cleaner exposed in the restaurant, stuff that people can touch walking to bathroom -Portions - While a large bowl of pho a has reasonable amount of soup and ok re noodles, I feel like the beef portions could be more generous -Service - Attentive but a little off, though the owner does come by and say hi Prices are a little high but reasonable given the area. Overall I give them a solid 3.5 stars and do come back, but I wouldn't drive here just for the food. - read more

I come to this restaurant at least 1 a week. I like the food and staff. That is why I gave 3 star. I am an Uber driver. I always recommended this restaurant to my customers, who came into the Bay Area for work and stayed nearby the restaurant. However, I won't come back. I finished my meal this evening after a long day of driving. I didn't even get a chance to drink the water. The waitress (she is new) came over with credit card machine, forcing me to pay. It was a hint to get me out. I paid and gave 25% tip. However, There were no customers waiting. Yes I was watching a movie on my phone, but was not planning to stay long. Just need a little time to unwind. Forcing paid customer to leave but allowed homeless guy to sit outside at one of the tables. I love California but sometimes I just don't get it. Homeless is more valuable than paying customers. 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. The Thai tea is not too sweet and tastes pretty genuine. I came here a lot during my undergrad at Stanford, as it was way better than the Pho on university Avenue. read more

Food was amazing. Pho has so much flavor! Recommend the garlic chicken wings and the beef sandwich! Basically everything on the menu is good! Service is fast and staff is attentive and nice. read more

Pleasantly surprised I got take out from here and tried their rare steak and brisket pho. They packaged all the ingredients individually and gave me plenty of sprouts, basil, and jalapeños. They also provided condiments and lemon/lime. The meat was tender and the broth was savory. Large is LARGE. Their bahn mi is solid too. Prices very reasonable and they make the food quickly. read more

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

Reasonable prices, extensive menu, efficient service makes it easy to see why this place gets pretty busy during the weekends. I had a banh mi before that wasn't memorable, but I missed out on trying some of the more interesting items until now. Ordered the #223 beef congee. First few spoonfuls were great - salty, savory, not too soupy. I added the provided toppings (lime, sliced jalapeños, bean sprouts) but it made the dish worse (watery, sour, harder to slurp). I would not recommend it, but I couldn't resist using the free toppings. The free table-side sauces (chili oil, chili paste, sriracha) were great though. Looking forward to trying other dishes! read more

Located in the same plaza as Costco. The pho was just ok. Not much protein and a little too sweet of broth. But the food came out very fast. The service was good though. Indoor and outdoor seating available Credit cards accepted Plenty of parking read more

Pho Tran Vu is in the Costco/Total Wine complex, adjacent to Hwy 101, so just drive into the parking lot and you'll find it. Menu is extensive with plenty of sections that go beyond your typical Pho Viet cuisine, including fried rice, udon, and Bahn Mi. We ordered: House Special Beef Noodle Soup... bear in mind, this is really just a combo Pho soup with rare steak. The rice noodles are thicker in width and ribbon style, which I like alot. Lots of rare steak included, more than the usual 4-5 strips. There was even a cross section of oxtail that was tender and delicious. For Pho soups, this is right up there among the best and unique. Garlic Fried Chicken Soggier than it should be, but still good. The sauce is a little sweet, and 5 or 6 wings sit on a bed of shredded cabbage. Crush ground beef congee The rice grains itself were excellent, but I thought there was way too much dried garlic bits and shallots overwhelming the dish. The beef (extremely tasty) appeared in small bites and grounded bits. Location is Food was prepared in average time and they brought me a free iced tea while I waited. I'll definitely return for the Bahn Mi at some point. that's all read more

Fantastic authentic pho and great service! Portions are generous and the pho broth was delicious. Staff is very friendly, and offered a mini chicken wing appetizer for our first visit. Nice decor, clean, and overall enjoyable ambience. Recommend. read more

Awesome food and great service. Happy I found this gem! I will definitely try other dishes and keep coming back

TLDR: Decent Viet near Costco. I like the environment... nice plush seats, no sticky floor. It's a good place to eat. I wouldn't say the food is outstanding, especially when you compare to Little Saigon where I live. But it's good. My wife was dissuaded from ordering her chicken with dark meat. She said that breast meat is usually dry, but the waitress quickly re-assured her that "theirs is cooked moist". No... it wasn't. Still kinda dry. Wife also ordered the vermicelli instead of the usual pho rice noodle. She said it was good. The Chicken Broth was just... ok. I'm more of a chicken eater than a pork eater (Gout). So I was a little little bit dismayed that their is so many more options for pork rice dishes than chicken. Pork had options for egg rolls, shredded pork skin, egg cake, etc. Chicken had... Chicken and shrimp or grilled chicken. DISAPPOINTED! So I ordered the grilled pork, because I wanted to try their variety. The egg cake and pork skin were decent, about the same as other places. The grilled pork was cooked unevenly. Some parts were nice and juicy... some of the thinner parts were dry. I like their broken rice, they give quite a bit. Their pickled veggies are a bit spicy? Which is a bit of a surprise to us. Overall, nothing special. It's a step above the Viet Chain Restaurants. If we do go back, it'll only be because we want to eat somewhere near Costco. read more

Stopped by on a Sunday evening around 5pm. The restaurant had plenty of seats and booths inside. There were actually a lot of people there at the time almost all tables were taken. We got seated right away and both servers had a great positive attitude. They checked in multiple times to make sure everything was alright. We had the chicken broth noodle only pho and the beef ball pho. Super tasty! They accept cards and cash As far as cleanliness - it was pretty clean. The only issue I had was the hallway to the restroom- they use it as storage but that area isn't well kept. Restroom is unisex but very clean and tidy They also have seating areas outside . read more

So good . The Garlic chicken wings are so good you must stop and try the spring rolls and the peanut sauce!! Delicious

Flavorful Pho. Ambiance is great. Fast service. I wish they would open another location in Redwood City. Very much recommended.

Good service, fast, reasonable price and in the same lot as Costco so it's perfect. Lots of parking spaces. Foods are good based on what I've ordered so far. Pho with rare beef. The oxtail side order is prepped just right. I wish there are two instead of one for a side order. The rice with Korean beef ribs are also very good! The drinks I ordered on two occasions are chanh muoi and xi muoi are very good!! Ambiance: First time was very loud due this one group about 12. Very loud, rude and acted like this is their own house instead of a restaurant. Many customers were annoyed by that but they are clueless and classless. "Money cannot buy class and etiquette" is a perfect saying with this group. The women dressed like street walker and they are in their 40-50s. Their English is worse than FOB, sad. I am embarrassed to say these people are Vietnamese. We are not like that. 2nd time I was there, it was great when that classless group was not there. read more

Truly the worst restaurant I have been to in the Bay Area. We ordered a Pad Thai for our party with no bean sprouts and no spice. Over 30 minutes passed and we didn't receive it. When we asked someone for it he put it in and said it was coming. But when we paid the lady upfront argued with me and said we never ordered the Pad Thai. Woman we have three whole witnesses who saw us ALL order the pad thai. $70 with no tip--and for disgusting food, meat was so bland, we didn't finish any of our meals. Absolutely horrid experience, we will never recommend anyone to come here. I'm pretty sure their food is all old and stocked in the back because everything was cold. Never coming back. Save your money. read more

delicious food but pretty pricey pho: we got the signature pho that had a sampling of all the meats, was pretty disappointed with the oxtail- was pretty tough while i feel like so many other places make oxtail fall off the bone overall very nice and hit the spot shrimp spring roll: generous shrimp portion, can't go wrong tip: sit inside since the outside tables don't have branded sriracha bottles at the moment read more

Was craving Viet food so came here with my friend. She got a rice dish that was pretty good. I got Bun Bo Hue! It was delicious, weirdly no pork hock in it. Also it was $18! I guess those are peninsula prices. It's convenient and good, but price wise I'd go else where if I didnt mind leaving the area. read more

Really great, friendly service and flavorful Vietnamese fusion food. We ordered the Pho Tai and the BBQ Pork with rice. The large pho bowl is huge and the noodles are super fresh. The rice set also came with a small salad and consommé. If you like meat forward broths, both the pho and consommé should be on your list. I really wanted a spring roll but couldn't handle a full order and appreciated the staff accommodating the extra add-on. They were so friendly, they also provided samples of their new chicken wings that were delicious, we will order again next time! Last thing, which seems small but I appreciated every glass of water had a slice of lemon - it's those small attention to detail that makes me appreciate this restaurant. It was our first visit and we plan to return. Parking is easy - huge lot next to the restaurant. Covid safety: There are a number of outside seating options for folks who aren't ready to dine indoors yet! About half of the tables also had heating lamps above them. read more

Was craving some Vietnamese food after a 2 week vacation and drinking the night before at NKOTB at Shoreline. Good pho and I've eaten a lot of pho. This place rivals my some of my favorite spots in San Jose! Came in for a late lunch and we were the only diners. The male server was nice. The food came out quickly. I got a bowl with different cuts of beef and tripe with fresh noodles! I love tripe and I've noticed a lot of pho places stopped offering it. There was a good meat to noodle ratio. The broth was not too salty, not too oily, and I happily slurped it up after I finished up the meat and noodles. The veggies were fresh. I thought the prices were reasonable for the amount of meat given. They didn't rush us to pay after we were done eating - even though they were closing early for the Fourth of July. read more

Yum!! Stopped by to order take-out before shopping at Total Wines. This place is in the back of a main plaza in Mt View that has all the major drive-ins Mc Donalds, in&out, krispy kreme, and of course the biggest shop is Costco. They have outdoor dining but u can walk in to order take-out. Took suggestion from yelp elite friend's review and ordered the grilled chicken over rice and pork spring rolls.. my bf ordered the chicken/shrimp fried rice. It was ready after our total wines shopping trip.. they said it would only take 15 mins. They include alot of chili hot sauce with appropriate other sauces like peanut for the spring roll and a sweet oil one for the rice dish. The servings are very generous and the food was super fresh and delicious! Very satisfying and would be back if i were in the area. The woman taking my order was so kind as well! Would def want to support this business again. read more

Surprisingly cozy and relaxing ambiance with a good amount of larger tables. Great value- about $20 for a huge bowl of pho. Lots of meat and the brother was flavorful. One of the top 10 Pho spots I've been to in the Bay - broth is great just a little less complex and oilier than I've had elsewhere. Will return. read more
