SF Kitchen serves Vietnamese and Chinese food. Parking is plentiful. The interior is clean. Service is fast. My favorite appetizer is their summer rolls. It is packed with flavor of the grilled pork. My husband ordered Mongolian beef over rice. It was different than the normal flavors. The sauce was too salty and it didn't have any spiciness. We were a little disappointed. Overall, we enjoy coming here during our Reno visits. On a personal note, the pho soup is very good.
Amazing, good service and fast! Super delicious food. Great lunch deals. Came with soup and a drink and the food was so good!!
Tried the Pho #4 with Raw Steak & Flank Steak and Honey Walnut Prawns w/ fried rice. Honey walnut prawns were battered and fried crispy; mayo sauce was slightly sweet in flavor with a hint of lemon. Upgraded to Fried rice for extra $4. Fried rice was good with smoky toasted flavor; would have been better if they added meat in the fried rice. The pho broth was pretty standard. It doesn't have any distinct noticeable difference from other phoa I've had. They give good amount of meat and noodles. The bowl was pretty big so pricewise it's reasonable but flavor needs to catch up. Spacious dining room. Not too long of a wait for the food.
The pho here was really good and close to all of the casinos so you don't have to travel far. The service was A++++ and I would come back for how kind and attentive they were. The broth was good I was just missing the spice. I wish their chilli oil was spicier. Especially after a really long night of gambling and drinking. Pho is fire. And next time I'll try other items.
Super friendly staff, they were attentive and nice. The restaurant is clean, food was great, really good pho broth. Love that it was 3 mins away from our hotel GSR as well.
I walked in and it smells just like my mother-in-law's house! My MIL is Vietnamese and she cooks amazing food and this restaurant smells exactly like her kitchen, her home. I heard great things about this place, and actually a good friend of ours happens to know the owner, so finally we went here to confirm people's positive experience. We ordered the egg roll and salt and pepper chicken for appetizers. Their eggroll was so delicious. It was crispy, had loads of wood ear fungus (my favorite), vermicelli noodles and so much more! Their salt and pepper chicken was so bomb because the chicken was meaty, juicy, and breading was on point. I ordered the rare steak pho and you can tell they cooked their broth to perfection. It reminded of how I cook my pho actually and how my MIL cooks her. It really tastes like they didn't take the shortcut by using phở powder. I really enjoyed their pho and will have to try more when we come back here. My husband ordered his favorite dish bún bò hue, and had me try his and tasted very good too. The only thing he commented on his was that they overcooked the noodles for it was too soft. My MIL order chicken phở and she loved it. Overall SF Kitchen gave us an authentic feel. Their service was very welcoming and quick. We also loved how the setting felt, simple and "homey". So if you haven't tried this place and you're reading this, GO!
Great service and amazingly delicious food. Everything I have tried here has been amazing. I am eating my way through the entire menu. Lol! A great place to dine in or takeout. You can't go wrong with this locally owned restaurant. The staff is very friendly and always accommodating. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
First time checking out SF Kitchen here in Reno just off of the freeway at Mill St and Kietzke. They're said to serve both Chinese and Vietnamese cuisine. Let's check it out! Of course I had to try the Pho! I'm a sucker for a good Pho. So first--the restaurant was just what you would expect. A spacious dining area, wooden tables and chairs. Nothing too fancy. A chill ambiance, not too much for decor, but I didn't come there to stare at walls, I came to grub! Lol My buddy Yasir and I would grab seat in the back and chat and we'd both order a combination bowl with Flank and Rare steak. Verdict? Fast and friendly service, a steaming hot bowl of Pho with a delicious broth. I wish for more protein in this bowl please! Places like this always seem to serve you more noodles than meats, but I digress. The broth was killer and that order if spring rolls we got with that favorful pork and it's marinade... Mmm! Overall a traditional Vietnamese dining experience. How does it rank against places like Pho 999 or even an SK Noodle? There could be some friendly competition there, but all in all, I love how some restaurants strive to make slight deviations and distinctions in their dishes that set them apart. SF Kitchen does it. I'll come back and try one of their entree with the Mrs and give you a other review should you be on the fence. The Pho alone I think should make you curious. It's all about the broth! And service of course.
probably the best vietnamese restaurant here in reno the canh chua, sweet and sour cat fish soup was my favorite and not many places make this dish super delicious and recommended bun bo hue was good the summer rolls, pork was good in fish sauce, usually its dipped in peanut sauce, but the fish sauce was a nice alternative will definitely be back to try other dishes! thank you!
Came to Reno for the weekend and were craving pho. After seeing the great reviews, we decided to give this place a try--and we're so glad we did! We ordered the rare beef & flank pho, the flank steak & oxtail pho, and my mom had the sweet & sour pork with pork fried rice, pot stickers, and egg flower soup. Everything was delicious--the pho broth was rich and flavorful, and the Chinese dishes were just as tasty. They easily accommodated our party of 10, the service was fast, and the atmosphere was family-friendly. We've found our new favorite spot in Reno and will definitely be back!
A Reno Gem: If you haven't been to SF Kitchen yet, you are seriously missing out. This place is an absolute standout in Reno's food scene. I LOVE IT HERE! The Food The food here is beyond delicious--every dish we tried was bursting with fresh, authentic flavor. The Pho is absolutely amazing and I've tried so many spots in town, and I can confidently say this is the best Pho in Reno I've had. The broth is rich, aromatic, and has that perfect depth of flavor that you only get from a kitchen that truly knows what they're doing. The Service & Staff It's not just about the food, though. The people who work here are wonderful. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with genuine warmth. Fiona is an absolute gem . The service is fast, attentive, and the staff really goes above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience. You can tell the team here actually cares about their customers. A Note on Large Parties For transparency: they do charge a set tip for large parties. Honestly, this is a completely normal practice at almost any reputable restaurant to ensure the servers are fairly compensated for the extra work that goes into managing a big group. To be frank, leaving a bad review specifically because of a standard large-party gratuity says a lot more about the person leaving the review than it does about the business. This is also a small family owned business serving FRESH authentic food. Which means sometimes the food might take longer to get to you on busy days, say like Christmas or New Years when they are slammed packed BUT it's always worth the wait! I've been coming here for years and years and years. The owners care deeply about each and every one of their customers and employees. They make you feel like family and it feels like home You can't find that much anywhere anymore. Bottom line: If you want incredible food, top-tier service, and the best bowl of Pho in the city, go to SF Kitchen. You won't regret it!
This is our GO TO PHO-SPOT when we stay at GSR. It's like a 4 minute drive, super fast and hella good flavor. They got Chinese entrees too, if you have picky kids that don't eat soup. HEADS UP! The liquor store next door sells hella expired stuff, be careful. Alotta different "Rhino pills" too, if you're into that.
Solid place for Viet foodfare. Good pho, Vermicilli and bbq pork/beef. Convenient location (for me anyway). Clean establishment and food came out fast. Not perfect 5 stars as while good it is also not exceptional. The pricing is on the slightly high side.
Definitely the spot to go for lunch and pho! They also offer Chinese dishes, but we think they have one of the best phos in town. Very reasonably priced for the portions as well. I loved their vegan pho (both is light but very flavorful) and my husband loved their ox tail pho. The place is casual and unassuming but very clean. Service is good and fast. Definitely recommend this place for a quick hearty delicious lunch. read more

A nice family owned business. The food was delicious and the service was great! Definitely did a double back and ordered order things besides the pho. read more
I wanted to give this place 5 stars, But the food wasn't 5 stars, 4 is perfect for this place. Don't get me wrong, try this place it's good! But it's just missing that ompft in taste. I would get the bun bo hue and salt and pepper calamari again if I ever crave it, but I'll probably want to try other items next time. Bun bo hue came with 2 knuckles! Woo boo!! Vietnamese iced coffee is bold with that mocha taste. But I'll pass on the walnut shrimp. We LOVE walnut shrimp or mayo shrimp but it was so bland at this place . For the first time ever, we barely touched this dish. I didn't think you can go wrong with the mayo sauce but dang, no flavor what so ever. Also, I recommend asking for their chili oil, it's good here. There's parking space available at the front, The place is clean and I seen people dining in after SIP COVID-19. The women working there was very friendly! Enjoy! read more

My sister and I were in the area and were really craving pho. We ordered potstickers as an appetizer and they were so delicious. My sister ordered the oxtail pho and I ordered the rare steak and flank. We thought it was absolutely divine. The thai tea was also very good. The service was awesome. The servers were very attentive to our needs which was great. The decor was really nice. read more

It's a cute and clean restaurant. I wanted to try so many things on the menu but opted to try the bun bo hue. The wait took a little longer than what I'm used to but it wasn't too bad. My soup came out piping hot. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the broth was fragrant from the lemongrass. The only thing I was sad about was that the menu stated that the bun bo hue came with pork hock but there was none to be found. I asked the waitress about it and she said the chef doesn't use it anymore because people don't eat it. I love the pork hock. Although disappointed, the waitress was very sweet and apologetic. I can't wait to try more of their menu items in the future. I have my eyes set on the caramelized catfish and crispy wonton noodle soup for next time read more

They accommodated and we enjoyed Chinese food and Vietnamese menu items. Place was clean, nice and near our Hotel at GSR. read more
SF kitchen has some of the best egg rolls I've ever eaten anywhere. They are so light and crispy, perfectly cooked, not overly greasy. I typically avoid meat egg rolls, but here I don't, and they are an obligatory part of my order whenever we come here. This place also makes a delicious chow mein and fried rice that reminds me of one of my favorite restaurants in LA. This is comfort food for me. My husband really enjoys the pho ga here (chicken soup) and we also enjoy the orange chicken. The chicken is always super crispy and filled with huge chunks of white meat but not overly dried out from cooking. The orange sauce has a little bit of spice to it but it isn't too spicy to enjoy. We always end up with the same server here whenever we come in, and she is so sweet. She always gets our order right even though she doesn't write it down which is impressive. She can get pretty busy in the dining area but she never seems overwhelmed and she is always there if we need something. We love this place. read more

Good food, quick service for lunch! Had the sesame chicken lunch special for the kids, they love anything crispy and sweet, I had to try a couple as well, and they had a nice flavor and were not too saucy and held their crispness. Decent fried rice too. I had the pho combination, missed the tripe and tendon (they don't have that available for any pho options). But overall, it was good. They even went to the extra effort of taking the roots off the bean sprouts Would like to try more of the Chinese dishes...next time! read more

Just OK in my opinion. Ended up ordering Phó and maybe we shouldn't have because the Chinese food is probably better. My mom's chow mein dish tasted pretty good and her shrimp were different than the shrimp in my dish. Food aside, when we walked in they said to sit wherever we wanted so we did. Then we waited and waited for some menus, I got up to grab three of them by the front door. After a few minutes of trying to decide between Vietnamese or Chinese, we made our decisions. The waitress gave my dad a sample of the beef broth and we ordered some shrimp spring rolls. My parents have never eaten Phó nor do they know what rice noodles are or why they even exist but my dad said yes to the oxtail Phó. Does Phó even have an accent mark?! Anyhoo, unless I'm craving kung pao or Mongolian anything, I'll be back to try those dishes. For now, it was out of my way and I've had better. I will say that one tiny lady who works there was so super friendly; however, our waitress seemed kinda grumpy or annoyed with us by the end. I wasn't a fan of the area of town or the building itself but that's okay. I don't know, it just wasn't as great as I had hoped. read more

I don't know why it's taken me so long to try this place. It's been saved on my Reno list but I just haven't trekked up passed the airport (living in South Reno). We frequent La Mint, so I invited my lunch friends to try this place with me. We were anticipating a larger party so I called to see if they take reservations... They do NOT. That's okay. It shares a lot with Port of Subs and a convenient store so there's plenty of parking. The staff are all so genuinely nice from the moment you walk in, during your entire meal, and up until you leave. Our server kindly let us know that there's only one cook and there was a party of 14 behind us, so she wasn't rushing us, but if we were ready to order, she'd take ours first, otherwise we'll be waiting a while for our food. Our orders were taken and seemed like within 10-15 minutes, all of our food was out! Everrrrryyyyone enjoyed their meals. I got the Bun Bo Hue because my new quest is to find the best BBH in Reno. This place serves it with pig's blood, meatballs, ham, and beef! Yum! The broth was rich and delicious. They used the correct noodles (round rice noodles, NOT pho noodles like how Pho Noodle/Donut Bistro did) which really brings out the greatness of the entire bowl IMO. My friends said the ingredients in their dishes tasted very fresh (especially all the shrimp dishes!) I tried the summer rolls and they were some of the best I've had around here! We will definitely be back to try more items on the menu, but for now, we are very happy with our entire experience here! We'll definitely be putting SF Kitchen on our regular lunch rotation. I'm excited to try the Oxtail Pho next time!!! Maybe tomorrow... is that too soon? I didn't think so either :) To be continued! read more

A surprisingly good place for a mix of Vietnamese and Chinese food. I was going to order Pho, but saw the wor won ton with extra egg noodles. Some legit fried won ton in soup and good mix of char siu (pretty good for Reno) and lots of other ingredients. We also had the spring rolls and shrimp with lobster sauce. All pretty good. Service was super nice. read more

It was my first time eating at this restaurant and I am beyond happy with my food choices. The restaurant was also very clean and the staff was very attentive. I got the single one item dinner special and the portions were more than generous. I received a small egg drop soup, egg roll, and wonton. Along with my main entrée of sesame seed chicken with rice. We also ordered some Phở. The food was so delicious, if you like authentic Vietnamese and Chinese food give this place a try. Will return again soon. read more

Finally good Pho in Reno. I was in the area and visited this little gem Asian restaurant. Their menu has a mix of Chinese and Vietnamese. A lot of Pho choices, but I gravitated to the oxtail Pho. Yummy sweet broth, seasoned perfectly, oxtail meat soft and falling off the bone. I really wish I could give ia five star rating. Food was excellent. However I waited so long for the pho to arrive, I immediately started eating and mixing the ingredients before I could snap the perfect picture. After I was done it was another long 15 min before I got my check. They could use getting their sign fixed because the restaurant is not visible from the street with lightbulbs missing. 4th visit to this place. Great service today. Yummy yum yum oxtail soup. Love this place. read more
I can't believe I hadn't been to this place until now! It's my new favorite Pho place and I can't wait to go again and again and again! We went on a slower night so the waitress was able to recommend us so many different meals and answer all of our questions. I wanted to stay simple and got their steak, flank and meatball pho. The broth itself was so rich and meaty and full of flavors I was so impressed by it. And the noodles to meat portion was perfect! My friend had gotten their special dish - eggplant with minced pork. And when I say it took me back to my childhood, it took me alllll the way back. I think they used a mixture of oyster, hoisin and fish sauce for the perfect sweet, salty and tart taste. The meal was hot, but you best believe we experienced a little tongue burns and enjoyed every single moment. The eggplants were cooked perfectly and not mushy how some places make them. And once you take a bit of the eggplants and get some rice...perfection. If you like eggplants get this dish!!! The only thing I regret from this meal was that I didn't order my own eggplant dish! read more

This oxtail pho though!!! 10/10 The food came out piping hot and stayed hot all the way until the end. Oxtail meat was fall off the bone tender never have I ever had so much oxtail leftover at the end of my bowl. Really great quality and quantity. Broth was rich and clean. Staff was super friendly too. My bf got the chicken pho and that was really good as well. Fried onions are a nice touch! Will definitely come back to this place next time I'm in Reno! read more

My friends and I came here on a Tuesday during lunch and we walked into a packed restaurant! We were near the GSR and wanted some Vietnamese food so we checked out Yelp and found this place. We were kindly greeted by the staff and was seated pretty quickly. We received menus and that's when the wait began. It took some time for us to put our order in. I ordered the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup (Bun Bo Hue) which helped after a night of having adult beverages. My bowl came out hot in temperature but I wouldn't have liked it a little spicier. This was a great bowl of noodles for the area and I would definitely come back here when I am in the area. I would try to come when it's not during the lunch rush especially when I was hungry! read more

Nice sit down Chinese restaurant. Food is tasty with healthy portions. Their soups are really good. I enjoy their egg drop soup. The orange chicken and their Szechuan chicken are my go to dinners. Go there between 11am-3pm M-F to hit up their lunch special. Also the Thai iced tea is a nice drink to cool down the spiciness of the foods(you get to choose your spice level, don't worry). Their fried wonton appetizer is delicious and of a sharing size. One of the best Chinese places in Reno area. read more
Went to SF Kitchen on my lunch break from work today, as they are only 6 min from my office. I was hoping to have a quick lunch and figured Chinese food would be a pretty good bet. Arrived at the restaurant around noon and was surprised to see only 2 tables occupied. We were promptly seated and our order take within the first 5 min of being in the restaurant. We ordered potstickers, vegetable chow mein, and a lunch special with mongolian beef and steamed rice. While the food and service was great the one big complaint I had was it took almost 30 min to get our potstickers. At lunchtime 30 min for any item is too much, we would have happily not ordered them had the server said that they have a long lead time. On to the food: I want to start with everything was hot and you could tell made to order. The hot and sour soup that came with the lunch special was bland and a little thicker than we are used to, we didn't like it but it was nice to have a couple bites before out appetizer. The potstickers were FANTASTIC they were very large and doughy, a little light of the filling, but great flavor and a awesome dipping sauce to go with them. The chow mein was good, not the best I have ever had, but a very solid dish. It was a good size portion, and it was fresh so the noodles weren't gummy at all, it have good flavor and I didn't have any complaints. The mongolian beef lunch special, was very good. The meat was tender, the sauce spicy and a perfect size to eat it all and not have to worry about leftovers. For $10 it was a very good price. All in all a good lunch place, I will be back. I won't order the potstickers for lunch unless I place the order ahead of time, but all the food was good and everything else came out very quickly. I'd recommend giving them a shot. read more
Why in the world have we not been here or known about this little gem? 1st time here, was going to head to 999 Pho per recommendation from my cousin, but I read the reviews and the reviews were not only very inconsistent but the reviews said service was horrible there. So we decided to try this place out and there were no regrets whatsoever! Place is very clean! Service very attentive! Food was all great! The BBH didn't look very flavorful when it came out, but boy are looks deceiving! It was sooooo full of flavor! The beef combo pho was also very flavorful, perfectly seasoned, only needed to add chili oil if you like spicy. The hot sizzling wok was also very delicious! Portions were pretty big as we had ordered XL. This is our new to go spot whenever we are back in town. read more

Do they serve FRIED Imperial rolls? The difference between Imperial rolls and egg rolls is the wrapper. Imperial rolls are wrapped in rice flour wrappers. Egg rolls (Chinese style) are wrapped in wheat flour wrappers. Both are deep fried.
spring rolls do not have to be deep fried. As far as the wrappers go you are correct. and yes they serve both.
