3.5 stars, but I'm feeling genny today. In all fairness, the House Combination Beef Pho was just what I needed while I was suffering from my....third ()....cold of the season. It came loaded with soft cuts of brisket, tripe, tendon, and beef balls, but I was mostly focused on the flavorful broth, which was what my poor, brutalized throat really needed. The Rice Vermicelli Bowl with Grilled Lemongrass Beef Rolls was a solid pick if you're feeling more dry carbs than wet carbs, though I found it to be a bit bland and lackluster. But like I said, I was mostly here for broth. Space is giant, and you could arrive with the most Catholic of Viet in-laws and still have enough space to fit everyone.

Bai Bac Beach (Mocktail), we spike it with vodka
Ron M.

I'll be honest, I'm not familiar with Vietnamese food, so any comparison is unfair. This is just my experience. My wife and I came in on a frigid Sunday night and sat at the bar. We tried their version of a coffee martini and asked make the Bai Bac Beach mocktail as a cocktail with vodka. Both drinks were not bad. The bartender/waiter is very nice and friendly. We ordered Fried pork spring rolls, sweet potato fritters with shrimp, thin vermicelli with grilled beef rolls and red rice grill beef short ribs with red rice. The good: both beef dishes were delicious. We didn't really like the red rice, it was similar to brown rice buy with less flavor. The OK (not bad): the pork spring rolls were a little greasy and I didn't really like the flavor. The sweet potato fritters were OK, but it tasted like regular potatos, not sweet potatos. So, will I return, probably not. I'll need to try other vietnamese food locations to properly compare.

The service was lovely. The staff was attentive and kind. We used to come here often with the previous owners so with the change of hands, the whole experience is entirely different. Everything looked the same, the decor including the bar area was familiar. The menu, however, was pared down but they had the usual suspects so that's what we went with. The cha giò was excellent! Super crunchy and FULL of meat! I could eat a million of those! The whole fried flounder, though, did not hit the spot. It was fried well but it wasn't as fresh as I like and had a fishy flavor. The accompanying sauce wasn't what we expected. Typically when we order pan-fried flounder, we expect their ginger sauce to also contain scallions and cilantro. This was ginger sauce was just ginger and fish sauce and it was on the sweet side. It was ok but not what we hoped for.

I haven't been here since the previous Vietnamese restaurant, and although I still miss the old place, this restaurant is solid. Off the bat, you can tell the interior is cleaner and updated, and there's even a Happy Hour menu offered (including weekends!). Food is average but satisfying, and a bit pricey but expected for the area. The menu is not as large as other Vietnamese restaurants, but it has the most popular items you could ask for (pho, bun bowls, rice dishes etc.). I ordered the Bun Bo Hue and thought the flavor was mild and could've been richer. The banh mi was nicely filled, and we enjoyed the banh xeo. Overall a decent Viet spot.

Very upscale place for a pho spot. However, I didn't see any Vietnamese people here nor Asian customers beside our party. Service was very good and attentive. The fried calamari was really good. Super crispy and fresh. We had the summer rolls and spring rolls as well. The spring roll was pretty good and full of meat. The summer roll was not nearly as good however and I usually like the summer rolls over the spring rolls. We also had the fried marketplace fish which was flounder that day. You can choose between two sauces. The waitress recommended the ginger sauce, but that sauce was very light and was lacking something. Otherwise the fish was delicious. We tried the Bon Bo Hue soup. It was okay it did not seem as flavorful as other places I am used to in Maryland. The deserts here seemed pretty good especially the pan dan pana catta. Overall the food was pretty good; however, usually I would come for the soup and summer rolls which was just okay.

Summer roll and sugarcane juice
Danielle G.

Great service and yummy food. My favorite summer rolls are served here, ask for the peanut sauce with it, trust me. Larger restaurant for the area, with a nice bar so definitely can accommodate larger parties if need.

Shrimp summer rolls
Gianna S.

This is a great pho spot on the border of Jersey City and Hoboken. It is very large inside so reservations/seating is not a concern. Service was attentive and quick - appetizers came out less than 5 minutes after ordering - but also did not feel rushed so we could enjoy the meal. The pho was a little oily and could have had a a bit more flavor to the broth, but the meat and noodles were tender. The prices are a good value for the large serving sizes. Summer rolls (shrimp) - $9 Chicken pho - $16 Soda - $3

B1. VERM BOWL SPRING ROLLS & GRILL PORK

I don't usually post within the hour I get my food but I have to say the Corner Pho was a pleasant surprise from the usual take out places in Jersey City (and maybe even NYC) I ordered the meat and spring rolls and the presentation of the take out order was flawless. The attention to detail of how the food is served in a takeout container was nicer than I've seen from other places. The food was absolutely delicious as well. The vegetables were crisp and fresh. Each bite of the meat and spring rolls were great. I will absolutely be ordering take out from here again.

Bun Bo HUE BEEF NDLE SOUP
Christine H.

Came on a Sunday afternoon and place was half full. We got seated immediately and the wait staff were all super friendly. Our waters were also always full. - Bun Bo hue hit the spot with a flavorful soup and a hefty portion of meat along with the pig trotter. - Pho dac biet had tasty meaty bone broth and hefty amount of meat/tendons! - shaking beef lunch was lemongrassy and was the perfect "app" to our bowls of noodles Overall super glad to have found a good pho place in JC!

Pho HOUSE COMBO PHO
Monica L.

Great pho and also appetizers!!! The place is big so you dont feel crowded at all; ehich was good since our 2yo ended up taking a nap and we could have the stroller next to us comfortably!Decoration simple but clean (a bit more cozier would be nice, but overall super comfy) Service is attentive, pretty fast and they don't rush you to pay and leave, which I appreciate. About food, really 5/5 both rolls were tasty! Summer shrimp roll perfect and the Spring roll was the best, so crunchy with delicious fill. Pho was very generous and the broth was perfect, not too salty. Will def come back

L5. RICE GRILLED PORKCHOP COMBO
Michelle N.

Im from the west coast and I can definitely say that this place has one of best AUTHENTIC viet food in the NJ/NYC area. We had the vietnamese ice coffee, grilled pork combo (com tam suong heo), the corner pho special rice noodle soup (hu tieu), egg rolls (cha gio), and house combo beef pho and all of it was phenomenal! The restaurant was very spacious, clean, and the ambience of this restaurant is a total vibe. Vietnamese ice coffee (5/5): the vietnamese ice coffee isnt too sweet, but also comes with one huge ice cube so it doesnt water down the coffee, while still keeping the coffee nice and cold Grilled pork combo (4.5/5): the pork was grilled perfectly and you could taste the char on it from being on the grill. It comes with 2 perfectly cooked sunny side up eggs and this salty/ savory vietnamese meat. The corner pho special rice noodle soup (5/5): this was my favorite dish and very similar to how my mom makes it at home! It comes woth crispy pork bits that is still crunchy after absorbing all the soup and comes with so many different types of seafood/ meats Egg rolls (4/5): we forgot to take a picture bc we devoured them so fast but it comes with plenty of meat and a thin/ crispy outside Pho (5/5): the most AUTHENTIC pho ive tried in the NJ/NYC area. The broth is clear and so flavorful packed with so much spice and depth. Definitely my go-to viet spot from now on!

PHO CHICKEN
Lynne C.

I enjoyed my meal at The Corner Pho. Our waiter was very nice and helped give us recommendations for what to order. They also let us change seats so we would have a better view of the TV. The restaurant itself is very spacious and clean. I had the fresh rolls, which were great. The chicken pho was also good, although I would recommend asking for chili paste on the side to give it more flavor.

Good food, nice service, and a cool interior. There was even live music! The summer roll with shrimp was very tasty and the rice vermicelli bowl with pork and spring roll was really good. I enjoyed this place and I'll be back.

Got pho tai chin, cha gio, goi cuon, and rau ma and everything was 10/10. The portions are huge,…read morethe rau ma was fresh, and I usually don't finish my entire bowl of pho but there was nothing left by the time I was done! The meat was tender from start to finish and the broth was aromatic and not oily. We were a party of 10 and everyone's dishes looked amazing, especially the rice and bun dac biet dishes!! Service was also 10/10, super patient and kind with a large party. It was my grandma's birthday so everyone wished her well and was super kind. They went above and beyond to make her feel special and sung louder than us when we sang her happy birthday with cake!

Overall, my com tam (rice) special tastes decent, nothing wow. The pho lacks a flavor in broth. The meat in the spring roll had gone bad. When we bit into it, we can taste the meat is spoiled. It's gross. We have to ask for the several dish to be removed and reordered something else. Two people in our party ordered the same dish where spring rolls were served and both complained about it. The employee thought it may be undercooked and took the spring rolls to re-cook it. Again, it tastes the same. Note: Watch out for their chili oil. Omg, it's extra spicy and this is coming from a gal who can handle spice well. The che (old dessert) is good. Parking is available in the plaza and off street.

Would gladly come back to give them another chance, because i can see the potential and want to try a few more items. Now, onto the good stuff. Greeted nicely and was handed hot tea. Love that. Usually you have to ask, but not here. props for that. Viet wings were good. Theyre on the small side, if im being honest. However, theyre cooked well and flavor is killer. i love the crunch to them and theyre not too messy. Veggie pho with veggie broth. I know traditional is beef and i took a gamble here, but the broth was just incredibly bland. ive had plenty of veggie stock pho that hit the spot, but here it was just so bland. I had to spicy it up with the chilli sauce and hoison. not good. the dessert. this just lost me. i was so let down here. the sweet corn pudding had a few issues with it. it was basically rice pudding, with maybe 8 corn kernals thrown in there. im not a chef, but it seemed like the corn was not cooked with the pudding. the corn was not sweet and neither was the rice pudding itself. it truly tasted like the corn was thrown on top. Also, the coconut sauce on top was not sweet. again, it tasted like it was poured on top and didnt blend with the pudding.

Nothing really stood out in the sandwich, it was bland and the pork belly had mild flavor, overall it was a disappointment.

Love that there is a Vietnamese place in the area now! Interior is very cute and vibes are chill…read more Service is nice and food comes out promptly unless it is rush hour and very busy in the kitchen. I have been here twice so far and tried their banh mi, pho, and rice bowl. Unfortunately, although I was most excited about the banh mi, it was disappointing. I'd still make the trip to Chinatown to get a good banh mi over coming here. HOWEVER, the grilled pork rice bowl is really good - namely the grilled pork charred flavor. Highly recommend ordering it! Their Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee is also quite yummy and not too sweet. My fiance ordered the beef pho our second visit and the broth is pretty good. Very hearty and warming on a cold day. Overall I can see myself adding this spot to my local rotation when I am craving pho or a rice bowl.

For example, the peanut sauce that comes with the shrimp spring rolls is sometimes perfect, but other times it tastes sour or off, and occasionally it barely tastes like peanut butter at all. The same goes for the Thai iced tea, it can be great one day, but the next it's watery and flavorless, even after requesting extra sweetness. The banh mi sandwiches are pretty average in my opinion and feel a bit overpriced for what you get. The vermicelli bowls are probably the best thing on the menu and have been the most consistently enjoyable for me. The bo kho is also good, although it's noticeably sweeter than what I'm used to. Overall, there are some good dishes here, but the inconsistency makes it difficult for me to rate the restaurant higher.
