Decent spot for pho in inner irving area Bun rieu - 3/5, not too much stuff going on and lowkey seems like it was out of the box, but it tastes solid. Couple shrimps, slices of deli pork, tofu and a bit of tomato. Pho - 3/5, decent broth and amount of toppings. If you're a slightly bigger eater, it might not be enough.

#1 Pho Xe Lua ($18.95)
Katy Z.

Nothing like a bowl of pho on a cold day. I've been here plenty of times before with my family, but since moving I haven't had a lot of opportunities to come here. So when my friend asked to meet up for a bowl of pho halfway between our locations, I knew the exact place. We stopped by shortly after 12pm on a friday. It was pretty hard to find parking that was free... and there are metered spots but also a little hard to get. We opted to park by Golden Gate Park that had free 3-4 hour street parking. We were pretty lucky when we got seated because we took one of the last two tables. My friend ordered the #10 Bun Rieu ($17.95) and #1 Pho Xe Lua ($18.95). The bowls came out quick and steaming hot. One of the best places for pho and honestly anything on their menu. The bowls were loaded, the service was welcoming and quick and there were plenty of options to choose from. You know what they say about pho, if you don't end up drinking a ton of water afterwards it was a good bowl of pho. So, stop by for a bowl and you won't regret it!

We came for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. The staff were friendly and did a great job of accommodating many parties of various sizes. Everything felt clean and spacious. We ordered the Pho Xe Lua, Goi Cuon (shrimp rolls), and Bo Nuong Xa (satay beef). The flavor of all of the different kinds of beef was great and the portions were pretty generous. Overall a great choice for a lunch in the Sunset, especially on a cooler day.

Food was pretty good but not the best pho I've had. Not much else to say. Service was excellent and it's nice place to have dinner

9. BÚN BÒ HUẾ - 顺化牛肉粉
Isabelle V.

The owners are a really sweet Vietnamese couple who, on a very busy Friday evening in Inner Sunset, accommodated my last minute reservation for 12 people -- And were so kind and gracious! Would probably give this 3.5 if I could -- I haven't been back here since discovering Saigon BBQ noodle house, but I did quite enjoy their bún bò huế here for awhile. It has huyết, chả, and all the necessary toppings. Also was nicely spiced, though maybe heavier on the mắm than other BBH I've had -- so expect a more fishy umami. It is also a bit pricier (~$21 per bowl rather than $15) than Saigon BBQ, which made me less able to go, but I did enjoy it quite a lot!

Great service and good pho! Came here with a large group on a Sunday night and it was pretty busy--luckily they could sit us. They handled crowds well and were funny! Most of us got pho, and some shared some rolls. Pho broth was good and rich. Lots of meat and vegetables. Reasonable prices and large portions. Will be back.

I haven't been to Yummy Yummy since 2010, but it was excellent then and it's excellent now. They don't do "off the menu special chicken wings" any more, but the ones in fish sauce with grilled onions are possibly quite similar. Had the Five Spice Chicken as an entree, the Shrimp in Coconut Sauce, and the crispy egg noodles with beef and veggies. And plentiful. Most entrees are at least $22, but the quantity is big. I know from past experience that the crab dishes are great. I don't know why they were shut down for a while a few years back, but I'm glad they're back. Servers were friendly and helpful. Place was packed on a Sunday night.

I really enjoyed the pho - the broth was very flavorful! The dish came out SO hot, which is always a good sign. The imperial rolls were really good here too. The portions were very big! I loved the service - the gentlemen that was working was such a funny, kind guy. I highly recommend trying it out!

Crab!
Wan-Yu L.

We were craving crab one day and remembered that Yummy Yummy had a few crab options on their menu. Decided to go and try it out. OMG. It was so delicious. We got the house special salt and pepper flavor (recommended by the staff). There was an option to include noodles as well, so of course we got noodles. The crab was huge and very meaty. A lot of the shells were pre-cracked to make it easier for us to eat. The sauce/flavoring complemented the crab meat and the noodles so so well. My friend and I sat in silence for 20 minutes just to focus on devouring the whole dish. The staff were friendly and cracked jokes with us about how much we were enjoying the crab. I can't wait to go back again!

I usually stop into Yummy Yummy to get a Vietnamese Ice Coffee when I am in the area either dining next door at San Tung or getting takeout from there. LOL. I have dined in a couple of times when ST was closed unexpectedly like once when they had a two week vacation. Anyways, I've enjoyed the... *PHO DAC BIET: Special combo beef noodle soup (4/5). Filled with good portions of meat. *CANH GA NUOC MAM: Deep fried chicken wings with fish sauce lemon grass and onions (4/5). These wings are not ST, but are pretty tasty in their own right. Crunchy, flavorful, umami. It's a must try! The owner and servers are all friendly. They have a extended menu. Next time I will try one of their crab dishes, fresh spring rolls, eggrolls, and/or hot & sour Catfish soup.

i came here with my family, so it was a large party, and the staff were really kind and accommodating. they helped with my mom's wheelchair, a booster seat for a toddler, and even adjusted dishes to our preferences, which made the experience feel really thoughtful. i ordered the bun bo hue and asked for it on the mild side. they adjusted it for me, which i appreciated, but just a heads up it's still on the spicier side if your tolerance is low like mine. my sister had the bun rieu, and between the two of us we felt like both noodle soups weren't as good compared to other places. i would recommend the pho instead since my mom's #1 pho was delicious and something i'd get next time. the portions are generous, and everything came out flavorful overall. i also noticed a lot of people ordering the wraps for spring rolls, so i wish i had tried those as well. i did get the three color drink, che ba mau, but it didn't taste that fresh to me. the ambiance is nothing special, but in a cozy way. they had a football game playing in the background, which made it feel casual and comfortable. overall, it was a good dining experience with welcoming staff, tasty pho, and big portions.

We celebrated our mom's birthday here with a party of 21. They don't take reservations, but we called a few days ahead and made arrangements. They pushed tables together to make 2 long tables for us. It was a busy Saturday evening, and the place was packed, but the service was still excellent. The owner, Wilson, ran the place with efficiency and humor. They allowed us to bring our own cake, and even provided us with plates. Even though we didn't order ahead of time, our food came out quickly. We ordered family style and picked many dishes to share. Every dish was delicious and flavorful. Most (if not all) of the dishes came with a dipping sauce that you can add as much or little as you like. Highlights of what we ordered: + Imperial rolls (6) - crispy and delicious. They are about 1/2 the size of Chinese egg rolls + Spring rolls (6) - fresh with plump shrimps + Fried chicken wings - crispy and nicely seasoned, juicy + Cabbage slaw with mint, shrimps, nuts, and shrimp chips - very refreshing - highly recommend as a starter + Chow fun (wet) - they ran out of wide rice noodles, so we got egg noodles. This is topped with crispy bok choy and shrimp in a sauce. Very yummy + Combo fried noodles - you choose your noodle, so we got rice noodles. One of my favorite dishes of the evening. The combo includes long shreds of chicken, cha lua (I think), egg, and onions. + Fried rice with egg on top - another favorite. The rice was a little reddish, and I think it's tomato. Whatever it was, it gave the dish a fantastic flavor + Five spice chicken - good flavor. Chicken was slightly on the dry side + BBQ pork - pork was so tender and seasoning was slightly sweet. Another favorite + House special crab - very good with lots of garlic and spices + Clams - fresh and lots of garlic and spices + Pepper steak cubes - tender beef, well seasoned, with peppers and onions + String beans with garlic - cooked perfectly with the perfect snap with each bite The food was delicious and the staff was so efficient and friendly, especially Wilson. He chatted with us like friends, cracked jokes, and made us feel special.

I advise coming before they open as my friend and I came 15 minutes before they opened on a random Wednesday and there were already 5 others ahead of us. If you miss the first seating, you'll have to wait 45 min until someone finishes and leaves. We decided to share one cold soba with shrimp tempura and veggies in addition to the spicy dipping broth. It was delicious!! If you aren't a big eater, one order is definitely enough to share. The soba portion is quite generous. The tempura is made-to-order and really crunchy. I'm excited to come back and try their scallop kakiage. The spicy broth was really good with a hint of yuzu so if you like spicy food, I'd recommend adding that as a side item. It's a "cozy" restaurant so you might be sharing a table with another party. I'd come solo or even at most with one other person to have the best opportunity to sit each other.

Back in December 2018, I passed by and caught a whiff of something pleasant. There was a remarkably…read morelong line, but I decided to get in it thinking I could order quick, chow down, and be on my way. Alas! it was not to be, as I had to meet up with my group, and the line only moved in smidges. The intervening years visiting SF didn't provide me with any opportune moments to stop by. That is, until one Saturday evening August 2026 while I was walking around and by chance happened upon the same lovely scent. Although it was a few minutes before 11pm, the line to get in was closed off. Tomorrow was my last night in SF, so I made it my primary objective to dine here. Well, Sunday I was at the Chase Center till about 9:20pm where the Muni line was packed and going nowhere fast. In the spur of the moment, I ran all the way from Chase Center to Lower Nob Hill, a 2.3-mile journey, yielding to red lights and Pokémon fans. Exhausted, it was a couple minutes past 10pm when I arrived. Lo and behold, the line had not closed yet. Ordered their Signature Toripaitan ramen and was very pleased that it was ready in about two minutes. I'm not afraid to admit I literally vacuumed the contents of that bowl. Sure I was sweaty and famished, but the combination of chashu, menma, burdock root, ajitama egg, chicken broth, and every other element checked all my proverbial boxes. The waitstaff who took my order was likely aghast that I ate so violently, though she was professional and responded energetically when I showered her with thanks and praise for the meal. I also ordered a mazemen to-go for the next day's lunch, and that was a real treat. Recently, I learned that there is a location in Culver City. Heck, why wait another 8 years?

The enoki mushrooms were great, with a spicy, savory flavor and a really crispy texture. They soak up quite a bit of oil, as expected, but that also helps them absorb all the flavor. The broth was incredibly rich, almost foamy and frothy. The noodles were interesting too, super chewy with a really satisfying bite. I also liked the king oyster mushrooms. I kept thinking I was about to bite into bamboo shoots, but the flavor and texture was a pleasant surprise. The crispy root vegetable on top was a nice addition as well, adding a different texture to round everything out.

Granted, we came in around 9 PM, about an hour before closing, so we understood that the kitchen was getting toward the end of the night. We ordered a few dishes to share and there were actually some highlights. The scallops: These were great! Easily one of the better dishes we ordered. The karaage chicken: The chicken itself had great flavor, but the creamy sauce on top was extremely rich and ended up overpowering the chicken. I think with less sauce, this could have been a really good dish. Now, the ramen: This is where I was genuinely left speechless. I don't think I've ever had ramen with absolutely no umami. Like, none. It was one of the strangest things I've ever tasted. I was biting into something, there were textures in my mouth, it smelled great... but that was it. No depth. No richness. No umami. The broth, meat, and even the noodles somehow had almost no flavor. The only thing that really came through was the greasy chili oil that lingered on your tongue afterward. After a couple of bites, we looked at each other and decided to leave. At that point, most of the food was still sitting on the table practically untouched. Maybe we caught the kitchen on an off night, especially coming in later in the evening. The scallops showed us that there's definitely potential here, but unfortunately, the ramen was such a miss that it overshadowed the rest of the meal for us.
