Food: It's my go-to pho place! Not only it's close to my place, it's the best tasting broth ever! They only have pho though nothing else! No rolls, rice plates etc. not even diet sodas but good enough for me! It's 5/5 for the flavor and legit pho taste! Service: it's a small spot so, staff will see you if you need anything. Again, it's good enough for me. Score is 4/5. Ambiance: it's a hole in a wall kinda spot so, it's cool enough for me. It's a 4/5.

Pho Tai will always be my go-to! Simple and filling for breakfast after a party day. The small bowl is perfect for someone who only eats a little. Their beef is super tender and soft. This place is usually super busy, but wait time is usually super fast,

One of the best pho restaurants in San Jose. I've gone here many times, but haven't stopped by for a while. Revisited recently a few days ago and can confirm... I missed eating pho here! I wasn't feeling so great that day and the bowl of pho warmed my soul. What we ordered: #1. Pho Dat Biet - includes rare steak, well done brisket, flank, tendon, fat brisket, and well done flank. If you don't know what to order, you'll never go wrong with the dat biet. You get a little bit of everything to try. Pho Papa has truly nailed down their broth. It is a clean broth enriched with SOOO much flavor. The meat is nice and tender. They always put a TON of green onions on top, which I appreciate. If you like a thicker noodle, make sure to ask for banh tuoi. #2. Dat Biet Suon Bo Papa - this is their beef rib special. If you want extra protein, add this to your order. The meat is basically fall off the bone. Very tender and is a great addition if you're looking for more. Tips: - Order hanh dam (white onion with vinegar) to eat with each bite. TRUST. It will elevate your pho! - If you're still looking to add more protein, you can order a side of Bo Vien (meatballs). I actually really like their bo vein here and would recommend (not pictured) :) Once you eat Pho here, it'll be hard to eat Pho at other places in San Jose. So good! Give it a try!

One of my favorite pho places in the area. Location: There is plenty of free parking near the restaurant as it's in a plaza. However, the restaurant itself is pretty small. All the tables are sat pretty close together and is not really suited for big parties. Food: Their food size and portions are good for the price. I especially like the short rib you can get on the side. The broth that comes in the short rib is the best but honestly all their pho broths are pretty good. I also like how they have fat noodles as an option. Always a plus when a pho spot offers far noodles. Service: Sometimes, depending on the time and day you go, you might have to wait to be seated. But they usually take your order right away and the food comes out pretty fast. Overall, I really do enjoy eating here .

One of my favorite pho place! I love that I can taste the beef flavor of the meat, you know they use good quality of meat. The place opens at 8am which is really an advantage for parents like me that after dropping off kids from school, I can get pho to start the day. They have different y Types of pho, coffee and fresh juices. Service is quick, place is decent its a fast pace reataurant and can get packed with customers quickly. You can choose where you want to seat, if you want outside or inside. So many patrona coming here. Highly recommend!

I liked the bright ambiance and big windows featured here, creating a nice atmosphere. My friend said this was her favorite pho place in the Bay and I would say it's definitely up there! The food was great and I didn't taste MSG in the same way I do other places. I had a great experience here and enjoyed my meal and the service. I would 100% go again! Pho Dac Biet 4.5/5 (Pictured) Great quality meat with a generous amount, and the broth was classic and delicious. I split the Large with my friend and it was the perfect amount for both of us. They provided sauces that added flavor when needed which also satisfied my spicy cravings.
