My wife and I are regulars at this restaurant and it is one of our go-to Pho places. All beef Pho, Chicken Pho, all good. Same with the rice plates. We also don't experience the side effects of MSG. when we eat here. So they either don't use it or use it sparingly, all without affecting flavor.

This restaurant is in a tiny strip mall close to Mercado, between 7-11 & Bogarts Bar. So random! Driving past it on my way to Mercado, always wondered if it was any good. Well, it was! I am simple & just got Pho Tai. The broth was very flavorful and the steak was fresh. I got a small at $16 or so and it was the perfect amount. Also got spring rolls. They were ok. Definitely will be back when I feel like a bowl of Pho for lunch. Only down side is that the parking lot is small.

Best pho place in north Sunnyvale! Family owned, quick service and friendly staff. Prices are reasonable, lunch specials. I usually get their pho tai chin nam, the broth is good and portion size is appropriate. Other favorite dishes are bun thit Nuong (grilled pork and cold noodles) and the Bo kho (beef stew). Their rice plates are pretty good too. When my mom doesn't want to cook, we'll order from here. My parents are pretty picky with Vietnamese food, so you know it's authentic. Their decor may be a bit outdated, but the place is clean.

Friggin love their salty lemon soda!!! Its so delicious and it's my favorite thing to get here. My partner is not a fan of salty drinks so he got the lemon soda instead and loved it. He also got the beef stew with noodles and wish he got the bread instead. I didnt like the stew much, it had a very strong cinnamon taste and thats not what i personally like in a stew. But one thing's for sure is that salty lemon soda is a 10/10

Pho nam is a small hole in the wall right next to AMC Mercado. The cashier lets you pay separately for splitting up credit cards so its nice. The pho is pretty standard san jose Pho but the waiters are nicer and more accommodating. Parking is limited in front but if you park on the side theres plenty of parking. Would always recommend #1 large and their grilled pork vermicelli is pretty good too!

It's been a while since we've come here for lunch. The place is still the same with old attentive service, delicious pho and great price. The pho broth is always flavorful and plentiful with meats and noodles. The prices have gone up but still less expensive than many restaurants around. For lunch with time is the essence, the food delivered quite quickly. I love this place and only come here if I need a hot bowl of pho. For 2 people is less than $30 including tax. Can't beat the price anywhere. It may not be as fancy and romantic for dates, but the food will make your date happy LOL.
