" This was my first time trying Phở VN, and overall, it was a decent experience but not exceptional. The pho 맛은 좋았지만 babe, a little too salty for my taste. The service was okay, though they seemed quite busy, which may have impacted their attentiveness. The atmosphere was welcoming, but I had expected more. I might come back for a second chance, but there are definitely other pho places I'd prefer as well. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was so excited to come here after reading all the great reviews, but my experience was disappointing. The chicken pho I tried was just okay, nothing special compared to other places I’ve been to. The broth lacked depth and flavor, and I found the prices quite high for what I received. Maybe I just hit them on an off day. The staff was nice, but I expected more from the food. I might not be back anytime soon unless I hear otherwise from friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been coming to Phở VN for several years, and I’m never disappointed. Their pho always hits the spot, and I often go there when I have a craving for Vietnamese food. The broth is always fresh and warm, the meat portions are generous, and the variety on the menu is fantastic! Highly recommend the spicy beef pho if you enjoy a little heat, and the staff is friendly, adding to the overall experience. The cash-only policy is a tad frustrating, but I deal with it for this tasty food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Phở VN a couple of times, and I've enjoyed the food every visit. I particularly loved their shrimp pho. The broth stands out for being light yet satisfying, and the shrimp are cooked perfectly. The ambiance is casual but clean, making it a pleasant dining experience. The only downside is the cash-only policy and sometimes late staff attentiveness, so I would rate it slightly lower in service. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is the best place for pho! My social media feeds are filled with my visits here. The combination of flavors in their broth is unlike anything else I’ve tried. The fresh sprouts, herbs, and the lime all complement the pho perfectly. I love to come here with friends and family because it’s very accommodating. They also have a very simple ordering process which makes it easy to decide what to get. My favorite dish has to be the grilled pork vermicelli. It’s comforting and helps boost my mood! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're a pho lover, you have to check out Phở VN! I was blown away by how good the pho tasted—definitely one of the best I’ve had in the Bay Area. The broth is so rich and flavorful; I didn't even need to add any extra sauces. Each time I visit, the staff are super friendly, and they make an effort to remember regulars. Just make sure to bring cash! I recommend trying their egg rolls as a side—they’re delicious too. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit Phở VN, I'm reminded of why it's considered one of the best. The pho is rich in flavor and comes with an ample amount of protein. I appreciate how they take the time to ensure everything is fresh and up to standard. Despite being a cash-only establishment, the convenience of getting quick service makes up for it. The place has a genuine family-run feel, which adds to its charm. " (*Curated Review*)
