Came here with my friend because the other pho place closed early. This place closes late so its great for those who are late night eaters! Food is good here. Service is mediocre. We each ordered pho, and my friend ordered a mango bona smoothie.

This place is known for pho but I just don't like their pho flavors but their pork spring roll and rices dishes! It is mostly empty during the weekday because there are too many competition foods around this plaza. I usually come for their pork spring roll nem nuong, it is freshly made in house. I don't like the dipping sauce that comes with it but I switch out with the regular sweet fish sauce and add lemon to it. Their rice rices with grilled pork is delicious too. Services here is super quick but the foods can take awhile even thought they are not that busy. If you order beef or chicken noodle soup, those will come out super quick!

Pho Tau Bay will always be my go to pho resto whenever I am visiting San Jose. The portions are huge and generous. The fresh rolls with shrimp was so filling and delightful as an appetizer too. The server and busser did an efficient job and we got all our food orders correctly. Everything was yummy, fresh and served hot. The ambiance of the restaurant feels very homey and casual.

One of the best places for vermicelli bowls in San Jose. They give huge portions. We ordered through DoorDash, and the food came fast and was still amazingly warm. Unlike other places where food to-go or delivered taste a bit soggy. This one was still good.

My family couldn't decide what to eat for dinner tonight and decided to go here because they have a little bit of everything. Because they offer so many variety, dont expect the quality to be amazing because no entree is a specialty. This location resides a plaza where parking is PACKED on the weekends, and so we opted to order for to-go. All items ordered were packed well and displayed pleasingly. Noodles were precooked, and so you would just have to pour the broth in. There is more broth than what the container with the noodles and meats could hold. If you want to really enjoy the good, you will have to pour all the contents in a true "pho bowl." Otherwise, you'll need to pour more broth into the bowl as you eat. Food is good for the price. Broth comes a bit more oily than I would like. My husband enjoys the BBH from this location because of the generous amount of greens that's usually packed for takeout.
