My nail lady recommended this place to me and it was definitely so delicious. I think they have the best pho and bun rieu I’ve ever had.

Menu has many options. Food is delicious. The manager as well as workers are friendly, astesy. Everyone thinks this one was the best for coming. We're sure we will be back.

Some friends told me about this Pho King place, so I decided to try it out for myself. From the time I entered the Pho King Restaurant, I was greeted by smiling faces. Every Pho King employee was attentive to my needs from the time I was seated, to the presentation of the check. I’m definitely a Pho King fan, and planning on returning soon!

Pretty good overall. I appreciated that it was easy to pull up and park here, even on a weekend. Portion sizes were solid; really loved the vermicelli bowl. The pho was solid, but might have had a bit too star anise in the seasoning for me, since it tasted a tad more licorice-y than I usually see. A sweeter broth, less complex in flavor. Still pretty good though- I loved the texture and bounciness of the banh pho, had a great chew to them.

A great spot to get a quick bite to eat that is t too expensive as well. They have good portion sizes and the broth in the soups in not bad, a little oily but not bad at all. I like the option that they have egg noodles, and i would like a little more meat but that’s just preference. If you haven’t tried this place give it a go.

We stopped by this place for lunch today and got lucky to beat the rush! Excellent food with large porition and clean environment. We sat outside in the covered patio. I had Vermicelli with Fried Shimp wihch tasted great with fresh ingrediantes. Others had Pho which was also well recieved. Would recommend the place for quick lunch. There is also ample parking around the resturant.

Found this place on the way to Berkeley to drop off my daughter. The price is cheaper compared to Irvine,and the portion is very generous. But the flavor is average.

*2/14/2024 The portion size was generous, but unfortunately, the soup base was overwhelmingly salty. We ended up guzzling water just to quench our thirst after eating it 7/7/2023 During my visit to Pho King in Oakland, I ordered the Bun Bo Hue, Spring Rolls, and Egg Rolls. The Bun Bo Hue consisted of Hot & Spicy Soup with Beef, Pork Blood, Pork Cake, and Vermicelli. Overall, the food tasted okay. The Bun Bo Hue had a decent flavor, although it didn't particularly stand out. The soup had a good level of spiciness, and the inclusion of beef, pork blood, and pork cake added some variety to the dish. However, I found the taste to be average, without any exceptional elements. Regarding the Spring Rolls and Egg Rolls, they were satisfactory, but they didn't leave a lasting impression. The flavors were acceptable, but I felt that they could have been more flavorful and distinctive. In summary, the food at Pho King was decent and tasted okay. While nothing was particularly outstanding, it wasn't disappointing either. It would be great if they could focus on enhancing the flavors to make the dishes more memorable.

It was my first experience at this location. The environment made us feel comfortable. However, there were smokers nearby and I kept smelling the smoke which was annoying. We sat outside and were greeted promptly. Me and my friend both ordered the Bun Bo Hue (spicy noodle soup +). We had trouble communicating with the waiter. I requested no blood cubes in my soup but I got it anyway. I asked for my bean sprouts to be blanched but they were not..... Nonetheless the staff was friendly. I was disappointed with my order. My noodles were these thick slippery rice noodles instead of the usual vermicelli. The meat and the taste was just alright. I do want to come back and try other items on the menu, but I won't be ordering this Bun Bo Hue again.

Broth was a little light on flavor. Pork in my rice dish had some really good char, but it wasn't a very filling meal, size wise. Overall, price was pretty standard fare at $25 for two people, no drinks, and tip.

I’ve ordered “bun cha Hà Nội” togo. The pork cakes are so dry & burnt. The bbq pork slices were dried & salty as well. I haven’t been here for awhile and I think my to go experience wasn’t meet my expectations & the price has gone up too.

Not sure what happened or maybe went on a bad day. Ordered grilled beef over rice and XL pho tai chin togo. 5 thin grilled beef slices over rice and 5 raw thin slices of beef for XL pho. My dine in experience here 3 months ago was good but this is extremely discouraging me to come back for my Vietnamese food fix :/

This place hit the spot and fulfilled a need to eat something quick before heading out to a venue. The food arrived very quickly which was a good thing. But it definitely had the taste and feel of something that was prepared way, way, way, way, way in advance. Am I dancing in the streets as a result? No - but it was just okay.

My experience here was definitely lacking. If you actually like pho and spring rolls do not order the spring rolls! The quality of the shrimp is not fresh at all Plus they charge three times the amount for half? For example I got an order of spring rolls that cost $11 just to find out that their spring rolls are cut in half! So essentially I'm paying three times the amount for only two spring rolls? Their soup came in a container that busted in the bag so I'm not able to even use it and the noodles that also came with the foot we're not good either do not go to this place if you actually like Vietnamese food

Food is terrible. Not sure what is going on with the kitchen. We came here all the times. Today the soup has no flavor, taste like power soup base. The appetizers has peanut and menu doesn’t alert the customers. We also ordered a chicken vermicelli, chicken is so dry. We didn’t eat at all. My friend didn’t want me bring it up to the owner, we paid and left the restaurant. I returned back and let them know right away.

12/13/2025 I went for Pho with my mother. While waiting to be served I watched a female server in blue vest up front blow her nose while wearing gloves, swirl the tissue in each nostral and rinse and dry her gloves! Then, she goes to the window, take a family their soup in the same gloves. She then returned to stand up front and continued wiping at her nose, then wiping the gloves! Never changing them gloves. I told the man who greets customers to please tell her to change her gloves and wash her hands. He became angry with me and did not help, so we left. I've eaten here for years but never again. They will cause illness operating that way. I plan to tell the health department what I witnessed.
