Hot pho

As an avid pho lover, this place serves the best pho in Dublin hands down. As I walked in, I was greeted with a pleasant aroma. I ordered a large Dac Biet and it was truly a work of art. The thin cuts of meat perfectly complimented the rich broth. The portions were generous for a $14 bowl. The service was good but nothing special. This place was also very clean, probably due to its recent opening.

Being a PHO shop. I came in expecting tasty PHO broth. Quick service and food came out fast. Honestly, I felt like broth was not flavorful at all. Egg roll was on point. It is what it is. I recommend Saigon Cafe downtown Livermore if you're looking for PHO in this area.

Not expensive anyway and very tasty. This place serves up authentic Vietnamese Pho and it’s some of the best I’ve ever eaten. The staff were super friendly and the food was very quick. I would highly recommend this restaurant, it’s super delicious!

Saw this place and was surprised that Amazing Basil was no more. Decided to give it a try and got a #45 grilled shrimp and pork with vermicelli to go. I liked the flavors and decided I’d go back for another visit.

Re-visited the establishment on a windy and cold day so we had cravings for pho. I ordered a medium sized #7 rare steak and brisket. Wifey got #6 rare steak, tendon and tripe. She was hungry as she started eating right away so I lost my opportunity to snap a good photo. Doh! I liked my pho. The soup did not have an intense flavor, but was good enough and wifey said she didn’t detect any MSG (or it was very little that there was barely any trace). She did notice that the noodles were sturdier - like they didn’t break easily. Furthermore, the noodle did not absorb much of the soup. I’m not sure if that was an improved version of noodles or it was just way too processed and … unnatural. Lol. We also ordered the fried fish cake. Not quite what we expected, but not too bad. I think wifey wanted the fried shrimp cake. All good - we’ll get it next time.

I like to support small local businesses and we certainly would go back to visit again. There was not a lot of customers dine-in or to-go when we were there so we’re concerned that this place may not last long. Hopefully this place can survive as it has great potential.

Good food. A pleasant ambiance and service.

Pho and egg noodle soups have very good broth. Sliced pork over rice did not disappoint either.

Will definitely come back!

Cheers! Happy eating peeps.
