Bun Bo Hue An Nam 3

Definitely great taste. Just that compared to other great places in San Jose, it doesn't deserve 5 stars. The meat was so tendered and I love it.

Bunbohue here is an okay for me. It doesn't have a special taste that makes my heart want to come back. It doesn't have the special flavor for me to rremember. It's totally different than the Story location. NO wait or reservation. The place is quite, and that's why the staff should be more mindful. Eating in the front, but I was able to hear the staff conversation in the back :((

You normally have to sacrifice good service for good food at most Vietnamese restaurants, but definitely not here! Dishes come out piping hot and full of flavor. I came here with my boyfriend to introduce him to Vietnamese food and we definitely will be coming back. There's two TVS--one normally plays Vietnamese entertainment, while the other plays a Netflix movie/show/animation that kids could enjoy. Staff is incredibly sweet and accommodating. The bathroom is also shockingly clean and slightly reminiscent of a hotel-style restroom. Check this place out, and try the com bo luc lac (shaking beef cubes and rice)!

There's something lacking in the BunBoHue here . There's definitely enough meat and blood cakes and portion is right, but the broth isn't integrated well into the noodles. It almost seems like the noodle was added and have not completely soaked up the broth. Same issue with the ingredients of the noodle bowl. All required meats and tendons are there, but they seem separated from the broth. It almost seems like the individual components are added cold, and not cooked together in one pot. My reference for BunBoHue would be a light but hearty broth with various tendons and blood cake and meats, along with rice noodles. This isn't it unfortunately.

Still working out their kinks as they just recently opened. They have hu tieu on the menu, which I noticed many other tables were getting. I got banh beo chen as well and they were not as good as Hue's version. The banh beo were cold, had too much onion, no pork rind, and there was definitely not enough fish sauce to go with it. The bun bo hue was really bland and the noodle to meat ratio was way off, there were too much noodles in my bowl. Finally I wish they had steak as an option for the meat in bun bo hue like the other two locations. I'd give them so time to work things out before visiting again. Waiting for a table at Hue is worth it.
