Pho Tan Hoa - San Francisco

This restaurant is not in a very good area so please be careful and watch your surroundings. As far as the food it was just ok! Also if you decide to eat here make sure you bring CASH they do not accept cards (atm is located inside if you forget)

Extra Large Beef combination Pho is a must if you are staying near the Tenderloin area. Extra large means the bowl is extra large too. Tripe, raw beef, beef balls, stomach and tendon. Soup is full of flavour and the pho texture is amazing. Will definitely come again.

I don't know why Turtle Tower and Golden Star are higher rated, but this place definitely has the best pho out of the bunch. Also the service is lightning fast; probably the fastest in the bay area. It is in the tenderloin so watch out for the homeless junkies who tend to loiter around out front. It's truly amazing how 5,6,10 years later, it still tastes the same: delicious. Best sf lunch ever

Stick to the beef pho, clearly the house specialty. One of few noodle houses open for breakfast in the Tenderloin — a plus. Standard Vietnamese appetizers, good but not over the top. Full-flavored bone broth, best accompanied with black pepper and homemade chili oil. Forego the sriracha and hoisin which will cover the subtle aromatics. Any combination of beef toppings served by numbered order — in small, medium and large. Seafood pho and fresh spring rolls, decent.

I’ve gone to this place for so many years. Their pho is better than the one I’ve had in Vietnam. Spring rolls are also good. And their orange juice is a must try!
