Reviews for Pho Bac Hoa Viet in Sacramento, CA
Craving for some good pho. Lots of reviews and ratings in google map, And here we are. Place is pretty big and spacious. Staffs... are friendly. Pho not bad, soups not hot enough, it might've been better if its hot instead of warm. Ordered pho no 3 and phowith beef balls only, added extra beef balls. Noodles portion are a lot and generous amount of meats. Bcoz noodles are a lot, Itabsorb most of the soup, we had to remove half of the noodles and ask for a bowl of extra soup. Its hot enough this time. Maybebcoz too little soup poured into a bowl of room temperature noodle, meat and raw beef, soup turns tepid. I'll be sure to ask forhalf portion of noodles next time. Ordered Vietnam cold coffee too. Too sweet. Remember to ask for reduced sweet condensedmilk. The place caters for keto warriors and vegetarian too. Yeay! Read more
Good food, good service, nice interior and outdoor seating. Recommended. Revisited on Sunday dinner, busy, service downgraded,... tried pho today, the soup was good. The Vietnamese crepe and Hoa Viet special noodle soup were average. Read more
Food was delicious. Nice flavors. Big portions. no complaints on that. Their hot coffee presentation was unique and... interesting. Service was decent. We asked for black coffee but it came with condensed milk, we notified the waitress, insteadof giving us the new ones, she just poured the same one into the new container, and ofc since of the condensed milk did transferto the new glass, to my siblings it wasn't a big deal, but as a person with lactose intolerance it was a big deal to me. Overallservice wasn't bad, only this bothers me. Also, we have 5 people, the waitress charged us 18% of the service fee without sayinganything to us as if they wished we would miss it and give them extra. Read more

extra large pho is available! Since My husband loves noodles, this place is great. Not only because of the amount of noodles but... also because of the soup taste. It’s savory broth with meats. I like their pho too. I got #52 beef. Egg roll was crispy andwarm. Their fish sauce is a little blended which means I don’t need to deal with strong fish sauce flavors. There are someyam(?) Inside beef so it gives me a crunchy and chewy texture at the same time. Mixed well with the other ingredients. Willvisit again. Read more
We're out of state so since this Pho place had a 4.3 Stars rating, we thought we'd try it out. It seems to be a very whitewashed... version of a Vietnamese restaurant to me. It gives off kind of an Applebee's kind of vibe, with toned down and bland Asianfoods. We ate here on a Sunday afternoon, Dec 2021.. It was kind of busy. There was like 80% Non-Asian people eating here. Whenwe arrived, we signed in on a waitlist to Dine-in for a group of 4. When we sat down and received our waters my Sister has ababy cockroach in her water, which I laughed and told the waitress immediately. She quickly poured it out and got her a new oneso I didn't get to take a picture in time for this review. Lol Anyways, we order three Pho #1's, and one beef Vermicelli,without the bean paste. The eggrolls in the Vermicelli has Mushrooms, which I thought was interesting because it tastedgood/okay. The Pho broths was kind of bland, and you can tell this wasn't an authentic Vietnamese/Asian restaurant because theydidn't have Asian Fish Sauce. Lol The beef in my Vermicelli was soooo tough, I was only able to chew and swallow 1 and a halfout of the three that they gave me in my bowl; see pictures attached. The beef in the Phos were also VERY tough and chewy. TheHoney Dew Boba drink I received was also very powdery and not very well mixed. My sister got the 3-Colored Sweet drink, and it'sbasically a shaved ice Nam Vam. She didn't really like it because it wasn't really a "Drink" but more of a shaved cup of icewith Nam Vam at the bottom, with weird pieces of tasteless coconut shavings? That's how she described it. Anyways, I know a lotof white folks have a very white and bland taste palate, so this place is definitely not bad, for them. So, if you're not Asianand looking for an Americanized toned-down Asian kind of food place, this is definitely the place you should try. 3/5 starsbecause the customer service was okay, without tremendously amazing food. The bathroom looked decent but smell Read more
There are lots of options on the menu from Pad thai, Curry, Bahn Mi, and much more. The food is good but there are better places... to eat. The Bahn mi i had here while excellently portioned left a lot to be desired. Read more
