  parking space: a lot...
  price: average...
  service: just ok...
  
  taste: foods are recommended!!! whatever foods here, mostly the pork chop. recommend to buy with the bone one, i think taste better than boneless. the beef noodle is also yummy. my niece always wants the large size. good that they have small, medium, and large size. this place is definitely recommended for the foods, but do not expect the ambience. just ok. crowded when lunch time...

  The pho here is EXCELLENT. I've eaten here dozens of times. Exactly what you want, and reasonably priced.  But note that I ONLY order #16 - sliced rare beef. I don't do tripe, tendon, or anything like that. I just don't. You can, but that's not for me.
  
  I go here only for the soup. Beyond that, it is NOT a dining experience. It can be loud, crowded, and there's much yelling between those working in the dining room and those in the kitchen. The atmosphere is strictly that of an eatery. The decor is nondescript and the service is typical of a pho house. By those service standards, it's fine.
  
  But for most restaurant experiences, the service is actually substandard. They don't speak much English, and they will come to your table EXACTLY THREE TIMES - 1) to bring you a menu and cup of water, 2) to take your order, and 3) to deliver your food. THAT. IS. IT. If you want better service than that, I suggest going elsewhere. Otherwise, you will need to speak up and summon someone to your table. Be prepared for this. And pay your bill at the counter. Always.
  
  Look. I love this place -- but strictly for the pho. I know what I'm getting, and also what I won't get. It's run by a family that is interested in getting good pho in front of you as quickly as possible. They do that well. But that's it.
  
  Hope that helps.

  I'm not usually in this area, but after a crazy party night with a bunch of friends, my friend decided to take us to her hangover remedy spot.
  
  I ordered the Bun Bo Hue (spicy beef noodle soup) and it was so different compare to the others that I have had. The noodles were a bit thicker and chewier, and the broth was super flavorful ( not too spicy).
  
  I usually don't finish my bowl when I'm hungover, but I demolished it because it was so good. Majority of my friends also finished their bowls too.
  
  Pho Saigon is definitely the spot for hangover remedies and also, a place to just grab good pho/bbh.

  The family and I have eaten here a few times. It's owr goto pho place in Pleasanton. They have your standard selection of PHO and Vermachillie bowls plus a good selection of sides and rice plates. This place is not fancy but if you want good food and a friendly atmosphere... You should give this place a try.

  It's my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in the TriValley area. It's family-owned and we always see the owners every time we go. Their pho is flavorful and always consistent. You can order small, large or extra large. You can also order extra meat or extra noodles. They also have a great bun and rice plates. Their egg noodle or rice noodle soups are also delicious. They also have a spicy noodle soup which I never order because I don't like spicy soups. But according to my father-in-law, it tasty and spicy and he enjoys it.
  
  They have different smoothies, Vietnamese coffee and fresh lemonade sodas. All so good!
  
  The only thing I wish they would have on the menu is Vietnamese sandwiches. But that doesn't stop me from coming to eat here. The staff recognizes us and seats us quickly. They take our order quickly as well and the food comes out fast.
