Fellas, you don’t know how good you have it. I’m from NYC and I am confident that this is a superior joint to anything I can find. The last time I had something this good was in Toronto almost a decade ago. The bun vermicelli was the perfect thickness, and the five spice chicken so juicy. And getting taro in a spring roll these days?? Jesus go support this place!
This is my all time favorite PHO spot in SF for a long time. They have the best crab meat noodle soup here which not using the ketchup to make the soup base. I always choose flat rice noodle which taste really good Fried tofu salad also has the right amount of the dressing to combine with peanuts as well. Simply the simple and good quality food. Five spice friend chicken with rice or garlic noodle are both good too. Satay beef pho it’s special not all the restaurants offer this. However, I took one star down because the restroom really need a renovation work. Overall service is good and good quality also decent too.
legit pho spot, The noodles were tangy and chewy and bouncy was a little more salty but so flavorful. The spring rolls you can skip lol
Have eaten here for 10+ years and always gotten the same thing. The #8 is the ultimate spicy /curry /chicken soup. The spring rolls and imperial rolls are legit but just a skosk too Caucasian to be for my liking… doesn’t mean I don’t order them for the wifey tho.
Shout out to Connie who’s an angel when it comes to entertaining my 5 year old and her fledging Mandarin skills.
Love this place like it’s an integral part of the city and hands down my fav noodle spot on the west side of town. Cheers
The wings were so juicy so flavorful, the papaya salad was tangy and crunchy and the peanuts and chicken balanced so well. Everything was delicious! Def recommend.
PPQ Noodle House is a hole in the wall Vietnamese noodle restaurant that has been serving up delicious dishes since 2007. The restaurant is located in the Outer Sunset neighborhood of San Francisco, and it is a popular spot for locals, folks coming out of the nearby bars and tourists alike.
While the menu is large, I usually go with either their Pho, Bun Bo Hue, or Oxtail noodle soup as they've never let me down and are both flavorful & filling.
If I'm extra hungry, I'll grab some crispy rice cakes or spring rolls to top off my stomach but their noodle bowls are typically substantial enough to not make that necessary.
Family owned and run, so I ask anyone reading this to please tip kindly as this is a neighborhood Gem that deserves to be supported.

Updated review 6/14/2022:
PPQ is as good as the first time I ate here, back in the 1990's. The thing that keep me coming back is, they are opened late until 9:30pm. Sometimes I take a nap after work and by the time I wake up, most places are closed. My #1 pho dac biet, medium $11.25 was good. There's less meat now than before though. The imperial rolls $9.25 weren't great. They were too mushy in the middle. I would have preferred some rice noodles along with the cucumber, lettuce and mint leaves. Regardless, I'm just glad they were opened at 9:30pm.
Updated review. Indoor dining 4/21/2021. Tonight I had their five spice chicken garlic noodles with a fried egg. Even on a Wednesday, they were pretty packed. There's an endless flow of food delivery workers picking up orders causing the single waitress to be overwhelmed. Their little kitchen can't keep up. Their garlic noodles are not bad and the chicken was moist with good amount of flavor. Good job PPQ.
Indoor dinner 3/19/2021. Pho Phu Quoc PPQ no longer have outdoor dining tables, only indoors. They have five indoor tables and a few window counter seats. The waitress told me indoor dining started Wednesday 3/10/2021 for them. Sometimes the kitchen staff will make spring rolls in those window seats, so it might not be available all the time. I only came here because Kevin's pho across the street was packed. I didn't want to risk getting sick. I ordered their #1, pho dac biet $12. There was a mistake with the noodles and the waitress had to bring it back to the kitchen. I can totally understand why they messed up my order. The waitress was running back and forth with all those food delivery app workers. PPQ's soup broth was alright. It is authentic and I can taste that it was boiled for a long time. They are really stingy with the meats, tendons and tripe though. The menu clearly said "meatballs". There was only one meatball in my large pho dac biet. Regardless, my meal tonight was not bad. Good job PPQ staff. My bill was $15 with tax and tip.
Excellent pho ga, shrimp rolls and great service; they'll happily accommodate any special vegetarian/vegan requests. Service might get slow when they're very busy in the evenings but the wait is worth it.
The last time we been here was about 3 years ago. The curry chicken noodles soup still taste excellent! Also spicy beef and ice coffee. Not the cleanest place but it's all about the food

Came here for the first time and was blown away! Very large serving sizes, filling broth, variety of menu options, generous staff, quick serving time. We were seating immediately. Dining area is wonderful and clean. The only thing I would mention is use the bathroom beforehand!
Delicious noodle soup here! I think Kevin’s probably has better pho across the street but this place has more/better choices when you explore noodle soups other than pho, like bun bo hue, or their oxtail noodle soup
I eat here on a regular basis. I have my favorites. The emperor rolls are crispy and delicious. The five spice chicken (I eat with the garlic noodle) is done to perfection. The chicken cabbage salad is the best anywhere. Staff is always friendly and happy to see us, it's nice to remembered and welcomed warmly.
Food was ok. Garlic noodles were a little too cooked for me. The pork had flavor but came out cold. The chicken was nice and cripy but lacked flavor.
Service was sit here, order, wait, food and bye

I live a couple hours south and visit whenever I’m nearby. Although they offer many good dishes, the curry chicken pho is SO good I rarely get anything else. Once, I asked how they made their potatoes so delicious and they shared that they fry them before cooking them in the curry broth. Amazing! If I want to know my “fortune” I count how many potatoes I find in the broth ☺️
The chicken is ample and high quality breast meat. After a hundred visits, I daringly tried a different broth, satay instead of curry (all their phos can be modified with different broths). Yes, satay broth is very good, but it does not include potatoes. I’ll be sticking with the most excellent curry for my next hundred lunches.
Once, I was in San Francisco all day, had the pho for lunch and thought, “I can have anything at all I want for dinner. The city offers such variety.” After much thought, I realized that nothing could match repeating lunch. So twice that day.
I rated Service at 4 stars because it’s quite good, but want to save 5 stars for something extraordinary. Atmosphere is fine. I wouldn’t ask for anything else, but it’s simple and functional and comfortable. My 4 star rating is no complaint, just an acknowledgement that there’s nothing extraordinary about it. The bathroom is clean and, warning, the water can be very hot.
Loved the pho! Inexpensive yet very good. Would love to eat here again, when I am back in the area next. Was busy when we got there, so looks like it is a local favorite as well.
A low key Vietnamese food. Great pho’s! Location is good. Price are cheap. Ambiance makes you feel in Vietnam🙌
