Pho Bac Hoa Viet | Stockton, CA

I am a regular at this restaurant. Today, I asked for the rest room key. And the male worker who was eating pho made a comment to the hostess about if it's for a man or woman (I am a masculine dressing woman) and they carried on in their language laughing and bullying me. I love their food, but today they lost a loyal customer. The behavior is childish and unnecessary, especially because I eat at their restaurant regularly. If you are LGBT, they are not LGBT friendly. So sincerely disappointed. They also gave me dirty silverware and there were noodles attached to my straw. Either this was discrimination or they're just dirty. But either way, it's a problem.

📍 Quick Take: Solid local pho spot with consistent flavor every time. Not the absolute best, but very reliable and worth going to—especially for the price. 🍜 What I Ordered: • Medium Pho 🔥 Food: The broth is where this place stands out—it’s consistently good every visit. Clean, balanced flavor and never off. For me, it’s better than Mac Pho and pretty much on par with Saigon Bay. Meat and portions are solid—nothing over the top, but always dependable. 🥢 Texture & Execution: Noodles cooked right, not mushy. Everything comes out hot, which is important for pho and they don’t miss on that. 💸 Value: About $1 cheaper than most pho spots nearby. For the consistency alone, it’s already worth it. 🏪 Atmosphere: Simple and casual. Standard pho shop setup. 🙋 Service: No issues. Food comes out in a reasonable time. 📌 Final Verdict: Above average pho spot that’s easy to recommend. The biggest thing here is consistency—you know what you’re getting every time. Not a destination spot, but a very solid go-to. 🔁 Would I Come Back? Yes. Consistent flavor, fair price, and closer than other similar spots—hard to beat that combo.

The place is quite big, bright and clean. The service is fast. The pho is quite good, there are small, medium and large. They serve rice, chinese foods, boba and viet coffee. The parking is free and big lot.

Nothing special about this place, ordered the calamari it was mediocre at best, its was not crispy at all. The egg rolls was okay. I ordered the wonton egg noodles but they bought out some else, when I sent it back they gave me an attitude. When I got the right ordered it was not good at all, the noodles was all clump up to together and they left, broth was very light in flavor and wonton was small.

The broth is delicious. However, it seems like they used slightly old noodles. When old rice noodles are used, they can have a distinct taste. I really love pho, so much that I even make it myself at home, so I consider myself pretty knowledgeable about it. The broth on its own was very tasty, but when eaten with the noodles, that “distinct taste” made it hard to keep enjoying the dish, which was disappointing. As seen in other reviews, I also found a short strand of hair in my food while eating. As shown in the photos, parts of the restaurant look quite worn down. Still, it seems to be a popular local spot.
