What's The Pho - Larkfield-Wikiup, California

Food: very delicious!! I'm a Vietnamese and live in San Jose so I have low expectations for Vietnamese food in Santa Rosa but to my surprise, their food was so good. Everything we got was excellent: flavorful broth for pho (both versions), well marinated for grilled pork, yummy sauce, and the flavor for garlic noodles was great.

Service: excellent customer service. You RARELY get this from a Vietnamese restaurant unless it's a fancy one. Usually, you can expect the food to be good at a Vietnamese restaurant but don't have high hope for service. Not with this restaurant, they are very nice, polite and professional. I saw the waiter help a different customer separate the left over pho, broth and noodle, into 2 separate containers so the noodles don't get overly soft. I wish he offered the same to my mom's and sister's leftover though. He gave us just a single container for both broth and noodles. I won't take away a star since their service was still very good.

Ambiance: small restaurant, not ideal for a big group but it's not overly crowded and very clean.

Highly recommend!

Surprisingly good food for a Vietnamese restaurant in Santa Rosa.

I got the rare steak pho and the fresh BBQ pork spring rolls TOGO. The spring rolls and peanut sauce are great! The pho is really good. What I like the most is how they packaged it all for TOGO. They keep the ingredients separate so it is easy to reheat at home. It grosses me out when Vietnamese restaurants put the raw beef on the cooked noodles. They do not do this here and it comes in a convenient bowl you can use on the go!

Excellent, authentic, delicious, fresh food and dishes. If you are thinking about it- just go. What a gem in outskirts of Santa Rosa - didn’t have much expectation given we have eaten a lot of good Vietnamese food in city and South Bay but this surprised us. Yumm!! We were craving pho after our healdsburg wine weekend and what a great way to end the trip!

Really nice vermicelli bun bowls. Wish it had some fried shallots in peanut mix, but still delicious. Best I’ve had in Bay Area. Really nice Vietnamese coffee, too. The service was terrific! Would go again 100%

Very welcoming upon entry. The place is a little small but they do got a couple seats for outside. I ordered a pho and smoked salmon rolls. The pho was full of flavor I gotta say the broth is one of the better ones in town. The smoked salmon rolls were ok. I wish they had more of the Smokey flavors in it. The pho alone was enough as it was a generous portion I could have done without the rolls.
