Pho Ha Noi

Pho Ha Noi brings 40 years of Vietnamese culinary tradition to 185 University Ave in Palo Alto, with a commitment to premium ingredients and fresh, flavorful dishes. The restaurant is known for its rich, warming pho broth served on fine rice noodles with tender beef brisket, beef tendons, and beef balls. The space feels modern and welcoming, suited for everything from a quick weekday lunch to a relaxed family dinner. A full bar rounds out the experience, and the outdoor seating area adds a comfortable option for mild Palo Alto evenings. The kitchen also draws praise for its shaking beef, a standout beyond the signature pho bowls.
