I ordered the combo pho XL, the broth is good, on the clear and savory side(not so sweet and umami). But portion is not good, it’s large at motst. The way they serve spring rolls are creative and easy to eat. I really like it.

As a vegetable fried rice connoisseur, I really appreciate the variety of vegetables and tofu included in the rice! Makes it rich in flavor! But I must say it’s really controversial to include the cilantro herb throughout the dish. As one of the 10% of people who think cilantro tastes like soap, I think it really brings down the rice’s rating to 3 stars.

I really wanted to like this place as someone who lives and works in the area. I tried it a few times and each time different menu items. Every single time neither my husband nor I could finish. It never tasted good and had lots of issues. The service was always very lacking. Maybe I just got unlucky and caught them on bad days but after the 3rd try I’m done. Sorry folks! Not for me.

My new go-to for true Vietnamese on the Peninsula! Super similar to the pho I’ve had in Vietnam and SJ (my standard)—pure, simple, fresh! Such a homey spot with an extensive menu of Vietnamese classics: banh xeo (rice crepe), cha gio (imperial rolls with taro), pho, bún rieu, vermicelli bowls, rice plates—even the banh mí’s look great. Food came out super quick; flavors weren’t too salty/heavy but just right. Great outdoor patio right on Broadway with string lights for the vibes. With the warm weather it felt like I was back in Saigon enjoying a bowl of pho on the street while motorcycles buzz around. Hard to find a gem like this on the Peninsula. If you’re looking for super homey, true Vietnamese food, come here!!

A good Vietnamese restaurant in Redwood City downtown. We ordered crepe and fried rice and both were very good with respect to taste and pricing.

Delicious pho tai. Rare beef was very tender, broth was super flavorful, basil/bean sprouts super fresh, and service was excellent. Very accommodating for our 3 year old too.

Changed my reviews upon trying the bun Bo hue. Everything about the spicy broth was amazing. 3star pho, 5star bun Bo hue.

I will give it zero star if I could. Ordered the signature beef noodle soup and there was a bug in it! Asked the waiter why there was a bug, he checked it by using the spoon to cut the bug into half in the bowl!!! Got no apology from them, but a cold ask: do you want to have another one? Absolutely not! Will never go again!

Waiter was great and everything came surprisingly quick. I definitely recommend the pho. The broth was yummy and the chicken pieces they choose are high quality and cooked well. Lemonade was amazing

May’s have a nice patio where you can dine outside which is a plus but the food is okay. Both beef and vermicelli were over cooked and too sweat. Fried rice was okay, just meet, egg, and onions – hmm too simple even for my kids. They make pretty good Vietnamese ice coffee tho. The service is okay as well, a bit on a slow side. If you are looking for an inexpensive sit-down restaurant, May’s is not bad as other restraints in the area got super expensive.
