Stopped by to have a bowl of pho on these chilly nights and it delivered. Got an XL pho tai and mi quant to share with three people and it was the perfect amount of food. There is a large selection of Vietnamese food, so will definitely be back to try more again. Service was efficient and well done. Very clean environment and airy.

Pho King near Lake Merrit
This was a happy accident. I didn't know there were two Pho King locations. This place is huge and spacious, plus the bathroom is lovely and super clean, and they have indoor and outdoor dining. I went on a Tuesday afternoon. It wasn't that busy; I sat outside because it was warm when I went. I had Bun Cha Ha Noi at both locations. The one in Little Saigon is too sweet, but Pho King Lake Merritt is so good that the meat is saucy and yummy without being too sweet. I also ordered Thai tea, and it was good. The bathroom is super clean. Great service. I will come back to try the Bun Bo Hue. Pho King near Lake Merritt has moved to the top of my Vietnamese restaurant list. T

I've been coming here for dine-in & take-out for over 5 years, there are some great pho restaurants in Oakland and this is one of the more consistent places.
Take out pho with noodles uncooked is my jam, I take it home and heat everything up in a pot and enjoy it on days where the fam doesn't feel like going out.

New and much nicer location for Pho King. Lots of parking out front and room inside a clean restaurant. The food is reliable. We had #8 and #16 pho along with the full spread appetizer, which I highly recommend. Food came out quickly.

Been meaning to check out Pho King for a while. I finally had a chance recently and it was okay but not amazing.
I came for an early dinner around 4:30 and it was pretty empty. They have both outdoor and indoor seating, but since it was a bit chilly out, we opted to sit inside. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside.
The menu is pretty large with all of your standard Vietnamese offerings: various appetizers, pho and other noodle soups, vermicelli bowls, and a ton of rice dishes.
I was starving, so I ordered A13 thit cuon (grilled pork roll) for $9.50 as well as a large bowl of the #5 pho with eye of round steak, well done flank, and tendon ($13.50).
The grilled pork roll was delicious, though I found the grilled pork a bit tough to chew. For the pho, the broth was very flavorful. However, I wasn't impressed with the amount of tendon I got (2 tiny pieces), and the fact that they were still hard to chew. Good tendon should be melt in your mouth soft, and that wasn't the case here. Tendon is my favorite meat in pho, so I was disappointed in my bowl.

My kids are growing up on their Pho and Egg Rolls! Always consistent, clean and service is fast. Of course food is good, too!

I come here whenever I crave Vietnamese. My friend who grew up in Vietnam says this is her favorite spot. You know if it's recommended by somebody who grew up there, that it's really good.
The service is always so fast and the portions are huge and the prices can't be beat. So much seating too and I've always been able to be seated even at busy times.
Love pho king.

Solid Vietnamese food in Oakland. The pho soup is tasty and the noodles and meat are pretty standard. Pork chop is flavorful and comes with a side of soup along with some pickled veggies. Egg rolls were super fresh and crispy when they came out. I'm only not giving this a 5/5 because I've been to Vietnam and have had the best of the best Vietnamese food there but this is again pretty solid.
Service is excellent. Their staff is friendly and attentive! Before the pandemic, it was always a super long wait but now I was able to walk up without waiting.
Ambiance is clean and they have both outdoor and indoor seating. Pretty standard. Lots of tables!
