Pho New Saigon - Foster City

The most unfriendly service food was ok stew was tasty pork fried rice was fried rice with a small pork cutlet on top ,,so meh.Food: 3/5

One of our favorite Vietnamese restaurants in San Mateo Foster City is a must-visit. The staff is friendly and quick, even when they are busy and dishes are delivered slowly. The servers, usually middle-aged uncles and aunties, always apologize for any delays. The food is fantastic, with the pho being the most authentic in the area. While the bun bo Hue lacks flavor, the grilled shrimp and pork chops over vermicelli are a must-try and my favorite dish. Their Vietnamese coffee is also authentic and popular among diners. The restaurant is kid-friendly, providing utensils, plates, and even a food scissor for babies. It's always a pleasure to see a cup of coffee on most tables during our visits.

I ordered the seafood combo noodle and was disappointed to find that it was just frozen ingredients thrown into salty hot water. Unfortunately, I will not be returning to this restaurant.

We visit this restaurant frequently. They recently renovated and it looks very nice! The food is served quickly and tastes delicious. The staff is friendly and always get our orders right. We are going today and are excited to dine there again!

Food is fine I guess, when you get what you ordered.Scrutinize your take out order before you leave, even if yours is the only one on the counter.I got all the way home to realize that my order the only one on the counter, was not what I ordered even after repeating my order twice upon ordering, and repeating it yet again as it was handed over the counter to me.I made the effort to go to pick it up and take it home. I'm not going to go back yet again to get the order replaced. Shame on me for trusting something to be right, and letting someone else waste my money and my time. (And my apologies to the environment for throwing away food. My effort to bike there and back probably didn't offset the carbon waste of throwing away uneaten food.)Restaurants need to understand that if I order take out, I'm doing it to save the time of cooking. Now not only do I have to STILL cook dinner, but I also lost that half hour it took me to bike there and back. Plus I paid for throwaway takeout.Should I take some responsibility here for not having checked my order before leaving? Yes, I'll begin taking responsibility for doing someone else's job, because clearly they aren't going to take that responsibility.
