My Sidestreet Pho review My reason I gave this place a four out of five star. I understand times are hard, and the restaurant decided to save on costs $$ by literally cutting corners. Their food and service is excellent. There is no complaints about that. I always have the oxtail Pho, it’s so delicious!!! Within the last year or so, I’ve noticed in the oxtail pho soup that the bone in the soup has been cut in half. It’s a little sad to think that this was the means of cutting the cost. Literally cutting the bones in half not even receiving the full amount of an oxtail bone. The other thing about that is there were tiny little slivers of bone fragments, that didn’t feel safe to sip the soup. So eat oxtail soup at your own risk. The photos are of my take out order, but I have experienced the same experience while eating at the restaurant and did not mention anything. Parking: At the Alameda location parking is a little hard to find during the day, after 5 PM parking is free, but still a little hard to find. Kid-friendliness: Yes, it very kid friendly….
We had Side Street Pho cater our holiday party in Oakland. The food was such a hit!!!! They even made sure everything was set up for our party!! I am so grateful for them. Thank you for the great service!
I live in New York now but I used to live in alameda for many years and came to side street often. It is the BEST Vietnamese food I’ve ever had. The tumeric catfish I still dream about! When I come To Town once or twice a year it’s the first place I come!
Món chả giò và bánh xèo quá dở Chả giò cuốn quá nhỏ, gầy ốm và nhân thiếu tôm cua nên không thơm. Tệ nhất là bánh xèo đổ quá dầy vì nhiều bột quá. Mỡ đọng nhiều trong bánh nên bánh không don. Bánh xèo đổ khéo là phải mỏng, bánh không giữ mỡ dầu và thực dòn thì mới ngon . Chân thành góp ý để làm tốt hơn
beef brisket pho and broth in it is super delicious, best one I've ever had in my limited Vietnamese restaurants experience
