Ngoc Suong - San Jose

We ordered these and like them all, would order again:*Bahn xeo*Bo ne*Mi QuangVery generous on greens and herbs. Dish is reasonable sized.Prices around 15-20 per dish.

The food is good, but they cheap out on the portions. My Bo Ne only had 4 pieces of fries, 2 mushrooms, and half a table spoon of pate. Sometimes they blast the music and sing old school vietnamese music. It felt like a club, except clubs play good music and you just hear horrible singing here.

SUMMARY Something a little different from all the HITW pho shops in SJ. FOOD 3* Came here for sizzling beef and egg platter (bo-ne). Kind of hard to find outside So Cal and SJ. Honestly, not the best version I had but points for actually serving something different. Worth trying if ur craving it, but don't expect fireworks. SERVICE 3.5* Not much English but our server was nice, attentive. Then again we were like the only people there and she was the only server during an early lunch, around 11 on a week day. LOCATION 2.5* Inside a crowded Azn retail plaza. Fair sized lot, but really crowded. Little hard to find parking. The restaurant was dimly lit, windows were covered so. Or a lot of light. Kins if old and dingy looking but par for the course for they of spot. RECOMMENDATIONS Worth trying th bo-ne if ur looking for it. Only other nearby comp was the old Lion Plaza food court, and that place was in shambles!

This place has more flies than you can imagine. Weather was 90 outside and they don't even turn on the AC..Food tasted terrible. Won't come back for sure.

Dishes like beef steak were okay but 20$ small clams had sand and smelled really bad and couldnt taste and eat it like in some other restaurants
