Underrated. Best pho in the area. Best ambience, and generous portions of noodles and beef. Friendly staff. The rice wrap on the spring rolls was fresh and not at all chewy, noodles were the same. Tender beef, not overcooked. Also, slightly cheaper than other places. Rating a 5 because they deserve at least a 4.6. Really enjoyed it.

This is the only place you can eat top notch Vietnamwss food in a cabin atmosphere! So cute, cozy and comfortable.

We ordered:
Pho combo -generous on the good meat
Lemongrass Chicken and shrimp rice – wow the grilled shrimp. Will order again definitely.
Spring rolls – great! Has peanut sauce
Egg rolls – solid
Chicken salad. – huge portion. Only thing is chicken a little tougher than I like.

Overall excellent food. Didn’t expect such high quality vietnamese food in Los altos. Will come back. Thank you.

I went there for an early bowl of Pho on a Saturday evening and got seated immediately. It’s a cozy street corner location with a clean table and chair setup. We have tried to dine here before but there was always a line to get in and at least a 15 minute wait time. The menu fits on one side of letter size paper and the beef selections featured only lean cuts.

I ordered the Brisket Pho which was brought to me promptly. The beef was indeed lean and plentiful. The broth and noodles were good, nothing special.

Service was great and I guess it’s popular for the lean beef selections with the wait times due to the limited seating. I prefer fattier cuts so I’ll repeat if Wifey insists. Free city lot parking is nearby and usually available.

We got Seafood Pho (Large) and Pork and Egg rolls rice. Both were good tasting. I like the pork since it is neither too sweet nor too salty compared to other places in the area. It was a good serving as well. It is just that they don’t accommodate a request for complimentary small bowl of broth to come with the rice. I could have given them 5 stars. A bit pricey but considering the value and servings, I can let it slide. Good outdoor dining experience.

I have a new favorite Pho restaurant! I’m happy to have found The Pho Cabin in Los Altos. The secret to a great Pho is creating an amazing broth and this place has cracked the code. The broth is super flavorful (even without Sriracha!), the noodles are tender and the sprouts, jalapeño, lime and onions are super fresh. There are quite a few other things on the menu that I will return to try. The staff is super friendly and on top of things. And I love the fact that the inside of the restaurant makes you feel like you are in Tahoe (hence “The Pho Cabin”.) They also play feel-good tunes while you dine. It’s a great spot!

I purchased a chicken banh mi and Vietnamese coffee. They were ok.

The chicken was well-marinated and juicy and delicious, but the bread seemed thinner than expected, and the small amount of pickles weren’t as tangy as I’d anticipated. The sandwich was served with a side of ruffled potato chips.

The coffee was already mixed on arrival; I personally enjoy separate layers of condensed milk and coffee, and given the $7 price tag, I was expecting that.

So everything was ok – not bad, not amazing.

I am so happy that Pho Cabin opened up near my home. I recently moved from the South Bay to the Peninsula and I was craving some good, home cooked, legit Vietnamese food. Pho Cabin met all my expectations. I loved that there were many options from Pho & noodle soups, rice plates, beef stew and so much more. All the dishes we ordered hit the spot. My favorite was the shaken beef. The beef was as soft as butter and the marinade was on point! The best I’ve ever had. It’s definitely a must try. The staff was really helpful and attentive. I can’t wait to come back and try more of their dishes.

Came with my partner and we ordered the Large Beef pho and small Chicken pho along with a Vietnamese iced coffee and sat outside since the day was nice. Service was a bit slow, not sure if that is because we were outside or something that they need to figure out since it looks like they had 2 servers but they were both coming outside and serving different tables. Both the chicken and beef were pretty good, flavorful broths with good noodles and the veggies were fresh.

The iced coffee however isn’t what I’m used to where they bring a cup out with the sweetened condensed milk and the coffee still dripping. It looks like it was made in a big batch and poured into the glass and wasn’t sweet enough. It was hard getting their attention just to order so I didn’t bother trying to get them to fix it. Even getting the check was hard to flag them down.

Both pho’s we’re good though so we’ll definitely come back and try some of their other dishes.

Had high hopes based on the activity of the busy restaurant but was sorely disappointed in the food quality.

Staff was friendly and Covid safe but that’s where the good ends.

The Pho Ga (chicken Pho) was cold and the chicken was dried out pieces of leathery cardboard. Not edible. The broth was as bland as it gets and not indicative of real Pho. Pretty lackluster.

The shrimp vermicelli: grilled shrimp was actually decent and the only edible part of my order. The noodles weren’t fully prepared and were clumped and didn’t come with enough sauce and what it came with was not fish sauce but a watery substitute.

Overall a disappointing experience especially given the price. They could use a better ingredients and a better chef.

If you have to eat in downtown Los Altos, and you want Viet/SE Asian style food, but don’t want the pungent smell of fish sauce, this is your jam.
Everything we had wasn’t bad, just very mild, it just didn’t have any of the usual fish sauce/smell.
Also missing were fresh herbs. Lemongrass pork and prawn vermicelli had zero lemongrass flavor/aroma, no mint leaves, the liquid sauce here was a mild sweet liquid. Mostly vermicelli and romaine, no sprouts, a few strips of watery mushy Daikon and carrots (normally they are pungent pickles). Pork banh mi had a very few of the mild carrot Daikon pickle but nothing else except mayo, no cilantro. So if you don’t like the pate, headcheese, fresh herbs, jalapeno, cucumber, and just want pork and bread, this is the place.
Pork was pretty oily, orange oil dripping like a folded NYC . Also the cut they used had a streak of fat, that ate crunchy, if that makes sense. (Obvi this isn’t the place to go for gourmet meat quality, I did break out in a rash from the pork. I am sensitive, when pork/chicken isn’t fresh, my body knows before my nose!)
Chopsticks were some of the best, they are pre-separated so less splinters.
During winter, come early, eat fast.
Seating inside is limited and cold, as front door is open.
