Best pho! No after taste after realizing there’s no MSG in their food. The Banh Knot was also very crispy served with fresh veggies. Also tried this unusual refreshing drink that has grass jelly. Will definitely visit again.

Stellar Vietnamese restaurant with an extensive menu including fruit smoothies. Food was very tasty. Vietnamese coffee was delicious. Shaken beef was really good. Fried tofu and garlic green beans were great. Love the oldies music (60s and 70s) they play.

I ordered the pork vermicelli, bun rieu, and spring rolls. The vermicelli came with a generous amount of pork and great flavor. Spring rolls were decent. But the star was the bun rieu, super fresh ingredients and really balanced, rich flavor. Easily the best bun rieu I’ve had in the area. The service was also quick and great. Quick to fill waters and offered napkins.

Had an excellent overall experience! The food was delicious, and the service was top-notch. I visited this restaurant with my office colleagues, and everyone enjoyed the visit. They offer a good variety of vegetarian options, clearly marked on the menu. Highly recommend this place!

Just had a great meal at Viet Noms in Livermore, and it’s definitely one of the better Vietnamese spots in the Tri-Valley. The space is clean, modern, and inviting — it feels more polished than your typical pho joint but still keeps the homey vibe. Their pho is a clear highlight: the broth is rich and aromatic, with just the right balance of spices and sweetness. Portions are huge — easily one of the more generous bowls I’ve had around here. Noodles have good bite, and the meat is tender and flavorful. Great for a chilly day or when you’re just craving comfort food done right. The bún bò Huế (BBH) really surprised me — it’s one of the most potent, deeply flavored versions I’ve had outside of San Jose. The broth hits with that spicy, lemongrass-heavy kick you want in BBH. I do wish the meat cuts were a bit chunkier and that they included pork blood cubes for full authenticity, but even without that, it’s still a satisfying bowl. The salad was fresh but a bit underwhelming compared to the rest of the meal — maybe better as a light starter. What really rounds out the experience is the service. Staff here are super friendly, fast, and genuinely attentive. They make you feel welcome without hovering, which is the sweet spot for casual dining. Overall, Viet Noms delivers quality Vietnamese food in a setting that’s both relaxed and polished. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in Livermore or passing through. Try the pho, go for the BBH if you like spice, and enjoy the vibe.
