For us Americans who can’t make it out to Vietnam, I’ve found the best Pho in the US is in Orange County, CA and Boston’s Dorchester neighborhood!

Philadelphia also has some incredible Pho shops, most in South Philly.
You are missing out on San Jose. It has the largest population Vietnamese diaspora.
Could you please share a list of your favorites in San Jose/Bay Area?
In San Francisco I love having pho in Chinatown. Golden Star Vietnamese Restaurant, Sai's Vietnamese, and Golden Flower are the ones I like the most.
There are so many Vietnamese restaurants in San Jose it's really more similar to the Hanoi recommendation: you just have to experiment until you find the ones that resonate with your personal tastes. I recommend searching reddit for "best pho in San Jose" -- you'll find a number of threads, many of which feature similar sets of restaurants.
For those that do visit Vietnam admit that it’s better in the USA, too.
What are your OC recs?
