One of Roger’s favorite spots for bún bò Huế and bún riêu, with seafood dishes he says you rarely see at typical pho houses. Cash only.
Start with bún bò Huế with everything or bún riêu or the clam dish with shrimp crisps, and check the restaurant’s current menu before you go.

BBH is alright. Hoai Hue still hits the spot much better with their broth.

“One of my favorite spots for BBH (Bun Bo Hue) and Bun Rieu!”
Roger recommended bún bò Huế ordered with everything — pork blood included — plus the clam dish with shrimp crisps, and warned that it is cash only and has no air conditioning on hot days. Originally recorded from Roger's Google Maps profile with only an inferred 2022 date -- corrected once the same review (with photos) was found on Yelp, dated and sourced exactly.
Stay in the neighborhood
A Convoy District spot Roger rated among the better local options for xiao long bao and pan-fried sheng jian bao, with better-than-typical service to match.
A Kearny Mesa Vietnamese spot Roger praised for freshly made, generous portions — nothing mass-ordered frozen — plus made-to-order coffee and wings he ranks among the only two worth ordering at an Asian restaurant in town.
A low-key Convoy-area grocery Roger called a one-stop shop for a Chinese household: herbal remedies, dried seafood, nostalgic HK/China/Taiwan sodas and whole-leaf teas, tucked in a warehouse half a block west of Convoy.
