1. Green Leaf

Right next to the Century Movie theaters in downtown Redwood City is the Green Leaf Asian Bistro. The food is delicious, very reasonably priced and the atmosphere is quiet. The Bahn Mi sandwiches are delicious, super fresh baguette, your choice of protein and grated carrots and special sauce. Jalapeno slices are optional. It is a very relaxing place to eat, many of the nearby restaurants are chaotic. Highly recommended

This is a really no frills pho place. They have all the normal pho options, banh mi sandwiches, and standard drinks you can find at most Vietnamese restaurants. The pho itself is ok. There's nothing spectacular about the broth and it hits the spot as a warm bowl of noodles when it's cold out. There doesn't seem to be a large difference between regular and large sizes aside from the bowl size and amount of soup and meats but it could just be my imagination.

I've recently moved to Redwood City and went to Hometown Pho after seeing the reviews here. It is located on Middlefield Road, amongest Mexican/Latino shops. You can park on the street, but the carpark can get full during busy hours such as dinner time. Waitstaff service was fast and friendly, and the pho and other dishes (summer rolls, rice dishes etc) were authentic. Prices are reasonable (under $10 for most dishes). I've been back just about every week, sometimes for takeout rice noodles.
