Reviews for PhoSure in San Francisco, CA
Viet-Chinese home cooking with a SE Asian influence? Comfort at all levels. N1 Signature is unlike normal Pho. Heavy with bean... sprout and chopped meat. Reminds me of a Thai/Singaporean noodle soup. I would ask for half the sprouts. P7 Shandong RiceNoodle Roll + pork+thousand year egg porridge. An entree sized "cherng fun", ft scrambled egg, minced meat, Napa cabbage. Theporridge is AAA. Guaranteed comfort, like a blanket for your soul... A3 Among the best Imperial rolls of all. The fry, thecontent mix, the cuts. Read more
Pretty nice restaurant specialized in Chaozhou food, which is part of Cantonese food (I think). The Changfen (steamed rice roll)... and oyster cake are so great! Had never found another restaurant that makes these in US before. They should really considerchanging their name at least bragging more on the Chaozhou food! Read more
Super tasty and authentic! Highly recommended
The garlic noodles is very good! Also love their hot and sour Lai fun soup. Just wish they have the regular vietnamese noodles... with the chicken noodles soup. Read more
Delicious and very authentic teochew steamed rice rolls. The ingredients are fresh and the staff is really friendly. I will... definitely be back more often. Read more
PhoSure updated their menu to include a few Chao Zhou, Teochew or Tri?u Châu, depending on how you pronounce it, dishes. I had... the chao zhou oyster cake $15.50 and pork chop chao zhou "braised" noodles $17.50 (not to be confused with chao zhou "dry"noodles). Their version of the chao zhou braised noodles had a thick peanut sauce draped over it. It smelled wonderful. Itincludes a huge bowl of soup containing beef, fish balls, lettuce, onion, shrimp, sprouts and tofu. As far as I know, this isthe only restaurant in San Francisco that serves this dish. The little pork chop was not bad. Next time I probably wouldn'torder it with the pork chop. The noodles and soup was more than enough for one meal. The chao zhou oyster cake is more of anomelette with oysters in it. The oysters blended well with the egg taste and is very unique. I was expecting more of a flourbased cake with an onion taste. Service was excellent. Great job chef at PhoSure for cooking up some authentic chao zhou dishes. Read more
One of the few places in the bay to buy teochew food! The owners are from Shantou and they're super friendly. The oyster pancake... and steamed rice roll are to die for. Read more
Heard some great things about this place so I decided to give it a try with some friends. It's quite cozy and clean inside, and... the staff members were welcoming and helpful, especially the owners who enthusiastically helped us navigate through the menu.After all, Chinese Chao Zhou cuisine is pretty rare in this area and new to many. We ordered their signature Chao Zhou PanFried Oyster Cake, Shrimp & Pork Shantou Steamed Rice Roll, Beef Ball Soup and Shantou Duck Porridge, all served quickly andlooked super appetizing. The oyster cake was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and there was a generous amount ofoysters which tasted fresh. The rice rolls look like semi-transparent enchiladas stuffed with shrimp, pork, eggs and wow werethey good. I particularly liked the rice sheets since they were so soft, slippery and chewy, and paired well with the savorysweet sauce. The beef balls had this fine, smooth texture, almost bouncy. Last but not least, the duck porridge was quitewarming and nourishing. I think the price is fair for the quality and amount of food, as well as the great ambience andservices. All in all I'm very delighted we came across this little gem. It was money well spent and I'll FOR SURE (no punsintended) be back sooner than later! Read more
