Our Story

From the streets of Saigon to your neighborhood

Our family in the kitchen

A Family Tradition

Pho Com Tam Vietnamese Cuisines started with a dream and a family recipe book. Our founders grew up in the bustling streets of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), where food is not just sustenance — it's a way of life, a gathering point, and an expression of love.

From the early morning pho carts to the late-night com tam stalls, every meal in Vietnam tells a story. We brought those stories with us when we opened our doors, determined to share the authentic flavors of our homeland with our new community.

Today, our kitchen is still guided by the same principles: use the freshest ingredients, prepare everything from scratch, and treat every guest like family.

Our Craft

The Broth: Our signature pho broth starts with quality beef and chicken bones, slow-simmered for over 12 hours with charred ginger, onion, star anise, cinnamon, and cloves. There are no shortcuts — just time, patience, and tradition.

Com Tam: Broken rice has humble origins — once considered the "lesser" grains, it's now the soul of southern Vietnamese comfort food. We grill our pork chops over charcoal, prepare our chả (egg meatloaf) fresh each morning, and mix our fish sauce by hand daily.

Fresh Herbs: No Vietnamese meal is complete without a plate of fresh herbs — Thai basil, cilantro, saw-leaf herb, mint, bean sprouts, and lime. We source these daily to ensure maximum flavor and fragrance in every dish.
