Pho Saigon in Milpitas, CA on Landress just off 680 is a good place, good quality meat in their pho, quick, friendly family service. Cash only, but prices are good, too. I sometimes stop in if traffic is bad heading from SJC to the valley.

My very favorite Pho restaurant in Silicon Valley is Pho Vi Hoa on El Camino between Palo Alto/Los Altos/Mountain View. The best service ever in a Vietnamese restaurant, really tasty pho and great spring rolls.
