The Best Pho in Kearny Mesa & Convoy

A long-running Convoy Vietnamese restaurant with a broad menu and dependable pho.

Phuong Trang has been a Convoy fixture for decades. The pho is reliably good without topping the list, and the surrounding menu — grilled pork, spring rolls, com tam — is where the kitchen shines.

Read our full Phuong Trang review — scored 83/100 in our Best Pho in San Diego with pros, cons and what to order.

Local tip: Come with a group — the wider Vietnamese menu is stronger than the pho alone.

The Convoy sibling of the City Heights original, slightly less consistent but easier to reach.

Same recipe, marginally different execution. The broth still lands well above the county average, and for anyone north of I-8 it's the practical choice.

Local tip: Parking is far simpler here than at the City Heights location.

The dependable late option — open past 9pm when most Convoy pho shops have closed.

Nothing here will change your mind about pho, but the broth is honest, the room is clean and bright, and it stays open after the rest of Convoy has flipped the chairs. For a post-work or post-show bowl in Kearny Mesa, that alone earns the spot.

Local tip: Most Convoy pho kitchens shut by 8:30–9pm. Check hours before a late drive; this one runs later than most.
