    Berry smoothie and green tea lychee
    Adrianna V.

    I would definitely recommend coming back during happy hour. I had a craving for a summer roll. I had shrimp with mine. Also they typically provide fish sauce so I asked for a peanut sauce imo way better. It tasted fresh and shrimp was plump and refreshing. I would order that again. They also have a bogo during happy hour..being non alcoholic beverages, I ordered a green tea lychee and a berry smoothie. Those were pretty good a bit on the sweet side but to be expected. Service was great and was provided all the essentials. Lots of seating as well.

    Cute little restaurant. Pho as well as stir-fry and noodles. Clean inside and friendly service. Prices are decent. You order at the counter and take a number and are served at the table. The food tasted really good. We had the Garlic Butter shrimp and Lemongrass Chicken with fried rice. They also serve wine and beer. I will definitely eat there again.

    I have been interested in trying Pho since I've never had it before. I have to say I'm so glad I chose this place as my introduction! I ordered Pho from this restaurant on DoorDash and it came deconstructed, fresh and hot, which I appreciated! I got pho with chicken and the chicken/beef broth. The broth mixed with the herbaceous flavor of the mint and green onion was simply amazing. I don't know what took me so long to get hip to Pho but I'm a fan! This will definitely be on my go to spot list.

    Just moved to LB from OC which honestly changes you palate when it comes to Asian food. I was feeling a litlle under the weather so I ordered take out. The food was ready on time and the ingredients were fresh, but the pho was very mediocre. The meat was high quality but i could tell that the broth was alright. The price was cheaper compared to OC but it tasted more like soup than actual pho in my opinion.

    Chicken pho
    Lauren K.

    A decent spot for pho and noodles. I only ordered takeout so I cannot speak on the dine in experience! I wouldn't say it's super authentic or the best pho in town but it definitely helps with your cravings! I like the shaking beef garlic noodles though I think it's a bit greasy/salty and the noodles are too thin for garlic noodles. However still tasty! The chicken pho is decent but fairly bland. The eggrolls are good and crispy. Food: 6/10 Parking: 7/10 (street parking always available) Takeout: 8/10 (always fast for pickup) Environment: 8/10 (right in downtown, fun spot, dog friendly, outdoor and indoor seating available, never too busy)

    My Summer Rolls minus one of course ... this was so light and yummy
    Thelia M.

    Never have complaints... the girls are alway sweet and the food is always fresh. I don't come here often, but when I do get a chance, the flavors are always the exact same, nothing changes and that a bonus for me! There's plenty of seating in the restaurant and there's a bar and tv screens. Come check it out you won't regret it.

    Nice dining area

    So today's Friday 4/17/26 7pm. Went in to order the buy one get one free shaking beef special as they advertised on Facebook advertisement only to be told that it's not good for today only up till Thursday no where does it indicate that on the advertisement which I have included in my photos. So was disappointed that I had to pay for two shaken beef plates with noodles that did not come with a salad as the picture show and I explained to the waiter he said that we didn't get a salad cuz we did not order the rice, what? Nowhere did it indicate that on the menu either, I guess he thought about it and came back with a salad for me and my husband to share and apologized. So into the meal the beef was tasty however the noodles were soaked in grease I didn't know how bad it was till I looked down at my shirt and my husband's shirt and saw all kinds of grease on our clothes that dripped off the noodles. The noodles were good but I don't believe all that grease was necessary as you can see in the photos it comes with green onions the sauce on it was tasty just not good or healthy with all that oil on it.

    Saigon salad with chicken
    Sue H.

    Lunch was just ok. This restaurant is modern and attractive with clean restrooms and friendly servers. I am just not a fan of their version of Vietnamese cuisine. My Saigon salad noodle bowl had giant shrimp chips on top, and lots of dark meat chicken. Unremarkable though. Husbands lemongrass chicken had lots of dark meat chicken and a big pile of rice. Filling but unmemorable. Many examples of this cuisine include some vegetables with this dish, but not here. No side salad, no fish sauce vinaigrette for dunking. Don't think we'll be back, unless nothing else is open.

    Not the best vermicelli. We got the pho and the chicken vermicelli and both were subpar... unsure if they were even using the correct noodles. Fish sauce was not fishy enough. Pho broth was... alright, but it wasn't authentic, not enough spices or beef flavor. I think it's good for convenience, staff is also very friendly, but that's about it.

    The pho bowl with brisket and rare flank
    Chris Y.

    I'm a big pho fan! This place has many options to enjoy. When you walk in just look to the right and walk right over and order. With the pho you get 3 protein choices and I opted for one brisket and two helpings of rare flank and it was worth it!! Then when you get your number you'll get to enjoy a huge selection of seating The portions are amazing!!! I loved the flavor and how filling it was! Great seating and cheap parking available.

    Pho with tendon
    Debbie W.

    Order Pho with beef tendon and the protein was all fat, slimmy and disgusting. Tendon at other Pho restaurants is not like this. More fat than meat.

    This is how hard the beef is.
    Leo Z.

    This is how hard the beef is. The price was decent. Very affordable place. Do not order the popcorn chicken tho.

    Banh Mi
    Yuri J.

    Viet food with a twist! A cute spot in Long Beach for your Viet food cravings. The vermicelli rolls are delicious , stuffed with lemongrass pork and comes with a fish/peanut sauce that is quite refreshing and flavorful! It's a cool and fun concept to customize your own pho - the broth is warm and a lil sweet. The lemongrass pork plate was perfect with a fried egg and the fish sauce & salad. My fav was the pork banh mi - superrrr flavorful and filling. Food was overall on the sweeter side.

    Are the crispy baos vegan if we choose vegetarian filling?

    How late do they deliver?

    They stop delivering at 10:30 sweetheart. A good rule of thumb is, put in an order between 10 & 10:15pm.

    Do they mention whether they use MSG?

    Glutamate is almost in everything you eat. Funny how this xenophobia myth still lives. MSG is nothing more than protein mixed with salt. Glutamate is extracted from fruits and vegetables and is crystallized with sodium to stabilize the compound.… 

    Do they have any rice noodles?

    The pho noodles and vermicelli noodles are rice noodles.

Before leaving, I specifically asked the employee to confirm that everything was included in the order. She assured me there were three bags and that everything was there. When I arrived at my meeting, I discovered that three custom bowls were missing. For an order of this size and value, this level of carelessness is unacceptable. I reached out to Blue Bowl and gave them the opportunity to make this right, but they refused to rectify the mistake. Poor customer service is one thing, but failing to take responsibility after being given the chance to resolve the issue is even more disappointing. I expected much better from a business that charges premium prices. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I can't recommend Blue Bowl.

It was so good that I came back the very next day on Sunday to get the same thing. Unfortunately, I couldn't even consume my order the second day. I ordered the green machine smoothie which was absolutely phenomenal the first day the second day it was an entirely different color and crazy sour taste. The front end person making my drink told me that this was due to the differing amounts of spinach each person makes it with. The crazy thing was this second smoothie wasn't green like the first day so how does less spinach make it sour?? Honestly it seemed like the milk went bad and they didn't want to say anything. They didn't remake my drink and seemed offended when I asked clarification on why it was an entirely different color and taste. (Included in pictures) Those things aside the chocolate donut was phenomenal and I did really love my experience on Saturday. Sunday just left such a horrible taste (literally) in my mouth that I wouldn't be back. *Edited to show "green machine" not just "green smoothie" as previously stated.
