This is a super legit pho spot in Long Beach. It's deceptively larger inside than it looks and as…read moreis typical of pho joints, service is very quick so you can get in and out. Order at the table, enjoy your food and pay at the counter. They have plenty of variations of pho, but I like to stick with the classic Pho Tai. Their broth was wonderful with or without the additions on the table. I like that you can choose your size. I went with the medium which was a good size for me, but the small wasn't too much different and I think that would have been fine as well. We added on a Chinese Donut which we dipped in the broth. It was a fun addition and pretty large, so you can split it between 2 people. The Shrimp and Pork Spring Roll didn't impress me so I would skip it next time. I don't know how I am just now finding out about this place but it's going to be my new go-to for pho in the area.

Such a hole in the wall pho spot in Long Beach! It also felt very family owned as it felt like…read morethere was a daughter to mom dynamic when I was there. I might be wrong though lol. It's located on the corner of a building off of Anaheim Street and walking distance to Good Time. I got their pho tai and loved it, they put a lot of meat in there and the broth was really good. Put bean sprouts in and boom it was delicious. I got the medium sized and it was the right amount for me but would get the large one next time. Would recommend this spot if you are in the area. Definitely one of my top spots for pho in Long Beach now, sucks because it closes at 5 so you can only get a lunch or late lunch out of Pho Hong Phat!

But it doesn't matter bc it was SOOO GOOD, Creamy buttery soft and slightly crispy Then the grilled pork (thit nuong) was okay pork belly was way better.

Prepare to have your taste buds dazzled at this hidden gem! Oh, the Banh Mi cravings were hitting us hard on a Saturday. But here's the catch: all the Banh Mi places had already called it a day. What a buzzkill! Thankfully, we uncovered this secret treasure trove! The calamari was a flavor party, the spring rolls were pure deliciousness, and the BBQ Pork Banh Mi? It rocked our world! The staff? Absolute rockstars! Their customer service was beyond top-notch. The restaurant was very clean as well!

The dining room is clean and modern with a full bar and comfortable seating. Service was generally fine, though a simple request for more water took noticeably long while I was eating hot food. Thai dim sum arrived dry and nearly flavorless; the accompanying sauce didn't help. The Pad Kee Mao was equally under-sauced. I sent it back and asked for additional Golden Mountain, oyster, and soy sauce. It returned unchanged. I added the entire dish of prik nam pla myself and still found the noodles lacking the depth those sauces should provide. The only dish that worked was the satay (listed as Satae). The beef was well seasoned and properly grilled; the peanut sauce was merely adequate. I may stop in later for a drink if the hotel bar is expensive, but I will not order food here again and did not take any leftovers.

American Chinese menu with nearly every menu item expected from one, in addition to some boba teas. I ordered the Combination Fried Rice, a common menu item.

The cook in the back did give me a friendly wave when he was done preparing my food and that was as friendly touch. The food was packaged securely in a takeout container with napkins, a packet of sriracha, soy sauce, and a fork but no spoon. I took my lunch back to my hotel room. It would've been easier if I had a spoon but overall it was tasty and met expectations. As I am in Long Beach on conference, I don't know if I'll ever get to Wa Wa again but I'd certainly recommend it for a quick takeout lunch if you're in the area!

I…read morehate that 18 bucks is an entirely reasonable amount of money to charge for one Thai entree these days, being I remember a time it would've been literally half that, so it was great when a few days ago we were looking to order a quick dinner for pickup through Doordash, originally planning on using a 25%-off coupon, until saw a new Thai place was offering BOGOs on several popular items, including their Thai tea and our favorite Thai noodle dish, pad se ew, which was obviously better than 25% off. So we each got a pad se ew, and I drank a a Thai tea and saved the other one, sans ice, for later. Whether or not they'll still be running a BOGO , but they were an entirely reasonable amount of food to be an entree, and that is just market price for a quality entree these days; I can't live in 2015 forever, unfortunately. I'd definitely buy Thai food here *more* if they kept running BOGOs, though. Anyway, other than being $18, everything about the pad se ew we got was great. Well, maybe it could've used a tiny bit more Chinese broccoli, but I'm happy to report, it *was* Chinese broccoli (a pet peeve of mine, supposedly-Thai places that use American broccoli, a much-inferior vegetable to gai lan), the pork was great, the noodles were perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and a decent sized amount. And, unlike the last couple times I've picked up a Doordash order from Thai District... it was actually ready to be picked up when Doordash told me to pick it up (not too long after ordering), instead of telling me it was ready quickly but then having me wait another 20 minutes once I got there :p. I was totally happy to have gambled on a new place. Thai Tea was also great. No complaints about it, a regular sized Thai tea. Again, $6 being a regular price *feels* wrong to me, but doesn't appear to actually be wrong these days. Or at least, it *is* wrong that everything's this expensive now, but that isn't Thai Rim Naan's fault. $6 for *two* quality Thai teas is of course a much better deal, if they happen to be running that deal when you read this, and you have a use for two Thai teas. :p
