    Pho brisket on rye
    Charlie N.

    This place has been blowing up on social media and I had to come check it out, because if there's one thing about me, I love gimmicky fusion stuff. PARKING: Located in 4th street market. There's street parking as well as parking structures in the area, some of which offer free/discounted parking WHAT I ORDERED: Pho Brisket Sandwich THE SANDWICH: Honestly, I was simultaneously impressed and disappointed. For the most part, it's kind of what you would expect this sandwich to be. The meat was flavorful but a bit dry, and it definitely needed the broth. The broth was amazing, though - super flavorful and well-spiced. The cilantro and onions were also a nice touch. The culprit here though was the rye bread, which got soggy quick, even before dipping into the broth! I wish they used a harder bread, something like a baguette that can hold up to a broth better. I noticed their BBH sandwich uses a different bread so I wonder if that one's better. In terms of portion size, this was a pretty hefty sandwich and I think it could easily be split between two people. SERVICE: Pretty friendly and quick. VIBES: Good options for seating in 4th street market, especially the outdoor seating which is nice. Tons of food options too for if you're bringing a group and people are indecisive. BOTTOM LINE: Wasn't blown away by the sandwich, but I definitely do want to come back to try the actual pho and perhaps the Bun Bo Hue sandwich!

    Pho Brisket on Rye, Sandwich
    Jin H.

    I'm so sad that I see this place is permanently closed? This pho sandwich was probably one of the best sandwiches I've ever had! All the best flavors of pho packed into a sandwich! I don't know where I can get something like this in OC now

    Beyond confused on writing my review because so many people had such great things to say about it. For $17+ on a sandwich, I had really high expectations and they were definitely not met whatsoever. It took quite a while for my sandwich to come out and when I saw it, I was a little excited because it was packed with meat - however when I finally sat down and got to eating it, it was so dry and flavorless. The bread itself was so stiff and dry, the meats were dry - dipping it didn't really help except make it messier for me. I also added seasoned fries to my order and man, were they definitely seasoned... with salt. Not worth the time & price.

    Pho Brisket on Rye and The BBH (Spicy Beef Sandwich)....And Broth
    Vicky C.

    Located in the 4th Street Market food hall in Santa Ana, And Broth is probably one of the more exciting concepts currently there. Their menu primarily features a variety of pho, but you should definitely go there to check out their two specialty sandwiches. At first, I thought the sandwiches might be gimmicky. They're similar to a French dip: you get a sandwich paired with a cup of broth for dipping (which I assume is why the place is called "And Broth" in the first place). I tried both the Pho Brisket on Rye and The BBH (Spicy Beef Sandwich). The brisket sandwich was tender and flavorful, but the BBH stole the show with its bold, spicy kick. Both sandwiches are pretty good on their own, but dipping them in the broth takes them to the next level. (Seriously, why wouldn't you dip? The broth is phenomenal!) The flavors are on point, and the portions are generous, with plenty of meat in each sandwich. I haven't tried their pho yet, but if the broth is indicative of the flavors of their pho, I'm sure I would enjoy it as well. If you're looking for a unique twist on classic pho flavors, And Broth is a must-visit!

    DEE-LICIOUS! The Pho Beef Brisket Sandwich was scrumptious! I crave that sandwich often, and has shared how delicious it was with many people. It has the perfect balance of meat to veggies/herbs ratio (I do like mine for on the veggie side), flavor is packed with that pho broth taste, tender and juicy meat, and the perfect vehicle to hold it all together... the Rye Bread. I am not a fan of Rye Bread, but I loved this one! It comes with a side of bee pho broth to dip the sandwich in, which was very tasty. You have to also get the pickled jalapenos, they are not spicy but taste super good with the sandwich. I can't wait to come back here again. Thank you And Broth for providing a delicious Pho Beef Brisket Sandwich! :)

    Sarah O.

    Such a unique concept! Surprisingly we preferred the sandwich's over the actual pho . Very yummy! Will be back again for some pho sandwiches.

    I got the brisket sandwich and it was as advertised: delicious! It really tastes like a brisket sandwich had a baby with pho. I'd like to go back and try the pho, but it would be hard not to get the sandwich.

    Pho Brisket on Rye
    Stephen K.

    Absolutely amazing! Came here on a friend's high recommendation and I was not disappointed whatsoever. It's a small shop in a larger food hall, but don't let the size fool you. The flavors are huge! The brisket was extremely juicy and it matched so will with the pickled veggies and thinly sliced green onions. I would prefer more cilantros, but thats because I love the fragrance that cilantro has. The sandwich being on rye bread was such a great touch. If it was any other bread, I don't believe it would be able to withstand the juices, not to mention the broth you're encouraged to dip the sandwich in. You are free to drink the broth separately, but I recommend dipping the sando in the broth. The richness of the broth brings so much flavor especially when the broad soaks it all up. My only knock would be that the pickled radish and carrots aren't flavored as strongly as I prefer but it did its job: cleanse my palette. If there are not that many people before you, expect a short 10-12min wait before your belly is full and satisfied!

    BBH Sandwich
    Vivian N.

    Overall: 4.75 for unique food that was incredibly delicious and well flavored. The Service: Service was fast and efficient. We came around 1pm on a Sunday and there was no line. We waited about 10 minutes for our food. The Food: Pho Brisket Sandwich - This tasted divine! They captured all the pho flavor in the beef brisket and it was accompanied with all the herbs that go with pho, giving it a wonderful flavor. I also loved that it came with pickled onions which balanced out the fattiness of the brisket. One comment is that the bread does get soggy so do finish it quickly! It also comes with a side of the pho broth which you can dip in but I found that a bit messy since the sandwich is stuffed with the beef brisket so I just took sips of it on the side. The BBH Sandwich - As someone who loves bun bo hue, this was a perfect version of it in a sandwich. Similar to the pho brisket sandwich, this was stuffed to the brim with the tender and delicious beef and it had the herbs that go along with the Bun Bo Hue as well. It also had some pickled onions which helped cut through the fattiness. The bun bo hue broth that came with this was so flavorful and spicy, just the way I like it! The Santa Ana Pho - I am very particular with my pho so I really enjoyed this pho! It was served with so much different types of meat from tendon to ribs. I honestly wish there was tripe in the pho. The broth was flavorful and you can tell that it was cooked for a very long time. Price: The price is a bit pricier than most places, but I think the quality and uniqueness really shines. A bowl of pho is about $24 which is very pricey but the amount of pho with the noodles and beef can feed two people. The sandwiches are about $16-18 which is pricey for a sandwich but the taste and uniqueness was worth it. The Atmosphere: The restaurant is located in 4th Street Market which had plenty of seating when we went (both inside and outside). Parking: There is a parking structure behind the 4th Street Market that has free parking on weekdays and sometimes weekends I believe (it was hard to understand the sign....since it said only Saturday/Sunday evenings but we got free parking on a Sunday afternoon. There is also street parking but this is located in Downtown Santa Ana so it can be hard to find.

    Pho Brisket on Rye, Sandwich (Take Out)
    Misa O.

    YESSSS! Got the Pho Brisket Sandwich for takeout and my friend and I ended up eating it 2 hours later. Even so, it tasted amazing!!! Tender and juicy beef, accurate and strong pho flavor, and perfect ratio of ingredients. Tastes like a bowl of pho in sandwich form.

    Ann L.

    Finally tried the viral Pho Brisket Sandwich tucked inside the Santa Ana food court. Reminded me of a pastrami sandwich with its thick layer of briskets, onions, and basil leaves sandwiched between rye bread. It does also come with a side of broth which I wasn't so sure if I was suppose to dip the sandwich in or simply sip on the side. The sandwich was good but I still prefer the briskets in my pho. Not quite sure what I was expecting but it was quite interesting. Of note, the rye bread does get a bit soggy and the briskets do fall out some and can get messy. Overall it wasn't bad. Give it a try if you're in the area

    My husband and I had a date night and went to DTSA for dinner. I had seen And Broth all over my IG feed and was intrigued by their sandwiches. By the way, they also serve pho here with 24-hr broth. But they are infamous for their pho sandwich and their new BBH (Bun Bo Hue) sandwiches. If you know me, you know that I love pho but I also love the lesser known Vietnamese noodle soup dish known as BBH. No one makes as good a BBH as my mother but some places try. The BBH sandwich is a fusion food item and it's quite novel. It's similar to a French dip where it is a sandwich stuffed with protein (brisket and pork loaf), herbs, and pickled onions, served with a side of BBH broth. I was intrigued. After ordering, we were given a buzzer and waited at a nearby table. Once the order was ready, I went to pick it up at the window. The sandwich was stuffed and really photogenic. I took a bite and found that the brisket was really tender and that the herbs give the sandwich that essence of BBH. I liked that they used French bread and not rye for this too. Since I'm not personally a fan of eating chả lụa or pork loaf warm, I pulled those slices out and just ate the brisket sandwich. It was better that way. My husband took a few tentative bites but the rest was all mine. He thought it was different and liked that the brisket was tender. It was glorious and hit the spot. Thanks And Broth for introducing an innovative sandwich fusing Vietnamese and American flavors.

    Steep price for pho at almost $20 after taxes. Not much of service as you help yourself with pretty much everything. Accidentally tipped them 10 cents but couldn't make the connection. The broth is very flavorful and rich. However there just wasn't enough meat for my liking. And i don't eat a lot of meat.. Thai basil was pretty old and wilted. The food is not bad. I think it has a potential to be great. However, there are better options out there. I wouldn't be returning and can't be recommending this place to any one.

Massive parking lot so that was easy, one friend went ahead and let them know we had 10 incoming. They made room and we sat immediately. One of the spots that you scan a menu at the table and you review, order and pay all in the app. I was really not familiar with the line up and went with the "House Special Beef Pot Roodle" (Roodles are their rice noodles). It was a weekend only item and I tried that. The noodles came separate from the soup. Over all it was very tasty. The meat was a bit fatty and the soup had tendons too. I took that part home and my wife loved it. I tend to avoid the fatty meat and tendons are not good to me. 10 of us so some of the appetizers got passed around. The smashed cucumbers are excellent, and my buddy also got some friend potatoes of sorts, reminded me of a fat French fry. Because my buddy and I sat at the same table we scanned the same menu, he ordered a bunch of stuff and also House Special Beef Pot Roodle. That confused the kitchen and they asked me if I meant to order 2, I said no and didn't realize I cancelled my buddy's order. Part of the confusion of a large party and many scanned menu orders. My buddy was struggling to order and our initial waiter seemed to not understand my friend and that took a little bit to work out, young lady came from the back and was able to quickly resolve some of the confusion and get questions answered as needed. In the end he had lot of food to explore. One thing that caught my eye was several couples there and sharing a large soup item served with a tray of various food items for the soup. Kind of a date night visual and something that looked very interesting. Several couples around us had that same dish and its got me more curious. Might have to come back with my wife and try this one.

Polite, quick, and doing their best in a situation that could only be described as "culinary confusion." The food? I'm still trying to figure out what happened. The broth tasted like it was made by someone who's heard of seasoning but refuses to believe in it. The meat portion? I've seen more protein in a microwavable noodle cup. And then there's the very bold "better than pho" claim. Better than pho?? My brother in broth, that is delusion with confidence. And the price--$19! For that much, you can get a glorious XL bowl of pho elsewhere stacked with meat, loaded with herbs, and seasoned by someone who actually cares. Meanwhile, I took two bites here, sat in silence, reflected on my life choices, and walked out. The bowl stayed behind, untouched and unbothered. To make things even more tragic, I only ended up here because Whealthy Pasta next door opens late on weekends. Honestly, the biggest plot twist of my day. Great service, terrible food. Funny experience, but not funny enough to ever try again. This place disappoints!

To be fair, I grew up eating here and have returned about three times as an adult. Unfortunately, each visit has been worse than the last. The restaurant seems to have no motivation to improve. The place feels dirty, the food is mediocre, and the customer service is pretty terrible.

    Solid!! Besides My Phat, this is my favorite egg noodle/hu Tieu noodle restaurant! There are really…read moreonly a handful in OC that stand out, it's hard to find a good Hu Tieu place, this one is at the top of the list! Ordered the Hu Tieu Nam Vang, which is the clear noodles with seafood, pork, and wontons, and also came with the crunchy shrimp chip. I can say the noodles, broth, and proteins were all solid! I really enjoyed this dish! Also ordered the mi kho dac biet, which is the dry egg noodles with soup on the side. This came with fried wontons instead of steamed wontons like in the Hu Tieu, also came with the same proteins and the shrimp chip. I also really enjoyed this dish! Solid broth, noodles were not too chewy, proteins tasted delicious! I will definitely be back! My only complaint is that the pickled jalapeños in the container had a weird white coating, wasn't sure if it was mold, but wanted to be safe and threw it away.

    Woke up hungover after a night of heavy drinking. Typed in "cheapest noodles in OC" and this place…read morewas the first to pop up. After perusing through their menu and pictures, I noticed a photo of their homemade shrimp cracker, which caught my eye, so I had to check it out. **Pro Tip: They have a Happy Hour every day from 2pm-5pm offering 10% and each meal comes with a free canned soda ** I arrived exactly at 2 PM to find an empty dining room and ordered the House Special Egg Noodles (Mì Đặc Biệt). This dish typically comes in a broth, so if you're not in the mood for a soupy meal, be sure to ask for it "dry." I opted for the dry version because I wanted something different. I noticed that the wontons are prepared differently when you order them dry: they are deep-fried to make them crispy, while the soup version features boiled wontons. The dry option was served with a special sauce and a side of broth. The dish satisfied all my cravings, with a mix of seafood, BBQ pork, crispy wontons, and a giant shrimp cracker on top. I'm not entirely sure if I'm doing this right, but I once saw an elderly gentleman mix some satay and broth into his dish to create a sauce. Ever since then, I've enjoyed my dry noodles that way. The store itself wasn't particularly impressive in appearance, but that didn't matter because I was so focused on the meal. The owner was incredibly kind and attentive; she even turned on the portable air conditioning and made sure the airflow was directed towards me. They were enjoying their lunch at the other end of the room, which made me feel like I was part of a family meal. Overall, the meal was incredibly satisfying and fulfilled all of my cravings. They even provided me with a stamp card that offers a free meal after I purchase ten meals. The restaurant has only been open for a year and is a low-key spot that deserves more attention. I highly encourage others to check it out!

    Randomly decided to try this place with the wife last night…read more I remembered there being a spot called mogu mogu here prior and confirmed with the waitress that it's the same menu! Spicy miso ramen: 9/10 Actually one of the better ramens I've had lately. The broth is creamier and isn't overpowering with chicken/beef flavor. The chashu was nice and tender as well. I really liked that their noodles were al dente and not too soft Deluxe mazemen: 8/10 Taking my first bite, I was instantly greeted with an explosion of umami. There's a LOT of flavor packed in this bowl and the noodles used are actually a bit thicker which is right up my alley. My only drawback on this dish was that I wished it came with some sort of veggies to cut through all the flavor. They also give you a small serving of rice at the end for you to mix into the bottom which was a nice addition Kurobota sausage: 7.5/10 We've recently been on a kurobota craze. Don't get me wrong, these were great but we've only had them charred and grilled before so I was taken aback when I saw that these were only steamed. Flavor was spot on but I'm a sucker for a nice char or crisp to my meat Overall, loved the service and small restaurant vibe of this spot. We were seated very quickly and the food came out even faster. Definitely come try this spot, I know we'll be back

    Never had Mazemen before which is basically broth-less ramen with various of toppings. We were on…read morethe way to Kitakata, but after finding this place on Yelp, we had to check out the hype. The interior is cozy and small with authentic Japanese decorations/setup. Kinda felt like we were eating in Kyoto or something, lol. The lady who served us was friendly and gave us good recommendations. I think she was handling the whole operation to be honest. To start it off, we ordered their specialty chicken karaage and it was very delicious. It has a nice crispy and crunchy texture. The batter on the chicken was good and once you bite it, the meat is juicy and tender. Doesn't really need dipping since it's so good. As for the Mazemen, we ordered the Deluxe and Veggie one, both is a 5/5. Very flavorful and it tastes just like ramen, but without the soup. The presentation of the dish looks like a work of art. Very picture pretty. I ate that shit up within ten minutes. After that they give you a scoop of rice so you can mix it up with the leftover sauce. Lots of umami for sure. Definitely will come back again to try the other flavors. People, trust me and come through!
