    Picture looks much larger than it is. Size wise, it's average
    Shen T.

    Came here late as we drove in town to stay by the airport for a flight the next day. After checking in to the hotel, we almost went to Mexican as there were quite a few. But just few blocks further from our hotel was this place that was still open. We were the only one seated at this time as they had few others takeout. I got the combo pho, and wife got the chargrilled beef over rice. Pho, well, it was just ok. It had the proper amount of meat proportion to soup and noodles. It just wasn't quite there as the flavor was lacking a bit of that pho aroma expected. Now the chargrilled beef was spot on. The beef was tender and had a nice smoked aroma to it, but not too much to overpower the flavor of the beef. What I didn't know was the pho I ordered was about $3 or $3 more than what's listed on menu. I didn't notice it until after I left. For that, I felt cheated.

    Delicious And flavorful Pho

    I come to Port Arthur a few times a month for work and always stop here for lunch. It is so good. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. I've had several of the dishes, and they are all very good, but I really love the rare beef pho and shaking beef plate. It is very flavorful, well-priced and the restaurant is clean. This is a really great spot in SETX! 10/10

    Beautiful menu

    Newly opened and welcomed Vietnamese cuisine kitchen to the area. Daylight hours offer a well lit, open, nice and tidy dining area. Smooth jazz in the background adds a calming effect and perchance what the owner is seeking but will never be as long as the tvs are on and their volume turned up. Beautiful menu reveals about the same basic options as other local Vietnamese restaurants. The owner answered our questions and served up the spring rolls, rice and vermicelli dishes we ordered. Even though we dined at an early dinner/late lunch hour there were a few tables occupied by others as well - a sign that this place is off to a good start. Once sated we agreed we'll be back.

    Legit

    Very friendly and nice staff. I'm from Cali myself, specifically the San Gabriel Valley (626) where that area is mainly Asian, (Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Cambodian, Korean) so I have eaten an understand what real authentic is. And this place is pretty much right there. The only thing why I gave it 4 stars was the green tea is a powder. I'm used to fresh brewed Jasmine green tea flowers. The soup was legit. Veggies super fresh. They offer a buy 7 get 1 free on their teas. After speaking with the staff the owner and cooks are actually from California hence the Cali Kitchen name. Overall a nice experience.

    Crispy salted shrimp, one of the specials this week.

    Very quick service. The charbroiled pork pho is some of the best pho I've ever tasted. This restaurant is a staple during the cold months.
