Read the review, saw all the photos and also menu. We had to try this place. We ordered the following items: Drinks: Lychee Lemonade - Excellent and very refreshing. You can taste the lychee and hint of lemonade. They put some puree lychee and a whole lychee in the drink as a garnish. Mango Dragon fruit Tea - Very tasty and fresh. Packs lots of flavor, you can taste the mango and the hint of dragon fruit. Garnish with a mint sprigs and a dehydrated blood orange. Food: Spicy Won Ton - Won Ton was wrapped in a thin wrapper and the filling is excellent. Lots of flavor and a light kicked from the chili sauce. Mushroom and Rib-eye stir fry over rice - beef and mushroom cooked perfectly together, beef was super tender. Shaken beef with Garlic Noodle - Beef was packed with flavor and the garlic noodle was good but needed more flavor, not enough garlic but still good. The staff are very tentative and super friendly. The restaurant is nice and clean. We got there early so we did not have to wait. We defiantly will return when we are back in SoCal.

As customers, we should be patient and show empathy because they truly work hard to give everyone a good experience.

It's in a…read morehuge shopping plaza and there's plenty of parking :) the line was a bit long during lunch on a Saturday early afternoon (1:15pm) we waited for about 25 minutes before getting a table for 4 with two high chairs in the middle. We ordered the pho combination that was recommended by our server and it was really good. The rib was more tender then I anticipated. It literally fell right off the bone and was moist and juicy. All the other meats were pretty good. It felt like the portion could of been a bit more especially with the tendons. Overall: great service, yummy pho, the only place in this huge plaza that had a long wait (because it's really good), def coming back again if we're in the area.

Connor, the front host, was accommodating and direct about the waitlist times for seating and I appreciate his promptness on calling incoming guests on the Yelp List per their busy lunch rush. Jake, our server was quick to take our orders and ensured she'd love the food as a first timer here. I ordered the Lychee Black Tea to start and she ordered the Coco Sugarcane, both were sweet and refreshing--perfect for summer weather. Aiming for a light lunch, both of us ordered our set of spring rolls, which consisted of the Grilled Pork and Shrimp, and then the Rib Eye Rolls. The grilled spring rolls were tasty, savory with the complimentary sauce added a wholeness to meals. The Rib Eye rolls on the other hand had a savory complexity to it as the dipping sauce was sour and acidic, but it went well with the ribeye meat's sweetness. (I recommend going easy when dipping the ribeye roll into its accompanying sauce. My friend is definitely going to be coming here for lunch breaks.

Arguably one of the best pho places in my opinion. I think this place is older than I am, because…read moreI've been coming here since I was a baby! Over all those years, they have never disappointed me and continue to serve really good food. I usually get the beef brisket pho and it's really good. The noodles are just the right texture, the broth is clean and flavorful, and the meat tastes fresh and tender. Their dui bo is also very good, but usually runs out after 1:00 or 2:00 pm, since they only have a limited amount of this item every day. The meat is fall off the bone tender and has a more fatty flavor to it. It usually sits in some broth that absorbs that beefy and fatty flavor from the bone. A great addition to any bowl of pho. Alternatively, I sometimes also get the bun thit nuong and it's very good. The eggrolls it comes with is wrapped with rice paper, so when it's fried up, it has such a satisfying crunch and texture to it. The thit nuong is has a nice smokey, grilled flavor to it. The shrimps are okay as well. This is a very satisfying and filling dish, so if you're looking for a high volume dish, this may be the one to get. Expect long lines during peak hours. I can confirm though that the wait is worth it! Service is always very good. The ambiance on the inside is fine, very plain and unassuming in my opinion. It's really the pho that shines through at this restaurant. Parking can be a little tricky during peak hours.

The best pho in OC hands down…read more Came in Sunday afternoon for lunch, lots of parking but busy! Be prepared for parking and maybe to wait. Put your name on the list hanging outside the door and they will call you when ready! We were sat almost immediately though. Inside is a large scale mom and pop shop that is FILLED with people and workers. We ordered a medium and large #23 pho and 2 waters, we got everything not even 5 minutes later. When I tell you this is the BEST broth I've ever had, it blew me away. I'm not one to usually order extra noodles but for this place I would order as many noodles until I ran out of broth, it is that good. Noodles were on the soggier side, I'm not picky about noodles but if you are then this is something to consider. Portions were huge for the price, very happy with that. CASH ONLY. I didn't see an ATM there but I'm sure they had one. Will always recommend and they have a new customer for whenever I'm in OC.

We prefer this location compare to the other one because it has faster service, quieter romantic atmosphere and polite attentive staff.

My mom got ASMR-worthy crispy egg rolls in her bun cha gio. My dad got not one, not two, but THREE short ribs with bones in his pho suon bo!!! My only regret is not getting a drink.

Everything tastes incredible and I feel that even non vegetarians can enjoy their food. The Bo luc lac was superb, the sauce was sooo delicious. Honestly if I can take a jar of that sauce they used to make the shaken beef, I'd pour it over everything lol. They used a ton of watercress though and I'm not the biggest fan of watercress. I understand it's a salad but damn the ratio of watercress to "beef" is insane. The salt and pepper shrimp was also good and the sauce that paired with it had a spicy kick! They've got a big menu so I def want to come back to try their other items! Service was great. Everyone was very helpful and communicative and appreciated any feedback we had. Felt very welcoming!

Many dishes I've tried I would get again. The dining area is cozy with plenty of booth and table seating. The staff and service are always friendly and attentive. If you're adventurous with food or you are vegetarian/vegan, there are plenty of choices depending on what you're craving. From soups to rice dishes, vegan and raw entrées you won't find anywhere else. Most of the "meat" textures are pleasant and close to the real thing. A few of my current favorites: * Chicken Lemongrass has been my go-to and one of the cooked dishes I'll recommend for anyone who still eats meat. Comes with salad and black rice. * Wonton Soup has a clean, yet flavorful mushroom broth without being heavy. The wonton is tender with soy protein and mushrooms inside. * Humanese (Living Soup) is creamy and smooth with a pleasant flavor. * Yellow Noodles were a delicious bowl of light yet savory mushroom broth, fresh ingredients, a mix of vegan proteins, and thin noodles. * BBQ "Pork" Roll is a light starter with a tasty peanut sauce. * Salt & Peppered "Shrimp" - I enjoyed this, and the texture is close to an actual shrimp * The Paella is a pleasant and tasty surprise, with big slices of avocado and a blend of fresh, clean ingredients. * Bun No.35 is a refreshing, hearty dish that fills you up without feeling heavy. Pour the vegan fish sauce over the ingredients and mix well! * Curried Rice has a cool presentation, and the live food and fresh ingredients are delicious and filling. A few of my friends also enjoyed this dish. * Green Papaya Salad is a nice shareable classic dish with fresh ingredients, and the spice level is mild to medium. Elixirs, juices, teas, and smoothies can satisfy your taste buds and your body. Vegan desserts are also worth a try. Recently, they added vegan cakes! I'm looking forward to returning and trying more dishes!
