It was so good we finished everything! Vermicelli noodles with egg roll and pork!
Cynthia A.

What pho and vermicelli should taste like. They were patient with a crying baby. Not bad if you come from knotts and needed Vietnamese food nearby.

Pho short rib
Cindy G.

This place is prob the best pho near me. The quality is great. Service is good. Food is delicious. I always get the pho but I've also tried the rice when my friends order it & it's also really good. I'm pretty picky with pho so I'm happy this place is right by my house.

Jasmine O.

Food was tasty, portions were great and waiter was helpful. Inside is clean and cozy.

Pho House Special
Robert N.

Usually, I always assume that the quality of phở restaurant directly depends on how far you are from Westminster/Garden Grove/ Fountain Valley area. The further you are from the epicenter, the lower your expectation should be. This appears to hold true for this establishment in Anaheim. There were still signs and decor from the previous business, which looks to be some sort of churros place. Other than that, the place is relatively clean, aside from a fee flies buzzing around. I would recommend the owner keeps the door close to keep those critters out. As for the food, the menu is fairly straightforward with some appetizer section, some phở selection, some bún (vermicelli) selection, and some rice dishes. I opted for the House Special phở and an iced tea. The bowl of phở was ok in temperature, although I prefer it to be hotter. The sliced rare beef was a little thick and actually was buried in the bowl and was well done. The broth was clear, however, was lacking that phở flavor, and salty for my taste. The brisket was a little chewy, and fhe phở noodles were definitely from the dried version and not the fresh version and was all clumped together. What was most shocking of all was the price. It looks like every little items are counted extras. The house special phở is $16. Apparently the blanched sprouts (giá chần) and vinegar onions (hành dấm) are extras. Add an iced tea and the total bill was around $22.50. To me, that is quite pricey... Overall verdict: if you're in west anaheim and in a hurry, but still crave for some phở, then perhaps this place can be that quick fix. Although, don't expect to be impressed. For me, I think I will take the extra 15 minutes drive to Bolsa area and go to one of the phở places there. It's worth the trip...

Wow I can't believe I didn't find out this restaurant sooner. Best Banh mi sandwich. Happen to know them from yelp and orders the sandwich for our group of pickleball friends it so delicious, all our friends love it, from flavor the fresh veggies and they packed in cool bags . The menu comes with many delicious items i want to try them all for next visit.

We ordered 3 different kinds of banh on DoorDash for my family and friends. We got the special pork, egg and chicken banh mí's. The bread was buttery crisp on the outside and fluffy on the outside.. the way authentic banh mi is supposed to be! The flavors of the proteins were amazing and all the veggies complimented each banh mi. Keep in mind, I live in Garden Grove (all around the banh mi spots). I will definitely come back for more!!!

Garlic Noodles Filet Mignon
Phong L.

Really good pho and garlic noodles. Taste is extremely clean. Steak was very tender. Staff is very patient with our toddler and the music is good.

Plain Pho
Tina W.

We came in during summer and loved that the place is clean and you feel the HVAC trying to keep up with the heat and make it comfortable ale for their patrons to dine in. Ordering was easy and food arrived quickly. My kids ordered a plain pho to share and I could barely get a photo off before they devoured it That, if anything, should tell you how good their food is. Definitely recommend stopping in for a quick, delicious meal!

Thai tea
Brigitte S.

Our household has had District 9 Kitchen twice in the last week! When picking up takeout, the restaurant has been busy but we picked up our order quickly and the staff was friendly. It isn't that big inside so it's a cozy spot to eat a laidback meal in, which we hope to do shortly. The food is really delicious! I'm vegetarian and they had ample offerings. I liked the tempura tofu and the vegan broth in the pho was very flavorful and aromatic. Next time I want to try the garlic noodles, I think those would be especially yummy with tofu! I think since they just opened they've been extra generous so we got a complimentary Thai tea which was good and the most adorable jar of chili oil (which I put into my pho to make it even yummier!). I will definitely be coming back and bringing friends!

Garlic Noodles Filet Mignon
Eber A.

Second time here. Love the garlic noodles! Staff checks on you often. Keep an eye out for promos. Chill vibes

Pork
Audrene S.

I had a great experience here! I ordered the charbroiled pork and the flavor was good. Portion size was decent as well. The service was incredibly friendly and fast, which made the experience even better. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu.

The food here is delicious, we'll be back! Fried Rice Shrimp

The food is so yummy here, we'll be back. We ordered the shrimp fried rice, pho, tempura green beans, and wings.

Pho Ribeye
Christine Yuna H.

District 9 seems to be a newer Vietnamese restaurant. Interior is nice and clean. We ordered the pho, but the ribeye was way too overcooked. The same situation happened for the vermicelli chicken. The chicken was way too overcooked. I would definitely try the golden baos again. Overall, not too bad, but this is definitely a restaurant that needs some work on cooking the meat.

This is my go-to place once the weather hits 95°. During the weekdays, this place is not crowded…read more The busiest times to go are Sunday afternoons! I always order the Cold Arrowroot Noodles. The taste of the vinegar and mustard always leave me salivating. The mustard helps to clear your nose, so be careful not too put too much at once! The noodles are uber chewy, so make sure to take up their offer of cutting the noodles before you eat. The kimchi here is so good they actually sell the kimchi to take home and enjoy. Despite giving both red and white kimchi while dining in person, the white kimchi will always be my favorite. The white kimchi is not spicy, but still has the hallmark vinegar taste with the crunch I've come to expect. This place is very generous with the kimchi- don't be afraid to ask for another small plate of kimchi! This place has a modern vibe, with the beige and white tones. The tables themselves are equipped with a pull-out drawer than includes spoons, chopsticks, and napkins. This allows for quick efficiency when getting seated! Definitely a go-to in sunny Southern California!

I got the green chlorella noodles, which was definitely something different for me. The noodles were really tender and good, and I liked all the toppings that came with them. Everything tasted fresh and the banchan was good too. I think I realized that cold noodles just aren't necessarily my go-to. That's more of a personal preference though, because the food itself was good. If you already like Korean cold noodles, I think you'd really enjoy this place. Glad I tried something new. 7/10

I commented that No one came Around to offer refills of water, and the team needed to engage in better customer service. In turn the male stated that He did not like My attitude and Claimed I was being disrespectful. Every comment and criticism I had made was Followed By sarcasm on his part, as he was Unable To accept criticism constructively. I warned him if he keeps up with his behavior, I would not return to this restaurant. Independent of my comments, my Partner agreed with my negative experience. Roger felt that the vibe in the place has been deteriorating and That The overall quality of the place has gone way down. To the management and ownership, you all Have significant problems here, and your Business will go way down to the point where your restaurant will struggle to stay open.

Mind you, they don't close until a few hours later. Went in to order takeout and there were a few dishes we wanted that they didn't have available; oxtail noodle soup and pork knuckle noodle soup. They came to tell us twice for each individual item. We had to opt for other noodle dishes which weren't bad. They were actually good. But not what we went for. Instead we got the beef stew noodle soup for my son which smelled really flavorful and he said was good. I got some sort of Taiwanese noodle soup that was on the front page of the menu that looked good and tasted great as well. It came with a bunch of assorted proteins such as hard boiled egg, tendon, tripe, stewed meats. It was a spicy noodle dish which I loved. I will most likely get it again next time. Their chili oil sate is actually really spicy and has that kick so I appreciated that since most places are not spicy. The portions were also pretty big; each order was good enough for 2 bowls. We enjoyed our noodle soups but still want to go back what we anticipated.
