    House pho
    Kassandra S.

    Came here for some good authentic pho & we were not let down. It was so delicious & had lots of noodles. The meat was cooked beautifully. It was quite busy when we came for dinner around 4pm, but we were sat quickly. The ambiance was medium noise level. The restaurant wasn't as clean inside & the bathrooms were a bit dirty Nonetheless the food was delicious!

    5 Stars!!!! This little hole-in-the-wall pho spot has been my go-to. The house pho is soooo delicious. The broth is perfect. The noodles are perfect. The meat is perfect. You can count on this place to never miss the mark.

    A small vietnamese pho restaurant in Korean town. Food was good and service was wonderful. Our server Thao was very friendly.

    I was feeling a little under the weather so decided to get a good bowl of Pho. Ktown Pho was def able to satisfy my cravings without driving to SGV. I ordered the Seafood pho, the broth was amazing but they were a lil skimpy of the seafood. That would be my only critique. Otherwise go check them out!

    Delicious pho with perfectly springy noodles. I had the seafood in vegan broth and it truly hit the spot. There are various options, including for vegans. Service was polite and helpful. The atmosphere was calm and quiet when we arrived, but got busier at the lunch rush. It's a little confusing getting in from Western Ave. We were unsure if it was the entrance for the restaurant or the dog shop. Just keep walking back and you'll find it.

    K Town Pho was very yummy!

    The pho ga was a nice and light broth with good flavors, good noodles texture, and good overall toppings and ingredients. The service was attentive and polite, the interior was a medium sized restaurant with good amount of seating, and it was pretty good overall. I didn't know there was peanuts in the chili oil so I had a bit of an allergic reaction, but it was small enough to warrant no commotion/ no complaints. Please put a sign that it has peanuts in it

    Best Pho I've had in Los Angeles! I typically come here with my friend I always order the chicken pho and the broth is so delicious. It's a pretty small establishment but that doesn't take away from how delicious the food is! I will always come back to Ktown Pho for my monthly fix.

    Pork banh mi
    Sierra J.

    Stopped into Ktown Pho because I was craving a banh mi. I believe it's only street parking but luckily I was able to snag a spot nearby. The restaurant is very casual and gives off "hole in the wall" vibes. I ordered the pork banh mi and it was delicious! I really loved that the meat had no chewy or fatty pieces and the bread was perfectly fresh. My only complaint is that I wish the sando had a bit more meat, but at $10 I can't complain! I'm already looking forward to the next time I come back, as I could smell the pho broth need to try it asap!

    Sooo crazy good!!! Not sure why still an unknown sleeper but cannot argue how tender soft and delicious the meat quality here!!! Portions have definitely shrank but staff and ownership are still super nice and accommodating!! Highly recommended!! Street parking recommended but they do have an oddly shaped super busy back parking lot!!

    House Special Pho

    Came here for my birthday. Cute no frills pho place that gets busy very quickly. Pho is amazing and doesn't taste like spices looked at some water

    A small pho restaurant located in Korean town, hence, the name! Everyone there is extremely welcoming, service was wonderful. The pho portion is extremely generous, so I do recommend you go on an empty stomach. I live that you can request for extra toppings and they aren't stingy! Broth is rich in flavor and they have all the sauces to add to your liking. Now that's it's getting cold out, I will be visiting more often. Parking is a bit of a hassle, but you can find street parking depending on the day and time you go.

    House Special Pho

    My friend and I got the House Special Pho and it was great. Friendly service and relaxed atmosphere. Looking forward to returning

    Oxtail Pho Duoi Bo
    Azy G.

    I have dined here a few times and it hits every time! This is definitely the best in all of Koreatown and the broth flavors are always so rich. I've had oxtail, ribeye, and chicken pho from here and all were amazing, service is great too! It is a chill small spot with a nice vibe. It's a bit small inside and Friday nights + weekends expect a wait -- just know it's worth it everytime.

    It's very possible that this is the world's best chicken noodle soup. Rich and pure chicken flavor,…read moreperfectly chewy knife-cut noodles that likely cook in the stock so the starch releases to give it a beautiful texture. Also got the oyster porridge. Very solid dish, but that kalguksu reigns supreme. Valet parking in the lot will run you $5-6, and the best time to go is within an hour of opening. The place fills quickly. The team works efficiently to turn tables without making you feel rushed. Highly recommended.

I tried coming 15 minutes before opening on a Sunday during lunch time and that helped a lot! Would recommend coming during the day if you want to avoid waits. Some of our favorites: -Chicken Kalguksu: I get this every time! The broth is amazing, have never had such a rich, flavorful chicken broth before. You can taste all the herbs, seasonings, and time they took to prepare. The broth is a little on the thicker end, but super filling. -Seafood Kalguksu: the broth is so flavorful and it comes filled to the brim with all types of seafood! The spice actually pairs really well with the seafood too. If you want a spicy stew, this is it! Noodles are thick and chewy too. -Bossam: so yummy! I wish I could get it more often but it's a huge portion, so come with a group so you can try it and the noodles! Everything is quality- the bossam slices, the lettuce, the toppings on the wide. Chefs kiss! My only small gripe is the portions are so big that when I come with one other person, we only have the stomach capacity to eat two dishes! Always excited to come back and try more.

    Had a great experience at Sulga House of Beef Bone Soup…read more Their beef bone soup is simple, clean, and really solid, the kind of comfort food that just hits right for the soul. They currently have a great deal at $12, which makes it even better value for what you're getting. The sullungtang comes with rice, soup, and two types of kimchi. Service was friendly and efficient, and the whole experience felt easy and satisfying. Place was chill, not too overly crowded. I've noticed a lot of people ordering other dishes every time I go, so I'm definitely looking forward to trying more of the menu, but I keep coming back for the basics because it's just that good.

    Sulga was definitely THE place to be for a warm bowl of bone broth on a rainy night. My friend and…read moreI stopped by for doganitang (for two), and the portions were indeed large - for four. We also added beef brisket since my friend wasn't a big fan of cartilage - more for me! The pot itself wasn't too deep, though there was a good portion of protein cartilage. Also important to note that rice was NOT included! The brisket add on came as a pre-cooked brisket that was added in after, as it didn't initially fit in the pot. The staff member told us at the time that broth refills were free. However, when it came time for refills, they said it was only one time - poor communication. Paying was fairly straightforward, but for future visits, I'd likely just come for their lunch special sullongtang after this experience.
