Pork chop rice plate
Elise E.

We were craving some quick pho around the Anaheim area and found this place. When we first arrived, the sight was a little off putting. You can barely see the parking lot and there was only one other party there. However, don't let that deter you because we were genuinely surprised how good everything was. LE'S PHO came out hot in a ginormous bowl. We got the works to try different cuts of meat. All were nice and tender. PORK CHOP PLATE was the star of the show though. They gave generous amounts of juicy marinated pork that could feed 2 people easily. I would come back just for this. Another plus about this place is the prices are incredibly affordable. You won't come by another spot that sells pho and plates for less than $15. That is rare in this dang economy! Another another plus - you're supporting a mom and pop shop. The owners were so sweet and constantly checked on us. You can tell they love what they do. The inside was actually huge and what a shame it wasn't filled. This restaurant screams "Don't judge a book by its cover".

Pho ap chao beef
Aransazu C.

Really yummy spot! The prices here are cheaper than several other Vietnamese spots and the food was flavorful. We ordered garlic fries, crispy rice noodles, and the filet mignon garlic noodles. Favorite dish was filet mignon garlic noodles because the meat was unbelievably juicy and tender. Noodles were well seasoned and unlike other spots they actually tasted like garlic. They have several fans going and didn't have the AC on so it was stuffy when we walked in but food was worth it.

Such an underrated place to eat and my favorite sit down spot right now and I love how it's run by a family easily 5 stars!

I judged this book by its cover and I was so wrong. Pulled up for early dinner around 5pm and the parking lot was empty! I immediately wanted to get back in my car and leave but I'm so glad I didn't. The food here is delicious! The pho ironically was a 3.5/5, broth was not as flavorful but the meats in the combination were bomb. The real stars of the show were the pork chops and vermicelli. The grilled pork chops were BIG portions and so so flavorful. The vermicelli was also phenomenal - the chicken almost knocked me out of my seat! This place has amazing food, really random and interesting decor, inside walls that are actually outside walls, and good service - please come try their food !

Pork chop is legit
Byron C.

A pork chop is amazing it has so much meat it's the best charred flavor and it's cheap at 11! This place is the best for good value and good food. So underrated!

Egg Rolls (3)
Sam R.

Cute little Pho restaurant. Portions are appropriate for the price. Had the classic pho tai: broth was seasoned well and meat to noodle ratio was good. Egg rolls were hot and crunchy, everything I had was yummy. Only one server but she was attentive to our needs.

Pho ap chao
Sarah P.

Honestly a really solid place and relatively affordable! It's a mom and pop shop, so the food may take a while to come out depending on how busy the restaurant is. It's pretty spacious inside with some standard furnishing, and parking is decent depending on the hours you go. I've tried different dishes from the restaurant like the banh mi chao and the combination skewer meat (rice with grilled chicken, shrimp, and beef), and my parents normally order the pho ap chao. The pho ap chao is always topped with plenty of rich sauce, veggies, and some beef/shrimp - all while maintaining the perfect level of crisp. My mom and I always get the fries because they're perfectly fried with garlic and salt, and come with this tangy delicious sauce. (The last time we came, however, it seemed like the portion size on the fries was smaller :( hoping that was a one-time thing...). The banh mi chao was not bad, but I was a bit disappointed by the amount of meat it actually came with - however, for $13 it makes sense. The sauce reminded me of the gravy you get at Jolibee but richer! I really liked the combination skewer meat, specifically the chicken and shrimp, since the beef was kind of dry/tough. It came with a little salad and a lot of rice; for $15 that was a good meal! Overall, I would definitely recommend this spot for someone who's craving some affordable Vietnamese food and doesn't mind potentially waiting.

Inside
Thuyvu P.

Don't let the outside exterior fool you, this Vietnamese restaurant is tasty and decently priced. My husband and I went before the dinner rush hour and got pho, vermicelli, and a rice plate. It took awhile for the food to come but looks like this place is a mom and pop establishment. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection, I love vermicelli and is usually my go to dish- the meat was charbroiled and that's when you know , it's legit! I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu.

This restaurant was alright. Nothing to rave about in my opinion. The service was weird. The young lady was not very friendly and did not have very good customer service skills. She kept saying "anything else?" to our large party of 7 when we each ordered individually. The spring rolls were the best thing. The shrimp was fresh in them. The filet and garlic noodles was good but needed more garlic and just more seasoning/flavor in general. The pho was very watered down and the meat was a little chewy for being "tender beef." The flavor wasn't very strong. This place is average. I wish I could give it 3.5 stars.

Sara D.

The service was great. Only two people working. The lady was super nice and friendly. Every table that was not being used had used dishes on the table. It didn't make the ambiance great. But 13 dollars a bowl. You get what you pay for. I'd rather go somewhere else.

Chicken Pho

The food was honestly impeccable in my opinion, I've loved pho and driven far and close and must say this place is great. The broth, you can taste every ingredient. I had the rare steak and my husband had the pho. We both left our bowls empty. It's very family oriented and everyone is so hospitable and have a smile. Definitely putting this place on our rotation. Worth the drive. Even my baby LOVED it.

Kat P.

BF and I love it here. We're foodies and love how each dish is so flavorful. He loves the pork dishes and says the meat is perfectly smokey. I've tried all the pho dishes, the pork vermicelli bowl and the shaken beef with rice. I can attest all are banger, especially with SUCH affordable prices considering how much food costs other places. Spot is run by an old couple. Wife says it was her husband's dream to open up a restaurant, but business is slow. Come by and support!

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.

I stopped by for an early dinner on my way back to San Diego last weekend. My friend and I each got the bulgogi garlic noodles (I added the egg but for $2.50 not sure it added a lot of flavor or value to the dish), shared the wings and an order fries. I also ordered a Vietnamese coffee on the cashier's recommendation--good suggestion, nice flavor without an overpowering amount of sugar. The wings were fantastic. Fries were fair, good portions and flavorful. I liked the noodles but weren't blown away. Everything was very soft, not a lot of textural change. The portion was generous with lots of bulgogi beef. The service was great--friendly and responsive. They have a small lot which was fine at 530pm on Sunday but probably problematic at lunch or normal dinner hours. My one complain was dirty dining room. Maybe it was just after the lunch rush, but the tables and floor could have used some wiping and the trash cans were full. Nice easy meal stop off the freeway at Orange.

Their rice is not fully cooked. How can an establishment let something so basic go unchecked?…read more Less importantly I wouldve preferred their grilled shrimp unshelled. And their garlic noodles and steak were bland. Lastly, I had to repeat my order (of two items) several times.

Usually we would have to wait for a table but this time we were able to be seated right away…read more Must order is their Nam Neung Spring rolls. The sweetness of the grilled pork, the crispiness of the eggrolls wrapper bits, and the freshness of the vegetables pairs with the special sauce never fails to satisfy the craving. This time we tried their cheeseburger spring Roasted Duck spring rolls. I am not a duck fan so this was okay to me. The meat was well seasoned with the spices and the hoisin sauce was a nice balance. The crispy Vietnamese eggrolls were also a first and it was great! The meaty and crispiness of the eggrolls eaten like a lettuce wrap with the nuoc Cham sauce was delicious. This place always seems to be busy and rushed and can get a bit loud but the service is always great. They have a bar where you can grab some drinks while you wait. Their lychee martini is good.

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

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!
