This place was sooo good honestly some of the best pho I've ever had. A great and easy casual restaurant - we came on a Monday and there weren't too many people there. We started with the crab rangoons which were good. I loved all the sauces they had on the table (bc I'm a big sauce girl). We each got the #2 which was a steak pho and it was insanely good. The broth was amazing and the noodles were delish. Emily got the onions and put the housin sauce on it w sriracha and it was chef's kiss (great addition em). I was craving a sweet treat and they gave us dark chocolate covered peanut butter cups + fortune cookies which was the perfect ending to a great meal. I forgot to mention the portions are HUGE. We each have a whole to go container of pho left read more

Huge portions and great food here! Tried Le Pho and was not disappointed. First of all the service was great, our server kept making sure that we didn't need anything. The food was also really delicious and was all shareable. The banh mi was one of the best ones that I've ever had! The fried rice was also very fresh and flavorful. The restaurant itself is quiet and very roomy. read more

It's hard to find Vietnamese food in Los Angeles, but le pho is pretty decent. Situated in WeHo, it's hard to find parking by default, my group was just lucky we came when the meters were free. We got a rice plate and a pho, and were so hungry I forgot to take a picture before digging in. The rice plate was supposed to be a lemon grass pork, but the lemongrass wasn't as obvious to me. However, it paired well with the sauce on the side and I like that they have ginger sauce and house chili-vinegar sauce on the table. I also liked that the veggies were perfectly cooked - not undercooked stringy or over cooked mushy. The pho was decent and had a generous portion of meat for one person. The service is good! There were only two staff people for the late evening shift but I felt that our group was taken care of. The restaurant itself is nice, plenty of tables and has an outdoor seating to enjoy the weather. I also really appreciated that the bathroom was clean and well-stocked. read more

I ordered the pho with thinly sliced beef and tendons. The tendons were AMAZING. The pho broth in my opinion was okay. It wasn't THE BEST pho I've had here in LA. The indoor dining area was pretty. Parking in front of the place, had street parking which was nice and easy for me on a Thursday evening about 6pm. My only complaint was the beef, but to be fair I did order my beef on the side raw. Most places have the beef REALLY thin and paper like to where it cooks pretty fast in the broth. The beef they brought was much darker.. than I was use to. And it was pretty thick. I put all the beef in my broth immediately after but the beef was not cooked. It had a very "beefy" raw flavor to it. It made it hard to enjoy the pho. I took all the beef out of my bowl and just enjoyed the broth and the noodles. Would I come back? Probably not. There was only one server at this time and he was amazing. Props to the service and was super sweet. read more

It all tasted great and the meat servings in the Pho was generous. We came starving, we left happy.

Big fan of pho, first time guest at this restaurant in West Hollywood. Loved the service here over everything, she really gave us recommendations and went over the menu very well with us. They were busy and she still was friendly and personable so that definitely giving it a 4 star for me. The beef pho itself was good, I've just had better. The flavor needed just a little something extra to it to stand out. Nothing wrong with it, just kinda basic. The Thai tea was good, never can go wrong with those.

So I don't know interior or service as I had uber eats deliver it, but I am quite satisfied. Only got Pho Tai and a Bahn Mi, but both were tasty and the broth wasn't overly salty. They even mention on the menu that it's a light broth with low sodium. For some reason it's hard to find a pho here that isn't super salty. Orange County (lil Saigon) has lighter broths and I prefer them that way. The only thing I wish was that the steak came separately and raw because cooking in the broth is what I prefer since I don't like overcooked meat. But I would definitely order from here again. :) read more

This used to be one of my fiancée's and my go-to spots for pho, since it's one of the many pho restaurants scattered throughout West LA. However, the last time we visited, we were a bit disappointed. The pho was watered down, and the portion sizes were noticeably smaller than before. Not sure if it was just a one-time fluke, but I'd recommend being cautious if you're looking for that perfect pho experience here. read more

I don't mind paying more for the location, but the broth was so watered down it tasted like water. There's no way the broth came from bones as listed on the menu. There were way too many noodles and not enough meat in our two bowls for $20 each. The meat was not of good quality. The crepe appetizer was small and overcooked. We didn't complain and left a 20% tip. But sadly, we won't be returning. You can tell they were cutting costs while keeping the prices high. It was not worth $80 for two people. read more

Ordered Uber Eats from here and it was one of the worst food experiences I have ever paid for. 3 pho's and 1 spring roll order with tip came to nearly $100. The messed up one of the orders, paid for rare steak and meatballs and it came with no meatballs. The to-go bowls they used were SO SMALL. Like a child's amount for nearly $20 each. The meat came inside the broth and the rare steak was barely cooked, look at the photo. 3 of us agreed the broth was extremely bland and two of us are Vietnamese and have eaten plenty of pho in our life. I never use hoisin in my broth and had to put in packets to give the soup some flavor still barely helped. The meats tasted dry or honestly spoiled. The broth even started to turn a dark brown reddish color. The noodles also kept breaking making it hard to eat. The spring rolls were $12 and came with two tiny pieces with mostly just bean sprouts... look at the photo.... The chicken was incredibly dry and there was only one piece of shrimp. Also the rolls looked messy like I rolled them myself not like a $12 restaurant dish. Never going here or ordering from Uber eats ever again. read more

First of all, they have great pho! However, it needs to be noted that it's highly recommended you use the two house-made sauces they serve with the pho: a garlicky sauce and a spicy sauce (pictured). With the ample sprouts, jalapeño, fresh basil, and lime, you can easily make it some of the best damn pho you've had in ages! I personally like a one squeeze of the spicy and two big squeezes of the garlicky one;) Their Bun and Bahn mis are also great. Together with the convenient location and prompt, friendly service, Le Pho is a great spot! read more

The bun was soft with a slight crisp on the outside and the pork filling was juicy and packed with flavor. The chef's top picks definitely make sense here. The braised beef noodle soup is a must, and I can see why people love the three toppings spicy handmade noodle with pepper oil and the stir fried handmade noodle in cumin sauce. Everything feels thoughtfully made with really bold, satisfying flavors. If you're walking through The Grove and want something warm, filling, and actually memorable, this is a solid stop.

They have a small parking lot shared among many businesses if you drive over. We were warmly greeted and service was excellent throughout the entire meal. Their Karage was so juicy & plump, cut into slices rather than the nuggets you usually see. It was so incredibly delicious with tartar sauce & a chili oil served to compliment it. What makes Laki Ramen special is their Chicken Paitan/Baitang style ramen, which is rich & creamy and more importantly chicken-based. You usually only see pork-based ramens so this is a welcome change and I love having a speciality shop like this in Los Angeles. It left me feeling less heavy than with donkatsu ramens and has a few thinly sliced chicken pieces on top. I went with the Matcha Ramen which they only serve 10 of each day! But wow, was it nice and I absolutely loved it. Not to mention, the color was so pretty haha! I couldn't resist getting their Matcha Lemonade, as well, and I loved it so matcha ! That matcha lemonade is quali-tea!!! We also tried Laki's Chicken Cutlet Curry and absolutely loved it. Again, cooked perfectly in a rich and flavor-filled curry sauce. Everything we had at Laki Ramen was delicious! We agreed we'll be back and are intrigued to try their Clam Chowder Ramen! Oh and their music was fire!!! Aaliyah, TLC and Tupac!?

BEST RAMEN I HAVE EVER HAD!…read more We dropped by this on a whim, and I'm SO glad we did. They had just opened for the day, so there was no wait to be seated and the service was good. The space is cozy, but pretty much all you need to have some amazing ramen! We started with the drunken sake crispy wings, which tasted like nothing we'd had before. They're super crispy, juicy and very tasty. For my main, I got the #9 Chashu supreme and added dumplings. SO bomb!! From the moment it arrives at your table, the aroma of truffle is just divine! The flavors are perfectly balance with just enough spice. 10/10 recommend!

I ordered the Creamy Fusion #3 with pork, and while I enjoyed it, next time I'd probably try something with a little more bold flavor. The soba noodles in the ramen were excellent fresh, smooth, and cooked nicely. Service was fast and efficient, which I appreciated. I do wish they had physical menus instead of only QR codes though. We also tried the Wagyu sando and thought it was just average compared to the ramen. Overall, it's a solid ramen spot with high quality ingredients, and I'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu.

The Ragu is my favorite and done so so well. What's even better than the food is the impeccable service and amazing staff.

I'd like to give a special shoutout to Carl the manager who consistently goes above and beyond to curate amazing experiences for all guests. He's built a great team and I could not ask for a better experience. Thank you to Carl and his team! Consider me a regular:)

From the moment we sat down, he made my family and I feel so welcomed and taken care of.

He walked us through the menu, checked in on us throughout the night, and even took our family photo, which meant so much. Thank you for making our night unforgettable

Visited Hangari on Saturday evening to try their renown Kalguksu with some friends. I've known that…read morespecific parking lot/strip mall to be a nightmare parking wise, so I bit the bullet and used the on-site valet. There is sometimes street parking but the availability is rough, it's tough to park, and even one of the meters we ended up at just didn't work. They only charge a $5 cash service charge though, which isn't bad. We were lucky to be seated right away, even in a packed restaurant. The restaurant has a surprisingly modern design, and is comfortable for as small as it is. We were quickly served their signature kimchis and barley rice. The kimchi, particularly the yeolmu (young summer radish) kimchi, has a unique flavor profile well suited to their food. We ordered 2 bowls of their plain kalgooksu, 1 bibim milmyun, and 1 tteokbokki. The food came out fairly quickly. The kalgooksu was as expected the star of the show. The anchovy broth brings a savory complexity that seems impossible for a soup made from just dried fish and a few other ingredients. It even has a rich, almost thick, quality to it that is surprising for a fish broth. Their noodles, the titular kalgooksu, have the signature irregularity and chew of knife cut noodles. I appreciate the vegetables that always come in kalgooksu, like potato, pumpkin, and zucchini, which offer an earthy heartiness to the light soup. My only complaint is that the potato is in huge irregular chunks, and is barely cooked, though I feel like I have had this issue with many of the kalgooksu bowls I've had over the years. The bibim milmyun was solid. I think that I prefer the texture and flavor of naengmyeon buckwheat noodles, but the milmyun, which are made with mostly wheat flour, still provide a satisfying chew. The sauce tasted bright and fresh, especially with a splash of added vinegar. It also came with a small side portion of spicy pork and some rice paper to wrap. The tteokbokki was the one let down of the meal. To be fair, I wasn't expecting much out of tteokbokki at all restaurant like this whose specialty is essentially the opposite. I ordered the tteokbokki as a "safe pick" for a picky eater in the group. It turned out to be a bit mediocre in our opinion, and that friend ended up enjoying their kalgooksu anyways. If you're looking to try this dish, it's definitely one of if not the best I've had in Southern California, so I'd totally recommend it. I'll also warn to steer clear of the Garden Grove restaurant of the same name and specialty. I think it's a disappointing mimicry of this place.

The noodle texture and broth favor was amazing. I would definitely order this again if I come back! - Large Bossam (4.5/5): I absolutely love bossam and this was exactly what I expect when I order bossam. Only reason it's not 5/5 is it's not really any different from bossam elsewhere. Overall, this place is definitely worth the hype and I will be come back when I'm in the ktown area again!

I ordered the Taiwanese popcorn chicken with a side of rice and scallion pancakes. The popcorn chicken was very reasonably priced for the portion size and came with plenty of pieces. The scallion pancakes were priced a bit higher than I expected, but ultimately worth it. The chicken was extra crispy and well seasoned. It didn't have the familiar five-spice or cinnamon note I usually associate with Taiwanese popcorn chicken, but it was still very good in its own right. It also came with a side of sweet chili sauce, which paired well. The scallion pancakes were also a standout. Crispy on the outside, but soft, doughy, and pleasantly chewy inside without being overly oily. I would definitely order again.

Also, he didn't clean off our table very well. I had to bust out my alcohol spray and wipe the table. Oh did I mention that chicken was left on their counter just sitting there entire we were there waiting for food and when we left. Not once did the cook touch it or move it so god knows how long thy meat has been sitting there. The xai long bao was okay in taste. I've like Trader Joe's better. And I've yet to find a place comparable to DTF. I ordered some The white fish dumpling was good, but it was missing something. Still DTF is better. For the price as well. The wonton noodle soup, was okay. Noodle was bland. The wonton tasted the same as the xao long bao. The broth was so-so. The BBQ Pork Belly Buns. Those buns were hard and one bite into the thing, I spit it out. My kid did the same thing. How in the world do you mess up BBQ Pork?! I love me some hole in the walls, but sorry I wouldn't recommend this place.
