    這家越南河粉的可能已經開了好幾年了,離我的地方這麼近,我倒是第一次走來,後來想想我一整年都很少吃越南河粉,朋友說這一家是pho ha的股東出來開的,裡面看起來是蠻清爽乾淨的,河粉的味道也不錯,剛剛上來才發現他們好像也是連鎖店呢

    1.Beef Pho Combo, thai milk tea
    TomTom M.

    Not your typical Vietnamese atmosphere restaurant. The place is more clean, servers are American / hispanic, menu is in english. A bowl of beef pho is around $17, a thai tea is around 5. The size of the bowl is pretty big. Food is pretty decent. Service is 5 star because server is super friendly snd helpful. Place is clean so a 5 star, price is a little more expensive than a regular Vietnamese pho place so i give it a 4 star. Food wise, 4 star for the size and taste. The plaza do get busy around times especially during lunch, although the parking lot isn't small but its shared with other stores

    #1 Beef Pho Combo

    Last Sunday night, after shopping at the HomeGoods store in Walnut, we decided to try Mr. Pho California Kitchen since it's in the same plaza. And there's nothing better than having a hot bowl of Pho on a windy, chilly night. Mr. Pho definitely didn't disappoint us. The restaurant was very spacious, with high ceilings and a contemporary interior design. It was very comfortable to sit and eat inside. The menu was simple and straightforward. We ordered their highly recommended #1 Beef Pho Combo ($17), which was absolutely delicious. Everything was perfect--the broth's taste and temperature, the portion size of the noodles and meat, and the quality of the meat, which was fresh. The Iced Thai Tea ($5.50) was great, with the perfect level of sweetness! The service was fast and efficient. I also noticed they offer Bone Marrow Pho, something I've never seen at other Pho restaurants, and I'll definitely visit again to try that.

    Banh mi sandwich

    This restaurant space at the Walnut Village has revolved into different restaurants over the years, but my husband and I really hope this one stays. It has become one of our go-to spots in Walnut. We usually go for pho and the garlic noodles, but we wanted to try the banh mi sandwich this time. It did not disappoint! The bread was toasted well, meat was tasty / juicy, and we would definitely get this again. One of the top banh mi's we have had. Service is quick. Restaurant looks clean and aesthetic.

    Beef pho combo - always missing beef ball
    Katie Y.

    Every time that I order take out & get the beef pho combo, they always forget to add beef ball to my order. So disappointing. It has happened two times now. Please double check your togo orders.

    Two adults went out to an early dinner around 5ish pm to Mr. Pho California kitchen. The Vietnamese fusion cuisine is modern, clean and simple. Service is friendly. We ordered the beef pho combo which you can choose one ice tea or soda and one spring roll or egg roll. We chose spring roll the sauce and roll are great. As for beef pho, the taste is on sweeter side but good portion for sharing. Shrimp fried rice comes with pickle cabbage which I like a lot.

    The food was great! Staff was great also. I love that the broth wasn't salty. I also like that the inside of the restaurant is not so bright.. good ambience.

    I'll make this review fast and simple. Atmosphere is clean and spacious. Service was a bit slow as it seems that they were missing workers or that they don't have enough servers. The food, 10/10. They gave a generous portion of meat, just the right amount of noodles, and the soup was perfectly balanced, not too salty, with a perfect flavor. I'm planning on coming back more often for lunch!

    What's left of the Mr.Pho Rice Dish! Came with egg but we had it scrambled!! A little over priced. Could be 13-14 dollars.

    My friend introduced me to this place last year. Ever since then, it's been one of my go-to places…read morefor lunch! No frills, delicious, and quick service. I always get 14b (rare filet mignon), and it is consistently great. Very generous portions without sacrificing quality! I just wouldn't recommend the iced coffee here. I'm vietnamese and love vietnamese coffee, but theirs is too concentrated to drink. It's very sweet and thick.. and a bit of a burnt aftertaste to me.

    came in for brunch around 11am on a Tuesday after running errands in the neighborhood…read more pretty large area with many tables. picked my own table by the window. waiter dropped off the menu for me to browse through. I ordered a house special pho, egg rolls and Vietnamese hot coffee with condensed milk. I was expecting the pho comes out first as usually that's the case since the soup is ready made, pho noodle doesn't take long to cook. but the egg rolls actually came out first piping hot. I was also pleasantly surprised that I can taste some meat inside the egg rolls. Pho and coffee came about the same time. pho noodle was standard size with enough pho noodle (still too much for my taste). the beef slices do have some pink (raw) color when it was served. soup was flavorful enough. coffee was too sweet for my taste. I even asked for more coffee to dilute the sweetness but didn't help much. total bill was around $26+tips for 1 person.

Unfortunately, service was rough from the start. We sat for about 10 minutes without being greeted or even acknowledged. Honestly, even a quick "I'll be right with you" would've gone a long way. Instead, our server (young woman with tattoos) continued helping the tables to our left and right before finally coming back to us. Drinks also took a while to come out, and although she took our order, she never once checked back on us afterward. The restaurant itself was actually very nice inside and the temperature was perfect, especially considering how packed it was. To be fair, other staff members did step in and help throughout the night. Howard the busser was extremely attentive with drink refills, and another server helped bring requested sides like peanuts for the Pad Thai, the chili platter, and our to-go boxes. Honestly, they helped save the experience. Food: * Chicken Pad Thai -- 4.5/5 Really good flavor and portion. * Tom Yum Shrimp Soup -- 5/5 Flavor was excellent and definitely the highlight of the meal, though the shrimp upcharge was only about 5 pieces so the portion felt a little light for the extra cost. * Papaya Salad (+ shrimp) -- 3/5 Needed to be colder and the sauce lacked a little punch. Our Pad Thai was also accidentally delivered to the table next to us first, though thankfully they caught it immediately and it was brought over quickly. What stood out was that the tables around us were also visibly frustrated and having service issues, so it felt more like the restaurant was overwhelmed overall rather than a one-table issue. The food itself was good enough that I'd come back and give them another try on a normal day instead of one of the busiest holidays of the year.

However, we were told they stop seating guests after 8:30 PM and that arriving at 8:24 was "too close" to that cutoff. This was frustrating and confusing, as we technically arrived before their stated seating deadline. We dine here frequently and have always enjoyed our experiences, which made this situation especially disappointing. Being turned away despite arriving within what appears to be the acceptable window felt misleading and uncharacteristic of the service we've come to expect. If the kitchen or staff need to stop seating earlier than what customers would reasonably expect based on closing time, that policy should be made much clearer upfront. Turning guests away who arrive within the posted window feels frustrating and disappointing.
