    Indoor Seating
    Kisha L.

    I love this restaurant. They have the best vercellmi noodles. Service is just alright. They are not too friendly. The place is outdated and needs some upgrades though. It clean and everything made fresh to order.

    53. Charbroiled Beef, Shrimp Paste and Egg Roll with Vermicelli
    Shawn S.

    Solid noodle restaurant with lots of different options and great value. The food was really satisfying and well made, and healthy too. Plenty of indoor seating and friendly staff who are attentive and helpful. The menu is extensive and there is something for everyone.

    Came here on a Saturday night and food was so amazing! There's plenty of seating in the restaurant and seemed clean. Server was very attentive with our waters. We ordered the egg rolls which complimented our pho really well. One order comes with five egg rolls and I loved how it was warm, freshly fried. I also ordered the steak, flank, and tendon pho. The meat and noodle portion was great for a regular size although I did feel like there could've been more tendon. I'm so happy that I found an authentic pho restaurant nearby. Highly recommend!

    Pho Tai (large) - $18.91 after tax...barely a normal serving of noodles and 3-4 slices of "rare beef" (May 2025)
    Kevin M.

    I've eaten here a few times out of convenience, and was mostly mediocre experiences not worth writing a review about. It's noticeably been on a decline over the past year or so, but tonight was too egregious a ripoff to remain silent! Ordered pho tai and "upgraded" to a "large" bowl for a +$2.50 up charge. What I got was nothing more than a somewhat larger volume bowl with perhaps more soup but maybe a few bites shy of an average serving of noodles and literally 3-4 slices of "rare beef"! $18.91 before tip is such a ripoff for a poorly executed optical illusion.

    Decent, lacked salt for me.

    Don't expect service with a smile here. Do expect them to give you the check without you having asked - whilst in the middle of eating. Vietnamese coffee - weak and underwhelming. Egg rolls - lacked salt/seasoning Seafood pho - decent

    House Special Beef Pho Soup
    Lucy M.

    $15.93 after tax for a large house special beef pho! The beef pho had a clear broth and there was a good amount of meat; wished there was more tripe and tendon inside. The noodles are slightly firm and thus the right texture (for me). Left the place smelling like pho. No wait on a Saturday afternoon. Service was quick and the noodles came out in less than 10 min after putting the order in!

    41. Diced Beef Steak and Onion Seared in Butter with Rice

    Second visit to this location, today we ordered variety of dishes. We had some egg rolls very crunchy and tasty the Phon was good . The restaurant was busy when we arrived but was able to get seated right away . Took minutes to get the food. This a good place to grab something quick and go about your day .

This is a very nice place to stop in and have a great lunch or dinner. Traditional Vietnamese food is their specialty. The foods are made from family recipes. Close attention is paid to preparation and flavor. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I needed extra explanations on some of the items and they were eager to accommodate my requests. I decided to try a soup and sandwich type of meal. For the soup portion I decided on the Special Pho Combination. For the sandwich Ham and Meatloaf. I sat down and waited for my order to be completed. After a short wait my order was ready and I was on my way home. When I unpacked my food I was impressed that everything was individually wrapped and placed carefully in the bag. Every ingredient of the soup had an individual wrapping. I was impressed by how much broth was given to put together my soup. I found the perfect bowl in my cabinet and combined all of the individual ingredients. They were all very fresh. The soup had a nice aroma as I warmed up the soup. The sandwich was ready to go and after the first couple of bites I was happy with my Ham and Meatloaf combination. Very impressed with the spice and flavor. This location has great parking. As well as a nice outside patio to compliment the tables that are located on the inside. The music coming through the speakers added to the ambience. I look forward to coming back and trying some of the other Vietnamese special foods on the menu.

There are plenty of other offerings in the area. I grew up with the chain and have tried various locations. Pho Banh Mi Che Cali generally promises a large selection of affordable various Vietnamese dishes at a super casual environment. No frills and amazing value. Unfortunately, I feel like this location is trying to do a lot of things. They offer Ramen or Chinese soups. There's so many "new item" signs and I really think they are losing their core identity. I'm getting off topic. I ordered the Pho with extra beef. I found the self-ordering kiosk to be easy to use. I was able to pay, grab a number and find myself a seat. While it wasn't a very clean place, it was fine. Where I was disappointed was when I tried the broth of my pho. I think Pho should have been a slam dunk for this restaurant. It's a staple to Vietnamese cuisine, so I'm sorry to report - I thought it was bland. I would say the worst pho in recent memory. The price starts at $12.99, so it's a tad cheaper than a normal sit down, but with the portions I got, i really think it isn't an excuse. I noticed others customers in the restaurant ordered Banh mi. Perhaps that's a better bet.

Their prices have not changed in years and the portions remain the same versus shrinkflation. Their menu is not that big but it has your essential Vietnamese dishes. Today I ordered the banh beo bi, vermicelli with nem nuong and egg rolls, nem nuong coun and che ba mau. Banh beo bi are rice cakes topped with shredded pork. It comes with chilies and fish sauce for you to pour on top. The rice cakes are served warm and are super smooth and soft. The thai chilies it comes with are spicy so don't use too much. The vermicelli with nem nuong and egg rolls comes with a slab of meat and a whole egg roll. The bottom are the noodles and mix of veggie and herbs. The nem nuong is sweetened charbroiled pork that is grilled. Think of a sweet meat ball. The egg rolls are super crispy and filled with meat. The noodles go well with the fish sauce and there are a lot of veggies inside. The nem nuong coun is a spring roll that's wrapped in rice paper. It has the meat and lettuce wrapped inside and comes with a dipping sauce. I believe the sauce is made with ground shrimp. For $8 for 3 rolls it is a steal compared to other restaurants. If you are craving Brodards in OC this place can satisfy your craving. Their che ba mau which is a 3 bean dessert has a lot of beans inside topped with coconut milk and shaved ice. It is the person drink to finish your meal and it is not too sweet.

The spring rolls are large and filled with shrimp and pork, meeting expectations. I'll definitely return.

It came off as dismissive, especially since she wasn't doing anything else beforehand. That interaction left a bad impression, and it makes me hesitant to come back despite how much I enjoyed the food the first time.
