41. Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio
Dana T.

I was excited to try a Viet place not in Garden Grove, but this place made me realize that nothing will ever beat the classic spots. I got the Bun Thit Nuong with Cha Gio and it was very bland and underwhelming. I had to ask for extra fish sauce and drown it in the sauce but it was still so bland. The meat was decent at least, but they barely give you any. The egg roll tasted stale and flavorless. The service here is very off putting because the staff is a little rude and side eye you when eating. Overall, super disappointed and will not be returning.

3. Pho Short Rib
Krystle I.

Amazing food! Pho is delicious, bahn mi is perfection, and the egg rolls are fried to a crispy golden brown. My family and I visited from Seattle and we are so happy we chose Pho 45. Our waiter was so kind and attentive. When our tired 3 year old was about to throw a fit he brought out a kids bowl of pho just for her without us even asking. Best customer service I've had in a while.

Food was phenomenal. Great price for such large portions! Service was super speedy! Ambiance was decent super crowded and had to wait a little to get in. #4 brisket ( well done) - 5/5 Egg rolls - 5/5

Grilled pork spring mushrooms: grilled pork is the same as charbroiled grilled pork chop rice dish. Packed with noodles, lettuce wrap and pork dish is savory and filling.

4. Pho Chin
Elijah I.

One of the best pho spots I've been to. Place was packed when I came by so be prepared. Service was amazing from the moment I walked in and greeted right away. I ordered the Pho Chin, which comes with well-done brisket, and it was excellent. No complaints at all, the broth was rich and flavorful, and the spices and sauces provided on the side were the perfect touch. Once you're done, you just head up to pay, which makes the whole experience quick and easy. Overall, a must try if you're in the area and craving a quality bowl of pho. Definitely coming back.

This is my fav local spot for pho. I've been coming here for almost a decade & the quality & taste has been consistent for all these years. The best part is the broth. It's served hot (temperature wise) which is a huge plus for me. Nowhere else I've been to serves their broth this hot. I also like that they're generous with the meat portion, onions & green onions although you could always order more on the side. Their spring roll isn't anything special but always served fresh. My husband orders the shrimp fried rice whenever he isn't in the mood for pho. The fried rice is also nothing out of the ordinary but solid. The 5 star review is for the pho. Service is polite & efficient. Place is packed all the time but never had to wait too long. I'll keep coming back as long as I'm nearby.

A well-deserved 5-star Vietnamese pho restaurant! The food is absolutely delicious, and the prices are very reasonable -- that's just the baseline here. What really sets this place apart is the outstanding service. Every staff member greets customers with a genuine smile, serves quickly, and treats guests with real care. Other restaurants should come here and learn what true hospitality means. While so many places only focus on tips, this team focuses on people -- and that makes all the difference.

Have been coming to this restaurant for the last 5 years and I recommend it to everyone in the area! 10/10 food and just as good hospitality and customer service! Food 10/10 The pho is delicious with a flavorful broth, tender thinly cut meat, and fresh and generous garnish. I've also tried their spring rolls and Vietnamese coffee both of which are also good. I would ask for less sweetness for the coffee though unless you have a big sweet tooth, but overall the coffee is nice and strong and fulfills my Vietnamese coffee craving. Service 10/10 One of the main things that makes me come back to this particular pho restaurant when there are so many in the area is their excellent and consistent customer service. The staff is warm, welcoming, kind, and attentive. I've never once had to ask them to refill my water because they're always on top of it. Even while writing this, they refilled my water! There was once when I visited and the owner was going around meeting and chatting with customers, something I've never seen at a restaurant before. Their hospitality definitely makes them a stand out. Whether I come in a group or alone, they're always extremely attentive and hospitable. Their whole wait staff works really well together. Aesthetic/Space The place is simple, clean, and modern. If you going during dinner especially on the weekends, there may be a short wait. Other times, you should have no trouble getting a seat. Food comes out fast and takeout as well! Will definitely continue to come back. I hope this place stays in business for a very long time!

Pho Brisket
Victoria A.

This is a local favorite for a reason, it's incredible. I visited on a Sunday night and it was pretty poppin as always, but not too long of a wait either (about 10 minutes or so). The service staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, the food comes out quickly (but not too quickly, I'd say 15 minutes or so), and the restaurant seating is comfortable and clean. Overall, great!!! Will be exploring more of the menu soon.

Egg rolls
Leslie W.

I came to Pho 45 and tried the brisket pho, #22 cơm tấm, coconut water, and egg rolls. Everything came out fast--within about five minutes--and the flavors were on point. The broth was tasty and comforting, the pork on the cơm tấm had a great barbecue flavor, and the egg rolls were crispy and well seasoned. Honestly the best pho in all of Whittier and La Mirada. I'd definitely come back.

Clearly very delicious- ordered spring rolls, and 2. Pho Tai Filet Mignon
Vivi F.

Love this place! Pho is very delicious :). Service is fast and efficient. One of our favorite places in La Mirada. Seated and fed within 15 minutes

Spring rolls
Justina C.

Was quickly seated by the servers and the food came very, very quickly. I liked the spring rolls, they were largely portioned and the peanut sauce was delicious. I got the first combo pho item, which has all different types of meat in it. There was a lot of meat and noodle in my dish, but the broth was not as flavorful as I would've liked. You have to go up to the counter and pay, so it feels somewhat hectic but very efficient.

1. Pho 45 Dac Biet
Trinity T.

Overall I really loved this location. The vibe was pretty much like a lot of Vietnamese restaurants. The pricey are on par with the market, portions are big and service is fast. You do pay at the counter once you're done (at least while we were there). The menu is pretty standard with various options from pho to rice to noodles. I did love that they gave broth on the side of rice dishes, really helps with digestion!

#6 with extra noodles

Is this owned by the pho 45 In Garden grove also?

Unless they had a recent change in ownership, then yes. If you check their website, it has a Garden Grove location listed too.

Do you add sugar to Pho? I am on a Keto diet that requires me no sugars. Appreciate your help

Traditional Pho contains rock sugar. The level of rock sugar also depends if you are eating "north" pho or "southern" pho. Sriracha also has sugar.

Any one know why they are still closed? When will they re-open?

Closed

Does anyone know if they are open?

I went by last week and they were closed. I'm not sure if they were remodeling or taking everything out.

Will you be open Christmas Eve?

Does anyone know if they're open for dine in again?

We Are Open now ...

Does anyone know if they're still open with all the Covina-19 virus that's going on now?

I've called numerous times over the past couple of weeks and the phone goes to a full voicemail box.. no answer. Not sure if they are still open for business.

Can you order pho to go?

Yes just call the number that is listed

Hangyang has been one of the must visit places ever since I found it about 15 years ago when I…read morevisited Anaheim for blizzcon. The place only serves a limited staple of Korean food but what they serve they do them so well that it's worth going just for that small menu. Over the years they expanded their menu but their staple imo is the galbi tang or beef bone soup. It comes with 2 pieces of large beef bones. The soup is delicious and is paired perfect with the mustard sauce. There are other delicious offering such as the thistle rice bowl. I'd say because of the limited menu everything is great. The parking lot can be packed especially in the weekend as all the church goes come by. Most of the clienteles are usually middle aged or older so you know they know what authentic Korean food is. The service is extremely efficient and very friendly. The place is clean just like most Korean restaurants. Nothing to complain about. Order the galbi tang and you'll be coming back.

We were craving some warm pho on a cold night, and Soup Shop sounded like the perfect spot. The plaza Soup Shop is located in is usually super crowded, but if you go after 9pm when most of the other restaurants and shops are closed, you'll find plenty of parking. Write your name down on the waiting list at the front podium and then wait for your name to be called. They have a few seats to wait right outside the door. Once we were seated, we were given menus. I really like that their menu has a lot of large photos of the dishes, so you know what you're getting! Once we ordered, the food came out pretty quickly despite being busy. For appetizers, we ordered the Crunchy Pork "Bao" since it sounded unique. Inside the bao is pork shoulder, mushroom, Vietnamese sausage, and quail egg. The outside has a thin, perfectly crispy layer that gives a nice little crunch when you bite into it. Really enjoyed these and would recommend! We also got the Crusted Parmesan Cauliflower. Not sure what's in the sauce, but it's sweet, tangy, and delicious! It's also topped with fried onion, cilantro, cucumber, and parmesan cheese. Also a winner! For entrees, we got the Chicken Pho and the Pho Ribeye. For the chicken Pho, you can get it with thigh or breast meat. I got it with breast meat, and they gave a good amount of meat! A little dry, but I appreciated that it was nice and lean. The flavor of the soup is really good. Pho Ribeye was also tasty! Hit the spot.
