Absolutely loved our experience at Pho 86! The food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The pho was amazing, the portions were generous, and everything came out hot and fresh. The service was also friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. You can definitely tell they put care into their food and customer service. If you're craving good Vietnamese food, I highly recommend giving Pho 86 a try! We'll definitely be coming back. read more

One of my favorite places to get pho in Garden Grove. I've been coming here for decades, ever since my college days; I love coming here because they are open super early (5AM to 9PM). I usually get the rare beef, brisket, and beef balls. The cuts of meats here are delicious and plentiful in every bowl. The broth is a beautiful, layered and clean tasting broth, with plenty of veggies to put into your bowl. You can pick the thin or thick cut of noodles here; I like the thin noodles, they are perfectly chewy. Service here is phenomenal; I have been greeted by the particular male and a female server many times over, as they both have been here as long as the store has been opened. It feels like home when I walk into the store. The store is neatly decorated, showcasing some of its delicious dishes on the walls. You may find some things on the counter, selling some awesome homemade chili and ginger sauces, and various other things. read more

This is my favorite pho restaurant to go to when I visit the OC, mainly because of the xi quach. It is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. My go to is the pho dac biet, which has all the different meats. The broth is flavorful and clear. This time we ordered the large xi quach which is tendon on the bone. The portion is huuugggee...small next time. The tendon is just the perfect tenderness and full of flavor since it is used to make the broth. Just note that if you go too early in the morning it might not be available yet. read more

I went to Pho 86 today, and unfortunately it will also be my last. I ordered the oxtail pho, shrimp summer rolls, a plain small bowl of pho with no meat, root beer, and a Vietnamese iced coffee. The total bill was over $49. I asked how much the oxtail pho was, and I was told it was $20 for a small bowl. The pho came with only two very small pieces of oxtail, which appeared to be tail-end pieces with very little meat and mostly bone. I wouldn't have minded paying the price if the quality had matched the cost, but the biggest disappointment was the broth. The soup lacked the rich, aromatic pho flavor that makes a good bowl of pho enjoyable. Overall, the portion, quality, and taste did not justify the price. Based on my experience, I would not return. read more

I have been to this pho place before awhile back. Today, I went here with my dad and we got pho tai dac biet. The pho tai dac biet has two sizes (small and large). The pho was delicious, great flavor, and aromatics. The beef was soft, smooth, and easy to chew. The noodles are soft, chewy,and bouncy. The service was fast & employee is very nice and friendly. The store has a great atmosphere, spacious, and clean. There is plenty of parking. I would definitely come back here if I would want to have a good pho for a cold day. read more

Pho 86 Restaurant - Pho tai dac biet - Vietnamese Near Me - Westminster, California

Honestly, not as good as other pho places but still so solid. I can't consciously give this a 4 star because everything was excellent. The broth and meat quality is solid but not as good as the best, however it was a great portion and hit the spot when other restaurants had crazy long waits! Service was good and the inside was clean and tidy. read more

Pho 86 Restaurant - Number 2 Large - Vietnamese Near Me - Westminster, California

Family owned since the 80's. We dined in for lunch in a party of 6. Service was quick, efficient, and friendly. They were very accommodating with all our special requests. We ordered 3 pho tai, 1 pho dac biet, and 1 com ga hai nam. Broths were nice and flavorful. The chicken was chopped into perfect bite sized pieces. We also ordered a bowl of beef bones. Lots of tendon on them. Overall, great pho restaurant. Highly recommend. read more

NGL the line at phoholic was too long, so I went to the nearest pho joint. It happened to be Pho 86, which is diagonally across the street. There was plenty of parking. The parking lot is huge. (Iykyk phoholic has like no parking) I saw signs that said pho ga hai nam, so I decided to try it. It came with a garlic sauce and a small bowl of hot broth, which was delicious. The rice was on the dry side, so I wouldn't order this again. The pho dac biet was satisfying. You can get a large size of this for $0.50 more. I think they forgot to be diligent with removing fatty parts. There was literally two chunks of inedible yellow fat. I ordered an appetizer of egg rolls (4). This was pretty good! I wish it came with more greens other than lettuce. I would get it again. The garlic sauce from my rice was good with the egg rolls too. Service was good. There weren't too many patrons, so I felt they were very attentive. There was one lady who spoke English well, but everyone else said very little. Credit card is accepted, but there is a fee, maybe $0.50, to use it. They also charge $0.50 to take out orders. read more

The service was quick and friendly! The server performed multiple table touches to ensure our group ordered everything correctly. The food was delicious, not needing to add any flavoring, as the Pho was perfect. The dining area was clean, presentable and music from today hits playing, just at the right volume. Plenty of parking. read more

If I could leave 0 stars, I would. The food and service were subpar at best, ridiculously bad at worst. When we arrived, we ordered a phở đặc biệt and a miến gà. Upon receiving it, we noted that both the broths were lacking in flavor and tasted diluted. Moreover, the phở broth had a hint of sourness, as if there was something rotten/old. We saw another review that noticed similar things, and where the owner chalked it up to "the end of the day". Keep in mind, we arrived around 5:30AM. The meat in the phở was okay at best. We had to stop eating after a couple bites of both soups, and decided to not take any leftovers home (there were still 2 full bowls). What really soured our experience here was the bill, as what should have been a $30 meal ($14.50 per large bowl as said on the menu + tax) came out to around $36. We asked for a receipt, and the lady at the front began rambling about the different charges they snuck in after. Apparently, they charge for water ($1 each) and choosing breast meat over dark meat ($2.50, when the server did not indicate it would be an additional charge). When we asked to see the menu again to see where this notice was listed, the lady pointed to a barely legible handwritten sticker on the menu that said, "mỏi thức lên giá (every item increases the price)." She continued trying to explain why they nickel and dimes us, but at that point we were done with the experience. If you are going to charge for every little thing that is standard at other restaurants, either state it clearly on your menu, disclose it to your customers prior to ordering, or refill the waters that we apparently payed $1 each for. If you are looking for a phở place, this is not it. read more

The food here is excellent. My favorite order is the Pho Dac Biet and an order of the Beef bones. The broth is full of flavor, and the meat is tender and filling. Soup reminds me of my childhood eating Pho and it is flavorful and aromatic with fresh herbs and veggies served on the side. The service is always top notch, and workers are kind and attentive. Tiffany is always so nice with a bright smile and treating her customers with respect. Outdoor seating is available for dog owners. Highly recommend this place. We drive from LA to enjoy the food. read more

I was a regular here for years when I first moved to California in 2006. Haven't been back for 15 years because we moved away. We just moved back and as soon as I taste the soup again the other day all the memories came back. Love the flavor so much. Also a big plus the owner and team here is so nice. Ps must try their chen tiet. read more

Great place for pho we go here all the time since 1999. I always order pho đặc biệt.

Used to love Pho 86. It was our go-to spot back in the day and we always enjoyed supporting a local mom-and-pop business. Recently came back for dinner and was honestly disappointed. The broth lacked the depth and flavor we remembered and tasted more like canned beef broth. When we mentioned it, we were told they were already aware (have no intentions of fixing it) and that it's expected toward the end of the day. That response was more disappointing than the meal itself. Sadly, I couldn't even finish half the bowl. Paid, left quietly, and walked away with the memories of what this place used to be. read more

Still my go to spot for pho. They have the best beef and chicken pho and they're generous with the meat portion. Their limeade is really good too. read more

Pho 86 Restaurant - Pho ga - Vietnamese Near Me - Westminster, California

Be careful! They rang up my bill by just punching in $47.80 in the cash register without adding up each item. I had mentally added up our meals and knew it cost $39. Add OC tax and it would be about $42. Tried to claim I didn't see the extra $2 for dark meat on the pho ga (not there on the menu) and then said they raises prices but it's not on all the menus yet. So I paid their fake inflated price and took back the tip (she was also the waitress). Now I have to check my credit card statement to make sure they don't add extra costs onto my bill. What a hassle. I eat in Bolsa every weekend. There are so many good honest restaurants. Even though their pho bo and pho ga were both pretty good please don't give business to crooks! read more

The manager of this pho restaurant is very dishonest. I ordered 2 chicken pho soups and 1 well done brisket soup. I was not told by the waiter that the menu price was an additional 10% more. Also, we were not told that if we ordered dark meat for the chicken that they would charge us extra $1.50 for each soup ordered. The waiter did not mention that the rice noodle would not be the thinner noodle but the thicker one. When we got the soup we did not get chicken pieces but chicken feet with the skin on it. The soup was terrible and it had little pieces if bone in it. The soup that we ordered with the well-done brisket was not cooked at all. It was uncooked and not well-done. We ended up paying $56 dollars for lunch!! We got taken advantage of!! I don't recommend going to this place to eat!! read more

Pretty decent Vietnamese food. My sister came for the beef bone with tendon. That was pretty massive. The eggs rolls were bigger than expected and very good. Spring roll was fresh and tasty. Pho broth did not disappoint. The restaurant is clean and service was excellent. Server checked on us regularly. Menu is limited compared to other Vietnamese restaurants but we were happy with our order. read more

I went to this restaurant at around 11:45am, lunch time. I was a little surprised that there was only 1 customer (to be fair, there were 2 more by the time I left), because this place used to pack. When they brought my beef pho out, the toppings were beef, but the broth was totally chicken pho broth. I complained to the cook who happened to walk past my table, but he just brushed me off. Didn't wanna waste it, I ate as much as i could, but had to give up half way through. Beef pho doesn't go too well with chicken broth. After paying, I mentioned this to the owner who was tending the cashier, but she had no reaction. None. For their sake, I really hope the cook just messed up the broth, because, if their beef pho really tastes like this, then they won't last. Either way I'm not coming back ! read more

My husband picked up a small bowl of rare beef pho for me. They open from 5:00am - 8:30pm EVERYDAY. The packaging was very careful. The broth is in its own container and the noodles and rate beef in another. There's also a bag of fresh vegetables. The broth is light, not too deep. I enjoyed it with extra lime, hoisin and Sriracha. I think it's a great restaurant for someone dipping their toes into Vietnamese food. read more

I Togo 4 Pho all large and this is what I get once I call back to let management or owner know see somehow if I can get pictures to them to see if it is normal they declined and end it with a thank you so I guess I showed it up here for future reference make sure you ask for enough broth since this is literally considered only 2 large soup across the street or everywhere else read more

With so many amazing pho restaurants in the Westminster area, I was surprised this restaurant is still in business! We normally go to Pho 79 (the best pho in town) , but decided to try something new since we were in the area . My whole family and I were so disappointed by the quality of the meat as well as the broth of pho 86!! The broth was flavorless, watered down and lacking the pho aroma we were all expecting! We veggie was seriously lacking with a couple sad looking stems of basil and wilted saw leaves! We will never come back here. If you want a good bowl of pho, try pho 79, pho lover, or pho Holic! read more

Parking is free and ample. They were quick to seat us. Although there was many empty tables, they decided to seat us at a table with a tree in the way of one of the seats. Luckily we were able to move tables. The order came out quickly, but I feel like there was not enough meat. Also the broth didn't smell/taste clean. It's not the worst but in this area, you for sure can get better. FYI water isn't free here! read more

One of the few businesses that is still open in the old Starer's Bro parking lot. The have nicely covered outdoor seating. Decent COVID precautions it seems. People are seated away from other tables. I got Pho Tai to go to try this place out. The get the to go ready in record time (took like 2-3 minutes!). Pho soups is in a styrofoam cup and the noodle and Tai in a small Chinese takeout paper box. They asked if I want thick or thin noodles, and I chose the thick noodle. Due to COVID, they charge a little bit extra for take out. I reheated the soup when I got home. Tasted good - on par with other restaurants. I would say that I am a big eater and the amount was not enough for dinner. Luckily I have extra noodles and veggies at home. Would be nice to have more meat too. read more
