I've been a fan of Pho 999 for over 20 years! It's a quaint Vietnamese restaurant located in a strip mall. Their pho is delicious. Their bun noodle Bowls are delicious. Everything on their menu is super tasty. My top dishes to order are the pho noodle bowls, bun bo hue, spring rolls, egg rolls, And the boba smoothies! Service is great. Many of the servers have worked here for 20+ years! Prices are reasonable and there is plenty of parking! read more

Near 99 Ranch across the street, there are two pho places, this location and Pho So 1. Unfortunately, I can recommend neither. Service is as expected - fast seating, fast ordering, fast arrival. The staff are efficient. I had their #54 (Bun Bo Thit Nuong) - charboiled beef and rice vermicelli. (Cold dishes are my preference for summer.) The dish came as usual, with the fish sauce on the side to add to one's liking. There was a good portion of beef, but it tasted pretty tough, almost as if it were already premade and tasted quite rubbery. Thankfully, they were thin and chewable. After finishing the meal, payment is up front at the counter - the usual. If there's one thing I won't forget other than the meal, though, it's the water. There's something about that iced water that made it hard to drink. read more

Pho 999 - Bun Bo Thit Nuong - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

A solid Vietnamese pho spot that's been my girlfriend's go-to spot since she was young. I also have enjoyed coming here for the past 5 years and can definitely say I never feel like the quality of the food has changed. They have a very big menu though with tons of other entrees so I just wanted to note that for my review I usually only order these 3 items: the #1 pho combo, the eggrolls, and the pork chop rice plate. The service is usually fast and you can expect a hot bowl of soup within 15 minutes. I also like to get the porkchop plate here and I really like how tender and crispy it tastes from the grill!!! The eggrolls are super hot, crispy and filled with filling. I always dine in rather than take the food for takeout. There's chopsticks, soup spoons, sauces on the table to help with eating. You need to personally request staff for forks and spoons. Pricing is affordable and totally worth what you pay for. read more

Pho 999 - Charbroiled Pork Chop Plate (Cơm Sườn Nướng) - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Pho 999 remains a convenient and reasonably priced option for Vietnamese takeout, even with its inconsistencies in service, occasional pricing mismatches against the menu, and variable food quality such as lukewarm broth. The menu covers the expected range of pho variations--including the special combo, rare steak with brisket, chicken, and other combinations--alongside spring rolls, egg rolls, vermicelli bowls, and rice plates. On this visit the pho itself was solid. The broth delivered a rich, aromatic base with good depth of spice and beefiness. The meats were tender and generously portioned, accompanied by the usual fresh sides of basil, bean sprouts, lime, and jalapeño. Once assembled at home, the noodles held their texture reasonably well. Pickup service was reasonably quick, and the food containers for the soup and noodles were sealed adequately enough that nothing major spilled from the main dishes. The common practice of packaging the broth separately from the noodles and meat helped preserve heat and texture during the short trip home. The clear disappointment was the Thai iced tea. It arrived with obviously inadequate sealing--the lid was not properly secured or the seal was incomplete and weak. During the brief drive, a significant amount leaked into the plastic bag, soaking the bottom, wetting the napkins and utensils, and creating a sticky mess. By the time the cup was retrieved, a good portion of the drink had spilled, the bag was ruined, and what remained was diluted and watery from melted ice mixed with the leaked liquid. This is a basic packaging failure that should not occur with a standard takeout drink cup, especially a sweet, creamy Thai tea that many people specifically order to pair with pho. A proper snap-on lid, secure film seal, or even a quick double-check of the closure before handing over the order would have prevented the entire problem. The overall food quality is still high enough that I would consider returning for dine-in or for carefully inspected takeout orders. However, the drink sealing failure was annoying enough to lower the experience. Pricing remains generally fair for the portion sizes offered. read more

Used to come here back in the day. Came in out of impulse and glad to see the place still hold their authenticity, Service was great, flavorful dishes, good sizes and very chill place to be overall, Spring rolls were great, the lemon chicken, pork chops, soups, and the lemonade all was great read more

So sorry but my dish was so bad lol. I didn't get pho I got one of my second favorite viet dishes which is lemongrass chicken. It was cold, the sauce was bland, i dont know it was just so "cafeteria". I was having a long day and starving and this made me so sad lol. The thing is IT LOOKS SO GOOD!! BUT I don't think I'll be back here. My fiancé said he loved his pho bc he's been here before só his expectations were set lol. Maybe mine were too high. read more

What keeps me coming back to this place is their broth. As you can see it's clear & full of flavor. NOT to be confused with that thin greasy film that can be confused with flavor. If delicious pho is all you're looking for, their service can get you in & out in 30mins. read more

So I've tried a couple of Pho places in the neighborhood and this place has the best broth. However the eggrolls have no flavor...the meat is bland. The cust svs is on point and the steak and flank was tender (had the #12)...I will go back. read more

I've been going all a lot of the Pho places in the area and thought this place nearby would be a good choice based on other ratings. However it did not live up to those ratings. The service wasn't the best and the food matched. When the waiter came to our table they stood behind me and didn't say anything so I had no idea they were waiting to take our order. I ordered the Marinated Chickenw ith fried rice. The chicken, while it had good marinade, was dry and over cooked. The fried rice also tasted unusual. My companion similarly wasn't thrilled about their order either. I rarely leave a place without eating most of my food or asking for the leftovers to go, here we simply left the food on the plates. When I went to pay I had to wait around for a while despite a large number of the staff just sitting out in the restaurant eatting oranges that sellers from outside came in and tried to sell to the restaurants customers. I don't expect anyone on their break or lunch to stop and get up to let me pay but I would expect that someone would've flagged down whoever was still on the clock to help me out. read more

After driving around Beverly Hills with my client, she decided to stop by here for some late lunch. According to her, this place has been here forever. I have been here once and it looks still the same. It needs a lot of work to spruce up the place. I recommended the beef combo or rare steak pho but my client ordered the chicken pho and she was not happy about it. She still finished the pho though. But made sure to herself that she will not order it again. It's not tasty enough. Servings are generous. Quick service. During the visit, customers were in and out but there is always a table or two available. Plenty of parking space that is shared with the other businesses. read more

This is my go to spot for pho or one of them. Most of the time it's solid. Decent tasting. Sometimes it's a little not so warm or hot. This was one of those times. Pho #1 was tasty per usual. Mixed meats of rare, fatty and lean cooked brisket. Tendon and tripe come in it too. The broth is tasty. Not too fatty but not lean. Just right. Fried egg rolls are decent. They changed up the wrapping as this one doesn't bubble up. Served with some wrap lettuce carrot cucumber and jicama. Spring rolls were large. Lots of lettuce. Cold pork or beef I think. The sauce is a bit thin but I think they give you too much of it. Instead of watering down the sauce and giving a lot why not give half of the portion but don't thin in it out. Service is quick. Usually done by a very old man. After they get your order and serve it they don't ever go back. This is common for other places. read more

Pho 999 - Fire Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Came here for dinner with my sister and ordered shrimp spring rolls, vermicelli bowl (forgot to take a picture of it), and a rice noodle soup with crabmeat, shrimp, and fried pork (they ran out of the default noodles that are usually in the dish so we had to choose another type of noodles). The restaurant seemed busy and there was not much interaction with staff. The food was honestly really bland (also not a picky eater) compared to other restaurants I've been to, not sure why since this restaurant has 4.4 stars with 1,000+ reviews on Google. The price wasn't bad for the dishes but honestly would not return here next time. read more

It took a while for them to take our order. There is a language barrier. The food was so so. They clean up the tables by banging the dishes. When it's time to pay the guy had an attitude, secondly they charge you more so you have to pay attention and when you bring up the mistake he gave a pist off look and in the end still didn't fix the up charge. I have to warn you guys just always check your bill. Not friendly here. This is my first time here. I usually go to the newly opened Pho So 1 on Chatsworth & Zelzah in Granada Hills or Balboa & Devonshire. Won't be back here again. The pho size is small. Frustrating to order and they don't understand you. read more

Gross. Vermicelli was not fresh... egg rolls were tasteless... meat seasoning is all wrong. I hate paying for bad food.

Used to come here years ago and quality has gone so down hill. Ordered egg rolls and 2 steak phos and the food came out within 2 minutes of placing the order. Clearly everything is just sitting out and not made fresh. Upon eating our egg rolls, wrapping it in lettuce per usual, we found a bunch of dirt on our lettuce. Clearly unwashed, can only imagine how unsanitary everything else may be. Told the waiter and he just took back the lettuce to show the kitchen - they didn't even reduce the check. Will never be coming back. read more

The quality of their food is inconsistent here. It seems to me that they save their unsold/left over foods for the next several days. You can tell when the broth/meat is fresh and when it isn't. I ordered phổ tài today and the broth lacked the flavor profile of an 8 hour boil. I don't taste the star anise, or cinnamon, it doesn't smell fragrant like what pho should smell like. It tastes like instant powder broth. Not even the boujie Quốc Việt pho base, straight up powder. The noodles were still raw and undercooked, or maybe it was stale I don't know. I was craving pho so bad, but too lazy to make it after a heavy night of drinking. This place made me lose my appetite. read more

Pho 999 - Uncooked hard noodles, pho broth is bland. - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

This location has previously been shut down due to health violations. "Restaurants closed due to health hazards in the San Fernando Valley, Oct. 14-27" PLEASE LOOK at the many 1 star reviews regarding-- Bland pho; overcharging; rude staff; discrimination; unsanitary conditions; undercooked or odd-smelling food. An older male staff member in the front was rude, unprofessional & unwelcoming. From the start, we asked for Boba, and he appeared annoyed that we weren't getting food. When I inquired if they mixed flavors, with attitude & hands in the air he loudly said " GO somewhere else where they do that!" Why show anger toward paying customers who are respectful? I recommend avoiding this location! Highly recommend Pho So I at 6450 Sepulveda Blvd, Van Nuys--great pho and excellent service. Also, check out Pho So 1 at 7231 Reseda Blvd, Reseda--amazing Boba with custom flavor mixes. The staff is always friendly and kind! read more

Really disappointed when I came here today. It had been awhile since my last visit but when the pho craving hit and I realized this was on my way home I thought it was meant to be. I was feeling under the weather and so instead of the traditional beef pho I decided to order the chicken pho. First thing to go wrong was that I also requested extra noodles and broth; which their menu stated cost $3.50 extra which was fine by me. I pay, get my receipt and while I'm waiting they inform me that the $3.50 fee for the extra noodles and broth is for dine in. If I wanted that to go the price was actually $7.50. I didn't see anywhere in their menu stating that and not only that but that is a ridiculous up charge for the same item to go. So I cancelled it and just went with the regular chicken pho sans extra anything. Now I get home starving and excited to dig in. Well not only did the chicken broth lack color but it also didn't taste like anything. In fact the only hint of flavor I could get was sweet which was bizarre. The noodles were not the traditional ones; these were round and suuuuuper thin and not to mention there was barely any. The chicken was mediocre; no flavor and dry. I was left so unsatisfied with this soup. Maybe it was just their chicken one? Either way I'm never getting it again. Only reason I left 2 stars is because the restaurant was clean, my food was ready fast, and they made no fuss about my refund. But in reality if I could leave 1.5 stars I would read more

It's not often that I say I literally didn't enjoy anything about a place, but here we are. Got food via UberEats, however, delivery was stupid fast - faster than I've gotten with a lot of other places. Fried veggie egg rolls - somewhat crispy but filled with unidentifiable mush and totally lacking flavor. Even the dipping sauce was miserably bland. Lemongrass curry shrimp with fried rice - tiny shrimps in brown sauce (no lemongrass or curry flavor?). Fried rice was just egg and soy sauce, barely worth the upgrade price. Drowned this with soy sauce to give it some kind of flavor and it is still meh. And the saddest part of all... the vegetable pho. Broth arrived ice cold, which is surprisingly since I've gotten soups delivered from all over the SFV and they rarely come cooler than lukewarm. The broth was .01% "flavor" and the rest was just water. Even after dumping in hoisin, soy sauce, sriracha, basil, jalapeño, the fucking works!, this was bland as fuck. I paid an extra $3.50 for 4 sad shrimps as well. I'm so disappointed that I'm frying up egg rolls from Costco right now. Save yourself the money and disappointment and just go get Panda Express. Sure it's not Vietnamese, but at least it's consistently better than this. At least food will keep make chickens happy when it goes in the compost tomorrow. read more

I used to like this place, but not anymore. The prices have gone up. The portions are small. Not worth it.

The soup was warm and tasty and ordered some eggroll but it didnt come so maybe the old man(chubby short with mean face with ugly teeth)that serve me forgot. Also when i prayed for my meal before eating they all laughed and gave me a dirty look. I feel like this place doesn't welcome Christians. Service was not good, you feel ignored and not welcome. I will never go back to this place again. read more

This place is a good example of many food options, all not very good. We ordered a #1, #3, #22, #23 and #40. All of the Pho were bland and missing the normal spice flavor. The worst was the Banh Canh, which was just another bland pho with "udon noodle." There is much better viet food, I wouldn't come back. Be warned the servers are also not very nice, when we asked for some dipping sauce for the pho ga, they made it seem like we were crazy. read more

The soup was still very hot when I got it. The broth was okay. It was very mild in flavor. I wasn't a fan of the noodles. They seemed overcooked. They were mushy and kept falling apart. There was a decent portion of meat and you can add another container of broth for just 4 dollars so the price is good. It's an old little place and always crowded which is a great sign. I don't think I'd come back. The noodles really got to me. read more
