New to the area and not an expert in pho, but it is my comfort/go to food. We ordered here the other week for the first time, chicken pho and beef pho. The broth in my chicken pho was VERY sweet and the noodles had kind of a harder texture. I unfortunately wasn't able to finish it. My husbands beef pho had tripe in it, which he wasn't expecting. I know it's a standard but it wasn't listed in the ingredients and he isn't a fan. And then the flavor was a miss on the broth and meat for him as well. Not sure if this was an off night, but a night where I had been looking towards my comfort food it was a little disappointing. read more

Went in the restaurant and ordered the chicken pho To go , I got back to my place which was only 5 min away from the restaurant, and my pho was ICE COLD!!!!!!!! Not lukewarm ICE COLD ! And I read another review on here same thing happened to someone else. What a disgrace. read more

I ordered the shank and brisket Pho with an order of egg rolls. The broth is not as sweet as Pho So 1, I like it more and the pork egg rolls were tasty. read more

Delish!!! Randomly found this little hole in the wall and it was packed for lunch so you know it's good!!! I had the beef Pho and Thai tea and I would give it a high 8/10. Good prices too! I will come back and try the spring rolls next time! read more

Absolutely never ordering here again. Just got off the phone with whoever answered there and was told "idk sometimes people mess up the order" when I asked why would you put raw meat on someone's food. Then they hung up on me when I asked them to remake it and re deliver. This is absolutely so unacceptable!! read more

Pho 999 - How do you explain this? So careless !!!!! - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

One of my favorite pho restaurants in the valley. Fast service and food is delicious! Ambiance is chill and clean. read more

I was pleasantly surprised with the food quality here! It was soooo much better than Pho So 1. Cha gio was good and crispy. They gave us lot of lettuce to wrap the cha gio! Pho Xe Lua was a B+ and I would definitely return to have another hot pho! Broth was good and tasty. We also ordered com bi cha suon nuong. It was a B+ as well! Overall, I was very satisfied and their prices were very reasonable. Staff was nice and friendly! Store seems clean enough. Utensils could be cleaner in my opinion. After you finish your meals, you can pay at the cashier. Parking is easy to find. They do play old vietnamese music and 1990's English songs in the restaurant though! I highly recommend anyone who wants some good pho in the area! :) I cannot wait to return! :) read more

First time trying this place , it was good, I had the shrimp pho and the spring rolls amazing!! I asked for chili oil , they didn't have any :( food was stop great!, will be eating here again read more

My goto spot, one of the best restaurants for Vietnamese food, very authentic good service. Pho comes out quick too I know what to order already, I'm ordering while we're walking to our table... Never gets old. They also open an hour before any other pho spots which makes it a plus for me. Plenty of seating, kid friendly, smoothies w/ boba are pretty bomb too overall one of the great pho restaurants in the valley. Make sure you wrap the egg rolls in the lettuce with the rest of the veggies and dip it in the sauce! read more

Pho 999 - Combination pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

This a local go-to spot that is tasty and reasonably priced. Authentic pho and peaceful ambiance.

After a long drive from Vegas and having only stopped to stretch and relieve ourselves, Pho 999 was a welcome final stop before heading home! The place is pretty spacious, not that busy when we came, it's a tad cold though as all fans and the AC I think was at full blast! Anyway, we know exactly what we want and ordered Pho Dac Biet, I have to say the food came pretty quick as if they were expecting us! The broth was really nice, hot and tasty not to mention the generous amount of meat that went with it (brisket, tripes and something else) the side of sprouts, basil and jalapeno came on the side served in a giant platter - needless to say, I was pretty happy! We also ordered their egg-rolls which to my surprise was exceptionally good! Unlike the egg-rolls I've tasted, theirs was jam packed with stuffing and not just all wrappings! I also liked the pickled veggies that came with it - delicious! Overall, I am very happy with this place and their Pho! Being I often visit the valley, this place would definitely be in my list for a go to soup house! Cheers! read more

Pho 999 - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

This review is kind of a twofer but unfortunately Pho 999 has to take the brunt. I've been intensely craving pho for weeks now, and with summer seemingly never ending I just couldn't wait for a chilly day to enjoy a delicious bowl of chicken pho. I ordered via Door Dash a chicken pho and a flank steak pho. I had to run to the grocery store to pick up some Kikkoman Gluten Free Hoisen sauce for my boyfriend (who is recently gluten free). I set the pickup time for 5:20pm. I got the alert it was ready at 5:00pm. This isn't really a huge deal, I mean it's just soup so I'm not worried. When I arrive at Pho 999 the woman inside has absolutely no idea what I mean by, "I'm here to pick up an order." She is just so confused and the see my order sitting on a table so I point to it and tell her that is mine after she tells me she didn't get an order by my name. Again no big deal I'm patient, not upset it's just a language barrier and/or maybe she didn't even get the order and someone else took care of it. We both have a chuckle and I'm on my way. The real issue is when I get home and my boyfriend and I begin eating. My chicken pho was good, not the best but mediocre. 3 stars. My boyfriend's; the flank steak pho had a very large noodle like thing with offshoots of other noodle like things with small bumps all over in his soup with a huge piece of fat and gristle. He gets flank steak pho as that is his pho of choice and this is the first time anything even remotely similar to this has been in it. It was extremely off putting for both of us and he ended up just throwing his pho away. We asked for a refund on only the flank steak but of course Door Dash is giving us the run around. We will probably be avoiding this location in the future. Got to go! My boyfriend is still hungry and now we have to get something else! Hanger is real! read more

They used to give a good amount of noodle portions but now the portions are so small it's ridiculous!!!! I ordered an extra large and I finished the noodles in 4 bites and I'm only 100lbs!!! Before, an extra large would last me 2-3 meals but now I can finish it in one meal....thats saying a lot! They also NEVER read the side notes nor do they give enough broth!!! I ordered an extra large with extra noodles but you'd think they would at least fill it to the line but no, they give you such little broth it's VERY DISAPPOINTING!! I love this place but this has just gotten too expensive for such a small portions and not reading the notes. Forgot to take photos because I'm in the middle of multiple surgeries and dealing with excruciating pain and on disability so it's money i should be saving but next time I order, I will post them read more

Been coming to this place since 2001 and will continue to come. The food is flavorful and the price is very reasonable

Solid Vietnamese restaurant in the valley! I like it a bit better than Pho So 1 across the street because it's not as busy and I prefer their egg rolls and vermicelli bowls. I also find their pho broth to be more flavorful. There are plenty of parking in this plaza. Customer service is good--haven't had any issues unlike some other reviewers. read more

Came here to pick up lunch. I usually go to Pho So 1 down the street but had seen this place and wanted to try it. I ordered two vermicelli bowls - one with pork and shrimp, the other with beef and shrimp. Also got a soda chanh and an iced coffee. He said it would take 10 minutes, so I hopped in the car and went to pick it up. Vermicelli bowls were good - a little on the light side but overall really tasty. Iced coffee was strong and soda chanh was on point. Have to come back to try their pho but overall a good place! read more

I really like this spot cuz it's so close to my house the number 3 always hits. The Vietnamese coffee is on a different level so freaking good too. Service is great and quick never really wait. their restaurant does need an update tho. read more

Fantastic pho! I finally found some pho that reminded me of my days growing up near Little Saigon in Orange County. I ordered #7 and it came with generous meat portions. I had big chunks of tendon, the flank steak was tender and well- trimmed. The meat quality was better than more expensive places near Ventura Blvd and Woodman. The vegetables were crisp and fresh. Lots of rice noodles. The broth was legitimately rich and made in house. It was a perfect! Next time, I'll ask for noodles on the side. I had to order extra broth. Portions are huge. It took we 3 sittings to finish it. Parking was okay in the crowded lot. I'm not one who needs to park at the entrance. I immediately found a spot in the middle second row. My wait wasn't long at 12:30pm on a Monday. I signed my name on the board. Reviewed the menu, then went to wash my hands. Came back and 2 minutes later I was seated. I immediately placed my order and had my food in less than 5 minutes. Customer service was polite, good and effective. It was super busy. I appreciate the fast and efficient service. No need for extra formalities during a lunch rush. The cashier is an expert multitasker and works well under pressure. read more

Pho 999 - #7 - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Really a 3 star for food, but I'll bump to a 4 for the super speedy service. Literally got a hot bowl of pho in less than 5 minutes. The broth was decent, and the meat quality was average. The noodles were perfect though, soft with a bit of bite still. I would skip the shrimp and pork spring rolls again, the sauce was very thin and watery, not thick and flavorful. read more

The most incredible pho and beef and vermicelli salad on the planet. Lean, high quality beef sliced thinly and char grilled to perfection. I've been coming here for 20 years. Did I mention their prices are still extremely reasonable? Restores my faith in humanity. I've tried a lot of pho. It's the best. read more

Pho 999 - Vietnamese Near Me - Van Nuys, California

I love this place so much. The food is delicious and the staff is always really nice and attentive however, this is the second time I come here and there is a strong overpowering chemical smell. And I'm not talking about your regular home cleaning supply smell. I'm talking about an extremely toxic and nauseating smell, which makes it unbearable to sit and eat. This is the second time I leave because of this smell and it's frustrating because I drive over 20 minutes to eat there. Please stop using whatever it is! read more

3.5 stars. Came here on a whim for lunch because my friends and I were craving pho. There were plenty of seats but the restaurant was definitely filling up by the time we left. All of us ordered pho which came out super quickly. I got mine with rare steak and brisket. It came with lots of noodles but my beef was kind of stringy and chewy. The bean sprouts also didn't seem the freshest but the soup broth was good. Overall it hit the spot and was conveniently located closer to me but there's definitely better. read more

Pho 999 was alright. The pho is good. I like their Com Tam dish & egg rolls. However, back in pre-COVID 2020 days, Pho 999 of Van Nuys also used to offer their Signature Dish: the "Ca Bo Lo" (Viet. Transl. as Oven Roasted Whole Catfish) for the Groupie Meal. Unfortunately, after 2020, they told me that only the Reseda Pho 999 have it & not this Van Nuys Pho 999... PLEASE BRING BACK THE OVEN ROASTED CATFISH to your menu!!! read more

I have tasted better pho's before, so this one tasted mediocre to me. Neither broth, noodle, or meat stood out to be spectacular in any way. I could barely finish 75% of it with the help of basil. Springs rolls (with shrimps) were good. We especially liked the peanut sauce that comes with the rolls as it complimented the rolls. Music, decoration, and the atmosphere gave an impression as if we were in Thailand, and we liked that. read more

I am rating this 3 stars for all of the best reasons! Trust!! You don't want to be eating at a pho place that has great service, and this one does not. The restaurant was packed and they still sat us rather quickly. Consider it no frills - sure there's a neon sign in the window, but tables are squeezed together for efficiency. Fine with that. You can tell it's family run, everyone is working in multiple roles. They took our order, then the table next to ours order, and somehow, their food came out way before ours. I thought it was bc my gf ordered a plate dinner instead of pho like the rest of us, but then her dinner came out and 10 minutes later mine was nowhere to be seen? We flagged 3 people down and asked for the pho. It was super tasty when I got it. I ate it all. Yum. I'm very happy with my dining experience here and am rating it 3 stars with my full heart Recommend: pho ga and ga ro ti with a fried egg! read more

Not Sanitary. My friend order pho and found a roach inside it. They still made us pay for our whole meal.

I order Postmates from this location every once in a while and I definitely recommend. I always bother them asking for a lot of extra limes and they always oblige. The pho is always delicious and very neatly packed. I appreciate a business that is organized and listens to customer requests. Thank you. read more

I got the vegetarian pho. I thought it was OK. I got it for take-out, and the soup was warm. I guess it makes sense since they use Styrofoam containers. They did do a good job of packing it. I just think it needed a bit more flavor; however, the veggies were very fresh. read more

It was a very rainy and cold kind of day, so I thought a soup would be so appropriate to warm up. I ordered a brisket and rare steak pho From this Vietnamese place I was trying via Postmates, and it was delivered in a reasonable amount of time. But I'd like to Kament mainly on the freshness of the ingredients of the pho: The thin sliced meat, rare steak and brisket was very tender. And the vegetables were scallions and mint leafs were so crispy and fresh The dish came with rice noodles, and a delicious broth perfectly seasoned not too salty at all. I will recommend this place and will re-order from them anytime! read more

Ordered delivery and added instructions about my food allergy. I also called the restaurant and checked with the manager who assured me they would be very careful. The restaurant still put jalapeños in with the food. If you have a food allergy, avoid this place! Even with instructions in Vietnamese and a phone call to the manager they still put jalapeños in my food, which I'm very allergic to. Avoid this place!

Solid pho in the valley. If you live in the valley you know that this place is a desert for good pho. I tried pho so 1 since it had so many good reviews and it was also conveniently located next to 99 ranch for post grocery snackage but no, just cross the dang street. Pho 999 is 999% better in every way. The broth is solid, noodles solid, spring roll solid. We tried ordering bun bo hue off menu and although the chefs were kind enough to give it a go, it just didn't hit the flavor mark for us. We appreciated the effort and willingness to try though. Even though everything was take out only, the packaging was solid, no spills or anything missing. They also included mini sriracha and mini hoisin sauce packets which was really cute and helpful. Would highly recommend for any one craving pho in the valley !!! Looking forward to the next time a craving hits and it's cold out ! read more

Servers were good. The place is clean! Food came in less than 5 minutes. Good and may be bad as well - could likely have been prepped before service time. The rice paper, shrimp and chicken inside the spring rolls were dry; the peanut sauce was also bland. Somehow, I can't taste the peanut. The special pho came, broth was a bit cold and bland even after adding the fixins and sauce. To no avail. This is probably the saddest pho and rolls I had. read more

Honestly I'm very picky with Pho but after coming here about 11 times i can honestly say this place is amazing and bomb, my only 2 things bad about this place is the rest rooms are very small, and that the service is slow. But the food makes everything better, I really love the food, there pho is so fresh and they pack your pho with meat and everything. I really am happy about coming here all the time, i literally will go out my way. This time I came with my little sister and i think she enjoyed herself as well, that makes me happy seeing her happy. I really recommend this place if you want good fresh pho. read more

I can't believe this is a real restaurant.. worst pho I've ever had, the meats were so stinky, which usually happens when you use low quality meat. I should've checked Yelp reviews. I just door dashed the closest viet restaurant. Everything came cold so I had to reheat again. read more
