    Pho
    Claudia D.

    I've been coming here for quite a while. I come with coworkers for lunch now and again. I have not been lately since the re-opening but I am itching to go. We always had great service and no wait even though it was lunch rush. Food was always tasty quick and affordable.

    This was yummy authentic tasting food! Came on a whim last minute into the night. The staff was attentive, maybe even too much, but we did stay too late past closing. So now they were wanting to go home but I eat slow. A little rushed at the end but understandable. For our first time here, the food was quickly served. The meat in the pho was slightly chewy, but nice it finished cooking as it was served, broth was done well & good amount of noodles. loved all the appetizers we got as well. I'll have to come back when not as rushed to see the food and ambiance a bit better.

    Overdue review. I brought a co-worker here to celebrate her birthday. She was in the mood for Vietnamese food so it was nice to visit this place nearby. I think I've only eaten pho noodle soup from here. I decided to go with the vermicelli rice noodles with grilled pork. Our dishes all came out rather quickly which was perfect for us. I was very happy I chose this dish because it ended up being very good and comparable to other restaurants or even better than some places in Westminster or Garden Grove. Staff were accommodating and friendly as usual.

    Delicious pho! They also have veggie pho in veggie broth that's a rare find as well. So many new items on their newly published 12/2025 menu! So glad to have this location close to my parents place. It also looks like they recently renovated. Service is fast and friendly. Hope they stay in business for a long time!

    HI ..

    Delicious food, many to choose from, clean place and great customer service. The location is next to Stater's Brothers by Red Hill.

    Pay with CA$H and you get discount for total bill. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I walked in and was able to sit down immediately - no wait at all. They have a big room next to the front receptionist area so just walk over - more privacy as well. Staff was attentive whenever I need something or have questions. Steak Pho - No ngo gai or green lime but it was still good. Could use more meats though. The broth was quite good and you can taste the Pho flavor. It came out pretty quick. Lots of customer order Pho tonight. Value platter was ok. I wanted to try it but if you like certain Pho or Rice plate, I would just order those. Next time, I'll probably stick to white rice. The flavor rice was not my preferred taste. Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio was good as well. Meats were well marinated, perfectly grilled and tender. Sauce was right on - not too salty or too light. Same as the Rice Plate - good. The flavor here defintely has that touch of authentic Vietnamese food and we don't have to drive all the way to Bolsa. Prices were reasonable. Parking - plenty in the front.

    Good service, pretty large restaurant! Nothing fancy inside but good for satisfying a viet food craving without having to go all the way to Little Saigon. My friend got pho and I did a vermicelli noodle. I did feel like maybe it was a little light on meat but in the end, it was enough though! Easy parking and they take credit card too.

    I had been craving pho so I asked a good friend of mine for some recommendations and she said this place was good and close to where I live. I came here on a Tuesday night around 8 not realizing they close at 8:30 but I was promptly seated and served. I enjoyed the food and the service was great.

They put real bits of ginger in the tea which I thought was great and helped give my immune system a little boost before getting in an enclosed aircraft for my flight.

They even offer tongue which I've never ever seen on a menu before except at my mama's house. I ordered just a regular bowl of bún bò huế. They give you so much meat, it's insane. Moreover, they include broth bones where there are still tiny morsels of meat still attached. As of it wasn't already giving my mama's house, you can also find nước mắm on the tables where you can concoct a whole dipping situation. Ten. What really sold me was #23 - tôm chua đu đủ Đặc biệt. It's so simple - fermented shrimp, pork belly, herbs, and some rice. This is my favorite comfort dish. The combination of papaya/shrimp, pork belly, herbs along with a bite of rice is the most perfect bite. Again, I've never ever seen this dish offered at a restaurant so I was absolutely beside myself. Not only do they serve this dish here, you can buy a jar of the tôm chua to go.

The broth still had depth and richness, but the saltiness overshadowed some of the other flavors. Because I've had better experiences here before, I am still giving it 4 stars and would likely return. I'm hoping this visit was simply an exception rather than the new normal.
