A true hidden gem! Their flavorful brisket pho was exactly what we needed! Their bahn mi had me melting- I can't recommend this place enough based on the quality of food alone! The server to. us was extremely kind and helpful, and the outdoor seating was a beautiful place to eat and chat. Will absolutely be making this our regular place when we visit again! :) read more

The service here is nice and convenience is great if you're staying at nearby resort. I tried the pad thai and was not a fan, it was not terrible, but was completely drowning in sauce that made it really difficult to eat and overly sweet. Some of their other food looks good, maybe give some other menu items a try and not the pad thai. read more

Pho Big Bear - Pad thai - Chinese Near Me - Big Bear Lake, California

I've always said that Big Bear needs a pho restaurant so I'm glad to see my wishes came true! This restaurant is on the main big bear city road; however it is a bit hidden. The first floor has about 3 tables but there's plenty of seat outside if the weather is nice and I also found out there's an upstairs dining area! Owner says it will be open for the winter season. We ordered 3 bowls of pho and the combination fried rice. The pho broth looked a bit dark but it did have the aromatic flavor. They were pretty generous with the meat but the brisket was dry. The fried rice a bit greasy for my taste but my son enjoyed it. All in all, a great place to fill our tummy and get the pho fix! The owner was super nice and hospitable. read more

I'm very torn on the rating. The pho broth was decent and probably would have have earned 4 stars by itself(or possibly a big bear 5), but the crispy noodles and Chinese pancake were very disappointing. We got 3 bowls of pho and the noodles were overcooked for one bowl, on the soft side for a second bowl, and good on the third bowl. If you're looking for Asian food in big bear, then the pho is probably one of your best options. If you're walking from the streets north of the restaurant, google maps will try to take you through the back, but it's all fenced off and you'll have to walk up to the Main Street to get in. Workers were friendly and they quite a selection of beer options. read more

5 stars amazing The service was amazing. They were checking up on us. The food was great.

I got the crispy noodles with beef and 20 minutes after eating, I had to go to the bathroom and had a bad case of the runs, i am known as having an iron stomach, so I'm afraid to know what was in the crispy noodle and beef dish. My wife and kids got the pho noodles and they were fine. So I guess just stay away from the crispy noodles dish read more

This pho was so good. Definitely worth stopping by in Big Bear. It's outside of the village, parking can be limited. Really enjoyed this pho ob a cold chilly day. Seating was limited the day I went but if open they do have more seating on second floor. read more

As a true lover of pho I had to check this place out and see if their pho was any good. The broth was pretty decent. Not the best bowl of pho I've ever had but hey, when you're in the mountains of big bear and want a bowl of pho this place comes through in a pinch. Service was friendly and the waiter who came to serve the food had a big smile on his face and accommodated my request for additional accoutrements such as lime and I'm sure would have gave additional bean sprouts as well. They also have a wide variety of beers there, not just the traditional Asian beers but they also had some craft beers in their offerings. Overall just a no nonsense pho spot in the small mountain city of big bear. Would come back again one day if staying in big bear and wanted some hot pho or soup read more

Good pho and service i ordered #1 &4 plus spring rolls. Tucked away in a cabin complex

Excellent find in Big Bear! Great food, well done! My wife had a bowl of Pho and I had Orange Chicken. Everything was excellent! Run by the owners with great care. Very very nice! read more

Great food! Very fresh, top notch ingredients, & so healthy. One of our families regular go tos!

Food was good, and the service was great! Definitely my favorite spot during my short vacation in Big Bear!

After hiking in Big Bear, we wanted to find something to eat, and this was one of the closest spot to our hike. The workers are super friendly, but it does seem like the girl working the front was really nervous. Food came out super quick, and was brought out by the cooks. We got the pad Thai, spring rolls, a sprite, and a mango smoothie. The smoothie was really sweet, and tasted like it was made from powder. The spring rolls were probably the best item out of the whole meal, since it was filled with veggies and paired with a really good peanut sauce! The pad Thai was a really good portion size, but it was very saucy and oily. The flavor of it was a little off from typical pad Thai flavors, but texture-wise, it was standard. We didn't see a whole lot of indoor seating, if any, but there's plenty of outdoor seating which made it dog-friendly. There's not a whole lot of Asian spots in Big Bear, so we were still appreciative of this spot offering some Asian flavors. This place is hidden inside the plaza of the Bear Creek Resort. There's parking on the side of the restaurant, or you can possibly also park in the Bear Creek lot and walk over. read more

The Pho is legit. Not as big as some others, but great if your up on Big bear and looking for hit of Pho. Expect mountain pricing.

We ate here on our family's last night and it was so good. The service was awesome, I will definitely come back on my next trip.

I tried this Vietnamese restaurant with a couple friends. The pho they had was okay, but not exceptional. The Bahn Mi sandwich I had would have been good but they used a frozen roll that was thawed but the bottom was hard as a rock which ruined the sandwich. I took it back and they made another one. But any decent chef should know that the bread roll is key to a good sandwich. They did take it back and make it again for me. But again the bread was hard. The food here is a mixture of Chinese, (we had egg noodle), Thai dishes, and Vietnamese dishes. Didn't try the t Not sure if I will try it again. We ate outside. There are a couple tables inside. read more

Unfortunately I was disappointed with my order here. I got the steak and brisket pho and the meat was very questionable and dry which turned me off. The broth and noodles were good. The orange chicken was good, but nothing you couldn't get anywhere else and it wasn't hot. It just seemed like classic frozen orange chicken. We finished the meal with boba Thai tea which was my main excitement for coming. The boba was way overcooked and not sweet while the tea itself barely had flavor. I wish I could say better things as the staff was nice and we got our food quickly, but I would not go back here. After coming on here and reading other reviews of all the bugs found in food I'm afraid I won't be eating my leftovers either. read more

HIDDEN GEM, literally it's hard to find lol. Once you do find it you are in for a treat. Best place to get a huge bowl of soup which will be necessary for this upcoming winter season. The server(didn't catch his name) was awesome and super down to earth. The vibes were great caught the sickest sunset ever. Can't wait to bring everyone I know here! read more

Cute location, a lot of walking to get there after parking. Clean inside, lots of available seating on the outside. Friendly person at the counter. The folks from the kitchen were nice too. The pho was ok at best. Not the most flavorful, but hard to mess up pho. The steam bbq pork bun was disappointing. Took a while for them to come out and the inside was refrigerator cold, meaning it was probably "steamed" in a microwave. I admit I have high standards for pho. If I am up this way again, I'll probably eat somewhere else. read more

First time having pho. Delicious! Charming and cozy restaurant. Quick service as well as well priced.

Usually I dine in but today I decided to call & when I did the phone rang and no one answered so I hung up. Just thinking it was a busy Saturday night I disregarded trying to order out , then my phone rang. Jamie from the restaurant had returned my call and apologized for missing it the first time, she took my order and was as sweet as can be. I wish all restaurants in Big Bear were this attentive. Thank you, Jamie for all of your help and I look forward to continuing to order from here! read more

The Pho is very tasty and the broth is homemade they even sell just the broth it's that good. Shrimp Spring Rolls are yummy and filling especially with their homemade peanut sauce. Combo beef shrimp chicken pad Thai has a nice flavor to it. Service is very friendly and welcoming. It's clean with an open atmosphere has seating downstairs and upstairs. I'll be back to try more items on the menu! read more

Busy Holiday week. Was able to place take out order waited 20 mins for soup. Chicken pho was very good. Veggie broth lacked flavor but added spice and it was good. Hard to find it's in the Fireside Manor parking lot. I loved the custom take out bag. Front service person did a great job handling the stress of lots of orders. read more

My boyfriend and I wanted to try out a new food place in Big Bear. We got takeout. It was ready in time. The portions were large. The food was tasty. It was a little tricky to find, but there are signs to help lead you to the right place. We will definitely be eating here again and trying out the Pho! read more

This Pad Thai was the worst I've ever had! The noodles were undercooked and extremely sour -- totally inedible. I also ordered the Meatball Pho, and the meat was very old and not fresh at all. Seriously, avoid this place! read more

The Pho here is bomb and authentic! The food runner was very friendly and hustling too! Pho was super flavorful with fresh ingredients. Super mom and pop shop vibes if you dont mind that, my wife and I enjoyed the quiet atsmosphere and they serve alcohol as well which was a bonus . We recommend the beef brisket and rare steak pho pretty pleased with the serving size . We didn't mind the price point ,it was fairly reasonable considering how well our experience was . Definitely would reccommend this place and come back when we visit again ! Perfect for the cold environment ! Thank you again for the service @Pho Big Bear ! read more

The cucumber salad was my favorite! Generous portion and delicious flavor. The waiter was kind and I'm very impressed with his knowledge of the Chinese language. The ambience is casual. It's little inside but it has nice outdoor seating. read more

It's so nice to have a pho spot in Big Bear! I personally don't like their pad thai, but everything else I regularly order (meat pho, veggie pho, spring rolls, orange chicken, pork buns) is reliably delicious every time. The staff are always very kind when I go in, even when they are crazy busy. 4 stars instead of 5 due to the location, because navigating through the resort parking lot when the resort and restaurant are busy is a pain in the backside (still worth it for the pho though!) read more

who'd have thought! pho in big bear! best part- they have a huge upstairs that is perfect for seating large parties! they served a pretty good variety of foods, we ordered the chinese style bbq pork buns, broccoli beef, cantonese style crispy noodles, traditional beef pho, combo pho- and they were all pretty good! a plus is the fun selection of drinks- fizzy lychee, sparkling white peach, asian colas... super happy this place exists! we have no photos because we wolfed it all down too fast... read more

Pho Big Bear - option to eat & enjoy outside. - Chinese Near Me - Big Bear Lake, California

We are visiting Big Bear for a holiday weekend from OC. This boba hit the SPOT. I got the Thai tea and mom, who can be a food critic, really enjoyed her refreshing mango smoothie with boba. Prices are super super reasonable. They are a small-family-run business and the staff were so kind. The place smelled authentic and delicious. The food was so so good. All the patrons around us also remarked how good the food was. Small inside seating but the out door patio seating is where it is at with a nice view of the resort and beautiful nature. Highly recommend. Will be back again!! P.s. they are located in the resort (public) with ample parking, but you can't see the store front from the road. read more
