If you live in LA you know it's really hard to find good pho, esp in Ktown. But this place is really good!! I stumbled across pho byob because of a tiktok and I knew it was gonna slap because of the song choice. The owner was really nice, it was my first time and he told me you order upfront and you build your own pho. For pho with one choice of meat it's $15. I got the meat ball (bo vien) pho. First thing I tried was the soup and it was very homey. The owner also gave me complimentary passion fruit juice. It was super tasty, a little on the sweet side but still yummy. The restaurant itself is very cute. I love the decor and there was a wall of Vietnam. Parking is $3 cash valet or you can try to find street parking. It's right next to stagger. Honestly everyone should check out this place. If you're ever sick, hungover, or just want pho come here. Matter of fact get some pho while you get your matcha! read more

The soup is thin and not too herbal, the noodles break so easily I can't lift it to eat without it immediately breaking on my chopsticks, splashing everywhere. Decent amount of brisket but wasn't the best texture or taste. Tough and fishy. The taste is decent and not super oily but not a rich pho flavor. Interior beautiful and feels like a good place to bring a business partner for lunch. Music is not too loud and distracting. Price is comparable to most sit down spots. I like that they have a separate kiosk for to-go orders and they have a garnish bar for onions, limes, etc. read more

Best pho I have ever tasted. I enjoyed the oxtail pho. The broth was complex and refined. The meat was fall off the bone tender.

We finally had the chance to try this spot, and I'm glad we did. I first discovered Pho Byob because I charge my EV in the extended parking area of the property. Since I usually charge at night, I'd never been able to visit during business hours. Today, my family and I decided to charge the EV during the day and grab a bite while we waited. Because I typically charge for no more than 30 minutes, we came in with a sense of urgency--dine in, eat well, and head out. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed. The decor had a clean, minimalist "Japandi" vibe--where Japanese elegance meets Scandinavian simplicity. It created a calm, inviting atmosphere. We were greeted by a friendly cashier who took the time to explain their simple yet highly customizable menu. We ordered the brisket beef pho combo with passion fruit juice, and a brisket pho salad with thick noodles. Both dishes arrived promptly and were beautifully presented. Pho Byob features a self-serve station for utensils, sauces, and garnishes, which added to the convenience. The flavors were solid--on par with many pho spots we've tried before. The broth was rich and satisfying, and the portion sizes were just right. I especially enjoyed the pho salad; it was fresh, and the thick noodles added a satisfying texture that elevated the dish. The passion fruit juice was delicious--so much so that we found ourselves wishing for a refill. It's clear this place pays attention to every detail, from the food to the decor--even the bathroom, which was simple yet elegant in design. If you're charging your EV during their business hours, I highly recommend stopping by. You'll enjoy a fulfilling meal and likely leave satisfied just in time for your EV to be fully charged and ready to go. read more

Wonderful !! Seriously a great little place to get a fresh sit down meal during a busy work day. The restaurant is clean and the ambiance is very serene. I felt so relaxed in there listening to the beautiful soothing Japanese music. I forgot inwas in the industrial part of town. The pho was excellent. I truly enjoyed this experience. I also noticed they did not ask for a tip. Wonderful friendly service. They bring your bowl to your table in an aesthetically pleasing tray and ceramic bowl. It was served very quickly. Today's economy is tough for everyone. I try not to eat out as much anymore due to high prices but It's nice to go into a food service establishment and not be forced into tipping. read more

best pho ever good customer service place is 10/10 everything super clean & very nice

Pleasantly surprised to see a nice pho restaurant in vernon. it was raining and I was a little sick so wanted some hot pho. The oxtail were cooked well and was soft and has lots of meat. The pho soup had the right flavor . I requested less noodles since I don't want to waste it. Total was around $20 which is reasonable . Parking was easy today but it could be challenging . Will definitely go back again. read more

Ordered this spot for pickup as I was excited to try a new pho place nearby. Order took about 25 minutes to be ready and pickup was easy. Staff was very polite and friendly. The restaurant is clean and cute inside with plant decor and plenty of sunlight. The Pho Brisket was light and refreshing! read more

I stop by around 1-2 times a week as I love pho. The people here are friendly. The soup is good despite it can be a little pricy when combining different meats. I typically pay around 28 for the soup and spring rolls. I like the passion fruit drink but it's gone in like 2-3 sips . A lot of ice little bit of juice. read more

Yay for a new restaurant in Vernon and even better that it specializes in pho! We don't have many lunch choices for those who work in this area so always pleased when we have a new one. Love that you get to make the meal your way. It can get pricey with the add ons but the food taste great! The space is small but can seat at least 20 people. Very clean and the service is great. We had the waygu pho, brisket pho, and the fresh spring rolls. Yum! Will definitely be back soon. read more

This new restaurant has very good pho salad. I've never tried their pho but the salad was great if you like more veggie feeling and not-too-hot dish for summer. The vibe is very Asian. I can even smell the plants and it's very relaxing! The tray is self service so be sure to store them away when you're done. read more

* great new spot in vernon * parking space available * nice indoor seating * food is GREAT * Thai tea yes please This is a great new addition to this plaza! With a lot of fast service food - sandwiches and burgers... this is a nice warm noodle and soup addition to the plaza! I loved the indoor seating and the availability of dining in instead of all the Togo options. The indoor ambiance is great. I can see myself eating in here a lot with coworkers and friends. I ordered... Pho bowl - soup - fat noodles (thicker noodles) with tendon and then I made it a combo that came with one egg roll and a drink Pho bowl with soup and noodles $10 Add one : meat choices vary prices Tendon $3 - I personally didn't like the tendon meat pieces in the pho so I would order a different meat next time Make it a combo $5 The ONE egg roll was AMAZING!! I would want to order a whole side of egg rolls instead of the combo but the drink was really good! I ordered to go and the quality of the to go bowl was free at! Really recommend this place to people who love pho!! read more

Thai tea had a good flavor, only thing I didn't like is that it was 80% ice which I finish in two sips, I as the cashier and she said that was normal, that is the way the owners want it OK!!!! OTHER THAN THAT, IT IS DECENT PLACE read more

New Pho place!! Highly recommend! I tried the pho salad. So delicious I'm looking forward to trying the soup next time! Ambiance is so relaxing and enjoyable; next visit will be with my coworkers. Service is quick, excellent and noticeably patient. She did not hesitate to invite me inside to take a closer look at their menu options... I wasn't expecting to have Pho for lunch, but her friendly demeanor was super inviting. I figured why not try it...She made sure I was happy with my order! I'll be back soon to try the soup even if it's 110 degrees outside... so worth it!! Wishing them much good fortune at this location! read more

Vernon is a very industrial area with warehouses and not many options for food at all. so when this spot opened up, we had to try it. One of the employees explained that this is a new concept of building your own pho, you can choose between thick or thin noodles, choose any and add as many meat options as you want. So that's the pho. Now the pho salad, basically pho but without the soup, they give you three things on the side to go with it, fish sauce, soup, and spicy garlic crisp sauce. The soup was flavorful but not heavy, it is a bit on the oiler side if you're looking for clear broth. Fish sauce is fish sauce, self explanatory. The spicy garlic sauce though, you have to mix your salad with this for even more flavors. 10/10 You can upgrade your main items to a combo with spring roll and a drink of your choice. We got the pass fruit and Thai tea which were both amazing. Thai tea isn't overly sweet which was perfect for my tastebud, and the passion fruit was refreshing. Service was top notch, when the employee explained and checked up on us, we thought he was the owner!!!! Interior was also very well done, love the aesthetic. Apparently all the tables, chairs, light shades, etc. were all customized in Vietnam. The flower light shade above the cashier counter I is extreme cute Overall, this restaurant did an awesome job at keeping it simple because everything was simply, so good. read more

Wowwww! The homestyle broth was life changing! Probably the best I've ever had! Delicious!! I did the traditional thin noodles with shrimp. Everything is pretty much self serve. You go up to order, get your utensils, and if not busy they'll bring your food to your table. After you're done you return the tray to the station. So happy there's a great new pho addition to the plaza! read more

So bomb !! I got spring rolls and a passion fruit drink to go and it was so filling. Will be going back to try the pho.

This is the most expensive beef powder I have ever eaten! It costs $30 a bowl, and the amount is a small share of other Vietnamese powder shops! Start a bowl of beef bone powder I ordered! It comes up with beef powder. I told the clerk! Make up another beef bone, one big bone and two small bones, and add me almost $9! read more

Great staff! Plus delicious broth! All food is fresh! Delicious spring rolls! Definitely coming back! This place is also very clean and very nice inside. This is my second time back and I ordered all this. read more

I would give this a 5 star for service and ambience, beautiful location! But the pho was bland, It had very little flavor. I've been trying pho places in china town this past week, so happy I found a place close by, but its expensive and it has no flavor. I'm a bit disappointed since their menu says the broth is left simering for hours, but it really doesn't taste like it read more

I just left from here, I ordered a bowl of pho from this place, and it was just okay. The flavor was lacking, and they hardly gave any mint leaves or sprouts. They serve it in a big bowl, but there were hardly any noodles. I ordered it with shrimp, and they only put in two shrimps, which was really upsetting because I didn't get any protein. Now I have to spend more money on food because I didn't get full. The lady at the register even made a comment asking the cooks where the shrimp was, and she was very friendly--actually, extremely friendly. The restaurant is nice and clean, but they definitely need to work on giving enough portions so people can get full. read more

This place is a must! Love the Build your own bowl idea!! The ambiance was amazing! Beautiful decor & calming ambiance. Service was exceptional, the man at the front was so helpful and convinced me to try the fresh thick noodles. Will definitely be coming back! And their passion fruit tea was delicious! Even went home with two jars of their handmade chili I got the thick noodles, with brisket, rib eye, tripe (freaking delicious), and tendon. She got the thick noodles, meatballs, and wagyu Broth was savory and piping hot! 5/5!!! read more

Pho Byob - Awesome service! Good food... definitely coming here again. - Vietnamese Near Me - Vernon, California

Unbelievable. The website said this place was open, so I drove 2 hours just to get some delicious pho; only to find it closed. No notice, no update, just locked doors. On top of that, the sign on the door says they're open every day except Sunday and yet, here we are. This isn't the first time either they're always closed for some random reason. Worst experience. Never coming back to this location again. read more
