One of my fav places to go! Service is great and food always comes out quick. Beef stew pho is my favorite. It's so tender and flavorful!

The food was good and had plenty of variety on the menu. The service was friendly also.

Rewind back maybe five years ago. My friends and I dined here and really enjoyed it. Fast forward to the present and we came back and the place is still the same with excellent food and service. We've been missing out! My new favorite appetizer is Banh Xeo, egg crepe that has Tumeric, sprouts, onions, shrimp and meat. You wrap the pieces of the crepe and wrap it in lettuce leaves and mint and dip it in the sweet and sour sauce. It is so good! Now, Pho Hang, our other favorite pho place doesn't have this item on their menu, so Pho Cali is number one IMO. The Bùn here is plentiful. I usually get the #27, it has grilled meat (beef or pork), shrimp and egg roll. It is always so good. The Hùeu Tièu is great also, we've had the seafood combination and it is packed with lots of seafood and delicious chicken broth. The Phô here is the best in the area. We've also had the Khao Man Gai, which you won't find anywhere else in the area. I first had it in Portland and only know of one other restaurant in the area that serves it. Theirs is worth saving the money in gas. I could go on and on about the wide array of dishes they serve here. There's so many choices! Also, there's only one server but she always has a smile, even on her busiest of days. I keep forgetting to get her name but she's always so attentive and friendly. Pho Cali is more than five stars for me! Highly recommend you give them a try! read more

I had the rare steak pho. It was the most flavorful broth I've ever had. I also had an ORGANIC green tea which was slightly sweet just enough to take away the bitterness. The service was so sweet and respectful and the establishment was clean and so well kept! There is a reason the rating is so high! read more

Excellent Bo Kho it was so rich and flavorful with high quality meat and bahn mi came with pate automatically ! The pho broth was delicate and had rich aromatic flavors. The service was friendly and efficient. read more

Super Americanized pho/noodle shop. Came here to enjoy dinner since my guy frequently visits Pho Cali whenever his is in town for work tingz. Here, you will find the typical traditional viet food such as: egg rolls, spring rolls, rice plates, vermicelli bowls, banh mi, stir fry noodles, bob& even a few dishes you wouldn't find at a pho restaurant [goi ga & hotpot]. Two younger gentleman managing the front and with the restaurant being fairly slow, things just didn't run smoothly. Firstly, Pho Cali is supposedly known for their BBH... but the dish isn't listed on the menu??? I ask if they offer fresh noodles [obviously for an additional cost] and the employee seemed to have issues comprehending my question/the item?? He eventually tells me that they do. Buys: *Organic Jasmine Green Tea [50% sweetness] *Shrimp & Grilled Pork Spring Rolls *Bun Bo Hue [BECAUSE THIS IS ONE OF THEIR SPECIALTIES] *Seafood Combination Noodle Soup w/ Fresh Rice Stick Noodles [additional $1] Food: There seemed to be issues everywhere! Shrimp & Grilled Pork Spring Rolls were mediocre. Even with the marinated grilled pork being listed as a "Best Item", it totally fell short with flavorings- meat was bland and the only taste you got from the dish is the peanut sauce the spring rolls come with. Bun Bo Hue was actually one of the better dishes that was ordered. Not sure why it isn't on the menu but it needs to be. Soup was a little bland and could have used some shrimp paste but still very doable. Noodles were cooked well and the ingredients were plentiful. Seafood Combination Noodle Soup with fresh rice noodles was a mess. First off, the noodles were indeed rice noodles but very thick in width and was the shape of squares and rectangles. These noodles are clearly meant for chow fun, dry dishes. Soaked in soup, they simply fell apart. The bowl was full of carrot, celery, and cabbage?? I totally didn't expect that and if I knew in advance, I wouldn't have purchased. This dish could only be classified as a very Americanized version of Vietnamese hu tieu [too similar to a chicken noodles soup with those specific veggies]. My seafood soup didn't contain the squid pieces but the chef caught that mistake and had a separate bowl delivered to the table. The green tea with 50% sweetener arrived sweet af! If that's 50% sweetened, I'd hate to imagine what the full blown drink at full sweetener capacity is. YIKES!! 2 stars at best. The guys running the show were nice but they were lacking in so many ways. Not only was the meal not really good to begin with but the employees forgot our herbs/veggie plates needed to complete our noodle dishes. My guy had to flag someone down and request for more than one item. I, unfortunately, wouldn't voluntarily come back. Kudos on the huge portions but this place isn't for me. read more

Craving Banh Mi, Vietnamese sandwich, because we had such a positive experience at Duc Huong in San Jose, see previous Yelp. Quality/Quantity - Okay, Got the following: #14 Grilled Pork Sandwich - Again, I was so impressed with my daughter's SJ sandwich (the one she would NOT give me more than one bite of), I had to try to repeat the experience. Sorry, but this fell very short. This sandwich was bread-forward, and if you look closely at the pictures, there were too many cilantro stalks. I have another picture that I will not post of all the stalks I took off the sandwich... #12 Grilled Chicken Sandwich - Okay. The bread also did not taste like it was baked in house or fresh. Both were good size, but not as large as Duc Huong. Atmosphere - Small local restaurant. Indoor seating. Open 7 days a week from 10:30am to 9:00pm. Smart to NOT put prices on your takeaway menus in this current environment as prices for everything continues to go up. Plenty of mall parking. Service - Good. Generous with condiments, none of which were needed for our sandwiches. Price - $14 and change; 10% cash discount included, thank you. Credit card cost $16.10. Normal price is $7.49 for each sandwich. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2016 when you took over the business. I am sure your other foods are great; I look forward to trying that and updating this review. read more

Unfortunately today's visit was very disappointing. Noodles for both pho were falling apart into small pieces (2 inches or less) or clumped together forming hard chunks. The rib and tendon were not cooked long enough for it to easily fall apart and soften. read more

I haven't written a review in quite some time and this restaurant was worth getting out of my review hibernation. I have eaten in many and I mean many pho restaurants throughout Sacramento and the Bay Area and holy moly... this is by far the best and I mean the most delicious flavorful pho I have ever eaten and sipped on. This is such a gem! We also enjoyed the shrimp egg rolls but my goodness their pho broth here is soooo authentically bomb. read more

No more for me. Brought the family here yesterday for the last time. We come here because it's close to home and the food is good. But the service is really bad. Nobody in the restaurant and we get seated at the dirtiest table in there. So we move to another. We order appetizers and ask for small plates and one plate wasn't even washed. Being one of the few Pho Restaurants in town, they got to do better. I will come back but not anytime soon. Lol. read more

Original bang mi here legit. Don't wander off with other choices. Pho is very good as well. read more

Pho is ok and probably the best you can get in Roseville. Fried rice is top tier. Sweet and charred. Dont get the lobster pho. Trust. Vietnamese coffee is good. Been here multiple times. read more

Love the food here. The waiter was a little strange the last time we came in. Every time someone in our party ordered (I think 10 in total), he questioned us to make sure we had had Vietnamese food and attempted to deter us from the items we wanted to order because "you're not Vietnamese." We really didn't order anything exotic so it just made ordering take longer and become somewhat combative. The food came out quickly and was delicious. read more

We ordered a to-go of the Goi Cuon and grilled pork Banh Mi. Both were really good and affordable. The service was also really quick since I couldn't call in the order. As for the restaurant itself, it was kinda messy and nondescript. Definitely a to-go only place for me. BTW, bring cash since they give a 10% discount. read more

Excellent Phō choices. Easy, relaxed ambience. Solid service. No frills (in a good way).

Every time I have came here the food has always been tasty and exceptional. The customer service and staff are amazing. The restaurant itself is clean. My husband and I come here at least once a month. Highly recommend. read more

Great food man I got the Beef Pho and it was really good Pho. Their portions are the best. HUGE portions you actually feel filling. Just expect to spend some time, not like 10 minutes. Only thing worth improving is the ambiance. Feels like they dont maintain their chairs and walls and tables, etc. They spend all their time on the food which I agree. But now if they want to be known, they need to market themselves because they are located at a small strip mall. Their dishes are good just get their specialty Pho since that is what they are known and named for. Dont try and go for some bougie food like a steak, they are not a steak place, they are a Pho place. PHO cali, its common sense. read more

Love the food here, it never disappoints! I drive from Roseville since there's nothing comparable there and it's worth it. Clean hole in the wall restaurant with good service. Don't hesitate to try this DELICIOUS Vietnamese spot. read more

I can no longer recommend this place. Every time I visit, it gets worse and worse. This used to a regular dining location because it makes the best combination beef/steak pho. It's so packed full of flavor, and they don't skimp on the meat. But everything else is so bad here. The spring rolls are dry and taste like paper. The peanut butter sauce tasted like light chocolate. How does that even happen? The chicken pho was also really bland. My wife pointed out a few places where they lacked cleanliness (hair in soup, dirty glasses of water). They're consistently good at beef pho but bad at everything else. read more

We ordered a grilled pork banh mi, fresh shrimp spring rolls, a Vietnamese iced coffee, and a shrimp and grilled chicken vermicelli bowl with an egg roll. All were delicious! The pork banh mi was warm and the French bread tasted fresh and crunchy. The coffee was a bit strong for us, but it was flavorful and a refreshing pick me up. The spring rolls and peanut sauce were also really fresh. I really liked my vermicelli bowl and I enjoyed the mix of flavors of the veggies, the meat, and fish sauce on a hot summer day. Overall, everything tasted fresh and this place is easily the best Vietnamese spot in the Rocklin-Roseville area. We will be back here again next time that I am in the area. read more

Finally found a local Pho soup place ! The people are wonderful & so is the food!!! We've been looking for a Vietnamese place in Lincoln but this one is close by in Rocklin. read more

I've been here a few times and the food has always been very delicious and clean, Service is great!

Food was great, portions are generous, soups was steaming hot. Perfect for a rainy day

Legit Vietnamese food, a must go to if you love Pho or Banh mi. They even have the crepe!!! I love that this place when im in the Area. I normally order the Rare Steak Pho and Chicken Bahn mi. Not many in the area has authentic taste, because some of the area have American flavor where is bland and boring. Try their Crepe that is bomb! If you never have them, its the close to Vietnam flavor. But again everything in Vietnam taste better and cheap but again in US this is as Authentic you can get Vietnamese food. Many Vietnamese Restaurant tend to cater American pallets but not this spot, they keep the menu and flavor the wat it suppose to be, but you can ask them if you dont like hot pepper or any other items ghat Americans dont like. read more

Best in Sacramento. Been to sooo many pho places but we always come here. Service is great, food is great, we love it. Our kids love it too

We don't get to eat at this place often since it is out of our way but every time we do the food is amazing! The taste and quality is always the same. read more

Food is consistently delicious. We have eaten several different types of pho and all are so good. Tonight, i ordered the grilled beef and noodles, so delicious! The beef was thinly sliced, nicely seasoned and very tender. Loved the vegetables and noodles. Also we have had pot stickers, yummy and crispy. Eat here and enjoy good food. Service is very attentive too. read more

TEN STARS! This was so good. The portion side was so amazing and everything was fresh! I got the wonton and BBQ pork noodle soup to go and everything was packaged perfectly and remained steaming hot until I got home. The best remedy for a sore throat and so filling! I also ordered egg rolls and they were amazing! I cannot wait to order from Pho Cali again - hands down some of the best I've had in the area! **Gobbled it down so fast I didn't have a chance to take pictures! Next time!!! read more

Very interesting seeing that this place has great reviews. In total, we got shrimp spring rolls, the 32 and the 42. Spring rolls were pretty much bland, only saved by the peanut sauce (kinda watery) but I'm noticing this peanut sauce is congruent amongst other Pho places, probably store bought. My partners 42 consisted of some pretty large chunks of what looked like ear cartilage, I'm assuming brisket? My 32 had a really good broth but I was also plagued by this so called knuckle meat and it made me lose my appetite. Now to kick me while I'm down, this was at a high price tag of $53 for my tummy ache. I'd just ask my nephew to sock it to me if I really wanted what I ended up getting here. read more

Five stars: This has become my go to pho spot for a buddy and myself. The pho is good, and they have standard options with slring rolls and such. Quick and polite service, but the ambiance is nothing to write home about. Definitely one of the better pho spots in the Rocklin/Roseville area. read more

The quality of the food is A-class and easy to locate when you find a restaurant urgently around the area. My best favorite thing at the restaurant is the payment options. read more

I know my soups and Pho Cali has theeeee best bun bo hue!!! Try it and thank me later

Very good food, staff are always polite and attentive. Best pho in the Rocklin / Roseville area.

Super amazing bowl of pho. One size for all the bowls. Everyone enjoyed their bowl from the beef ball, to the chicken, to their special pho. Staff was super polite and very on it with keeping out drinks full. Open 7 days a week which is super nice. Very large inside for groups of people and open decently late. Definitely my go to pho spot when in Roseville. read more

Found this gem via Yelp and was not disappointed! The staff is always busy so be patient. We were immediately greeted as we walked in and seated to a clean dining table and area. I ordered spring rolls that were fresh and pho that was deeeeeeelish. Cooked just how I like it. Mouth watering. Keeping this review short and simple as Pho Cali is our go to since relocating to Rocklin. We will be back read more

I honestly had doubts I would find good Vietnamese food in the Roseville/Rocklin area, but I was pleasantly surprised by this place. The beef stew with bread is absolutely amazing! We got a side of egg noodles with this dish and felt very full. We also got the vermicelli dish with grilled pork, it's your typical vermicelli dish. The only issue I had was the size and price of the Vietnamese iced coffee which I have pictured (I haven't drank from it yet). I'm not sure if they only serve a specific amount and have to put it in these sized cups? Or if they are just being cheap. Anyways it's not worth the 6 dollars. read more

We have been going there for a few years now. The service is always excellent. The waiters are friendly and attentive and polite. The food is very good! The noodle soups are delicious.
