    My go to place for chicken pho and chicken rice. I usually get boneless chicken with dark meat.

    #9 Pho Ga (L) $13.99
    Erik G.

    What We Ordered: -#9 Pho Ga (L) $13.99 -#12 Pho Nam (L) $13.99 My wife wanted pho, so we decided to try Pho Ga District since it was close by and my friend Cindy S. gave it a good review. Parking was a bit tough in the strip mall, but we found a spot on the side street. The restaurant was busy for a weekday lunch, but we were seated right away. I ordered the Pho Ga, but I wasn't impressed with the bone-in chicken; it was soft and rubbery, almost undercooked. The staff was friendly and helpful though. My wife ordered the #12 Pho Nam, and she loved the tender and flavorful beef. While we didn't enjoy the Pho Ga, we would definitely return for the Pho Nam. I'm still on the hunt for the best pho in the SGV! Hit me up with recommendations!

    Was craving some pho, so ate here with my wife recently. I prefer beef pho so I didn't get the Pho Ga (but my wife did). Overall, the Pho was great, and so was the service. Great Broth. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is no thrills, but totally fine for a pho place in the SGV.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Note: Smaller parking lot in a shared plaza. We had to park a little outside the plaza

    Steamed Rice Rolls
    Boris M.

    We came to Pho Ga District on a Friday evening and found parking easily in the plaza. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant wasn't too busy, and the staff was friendly and welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We tried the Gai Du Du Cho Bo (green papaya & beef salad) and the Banh Cuon (steamed rice rolls with shrimp). The salad had a slightly sweet dressing but overall a nice balance of flavors. The rice rolls were a bit watery and fell apart easily, but still enjoyable. A great spot to explore some lesser-known Vietnamese dishes -- worth checking out if you're looking for something different.

    This place has the most pure, clean, clear chicken broth soup base I know of in a noodle restaurant, simple but flavorful. Clear broth, chicken on the bone (or boneless breast cuts, your choice) and rice noodles. No frills homestyle flavor. They have a small menu centered mostly around their chicken, you can order it whole or half with noodles on the side, or a standard bowl of chicken pho ga. Hainan style chicken rice and some Vietnamese mainstays such as egg rolls, beef pho, and bun cuon round out their menu. The staff is attentive and always refilling drinks, adding condiments, and cleaning. They don't do dinner service so check their hours before going and parking is tight as it is a small shared lot with other businesses but worth the visit.

    One of the best chicken pho in the SGV! The broth was very rich, almost tasted like drinking a clean rotisserie chicken. It was hearty without making you feel too heavy. They were very generous with bean sports... that were boiled! Can always appreciate when the bean sprouts are cooked. It's a casual mom and pop shop with quick service for a nice and affordable lunch. Came for lunch on Saturday at 11:30 and got seated right away. By 12pm, the restaurant was packed and there was a waitlist starting.

    Hainan chicken
    Nina W.

    Five stars for the chicken! It's a really small place, very friendly service and food was quick to come out. I got the chicken broth soup and my dad got the Hainan chicken rice. Both were delicious, highly recommend it. Please note the Hainan chicken is cold tho. Prices are average but parking is horrible. You can try to park on the street if the lot is full but it is a dead end narrow street. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not the best place for a meet up with friends due to limited space but amazing for a quick and comforting bite.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Bahn cuon
    Eileen F.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]A little hole in the wall place that gets quite busy on the weekends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I came for the bahn cuon surprisingly, and it did not disappoint! My husband ordered a hai nan chicken that came with a delicious chicken broth, and I see why their main star here is the chicken. The chicken was juicy, tender, and that side broth had so much natural chicken flavor it was insane! I will definitely return to try their namesake dish.

    Pho Ga
    Jonathan L.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Came here right at 10am when they opened on a Wednesday, and I was surprised that there was a good bit of people in here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's not a large restaurant at all, and as people have mentioned parking is very limited.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the Pho Ga as well as the Banh Cuon, The Pho came out very quickly and it wasn't the biggest bowl I thought it was fair. I normally don't eat pho ga but beef pho or pho tai (which they also have). However, instantly very impressed as it was super clean broth with a great chicken flavor. They allow you to get boneless or bone in chicken I opted for boneless. Banh cuon was pretty good. My mom gave it a 8.5/10. Overall, great experience the servers were really nice could speak English and Cantonese.

    Pho ga boneless with fresh (wider) noodles, really fantastic broth!
    Jonathan W.

    This is certainly the best pho ga option in the SGV: very friendly staff (that can speak Cantonese and Mandarin in addition to English and Vietnamese), the broth is very comforting, and the sauces to dip the chicken are the perfect accompaniment. I only wish there was a congee option on the menu!

    I've passed by this restaurant a few times before but never dined here until last night. Service: We were seated right away and given some cups of water. I also noticed the waiters all stand by the cashier area so it's very easy to get their attention. Food: We ordered a half chicken, a large plain noodle soup, a banh cuon, and egg rolls. The chicken and noodle soup came out so fast. I like how they have sauces on the table so you can help yourself. I was not a fan of how they chopped the chicken because some pieces of bones were so tiny that I almost accidentally swallowed. The noodle soup was so good though. I can see myself finishing a whole bowl in the winter. I wasn't a fan of the banh cuon but my fiancé really liked it. The egg rolls were so hot and crispy. It actually came out last so we were busy eating everything else before we started eating them but they were still very very hot. Parking: They share a small parking lot with the other stores in the strip mall. A lot of the parking spaces are reserved for other stores. Also the parking spots are tight. Overall a very decent pho ga restaurant. I will definitely be back.

    Boneless chicken pho
    Randy S.

    Decent chicken pho. My family loves their steamed whole chicken that we like to get to-go. The steamed chicken's meat is a tougher texture and it reminds my family of the chicken back in Cambodia because the chickens here in America are more plump but have a softer texture.

    Large pho ga, boneless chicken, medium wide rice noodles
    Vivian L.

    Best pho ga near me so far. Service is quick and friendly. Pho ga was perfectly done. I really enjoy the medium wide rice noodles. It's soft and slurpy. I like their sauces on the side to dip my chicken or to spruce up my broth. My favorite was ginger with the spicy soy. Simple and comforting of a meal. Pho ga is not as heavy as beef pho, but in a good way~ much lighter and clean tasting Lastly, my Thai tea was just filled with ice to the brim (like some places...) and not too sweet. It was perfect :) A pretty busy lunch spot, but tables move quickly. Support this small shop if you're a fan of chicken pho!

Main concern was the hairs we found in our food. When scooping out sauce, there was a hair that was in the chili oil jar. It was quite long and wavy and was mixed into the chili flakes. When we picked up the spoon, we saw it and pulled the hair out from between the clump.. I didn't take a picture at first excusing that it happens since it's a public condiment. However, I did take a picture of the second hair. I ordered the signature Pho and after a few bites, as I pulled up more noodles, I saw this quite long and kind of gross hair entangled in my noodles. Hopefully it's not from where I think it came from but as a guy, the shape and texture of this hair doenst look like it comes off your head. This being in the soup that comes from the kitchen and is most likely shared by anyone who orders pho is a bit off putting. We did not complain since it was closing time already by the time we got our food and I didn't want to hold them up any longer. It also is not my hair because the hair on my head doesn't look like this. I'd eat here again in hopes that hair in our food doesn't happen after this.

The broth is perfectly seasoned and really ties the whole bowl together. I always ask to skip the blood cubes and opt for extra pig's feet instead, which they handle perfectly. The ratio of tender meat to fresh vegetables balances the noodles beautifully, and the satay is an absolute must-add to hit that savory umami flavor profile. All in all, I have no complaints. It's an incredibly satisfying meal, especially after a long night out with friends.

    Pretty Trang tasty. Get it?!…read more Today, I stopped by for a Bon Rieu, Nem Cuom, and a House Special iced tea. Service: Service was short and the entire wait took 5 minutes. That's right, 5 minutes. Although I did go around 9:50AM so there wasn't a line nor another party in the dining area. Food: I woke up craving Vietnamese and this place didn't disappoint. The Bon Rieu had the depth of flavor that I crave. Honestly, I judge most Vietnamese pho restaurants by their Bon Rieu because some places simply use seafood powder in their stock to fake it. What results is a very thinly flavored broth that has very little umami. Bon Rieu should have THE MOST umami of any soup dish because of its tomato and crab base. That's how you can tell if a place is cutting corners. The Nem Cuom is huge and the dipping sauce is generous. The House Special Tea is reminiscent of a passion fruit green tea from a boba place. Sweetened just enough to not be saccharine. Ambiance: Quite small. I believe one of their main issues may be parking during peak hours as it shares a tiny parking lot with many other businesses. HOWEVER, neighborhood parking is plentiful and just around the corner past the Sheridan Hotel and Starbucks. Round the corner and you'll find plenty of parking throughout the day.
