Long overdue review cuz this place has been my go to Vietnamese spot for yearsss. I usually get it take out and love how quick it takes for my order to be ready. Their charbroiled pork spring rolls are my absolute fav. I've had some from other good rated spots and imo none have been as good. The pork here is flavorful and tender with minimal fat and the vegetable fillings are so fresh. I've also recently been getting the rice porridge with chicken pretty often. Kinda random cuz Ive never been a porridge person but my mom was randomly in the mood for porridge and got it and we were both wowed by how flavorful it was. Love how much chicken is in it and love when I get a piece of the caramelized onion topping. Another fav dish is the garlic filet mignon with the special rice. This rice is soo good, it has like a buttery taste to it and is esp yummy with the soy garlic sauce from the meat poured onto it. The filet is tender and flavorful. Tbh I haven't gotten their pho or vermicelli in a while just cuz I've been gravitating to either the porridge or filet but I also loved those as well. read more

This is my local go-to spot for pho and egg rolls. I'm sure there are "better" places in Westminster or Fountain Valley but for Irvine, Pho Ha Noi has always been a staple. I usually dine in and while there isn't much of an ambiance, there are lots of tables and a few comfy booths. Service is prompt and efficient. Expect a steaming hot bowl of pho just a few minutes after you're seated!! It's located in the Cypress Village plaza, next to Starbucks. Plenty of parking and even some EV charging stations. read more

Average banh mi. Eggrolls were better. Was craving Vietnamese, so ordered from here. Got the grilled pork banh mi, which had a good amount of pork, but otherwise flavors were mild. Was craving more pickled veggies. Also got the cha gio/eggrolls. The fish sauce was good, and all the veggies that came to wrap them were also fresh. Didn't eat in, so can't speak to service or ambiance, but tbd on whether I go back. read more

Great service today and nice clean restroom too. The pork chop with rice was must excellent and tasty freshness just off the grill made to order never frozen. The handmade spring rolls were delicious and the peanut sauce was very good. Overall a good find here in Irvine close to Albertsons supermarket and the Islamic center too. Happy New Year 2026!! Another beautiful day in paradise. read more

I came here with my family and ordered the vermicelli bowl. The food came out very quickly and although it was convenient, it made me question how fresh it was. Unfortunately, the flavor tasted a bit off. The vermicelli bowl consisted of mostly veggies so I thought this was a bit overpriced from what I'm used to. The customer service wasn't the greatest but wasn't too bad either. When we would ask for something, there wasn't a verbal response however they did get what we needed. I appreciated the help however it left me feeling their interaction was impersonal and they should've been a bit friendlier. I would say the place is very clean. I really would like to say I enjoyed the food but overall the experience fell a bit short. Hopefully, it was just an off day. read more

Sleepy people. Said they would cancel my Uber Eats order and didn't. Uber Eats ended charging me over $20 for it. Then when I asked if I could just pay the difference they said talk to uber directly. Makes sense this place had such bad review. Don't ever come to this greedy establishment read more

I often come here when I'm craving hot pho soup. Their broth is good enough to enjoy but I still prefer the pho locations at Westminster. Given that this one is located in Irvine and close to the freeway ramp in Kohls and Albertsons plaza it is good enough. Their spring rolls aren't good like Brodard but their fried egg rolls are delicious. Service is good and I can see it's a family owned place. Sometimes when I come here it is packed and you have to wait outside as there's minimal space to wait indoors. Dining area isn't as large as typical restaurants but it is quite clean. There's no Yelp waitlist so you have to out your name on a paper list and wait for their staff to call you. read more

The food here is about what you'd expect from a standard pho spot. The menu has a good variety of traditional Vietnamese dishes, though the flavors are pretty simple. I usually go with the pho ga, it's reliable and hits the spot, but the broth-to-noodle ratio can be a little inconsistent at times. The service is ok. I came in with my family and the server got our order wrong. It would have been fine if he had written it down in the first place AND if he didn't come back out after the another server dropped off our dishes to tell us that we were wrong. He asked why we would order something we didn't want when this obviously wasn't what happened. Instead of bringing out the correct bowl of pho (Tai instead of chicken), his solution was to offer a small bowl of the pho tai broth. I appreciate the effort in not wasting a whole bowl but this entire situation could have turned out and been handled differently. Overall, it's an option if you're craving a quick, no-frills bowl of pho. read more

Parking is easy and plentiful at this plaza!! The gentlemen at the front welcomed us in with a bright smile, and the service was very quick and friendly. Very attentive to needs. When we walked in, I noticed the freshness, vibrant colors of the walls, and cleanliness of the restaurant. They offer a wide selection of Vietnamese food with rice and noodle dishes. I really enjoyed the fried egg roll appetizer. It came with fish sauce and very fresh veggies! The egg rolls are distinctive here and an absolute must try. It's white and wrapped/fried in rice paper instead of the traditional golden brown egg roll you normally see at other places. It's a MUST order! The pho broth is very, very flavorful. I didn't use sriracha or hoisin sauce. I actually finished most of the soup when I normally leave the broth.. if I like to sip on the broth alone, that really means something. Yeah, it's really good. Tastes different than other pho places. My order came with a lot of meat and tendon in the broth too. The meat is soft and tender, also juicy. Not dried or skimpy like other pho restaurants. I will definitely come back soon since it's right next to my best friend's place in Irvine. Especially since the weather out is cold now, we will definitely enjoy pho here all winter.. Portion and bowl sizes are huge, so I'm glad! I was very full after dinner. Slept like a baby after getting home. Such a comfort meal. Also got take-out on another day. The bo luc lac. Really good and tender meat read more

I've been coming here with my family for many years now and this time brought one of my friends to try it out! This place isn't terribly fancy but it's always been a reliable spot in terms of food and price. Pho with rare steak, brisket, beef tendon (4.5/5) - The broth was great and really hit the spot after a long day out. - Choice of meats provided good variety - Classic toppings with jalapenos, bean sprouts, basil, lime - In terms of portions, you can choose between a small/regular or large size - I almost always get the small/regular and it's very filling. Service was quick and the food was satisfying! You pay at the counter after you're finished with your meal, so overall just a pretty straightforward, no frills experience. read more

I come here for every lunch I can. I have been to at least 8 other pho places near by, I can confidently say it's so far the best I have had. The staff is always so kind and the food is great. Let's not even get me started on the broth! so delicious. Give this place a try, you won't regret it! read more

I've been coming here since I was a kid, and the food has always been consistent and delicious. I usually order the pho tai (with rare steak) or pho tai gan (with rare steak and tendon). I will say in my recent visits I noticed that they don't really give a lot of noodles compared to other pho places, but I personally can't eat too much in one sitting so that works out just fine for me personally (I don't like wasting food!) Overall a nice place to get a quick bite of pho and also have a fun look at their paper placements with the zodiac animals. read more

I was staying with my son, and he picked up dinner for us from Pho Ha Noi. He picks up food from this restaurant frequently. I had never had Vietnamese food before. He ordered Goi Bo for me, which is a spicy beef salad. The beef was tender and flavorful. He also ordered a side of rice and broth. I liked the rice, but I didn't care for the broth at all. The food was good, but I don't think I'd go back when there are so many other restaurants nearby. read more

Pho Ha Noi - 14. Pho Tai - Vietnamese Near Me - Irvine, California

A very conveniently located pho spot that's good for a quick and satisfying meal. They're located inside of the Cypress Village shopping center and there's a good amount of parking available. They have both inside and outside tables, but they typically seat people inside unless it's very crowded. The service is quick and straight to the point. We were able to get our food within a few minutes of ordering. The quality of their meats is good and their vegetables are always fresh. They have good portion sizes even for the size small bowls and it's decently priced for the amount of food that they give. read more

Ordered the Lemon grass chilli chicken vermicelli and it was so much spicier than what we expected. There was no spice label indicated on the menu so we had no idea. After telling the workers if we could somehow switch it or have it remade less spicy, they rudely told us they can't and that we just have to eat it as is. We even brought out the menu to show them there was no spice indicator but they were insistent and said we should have known. Would not be coming back purely just by how we were treated. read more

Ordered the bbq pork, shrimp, eggroll with noodles bowl. Took one bite of the shrimp and noticed how mushy it was. Spit out the half cooked shrimp and hopefully my stomach can will handle that cuz I've got a long day ahead. Told myself that people eat raw shrimps and that should be fine. My elderly mom goes to pay (i insisted but she's stubborn). Mom tried to use their credit card POS reader up front and the server tried to help her. That server lady tried to tip herself 30%! You know who you are! Shameless, cuz service wasn't that good and food was just ok with the undercooked shrimps!! You just lost a great customer. read more

I had a vegetable pho for lunch today; unfortunately, it was tasteless...the soup was lukewarm and bland.

I used to eat here all the times when I used to live in the area, but have not visited them since I moved away years ago. Stopped by tonight for a quick bite when I was in the area. Had the vermicelli with grilled beef and shrimp. It was as delicious as I remembered it. They definitely didn't skimp on the grilled meat. Loved it that they also gave plenty of veggies. Service was good and attentive. The male sever was pleasant and quick to take order. I didn't have to wait long for food to be brought out. I also spoke with Julie, the cashier, for a bit and she was super nice and helpful. So glad I didn't read the reviews until now, at 11:00 pm, when I'm home. I may not have eaten there if I read the reviews beforehand. :) Not sure why so many bad reviews? Food was good and tasty, and plentiful. Service was also great. My only suggestion for the kitchen is to add more lemongrass to the beef and their meat before grilling for more bursting flavor. Definitely will eat there again when I'm in the area. I may bring my family here soon. read more

The service is slow, unfriendly, and inattentive. I had to work hard to get the waitress' attention to place a dine-in order for three people when the restaurant was empty except for one other table. The menu selection offers a good variety and the food quality is okay. I wouldn't go back. read more

I had caught a cold and wasn't feeling well at all. We decided to get pho here since we were in the area. When we first got here we were the only customers in the restaurant. They sat us at a booth in the back. I did not like the cushiony seats. I sat on it and sunk way down. It wasn't comfortable at all. I pulled up a chair and sat at the end of the table instead, which was much better. I ordered the rare steak pho and it was ok. The broth was nicely flavored, but it was skimpy on the rare steak. It's pretty hard to mess up pho though as long as you get the broth right. I believe you get a percentage off if you pay with cash, so bring money. read more

Food is fine, I give it one start. I agree this is one of the good locations if you want to have pho in Irvine without waiting for a long line. However, one of the service staff (an older lady)made me feel very uncomfortable!! She was giving me an attitude when I asked if we could sit at a table without facing the sun. When I asked for a to go box, she just looked at me and said " ok", and never gave me the box. Very rude! It ended up another service staff (a younger gentleman, I feel bad I don't remember his name now)helps me with everything. So one star for him! I am a very easing going person, I don't like to leave any negative comments, But this place I will never come back again! read more

After our plans fell through next door we came here to have dinner. Hands down one of the best Thai ice teas I have ever had! I have never had rolls covered in a giant lettuce leaf. They were criapy and very flavorful! We also got the crispy noodles(#52 on the menu) with another plate of cut beef I can't recall the name but it was also good. The food came out quick and all at once. This restaurant really came in last minute in a great way to make us dinner. If you're in this plaza give this restaurant a look! No waiting and great food. read more

My husband and I came in to eat on 11/17 and both got food poisoning very bad. My husband has been throwing up multiple times and is having diarrhea. I feel very bad with hand and leg numbness. I also feel bloated and have stomachache. We called the restaurant and asked for a manager or an owner to discuss the issue but no one was there. The worker basically neglected to address the issue. We let her know we are not trying to have our money back but to warn them about the food quality to stop getting other customers sick. read more

This is my favorite pho spot. I've been coming here for years, and the food has been consistently good. I usually get a regular pho and beef spring rolls, and it's my go-to comfort food.

I love coming here especially when it's rainy outside :) read more

I ordered through their site which lead me to the yelp site. Got the confirmation from yelp which is powered by Grubhub. Guy at shop found my name amongst pick-up orders on table then held my food behind his back. He would not give me the food although it was paid for and attached to the yelp email with all my info because I did not have the Grubhub app. read more

Ehhhhhh. My girlfriend was craving pho and spring rolls so I decided why not give this place a shot since it is so close to us. I've gone here prior and only had some spring rolls (which I didn't like) but thought the place deserved another chance. We came here on Saturday evening to find an almost empty restaurant, which I'm assuming most people were going to Mokkoji Shabu Shabu next door. We got seated immediately. Once our server returned my girlfriend order #24 Pho Tai Nam Sach (Large), Goi Cuon (spring rolls), and I ordered the Com Bo Luc Lac. We also got a pot of hot tea. Our food came out very fast and I couldn't complain since we were hungry. My girlfriend said for her pho the broth tasted good, but she's had better. The spring rolls were OK. The hot tea was good. My food: - Com Bo Luc Lac: The meat was tender and tasty, as well as the onions. I wasn't a fan of the orange rice that came with it, which had the scent of coconut but tasted nothing like it. I would have preferred regular white rice. The salad that accompanied it was very dry, with a spritz of whatever dressing they put on it. Normally this dish at other restaurants would come with a soup on the side and a bowl of salt/pepper with a lemon, but this one didn't. Service was a little dry. No one came to check on us and the server just stared at us at times. Parking is plentiful, there are even charging spots super close. A motorcycle parking area is right by there as well, barricaded for safety. Good food is worth traveling far for, and I recommend making the trek to Westminster for better pho. read more

Excellent pho for the price and there is more meat and veggie. I'm a Sup pho customer and this is much better to me.

Their NEW PHONE NUMBER is 949-401-0634. They are still in open for business. They're my go to place for quick bowl of pho if I don't want to go out of Irvine. read more
