The food is exceptional and the service. My wife and I always go off hours like after 1 or 2 in the afternoon and never a problem for a table. Oxtail is the reason we come. It may seem pricey for PHO but the quality and size of the large portions are worth it!! read more

My husband and I spontaneously stopped in to cure our Pho cravings two weeks ago and immediately fell in love. Since then, we've gone back again. We love Pho and are very picky but Pho Hot exceeded our expectations. The broth is rich and flavorful, the meat portions are exceptional compared to other pho joints, and most importantly, this place is well-kept and clean. They wipe their tables with two different cloths, one to clean it with solution, then one to dry it off. When the food is served, they lay down paper on the table. The cleanliness at Pho Hot is quite an upgrade compared to other places where the tables are wiped with dirty wet rags and crumbs/bits of food left behind. On top of all of that, they seat you right away, take your order promptly and bring out the food quickly. Don't think twice, just stop in and you'll be hooked. We will forever be repeat customers and we can't wait to introduce this place to friends and family. read more

BEST pho spot we've ever had hands down. The broth is so flavorful. Kind and efficient service. Prices are really reasonable. Homey environment - we found a new favorite! read more

I barely write bad reviews--it honestly hurts me to do so unless I'm really disappointed. I won't recommend this place--sorry. The food was way too dry. I couldn't even finish my meal. I let the owner know, but unfortunately, they still charged us for something I barely touched. All they did was switch the spring roll filling from marinated chicken to plain boiled chicken. Before bringing the new roll, the owner gave me a piece of the chicken to try--but how could I really judge without tasting it inside the actual roll? When it finally came, it was still super dry, had a weird smell, and the taste was just as disappointing. I honestly wish their customer service was more understanding. My husband's dish--some meat with red rice--was okay at best, but the portion was too small for the price. The owner told me this is how it's supposed to be, but I've had the exact same dish at another location, Indochine Vien, where it's made so much better. We only came to this location because it's closer to home and I was really hungry. Funny enough, when I'm hungry, I usually eat whatever--even something basic. But even then, I just couldn't. Despite the owner's effort to have me try the chicken beforehand, it just wasn't right. I ended up leaving hungry--and going all the way to Indochine Vien just to finally eat. I only mentioned that place so he could maybe try it and see that the same dish can be made without being dry or strange-tasting. Making things fresh takes time but it always feels different for your customers! The food wasn't fresh chicken seemed like it was cooked from one or two days ago ! To the owner: I know you're a hardworking and nice man, and I do wish you the best. I hope this feedback helps your business improve. Good luck. I have two starts because I hate to white my disappointment but I honestly don't want anyone to feel this experience. read more

Pho Hot - Brisket pho and spring rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - Glendale, California

It was literally a dark and stormy night. The bomb cyclone was upon us and we managed to venture out for some hot and steamy pho. Located at a small strip semi mall, parking was east but when this little strip gets busy get ready to search for parking on the street. We were seated immediately and order was take ( paper and digital menus available). Shared a large bowl of steak and brisket pho and an order of shrimp fresh spring rolls. Pho was good with just enough meet and pho noodles for 2. If you have a large appetite then this might be good for 1 lol. Spring rolls were on the smaller side in comparison to other places but tasting really FRESH like if it were made when ordered. Service is quick and they juggled to go orders and in restaurant orders easily. Highly recommend! read more

The food is fresh and delicious! Full of flavors that are layered and on point. Love the Banh Mi with grilled pork and Fried egg rolls. Note the Pho broth is a beef broth even for the chicken pho. Super friendly staff that go above and beyond. Be sure to check their hours before you go. You can eat there or order to go. Very clean & attention to detail. read more

The pho has a good broth, very flavorful. This gets into the pho (rice noodles) and makes the pho very tasty. There is a good amount of tendon, tripe, steak. I'd highly recommend other pho lovers to try this establishment when you're in the area. read more

Nothing fancy. Just tasty pho! After a long afternoon spent at Ikea shopping and getting ideas for new furniture, my family was worn out and just looking for a place that would have hot soup on the menu since the weather was rainy and chilly. The cafeteria at Ikea was convenient but we decided to pass. Who can argue that when you're tired and cold, nothing beats a bowl of hot soup or even better yet, a bowl of piping hot pho! All of us ordered the pho with sliced steak and to my very pleasant surprise, not only is the broth here delicious, but they really put a lot of sliced flank steak in the pho! I've just been used to these pho places that skimp on the sliced beef with the beef pho and figured it's just the way it is. So, I would try to ration out how much noodle I'd scoop up before tucking some steak with each bite. I was doing this here and then as I'm running out of noodles, I stir the broth with my chopsticks and see that I still have a lot of beef left. A surplus?! Oh what a lovely evening! Highly recommended and the next time I'm at Ikea, I'm going to stop by for a meal here! read more

came here after my inspections at my newest escrow and it did not disappoint. Got here RIGHT at 12:14pm....the place was packed with a line out the door by 12:30. I got the spring rolls and vermicelli noodles with grilled chicken and egg rolls and of course an iced Vietnamese coffee. The food was SO GOOD! I wish I had ordered more dishes! The Vietnamese coffee was to perfection. Service was great and fast...and the prices were VERY reasonable. I will be coming back here for sure. Real authentic Vietnamese food. Cures everything. Sad? Get Vietnamese food? Mad? Eat Vietnamese food. Going out on a date? Take them out for Vietnamese food (if they don't like it. Don't date them ). Vietnamese food=happiness read more

Pho Hot is my go to "local-ish" hassle free pho spot. It has a free parking lot in the front, little to no wait (don't get me wrong, it's busy! They just have have quick turnover and lots of to-go orders), and decent pricing. Their broth is very clean tasting and they have plenty of meat in the pho. I usually only get their pho, but I have had their spring rolls and their egg rolls and both are good. Owners and workers are very nice. As of this review, they still had partitions up between tables for Covid precautions. Pay up front after you eat. read more

Pho Hot - Phhhhooooo (large) - Vietnamese Near Me - Glendale, California

The people that run this place are incredibly welcoming and sweet. Long story short: their credit card machine went down on the only day of the year I did not carry CASH; owner said I could come back and pay at another time! No way, I went to the nearest ATM and returned. They were very apologetic; kind people! The point of my little story is: Bring Cash! Their card machine is kinda screwy. On to the food, this place is more of a Westernized Vietnamese place but I thought it was good. Not comparable to Little Saigon area or SGV, but if your in Glendale craving: Pho, Spring rolls, Rice Plates, Noodle salads, Sandwiches- give this place a try. Other Yelpers noted that Pho Hot is the best Vietnamese in Glendale area. Great meat quality in the Pho noodle soup. Their broth could use more aromatics; otherwise, good and mild tasting. The herbs and veggies that comes with the pho soup are clean, fresh and properly dried - not wet (a pet peeve) Overall the food offerings are clean tasting and healthy. Relaxing atmosphere with wonderful AC! During Summer weekends are closed!! Check hours. read more

This is a nice little pho spot. I ordered the House special pho. With a lot of sides to add. A bit sweet. Maybe thats the usual? I've never really ate pho so I don't have anything to compare. But it was delicious! We actually took awhile to order but the staff was super nice and gave us time. Good local spot to support! read more

I took my family here and we all enjoyed the food. I got the beef stew pho, which was delicious. My family all got the brisket pho. Even though they enjoyed theirs, they all wanted mine. I will definitely go back. read more

Joe is awesome. He was so impressed when he saw my little one eating her dinner with chopsticks. She is seven years old and she loves the challenge. She was able to easily feed herself her entrée. When her hand got tired, she switched it up and used a spoon. The employees were so impressed by her meal choice. She loved showing them how she was able to use her chopsticks. She even impressed her father. This was a very first visit here. They made an extremely pair of nervous customers feel right at home. There were so many things that we wanted to order. I ended up getting the number 10 regular which is the thinly sliced brisket in beef noodle soup. The meat was plentiful. So much so that I ran out of noodles before I ran out of meat. Most times it is the other way around. The broth I cannot say it was as hard as some that I've had but it definitely was very good. They are fried egg rolls are perfectly crispy, not overdone, but I felt like they fish sauce dipping sauce could have used a little bit more punch. I'm not sure if a dollop of sweet chili sauce in it would've helped or what. But still, they were very good. Summer sausage spring rolls were yummy. There wasn't very much noodle in them. That I could appreciate. It was wrapped in the rice paper wrapper with lots of lettuce, and the summer sausage. I believe there were some Julianne carrot in there. No matter. It was tasty. And it was a great appetizer to start off our meal. The dipping sauce was fabulous. In fact, it was so good we had to ask for more. There are a number of other dishes that I would like to try here in the future. And speaking of the future, they let us know that we could always come in and order a bowl of fa, but ask them to customize it for us. They could add different cuts of meat. They could add Combinations of meat that I were not listed on the menu. They told us that pretty much any combination of things as possible and that we just had to ask. That was encouraging. Did I mention the service? Their service is actually pretty awesome. Just a turn around to look behind me and someone rushed up to ask if I needed anything. That is really not common in an Asian restaurant. So, that was another thing that made me feel good about my choosing to eat here. The restroom was very clean and very well kept. I did not hesitate to take my daughter to the restroom, and to wash her hands after our meal. She even commented on how nice it smelled. I can really appreciate a place like this, that not only takes care of their customers very well, but their restrooms and other facilities as well. They are open until 8 o'clock although they accept orders until 10 o'clock if I am not mistaken. I also believe that I read that they are closed on Sundays. In order to be able to use a credit card or debit card for purchase, you must spend a minimum of $10. All of these things I read on the little partitions in between their tables. I know it doesn't look the best to have tables set up like that but I really can't appreciate those partitions as flu season is definitely in full swing and a lot of children are out sniffling, sneezing, coughing wheezing, and just not being more careful. Back to Joe, he is super friendly. We were talking about other pho restaurants, and how a lot of them seem to have closed and just cannot make it through the pandemic. He was so glad to hear that my family and I wanted to come back here to try more items. It was a really nice night tonight. And beef noodle soup was a great idea too! Oops, we forgot to take any pictures. Our food went from the kitchen to our table and then into our bellies. Our phones and cameras did not eat first this time. read more

Pho Hot - Located in a shopping center with plenty of parking. - Vietnamese Near Me - Glendale, California

TL;DR: come alone, come with a friend, take it to go but I prefer to dine in- no bad choices here! I got beef steak pho, and I've ordered here many times before as take out but I finally decided to dine in. And honestly it was even better. Staff is quick and friendly, and food served not long after and very hot! Perfect for cold weather. The broth is delicious. Get a bahn mi sandwich and spring rolls on warmer days :) Prices are reasonable for the portion and location. read more

Extremely quick and fast service. I arrived, was seated, and ordered in less than two minutes flat. The location is well staffed and everyone is hurrying about to get the orders in and out. The pho noodles were good. Not too soft and had good texture to it. The soup was, I want to say, a beef broth. It lacked something in it that prevents me from giving this a five star review. I'm not sure what exactly it was, but the flavor was a bit lacking. The pho came with 4 pieces of shrimp, the pieces of initiation cream meat, squid rings, and onion. They ingredients were good and fresh. Would come back to try out something else next time. read more

Pho Hot - Seafood Pho - Regular Size - Vietnamese Near Me - Glendale, California

We were in the mood for a lunchtime bahn mi and had already been to most of the Vietnamese places near us in Studio City, NoHo, Burbank, etc. So we Yelped and decided to check out this authentic looking place in a strip mall next to a gun shop and barber. The place was pretty busy when we arrived at 1pm on a Friday, but they sat us quickly. As we walked to our seats I saw almost everyone had bowls of pho and not bahn mi's or rice plates. Uh-oh. We decided to still order the bahn mi. Luckily we did because it was a new bahn mi experience for us. We're devoted Lees Sandwiches fans and we've tried many other banh mi's from Arizona to Vegas to SF. The difference in Pho Hot's bahn mi was the toasted French roll. It was warm and fresh. The pork was just cooked and hibernated nicely in bun with the sauce, carrots, cucumbers and jalapenos. It was a comforting sandwich. It wasn't the best bahn mi we've ever had though. The pork could have been more flavorful and the carrots and cucumbers could have been pickled longer. Nevertheless, it was worth driving an additional 10 minutes for us to try something different. Plus, the staff were friendly and family-like. We'll be back on a rainy day to try the pho! read more

Just found this place today and I'm so happy I did. I live just 3 minutes away and wanted a good Pho and the House special was so flavorful and delicious. Fresh herbs as well for garnish and flavor!

Pho Hot always does a good job satisfying my craving for pho. The house special pho has a good amount of meat and tendon. Their broth is so good that I don't have to add any sauces so I can enjoy it in its purest form. Their egg rolls are served crispy & hot - perfect for sharing. All the staff have always been very hospitable every time I dine at Pho Hot. The one change since Covid is that they have portable clear dividers between the tables to allow for social distancing, which is great. Parking is available in shared lot with other businesses. read more

Pho Hot was great! I have never had pho anywhere else besides Mama Hongs in Burbank so this is a new experience for me. Pho Hot is inside a plaza with maybe six other stores. The parking lot is a little small, but there is ample amount of parking... if you get there before 12. Once it hits 12 o'clock people just started flooding into the restaurant. There's plexiglass between the tables to offer comfort & space I suppose. The waiter was prompt, friendly, accommodating, they listen to you. The food came out quickly & it was very fresh. I feel like we got what we paid for. They weren't rushing us out of there or trying to get us to order more. I would definitely come here again & I think next time I'll bring my mom. read more

Ordered bún thịt nướng chả giò with beef over the phone for to-go. The order was ready in about 15 minutes, which was great since I had to pick it up quickly during my lunch break. The restaurant's located in a plaza with adjacent parking. I went on a weekday afternoon, and it wasn't too busy and I was able to get a spot easily. I enjoyed my order! When I opened the takeout container, it smelled real good. The beef was tender, and I appreciated their generosity with the greens and for providing fish sauce and utensils in the bag. The con for me was that the bún/noodles could've been a bit more soft, but that's just my preference. Also, the chả giò/egg rolls weren't as flavorful as I thought they'd be (so I should've tried dipping them in the sauces; a task for next time...). I'd love to return to Pho Hot to try their other dishes and actually dine-in. It's rare to find a legit Viet restaurant in the Burbank/Glendale area, so I'd definitely visit again! read more

The food is affordable, quick, and decent. First time coming here and a fight almost broke out at the seat next to me. All the workers seems pretty attentive as they moved the customers away from each other before anything happened. This location is small. Parking lot isn't the worst. Only reason why this got a 4 star instead of a 5 star. Server placed my food down on the table across and got side tracked. Never received my food until several minutes later. read more

Another gem here in Glendale for authentic Pho. We started off with an appetizer and then the Pho. Everything tasted really good, but I would say that if you are sensitive to specific cow parts, then you should ask for soup only and not the meat or put it on the side or ask what it includes. Trust me and ask, but only if you are picky, I'm good with everything, but some people can't handle it. Aside from this, everything tastes fresh and delicious. The staff is very friendly and the service is quick. Its more of a fast dining feel, and they have plenty of seating for the small space. read more

Went when they opened and the meat was old, noodles were soggy, I asked for tái (raw) got overcooked meat thrown in instead. They were closed over the weekend so was probably given meat from Friday. disgusting. Ordered sandwiches to go, received old meat and untoasted bread. NEVER AGAIN. Waiter was also unfriendly read more

I love you pho hot. When I'm sad, when I'm happy I go to you. I need a tote bag too but not for $50 spent I only get pho for myself baby

went to this place because it was convenient and the closest Vietnamese spot to us at the time. Unfortunately, the food is unremarkable. The broth did not have much flavor. The rice meal was just OK. The barbecue pork didn't have great flavor either. Overall wouldn't go out of my way to come back. read more

I love it here, so much so that the fact that they don't offer delivery for the days I'm too lazy to leave the house makes me sad. Lol. Truly the best vietnamese food in the area. Their banh mis are delicious, the pho is generous in portions and flavor, and the apps are also great. The prices are affordable and service is fast - the restaurant is always busy but the staff does a really good job of making wait times (if any) reasonable. Will have to try a vermicelli dish next time! read more

The guys who run this place are super friendly, made fresh and so quick. Felt like a few short minutes after our menus were picked up from the table the food had arrived. Traditional pho was great, the broth to the vegetarian pho had a tangy taste that wasn't my favorite but the perfectly cooked veggies and noodles compensated for it! read more
