    House Special Vermicelli Noodles
    Debora K.

    My family & I eat pho pretty frequently & this place is a forever staple in our household whenever we're craving pho. They never miss. There are a lot of delicious pho spots in the area, but what makes them special is the owners & their dedication to providing warm & stellar service, maintaining cleanliness, & most importantly cooking delicious food. We usually get the rib eye, round eye, or filet mignon pho, house special vermicelli, & egg/spring rolls. We have a vegan in the family who also really enjoys the veggie pho. Their chicken pho was also very new & yummy, but I can't stop myself from getting beef. Their house made chili oil is a must to add in your broth or dip your protein in. Smallest size is large, so be ready to eat! There's plenty of hot broth to enjoy your meal too. The rolls are crunchy & fresh every time. Their drinks are also really good: pineapple smoothie is my favorite for dessert vibes (perfect balance of creamy & sweet) & iced peach or passion fruit tea for refreshing vibes. Parking is very abundant. Service has always been consistent & friendly even when they're busy. You'll understand why you'd want to keep supporting them when you see how they interact with their regulars. Very sweet & genuine people. Only one bathroom, but always clean. Please go & give it a try

    Added Review for 2026. One of my favorite lunch spots close to work. This place never ceases to amaze me. Open seating location, arrival time 11:45am. Ordered some spring rolls and combination pho bowl. 10 minutes later we received our food. All was so very good. Not dissapointed at all. If you are in Lawndale, this spot will not dissapoint you. Customer service is very friendly! Kudos for giving good energy. Like a MOM and POP shop. I highly recommend. Plenty of parking.

    Located in strip mall

    It was our first time at Pho House when we stopped in for dinner. They're located in a strip mall which shares parking with Saigon Market. The restaurant wasn't very busy when we entered on Friday night, which was surprising. When we drove by another Vietnamese restaurant less than a block away, there was a line out the door. I ordered the House Special vermicelli bowl. It had a variety of toppings which I enjoyed. My husband ordered the char broiled pork plate with rice. The pork didn't seem char broiled and was more pan fried without any char. Same with the pork on my bowl. The server was nice. There's a lot of competition with newer Vietnamese restaurants in the South Bay. Glad we got to try this one.

    I ordered take out via Doordash. Their price from Doordash is the same as in store so this is the best. It was super convenient to pick up. When I came, the food was ready, and packaged. The packaging is normal, and tight. They double bagged the soup in case of spills. They used a tall, thin cup that perfectly snuggles in my car cup holder, preventing it from tipping over during my driving. The soup was hot and flavorful. There were 3 pcs of short ribs. One of the pcs didn't have enough meat so I would say this is equivalent to 2 pcs in other restaurants whose short ribs are bigger. The staff was nice and friendly when I came to pick up. Overall, the $14.99, I like the price very much. My take out comes with utentils, hoisin, and srirachi. The parking here is huge and ample. Overall I would come back for pho.

    Food 8.9/10: pho was delicious and the pork was good. They gave me the wrong item for the egg noodle but that is okay because I got to try something new. Service: 10/10: very attentive and kind. Ambiance: nice and clean. Parking: somewhat busy for a 1:00 pm.

    There's nothing quite like a comforting bowl of pho and while there are lots of options in the South Bay, few of them stand out like Pho House. I like simple so I typically go with the beef (#2), and iced coffee. Service is always fast and friendly. The couple who are usually there running the place are super sweet. The restaurant itself is clean with indoor and outdoor seating. It's located in a small plaza with plenty of parking. Definitely give this place a try for good pho!

    I live in Venice, and have been searching for a great pho spot. Pho House is worth the drive, and we have made it multiple times. My friend always orders the pho combo, and I get the #10 vermicelli bowl. I could honestly eat here nearly every day. If you are in the area, or even if you aren't you should stop by. The staff is awesome, and I love their ice tea and you get free refills. Pho House rule!

    My husband and I came here for a casual dinner on a Friday night around 6 pm. Pho House is located in a strip mall in Lawndale, where they have several other Vietnamese businesses and some Peruvian eateries. We were seated immediately when we came in. There were a couple of other diners inside but the restaurant wasn't too busy. I ordered the pho dac biet and my husband had the house special vermicelli. Although they specialize in pho, they still have a good variety of different dishes on the menu including vermicelli and rice dishes. We both enjoyed our food and it was also incredibly cheap. Service was good. The ambiance here is very casual, so it would be a good spot for a quick meal. This place is not far from where we live so we plan to come back whenever we're craving Vietnamese.

    Omg stumbled upon this place and wow the food was so good. Literally the best pho broth I've had, so flavorful!

    Ordered the Special Vermicelli Noodles and Spring Rolls Shrimp & Pork for delivery. Both of them were delicious!

    We came here on New Year's Day. After being seated, we noticed that there weren't many people working but the place was busy so we were prepared to stay and wait, understanding that they have many orders to fulfill. The service was the best they could do at the time which I appreciate. The food however, was subpar. I read the reviews and brought my parents here since our first choice was closed and had decent expectations which were not met. The noodle dish we ordered came out soggy and mushy with half the noodles cold and half of it warm. It was comparable to badly microwaved leftovers. The pho was okay, with hard noodles and broth lacking flavor. The spring rolls were decent but I wish there was a little more flavor as well. Although reasonable for service to take long as it's a somewhat busy holiday, the food was very disappointing ):

    A little mom and pop-type Vietnamese spot tucked away in a small strip mall off of Hawthorne. I came early in the day for a late breakfast. The people were super friendly, smiling and so accommodating. I ordered the Bun Dac Biet (House Special Vermicelli Noodles) which included grilled shrimp, charbroiled pork, egg rolls, bean curd shrimp cake. The beauty about vietnamese food is that it's healthy, light and refreshing, and Pho House made it just right. The meats were all great, but the lettuce, cucumbers, pickled daikon and carrots all tasted so fresh. Major props on the attention to detail with the peanuts and fried shallots (some places would just skimp or neglect these altogether). I also ordered a hot vietnamese coffee with condensed milk. It wasn't the best coffee as there were a few milk curdles (?) after I mixed it, so had to fish those out before drinking it. Otherwise it was okay. All in all, a friendly little vietnamese restaurant with a solid menu of offerings and good food.

Service was fast and friendly from start to finish. They offer dine-in and takeout, and you can join the waitlist through Yelp.

We'll definitely be back.

    I've been coming to Saigon Dish for close to three decades. That sentence makes me feel…read moreapproximately 900 years old. I don't even remember when I started coming here. I just remember working nearby when I was younger and Saigon Dish becoming part of the routine. I came constantly. Sometimes practically every day. This was before the larger setup they have now, when the whole operation felt smaller and you got to know the person behind it pretty quickly. That person is John. And before we get into pho, John deserves his paragraph. He is one of those increasingly rare restaurant owners who makes you genuinely happy to hand him your money. In the early days, before I became the longtime regular who mostly gives him shit, I remember him talking me through ingredients. Why he chose something. What I should order. What was good that day. There was an intentionality behind the food that told you somebody was paying attention. And that's the thing I respect most about this place, he never let it go. The restaurant grew. Life moved on. I stopped working nearby. I got older. I brought coworkers. Then friends. My parents. My sisters. Eventually my wife and kids. And the pho is still good. I should establish that I'm obnoxious about pho. I've eaten a lot of it, from tiny places where nobody particularly cares whether you know they exist to polished restaurants charging you for the privilege of sitting underneath an Edison bulb. There are spectacular bowls all over California. So I'm not going to tell you Saigon Dish serves the single greatest pho ever created by mankind. It doesn't need that kind of BS. What it does incredibly well is balance. The broth is clean. That's the word I always come back to. Clean. Deep enough that you know something happened before it reached your bowl, but it doesn't club you over the head with star anise and herbs. And it isn't the sad, watery approximation of pho you sometimes encounter when you wander too far west and somebody has decided broth should taste like hot water that once met a cow. This tastes like pho. The filet mignon is consistently tender and smooth. The tripe is properly cleaned. The tendon is cooked beautifully, soft and gelatinous without disintegrating, which is where tendon should live. The meatballs are surprisingly good. The well done beef can occasionally lean a little dry for my taste, but that's what the bowl of broth and a little sriracha are for. I've also eaten my way through so much of the menu that reconstructing it would require archaeological work. Egg rolls? Get them. Rice dishes? Yep. Noodles? Yep. Vietnamese coffee? Obviously. Coconut drinks? Go for it. I've brought an absurd number of people here over the years and the remarkable thing is how universally the place works. Pho nerds can find something to obsess over, but you can also bring somebody who barely knows Vietnamese food and they'll be completely comfortable. And then there's the operation itself. This isn't some immaculate Beverly Hills dining room designed by a hospitality group. Thank God. It looks like a South Bay Vietnamese restaurant. Every available corner seems to have acquired a purpose. People are moving everywhere. Tables are turning. Someone needs extra onions. Someone wants another bowl. Someone's asking for sriracha. Somebody's kid needs chopsticks. Water appears before you realize you need it. And somehow it flows. That's harder than it looks. Service here has always felt unusually effortless to me. Not performative. Nobody is giving you a TED Talk about the provenance of the bean sprouts. They just take care of you. Parking occasionally becomes its own little hunger game. Don't panic. Circle around, wait a few minutes, somebody will finish their pho and leave. I've written a lot of reviews and I don't throw five stars around because then five stars stop meaning anything. But how exactly do you rate a restaurant you've voluntarily returned to for close to thirty years? At some point consistency becomes the review. I've watched Saigon Dish grow from the little place I remember into what it is today. I've sent coworkers here. Friends. My parents. My sisters. My own family. I've probably eaten enough of John's pho at this point that some measurable percentage of my body belongs to the restaurant. And I'm still coming back.

    Okay, I need to talk about Pho Ever Bistro for a second…read more The second you walk in, Sandy (the new owner) greets you like you've been coming here for years, even if it's your first time. She's just... warm. Genuinely warm, not in that scripted-server way. She checks in, remembers little things, actually recommends stuff she thinks you'll like instead of just pointing at the menu. It's the kind of energy that makes a random Tuesday dinner feel like something. And then there's the food, which honestly holds its own. The pho broth tastes like it's been simmering all day -- rich, deep, the kind of thing you can tell someone actually cared about. Noodles are perfectly cooked, herbs are fresh, portions are big enough that you're not leaving hungry. The banh mi is crunchy bread done right, none of that soggy sadness you get elsewhere. Spring rolls and egg rolls are crispy and clearly made fresh, not just tossed in a fryer and forgotten. Honestly it tastes like someone's grandma's recipe -- comforting, no gimmicks, just good. Here's the thing though -- this place works for basically everyone. If you're a broke college student who wants something warm and filling that won't destroy your wallet, this is it. And it's not just a grab-and-go spot either -- they've got board games, the vibe is relaxed, and it's genuinely a great place to camp out with your laptop and a drink to get some studying done, or just hang with friends for a while. Nobody's rushing you out. It's also a really solid first date spot, low-key enough that you're not stressed, with food you can share so you have something to talk about besides "so... tell me about yourself." And if you grew up eating Vietnamese home cooking, or just want that feeling, this scratches the itch in a way a lot of places don't. But really, what makes this place special isn't just the food -- it's that you can tell Sandy actually cares. In a world where eating out can feel so transactional, that kind of warmth stands out. You leave feeling like you mattered, not just like you were a transaction. If you're a student needing a spot to study or unwind, on a first date, or just craving something that feels like home, go check out Pho Ever Bistro. Sandy's turned this place into somewhere you actually want to come back to. Good for: studying/hanging out, first dates, comfort food cravings, board games, family dinners, or just being around someone who's genuinely happy to see you.

    Pho Ever is my husband's and my favorite pho place. The new changes have only made us love it more…read more While it's a little warm at the moment due to the crazy hot weather, I'd recommend eating in store for the experience and the ambience. The owner is so sweet and welcoming and the cafe revamp across the different rooms is fun and unique. Everything is incredibly flavorful and so evidently made with care. The pho broth has a really great balance of flavors and the ingredients in the spring rolls are so fresh, they are really beautiful and lovely to eat. The highlight for me was the salty plum drink. Reminds me of Japanese ume candy, Hawaiian li hing mui, and Mexican saladitos in drink form. Refreshing and addicting. If you are obsessed with the salt or tajin rim on a fruity margarita, consider trying it. (Next time, I'll have to get a salty plum to-go and turn it into a margarita at home. Already dreaming of it.) Really excited for the fried banana item listed on the "coming soon" portion of the menu. I love a fried banana, and the quality of Pho Ever's food promises good things.

    Rode out to Gardena/Torrance after work to meet up some friends and started off our evening with…read moresome pho! I hadn't eaten close to 24 hours so I was absolutely famished. I had just told them that I was very picky about pho, especially recently. A lot of my go-to spots have been disappointing lately so I was craving a good bowl of pho - one that really hits the spot and Oh My Pho did just that. The moment we pulled into the parking lot I was like, "I have a good feeling about this place." I walked in and was immediately greeted with a deep aromatic smell of pho in the air. All 3 of us ordered their Pho Combination which has it all: Sliced brisket, sliced eye round, tripe, tendon, meatballs. We also ordered their shaken beef rice platter to share. Before digging into my bowl, I took a long deep smell of the broth as if I was taking the fattest bong rip known to mankind. It only got better from there though because the broth tasted as good as it smelled. Incredibly flavorful. All the flavors were balanced -- salty, sweet, umami. The noodles were cooked almost perfect (I like my noodles very al dente), but the doneness was definitely the kind that would suit everyone's preference. The shaken beef was delicious too. The meat was very tender and they mixed fries in which isn't typical/common, but it was really good! The rice was made perfectly too, at least to my preference. Only (minor) complaints were my bowl not being hot enough which is funny because I like my food cold, but certain things need to be piping hot like noodle soup. Also there wasn't very much meat in the shaken beef dish. Service was great and the staff was very friendly. I'm pretty far from OMP, but will definitely come back again soon with my friends since they're regulars here!

    Ordered OMP Mainly House Special + Beef Rib…read more Service - Great as warmly greeted upon entry. The quality of the meats are top notch. Their beef rib 5/5 Easy to cut with scissors. Their filet is very tender. The meatballs are sourced elsewhere as they taste different from the norm in a good way. The brisket cut wasn't too thick. Their tendon is very easy to eat as most places can tend to overly hard. Good amount of tripe as well. The portions of meat given were a lot. There are only 2 things which could make this a solid 5/5 bowl. Hopefully owner reads this. The broth has to be served piping hot. Like burn under the gums temperature. After getting to the second half of finishing the meal , you get fatigued because the soup isn't hot enough which makes it harder to finish. Secondly, the broth needs just a little more salt content. The broth is good but just missing the "ommph" trifecta.
