I usually like to recommend people towards restaurant finds and away from disappointments. This is that rare place that is good, worth visiting, but not obsessing over. My fave rave is PHO LONG in Colton, but if that's understandably too far for you there's nothing wrong with PHO ISLAND. If you empty your vermicelli bowl here, it must be pretty good. And it is. My partner in crime got a tofu vermicelli bowl and was impressed. My shrimp and pork and crispy fried rolls bowl was definitely tasty. And the pricing was very reasonable. The only catches here were odd -- 1. When approaching the entrance, there was an awful 'sewage' like smell. When leaving, it was there again -- but it was really farming manure in the air everywhere. Not their fault, but not appetizing. 2. Apparently this place opened 16 years ago, and it's starting to show on the interior furniture. I know fixing things up would likely raise prices, but I saw a couple kinda dressed up on a date -- and the place could be a little more dressed up itself. 3. The shrimp in my bowl arrived on a thin stick skewer. To have a shrimp you must pick up the stick by the tips and pull one off. Well that shrimp apparently came right off the grill because it burnt my fingertip. It was like picking up a wooden match seconds after it's been used. That said -- this place was bustling on a Friday night, nearly full -- which means they're doing most things right. read more

This place was OK. The broth didn't taste as authentic more. The darker side and a meat was mid quality had it for the first time will probably not come back. I guess it is what it is in Ontario or maybe I'm just spoiled by some of the Westminster and Garden Grove pho. Tried it n done. read more

Pho Island Restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Ontario, California

The Pho is always amazing and my go to when I'm in Ontario. The Pho special is always consistent and always hits the spot. Customer service is always good and gets my order right. Ambiance is still average noise depending on if the place is packed or not. When I went on a Saturday afternoon it wasn't loud but the restaurant is sure inviting. Another great Pho experience. I ordered the small Pho Special with extra tendons. read more

went to gym and then got the pho island special and egg rolls! GREAT price and decent amount of food. Pho broth was so savory and perfect amount of sweetness. the richness in flavor with the generous portions of meat, makes this my go to. the egg rolls are skinny and long and were super crispy. workers were very nice i called in and it was ready within 5-10 minutes. i usually dine in but the to go is still fresh. read more

Great service and clean restaurant! Ordered the chicken and combo pho. So delicious! Highly recommend.

This is the spot in the area if you're having hangovers from your summer nights out because they have x-large size for their pho. I choose this location over their other ones and will make the drive here because they actually blast their AC. Pho Ga (Chicken)- savory but clean and flavorful. Theirs comes with fried shallots which adds so much depth. Only comes with white meat, but has never been dry or over cooked. Bun Bo Hue (Spicy Hue's Style Noodle Soup)- rich and so much depth. Theirs comes with pork hock and a couple blood cubes. Pho Da Biet (Pho Island Special)- of course a classic. Perfect for those days you just need soup. X-large for me please! read more

We were greeted and seated quickly. Great service and great food! Definitely recommend

The best pho spot in Chino Hills. I used to go to another one but this spot has topped me. The pho is soo good and then they have so many amazing options. Even for non pho eaters. Def coming back 10/10. read more

Love the food, very delicious!!!! Will continue to come back. Wait time a little too long. They need more workers on the floor. Over all the food is decent. read more

I'm so sorry I rlly wanted to like this place but unfortunately it falls into mid at best. I got a small bowl of pho and the broth lacked depth and tasted almost like instant seasoning/powder. Noodles were alright, could be chewier. It didn't feel earthy. I also got a lemonade and it didn't really taste much until I added more lime myself then it tasted super great. I was hungry so it got the job done, I still enjoyed it, just nothing special bout it. read more

First time calling to place a pickup order, and the attitude I got was unbelievable. The person answering the phone was straight-up rude for absolutely no reason. If this is how you treat new customers, I'll take my money somewhere else. Terrible first impression. read more

It was another chore Saturday--laundry and grocery shopping. Out of convenience, we decided on Eastvale for 99 Ranch and Costco. My mother in-law was tired of eating ramen, Korean, and dumplings so she chose pho since she was craving summer rolls. Yelp led us to Pho Island Restaurant which was a measly ten minute drive away. We walked in and one of the staff said we could seat ourselves. They quickly handed us menus and brought us waters. Seeing that we had two young children, they also brought two small kid's bowls with a set of utensils. How considerate! My wife's attention was caught by the special--oxtail pho. She ordered an XL bowl while the in-laws ordered a large bowl. I went for my usual combination. Appetizers were the classic spring and summer rolls. The food was ready in under ten minutes and we were busy enjoying the food. The spring rolls were long and thin; not my preference as I prefer the fat, stocky, meaty ones. The summer rolls weren't anything too special and probably could have benefited from basil or mint. My wife's extra large oxtail pho had two large hunks of oxtail meat but both of them were surrounded by fat. She only has about five bites of actual meat. This place isn't a bad option. Would come back to try other menu items. read more

I bought some take out. Generous portions, fresh flavor, tasty and efficient packing. We took it home and in about 10 minutes it was still very hot and tasty. They put in enough sauces, sides, utensils and cardboard to keep the broth from tipping. Reasonable pricing. Will go back soon. read more

Had few dinner there, nice place right next to Costco, food are pretty fresh, and server are very sweet. Restaurant is pretty new and not crowded. Little gem location for the locals. read more

I love pho island, I have been going here for years and the food has always been great!

Our favorite Pho restaurant in Chino Hills! They also make really good sandwiches, rice dishes, and stir fry noodles. Highly recommended!

Always good! Have been to this place since it is open. Good place to visit for a family gatherbig.

I want to start off by saying the customer service is top tier. Every time the family and I come the food never lets us down the quality is always the same. They have a neat little android robot that helps bring the food out that the kids enjoy. If you're looking for a place that legit has flavor this is the place. read more

We have been ordering from Pho Island for a while and their food is fresh and generous portions in my personal opinion. Glad to see that there is another location in Ontario. Having Vietnamese Food is one of our favorite food, especially the Noodle Vermicelli and for its flavor. We ordered for pick and ordered: Spring Rolls (3), #28 Noodle Vermicelli w/Charbroiled Pork (2). The Noodle Vermicelli comes with: Shredded Salad, Bean Sprouts, Mint, Cucumber, Picked Carrot, Radish. The Shrimp Spring Roll comes with: wrapped rice paper w/shredded lettuce, mints, bean sprouts, and vermicelli. When I arrived, I was welcomed by the friendly staff in the front. Arrived at home with our order and we wanted to have the Shrimp Spring Roll first. The part I loved when biting into the Shrimp Spring Roll was the crunch of the lettuce and the size of the Shrimp was very generous in my opinion and you can taste the basil. Especially if you dip the Spring Rolls with the Peanut sauce, just take it to another level. You can definitely taste the freshness of the ingredients. My favorite part of the Vermicelli is the charbroiled pork and the noodles. The pork is marinated and when it is charbroiled, it gives it a nice flavor in my opinion. As well as the small salad that it comes with, very fresh and nice addition of the small fish sauce that it comes with. You can put it on the salad and great for dipping it with the egg roll in my personal opinion. Our overall experience was great and the order was correct as always. In my personal opinion, I would recommend Pho Island Restaurant if you love Vietnamese food or if you want to try something new. Their prices are reasonable and the portions are generous in my opinion. Next time we order, we are going to try their other items on their menu. read more

I'm surprised this place was dead, they were very kind and attentive, food came out very fast. You can tell they take pride in their food just by the way they set it on the table for you. We got two shrimp spring rolls , 2 charbroiled pork, 1 beef and broccoli,1 fried rice. EVERYTHING was so amazing, I can't believe I've never been here before. The food portions are perfect for a family to share as we are a family of 4 and still had plenty to take home. We will definitely be back to try more food. read more

Unfortunately, this was a really disappointing experience. The service was unfriendly from the start, and to make matters worse, my order was wrong. While I wasn't charged for the mistake, the way it was handled was the biggest issue. Instead of being apologetic or acknowledging the inconvenience, the staff seemed more focused on defending themselves. I went out of my way to pick up the food, and having to deal with an incorrect order is already frustrating--being met with an unapologetic attitude just made it worse. Mistakes happen, but how a restaurant handles them matters. In this case, the lack of accountability and poor customer service left a bad impression. I won't be returning. read more

This was a close to home location that I've been coming here and there for pho over the years. I think it's a solid 4/5 but I think that my nostalgia has some part of the score as well. The service was fine, a little rushed and didn't have all of the answers, the interior has definitely gotten older as time went on, and the food was solid. Nothing to take of note other than I'd like for more flavor for my broth and I feel something was missing from the meal. 4/5 read more
