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.

Aftermath of the pho special.

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.

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!

Casual and typical ambiance for a viet restaurant. Always quick service and friendly staff. Great comfort food and generous portions.

Oxtail pho

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.

Reviews are mixed. Many praise the flavorful pho and spring rolls, friendly and fast service, and inviting atmosphere. Pricing is also considered reasonable.

I am not often in the Ontario area, but was so glad I found this gem. When we arrived on a Friday…read morenight, the place was super packed. We luckily didn't have to wait too long for a party of 5. We got our usual dishes: pho, shrimp spring roll, egg rolls, and pork with vermicelli noodles. We also tried their house special, beef and fries. It was unique but was just ok for us. Not likely a dish we would order again. Service was friendly and prices were on the good side. We returned a few weeks later and honestly, we would again if we're in the area.

Bone & Broth is a solid 4 out of 5!…read more I can appreciate the quality and taste of the food; I just don't stand behind the hype. It's definitely above the average Pho place.. but not the experience I'd want to wait 45+ minutes for. Service was attentive during the initial ordering process, after that we were pretty much forgotten about. I don't think intentionally. I think they just assume you don't need anything else, and they're so overwhelmed with customers that their main priority is getting everyone in and out as quickly as possible. I tried a few appetizers, pork and shrimp fried roll, fresh bread and other items. All great! I also opted for the filet mignon pho. Broth was absolutely fantastic!! However, the portions are small! My main complaint was the amount of noodle and filet I received. A very small portion that left me unsatisfied. I wouldn't see myself craving this place. If I'm in the area, I might eat it. I don't think it deserves a 5 nor does It deserve a 3! An affordable and above-average pho place! Try it at least once.

We came here about 1 hour before closing time. The staff took care of us as we came in. A few more families stopped by to dine and orders were picked up. I ordered the Shrimp Pho and my husband ordered their pork spring rolls. They were prepared within a few minutes. The broth was light and had a good amount of flavor. Some pieces of my shrimp were not fully deveined, so I ate around them. Other than that, they were cooked perfectly. What I liked most about their pho was the bits of crispy fried onion. I know not all pho spots include that, so it was nice to have it there. The restaurant is clean, has plenty of tables and booths. They have promotional posters displayed on their walls as well. Overall, I would come back if I'm ever in the area again. It definitely satisfied my craving. Thank you, Pho Ha!

The same waitress we've dealt with in the past continues to be extremely rude. She has gotten our order wrong before and tends to argue instead of resolving issues. There also seems to be a communication barrier, which wouldn't be a problem if there was at least some effort to be patient or respectful but there isn't. Tonight really crossed the line. We arrived about 30 minutes before closing, which is still reasonable time to dine in. The waitress made direct eye contact with me when we walked in, yet never greeted us or acknowledged us. A man came in after us and was immediately welcomed and told to take a seat. Meanwhile, my son and I stood there waiting with no direction. Eventually, I had to ask where we could sit. The man at the register mentioned they close at 9 PM and asked if we wanted to dine in or do takeout. Since we still had time, we chose to eat there. We sat down and again, nothing. The waitress walked past us multiple times, even bringing condiments and service to the man who came in after us, completely ignoring us. At around 8:45 PM, she finally approached us. As I began placing my order, she cut me off to ask "for here or takeout," then suddenly changed it to "actually, you can only do takeout." This was confusing and frustrating, especially since the other customer was clearly still being served for dine-in. I went to the register to place and pay for my order, and I asked her why the same rule didn't apply to the man behind us. She said he was dining in. That didn't make sense, considering we arrived first. The situation turned into her arguing with me claiming she didn't see us earlier and even disputing who brought us water. On top of everything, I was left feeling severely embarrassed in front of other customers, especially with my child there to witness it. No parent should have to experience that kind of treatment while simply trying to have a meal. By 9 PM, the man who came after us was already being served his food while we were denied the same service. This experience felt not only disrespectful but also discriminatory. It's disappointing because I've tried to support this place multiple times, but the consistent poor treatment and lack of professionalism make it impossible to return. I won't be coming back.

05/24/26 Sunday…read more Stars: 4.5/5 Our friends booked this venue for their wedding reception. Sea Queen has a restaurant side and a banquet hall side. We had the banquet hall side and it was able to accommodate 200 guests. They had the place set up early and allowed the wedding party to come in advance to drop off drinks, decor, etc. They allowed us to bring food and alcohol. They also prepaid for drinks from the bar so folks could order from a bartender. Only a few dishes were ordered (since there was other food from an outside catering vendor) and I only got to try it after it was cold so I can't give a wholistic review on the food they serve, but I really liked the leaf wrapped beef with Banh Hoi (vermicelli sheet) and the mango salad! My one complaint is the women's bathroom. Two (out of 3) of the stalls can't lock so the girls had to help each other hold the doors closed. However, it was mostly clean and had toilet paper in stock. +They offer takeout containers for leftovers from the party. +Very kind and accommodating staff. They cleared some tables to create more space on the dance floor. +Parking is plentiful.

FANTASTIC PLACE FOR FOOD AND A PARTY!…read more I had the privilege of being invited to a party with some friends who had booked their event with Sea Queen Restaurant and I cannot deny that I was only impressed with the food, decor, staff, and the entire experience. If you are interested in booking your own event here, I recommend it. If you have no events coming up and just want some amazing food, still come here for that too! Amazing dishes are cooked and served here. It is mostly Vietnamese cuisine that you would find here, but hey... who doesn't enjoy this kind of cuisine? There is so much this restaurant has to offer. Not to mention there are weekly events; even a karaoke night. Lastly, if you enjoy sea snails, escargot, and don't want to drive out of the IE to the OC for some... just come here!
