    The decor is calm and inviting. I was promptly greeted as I entered. Their shrimp rolls are the best. The staff are very courteous. I will definately be back.

    I find myself lucky that I can find a good pho spot within walking distance from my place. Service is very good. Fast and attentive. Tried a few things here already and it's all been tasty. Very clean with modern decor. Really enjoy coming here

    New Pho restaurant in HB. Clean and well lit. Ordered a variety of dishes to try out the selection and overall was happy. Given how new the place is I'm sure the dishes will go through a little evolution. Great place to have it so close. Appetizers: Popcorn chicken came out hot and juicy and paired well with the sauce. Chicken wings with the Vietnamese house sauce were tasty. Service was very friendly and attentive. Entrees: Shaken Beef had the best sauce and the wok searing came through nicely. I finished up all the rice with the sauce in this dish. The build you own pho came with a very generous serving of noodles and a good balance of the meats. Broth base was fine but got much better with lime and chili garlic sauce at the table. House special rice looked great and just needed a little seasoning to be a stand alone dish. Great addition to the area.

    Tonight we tried Pho Lime N Basil and we will definitely be back. The food was well seasoned and the meat had so much flavor. Photos are of what we ordered. Delicious!!

    Seafood pan fried noodle.

    Our new favorites are the shrimp spring rolls with their peanut sauce and the seafood pho ap chao (pan seared wide noodles). Service was quick and attentive, and the place is clean and modern.

    Glad to see another pho place close to my house. I went to find a replacement pho place when the one I used to go closed down RIP silk noodle bar. This place has great beef spring rolls. I ordered the rare beef pho and my kid ordered the shaking beef. I also ordered the combination vermicelli dish another time. All the dishes were delicious! I didn't take a picture of the pho because I was too hungry

    It's okay overall in terms of food. It's newly opened so restaurant is clean and service is okay overall. Food wise...Nothing spectacular that wow'd me. We ordered two phos, a beef fried rice, and a dry combo pork and shrimp vermicelli noodle. Pho broth was on the sweeter side, the fried rice was more wet than dry, and in the vermicelli noodle the shrimp was cooked to perfection yet the grilled pork was fatty.

    Went back and tried a new dish. We still ordered the shakey beef which was delicious again. I wanted the chicken and shrimp vermicelli bowl, but he brought out just pork. It was still good, not as good as the shakey beef though. I also ordered a sandwich and wasnt a big fan of it. I'll definitely be back to keep trying out more dishes though because overall the food tastes like great quality food.

    New spot in Huntington Beach Pho Lime & Basil is serving up all the good stuff -- cozy pho (even with oxtail!), fresh banh mi, sizzling noodles, and plenty of veggie + gluten-free options. The space is bright, comfy, and just feels good to sit and enjoy a meal. Already loving the vibes here

    Fatty brisket pho, veggies
    Natalie S.

    My husband and I really enjoyed our lunch at Pho Lime N Basil! He said the broth was a little salty for his taste, but for my tastebuds it was perfect. It was not too oily either. The side of veggies were perfectly steamed as well, and made a great addition to the fatty brisket pho. Beware, the fatty brisket is indeed fatty! The flank steak in the pho is a better option if you want something more lean. We will be back!

    Egg rolls
    Adriana G.

    Where do I start? First time ordering and last. Ordered to go. Looking for a good pho place with good portions and good prices? Go to Pho Vie on beach & McFadden. Only wanted to try this place because it's closer to me. Service was good. They were friendly over the phone and in person. I ordered pho with oxtail and like in the picture shown, they hardly give enough oxtail. We order garlic noodles and they don't look like the picture shown. Looks like chow main with garlic. Only good thing was the pho broth and egg rolls. (Egg rolls are twice as big at the other pho place tho). Save your money!!! I could've had this for $55 at Pho Vie but instead paid almost $70

    Pho Lime & Basil in Huntington Beach ended up being a really solid find. From the moment we walked in, the staff was friendly and attentive without being over the top. We were seated quickly, drinks came out fast, and everything felt well-paced throughout the meal. I ordered the pho, and the portion size was no joke -- easily one of the biggest bowls I've been served in a while. The broth was rich and flavorful without being too heavy, the meat was tender, and everything tasted fresh. It hit the spot in that comforting, satisfying way you want pho to do. Pricing was very fair for the amount of food you get, which is always a huge plus. Overall, great service, generous portions, good value, and really tasty food. It's the kind of place you can come to casually and know you're going to leave full and happy. Definitely adding this into the regular rotation.

    The food is amazing. Oxtail very tender and a lot of pieces…read more The broth is also very rich, but not too greasy. 5/5 Comes with normal fairy of the jalapeños, bean, sprouts, lemon slices. The filet mignon fries are good, but the quality of itself is just OK and the meat instead of being cubed me there thin sliced marinated meat, which is nice but I would've preferred to cubed meat. 4/5 The lychee green tea was good as well. Little bit too sweet for my taste. Shrimp spring rolls were nice and fresh, wish they use Romain lettuce salary instead of iceberg lettuce. 5/5 Leave side of tendon and tripe came separately and were very nice. 5/5 The service was interesting, there was a server, but also all of the kitchen stuff and the dishwasher or server also asked how everything was. Very attentive and kind.

We ordered the plain pho for my child, and the flavor was just okay. I don't know if it's because it was a plain bowl and the flavor was naturally more mild, or if it came from a different pot, but either way, it was pretty meh. I've definitely had better. My husband and I both got the bun thit nuong. The portion was huge and could easily have been shared. The meat was really flavorful, and the fish sauce was also very good. The pork spring rolls were ok, nothing special. As for the ambiance, it definitely had more of a hole-in-the-wall feel. I'm not sure if another party had just left, but the area where we sat wasn't very clean and the table/area felt really sticky. Overall, I probably wouldn't come back. Maybe we just caught them on an off day, but based on the high rating, I was expecting more.

    I've been going to Pho HP off and on for a few years now…read more It is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in my general area. If i lived closer, i would definitely go more often. It is family owned. It is located in a strip mall in Huntington Beach at the corner of Beach and Main. A very busy intersection. There is parking in front of the restaurant. They have a handicap ramp. The interior design is modern and simplistic. Everyone is always friendly and we Love Amy the owner. Although, we have been missing her over the past couple of visits. When you walk in, you'll get seated right away and the server will bring you a glass bottle of Alkaline water. Nice touch! The menu is simple and on point. They offer all the main traditional Vietnamese dishes. For starters, we ordered the crispy veggie egg rolls which comes with 4 egg rolls, the summer rolls with shrimp which also comes in 4 pieces. As a main course, we got 2 shrimp pho's with vegan broth (yes they brought back the vegan broth) Thank you Amy It is light and goes really well with the shrimp. Make sure to add lots of fresh basil for a flavor boost. And we also got the house garlic prawns which comes with either steam rice or garlic noodles as well as steamed brocoli. Everything is delicious. The Pho noodle soup is a must. It is available with different meats and broths with option of thick or thin rice noodles. In my opinion, It is the best. And i believe that most people go there specifically for their Pho. That is what got me hooked. Overall Pho HP is always a great experience and we will be back again soon. I highly recommend Pho HP.

Their phos were delicious and so comforting. The broth is on the darker side, but it still tasted light and not too fatty. They use the thick noodles which is a plus. The garlic noodles were yummy and garlicky. The filet mignon was perfectly cooked on the medium rare side. Staff were friendly and helpful! Clean and modern space too.

    Worth every penny!…read more I've been here before and always liked this place, but this was our first time coming back with the kids and somehow I think I like it even more now! First off, the food was delicious. I've had A LOT of matcha and matcha fusion drinks, but the coconut matcha here is really unique and sooo good. Everything from the appetizers to the entrees and desserts was great. Some of our favorites were the garlic noodles with spicy sauce, seafood ceviche, squid and mango salad, and crab toast. The desserts were also surprisingly good. The banana bread pudding was amazing, and we really liked the frozen yogurt parfait. It's not your typical frozen yogurt dessert--I think it might be more of a Vietnamese-style yogurt--but whatever it is, it was delicious. What really stood out to me this time though was how kid friendly the place is. We have an infant and a toddler, and there was actually enough room around our seating to keep the stroller with us without feeling like we were completely in the way. I also really appreciated the music level. So many restaurants nowadays blast music to the point where you start wondering if it's too much for babies and toddlers. Here, they hit the sweet spot. Loud enough to create a nice vibe, but not so loud that we were worried about the kids. Service was exceptional too. And trust me, kids can make a mess lol. Our toddler spilled a drink and our waiter was so understanding about it. More importantly, you could tell it was genuine. There was no judgment, no annoyed reaction, nothing that made us feel uncomfortable or embarrassed. When you're dining out with little kids, that kind of attitude from the staff really makes a difference. I already liked this place before having kids, but I honestly didn't expect the experience to be even better coming back as a family. Great food, really good drinks, amazing service, and surprisingly kid friendly. Definitely a place we'll keep coming back to.

It seemed like they were in a bad mood and annoyed that they had to do their job. This wasn't a big deal at all, but it did take a little while for us to get seated, even though we had a reservation and they had called us 5 minutes prior to confirm we were coming. Granted, we were a large party, but it was kind of odd. We were also seated at two different tables next to each other instead of one long table. We were also only given 3-4 menus for a party of 15 and didn't get enough utensils at first. Our server was friendly and helpful, so I thank him for that. However, part of our party's food came out 5-10+ minutes before the rest of the party, so it was kind of awkward having to wait and the food got a bit cold. Maybe it was because they were busy, but I wish they timed the food a little better. I got the garlic noodles with filet mignon ($25). You can choose to have the meat cooked rare, medium, or well done. The taste was good, but nothing special (as I had read in other reviews). On a positive note, they did give us a complimentary appetizer (spicy wontons with shrimp) that I really liked! They also give us complimentary matcha cheesecake because we were celebrating two birthdays, so that was very nice of them. Overall, I don't believe they live up to the hype. Maybe it was just because we were a large party, but I had hoped to have had a better experience. I probably won't be back :/
