I ordered the Stir Fried Filet Mignon Pho. It came out within 10 minutes. It was good! The meat was soft and not chewy. The pho broth was tasty. This is a great place for dates or hanging out with friends or family! The parking lot is medium sized so come during nonpeak hours. I recommend this place if you want good pho. read more

I've reviewed this place before, and I believe I've already given it 5 stars. A good chunk of my family members go here for their $6 bowl of tendon and broth. Haha! They are in their 80s and still think they can consume their collagen through this bowl and wake up looking younger. I must say, they look pretty good for their age. I'm sure it's an Asian thing. I'm just their driver. When I drive them, I eat for free! So of course I love it here. I always get the pork bowl with the egg rolls and noodles. That's a winner. read more

Haven't been in a while but thought of them for a quick take out meal. The restaurant is dated but clean. The service was good. I ordered the lemongrass beef noodle and a couple spring rolls. The flavor is good and the portions are HUGE! I couldn't finish! I would definitely go back for another meal. My husband had the chicken pho and he said it is tasty and again a HUGE portion! read more

Review 45/365 Day Challenge We came here for Brunch for the 1st time w a great Gfren and her hubby along w my hubby and daughter 05.04.25 It was 9:30 am and we were seated right away. What we ordered ~ #1 PHỞ TÁI FILET MIGNON/Rare filet mignon. Is always the way to go. The broth was delicious, clean and good, the noodles were plentiful and the filet mignon meat. ~ # 23 Bone w Meat was a must and the icing to our pho bowl. It came w 2 huge rib bone.

The vermicelli bowl had fresh vegetables and tender, savory charbroiled pork. There was a bit more fat sections on the pork slices than I would have preferred. I lightly drizzle them with fish sauce to enhance the flavors. The fresh mint leaves balance the otherwise smokey profile of the dish. There is a variety of textures and flavors from the egg rolls, roasted peanuts, pickled carrots, and fresh cucumbers that gives the entire dish an interesting (and satisfying!) flavor. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable of the menu options. The place is clean albeit with the presence of a rogue fly. There is plenty of parking, even though shared with other businesses. read more

Mmm this place is so well rounded. I can see why they have several locations around OC. The broth is delicious and the meats are soft and plentiful in each bowl you order. The service is amazing!

For the Pho, I got number 13 Large and let me tell you they do not skimp on the meats and noodles. Broth was very hearty and the protein was delicious. Would highly recommend if you were looking for a good pho bowl. Came back again today 3/12, got the pho Super Bowl well worth the price plenty of noodles and protein! read more

I'm not sure why this place is rated so low, because it's an overall great spot for solid pho. It's located in a popular strip mall with plenty of parking, which makes it super accessible. The pho is delicious, and their other dishes are just as good--especially the vegetarian stir-fries and spring rolls. What really stood out to me was the peanut sauce. It's one of the best I've had: super aromatic and well balanced. Most places just mix hoisin sauce with peanut butter, but this one seems to add garlic oil, which gives it such a rich depth of flavor. I'm definitely taking inspiration from that sauce for my own cooking moving forward. read more

We visited this location next to 85 degree bakery. My son recalled it was good pho last time he ate a long time ago and asked me to give it a try. The pho was good. I felt like it had a good amount of MSG in it though, my throat felt a bit weird afterwards. I liked that the beef was thinly sliced. The price was average compared to other local pho restaurants. I liked that they take credit card payment, not like the infamous cash-only Pho 79 which now has plenty of competitions. I didn't like the choice of using chairs with heavy metal legs. The chair was heavy, uncomfortable to move around, and painful to touch against. I felt like it could be a hazard and potential future legal issue for using these heavy metal-legged chairs. Will I be back? Yes, but definitely not too often due to the weird after taste, which felt a bit unhealthy and the uncomfortable seating arrangement. read more

Really solid Vietnamese spot--clean, modern, and easy to get in and out. Service was great, and prices are very reasonable for the portion size. I had the seafood fried pho and couldn't even finish it--super generous portion. Food was well-seasoned and tasted fresh. Plenty of parking, and since it's a big space, you don't have to wait. Definitely a good go-to spot. read more

There are three locations. This is the second. We like coming here because we never have to fight for parking and this location is not as busy as the others. You are always guaranteed to walk in and not having to wait. The pho is always consistent unlike other places. You have a choice of large or thin noodles. I like thin unless it's northern style. We also ordered a rice shaken beef dish and it was very flavorful and comes with veggies on the side. read more

Service was great and food came out quickly. We were wondering why the broth tasted so good - it didn't require any additional sauce at all but realized they put A LOT of msg. Immediately after we both felt very tired and thirsty. We chalked it up to a food coma/ mid day slump but it knocked us out for the rest of the day. I feel like I sound like I'm exaggerating but others have said the same in other reviews so I'm not crazy. It was so much so I went to bed at 8pm with a migraine because of the saltiness. The meat was good though and I like having a choice in the noodle size. Not sure if I would come back. If I do I just won't drink the soup. read more

The portion size is so huge, so it's really good value for money. We also got the crispy spring rolls on the side and it was delicious and filling too. The service is quick and I liked how the tables and seats are spacious. Would definitely return! read more

Broth was yummy, and they gave us a good amount of meat. Eggrolls and spring rolls were also very tasty. The green Thai tea with coconut milk was delicioussss, especially because that isn't the most common drink to find! With all that being said, it wasn't a complete 5 stars for me (I'm very very picky with my pho) but it was still great and I see why I've heard this place being people's go-to spot.

Not sure why this place has a low average. Honestly, everything we tasted here was delicious. The egg rolls were crispy and plump full of meat. The spring rolls were also jam packed with meat and the peanut dipping sauce was great. The pho is a pretty nice size, so I shared with my sister. The broth was rich and flavorful and the meat nicely tender. The stir fry noodles were also very good, perfectly crispy and didnt even taste oily. The meat was tender and the gravy went well. The service was good, a tad bit slow but not too bad. read more

I joined the Mama Hieus App which makes ordering ahead easier for pickup. I really like the app bc its simple to plan your dinner ahead. You can pick the day and time you want to pick-up. If I could make one request, is if you can give customers (me) the option to pay like extra $1-$2 for their orders to be ONLY FLAT WINGS on small orders. The chicken is so well crispy and coated and the non flat wings are too meaty but then carry less of your delicious seasoning in my opinion. Does that request exist? I guess I should ask this with your staff in person if I can get a special request to get all flat wings only. Overall, still love your wings and travel once a week when I can from Irvine to get them to share with my Mom for our bonding time.

We got the Garlic Butter Wings and the Fish Sauce Wings (similar to Bonchon/IYKYK) with a side of sweet potato fries which also was delicious. Service was great, food came out in a timely manner. Can't ask for more. Seating and Environment was highly appreciated as there was plenty to select from. Will def return if we are back in the area.

New arrival!

Arguably one of the best pho places in my opinion. I think this place is older than I am, because…read moreI've been coming here since I was a baby! Over all those years, they have never disappointed me and continue to serve really good food. I usually get the beef brisket pho and it's really good. The noodles are just the right texture, the broth is clean and flavorful, and the meat tastes fresh and tender. Their dui bo is also very good, but usually runs out after 1:00 or 2:00 pm, since they only have a limited amount of this item every day. The meat is fall off the bone tender and has a more fatty flavor to it. It usually sits in some broth that absorbs that beefy and fatty flavor from the bone. A great addition to any bowl of pho. Alternatively, I sometimes also get the bun thit nuong and it's very good. The eggrolls it comes with is wrapped with rice paper, so when it's fried up, it has such a satisfying crunch and texture to it. The thit nuong is has a nice smokey, grilled flavor to it. The shrimps are okay as well. This is a very satisfying and filling dish, so if you're looking for a high volume dish, this may be the one to get. Expect long lines during peak hours. I can confirm though that the wait is worth it! Service is always very good. The ambiance on the inside is fine, very plain and unassuming in my opinion. It's really the pho that shines through at this restaurant. Parking can be a little tricky during peak hours.

The best pho in OC hands down…read more Came in Sunday afternoon for lunch, lots of parking but busy! Be prepared for parking and maybe to wait. Put your name on the list hanging outside the door and they will call you when ready! We were sat almost immediately though. Inside is a large scale mom and pop shop that is FILLED with people and workers. We ordered a medium and large #23 pho and 2 waters, we got everything not even 5 minutes later. When I tell you this is the BEST broth I've ever had, it blew me away. I'm not one to usually order extra noodles but for this place I would order as many noodles until I ran out of broth, it is that good. Noodles were on the soggier side, I'm not picky about noodles but if you are then this is something to consider. Portions were huge for the price, very happy with that. CASH ONLY. I didn't see an ATM there but I'm sure they had one. Will always recommend and they have a new customer for whenever I'm in OC.

The broth was rich, comforting, and super flavorful without feeling too heavy, and you could really taste the quality of the meat. My favorite dish from the meal was definitely the shaken beef because it was so tender and packed with flavor. I also really appreciated that the entire menu is halal certified because it makes the spot feel even more special and inclusive. Overall such a comforting meal and definitely somewhere I'd come back to again.

We started with the Vietnamese coffee ($7), which was bold, strong, and nicely balanced with the sweetness from the condensed milk. A great way to kick things off. The egg rolls ($10) were packed with beef, shrimp, wood ear mushroom, and vermicelli--crispy on the outside and paired perfectly with fresh lettuce and fish sauce. The standout for me was the flaming wagyu ($18), torched tableside. For how thick the cut was, it was incredibly tender and soft. Definitely go medium rare. The ponzu dipping sauce really enhances the richness of the beef. We also tried the shaken beef ($21), which came with plenty of caramelized onions and bell peppers that added a subtle sweetness. The beef was slightly charred, bite-sized, and super satisfying--especially with rice. The combo pho ($25) came loaded with a variety of meats, all tender and melt-in-your-mouth. The broth had a deep, beefy richness, and the noodles were perfectly soft. Add in the garnishes for some crunch and it really ties everything together. Overall, a solid spot with quality ingredients and flavorful dishes. Would definitely come back if I'm in the area.
