Came across Pho Ly Quoc Su while having a doctor's appointment close by. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is nice and clean and nicely decorated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I arrived shortly after 11:00 am and the place was dead with no other party being present.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ended up ordering the Shrimp Vermicelli with eggs roll which was great! Give them a try when in the neighborhood. Bon Appetit read more

Took my parents here to try this local spot instead of having to drive all the way down to Westminster for pho. We enjoyed the pho it was delicious. We all ordered number 17, they had large or small bowls. We got the small bowls and the portion size was great. The flavors were on point, lots of meat. It comes with fresh bean sprouts, Thai basil, sliced jalapeños, and lime wedges. Service is great, the gentleman was very friendly, efficient, and professional. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is nice, lots of seating, and clean location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Pho Ly Quoc Su - 17. Pho Tai Nam Gau - Vietnamese Near Me - La Palma, California

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This place redesigned their place with a new sign/different name and there's never any customers, but I figured I'd give it a try and this was a one-and-done experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It seems to me like it's a family business but the ambiance of the place is dead as there was only one customer besides me and my friend.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was also stuffy in there even though we came at night.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They had two TV's but only one was on and it was playing this karaoke/Christmas song on repeat which wasn't great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their prices for all their food seemed pricey as well for mid food. I got their #62 COM SUON NUONG (Rice with Pork Chop) and as appealing as it looked, it wasn't great taste-wise overall. The pork chop was tender and seasoned but tasted bland without their fish sauce. The onions that came on top of the pork chop were the only thing that was flavorful. The sliced radish/carrots tasted bland and bitter. Usually compared to other pho places, radishes/carrots taste sweet so this threw me off. My friend got their #12 PHO CHAY (Vegetarian Pho Style) which was decent and the only vege pho on their menu. The vegetables inside tasted fresh and the broth was also good. There's only one size for their vegetarian pho though which was large. Overall, it wasn't the best experience and I won't be coming back. read more

This is hands down the best pho spot in town. I've been coming here since they first opened, and I've been a regular ever since. I come here so often that the owner recognizes me every time I walk in. She's always incredibly welcoming and does her absolute best to take care of everyone. She runs the place by herself, so when it gets busy, service can slow down a bit--but you can tell she's working hard and genuinely cares about her customers. If you come often enough, she might even memorize your order! (Mine is ridiculously complicated, too. ) The biggest thing that keeps me coming back is the consistency. The broth is always rich, flavorful, and served piping hot. There's nothing worse than getting a lukewarm bowl of pho, and I've never had that problem here. Another little detail I really appreciate: when I ask for no cilantro, they actually only leave out the cilantro. A lot of pho places remove both the cilantro and green onions, but not here. (Cilantro tastes like soap to me... don't judge. ) The portions are huge, and it feels like the meat never ends. (Not sure if she just hooks me up because she knows me, but I'm not complaining!) Personally, the rare steak and flank aren't my favorites, so I always order the tendon--and it absolutely smacks every single time. If you're looking for consistently amazing pho made by someone who truly cares about her customers, do yourself a favor and give this place a try. I recommend it to everyone. read more

All I can is Wow! I have had a lot of Pho in my lifetime, but this was one of the most delicious Pho I have had! The meat just fell off the bone and the broth was so tasty. I did not want to alter it with any hoisin or Sriracha. It was an impromptu visit as I was getting my car waxed across the street at the car wash. I saw that they were open so I gave them a try and I am so glad I did. They were very friendly and welcoming and I had a nice chat with Julie. I will definitely be back with my family. read more

A little family-run Vietnamese oasis in a Korean strip mall. We had the bun and found it tasty. It's family-run so service can get slow when there are multiple tables to attend to. Food was okay and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the location looks like it was recently remodeled so it looks clean and tidy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Came here again yesterday. We were seated quickly and our order was taken in just a few minutes. I decided to try the shrimp pho, #11 on the menu since I always get brisket. I'm trying not to have red meat as much anymore, it's nice they have options here. The food was good. I decided to add a little chili oil and the spice elevated the flavor for sure. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is always clean when we've come before and it's still clean now[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], [[HIGHLIGHT]]glad there was more people here when we came and the service is always good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I popped in for lunch one day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is pretty small but cozy and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was seated and helped right away. Within 5 minutes I had a bowl on the table. It doesnt get much better than that. The broth is clean and flavorful with plenty of noodles and other toppings to work though. I usually get the combo with everything. The only thing that I wish there was more of in my bowl was tendon... I can't get enough. haha. I will definitely be returning. Nice location, fast, friendly service, great flavor, and a fair price. read more

I came here with my boyfriend for dinner. We were originally looking for Noodle Factory, but discovered it had closed and this restaurant had taken it's place. This place still had noodles so we were ok with having dinner here. We were seated right away and took some time to look at the menu. The decor is simple and clean. To drink I got the Thai milk tea and my boyfriend ordered the Vietnamese coffee. The Thai milk tea was delicious and my boyfriend enjoyed his strong coffee. For our entrees I got the bbq pork with vermicelli noodles and my boyfriend got the chicken wings and fried rice. My noodle bowl was really good, all the ingredients were fresh and the noodles had a nice bite to them. I really liked all the fresh vegetables, especially the spiral cut cucumber. The pork was flavorful and fatty which contrasted well with the fresh veggies and noodles. My boyfriend liked his fried rice, but said the wings were a little messy to handle. We had a nice and delicious dinner here. read more

Pho Ly Quoc Su is a great local spot for Vietnamese food prepared and served with care. I've dined here a few times and take-out a couple of times. Food has always been delicious and satisfying. My go-to items are the pho bo and spring rolls. I look forward to trying more items soon like the rice dishes. The restaurant is next to a Korean market; the interior has ample seating and a quiet vibe. Some light music would help brighten the atmosphere. The staff and owner are kind and attentive. Some reviewers say this place has or doesn't have that authentic taste. I have no comparison to what's "authentic," but I really enjoyed the meals here, and that's all that matters. Being local is a big plus, without having to drive to Little Saigon in Garden Grove. Highly recommend. read more

3/8/24 It was a chilly night and a great time for some Pho for dinner. I tagged along with my sister and her family. We always past this mini-strip mall area and this was our First time trying this restaurant. Parking: lots First impression, clean, you can smell it too. Very a spacious and bright. Service: she was the server, the waitress, the bus lady and the cashier. She was quick! Friendly and attentive as well. Food: only going to rate what I ordered. I had the ox tail pho. When it first came out, it didn't look like what I normally get at other pho places and not to mention, what I received did not resemble their photo from the menu. I was expecting the large bones. Nevertheless, the broth had depth of flavor, it was delicious. The oxtail was tender, but it had too much fat and tendon for me. I also ordered the crispy shrimp rolls. The shrimps were fresh and the rolls were crispy. Overall rating from my sister's family, thumps up. Looks like we will all be back. read more

New pho spot close to home. Got my usual pho dac biet , but to go: raw meats were packed separately from noodles and broth, asked for steamed bean sprouts, a separate bag of the limes, basil leaf bunches and prepackaged sriracha and oyster sauce. Broth : 8/10 : piping hot, not as sweet as others I've had , very clean and not fatty. Meats : 5/10 after being in the hot broth the raw meat ended up being an oddly stringy chewy texture, the tendon and the other meats were also a little tough. Crispy egg rolls also had a bit of too swiney flavor and not enough crunch. Quick pickup and clean inside. I think pho is one of those very comforting foods especially when temperatures drop , this old girl cannot enjoy the winter weather of 60 and below during the day!! Three stars because it's a small place and not part of a chain. read more

Fast service. Granted it was empty when I was there. The food was decent. Can't say it's the best I ever had but it solved my craving. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall ambiance: this seems like a family restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is also really clean. Our server was constantly cleaning around and organizing the place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Hope business picks up for them :) read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Horrible place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered a number 63 and it's supposed to come with egg quiche. However, the lady informed me that there's no more quiche and offered to give me friend egg instead. I asked if I can get more Chinese sausage instead. She agreed, but when I got home, there were literally 4 pieces of Chinese sausage. I also ordered the number 69, which is the shaken beef, and again it had very little beef. This beef dish barely had any beef. I will not be returning. read more

This location has always been a pho shop for as long as I can remember but it's changed names and ownership. Out of all the pho in the La Palma/Cerritos area my husband says this is the most authentic. They decorated for Christmas already so the store front is really pretty and the inside is so cozy. It got a little stuffy cause the air wasn't on and that's my only complaint. Service was really friendly and the lady checked up on us also. The small size was enough for me and my husband but we got hungry quickly, that's the only downside of pho. Easy parking and it's right next to the Korean market. read more

I ordered pho dac biet to go from here. I thought the pho broth was on the sweeter side, which isn't that great. I asked for the fresh big noodles, which they didn't carry. I would give other pho restaurants a try before coming back to here. The restaurant was completely empty when I came around dinner time read more

The food was alright, not the best but it was good enough for me. My grandpa said it was a little bland, but he came from Vietnam so his expectations were higher.

Excellent Pho, but extremely slow service. Their broth and meats are excellent and wonderful. However, a few times we have been there, the service has been so slow, with one time us waiting over 20 minutes just to get menus at our orders taken. And we weren't the only ones. We will continue to frequent other pho places that are even further away and even more crowded, because the service here is so slow anyway. We hope they succeeded, because they have excellent food, but expect long waits, even when the restaurant isn't fully packed. Overall, we knocked off one star for the long wait times compared to any other pho place we have tried. And yes, we've tried dozens of places across the country and in Vietnam. read more

I only chose this place out of closeness to my house. Pho (#14) was pretty good considering I wasn't feeling well so it did the job. Pork spring rolls wont be ordered again. I'm very confused when I ordered it online for pickup. It told me it would be 20 mintues before its ready. Not a problem, but then it changed to 45mins. I got to the restaurant and NOBODY was in the eating. The place was empty so I dont know why these 2 items took so long. Sorry no pictures since I wasn't feeling well when I ordered this a few days ago. read more

Solid Vietnamese meal. Came here for lunch, no wait. The woman who took our order was very kind and made sure we had everything we needed. The hu tieu was so good!

I truly believe if you go to an Asian establishment don't have high expectations of service versus the foods and its quality. Food: Fresh tasting pho! I had the combo which was excellent. My kids favorite has to the combination pho and they thoroughly enjoyed it. Shrimp rolls and shrimp and pork spring rolls and the combinations platter are very good and fresh as well. They got great tasting thai ice teas, smoothies with boba too. The restaurant: Is not super crowded but we hit a perfect window and got seated right away. It was clean and casual. A hidden gem right in between the Korean Market and BOBA LOCA. Service: Service was lighting fast, not only for us but for those around us as well. Our severs were pretty friendly and answered all our questions and recommendations were on point. All their dishes were amazing tasty just like the name of the restaurant. Whatever you pick you will not be disappointed. Prices: Food prices are very reasonable! I shall return and I highly recommend it. read more

The servers were nice, but overall, our experience here was unpleasant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The utensils we received were dirty, and it was bad enough that we asked for a plastic spoon to use with the broth.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Both my wife and I noticed black specks in our water cups, which was concerning. Even some of our vegetables had black specks on them which really raised my 'brow. The food was not good. we ordered fried rice and pho with briskets but unfortunately, we both ended up with stomach aches later that night--this was the only place we had eaten. I hope these issues can be addressed, but just a heads-up to others considering a visit. read more

While there are some better pho restaurants in the surrounding area, Pho ly Quoc Su is definitely one of the most authentic. Seems like the restaurant was run by a husband and wife duo, and they made sure to check up on us constantly for anything we needed. The pho broth was flavorful, but meat portion were a bit small. They do offer a large and small size though, so not sure if the large would have more protein. Would definitely come back to try their other menu items. read more
