Stopped by after yelping for a Pho place, on my way back fromSolana beach! Love especially the pho broth. Good balance between noodle & meat ratio! The bathroom is very clean! A great surprise, big plus! For sure will come back when in neighborhood! Keep up the good pho! Thanks. PS: they take credit card, another + :-) read more

The owner lady is one of those types that refuses to be wrong. Once she gave us two orders of pho when we had only specified one. You can tell she was grumpy but the fault was hers alone. Usually that doesn't bother me, but she has a long history of having an attitude if you ask her for anything that is NOT on the menu, that is typically found at other Pho establishments (limeade for example, aka Vietnamese lemonade). I wish the answer was "No, I'm sorry we dont' have it" with a nice smile. But instead you get a "No" with an expression that makes you feel like YOU are the crazy one for asking her. I miss San Diego pho. Enough said. read more

This is my boyfriend and I's go-to pho spot! It is very clean, and we always get fast service. Not only that, but their food is delicious- especially their egg rolls! A must try in Oceanside if you love pho! read more

I asked for a little extra tendon and was provided a delicious side of tendon and onions in broth that knocked my socks off. This is a top notch Pho restaurant, in the top 3 of the 20 or so I've eaten at this year alone. read more

Pho Oceanside - Awesome!!!!! - Vietnamese Near Me - Oceanside, California

Good Pho! Take out is quick and the soup is nice and hot. Also they have good egg rolls. Not sure how everything else is but Pho and egg rols are all I need! read more

Staff is super friendly and nice!! Kid friendly. Not to mention the food is super yummy too!! Service is super quick. Didn't take long to be seated or get our orders. I got their beef vermicelli bowl with egg rolls and a Thai tea.... Mmmm mmmmmm!!! Definitely!!! If I lived in the area I would probably visit this place several times a week just so I could try their entire menu! read more

This is definitely not a good place to get Pho. Expect to wait ages to get your food, and when you do the noodles will be stuck together into one big noodle block read more

This place is quick, the lady that is always up front is kind & welcoming. The portions are fair for the price & it is always delicious. I get take out & they don't skimp...that makes me happy after a long work day & I'm craving my Pho! read more

We didn't even get asked if we wanted drinks upon sitting us down... they automatically brought over a small cup of water and forgot about us. We waited about 20 mins before someone took our order. (not same waiter who brought us to our table) She never returned until it was time for our bill. we had to get up and ask for drink refill and anything else we wanted. Horrible service. read more

Came from the The Flower Fields, Carlsbad. Since it was lunch time already, we ended up looking for a nearby Phò restaurant. This one has a good review so we went here. Phò noodles and soup are definitely delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful. If ever we are in the area will definitely come eat here again. read more

My husband is Vietnamese...his mom approved. Enough said. Eat here. Great food. Great service.

The best pho on Oceanside! I'm vegan so I get the vegetable broth pho with veggies and tofu (p16) and it taste great. Perfect for any time or season. My friends and family get the regular pho and fall in love every time. I have tried other pho but they don't compare. It is a great restaurant to get some authentic and tasteful pho. read more

The food is fine. Not good and not bad. Just a regular pho. Nothing outstanding. But the price is cheap.

Nice, clean place. Great pho. For the large one ($7.55) was really filling. (Small $6.50) Rice plate was great too, except no soup to go with it. The staffs were really friendly. This place was located close to the Best Western Oceanside Inn which made it nice. I recommend this place. read more

My family & I LOVE this place. There are much closer pho restaurants to our home but we'll always make the 10 mile drive to Pho Oceanside. The food is so delicious, the staff is prompt & friendly. Definitely check them out. read more

Honestly, I have NO CLUE why this place has so many great reviews. I have been at MANY Pho restaurants and this one was way below par. First off, their Hoisin sauce was terrible. It was from a manufacturer abroad; something like buying dollar store ketchup instead of Heinz ketchup. By far the worst. Hardly tasted like Hoisin. We ordered shrimp rolls and the peanut sauce that came with it was super gooey. The consistency was horrible and tasted like something creamy was added. (I will not explain further of what I can imagine what the addition really was) My girlfriend and I ordered Vermicelli noodle salad and the chicken was so processed that it didn't even really taste like chicken. It was below Taco Bell quality and was of a gummy consistency. I wanted to throw up. If you are extremely hungry and have no other options for food, then please choose this place. I will not be back. Pho Ca Dauo or Pho ever are better choices in my opinion. The ambiance was extremely quiet. I felt awkward. They need some music in there read more

Service was great. Food came quick and presentation was great. If your a new comer to pho this is the place to go! We ordered pho dishes 1. Spring roll 2. Crispy crepe (phowsome) 3. Beef pho Pho.. Ice cream green tea red bean... pho $1.95.!!! (Phowsome) Pho pho people the bill was unda photy dolla..! Pho getta bout it... This place is phowsome...! Yes it is... Was gonna give it a pho Starr but we gave it a fifff...! You go now! read more

The Pho here is pretty good. The portions size is good and prices are good. Especially when considering how close they are to the beach. The Pho tai came out very hot and tasty. The vermicelli beef dish was very well done also. The workers here are also very nice and helpful. Definitely is a good place to get some Vietnamese food in Oceanside. read more

This is my second time ever having pho (well, third considering I am currently eating the leftovers), and I enjoyed it. I ordered the special of the house. From reading other reviews, it seems that people think the broth isn't as "flavorful or savory" as other places but I found it quite nice, (this may be because I am not very picky or just an inexperienced Pho eater) it was very fragrant and beefy. I love spice so I added most of the garnish options available on the table...garlic paste, fresh basil, bean sprouts, fresh jalapeño, and some hoisin. The rare beef cooked in the hot broth while I ate and the tendon and tripe were both prepared excellently. None of the meat was chewy or dry and the noodles were perfect. Needless to say, after this experience I will definitely broaden my pho horizons and come back to this establishment. Four stars because overall I wasn't super impressed. I did enjoy my meal but not something to brag about to everyone I know. read more

Authentic Vietnamese food! Fresh ingredients. I was impressed!! Strongly recommend it. My classmates & I really enjoyed it

When its cold and i'm craving pho this is the place I go. They are very quick with phone orders and are very friendly. The pho has excellent flavor and tastes amazing. Prices are decent! I recommend this place! read more

3* for food. I'm Vietnamese and I know my food! My friends said this place is good, that's why I wanna give it a try. I had the Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio (vermicelli with eggrolls and grilled pork). It was ok, nothing special. The bowl was too small for you to mix all the vermicelli and veggie and meat. And about 40% of my bowl is bean spouts. I'm like wtheck ==' My bf had #3, Pho with well done sliced beef. I think PhoEver in Vista is way better thou. The only dish I recommend is Banh Xeo (fried savory pancake with shrimp and pork). Kinda oily but yea the best dish of the night so far. I don't recommend you to try any of the desserts thou, way too heavy and sweet and not even taste like what Vietnamese desserts should be. 2* for service To be fair, only the old lady pissed me off, other staffs were polite and friendly. As soon as we sat down (there were 4 of us, my 2 friends, my bf and me) and began to order, the old lady came and kept asking "you guys want seperated checks or 1 check". It was kinda awkward because we haven't even eaten anything and our asses just touched the chair like 5 seconds ago. Ok so we told her 3 separated checks, each for my 2 friend and 1 check for my bf and me. Idk if she was still sleepy or not very good at math but she kept asking if I was sure that I wanted 1 check for my bf and me. Furthermore, when we order dessert, we all wanna get the D9 (I think) Suong Sa Hot Luu (dessert which has coconut, jelly, red beans and water chestnut) but she kept saying "you want red beans or no red beans". I said "red beans sound good", then she said "so you want the D8, Che Rainbow" (note that the D8 Che Rainbow doesn't have water chestnut). I said "no we want the D9" then she said "oh we are out of 3ater chestnut. But D8 and D9 are the same, just that D8 has red beans and D9 has no red beans". So BECAUSE the restaurant didn't have enough ingredients to make the D9, she still wanted me to order D8 instead without telling me in the first place that "oh we don't have D9 today". Why the heck did she told me that those 2 are almost similar? Because they are freaking not :| Here's the link for your information abt the differences. D8 Che Rainbow http://runawayrice.com/desserts/three-colors-dessert-che-ba-mau/ https://www.google.com/search?q=che+suong+sa+hat+luu&client=ms-android-samsung&prmd=inv&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj4uou2u57OAhVH3GMKHUZ-CCAQ_AUIBygB&biw=360&bih=559#tbm=isch&q=che+3+mau D9 Che Suong Sa Hat Luu http://vietspices.blogspot.com/2011/07/che-suong-sa-hat-luu-agar-agar-with.html?m=1 https://www.google.com/search?q=che+suong+sa+hat+luu&client=ms-android-samsung&prmd=inv&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj4uou2u57OAhVH3GMKHUZ-CCAQ_AUIBygB&biw=360&bih=559 I don't think we will ever come back to this restaurant again. I don't like pushy waiters who tried to make me order what she wants instead of what I want. One more thing, last time my host family took my friend (Vietnamese, from North of Vietnam) to this place bc my friend misses Viet food. My host mom was so excited because she always wanted to try Viet food with a Vietnamese so she could ask questions abt the food the culture and etc. So she told the waiter (an old guy, i assume he was also the owner) that "oh this is Katie she is from the North of Vietnam" and then that guy gave my friend an 'attitude' (yea in Vietnam some ppl from the South and some ppl from the North don't like each other, for some stupid political reasons shit I'm not sure). My host mom felt so bad for my friend, and that was the first also last time they ate there. So yea, the old employees at this restaurant are pretty rude. Food is not that good to be worth coming back for. Not a very good experience. I was embarrassed by the old lady's service because I took my Indian and Mexican friends there for a 'Viet appreciation day' and was hoping for good food and friendly service but nah. Overall we all were not impressed and kinda disappointed. PhoEver here I come! read more

This place is one of my favorites, good food and the prices are fair and they are always quick and friendly. Go you won't be disappointed. They are vegan friendly as well. read more

Having only been to The Wok Inn I don't have much to go on. But, I was pleasantly surprised by this place. Their Pho Tom is fresh, light, aromatic, and flavorful. The number of shrimp with each order is just right. I do wish they gave more noodles, but I'm just a noodle fanatic. My boyfriend ordered the Chicken Fried Rice (I shook my head when he ordered) and it was actually not bad. Most Chinese I am used to being from the Midwest, this was light, not too oily or salty, and my boyfriend inhaled it in no time. The only complaint he had was they stiffed us on the chicken a little bit. Overall the meal was some of the better meals we have had since moving here. Considering the location I wasn't expecting much. The outside looked okay, but, once you walk in and it's clean, open and very nicely decorated. We ordered to go and took a seat. The gentleman working at the time brought my boyfriend and I some water, and before we knew it our order was done in about 15 minutes, which how fast it was done it traveled back home really well and the quality was impressive. read more

HORRIBLE SERVICE. The waiter kept raising his voice while we were using inside voices to talk to him. They would put the plates down aggressively. read more

We have ordered take-out from here multiple times since the COVID crisis began and will totally continue to do so. I couldn't disagree with Brandon G's comment more actually. The owner and person that works the front of the house is so incredibly kind, helpful, and funny. Perhaps she was running back to the kitchen because they are understaffed? Perhaps she had to deal with something outside? Who knows but this is a very difficult time. He also mentions a box of veggies. That's done on purpose so they don't continue to cook the actual noodles/meat or get soggy in the broth. Now, let's get to why I would rate this 5 stars? The price, overall quality, and service. North County is home to many pho restaurants but few are this great of a value. Their sandwiches are awesome, fresh springs rolls are tasty (although I suspect they may have less shrimp in them than they did before when they were constantly packed), and the pho is delicious. Tastes just like you would have at a place up in Westminster. read more

Pho was yummy (it was my second time trying Pho at this restaurant). This time I loved it! Not sure what was different about the broth but it was good! I also enjoyed a very quick service! The restaurant is very clean and I felt welcomed. Thank You!! read more

Pho Oceanside - Vietnamese Near Me - Oceanside, California

Love this place. The pho is amazing, egg rolls are great, and even the entree dishes like lo mein are great too. Service is fantastic too! The only reason I'm taking 1 star off is that the parking lot kinda sucks, which isn't their fault, but also the last time I was there, the women's bathroom was not that clean. It doesn't deter us from going there though, the food really is great! read more

Appetizer combo was very good. Good sized pho bowl. And they have beer which makes it a great lunch. Service was good but they didn't come back to check on us. read more

Full disclosure- I don't think I've ever had pho anywhere else. But honestly I don't think I need to because this place always does a great job. I work down the street and sometimes I eat in and sometimes I get it to go. I always get the veggie pho with beef broth. When you get it to go its kind of a build your own deal with the broth veggies and whatnot all separate. Always a great rainy day meal :) read more

*****EAT HERE******This is a weekly regular dinner stop for us! We love how quick they make take out. The food is always fresh and hot. Staff is nice and accommodating. read more

Great place, quick service, big portions. Broth is good and the noodles are on the al dente side. Will come back next time I'm in the area

This place is Pho-TASTIC (Sorry -- I just couldn't help myself!) Truly a family run restaurant in a little strip mall in Oceanside...and totally worth the drive! They just consistently provide great Vietnamese food, and I've always had friendly and excellent service at every visit! Please know that I'm a creature of habit (and sadly become allergic to shellfish), so I don't venture far out of my comfort zone when ordering. That said, I doubt you can go wrong with anything you choose. First of all, the egg rolls are to die for! There are 6 wonderfully crispy little rolls of goodness with pork, carrots, onion, taro, and glass noodles. You have to roll them in the lettuce leaf that comes with it, and dip into the sauce...and WOW! You have a little bit of heaven in your mouth. They are so very good, that I will not share an order with my husband! He has to get his own =P! I typically order the Chicken Pho & the rare beef pho....but we've ordered the vermicelli with pork and the meatballs....and these dishes were great, too. Best of all, these dishes are pretty inexpensive....which makes ordering out far more affordable for my family of 4. I think this little restaurant just checks off so many great areas for me: Great Food? CHECK! Friendly Service? CHECK! Affordable? CHECK, CHECK! Check them out and support a local restaurant that is doing things right. It is a Win/Win in my book. read more

Omg owner change. All msg left so thirsty, horrible food. What happened here . Rude service kept pushing us to order. Horrible owner and experience , so different read more

Actually i like the food but the waiter's attitude is make me uncomfortable.the guy who wear green shirt with a glasses.

Just okay. If you need a pho fix and you're in Oceanside your options are limited. Nothing was bad. Nothing was outstanding.

Below average. I found the pho slightly sweet for my taste. We also ordered the vermicelli noodle bowl with pork and egg rolls. The pork was disgusting. I expected a nice piece of pork, either BBQ or grilled. Instead, it was ground pork which did not taste good at all. read more

No offense to anyone but I've never ever been a fan of pho or Vietnamese food in general, with the exception of home made spring rolls. I usually feel sick when I smell the strong scent of ingredients and broth. But this place changed the way I feel about pho. The broth doesn't taste like it has 5 cups of msg and the noodles don't taste like it's been frozen for months. Price is fair and service is good. There's a lot of seats and parking isn't too bad. Music is hip hop mixed with pop and the paintings on the wall are nice to look at. The deserts look pretty good, didn't get any but will give them a try in the future. Another bonus- they accept cards!!! This is probably the first time I've been to a pho joint that accepts cards. Only reason I took away 1 star would be that I still felt sick afterwards, not to jump to conclusions but I was fine before food here. Still going back though. That's how good it is. read more

This is a wonderful restaurant. Family run with good service, delicious food and reasonable prices. I visit this place quite often and highly recommend it! Pho can be customized. My favorite dishes are P9 for pho; V6 for vermicelli and udong if you want a heavier noodle dish read more

Pho Oceanside - P9 Pho with tendon and rare steak on the side - Vietnamese Near Me - Oceanside, California

So I am a VERY picky Pho eater (to the point I almost don't like trying new places) but me and my now Finance were out in oceanside and had to stop in. They give a gracious amount of meat in their soup and the way they package for takeout makes it perfectly portable and it's still warm and ready to eat when you get back to the hotel. They have dessert (also a plus) and the customer service was amazing. I would drive down there more often if I wasn't 102 miles away! The weekend was a surprise in itself and having amazing food to keep the mood positive was awesome! Great! A+++ read more
