    CAFE SUA DA -- more like HAZELNUT SUA DA (nasty)
    Trang L.

    Want so much to give them more then just 2 stars. Came here for lunch... ORDERED PHO COMBO EGG ROLLS XTRA RARE MEAT CAFE SUA DA PHO COMBO - MEATS: Briskets was perfectly cooked, Rare meat was so thinly sliced it shriveled up that it was next to nothing in the hot broth. Meatballs very hard and dry. Briskets ends soft and nicely cubed. BROTH: Beef broth was dark in color, too much Star Anise or Coriander leaving a bitter-medicine taste in your mouth from every bite. Worst of all it is way tooooo SALTY!!! EGG ROLLS - Very beefy smell, has good flavor but just not the same as the traditional Viet egg-rolls. CAFE SUA DA - $7.61 ?!?!?! Nothing about this cup of coffee tasted right, tooooo much hazelnut infuse flavoring. ITS VIETNAMESE COFFEE - for god-sake, make it simple & strong pls. Gave this place 2 STARS for presentation. My pictures looks so good until you take the first bite. I remembered it tasted so much better when I went with my SIS some years ago.

    Well Done Brisket Pho
    Chris G.

    Came here today and really enjoyed it. I ordered the well done brisket pho with the large noodles, and both the meat and broth were really tasty. The restaurant has a nice modern look, and the soft jazz playing in the background. Our server greeted us right away, and the food came out quickly. I also liked that they serve the tea in bottles you can take with you. Overall, it was a really good experience, and I would definitely come back.

    We've been wanting to try Redbo for a while and I'm happy we finally did. Upon walking in the restaurant was clean, cozy, and inviting. We ordered combination pho and Wagyu fried rice. The flavors of the pho and fried rice were perfect! Savory Wagyu fried rice with that rich Wagyu taste. And the combination pho had a lot of meat which was all very good and tender. The broth was a win too. You get a taste of all the spices that are supposed to stand out in a bowl of pho. I liked that the thin noodles were chewy and not overcooked. The fries were also really good and our boys of course loved them! Eggrolls were off the chain!! The service was outstanding. Our waiter was so kind and accommodating with our requests. It's a pretty decent sized restaurant

    This has to be one of the best bowls of Wagyu Pho I've had! The broth was crystal clear yet incredibly rich, with a deep, slow-simmered beef flavor that was comforting without being overly salty. You can tell they put a lot of time and care into making it. The Wagyu beef was the real highlight. It was beautifully marbled, incredibly tender, and practically melted in my mouth after just a few seconds in the hot broth. The quality of the meat really elevated the entire bowl and made it feel like a premium pho experience. The noodles were perfectly cooked, the fresh herbs added great aroma, and every ingredient tasted fresh. The portions were generous, and the presentation was beautiful from the moment it arrived at the table. The restaurant was clean, modern, and welcoming, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and made the dining experience even better.

    This was a cute and aesthetic restaurant. I liked the bowls they use for the pho, and they use wine glasses for your water lol. Not only is it cute, it's pretty delicious too! The broth is nice and light. The real highlight is the meat that is included in your soup. All of the meat was sooo soft and delicious. The service was nothing special, just quick and casual. Thank you! I'll be back!

    Flaming Wagyu
    Grace N.

    Long overdue review for me here! Been here a few times and it was wonderful! It is one of the few pho places that offers Halal style beef. I read so much about their flaming wagyu and glad we tried it, it was delish! The quality of the beef and broth here are really good, this was worth the hype! The beef stew is also great here! Portion is big. Highly recommend!

    Wagyu lovers, this spot is a MUST! From the juicy wagyu sliders to the flavorful wagyu fried rice, every bite was perfection. The cubed wagyu truffle fries were next-level delicious, and don't even get me started on the pho --rich, comforting, and packed with flavor. Our waiter went above and beyond with recommendations and made us feel so welcome. The beautiful outdoor patio created the perfect setting for a relaxing meal. Can't wait to come back!

    Combo pho
    Jason Y.

    Came by Pho RedBo in Garden Grove and was pleasantly surprised--plus points for being halal certified. 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.

    Flaming wagyu is definitely the highlight Halal-friendly wagyu cooked right in front of you, super tender and juicy The sliced rare wagyu steak is also amazing perfect when dipped into the rich broth The 24-hour bone broth is deep, comforting, and full of flavor. IG: socalhkfoodies

    The pho was pretty good, I give it a 8/10. The service was friendly as well. Good ambiance, good food, and good service.

    SHAKING BEEF, truffle fries, combo phos
    Shirley L.

    Tried Pho RedBo and honestly this spot really surprised me. Finding halal pho in OC already makes this place stand out, but the food itself was actually so good too. 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.

    I was excited to try this place because I'd heard so many good things, but overall it didn't quite live up to the hype. Food: Pho Combo (6/10): It was decent, but nothing really stood out. We got this with regular noodle. There's option for fresh or regular noodle. The bowl size looked a bit small for both the regular and large compared to other pho spots I've been to. It was basic and enjoyable, but not memorable. Pho with Rare Steak (7/10): I did like that they offer a fresh noodle option since I prefer that type in my pho. Similar to the combo pho, it was slightly salty but still decent. The rare steak was good, but overall it felt like an average bowl. It was decent, just not one of the best I've had. Wagyu Beef Stew / Bò Kho (4/10): The stew itself was okay, but the bread really brought it down. It didn't taste fresh at all--more soft and chewy in a stale way rather than crispy and warm. It came out and was not hot or crispy from the start. Service: The service was great. The staff were sweet, helpful, and attentive. Everything came out efficiently. Ambiance: Very casual and spacious Vietnamese restaurant. There's a good amount of seating, and everything seemed clean and well-kept.

    Most pho restaurants use commodity beef--you don't know where it comes from or how it was raised. But Pho REDBO is doing something completely different. They use Wagyu beef sourced through direct supplier relationships, with no growth hormones and no antibiotics. Here, sourcing isn't just a detail--it's part of the product. Their broth is simmered for 24 hours, delivering a deep, rich flavor that sets a new standard. Pair that with premium Wagyu, and you get a bowl of pho that's both elevated and intentional. What makes it even more unique is that the entire menu is halal-certified--something you rarely see at this level of quality. Clean sourcing. Wagyu beef. 24-hour bone broth. Right on Garden Grove Boulevard.

The chicken was crispy and the dipping sauce gave it that extra yummy goodness. The dish also came with a side of broth that had chicken bits in it, was nice to help digest your dish. I also loved that they gave you pickled veggies & fresh veggies. We also ordered the Loi's Fusion Saltado, upgraded the rice to garlic egg fried rice. The beef was soft and tender, the fries were nice and crispy and the fried rice was fresh. You 100% need to get the Thai Tea. A lot of place add too much cream/half and half diluting the tea flavor, they do not skimp on the actual tea in their drink. The color speaks for itself on the dark orange hue!

I'm a bit late getting around to writing this, and unfortunately, they are already closed, but I still felt like I had to share my experience. I'm not completely surprised that they closed, especially after trying their bò né. I've had this dish many times at different places around Orange County, and unfortunately, this was probably the weakest version I've come across. The first thing that stood out was the presentation. As you can see in the picture, there was this purple-colored sauce on the meat itself, which honestly did not look very appetizing. To make things worse, the sauce was cold and did not heat in time with the skillet, which really took away from the experience. The flavor itself wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't anything memorable. It was just okay, and when you factor in the cold food and the presentation, it made the whole dish disappointing. With so many places around Orange County serving bò né at a much higher level, I would probably recommend spending your money elsewhere. If you were wondering whether you missed out on some hidden gem, don't worry, you didn't. This one felt more like a piece of coal than a diamond. That being said, every restaurant has its journey, and with more time, maybe they could have found their footing. Hopefully, they can take this experience as a lesson, refine their recipes, and bring something better in their next venture. I am rooting for you Loi!

Be prepared: this place is incredibly popular, especially during peak hours. Parking can definitely be challenging because of how busy it is. The last time I visited on a Monday, the lot was completely full, and I ended up parking on the street. The restaurant is also primarily cash only, so come prepared. They open early, making it a perfect breakfast spot for an early bowl of pho. The pho broth is exactly what I want when I'm craving comfort food--clean, flavorful, and incredibly soothing. However, the star of the meal for me was the chả giò. Wow. Although they arrived after our pho, they came out at the perfect temperature. I was hesitant to take a bite right away because freshly fried food usually burns my mouth, but these were just right. Crispy, airy, savory, and absolutely delicious. Paired with their fish sauce, it was perfection. I enjoyed the egg rolls so much that next time I'm definitely ordering the egg roll vermicelli bowl. Service was friendly and prompt despite how busy it was, and it's clear the staff works hard to keep things moving. One thing I love is seeing all of the awards and accolades displayed on the walls. Phở 79 received the prestigious James Beard America's Classics Award, and it's easy to understand why after one meal here. This restaurant is truly an Orange County icon. The restaurant will soon be moving to a new location, as signs throughout the restaurant announce the upcoming move. While I'll miss the original spot, I'm excited for the new space--hopefully with more parking! Some places are worth the wait, and Phở 79 is absolutely one of them.
