Pho Rex - Vietnamese Near Me - Corona, California

I was skeptical of a pho spot close to my nephew who Yelped what was close by. Pho in Corona that also has spring rolls, pho, stir fried noodles, dishes and asian-cajun fusion? I'm scared and intrigued. I'm happy to report back I will admit I jumped to conclusions. The vermicelli was delicious and we ordered both grilled pork and beef; IMO beef was tastier. The portions were generous and the veggies were crisp and fresh! The fries were crispy and the beef was very tender. This would be a great dish to share because of the mountain of fries! The seafood by the pound sparked my interest because I'm a fan of Boiling Crab. I got the cajun house special sauce medium. You can also pick garlic butter or lemon pepper for your sauce option. It came out super saucy and thick..good but not comparable to BC. This had more of an Asian stir fry sauce feel. The staff were very attentive and came frequently enough to check on the table for water, etc. I appreciated the gloves for my shrimp since it was so saucy. The restaurant was half full, mild white noise...you could still hear each other. Solid 4 stars. Thumbs up from us! $13.50 Vermicelli / bun with 1 meat $11.49 Beef garlic butter fries $15.99/lb whole shrimp $8 Banh mi read more

This restaurant is dishonest in its business practices. In my bill, they added an item that I didn't order. Because I trusted them, I didn't check the bill. But when I got home and checked again, I found that to be true. Everyone who eats here should check bill carefully. Dishonest business practices will lead to losing customers. Never return! read more

We had a great experience here! We tried the Pho, Pad Thai, and cream cheese wontons everything was fresh and really tasty. The Pho had a nice, flavorful broth, the Pad Thai was well-seasoned, and the wontons were crispy and creamy, just how we like them. Also love how they kept spoons chopsticks and condiments on the table for easy access! The service was friendly and efficient. Our food came out quickly, and the staff checked in just enough without hovering. The atmosphere was clean, casual, and comfortable a great place to enjoy a relaxed meal. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to and forsure a new favorite!!! read more

Imagine a cold day or feeling under the weather and a warm and inviting place like Pho Rex exists. Tucked away in the plaza where Taco Bell and Superior is. I'm very basic when it comes to pho and only prefer chicken. Their chicken pho was so good and had lots of flavor. The hubby had the shrimp and pork loin pho with chicken broth he wished it had more shrimp though. The potstickers and egg rolls were really good too. Highly recommend this cute little place for good pho read more

Pho Rex - Vietnamese Near Me - Corona, California

So, I'll try to focus on the food here because all the other stuff is...stuff. I got a beef pho and a iced tea (not thai but just regular iced tea). I went here for lunch. The food came fast (as usual for pho) like 3 minutes fast. The iced tea tasted weird, like floral but not good floral. I guess I'm just American and expect cheap Lipton or something like that, but I can say it wasn't that great. The pho itself was a small serving. I had it for lunch so a smaller portion was appreciated, but if I was coming here for dinner I would get the larger size. It tasted ok. Not bad, not great, just good. The sriracha seemed watered down, not sure how else to explain it (yeah, I'm being nit picky). Other than that it was ok overall. read more

Very good food! Typically my family orders from this place to take home Pho. I've never been a fan of taking it home since I know it would taste much better eaten there. Me and my boyfriend finally decided to for brunch and it was so empty inside. I have not had Filet Mignon Pho this good and the Egg Rolls were so so good!!!!! We wish we got more of those. Spring rolls were good too, I just preferred the Egg Rolls. Service not so great. When we walked in a guy pointed to a table and gave us menus, he then came back without saying a word to take our order. Super awkward and just not that friendly but the food definitely made up for it. Definitely plan to come in more often. read more

Great local spot that i've been waiting to try for a while. Flavors hit most of the marks I was looking for, and the prices were very reasonable. I'd consider this my best nearby chain pho. Food (8/10) Ordered the #10 steak and fatty brisket. Veggies were fresh/crispy, meat portion was pretty great (big pieces of brisket) and the price was decent ($13ish large) the broth had good taste, not extremely sweet like most california pho, lacked a bit on "aromatics" but did have a good beef flavor. My partner also tried the bun bo hue after being hesitant as 1. most places in the IE don't offer it 2. it's usually not good if it's not from a dedicated restaurant for that specific soup, but we were surprised as it was actually alright. just was missing some traditional aspects, but was good for the craving for a nearby place. Service (8/10) Only 2 people working this small restaurant on a Sunday night but the service wasn't lackluster. Orders taken quickly, food delivered fast and our waters were never empty. Mostly average expectations met. Ambiance (7/10) Pretty small restaurant in a busy plaza, not the best parking right out front but lots of parking around regardless. Pretty in line with most viet restaurants in terms of decor/design but was clean, comfortable and had lots of essentials on the table ready for us. read more

The food was absolutely delicious! Everything was very fresh. Services was quick and very friendly.

Came here for lunch on a Friday afternoon 1.12.24 Took my bro cousin out for his Birthday. Ho's request was Pho. We both ordered the 1. House Special Beef Noodle Soup in small $ 12.25 The broth was perfect. Especially during soup season. It hit the spot. There were a lot of proteins in the small bowl and the size was good for the small we ordered. Service was good and we got our pho order within a timely manner. Pretty fast. Foot traffic was good. Really big and spacious pho restaurant with a lot of tables/booth. Located a few doors next to Don Diablo Ceviche Bar in the same plaza as Superior Super Market Lots of parking available. read more

Working in Corona, I feel very limited to good Asian food. The closest to satisfy my Asian food craving during lunch is Pho Rex! The staff is always friendly and attentive. I've only ate here once with my co-worker and we both enjoyed our entrees. On most days I order take out. My go to entrees from their menu is egg rolls, grilled chicken ban mi and fried rice. Portions are relatively large. I've noticed that they do get pretty busy during lunch so I always called ahead. Wait time has been between 10-20 minutes. One thing I did notice, when the staff are talking to each other, they always seem genuinely happy to be working together and I always find that as a good sign! Overall, it's worth checking out if you are craving Asian when you are in corona! read more

Pho Xpress is a local family owned pho spot that's in a decently sized shopping center. There's plenty of parking and the area is well lit. Menu items are extensive and well made. The food is pretty good, especially for the area. In corona there are not many viet/pho spots so this is the best bet. The broth is a bit more salted than I like but it's still delicious. I really enjoy the portion sizes and the amount of meat/noodles you get. Ambiance is very casual. Service is quick and personable. Perfect for dinner especially if you want something aromatic and peaceful. read more

This restaurant was tucked in the corner right next to an entrance into a shopping plaza . I was informed it was recently changed under new ownership.

Food is always hot and fresh, service is friendly and kind, always well-mannered, the place is cozy and peaceful. I would often come here to have a warm meal on a hard day to treat myself to some Pad See Yew and I have convinced so many people in my life to check them out. I've been to many places to eat Vietnamese food and my family owns a shop in Fontana, but I love this spot just as much! I'm glad I have reliable food options that are better than any other food chain in any area. People complaining about prices should go ahead and stick to their Taco Bell's and Jack in the Boxes. This is REAL food. read more

My mom was visiting & mentioned that she saw this place near by so we went here for lunch today. Its in the plaza where Superior is but on the end, near tacos y mas. We walked in & were greeted right away. Plenty of tables inside & only 1 table was occupied. We sat at the end booth & look at the menu. Its a pretty large menu and some of the items were intriguing but we both decided to get pho. We got the Pho Tai Nam (my usual go to at any pho place) I checked in on yelp & saw that they had a freebie of a soda & eggroll but when I asked the guy about it, he said it expired last week. Our food came out rather quick and it wasn't too bad. I wouldn't say its the best or close to the best but if i'm ever in a deep craving for pho, i'd definitely come back. I do want to check out some of the other items on the menu. My mom also got a bo kho to-go for my husband. Smells good & looks good. read more

Matthew, We do not need a whole jar of the Chili sauce, we wanted to buy 2 more cups. Why if cost is so high do you allow dine in Customers an unlimited quantity? You lost a very good customer over a 5 cent cost read more

PSA! Waste of money! How this place gets 4-stars is beyond me. Poor food quality, taste, and shrinkflation to the max! Inflation is making things tough, I get it. My family has been eating out a lot less than we used to. So once in a while when I have a little extra money, I would treat my family to some take-out. I may have to pay a little more, but for a rare treat, it's fine... so long as I get quality. But you won't get that here. We ordered House Special Fried Rice, what looked super delicious in the photo turned out to be worse than Panda Express. Pictures showed sausages, but our order? No sausage. Then we got BBQ Ribs Rice Plate, and the beef was tougher than Slim Jim. Grill Pork Paste Spring Rolls looked great, but when you bit into it, the meat was thinner than the Bologna my grandma used to put in her sandwiches. Not even vermicelli noodles as filler, just a wad of lettuce! Just appalling! I wasted $100 on food and was less satisfied than going to Taco Bell, should have stayed home and made Top Ramen. Everyone, please save a little more money for gas, then drive to Westminster, Rowland Heights, or even Chino to get way better Vietnamese food than this place. Don't get ripped off. Sorry, not sorry. read more

Pho Rex - Shaken Beef dish! - Vietnamese Near Me - Corona, California

Previously "Pho Xpress", now changed to "Pho Rex". Same place under new management. New menu items added.

Food is always great this WAS my favorite pho place. I place an order over the phone for pick up when I got there I was greeted by the guy who is always at the register not sure if he's a manager but he is usually the one to take the orders. He proceeds to be very rude and say there was no order under that name, I then tried to explain we called in a few minutes ago but he kept talking over me and claiming I called the wrong place. He then called the other restaurant spoke in his native language and I presume he asked if they had gotten my order, when they presumably responded that they didn't he made a face and walked away. Then the female worker who I had spoken to over the phone to place the order came out and did not own up to her mistake. Mind you the restaurant was full with people dining in and the guy was speaking so loud and rudely everyone could hear. This is not a way a restaurant should be ran there was no need to be RUDE and YELL when he could have just said I'm sorry about that can I take your order now INSTEAD he did everything possible to make me look a fool in front of everyone there. Worst service ever! read more

Update. They're under new management and staff. This is the 3rd time the female employee messes up my order and ignores me when I tried to fix it. I asked for brisk iced tea, she brought me house tea. I asked for flank and tendon regular, my husband even pointed out the pictures, and she brought me a large w idk what kind of meat. I told her I wanted regular w flank n tendon and she just smiled and walked away. My husband asked for a to go cup for my drink and she gave me a pho container. Did not enjoy any of my meal and I won't be going back even though we used to go at least 2-3x a month. read more

Tried pho around the United States and have come to find that this is the best pho I've had in a long time. Amazing that they have chicken pho on the menu, which is often hard to find.
