99. Pad Thai
Jocelyn L.

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!!!

Located in the heart of Corona, Pho Rex offers an array of traditional Vietnamese dishes along with other fusion Asian dishes for those trying Vietnamese cuisine for the first time!

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

Pho is so good but this plate I decide to try is also delicious full of flavor definitely a must have. Service is good and fast. Quitting little spot.

This plate was seriously so delicious. The service was very good and the food came out very fast too. It's a small restaurant but so delicious. I will continue coming back.

Filet Mignon Pho
Arianna A.

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.

10. Slices of Steak & Fatty Brisket Soup
Jacob B.

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.

The food here is really great. I was impressed by how fresh and clean the garnish was. Good price point, one of the better pho in Corona.

The different bowl sizes 1.12.24

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.

Heber C.

I love the original location and this one too. The food is of course excellent, always. The servers are awesome, you can tell theyre really happy and proud to share their flavors. The whole thing has a very sweet warm and welcoming vibe. Totally recommend.

Elba G.

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.

Two in our party of 6 ordered this, one hot, one cold. Basil pesto, done right, is a fave of mine, and this one was very fresh and flavorful. Loved the roll, requested it be toasted and add a slather of mayo as well. The shredded chicken filling turned out juicy, not dry. The two of us were very impressed. The others had their own ideas. A Philly cheese steak, an Italian classic, a Beef and mushroom, a Chicken Parmesan. Minor grumbling over the two beef sandwiches, the Philly did not have enough cheese (I agreed), the Beef & Mushroom was a bit short on mushrooms. I tasted most of them and as for the Chicken Parm, I simply did not care for the marinara. Bottom line, I definitely will return for anything with pesto. Prices are very reasonable. We each chose the 8" size (medium). They were quite filling, with most of our party bringing one half home. The fries were amazing, a big hit as well. Both kinds, regular shoestring style and thicker beer battered with some skin, were seasoned nicely and deliciously fresh. If I had to choose, the beer batter style was the better. Carbonated drinks are serve-yourself, so yes, refills. There are a respectable number of tables and booths for seating inside, but none outside. After all these years, glad I tried them. We shall return!

After over a year, I finally came back to this location. I didn't want anything except the Pork…read moreBelly Banh Mi sandwich. Once again, I stand by claim that this is the most delicious sandwich there is! Specifically at this location, they have it down right. I tried this sandwich at a different Carrot and Daikon and it just didn't hit the way it does at this Corona location. Maybe I'm crazy, but if you have never tried this spot, try the Pork Belly here. The pork belly crunch followed by the fat that melts in your mouth, complimented with a slightly sweet and mostly savory sauce. Of course the carrot, Daikon, jalapeno and cilantro with the fresh banh mi make this top notch!! Wowza!

Full disclosure: I'm always suspicious of places that straddle the "fusion" food fence. I find…read more"fusion" usually translates to smothering something in an off-the-shelf international aisle sauce or wrapping it in a tortilla. Now, let me be clear, this restaurant does NOT mention the term fusion - at all. However, their menu whispers, "Hey there..." Crispy pork belly, lomo saltado, spam and egg. And, oh, brothers and sisters, they have gotten as close to paying the proper homage to all fusion cultures as I've seen. SPAM AND EGG: I'm chubby so SPAM is like my kryptonite. I had to have it. This sandwich threw me for a look. I'm used to other places overcooking the spam. NOT so at C&D. The spam was juicy. The fried egg was fluffy. The spicy sauce was genuinly spicy. I loved it so much that I've had it twice in three days. CRISPY PORK: I love the Chinese/Filipino Crispy Pork. The pork was nice and juicy. The skin was crunchy. Really great flavor. The only drawback was my own fault...of eating it cold because I had to eat the Spam and Egg sandwich first. LOMO SALTADO: I've got this sandwich sitting on my counter calling to me, in the queue while I finish my 2nd Spam and Egg Sandwich. I will come back to this review later today to fill in this blank. UPDATE: It was good! The meat was soft and juicy. Not quite the lomo saltado meat or flavor I'm used to or would expect, so the sandwich's name is a little misleading, but the flavor is good nonetheless. VIETNAMESE COFFEE (Large): I liked it. Yep. Not as overly sweet as I'm used to at Mr. Bagguette in LA, and that's a great thing. The only drawback is that it has a caffeine KICK. I felt the caffeine flowing through my veins 10 minutes after I took my first sip. Bread: In banh mi, the bread is the make-or-break. Here, the bread is not your typical medium to hard crunchy exterior and soft interior. The bread is on the softer side on the outside. It is a great change in pace for me because I haven't cut the top palette of my mouth like I usually do with harder bread. AND...that means that the sandwich doesn't lose it's character when I ate the sandwich cold later. STAFF: Very friendly! They are there to serve the customer. I've been greeted with a smile and genuine happiness. Great work C&D. You have a customer!

My friend…read moreand I wanted dessert though and crepes were right across the street from where we had brunch. It was a win! I got the strawberry shortcake crepe and she got the Dubai chocolate one. Both were amazing! The owner was very kind, patient as we tried to figure out what to order and gave us great recommendations. He did not hold back on any of the toppings! You get a very good amount of fresh strawberries. I love berries and whipped cream so much so this was perfect. I didn't want strawberry sauce so he gave me chocolate sauce. They have a really nice selection of sweet crepes and even some savory crepes. I was surprised to see specialty sandwiches and paninis on the menu as well. Pictures looked good and price point seemed fair. Based on generous serving for crepes, I think the sandwich would have a fair amount of meat. The shop is very clean (bathroom is clean too), and cute decor. The red dining tables are a great pop of color! I think a bold cafe sign would catch more attention. If I was driving then I may have gone by. The design is cute but the type of sign is more for a pop up. I'm not from the area but I'd totally go back and Definitely recommend anyone to grab a bite from here:)

However, one suggestion, it would be better if they could have separated a little cup for ice cream when to go order. Ice cream was melted quickly as we arrived home, and watery down all over the crepe. Great welcomed service and beautiful ambiance, a great verdict, I need to revisit to try the Dubai Chocolate. That's their new menu at time I was there, it was not available just yet.

We've been ordering from this one since it's the closest in the I.E. Never dined in-store, just pick-up. Our order is always ready by the time we pick-up and today it was ready 10 minutes before the projected pick-up time. They've been running these voting deals lately where you vote on your favorite sandwich between two of their signature sandwiches and I'll say, it's not only worked (it was buy one get one free of the winning sandwich), it's gotten me to try other sandwiches that I would never normally try. For years my go-to was the Menage-A-Trios and now I'm a fan of the KP Nasty sandwich. I've tried the Marshawn Lynch sandwich, also very good. This location is always clean and the employees are always pleasant and attentive.
