Bun Bo Hue
Oscar B.

This is a decent spot for pho and the chili oil they have as part of the condiments is really good. -Pho Dac Biet: Decent. The meat toppings are high quality. The broth is not bad. -Bun Bo Hue: Underwhelming. The broth needed more flavor but adding their chili oil to it did make it taste better. The beef pieces tasted okay. Having some blood cake in bun bo hue is important imo but there wasn't any in my bowl. I guess at the end of the day this is mainly a pho restaurant, so I'd focus on just getting pho here.

Amazingly, this place has been around for a few decades, I've lived in the area for a few decades, and we're finally gotten around to eating here. Dad wanted pho after the doctor's office and we decided to try this place. Friendly greeting upon entering and was seated with menus immediately. While waiting for my dad, I ordered the banh xeo to start. I went with my usual vermicelli and dad got the special combo pho. Portions are huge! It's hard to make mine wrong, but the pho was also quite delightful with so much meat. Will definitely be back.

I had the Large Pho Dac Biet which was exceptionally delicious and a very large portion. I had to try the shredded pork spring rolls, and those were equally delicious. I always have to get Vietnamese coffee or cafe sua da which helps at the end of the meal because it's a very Carrie meal but the seating is wonderful. The environment is nice. It's an open area so it is a little bit loud but everybody's having a good time talking food still delicious and they have a bathroom. I found the service to be extremely friendly and the menu is huge, I am coming back

This is my favorite place for pho. They use ribeye for their Tai. They are also very generous with the protein, you will have meat in every bite. The broth has a deep pho flavor, some people might not like this but I prefer it this was. Their vermicelli dishes are ok too.

Great Vietnamese restaurant in the Rowland Heights Area. I got the vegetarian vermicelli bowl and it was great.

I thought I'd been to most of the Pho pace in Rowland Heights but then finally stumbled onto Pho Rowland. In my opinion, they are one of the better places in Rowland Heights (like 3-4 other Pho options). Clean interior and a good selection of Vietnamese food from Pho to Com to Bun (including bun bo hue) and appetizers like nem and banh xeo. And, they will do party trays -- party on! Check out my pics.

bun rieu
Shiny C.

Pretty solid place to get Vietnamese food! I ordered the bun rieu and I personally thought the broth was a bit bland and I wish I had gotten a rice dish instead but to be fair I like when the soup is more pungent. It's great for people who are unfamiliar with that specific dish and want to try it, though! It also came with a lot of protein and the perfect amount of noodles. As for the pho, my boyfriend ordered it and he said it was really good! It was moderately busy when I went on a Sunday afternoon but we didn't have to wait for a table. The service was quick and they have a lot of options on the menu if you're feeling soupy, dry, rice, noodles, or even something else. It's located in the same plaza as a lot of other popular business (Chicha San Chen, Sun Nong Dan, etc) so it might be a bit difficult to find parking even though there are a lot of spots. Definitely worth a try!

Tofu vegetable pho - delicious!
Desiree N.

My friend and I visited this restaurant on a Monday afternoon. The restaurant is clean and spacious. There were a few groups eating when we entered, but it wasn't full so we were told to sit where we pleased. I called ahead to ask if they offer vegetable broth and was pleased to hear that they do. Thank you! I ordered the tofu vegetable pho. It came out fairly quickly. It was delicious and hit the spot. I was very full after finishing my bowl, which says a lot because I occasionally have to order extra noodles to feel full. My friend ordered the steak pho and she couldn't have been happier. This restaurant offers great pho and great portions at a good price. Shoutout to the employee who went above and beyond to recommend that I return and try another vegetarian option they have available on the menu, Banh Xeo - a Vietnamese crepe. I will definitely be doing so. All in all, I highly recommend this place. If you feel like anything is missing in your life, come by and try a bowl of pho. :)

i appreciate the amount of onions in the pho, i could cry, it's perfect Spring rolls were really delicious as per usual but the peanut sauce and fish sauce threw me off guard, it was so sweet... but best believe i still ate that thang

Bun rieu....pretty good and authentic....
Kimberly B.

My go to near work for eggrolls all day! I always order a whole tray for my company lunches or parties. Everyone loves it! Pho has gotten even better than before! Quality and service is on point for sure! They give you a number when you order by phone. Very organized. I always order my bun rieu here and also banh hoi with all the fav stuff. I love their menu it's so many options of all the popular favorites

Pho
Judy H.

This place was so good! I came here with a friend at 8pm on a Monday night so it was empty except for me. The place is well lit and extremely spacious. I ordered the egg rolls, a large combo pho(+beef balls), the banh xeo, and a side of grilled pork. Food came extremely fast. Those fried egg rolls are incredible. So crispy with the perfect amount of filling. The combo pho was huge with the noodles perfectly cooked and the beef not overcooked like a lot of places tend to do it. By the time the banh xeo came, I was pretty full even though I was splitting it with my friend. The shell was super crispy and there was a lot of bean sprouts in there which is the way I like my banh xeo. Definitely would recommend this place! Prices are super reasonable. I would definitely be back when I'm in the area!

My go to pho spot in the area. The eggrolls are so good. They aren't the typical eggroll paper, it's the fancy ones (: The pho portion is generous and fair for the price. The spring rolls are good. And the staff is friendly and attentive. They are accommodating and make you feel welcomed.

pho tai bo vien and Com Suon Nuong
Yvonne T.

Don't get me wrong, their service and ambiance was great and they were very attentive and helpful but food overall was very mediocre for vietnamese cuisine. Their serving size was huge and it definitely was fulfilling but their pho broth was very bland so it was difficult to finish it all. Their rice dish on the other hand was great, but if you're named after the pho dish I was expecting more flavor and depth to the broth and even when adding sriracha and other condiments it was still too bland for my liking. This place has great potential but I probably wouldn't go out of my way to go back and eat here.

The owner and, I believe, his son were incredibly kind and welcoming. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in what they do. The smell alone tells you the pho is going to be amazing, and it absolutely delivers. Their Vietnamese coffee was the best I've had in a while. Rich, bold, and incredibly STRONG. There is a reason this place has been around for so long. Great food, great people, and genuine hospitality that keeps customers coming back.

This is one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in Rowland Heights. This is an authentic Cantonese…read morerestaurant that serves traditional Cantonese style food. I think this restaurant is famous for their Lobsters but I never come here for that. My family is not a huge fan of Lobsters and I can't really afford that kind of Luxury. Most of the time I come here for the set meals. The second set meal has 1 soup and 3 dishes. We ordered the house special seafood soup, Clam with Basil Sauce, Sautéed Pea Sprout, and Kung Pao Chicken. With the set meal prices, each dish is less than $14. My wife likes the Peking Style Pork Chop so we got that too separately. Most restaurant charges $2-2.50 for a bowl of rice. This restaurant only charges $1 per person and gives you a giant pot of rice so you can have second or third if you are hungry. Traditional Cantonese restaurants usually have crappy service but the staffs here are very nice. They frequently change your plates and the food is served quickly. The restaurant is pretty clean. The best of all, the food quality is very good with good value. We like their Kung Pao chicken because the chicken is fried before stir fried and they made sure to use dark meat. I usually don't eat Pea Sprouts but this version is tender and garlicky. The Basil Clam meat is fat and each clam has sauce coating it. They are not cheap with the quantity of clams either. The dish is filled to the max. If you are looking for a traditional Cantonese food, this is the place. It is both affordable and tasty. Give them a shot.

Craving for a lobster dish so this was the place !!…read moreExcellent service with a smile!! Not busy on 4th of July !! For a party of 4 we had a round table with a center large revolving lazy susan !! The House Special Lobster with Garlic Noodle was prepared perfectly with so much flavor, lobster meat is so tenderly sweet bursting with rich decadent savory flavors!!! Whole Garlic clove didn't taste fresh that were prepared with the Chinese Broccoli dish!! The Pepper & Salty Pork Chops were not cooked the way I had envisioned or used to !! They were fried without a light batter to keep meat moist!!! But surely will comeback for another round of the HOUSE LOBSTER SPECIAL!!

People have compared their summer rolls to Brodard and Summer Rolls!…read more For three, we ordered banh beo, banh xeo, pork spring rolls, bun bo hue, and a grilled pork rice plate. I guess everyone was right because the pork spring rolls were AMAZING. The egg roll they use inside is HELLA crunchy. Is it better than Brodard or Summer Rolls? Very comparable!! My next favorite was their banh xeo and rice plate. The rice plate is better than most because it comes with a fried egg! As for their banh xeo, it's solid and they add sliced onions which is something I've never seen before. The bun bo hue was good too. The only letdown was the banh beo because the wrapper is too thick. Definitely get the spring rolls!

I'm extremely disappointed with my experience today, especially because this is a restaurant I…read moregenuinely enjoy and have been to multiple times. This time, I ordered through Uber Eats and got the beef rice, seafood udon soup, and pork spring rolls. In the notes, I specifically requested both the shrimp sauce and fish sauce for the spring rolls, but when my order arrived, I only received the fish sauce. I also requested basil for my soup and received no basil at all. What makes this even more frustrating is that this isn't the first time my requests have been ignored. Whenever I order the spring rolls, I usually request no cucumber, yet they still frequently come with cucumber. I understand mistakes happen, but when it keeps happening over and over again, it starts to feel like nobody is actually reading or paying attention to the order instructions. Another thing that really surprised me was how one of the egg rolls was packaged. They literally put the egg roll loose inside the Uber Eats paper bag without wrapping it or putting it in any type of container. I honestly found that extremely unprofessional and concerning from a cleanliness standpoint. Food should not just be thrown loose into the same paper bag used to transport the entire order. It's especially disappointing with a delivery order because I'm not physically at the restaurant where I can simply tell someone, "Hey, you forgot my sauce," or point out that something is wrong and have it corrected. By the time the food arrives, I'm stuck with an incomplete or incorrect order. I genuinely like the food here, which is why this is so frustrating. I want to continue supporting and enjoying this restaurant, but there needs to be more care and attention when preparing customers' orders, especially when specific requests are clearly written. Between missing items, repeatedly ignoring requests, and the way the egg roll was packaged, today's order was extremely disappointing.

Friendly service, attentive, kinda small inside, and clean. Food was amazing, tasted delicious…read more Some patrons seemed like they were regulars which was cool. I'd totally come back and try other things. Not pictured are a Vietnamese coffee my bestie got, a strawberry lemonade my son got, and I got the special lychee drink (YUM)!

Very good food, but the prices here are astronomical…read more I ordered by phone because I was driving and didn't have the ability to do it online. I was shocked when I went in to pick up that my order (a grilled pork banh mi, an order of egg rolls, and an iced coffee) was freaking $32!! I didn't get an itemized receipt, so once I got back to my car, I went to their website to look up prices. 4 egg rolls are $12.50. That's $3 per egg roll! The sandwich is $11 and the coffee is $6. The kicker is that there's a combo--sandwich and coffee--for $15. They could've saved me some money, but they chose to not to in order to make a few extra bucks. Their prerogative, but in this economy, not cool to not help out. The result: a customer who's not coming back and who's posting about it to warn others. I normally don't do this because I'm aware that mom and pops are struggling. It's also possible that the menu prices on their website are out of date and they did give me the combo price, but THIRTY-TWO DOLLARS (!!) for a sandwich (great bread and tasty but sweet pork, a little underwhelming on the fillings overall), some egg rolls (with enough lettuce for each one, as well as sauce and do chua, but also a little underfilled), and a 16 oz cup of coffee with ice and condensed milk is pretty crazy. I can get the same meal nearby for at least $5 less or find other types of food that'll feed more people for the same price.
