I'm half Vietnamese so I grew up eating home made pho which makes me a bit picky when going out and having it. With that being said, I was super impressed with Pho Saigon Pasteur! Not only that, but my Vietnamese grandma also approved, so that really says a lot. I got the filet mignon pho here. I highly recommend ordering this! The meat itself is so tender and I love the broth. Service here is friendly! My grandma is in a wheelchair and they were very accommodating of that, which we appreciated. The ambiance here is pretty casual. I heard that there could be a wait here, but when I came, I was seated immediately. read more

Just ok. Portion is small and pho flavor is lacking. For their dac biet special, you get 2 thin slices of meat for each one and 1 beef ball - super frugal. Their spring rolls is also just ok, nothing special. read more

I don't know why I haven't reviewed Pho Saigon Pasteur in Alhambra yet because this is one of my favorite spots to get pho in the SGV (mostly get it to go). The broth is really good, not too oily or overly sweet, and they give you a decent amount of meat. One thing I really like is that they'll leave the noodles uncooked if you ask, so they don't get all soggy by the time you prepare it at home. I usually order the pho dac biet to go, and it always hits the spot. I've eaten here plenty of times too, and the quality is just as good dining in. That said, I usually just call ahead, pick up my order, and enjoy it at home. It's quick, convenient, and consistently good. I'd definitely keep coming back! read more

So bummed I've to update my previous record to one that isn't as great. It's been a few years since I last visited so I was expecting it to be as amazing as it was when I last went but unfortunately, it was quite disappointing. It's open daily 10am-9pm Parking is ok since they have a parking structure and street parking Service was ok and could have been better if they were more attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside was pretty small but they offer inside and outside seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Menu had a good variety of dishes and prices were reasonably priced. Got the Special Beef Combo Noodle ($14.50) and it consisted of eye round steak, well done flank, brisket, tendon, tripe, and beef ball. The broth tasted very light and not too greasy or salty so that was enjoyable. The quality of the meat was very dry and wasn't tender so that was very disappointing. The portion of meat and noodles given wasn't plentiful so that was a bummer. The basil, bean sprouts, and lemon were decent and so were the complimentary sauces. Overall, I wasn't too impressed with the pho and even though it was reasonably priced, it didn't seem to be worth the price since the pho tasted very underwhelming. read more

When you walk in, you are greeted right away and brought to a table. Drink orders taken soon. If you order pho, it comes out pretty quick. The pho is really good here. Definitely come here GP your fix. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is very clean and nicely set up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The meats are really good and well cooked. I ordered the rare beef, flank, and brisket. Again, pho is of the best here, come here, for real! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant is chill and functional![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You are seated by a hostess and allowed to browse menu options. Service was quick and prompt, they brought out drinks and sides quickly. I got the Pho and Ribeye soup which was absolutely delicious. It is a Shabu style pho so they bring the meat not cooked. The meat looked bright red and of high quality. They bring a hot plate filled with broth to heat your meat. It was delicious, the meat was tender and not too chewy. The broth was filling and delicious. I didn't even have to add condiment (chili, soy sauce ETC). Price is definitely reasonable and I would definitely come here again. read more

Card has a 3.55% transaction fee. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Decent pho, interior is pretty modern and great spot to catch up with friends over dinner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beware floors are extremely slippery, they seemed to be covered in some sort of grease.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We visited on a Tuesday night, restaurant was semi full but not too busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Don't expect service unless you flag down a server for something. Pho Dac Biet -broth is solid, no complaints. Loved that flank steak slices came out slightly raw as it should be, this helps it from being overdone. Pho Filet Mignon -beef was quite tender. Nem Nuong Cuon (grilled pork spring roll)- pork was well seasoned and it was juicy. Flavorful yet refreshing. Nha Trang Sauce was good as well. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food, big portions, affordable prices, spacious with indoor & outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They don't take reservations, we waited 30min Sunday at 12:15p, I recommend going earlier on weekends. We all enjoyed our food: pho filet mignon (comes with a plate of bean sprouts, basil & lime), beef ribs pho (beef ribs come in a separate bowl because they're so big), charbroiled pork with vermicelli (flavorful with generous portions of meat), beef stew (comes with bread to dip instead of rice). In the past I've also ordered the oxtail pho (generous portions of meat that comes in a separate bowl). We enjoyed our drinks: strawberry hibiscus iced tea & iced lemon tea (both sweetened). [[HIGHLIGHT]]I highly recommend this pho place, good quality food & clean space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My go to spot in Alhambra for pho is Pho Saigon Pasteur. They have a clean and healthy tasting broth and there is usually no wait whenever I go. Service is fast and I am in and out within 30 minutes. My go to ordered it the pho dac biet which has an assortment of meats. Pho dac biet has flank, brisket, beef ball, tendon and tripe. The soup is clear and not very oily. It has full of beef flavor and other aromatics. The noodles are cooked perfectly and the meat is tender while the tendon and tripe is soft and crunchy. The bowl is full of flavor that you don't need any hoisin or siracha to add any flavor. The vermicelli with grilled pork sausage and egg roll is my other go to order. The nem nuong is sweet and flavorful. It has a nice char and the meat is flattened. The egg rolls are filled with meat and super crispy. The fish sauce is not too sweet and full of umami flavors. Each noodle dish is about $15 so it is very affordable as it comes in a big bowl. Parking is residential or they have a lot in the back. read more

I was craving pho and it did not disappoint! The pho broth is very clean, balanced, and tasted great. It was served super hot and every meat was cooked perfectly - I did the custom with brisket, tendon, and flank. Meat quality was really good and they don't skimp. Service was quick and efficient and I enjoyed talking to the guys at the register. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We parked on the street and it was very easy.

Heard that they are pretty good so stopped by to try. I was walking around downtown Alhambra so parked a bit far. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They are pretty nice with some outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had lunch during the weekend. They were a bit busy. The pho took longer than expected to come. So I munched on the fresh mung bean and ate a bunch of it even before the pho arrived. They probably were too busy and forgot I ordered the extra onion. I ordered a diet biet pho and they noticed that they forgot the meatball and gave it to me in a separate bowl with soup. The pho was good. I would like additional noodles tho so ordered more on the side. The extra noodles also came with soup. I saw that they would charge extra for getting additional soup. It is a good option around north Alhambra for Pho. read more

Came here for dinner. We got Pho Dac Biet and the create your own pho option where we chose 3 types of meat. The soup was hot and flavorful. Good portion of pho noodles. The meats were tender, juicy, and fresh. We also ordered the eggrolls which normally only come with 1 leaf of lettuce but we asked for a few more so that we could each wrap our eggrolls. The eggrolls were crispy and the meat filling was good. But only comes with 4 pieces. Iced water tasted great, like good quality filtered water. Great service.

We often frequent the location in Rosemead but had stopped going since the service was a bit off. We decided to give the Alhambra location a try. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We walked in we felt like being in a middle of a swamp. They had no air conditioning and just fans blowing hot air[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I was one of hottest days of the week. I understand that it might have been bad luck to have the air conditioning broken but they were unapologetic and were not attentive. We left without eating since we were left standing in the heat without even being seated. read more

Mostly get pho as hangover cure, but heard good things about this place. The broth is close to the ideal and they are generous with the meat/tripe portions. They have a little outdoor area which is nice to people watch as it's the most lively in Alhambra lol. Service is fast as well. A bit annoying that this place is one of those cash-discount restaurants, but I guess some might like having that option. Most importantly they have chili paste and not just Sriracha which is too sweet for me when it comes to pho. Will be back. read more

Currently my favorite pho in LA! Put my name down and waited about 15min to get a table. If willing to sit outside you can get seated immediately. I ordered the pho with beef ribs. They give you three large beef ribs all for about $14. The broth is pure and filled with flavor. Beef ribs were tender and juicy. Got to put sriracha in your broth to add that kick. Nice, clean restaurant with good service. Great pho in Alhambra! read more

We ordered take out from here. We ordered the special combination beef pho. It came with the typical beef, bean sprouts, basil and lime. The broth was flavorful. They were very busy that day. It took longer than usual to get our food. But the staff were friendly and helpful. The interior is not very big. Seating is limited. There is a small outdoor seating area with five tables. There is parking in the back of the restaurant, which is convenient. My reservation about this restaurant is that they have a health score of "C". I hope they can boost that score up. read more

This is one of my favorite pho spots! Food: Whenever I come, I order the pho & ribeye. It comes out "Shabu" style and I love it! It's pretty fun to cook your beef slices on a mini pot. The soup tastes so flavorful afterwards. The broth is hot and delicious. The noodles are cooked perfectly. If I'm not eating pho in Orange County, I am here! Service: Reliable and quick service typically! No complaints here. Parking: There's street parking but there's also a free parking lot in the back of the restaurant. Overall: 5/5; This is a staple for me! I tend to come back here every so often whenever I have a craving for pho. It's not super big or decorated per say, but it gets the job done in providing you with a nicely cooked bowl of pho. read more

I liked the decor. Lets start there. I was only able to take one picture of the back but I loved the details of the little plants they had. They look cute cause the walls are wooden. I give the place's decor a 7/10. Now, the SERVICE? I'm sorry but this part has to be improved. You CANNOT run a business with just 2 waiters on a SATURDAY LUNCH RUSH in a restaurant where you have more than 12 tables and 8 different parties waiting outside. U cant. Something is going to fail, if it hasnt already. We waited 35 minutes for a table, which, I was expecting, bit after we were seated, we waited another 25 minutes to even get our orders taken. On this part I give them 2/10. The food was good. I have to admit that what we ordered was pretty good (some noodles and a beef pho). But I also ordeed a pho to go, and instead of separating the RAW MEAT into a smaller container, they just DUMPED the RAW MEAT into the noodles, which obviously got coated with blood and when I opened the container almost threw up. Im not being dramatic. It looked HORRIBLE and so disgusting I had to toss this. I wasted $18+ on a soup I didnt even try. That specific part, I wont even rate it was that bad, but the food we consumed at the restaurant was 8/10. Ohhh and before I forget, we spent 20 minutes WAITING just to get a check and another 15 to pay. Needless to say, until you guys resolve these issues, I dont think I could come back, even if I really liked the hotpot I ordered. read more

Been here twice. I like the food here. It's no-frills Vietnamese...they have rice plates as well as pho. Last time, I got the seafood pho and it was comforting and really hit the spot. Service is pretty fast. Nothing personal or memorable but they'll get you in/out especially if you're in a time crunch. Prices are fair, I feel the pho portion size is perfect. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Be careful of the slippery floor/tile in the main dining room![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Pho Saigon Pasteur in Alhambra is such a gem. The pho broth was deeply flavorful and aromatic with that rich, slow simmered depth you look for in a truly good bowl. The noodles had the perfect texture, the meats were tender, and the fresh herbs brought everything together beautifully. The portions were generous and everything came out hot and quickly. The atmosphere felt casual and authentic, making it the kind of spot you can return to again and again. If you are looking for quality pho in Alhambra, this place absolutely delivers. Will definitely be back. read more

Great tasting Viet food at reasonable prices in a casual setting! Each dish is around $14-$18, with generous portions that are enough to make you full. My friend and I got the beef rib pho and the beef combination pho with a side of beef ribs. We wanted the oxtail but they were still cooking it when we went. Beef rib pho had a rich savory soup that was surprisingly not cloudy or oily. They gave us whole bone-in beef ribs which were delicious with a little bit of hoisin on it. We got seated pretty quickly, but it was still very busy on a Saturday afternoon. Had a great experience eating here and would definitely come again if I'm craving pho! Some suggestions I have for the restaurant is to increase wait staff (I had to grab my own to-go containers and check out by walking to the counter), improve cleanliness (a few flies flying around), and let the beef ribs tenderize a bit more. read more

I ordered the oxtail pho and it was delicious. Great flavor, portions and price! $15.50 for most of the pho options. Tried the bone marrow oil and it was a great addition too. The egg rolls were meh though. They were small and tasted like they were frozen. And they didn't come with any sides like lettuce, cilantro, herbs, carrots etc. read more

Decided to check out another Vietnamese restaurant in the area, and there are quite a few so the competition is tough. So I would have to say the main selling point of this place is interior. It's very nice and modern and has a very nice wood home feel. It used to be a coffee shop here so it just has the same coffee shop vibe. The food here is pretty disappointing. They do have this interesting item that I saw people have which is like a hot pot kind of thing with a live fire. I ordered a vermicelli with grilled pork and for the price, the portion is way too small. After eating it, I was still hungry and I could probably eat two. The grilled pork was way too sweet. It was like sweeter than some candy. I didn't like it at all. For the price they charge, most places would give you like 3 items like 2 egg roll, shrimp paste, and grilled pork but here it's just two items and the egg roll is just one. My co-worker ordered a pho and for the price, it's considered like a large pho for most places but the size is really really small. The bowl is really tall but narrow so there really isn't much food in it. Parking for this place isn't too bad because there is a parking structure attached. There is a weird rule of head in only parking though, but I don't know how hard it's enforced. Overall, food portion is too small and the meat is too sweet. Price is too high for what it is. They also charge a fee for using a credit card regardless of how much you spend. It's not waived. The only thing that this place has going for it is just the interior design. read more

Great spot for authentic Vietnamese food! The Special Pho broth is deep and rich, and the bowl is full of many different toppings. The Chả Giò are some of the best meaty filling.

Affordable and tasty pho! I always get the pick your own pho combo, I need that tendon. Thought the last time I was here the tendon wasn't cooked long enough and the slices was hard and chewy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This restaurant is better for groups of 2-4 people, both indoor and outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They can push tables together for larger groups but it's not really made that way.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The beef ribs is a popular order here, not too expensive for massive bones that it feels like flintstone pho.

I ordered the Bo Kho for take out and could not have been more disappointed. I really wanted to like the food because of the staff and family friendly energy but the Bo Kho was so slimy and did not have much flavor. The chef took the easy way out and added a lot of corn starch to the dish which gave it that slimy texture and tasteless broth. I would definitely want to come back to try their pho but would highly recommend you to rethink the Bo Kho. read more

Hubby and I were craving pho so we came here for an early brunch. We chose to sit outside so our clothes wouldn't smell like pho for the rest of the day. Parking was easy. Lots of street parking and there's also a parking structure right next door too. Service was so so. It took a while for them to come out to give us menus and water. When we were ready to order, we couldn't catch the staff's attention so hubby ended up going inside to order. Hubby got the pho special (pho dac biet) while I got a create your own pho with 3 items. Broth tasted pretty clean yet flavorful and they definitely do not skimp on the meat. I wasn't able to finish my bowl but hubby thought the portion was perfect. read more

My foodie in crime and I came here during a weekday for lunch. Parking was good. There was a little parking structure pretty close to the restaurant. As you come in, it wasn't too crowded. We got sat down right away. The menu is pretty extensive but had everything a Vietnamese place has. Plus more! This place gave me Vietnamese and French vibes. I started off with the grilled pork spring roll while my friend got the egg rolls. They give you 3 options for the app sauce: peanut (which we both got), the fish sauce and their house made sauce. There was an awesome crunch in the spring roll. So good! I then got the filet Mignon pho with 2 side of tendon. I can't help it! I love me some tendons lol. Let me tell you they don't skimp at all with the meat. Omg. My friend got the ribe eye pho which came out in a hot pot bowl and she ordered a side of more meat. Needless to say, it was a lot of food!! A tip: if you pay with cash you do get a discount. read more

My very picky mom approves of Pho Pasteur beef pho bowl. She is generally not a fan of beef dishes, beef broth, etc. but absolutely loves the beef pho here.

This is our to-go place for pho. My husband's family use to own a Vietnamese restaurant, and he likes this place best. That means alot!

Good for a date, but not necessarily romantic. read more

The food was really not that good, the combination pho didn't have alot of flavor to the broth, the broken rice dish had a very small portion of pork chop, and the beef stew with noodles was just ok. The spring rolls were just ok too, the portion of pork inside seems kinda small . Service could have been better too, after we got our food we never had anyone check in on us to refill our water, maybe they were short staffed but then they prob need more ppl on a not very busy day. Also wasn't a fan of how we're doing a 3% credit card charge fee in 2026, esp at a sit down restaurant where pricing is standard with other restaurants that don't charge a fee. read more
