The IG ads got me! I came here for dinner despite it being like 90 degrees outside. I ordered the #13 large pho and it was bomb! The meat, tendon and brisket were all super soft and tenderly cooked. Broth was good! It was beefy and had some nice shine to it. All in all, they have solid pho and know what they're doing.

Pho San Marcos is a great spot for Vietnamese food, with flavorful dishes and good service. I enjoyed the vegetarian broth with shrimp, which was a nice option, along with the house special. The food was satisfying, and the staff provided good service throughout the visit. Overall, a solid pho spot that I'd recommend if you're craving a comforting bowl of Vietnamese soup!

After learning that this place was under new ownership since we've been over a decade ago, we decided to give this place another try and it did not disappoint. Walking in, we were greeted right away and seated. Wasn't too busy for a Saturday night around 7:30pm. The decor was more modern, with a really cool city mural painted on the wall. Our server was friendly, quick and efficient. He was an older man with a good sense of humor which we loved. Our party of 3 ordered various beef pho's. We were all happy with our soups, hot, tasty, delicious with all the fixings. Definitely satisfied our pho cravings. We ordered our taro boba drinks and Vietnamese coffee to go. The taro smoothie was delicious, however the boba in it was a bit hard. The coffee was also delicious. It was a really good visit and happy to have returned. Looking forward to returning and trying more dishes on their menu.

Stopped by during a hot day. Oddly enough I ordered pho. Went with their #13 which is their special with all the fixings. Came hungry left full and dripping of sweat. I wasn't complaining though. I really enjoyed my meal. Especially the iced water with a sliver of lime. The pho, was perfect and very flavorful. I was helped by a two man team. Friendly, efficient and quick. In and out in a blast and am in a food coma as leave this review. Very calm and relaxing place. Be back soon.

had a great time eating a late lunch with the family here! i ordered a bun and was able to add tofu and veggie egg rolls. everything was fresh and well made! staff was knowledgeable and friendly, and food came out fast. the place itself was well put together and very clean. i would def come here again if im in the area!

Dining area on one side  and pick up counter. Very clean and inviting.

All of the food is made from the freshest ingredients and prepared with wonderful flavors. The service is A+ for in dining and pick up. The restaurant is very clean and has plenty of booths and tables. The staff members are quite nice, very helpful, and very expeditious in service. This is a fabulous restaurant in all respects and amazingly delicious. We keep coming back and back. Oh and the orange juice and other drinks much better than anywhere else. Plenty of parking as well. Love Pho San Marcos so much I order pick up also several times a week. The best food ever.

The food was amazing and the service was top tier! My daughter and I found this restaurant after a long day at Legoland and let me say they did not disappoint! Everything was amazing and fresh. The staff were very friendly and greeted us with nothing but smiles! My daughter is a food critic and she gave them a 10/10!! This is a must try !!

Large Pho Tai Nam ($15.95) - This was a delicious, substantial bowl of pho loaded with rare steak and flank! The broth was so comforting and flavorful, too. It's now in my top 3 North County pho spots -- check it out!

DO NOT EAT HERE. There was a COTTON SWAB in my pho. It is absolutely disgusting and completely unacceptable. I quite literally wanted to throw up. If it was in the broth, it means it's technically contaminated everyone's pho. If this is the level of hygiene at this place, imagine what else could be happening in the kitchen. What was worse was their reaction to my complaint. They kept saying they'll make me a new pho without even apologizing like that's gonna make up for it. I said I don't need it because I lost my appetite PLUS why would I want to eat ANYTHING you make. They kept insisting and I said no so they just ended up comping the pho. They barely apologized right before I left with a single "sorry". Do not eat here.

I recently dined at Chef's Pho & Grill for a weekend lunch. The restaurant is spacious and clean,…read moreand we were greeted right away. They weren't very busy for lunch, but the weather doesn't really call for pho as much! I was interested in their Banh Xeo but we also did try their Pho Dac Biet to see if we would like the pho here. Banh Xeo (3.5/5): This was great, and so refreshing with lettuce wraps and mints. The banh Xeo remained super crispy and was so yummy with the fish sauce. My complaint was that the pork was dry and the lettuce had some wilted edges, which I was wary about. Other than that the shrimp inside and batter was delicious. Pho Dac Biet (3.5/5): Clean broth and not too salty. The bowls came with brisket, tendon, meatballs, and some flank meat. Minimal veggies were offered. Overall, a little more quality and freshness in the ingredients would serve this dining experience better! My family did enjoy the food and the flavors are all there.

Parking can be tight sometimes but we usually find a spot close enough. Their bun bo nuong (beef vermacelli with eggrolls) has been especially our go-to lately during this summer heat! The beef has been super tender and the noodles and veggies with nuoc mam has been refreshing. I like that they use stainless steel cups for water cups too and they have great customer service. Everyone is on top of it and very nice

I had already placed an order for it with the young man at the counter, but then on the way back to my seat I noticed the dish that another fellow was enjoying and I commented on it and found out that it was their chicken curry. He was happy to describe it to me as he orders it often so I changed my order and I was glad I did. It was like no other curry you or I have ever experienced with such unique and unexpected flavors that somehow defy description, other than delicious. As Alex, the fellow I chatted with told me, you can't believe how great this stuff is and how much of it you get for $10!! But be aware, this dish is both rich and very light. Yeah, I don't know how either. But it is damn delicious and you will experience some Mach 1 level fullness way before you are expecting it. I highly suggest ordering a bowl and then dividing it into four cups as a side dish for you and your friends to go along with your wonderful bun thit nuong.

With a wife that loves bahn mi, a house just down the street, and an all around love of good food,…read moreI am amazed that we haven't come down to Bahn Mi San Marcos until now. Its near a couple of spots we frequent regularly, pretty much in a square of multiple shopping centers with grocery stores, Thai, Poke, Mexican, and Boba that we all come to often. And it's a shame too, since this place is pretty outstanding! The food was delicious, with the herbs and vegetables being fragrant and crisp, the protein well cooked, and the bread soft with a nice and chewy crust. Those portions are perfect for a good sized lunch or to split for a lighter meal. That service is about as nice and friendly as you can hope for. The prices are very reasonable, with a full lunch being around $8 - $14 depending on your choice of drinks and sides. And the shop is nice and casual, with the main entrees being made fresh to order. About the only issue I had was our Egg Roll side that was a little stale and dry as it seemed to have spent some considerable time sitting under a heat lamp. Still, my Grilled Pork Patties Bahn Mi was fantastic and my wife loved her own Grilled Beef Bahn Mi. And my Thai Tea Boba hit the spot. Honestly can't say enough how much we enjoyed our lunch. Already planning on our next visit and I thoroughly reccomend it.

When it comes to Vietnamese restaurants, there are plethora to choose from in Vista, California…read more I recently discovered Tasty Phô, which is a small, locally-owned, family-owned shop outside of downtown. They are located just off of Santa Fe Ave. in a small shopping strip. The interior is very simple, with very little decor. It is also very small and only allows for about 25 customers seating. Although there is booth seating for groups of four, this place is best for solo or date-dining. The service here is fast, friendly and very welcoming. This is because it is owned by a husband, wife and son; so there is a very personal touch when it comes to customer service. I've come here twice and so far I really love the no. 46 pork vermicelli noodles, their egg rolls, spring rolls, and their combination phô soup. It is important to note that there is pork in their eggrolls and I love how crispy they are. All of the meats in my meals were delicious! Their menu is priced very affordably with the majority of the items costing under $15. They appear to be very popular for delivery service services, such as DoorDash and Uber eats. There were also many people who did pick-up. Although I could wish for more ambience inside with some music, I can appreciate that there's ample parking in their shared lot and they have a clean bathroom. If you happen to be in Vista and want to support a small, family-owned business that serves delicious Vietnamese cuisine, I highly recommend Tasty Phô.
