Pho Show in Culver City is officially on our repeat list. We ordered the brisket pho with added vegetables and it was absolutely amazing. The broth was rich, deeply flavorful, and so perfectly balanced that it didn't need a single sauce added. The brisket was incredibly tender. Truly a pleasure to eat. We added carrots, broccoli, and bok choy, and the bok choy was cooked to perfection. The noodle-to-broth ratio was just right. We also ordered the pork egg rolls. There were three in the order and my boyfriend and I literally fought over the last one. That should tell you everything. Crispy, flavorful, perfect. The Arnold Palmers were so good we both refilled. Twice. The ambience satisfies everyone's needs. There's great music playing, the space is lively, open, and beautifully designed, and it's perfect for a first date or a decades long relationship. There's great seating inside with plenty of options, including accessible table seating for guests who need it. They also have an outdoor enclosed patio that is heated, making it comfortable year-round. Beer and wine are available, which rounds out the experience nicely. Service was fantastic. Stephanie is the best. She gave us great pro tips for what to order next time, which we absolutely plan to do. Highly recommend dining in for the full experience. And pro tip from us: download their app. If you like ordering for pickup or delivery, you can earn points and get free food. They're open daily but closed between 3-5 PM, so plan accordingly. You're welcome. read more

I am obsessed with a good fried tofu, and therefore was met with disappointment. Soggy, bland, cold, and gushing with greasy oil. What happened to the salt and pepper? I legitimately could only taste oil, and it left a good grease film that coats my mouth even still as I type. Additionally, I asked for it to be as spicy as spicy can be. Fresh chilis or something, but alas their sriracha packets and chili oil were all they had, and did not bring the heat. Sincerely wondering how some reviews say the tofu was "the best they've ever had" because I'm sitting firm on the other end of the scale. Made quickly though, so that's nice. read more

Food was amazing!, service was a 10/10. If you're gonna start with an appetizer, I would recommend the "Salt pepper fish" it's a must try. . read more

Delicious and fast. Loved the salt and pepper tofu and the chicken pho. Jessie and the other servers were all lovely and very attentive.

If you've been looking for late night pho in West LA, you'll have to check out this spot PHO SHOW! Super excited to have discovered this hidden gem Vietnamese fusion restaurant that's also dangerously close to my Pilates studio LOL. @officialphoshow 's menu obviously features pho, but also a variety of Vietnamese and Indochinese dishes such as banh mi, vermicelli, shaken beef, stir-fried noodles and fried rice. I definitely thought the food had an overall fusion, lighter taste than the authentic Vietnamese food I'm used to, but I liked the freshness of their ingredients and their generous portions. I was also pleasantly impressed with how nice the service and interiors/outdoor seating of the restaurant was, and I would definitely recommend checking this spot out for an affordable filling meal, a late night stop, or a nice date in the Culver City area! Featured here: rare steak and beef balls pho: I loved how generous their noodle portion was, but I wished there was a bit more meat and more flavor in the broth (although it's decent with a bit of lime + sriracha added) charbroiled shrimp vermicelli: probably my favorite dish! The shrimp was grilled perfectly, with a lovely smoky flavor without being overcooked, and all the salad greens and vermicelli noodles melded very well with this protein. I did wish the fish sauce was a bit more flavorful/pungent, but I get that's not very palatable to most people chicken banh mi: unfortunately, this was probably my least favorite dish of my meal. Both the meat and banh mi were insanely tough and hard to eat steamed rice with shaken beef filet mignon: I loved this dish and how well cooked the beef and jasmine rice were. While this dish was overall one of my favorites, I wished the beef had a bit more seasoning/wok flavor read more

I had steak pho and paid $5 extra to add brisket. The broth was so sweet, didn't take like pho broth at all. The steak so tough it was inedible. They didn't include the brisket - I held on the phone line trying to get a refund for the $5 but they never came back and I gave up - it seemed like they were just trying to wait me out. read more

Such a cute spot! Its nicely decorated! The service was AMAZING! Everyone was super sweet! They checked in on us various times! They were packed as the night went on! They also had so many to go orders! The food was really good! We tried some new dishes like the curry noodles! read more

My daughter & I love coming here when we get a craving for Pho! It's such a chill open dining atmosphere and a great place to gather and chat with your loved one's. I always enjoy the "Tom Yum Rare Steak Pho" which is already spicy and a well seasoned broth. The steak cooks immediately in the hot broth! My daughter orders the plain chx Pho cause she likes to dress hers up with sauces to taste! It's part of the whole experience of eating Pho, she tells me! My only complaint was the fishy taste of the crab wontons; it was freshly fried, but maybe the wonton itself was not as fresh. We will still return, we will just try a different appetizer next time ;-) read more

It was rainy and cold in LA, so Pho Show was perfect for lunch. I ordered the crab puffs. They were super light and tasty. I ordered the pho filet mignon with veggies. The broth was really good and full of flavor. The veggies were fresh and the portion size was nice. I would definitely check this spot out again. It does get crowded for lunch, but it's still a vibe. read more

i would give this place 5 stars for the vibes and the service, but i cannot in good conscience give it any more than 3 for the food.... the chicken wings were just alright -- nothing too good or bad about it. it's the vermicelli noodles i got beef with (no pun intended)! i don't know if they were trying to go "al dente" with them, but they were severely undercooked. i've never, ever had vermicelli noodles this hard at a vietnamese restaurant before. all the sauces couldn't save the unpleasant experience, nor could the meat, which was also quite rough to chew. my boyfriend got the pho, which he noticed the noodles also seemed undercooked. don't know if someone in the kitchen was in a rush or if this cooking method was a way to appeal to non-asian folk -- but it certainly did not appeal to us. read more

Pho Show is one of the pho joints around the area that is open relatively late in comparison to other pho places around town - so when the cravings struck, it was really the only option nearby. We ended up placing an order over the phone for takeout since it was already pretty late. We ordered a dac biet pho, salt and pepper chicken wings, and shaking beef and the food was ready for my pickup within 15 minutes, which was pretty quick. Dac Biet Pho (3/5): The soup tasted good and the meat was good, but - perhaps this is just because it was take out - the noodles were hard. I know heating the soup up more to cook the noodles longer is an option, but considering we went straight from the restaurant to home, we kind of hoped that the noodles would either be cooked sufficiently and/or the soup would be hot enough to finish the noodles. Considering the noodles are the primary component of the dish, it seemed like a pretty big miss. This would probably be rated higher if we dined in. Salt and Pepper Chicken (2/5): This was a spontaneous last minute order, and I honestly regretted it. 15 dollars got us 6 chicken wings that were honestly kind of dry. Taste was alright, pretty standard fare (salt and pepper is as basic as it gets) but portion size and texture makes this a definite skip. Shaking Beef (4.5/5): Pretty good! Comes with rice to cut the saltiness and the beef was tender and flavorful in a black pepper sauce. The veggies served as nice garnish and kept the flavors from being too one note. Overall, while I didn't love everything we ordered, I can see us coming back again - but I think that we'll be passing on pho to-go, and we'll definitely be skipping the wings next time. Hopefully things will be better next time! read more

I feel like SoCal is so diverse and offers so many good food options, but one thing they never get right is pho. I tried this place out because I am new to the area (I have lived in other parts of SoCal) and I'm always on the hunt for good pho. Being SouthEast Asian, I know good pho. The meat to noodle ratio is off. Too much meat. The bowl was too small, mind you, I ordered the large since there's only a $1 difference from the medium and large. It was just disappointing. The broth was okay good. It wasn't horrible. The meat was chewy and a bit hard to swallow. The servers were nice, and checked up on me often, but when it was time for me to check out, they all disappeared. I tried getting their attention a few times, but they'd walk right past me. I finally got one of them to notice me, and she said "okay let me go get your check" mind you...they use tablets to close out. She took another 10 mins to get back to me. Just odd. read more

IG @allysxn.eats | we got pho, chicken rice dish, vermicelli dish, and thai tea - all of the dishes were average, not super authentic in taste. good service and comfortable seating, so that was a plus since we took my grandparents here too! there's limited free parking in the back, but there's also free parking in the neighborhood behind and paid street parking in the front. read more

I did takeout twice from here and loved it... generous portions and just delicious. Last night I met my East Coast pal for a repast before he flew home. It was 6:15 on a Sunday night and the place was packed. THE NOISINESS WAS EAR SPLITTING. We could not hear ourselves talk which was an important issue for us both. And for 2 hours it continued!!!! I loved what I ordered salt and pepper calamari to share and diced chicken in lettuce cups. He didn't like his Pho at all ... ( I think he ordered the less spicy one).... The lettuce cups were way over sauced ... most times I do eat this dish the sauce is on the side. I still enjoyed it but my friend eschewed his portion and said " it all tasted like below average strip mall food"... I pointed out that many "restaurant gems" in Los Angeles are in strip malls and that I definitely didn't agree with his critique, but to be fair, the loudness ruined any kind of ambience and had ruined his appetite. I enjoyed my meal but going forward I WILL STICK TO TAKE OUT! I still love this place and will continue patronizing it... and will try it again inside BUT not in near future!! read more

4+ i've actually been here a lot over the years. I usually try to stay away from pho places with puns in the name, but honestly, this place is consistent and has really reasonable prices. It's one of my go to's in the middle of the week when I just can't figure out what I want to eat, but want something soupy and comforting. The service is always solid and it seems to be pretty busy each time I've come here. Just a pretty casual and friendly vibe overall in this place. Parking has never been an issue for me as there are a lot of metered parking along the street. Sometimes I have to park a little further than I would like, but it's not a big deal. read more

I had such a great experience here, and a huge part of that was thanks to our server, Jess. From the moment we sat down, she was super welcoming, attentive, and just genuinely kind.

I can not say enough good things about this restaurant. The food is fantastic. I usually get either the eggplant, broccoli beef or honey walnut shrimp. My wife loves their pho and the pork egg rolls, salt and pepper fish are some of the best apps I've ever had. Their excellence doesn't end with the food. The service here is great and staff are extremely helpful and nice. read more

We love pho show! Thank you to Jesse for the excellent service! Staff is friendly and inviting and helpful. They have really good Pho! And lots of other selections. The orange chicken is excellent and crispy. The chicken chow fun is really good, and their portions are large! Their food has a really good flavor, you know that seasoned wok fried taste. The fried rice is excellent, and lots of selections to choose from. read more

Brisket pho is bomb and the spring rolls are a great appetizer! 5 stars and will definitely come back!!

I've been coming here for a few years, but this last year marked a definite change. The service is poor. I ordered pho, never got my bean sprouts/veggies. Appetizer but no plates. No water refills. I mentioned this in the end and I got a quick sorry as he took my money. Yea I'm done here. read more

Food was so delicious! We had amazing service from Jessie :) I will definitely be coming back and recommending to all friends and family.

Wow I'm impressed with the pho here on the west side! It's hard to find good pho which the secret is having a good broth. Here they make their broth very flavorful and it does have more of a hint of sweetness to it but not overpowering and goes so well with the pho noodles and meat! They give good portions of through noodles which are bouncy and good portion of meats! I will be coming back here again to try their other pho and items! If you don't want to travel far for good pho on the west side, come here! read more

I'm giving two stars: one for the servers and one for the lone chef who was handling the entire restaurant on a Friday night. The lack of stars is reserved for management, who clearly didn't staff enough chefs for one of the busiest nights of the week. We waited 50 minutes for our pho, and what made it even more frustrating was seeing people who arrived after us get their food first. That said, the servers were doing their best under the circumstances, and I do appreciate their efforts. Unfortunately, it seemed like there was no management on hand to apologize or give updates on the long wait times. read more

Love this location, parking is plentiful on the street (no private lot). Upon arriving, they are BUSY! To go orders and dine in and delivery drivers and I don't think they can handle this capacity but got to give a lot of credit to the amazing staff doing their very best! We got seated at our table but man these tables are close together, I couldn't hear my friend but I could for sure hear everything from the next table over. This is not a spot for hanging and talking, more for lovely atmosphere and eating food then taking off. We got the chicken pho, beef vermicelli bowl, and shrimp spring rolls. The food was pretty good but do want to make a note that this is not authentic Vietnamese food, rather fusion food so keep that in mind. Spring roll peanut sauce was great! read more

Came to have dinner at Pho Show and they were able to accommodate my family of 8. Food was delicious and Jessie was fantastic. Jessie was attentive and made great recommendations. Definitely will be back and hope Jessie is available to provide more fantastic service. read more

I've been coming to Pho Show for years, and it never misses. The food is consistently delicious -- that soul-warming kind of pho that hits just right, every single time. Tom Yum Pho Rear Steak!!! But what truly makes this place feel special is the people. Jessie, our regular server, is a gem. She's been there as long as I can remember, always greeting us with a warm smile and making us feel right at home. She remembers our usuals, checks in with genuine care, and brings such a comforting vibe that it feels more like visiting family than just eating out. read more

I always try not Pho places and I always come back here! The broth is not cinnamon or anise forward, it has a perfect balances of all the spices! The service can be slow depending on the day but that's not the servers fault, it's about being understaffed. Either way, the serving and plates are always uniformly delicious! read more

I've been here 4-5 times. The broth is just utterly flavorless every time. I won't be back. Just disappointing every single time. read more

Jessie was so helpful and sweet! She was very attentive and brought everything out very fast. The food was so flavorful. We got the sweet and spicy Thai wings, I highly recommend them!! They were very crispy and had a lot of sauce. I got the rare steak tom yum which is already spiced pho. AMAZING!!! It never lets me down. I always end up adding extra spice on the side because it enhances the flavor. My partner got orange chicken and white rice. He said both were really good. The server Jessie and all of the staff helped make our experience great. Thanks guys, we highly recommend this place!!! Will be coming back :) read more

Service was a little slow, and I'm a patient person. Watched three tables get sat and served before my party received their food. Pho portions were a little small considering the price, the orange chick was a nice portion but rice came as separate add on. Maybe they were having an off day but disappointing for a first time visitor. read more

Really really good pho! Moved to LA from San Diego where we were spoiled with plenty of great pho places, so it's nice to find delicious pho here! Perfect noodle texture, great soup taste, plenty of meat! They also have several servers so the service is pretty good. It's a cute pho restaurant with great food! read more
