    Tofu spring roll
    Annie T.

    My spring roll had ONE leaf and all vermicelli noodles where's the cucumber or mint or cilantro..? Or at least give me some more lettuce. I had to pick out the noodles because it was so much.

    It's a quiet little corner shop. Or maybe it's when we went. The plaza is usually busy, but there's parking right across the stop sign. It's a seat yourself type of joint. The lady gave us menus as we sat down. We were really craving pho. So I got the special and my baby got meat only. The broth is really flavorful! My picky eater was impressed too. Maybe just needs a little more meat if it's just steak only. Egg rolls were good too, nothing too exciting to rave about. Service was just okay. Not sure if she was giving us space. Or she was busy doing something in back. I was waiting to pay for a bit longer than needed. What I didn't like was the pho came out at the same time as the egg rolls, so we didn't even get a chance to munch on them before our entree so we didn't even finish it. Overall, they're authentic tasting and flavorful.

    Not going to lie I almost don't want to write this review to gate keep a bit longer so my spot isn't burnt out but you know what?! This restaurant deserves their flowers and all the business they can get especially being a newfound establishment. I found this spot while on my Yelp binge and wanting to try a new pho place. I'm VERY skeptical when it comes to trying new pho spots since I've had that weren't too amazing. I come from Pho Hoa, Ca Dao, and a lot of other big chain restaurants so I know a thing or 2. Anyway I'm so glad I ventured out and tried this place! It was so good I went back the next day again and low key I think this might be my new pho spot. Their house special pho is so inexpensive and the portion size was well worth it basically getting a huge steal! $14 for the huge metal bowl that keeps your broth warm! You cannot beat or find that price anywhere else for the portion and type of pho! The broth was actually pretty good too I tried it before remixing my bowl. Their rare steak on the side they give you is more than any other place. The deal breaker for me was having chili oil on the table so you don't have to ask for it! If you know, then other places don't keep that out. They also have the veggies options we like to request at pho shops as well which were the pickled vinaigrette sliced white onions and the nuoc beo which is green onion in oil. We had the beef rib pho too and the ribs were tender and delicious! We also tried their butter chicken wings which came in 4 pieces for about $7. It was salty but in a good way where it could be enjoyed with steamed rice. We liked it. They have an extensive menu with over 100 items I really want to try a few other items but I can't seem to steer clear of ordering pho when I'm there. Plenty of parking and the owners/customer service are no frills but it looks like just a husband/wife team and they work quickly to bring everything out and remember all your requests. This place needs all the business they can get their food speaks for itself!

    I didn't have pho today, but I did recently visit this new Vietnamese eatery in the Campus Plaza Shopping Center of Rolando near SDSU. It replaced a short-lived crab boil shop that faced stiff competition from a larger chain on the same block. I was the sole customer on a weekend evening so I could pick my choice of seating from the roughly 40 spots in the dining room. Pho sounded good on a chilly winter night, however I went with some of my go to items. I started with the Shrimp Spring Rolls which came as a pair and peanut dipping sauce. The rice paper wrapping was still warm from being freshly rolled by the kitchen. The pieces of shrimp were of good size, and the sauce had chopped peanuts sprinkled on top. I also ordered the BBQ Pork with Rice Vermicelli & Veggies (Bún Thịt Nướng). The entree came in a large bowl with a cup of fish sauce on the side. The pork was grilled small pieces and not like char siu at all. The veggies were usually juilienned, but the cut was different here as they were more coarse. Some folks did trickle in as I was finishing my meal which was a good sign. The service from the cashier/waitress was acceptable, and the food came out of the kitchen relatively quickly. I gave my dinner at Pho Today a four star rating.

    I stopped in Pho Today for an early dinner. I ordered Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio or Grilled Pork and Spring Rolls with vermicelli Noodles for $13.95 plus tax. The bùn was good and they offered a lot of noodles and a decent amount of pork. The pork was tender but is was missing that smokiness from the grill. The vermicelli came hot, which was odd because it's normally served cold or at room temp. I think they forgot to run it under cold water after they boiled it. The spring rolls ground pork and veggies were very good, but the spring rolls themselves needed a more brown golden color. They looked under fried, but the filling inside was cooked properly. The veggies that came with the meal were fresh and crisp but the meal was missing those traditional crushed peanuts. The table chile paste and the fish sauce were both very good. I was a huge fan of the chili paste. The service was friendly enough. It was a little cold when I first arrived but then it warmed up and got friendlier towards the end. There's plenty of parking.

    The food

    The food was really good an came out at a decent time. The environment was nice and peaceful as well clean.the lady was so sweet and had amazing customer service really recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!!

    Rare Steak Pho

    Wow it was actually so good!!! honestly a hidden gem. The food was good, there was an abundant menu, the portion size was great, the staff was nice, it was nice & quiet, clean, & fair priced! Hard to find all this these days! I LOVED the blueberry smoothie, garlic wings, & pho!

    I LOVE THIS PLACE! It's walking distance from where I live and my friend and I come here all the time. It's such a cute little place always with the same workers. The pho is sooooo good every time and the portions are so big for the price! Love this place

I…read moredidn't realize how much Asian influence there was in this part of San Diego, especially when it came to all the great food options. Grateful to have made it here safely, we decided to grab a bite at Duyen Mai Vietnamese Restaurant. The first thing I noticed was that they had two spots right next to each other--so I already knew this place had to be pumping out some Vietnamese food! I looked around the menu and saw #23 - Phở Đặc Biệt (The Special). Of course, I was feeling special that day , so I ordered the small Pho #23. The bowl might have been small, but it was PACKED with meat, noodles, and flavor. Of course, all the sauces were right there on the side so you could make it exactly how you like it. We also ordered the Bún Riêu, which was simple but hearty and comforting. Glad we were able to fill up, recharge, and get some energy for the rest of the evening. If you're ever around this part of San Diego and craving some good Vietnamese food, definitely check out Duyen Mai. Yummy!

    Phuong Trang has been a San Diego staple for decades. It first started in Linda Vista in 1988,…read moreserving traditional Vietnamese family-style meals before moving to its current home on Convoy in 1992. Today, it's one of the most well-known Vietnamese restaurants in the city, and after this visit, I can definitely see why. One of my favorite things about coming here is the location. Even though it's right in Convoy, parking has never been an issue for me. I usually avoid the area because finding a spot can be a headache, but Phuong Trang has a large parking lot that makes stopping by so much easier. I came in for a quick takeout lunch. One thing to know before you go is they don't accept Apple Pay, so make sure to bring a physical card or cash. The staff was incredibly welcoming. They greeted me when I walked in, gave me plenty of time to look over the menu, and never made me feel rushed. That kind of hospitality really stood out. I ordered the Char-Grilled Beef Vermicelli and the Shrimp, Pork & Jellyfish Salad. The salad comes with shredded green papaya, celery, cucumber, carrots, shrimp, pork, jellyfish strips, fresh mint, crushed peanuts, and shrimp chips.The salad was refreshing with plenty of shrimp and jellyfish throughout. I especially liked the crunch from the green papaya. My only complaint was that the dressing felt a little one dimensional. I wish it had a little more brightness to bring out the fresh herbs and vegetables. It was still enjoyable, though. The Char-Grilled Beef Vermicelli was my favorite of the two. It came with vermicelli noodles, fresh herbs, pickled daikon and carrots, crushed peanuts, plus five grilled beef rolls wrapped around scallions. The beef had a delicious smoky flavor from the grill. The only downside was that the inside of the rolls was a little chewy since it didn't get the same char as the outside. Even so, every bite was packed with flavor, so it wasn't enough to take away from the dish. Between the friendly service, quick turnaround for takeout, and solid food, I can see why Phuong Trang has stayed so popular for all these years. I'd happily come back and keep working my way through their menu.

The menu is a bit overwhelming at first because they have such a huge selection, this is truly an Asian vegan dream. If you've got some childhood meat dishes you're craving, chances are they have a plant based version here!

The service was also wonderful, the server told me about the restaurant's owner and history, she was so kind and offered us an extra portion of a banh khot so we would have gave equal amounts to try. They also offer free lemon water (more like unsweetened light lemonade) which they constantly refill. The server said they made it all in house daily. It looks like a hole in the wall at first glance, but truly is a gem of a place!

It's a slap in the face to your customers & you cannot say it's because it's made from scratch when it's not a Michelin restaurant.

The food is all fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed the "whole fish", Quail, Duck, salad and the french baguette! One of the BEST dinners we have all enjoyed!!

    Ive been here twice now and heres my honest review on this place:…read more Ambiance: More formal than casual but definitely leaning more towards casual-formal than formal-formal -- the place itself has a nice vibe with an island bar in the center surrounded by high tops, tables, and booth + table seating. If I had to describe it in one word I would say "aesthetic". Service: Great, the servers check in a decent amount of the time and you can usually flag them down if you need anything Food: This is where my review goes downhill. The only thing I would say is worth getting at this restaurant is the baguette with butter (no add-ons, caviar or whatever they have going on at the time -- its just not worth it -- when I got the black truffle on my butter the shavings were so thin they might as well have not been there since it made no difference in flavor) The tamarind wings are one dimensional -- the wings are fried well, but lack in flavor, its straight *overwhelming* tamarind with no other notes. House made egg noodles lack any sort of noticeable flavor, most of it stemming from the Lap Cheong but most definitely not worth the price tag that it holds ($36) The dry aged duck is where I feel the most "scammed out of". Ive gotten this both times i've been here. Both times its been overly salty. I understand its dry-aged, but the saltiness overtakes any other flavor of the duck. The sauces try to make up for the lack of flavor but they just cant carry the entire dish on their own -- especially not for a $100 price tag. The first time I ordered this dish (Jan 2026) the duck came out cold-warm, and the second time I came here (July 2026) it came out warmer.
