Pho Duc Biet
David M.

Pho Van is definitely one of the better Vietnamese restaurants in the Hacienda/Rowland Heights area. They are tucked away in a small strip mall off Hacienda Blvd across from the Vons shopping center. They have a pretty full menu with selections of pho, com, bun, banh mi as well as appetizers and drinks. Right now (June 2025), they have a buy 3 bowls of pho and get the 4th bowl free so bring some friends here and eat some pho! Pho-sizzle!

Pho Tai Nam and Vietnamese Coffee
Daniel L.

Craving some pho, but don't wanna drive too far? Well, you came to the right place. This facility has quality, hearty Pho along with their quick and friendly service. Restaurant was a simple spacious, clean environment where you can just enjoy their food. I opted for the Pho Tai Nam and Vietnamese Coffee. While, my sister ordered their Pho Tai. You can clearly tell that their Pho is made with real bone broth and not some watered down, soy sauce base. Pretty good quality food here. This was actually my third or fourth frequenting this restaurant and will continue to do so whenever I don't feel like driving too far. Recommend to anyone craving for some soul-warming food.

very very good service ! owner fed my son while me and my husband ate, food was also amazing, i recommend this place 100%!!

Was looking for a pho place in Hacienda Heights that wasn't BMC Pho. Pho Van seemed promising on Yelp and decided to give them a try. Right off the bat, they were located in a pretty convenient lot with easy parking. We got seated and were handed pretty nice menus. They weren't sticky and disgusting feeling (yet?) and you can tell they were taken care of. I ordered a pho tai and would say I was pleasantly surprised by how much noodles and meat you get. Their portions seemed really fair for the price. Quality wasn't bad either. The pho overall wasnt super crazy good but exactly what you expect from a mom and pop pho spot. In a really good way you know? No gimmick and just solid pho. Really hoping locals support this business and it stays open as we need some good pho options in Hacienda!

Immediately accessible spot with generous portions and amazing flavor. The noodles have the perfect texture, and the broth is rich and satisfying. Added to my go-to place.

If you're looking for pho in and around Hacienda Heights and Rowland Heights specifically, there aren't many options. Pho Van on Colima and Hacienda Heights Blvd is a good option. I saw and felt the mom and pop shop vibe when I saw an older man cutting vegetables on one of the dining tables out in the open, and a teenage looking girl taking orders and manning the cashier. I got bun bo hue. It was just okay. It'll suffice if you can't get yourself to Vietnamese spots in OC or SG/Rosemead/El Monte area.

#38
Victoria R.

Made a solo trip for dinner right after mass. You are greeted as soon as you walk in. The restaurant is small but cozy. I had #38, filet mignon with rice. I saw the picture on the outside of the establishment and it did not disappoint. Food full of flavor, meat was very tender and juicy. I would definitely come back.

Good meal. The restaurant is clean and pretty. I ordered pho with oxtail. The oxtail was very tender but a little bland. The broth was delicious though. I loved that they give lots of basil. Usually you get a couple stems, but this was generous. I ordered something with bean curd skins. I wanted to try something totally new, and I liked it a lot. It was crunchy and soft. It was delicious with the dip it comes with. I also ordered a lemon soda? I can't remember the name. That was ... interesting. I did not love it but I did finish it throughout the rest of the day. It was very concentrated and the flavors confused me. It was tart, salty and sweet. Imagine adding salt into lemonade.

Hair on my spring roll !! Eww will not be returning
Shelly-Claudia V.

Disgusting I found a hair on my spring roll I will not recommend this place, I was able to get a refund

#16 brisket + pho
Nick G.

"Hole in the wall pho shop" Overall experience, staff was friendly and food was great! We ordered: -spring rolls (they were good, I'd skip them next time but they were good) - both of the Pho was ordered was great + the broth was very tasty! Add Siratcha or chilis to your broth for that perfect kick! We will be returning, as we are local to the area!

49. Vermicelli BBQ Beef, Fried Pork Sausage, and Egg Rolls
Gary S.

I saw Pho Van driving around Hacienda Heights and decided to stop in to try their Bún Heo Nuóng #49, a bowl of BBQ Beef, Fried Pork Sausage, and Egg Rolls on a bed of rice noodle vermicelli with cucumbers, lettuce, bean sprouts, and fish sauce on the side. The beef was bussin, seasoned just right, and the egg rolls crisp. It hit the spot! Pho Van is clean, the service is quick, and the food is delicious. I'll definitely be back!

After about 36 minutes, we finally asked how much longer it would be. We were told, "Two more minutes." It ended up taking another 20 minutes before our food arrived. The service was extremely disappointing, and unfortunately, the food wasn't worth the wait either. The tables were sticky and clearly hadn't been properly cleaned, the floors looked like they hadn't been mopped in a very long time, and there was an unpleasant smell as soon as we walked in. We were also the only non-Chinese customers while we were there, and we honestly felt like the regular customers were given more attention. If you don't speak their language, communication is difficult--the staff barely spoke English, and we essentially had to point at the menu to place our order. Maybe this place has a loyal local following, but our experience was very disappointing. If you decide to give it a try, I would recommend ordering to-go. You might actually get your food faster. First visit & last visit. Good luck! We rather go to happy wok, off hacienda bl in La Puente, their food is delicious and they serve you a lot of food for your money, oh and not only you get your food faster, it's super clean too. You can thank me later....:)

Overall, the food was excellent, even my Asian parents, who can be pretty critical when it comes to Chinese food, gave most dishes high marks. The crispy noodles had great texture, the West Lake beef soup was comforting and flavorful, and the eggplant portions were generous. The service was what I'd describe as classic Chinese restaurant service. The waitress came across as a little rushed and occasionally seemed slightly annoyed, but she was still attentive and accommodated everything we asked for without any issues. Our food came out at a reasonable pace, and we never felt forgotten or had to chase anyone down. The atmosphere had its own unique charm. The restaurant was playing early-2000s hip-hop while a Chinese gangster drama played on the TV, which made for an unexpectedly entertaining backdrop. The restroom was also clean, which is always appreciated. My only real criticism is the sweet and sour pork. The batter itself was crispy and well executed, but too many of the pieces were mostly breading wrapped around bone with very little meat. It was the one dish I probably wouldn't order again. Even with that one miss, everything else was strong enough that we left very satisfied.

The beef chow mein was good-- while it was lacking some wok hay, the noodles were fried to perfection. Flavor was lacking as well. The beef brisket was tender and the flavor was there but it was slightly tangy/sour-- on the border of doing bad? I've never had this dish taste sour. The typhoon ribs were filled with fried garlic and the ribs came out hot and crispy! I recommend this dish if you like salt and pepper shrimp/chicken-- this is a fun alrernative Service was better than the avg Chinese restaurant. We were 1/3 parties so I'm not sure if it changes when it gets busy. There's plenty of parking.

From the outside, it didn't look like it would be spacious inside, but upon entry, I had a very nice impression of it. Felt very comfy and cozy. Love the simplicity of the seating and cool decor. Soft yellow lighting made the space whimsically romantic. Super nice and friendly staff from start to end. We were greeted and seated right away. No hardcopy menu. Scan to order made easy. We ordered quite a bit for 3 people. We did well actually. Each dish came out one after another. I appreciate the quick food delivery. OMG, every single item was on point! Presentation was enticing. Deep flavors shined through at every tasty and delicious bite. Prices were astonishingly reasonable for the great portions. Staff and service was amazing. My eldest daughter dropped her chopticks. Before we can wave down the servers, the gentleman staff was already at our table with a clean pair of chopsticks. Now that's what I call service at its best. Thank you! I fell in love with the amazing food, attentive staff, exceptional service, and elegantly simple ambiance. Perfect dining experience like no other. We'll be back for more tasty goodness. Thank you MIAN! What we ordered: 1 Cold Appetizers Combo - 6 different varieties, very light and appetizing, great healthy choice! 2 Braised Pork Noodles - both my daughters swooped this bowl down fast, pork belly was tender, noodles had a bouncy texture, broth flavor was top-notch savory, SO GOOD! Highly recommend. 1 Chengdu Zajiang Noodles - I'm not a big Sichuan fan, but this dish I like. Perfectly seasoned minced pork plus fried egg and bouncy chewy noodles mixed in bold, spicy, and savory sauce. YUM! 1 Pork Dumplings (12) - huge dumplings with flavorful pork filling, best bang for your buck choice! 1 Pot Stickers (6) - good size, lightly pan-fried, wished it was a bit more pan-fried that would give it more crispiness on the outside, still a good choice! 1 Toothpick Chicken - lots of small tender chicken chunks, got a spicy kick to it, yes it comes with toothpicks for use for grabbing your chicken, loved the fun concept! 1 Steamed Egg & Minced Pork - steamed egg was very smooth and jiggly, minced pork was flavored well, perfect combo! 1 Sugar Glutinous Rice Cake (6) - nice and chewy, brown sugar was not overly sweet, highly recommend for dessert! 1 Mung Bean Soup (cold) - I can taste a light touch of mung bean, but not enough for me to say WOW, glad I tried it
