Have been going here for over 10 years. Love this place and they never disappoint. Staff is very nice and work quickly. This will always be my favorite comfort food!! Thank you.

61. Beef with Egg Loaf and Rice
Jeremy S.

Pretty solid Pho spot in the UV plaza. I had one of their rice dishes with charbroiled beef since it was a hot day. I was impressed with the portion size and the quality! The beef was delicious and the egg and fish sauce was great as well. The only gripe I had was that the rice was a bit clumpy but not a big deal. Good service and convenient location. Interior is a bit outdated and I don't think the AC was running. But still a good option close to campus.

one of the dirty dishes, built up yellow stuff on fork and it smelt terrible !

TERRIBLE!! -10 every single dish was dirty & the boba was falling apart, it looked old !

Not a bad place if you're craving a bowl of pho. They have a big selection of Vietnamese food that range from broken rice dishes to even pho. Always ate here growing up and still has the quality I like in their food. Service was friendly and the ambiance is very homie with a nice Vietnamese man making sure we have water and food ready within minutes of sitting down.

28 B Cha Gio (veggie roll) with lettuce, cilantro, pickled onions & carrots with dipping liquid

It's been a while since our last visit. We recently gave it another try and I stand corrected. I appreciate that they changed the receipts to an itemized list of what you're paying for. Nothing to hide and out in the open. A complete 180 from a previous visit. The food was soothing. This place hasn't changed in appearance, hard working staff or placement of table condiments. You can reminisce about coming here while you went to college at UCR and years later come back to visit and it'll still be the same place you once remembered. Familiar faces all while enjoying that same great pho. It has once again captured me as a returning customer. So glad to see improvements for the better. With a line formed at the door the continued patronage keeps this place alive and thriving.

54. Pork  chop and charbroiled pork with broken rice AND an egg.

My party and I went into this place for lunch around noon and the parking was as expected with the university nearby. The service was quick and efficient. The booths were a little small and tight, but seemed ok for a quick lunch. We all got the same thing, number 54 with an egg. It was good classic pork chop with an egg a sort of fish sauce? The meal was missing a bit more flavor than I liked, but I'll have to try the other dishes in the future.

See all

Wow -- this place is a hidden gem in every sense. The contemporary art all over the walls creates…read moresuch a fun, vibrant, and inviting atmosphere, and the food is incredible. The pho was packed with flavor, everything tasted fresh, and the whole experience was top-notch. Beautiful space, amazing food, and definitely a place I'd recommend!"

Parking is tough especially around dinner time…read more The place has a cool decor with murals of old Hollywood but the lighting is dark and dreary. Service was extremely slow for it not being busy. They were a bit stingy on the lemon wedges and veggies. There were three of us and we ordered three bowls of Pho. We got one small plate of veggies and two lemon wedges. When we asked for more lemons, waiter looked over at our table to make sure we actually needed more lemons. When we asked for a sauce plate/cup, he looked bothered. Well next time just put little sauce plates on the table and we wouldn't have to ask you to get it. Like how do they not know people like to dip their meats in Siracha and Hoison sauce. Not everyone just pours it into the bowl. When we ordered our Pho, we also ordered a Banh Mi sandwich as a to go order. At the end of our meal, my wife went to pay and the check included the price with the sandwhich. She paid and asked how long the sandwich would take, they said, "what sandwich!" Uh, the one we just paid for. Cashier looked confused and asked to see the receipt. Then he went to the back and asked about the sandwich. We could hear someone in the back saying they didn't make a sandwich. Cashier apologized and we waited another 12 minutes for the sandwich. Pho was actually good but a bit on the pricey side. $20 for the Dac Biet. Next time we'll just go to Pho Ha down the street for better noodles at a cheaper price and they won't charge you for a sandwich that doesn't exist.

This place has an extensive vegan and vegetarian menu which is pretty cool! Unfortunately, I wasn't…read moresuper impressed with the food I tried. I ordered a vegan pho and a vegan banh mi. The pho was the better of the two. I liked the vegan spiced beef meatballs but the airy and light fried tofu in the pho didn't feel texturally comparable to sliced beef in pho. I also didn't feel like there was enough protein in the bowl, since normally pho is packed with a variety of different meats. The flavor of the soup was nice and the amount of noodles was satisfactory as well. The banh mi was not so good. I liked the crinkle cut radish and carrots but that's about all. The sliced beef meatballs and the fried tofu again didn't really evoke the taste and texture of meat in a banh mi, and the protein was basically just a few thin non-overlapping slices per section of the sandwich. The worst offender-- the sandwich was dry. Vegan should mean vegan mayo, not no mayo at all. It was sooooo dry. I had to take it home and add my own mayo. I don't hate this restaurant, and I really appreciate the willingness to incorporate a vegan friendly menu. However, the pho and banh mi missed the mark for me. I think I'd just order different items next time, like some of the saucy stir fry plates instead.

The jury is still out on this place. Based on my meal i had to give a lower star rating. I got the…read morebeef vermicelli plate based on the staffs recommendation and it was terrible. The beef tasted old and if i could say, without ever trying dog food, the beef reminded me of that. I really wanted to like this place. The inside of the restaurant is super cute. And it wasnt busy. They had a few people at the bar. And one other party of 4 eating, an empty table next to them with dirty dishes, and no one bothered to pick them up the whole 20-30 minutes i sat there waiting for my food. The other items i ordered were a chicken bahn mi, edamame and egg rolls. The family said it was good. I just can't recommend the beef. I might check it out again and try something else.
