It's pretty rare to find a place that serves duck of this quality. I was specifically craving duck, and this spot delivers some of the best I've had in the area. What really stood out was how plump and juicy the duck was. It's prepared simply--blanched in a way that highlights the clean, natural flavor of the duck, which then beautifully permeates the broth. The cabbage salad is classic Vietnamese fare: fresh, crisp, and well balanced. And bonus points for serving fresh pennywort drink--I always appreciate places that offer it. read more

This place is good but not the best. I think it's probably because of the sauce and the salad. I got the glass noodle with duck salad. The salad had none of the fancy Vietnamese herbs that I would've expected. There's a place in Orange County that does the bun vit better and would probably go there over this place. But you don't really have a lot of options for this type of dish. I came on a Saturday around 12 and there were quite a few people already there. Service is okay - we didn't get our waters until we asked again. And it was hard to get the server's attention. Overall, not terrible but unsure if I would come back again. read more

I never heard of duck pho be for this place popped up on a recent search. If you have never tried it before, do yourself a favor have it here. The duck broth noodles as excellent. Their duck salad is good, but a bit on the sweet side read more

Came for lunch and it was packed. We waited for a bit for a table since it is a pretty small place and finally got seated after about 30 minutes. The place feels cramped as they are trying to get as many tables as possible and it was so packed that it was very warm. As for the food, I ordered their duck egg noodle soup while my family ordered the duck curry and beef stew. The egg noodle soup was lacking in flavor. The duck felt like it lacked any brine in it to make it flavorful. The noodles were overcooked IMO. The broth was better but since the other components were lacking, it didn't make up the lack of flavor. The curry was more flavorful but also felt like it was watered down which made it more of a soup that a stew. Maybe I needed to order their other duck noodle dishes with the a more clear broth as that looked to be more of what they are known for. Overall, it's unique in that there hasn't been a duck noodle place in the area as far as I know but the flavor of the dishes could be better. read more

At Pho Vit 115, duck is their specialty. Quarter Duck Thigh Salad: There's a bed of shredded cabbage, toasted peanuts, cilantro, and a sweet lime vinaigrette. The generously carved duck seems more like half a duck than a quarter. Each piece is juicy and tender. The tangy vinaigrette is the ultimate sauce for the duck. Dining Area: This spot has about half a dozen booths and half a dozen tables in the middle. Parking: The mini plaza has a fair amount of spots and isn't too busy. read more

TL;DR - yummy and unique duck on a crispy sweet salad. The broth is really good. Lots of little duck bones are in the meat though so take your time. The duck salad was really unique compared to a lot of the food i usually eat in the 626 area. It wasn't too greasy or salty or anything. Overall it was more lean, flavorful, and especially savory with the dip that comes with the meal. Of note, I really liked the salad that the duck sits on. It's very crunchy, sweet, and has peanuts on it. We also got the duck with glass noodle soup. Its not mentioned on the menu but its a duck salad with a separate medium sized bowl of glass noodles in a classic vietnamese broth (i LOVE this broth but don't know exactly what it is lol ..) The only downside is the number of small duck bones that are still in the duck. You gotta eat it carefully because you'll be constantly spitting out those little pieces throughout your meal. It's just good they cut it up. It's not because they didn't realize it was in there. Overall we had a good time here read more

This is one of the few places in SGV that serves Pho Vit and it's yummy! I don't really like pho noodles so I like that they also offer Bun noodles. The vit is soft and tasty, my dad prefers it to be on the chewier side but I enjoyed it. The bowl it self didn't have that much duck so we ordered 1/2 duck salad on the side to share. Service was great and quick - I think our food came out 5-10 mins after we placed an order. Highly recommend if you're craving vit. read more

This place is pretty good value. The duck salad is pretty tasty- this form of duck generally isn't my favorite since I prefer crispy skin and don't want the hassle of eating around bones, but the ginger sauce and sweet chili dressing really make the dish. The cabbage salad makes it feel healthy too. We got the glass and vermicelli noodles too which came in a nice light broth and lots of scallions and cilantro. Simple but satisfying. Duck pho isn't a super popular offering, so this is a solid spot if you're looking for some duck. read more

I'm so excited that a Vietnamese Duck pho (noodle soup) place called "Pho Vit 115" opened in El Monte last year. This is my first time trying their duck pho! It's in a small plaza on Valley Blvd. and Gibson Road (close to Baldwin Ave.) The plaza is small so parking can be difficult. They open at 10 a.m. and I got there early around 10:30 a.m. so I found a parking space. The ambiance looks modern with cute decor inside. I like that they are decorated with flowers close to the entrance. I also like the purple interior lighting because I like purple color and it looks elegant. I ordered #5A Pho Vit (Duck rice noodles) for to-go. You can also choose between duck vermicelli or duck glass noodles. The regular size is $14.99 and the large is $15.99 so I ordered the large size. They handed me a cup of hot tea while I was waiting for my to-go order. I was so surprised by such a great service! The tea was good quality indeed. They packaged the to-go order so nicely and secured it. They separated the noodle soup, noodles, and duck into different containers and boxes. The temperature was still hot enough so I put the noodles into the duck noodle soup immediately. The soup broth was a bit salty but it was a perfect match with the noodle. The noodles tasted great. They gave us a good amount of duck meat with a duck leg. I personally like roast duck more than marinated duck, but their duck meat was juicy and flavorful and I also liked the dipping sauce. I also like that they put fried red onion and some shredded veggies inside. If you like bamboo shoots, they also have duck vermicelli bamboo shoots or rice noodles, or glass noodles to choose from. However, I don't like the taste and smell of bamboo shoots. I want to try their duck salad and duck curry when I dine in next time. Overall it was a good experience! I recommend it. read more

This is a hidden gem of a restaurant. Worth it for the duck salad! If you come after 4pm, they have a promo where you get free 2 bowls of pho or porridge (get the pho, you're welcome). Duck salad is perfectly seasoned with the fish sauce, and for only $24.99 (with 2 bowls of pho), you can definitely feed 3 people. Reasonable price, great service, and wonderful tasty food. The ambiance is so cute inside, decorated and very well lit. Would definitely come back and recommend to everyone! read more

Services were so great n nice attitude!! Environment is designed very elegant for a small specialty shop restaurant... read more

We came in at 7pm and the server said they ran out of duck, so we returned the next day at 10am. I'm glad we did, because we had one of the most unique pho dishes out there. Duck pho, where instead of beansprouts and thai basil, the soup is served with a duck salad with shredded cabbage, fried shallots, and a ginger fish sauce dressing. In lieu of hoisin and sriracha, chili sauce and chopped raw chilies accompany the table as condiments for a more intense heat. The noodles in the salty broth was savory comfort. The duck with the ginger sauce was succulent. But the best flavor happens when you take a bite of both as both flavors complement each other. As the more unique alternative to the chicken or even beef pho, I recommend giving this dish a try. read more

Pho Vit 115 - Duck pho - Noodles Near Me - El Monte, California

I came here with my family for lunch on Saturday to try duck pho. The restaurant is located in a corner plaza and the parking lot is pretty small. It was busy but we waited about 10 minutes for a table. There were only 2 workers manning everything. Plain pho (5/5): You have a choice between vermicelli, pho, and glass noodles. I chose the pho noodles and they were so good. It was cooked perfectly. I don't know what the difference was from other restaurants but it was probably the best noodle texture I have had. Duck salad (5/5): The duck was so tender and succulent! It was meaty. It paired well with the plain pho. The fish sauce had a nice little kick to it. The cabbage salad underneath was nice and fresh as well. I will definitely be coming back. It was a great experience. The interior was nice and clean as well. They currently have a promotion for June read more

Service was quick and friendly, ambiance comparable to most pho places. The value is great considering it's duck but overall I still prefer my #1 pho specials (dac biet). The soup had so much pepper in it that it no longer tasted like pho to me, it just tasted like hot water with pepper. The duck was tasty but there's SO many bone fragments and you cannot just take it out in one piece, it's the gritty broken kind thats in every bite almost. The bed of salad with fish sauce dressing was good. I'll give it another chance one day but didn't wow me. read more

We came here on a Saturday for lunch. Ambiance: 5/5 The place is very homey and the decor is very cute. Parking is not the best because the parking lot is small, but good thing is that most other business in this plaza were not open on this Saturday. Food: 5/5 This place is well known for their duck salad and they did not disappoint. Their duck is not gamey at all and pairs perfectly with their noodles and cabbage salad. The dressing for the salad strong, but not overpowering. The only thing is that the duck was roughly chopped, so some of the bones are harder to pick out. Drinks: 5/5 We got Vietnamese iced coffee, lemon ice tea, and pandan green tea. The iced coffee is strong and rich. The lemon ice tea was light and not too sweet. Lastly, I ordered a hot tea and to my surprise it had an aromatic pandan scent to it. It smelled amazing but did not impact the taste of the tea. Service: 5/5 The service was great. I'm sure the food was pre-prepped in the kitchen, but it all came out nice and hot like 5 minutes after we ordered. The servers were attentive and came to refill our drinks without even asking. read more

Found out this restaurant was new in the area and still in their soft opening stage so wanted to give it a try. First time ever trying duck pho. Didn't even know there was such a thing. After trying it, I still prefer chicken pho though if I really have to compare. Location of the restaurant is situated in a small plaza. Parking can be difficult. We went past 1:00 pm which wasn't during lunch hour but the restaurant was still full. We ordered a regular bowl of duck pho with rice noodles. You can choose what type of noodles you want. There were 3 choices. Also ordered duck curry. Their monthly promotion is for every entree you purchase, you get a free drink. The free drink is lemon iced tea and it's available for the whole month of May. Our food orders came out within 5 min of waiting. The restaurant was busy with parties of people constantly coming in and several others waiting to be seated. There is only 2 people running the restaurant so they were falling behind on taking orders and also preparing to go orders. We waited for like 5-10 min to see if our lemon iced teas would be served. No sign. There was like 2-3 other tables that were seated before us that got their lemon iced teas. Tables after us didn't receive any so we decided to just ask if it was available. Worst answer is no right? After all, there was a sign posted at the entrance of the restaurant about the monthly promotional drink. We did ask and one of the servers responded with a 2-3 second pause "yes" and said we will work on it. Waited for like another 2-3 min and our drinks arrived. Did appreciate the fact that we weren't forgotten however when it came time to pay , we asked for the check and after 10 min of waiting we were still sitting there. It's not until one of the servers walked past our table that we asked again. While we were waiting for the check, we saw one of the servers making iced tea in the kitchen. He was pouring a pitcher of ice and tea into a cup and he used his FINGERS to stop the ice cube from falling into the cup really fast. HIS FINGERS! That is unsanitary. Even using spoon to block it would have been nice. Anyways, by this time our check still hasn't arrived so we politely asked for the check and it came promptly. There is an option to scan the QR code on the check and pay through the phone on the clover website. I just ended up doing that because I didn't want to wait for the server to come pick up the check and wait for my credit card to be returned to me. Food is delicious but they really should take into consideration to hire another employee to help out in the front. With the size of the restaurant, three people should be enough. The waiting time was a bit annoying, I wouldn't say frustrating given the fact that both were trying to do as much as they can taking orders, wiping tables, making drinks, serving food all at the same time. But it did feel like we had to get their attention a couple times. As you can expect, there was as no follow up after we got our orders. No questions being asked like how is everything? Do you need anything ? Because they just didn't have the time at all. Please hire more staff to improve the customer service. read more

If you love duck or are curious to try it in Vietnamese cuisine, Pho Vit 115 is a must. I came here for the duck pho, and it did not disappoint. The broth is rich and flavorful, and the duck is tender with no gamey taste. I also tried the bun mang vit (duck with bamboo shoots) and the duck salad (goi vit)--both were fresh, well-balanced, and super satisfying. The portions are generous, and everything tastes homemade in the best way. The space is clean with a casual vibe. They have QR code menus and some outdoor seating that's pet-friendly, which is a plus. Service was quick and friendly. Prices are fair, and they offer lunch specials too--great value for the quality. Definitely one of the better spots in the SGV for duck pho. I'll be back! read more
