Always a great experience at SUP Noodle Bar in Irvine! One of my favorites is the Anthony Bourdain dish. The filet mignon is incredibly tender and practically melts in your mouth. The flavors are fantastic, and it's one of those dishes I keep coming back for. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant has a great vibe. Great food, great service, and a place I always enjoy coming back to. Highly recommended! read more

Four of us went to SUP Noodle Bar in Irvine on a Tuesday evening. We arrived at 6:00 p.m. and managed to snag the last available table without a wait. Judging by how quickly the place filled up, coming much later would probably have been a different story. The Food Between the four of us, we ordered the Parmesan Fries, two variations of pho, the Filet Mignon Fried Rice, and the Cajun Garlic Noodles. The Parmesan Fries were a very generous portion, exceptionally crispy, beautifully seasoned, and--in terms of flavor--just about perfect. My only complaint was that they were noticeably oily. Other than that, I couldn't find much fault with them. The Filet Mignon Pho was a treat. The beef was exactly as promised: tender and flavorful. What surprised me was the distinct kiss of cinnamon in the broth. Personally, I would have preferred to suspect the cinnamon rather than clearly taste it, but that's entirely a matter of preference. My wife loved every bite. I also managed to steal a taste of the Filet Mignon Fried Rice. While I certainly didn't regret my own order, I immediately knew what I'll be having next time. The filet was wonderfully tender and juicy, and the rice had a beautifully rounded, savory flavor. A real winner. My Cajun Garlic Noodles were excellent. The sauce had just the right consistency--rich and creamy, yet still delicate enough that the garlic and seasoning weren't buried underneath it. It was certainly on the heavier side, but somehow managed not to leave me feeling weighed down afterward. Rich without becoming exhausting is not an easy balance to strike. The Atmosphere SUP has a modern, distinctly Asian noodle-bar feel. Hard surfaces, no carpeting, and very little acoustic dampening mean that, in polite restaurant language, the atmosphere is lively. In less polite restaurant language: it's loud. That didn't bother us, and it actually suited the casual, energetic atmosphere. But I probably wouldn't choose SUP for a quiet, intimate dinner--or for hearing a lengthy story in which every single word matters. The Service This was the standout. We were not the world's easiest table. Between four first-time customers, individual likes and dislikes, questions about the menu, and various dietary requirements, we gave our waiter plenty to work with. Chase was patient throughout. He explained things, repeated things when necessary, answered our questions, and helped guide each of us toward something that suited us. By the end of dinner, all four of us were convinced we'd ordered the right thing. I'm fairly difficult to impress when it comes to restaurant service, but Chase impressed me. This isn't fine dining, nor should it be judged as such. What stood out was something much simpler: at every opportunity, Chase did a little more than was required of him. He was attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without lecturing, and patient without ever making us feel that we were being difficult. That deserves recognition. The Bottom Line We thoroughly enjoyed the food, the service, and our evening at SUP Noodle Bar. The food was flavorful and well prepared, portions were generous, and the service--particularly from Chase--was exceptional. The only caveat I would mention is the noise level, and that certainly won't stop me from returning. In fact, I already know what I'm ordering next time: That Filet Mignon Fried Rice. --- And Then, Two Days Later... Well, that didn't take long. Two days after writing this review, I was back. My daughter ordered the Filet Mignon Fried Rice I'd been planning to have, so, in the interest of not ordering the same thing, I changed course and ordered the Pho Anthony Bourdain. An instant classic. Absolutely delicious--and now I have a new problem: too many great things to choose from. You won't hear me complain. That's a pretty good problem to have. read more

Beef belly pho definitely worth for lunch special. I also got the anthony togo as well and it was good. Broth was definitely different due to the smokey beef. They also use fresh noodles. Warningg** veggie pho is not vegetarian.. They have in small font showing its made with beef. But most older people dont read since its so small already on the phone. Honestly makes no sense because why would someone pay almost $17 for veggie pho if its in beef broth if they eat meat. We only found out because we asked for extra noodle and the noodles came with broth. my aunt was nice about it and didnt make a scene. But the waiter did mention that he will remember to double check next time to make sure customers know its not vegetarian. +0.5 for service. read more

Love everything about SUP noodle bar. The Ambience, the food, the Service, everything. All boxes are checked. When it comes to the pho, it's the only restaurant that I've been to that offers free noodle refills. But it's not just about the extra noodles. The broth is amazing and the meat is high quality. The lomo saltado is also 10/10. It's a must for the table when coming read more

I love this place! There's always a wait list but worth it, they have the best loma saltado with filet anywhere. Today I also had the short rib pho and the chicken wings with fried rice. Everything is so good and lots of food for 2 with leftovers. Bonus - extra noodles with your pho - no charge. You can't beat that. Lots of indoor seating, including sitting at their noodle bar for quick eating. Our waitress Angela was so amazing and she doesn't forget a thing. And that is difficult when they're extremely busy and there's really no down time for these folks. If you're in the area, you have to try this place. You can also waitlist online. I can't wait to go back when I'm in the area. read more

Worst service I have ever experienced on a Saturday lunch on August 15th. We signed up for the waitlist, but still had to wait another 20-30 minutes after our table was ready. Then, when we finally came into the restaurant, they asked us to walk back outside because they still needed to set up the table. I have no idea what needed to be set up when the table was already cleaned, especially when we had hungry, impatient children with us. Once we were finally seated and ordered our food, it took forever to arrive. Whenever we tried to get a server's attention, they seemed to avoid eye contact. We at least waited for 40 mins for our dishes to come to the table. The combination pho was definitely tasty. The broth and pickled onions really tell a story, and the food itself was enjoyable. However, I don't know if I would come back again because of this level of service. Good food can only go so far when the overall dining experience is this frustrating. read more

Put your name on the tablet to register for Yelp Check-in system and prepare to wait for 1+ hours even on a weekday. The food does come out quick and when you're almost done, the waiter will ask you to pay at the table so the service inside the restaurant is very fast. I tried the beef pork belly pho and loved the salty and umami flavor of the broth and the noodles were chewy! read more

SUP Noodle Bar - Irvine - Beef Belly Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Irvine, California

8/09/26 11:53 a.m. I love SUP and their weekday lunch meal deal, but there's definitely room for improvement when it comes to consistency and customer service. I always order the Beef Belly Pho shaken style, but the last three times I've visited, my pho has been served without it being prepared that way. I understand mistakes happen, but instead of taking the dish back and remaking it, the staff simply brings me the shaken-style ingredients in a separate bowl and tells me to add them myself. That might be acceptable if it happened quickly, but on average, it takes 10 to 15 minutes for the ingredients to arrive. By then, my pho has already started to get cold, which takes away from the experience. What makes it even more frustrating is that I usually wait 30 to 45 minutes for a table. After dealing with the same issue during my last three visits, I'm not sure I'll be returning anytime soon. When the food is prepared correctly, it's delicious, and I understand why this place is so popular. Unfortunately, the repeated inconsistencies and lack of urgency in fixing mistakes outweigh the value of the lunch special for me. read more

Beef belly pho lunch special for $11.99 on weekdays from 10 am to 4 pm- count me in! Service was quick and servers were attentive. Decor is modern and aligns with their other Kei Concept restaurants. The beef belly pho had a flavorful broth and the serving was plentiful. I love how they do unlimited noodle refills here too, literally a bang for the buck! I would highly recommend this spot, especially for their lunch special price that can't be beat. Do keep in mind that this is a limited time offer, so not too sure when it ends. read more

Kept hearing great things about SUP. We like their sister restaurant ROL and are big pho fans. Quality was very good, our if the most authentic tasting Pho I've had. Came hot and tasted amazing. Also ordered the fries with spicy mayo. Will be back read more

Always busy. Get there asap to put your name on the waitlist or you'll be waiting forever. There's a reason there's lines to get in. There's a decent amount of seating inside and it's very clean and cute, just very busy all the time. This location is near a lot of different stores restaurants and dessert places. Remember they have unlimited pho noodle refills when you need more with your broth. The broth: AMAZING you can tell it's cooked for a day or more. I got the brisket pho which had a perfect amount of meat to noodle ratio. The meat was tender and flavorful. The cilantro and scallion garnish is just phenomenal with the perfect broth. We also got the beef belly dry noodle. This was very good and similar to vermicelli noodles dishes. It had nice sauces on the side and well cooked flavorful meat. We got shrimp spring rolls and shaken house fries. Both are yummy. The spring rolls could come with more shrimp. It's more veggies than shrimp. We also got the lychee lemonade which was not too sweet which is good and super refreshing. We ordered the herbal iced tea too which had a pandan flavor. (Not sweet it's a different type of flavor so be warned it's not typical sweet tea!!) super delicious flavor and refreshing. This menu is big and you need to try new stuff. My third time coming and getting new stuff, can't ditch the pho though, it's too good. read more

SUP Noodle Bar is a restaurant serving pho, lomo saltado, kimchi fried rice, and more. It's in the same plaza as other Kei Concept restaurants like NEP and ROL. In short, my experience wasn't the best due to unclear processes and unorganized execution. I tried the seasonal lunch special, which is a $11.99 beef belly pho with unlimited refills - this was a very good deal. The bean sprouts and basil were very fresh. The broth was extremely oily but was still flavorful. It was filling and hearty. The service could be better. When seated, my table didn't get water cups. I noticed others got it as they were seated. I asked twice before receiving water cups. We asked about the unlimited refills and my waitress didn't explain how it worked and left us with "ok how many do you want?" The process wasn't obvious to us. Looked like it took a while to get the refill orders logged - perhaps they were short staffed? My party waited a while for the refills to come, to the point where our broth got cold. After inquiring about the status of the refills, the waitress defensively explained "I already put it in, you have to wait until it gets cooked." That response didn't put my party at ease because we still didn't know how much longer we had to wait. The manager later delivered the noodle refills and explained there were kitchen hiccups, likely in an attempt to de-escalate. The friendliness eased tension, a professional way of handling customer frustration. We ordered two more refills with him immediately and they arrived quickly. However, the dining experience still felt unorganized because two additional refills arrived at my table that were not previously requested. When it came time to paying the bill, the approach was also unclear. Some folks paid at the front so I waited there. The staff chilled in the back area and I couldn't get their attention, but later was told to pay at the table. I also heard gossiping in the room headed to the bathroom, and the staff quickly hushed when I passed by. It created an awkward, uncomfortable atmosphere. Overall, the price is good, flavor is there, and the unlimited noodle refills is a unique differentiator from other pho places. However, the service experience wasn't the best and I hope to see it improve for future visits. read more

We had another wonderful experience at SUP! Using Yelp Waitlist, we were able to easily wait in line, explore the marketplace, and we were sat in a timely manner. My favorite dish here has to be their Pho Anthony Bourdain. The filet mignon paired with the shallots and garlic made for a fragrant bite each time. Their flat noodles were so springy and had amazing texture as well. As always, you must order their unlimited noodles to savor their broth so I ended up ordering 4 extra. Such a wonderful time and I can't wait to try their kimchi fried rice next time! read more

Solid pho spot with solid food. According to our waiter, they're known for their pho and I would say their pho broth is flavorful and does taste very clean. My boyfriend and I got the Anthony Bourdain pho and filet garlic noodles and both had lots of flavor. I think the noodles were slightly too saucy for my taste but it was good! The green sauce it came with didn't feel like it went with the noodles BUT is realllllyyy good and seems like it'd go really well with a rice dish. Overall a good place to eat and I liked the quality of food and service overall. read more

I had not been to Sup in quite some time but wow it definitely was just as great as I remembered. We had the chicken wing fried rice which has so much flavor! I don't normally order fried rice, but the one here you can't skip! Something about the garlic flavor in it is so great. We also tried the pho which surprisingly comes with endless noodles. Lastly, the Filet Lomo Saltado fries are a must! These are kind of hard to find so I always love getting them. For drinks, I had the Vietnamese coffee which was actually really big! You can put your name on a waitlist ahead of time through Yelp, so I recommend doing this as there is almost always a wait! read more

Came on a Saturday at noon and the wait time was more than 90 minutes, so decided to come back earlier the next day and could immediately tell why the wait time is so long during peak hours. First the menu is simple, which makes ordering super easy since they only have a few signature dishes. They are known for their unlimited noodles for the pho dishes, and both the noodles and soup are exceptional. The lomo solato also highlight the fusion aspect of their menu. Everything was delicious, presented well and with large portions for incredible value. All of the staff are friendly and give a synchronous welcome chant for ever new customer. The interior is very clean and organized. read more

I've enjoyed the food here on previous visits, which is why this experience surprised me a bit. This time, I ordered the ribeye pho and my friend ordered the meatball pho. Both bowls seemed noticeably saltier than what I remembered. In fact, we both found ourselves constantly reaching for water throughout the meal. The ingredients were still good quality, and I generally like what Sup Noodle Bar does with its food, so I'm not sure if this was just an off day or if the recipe has changed. The broth still had depth and richness, but the saltiness overshadowed some of the other flavors. Because I've had better experiences here before, I am still giving it 4 stars and would likely return. I'm hoping this visit was simply an exception rather than the new normal. read more

I normally don't particularly like pho, it's my wife that makes me go. But the pho soup here is quite delicious! If I eat food I usually leave the bowl of soup, but pretty much finished this one! If you can't decide which one to get, I'd recommend the combination pho. The worst thing you can do is see other people's food and wish you got theirs. Well no more FOMO thanks to the combo pho! My only pet peeve is we have a family of 5, but the hostess sat us at 4 top and stuck on a chair at the end. It gets pretty crowded on the table when we have an extra set of plate, bowl, cup, silverware, etc, so we're a little cramped. I wouldn't have batted an eye, but we came at 11:15 and the restaurant was way less than half full. But it's not the first nor last time it'll happen, so I'm not knocking off any stars because of it. read more

Best Pho in Irvine area ! Another hit by the Kei Concepts team, Sup Noodle Bar provides hearty pho offerings as well as classics such as their garlic noodles and fried rice. There is generally a wait here, ranging from 20 minutes - 1 hour and a half on any given night so definitely plan in advance. Upon entering, you can expect to be tended to and your order taken relatively quickly. There are a lot of tables here to seat parties of various sizes. However, the noise is a little loud in here due to all the people that they can seat. I always get the combination pho shaken style here and it's definitely enough to fill me up. One thing to note about this place is that similar to its sister franchise (Kin Izakaya), they do unlimited noodle refills here! Definitely take advantage of that if you have the stomach for it. I've tried a wide variety of pho establishments all across OC and can confidently say that SUP Noodle Bar is my personal favorite in the Irvine area. Definitely recommend! read more

I have wanted to dine here for a long time. I used to work on weekends for a food delivery service and always had a ton of orders from here so I knew by the amount of food going out, the people waiting to get in and the absolutely amazing smells coming from the kitchen that it was amazing. So I finally had the time to take my son and his girlfriend and we were not disappointed. The place is small and quaint but that gives it a great home feel. We used the the Yelp app to check in (they do not take reservations) but always let you know u checked in and all of your parry is present. The Pho is to die for. Unlimited noodles so you can fill up your bowl and take the rest home. They have nice packing containers and it looked like everyone did the same thing. The service and prices were excellent. You can't go wrong. read more

I'm making it a personal goal when I visit the OC to go to all of the Kei Concepts restaurant and had to at least visit one on this last business trip I traveled for. Much like the other two locations I've visited, SUP did not disappoint at all! I love the variety the menu offered and options how you can further enhance your meal! My friend and I each ordered the special but also a bowl of pho so we could try more on the menu. We also did not anticipate such large bowls when we asked for 2 so we could more easily share our meals, but it was perfect. Where to even start with our meals? The beef belly dry noodles were delicious, a little tricky to mix but once it was, absolute perfection! Everything was so fresh and delicious. We were so happy and it could easily fill us both up. The Anthony Bourdain pho was perfection. The wok fried scallion oil was a Touch i would have never thought about until I came here. It really enhanced the overall flavor of the pho and meal! We picked up a a filet limo saltado and filet garlic noodle to go and if you love a good tender steak, definitely get either of these dishes. Tender, flavorful, perfect noodle and garlic flavor, it drooling thinking about it! I can't wait to come back and try the next restaurant by Kei Concepts!! I have never been disappointed, only disappointed I live too far away to make my visits a regular trip! read more

Can wait in line ahead of time on Yelp if you're nearby. You'll get called in when you're about third in line. They don't take cash. Noodles are very chewy and delicious, just the way I like it. They offer extra noodles in a non judgmental manner. They're actually very nice about it and you can actually order the extra noodles while you're planning your order. They currently have the beef belly pho lunch special Monday thru Friday 10-4 for 11.99 which is a great deal. The beef is very fatty and the broth is extremely oily though. The garlic fried chicken is very good, so crispy, fresh fried and garlicky. I love this place! read more

mixed feelings Came to the restaurant around 11:30 and it was super busy! The one hour wait time was intimidating, but it made me feel that our choice for brunch was safe. Restaurant is lively and the bar section was cool. First and foremost, appetizers were great! Truffle fries crispy and well seasoned, and the garlic chicken was fried exceptionally well. Here's the issue for me: the pho is NOT good. I ordered the Anthony bourdain and my partner got the dry noodles. Tons of noodles and the herbs were solid, but the meat was so small! Barely any pieces and I couldn't differentiate what each of them were. What more, the broth itself wasn't flavorful enough for me. Free noodle refills does not justify it enough for me. If I were to come back, I'd reorder my appetizers and try the garlic noodles instead maybe. But if you're here for a phenomenal pho experience, it is not my recommendation! read more

I walked into SUP Noodle Bar not entirely sure what to expect from a Vietnamese-Peruvian fusion spot, but I am so glad I checked it out! To get a taste of both worlds, I ordered the popular shrimp and sausage garlic noodles and the rib bone pho. The shrimp and sausage garlic noodles were garlicky greatness. It came with a side of aji sauce, but the noodles were already so loaded with flavor on their own that I didn't even think they needed it! As for the rib bone pho, it absolutely lived up to the menu description. The meat came clean off the bone. Usually, rib bone pho can skew a bit too heavy and fatty, but this broth was incredibly balanced. I actually found myself enjoying the natural flavor without immediately reaching for the hoisin sauce. Plus, a major bonus: they offer unlimited noodle refills! Service was fast, super friendly, and they checked in on us often. read more

Alright, they get five stars but to be honest the food is very mediocre. The reason I give them five stars is food their service. There was about a 30 minute wait, but you can get on the yelp waitlist! Okay so we all got different types of pho and I did not think that the pho broth was that good. My family did enjoy and tell me I was crazy though because they thought the broth was very flavorful. 3 against 1 so they win on that. They do unlimited refill on the noodles. I don't think I would purposefully stop by again but I wouldn't mind tagging along if someone wanted to come eat at SUP noodle bar. read more

SUP Noodle Bar (Irvine), 14370 Culver Drive, Unit 2H, Irvine, CA92604. Vietnamese, Peruvian, Asian Fusion cuisine. Mother's Day treat 4.3* rating out of 3,245 reviews (at the time of writing). Now I know why this place has high rating and the long line after trying it out for the first time. The restaurant looks small from the exterior, but it's actually extended to the back and quite spacious as you enter. Service was excellent, quick, friendly and welcoming. The Pho was excellent, the broth was rich and sweet. The portion of the noodle was just nice for 1-time serving. However, you can have as much noodle (not the broth) re-fills as you like. The beef very tender and melts in your mouth. Will be back to try the Peruvian food next time. read more

Three stars due to their customer service. Came for their beef belly pho special. Which is always good. But for some reason almost every visit their customer service is lacking.

Our friends took us here for lunch on a Thursday and wow, I could not believe the amount of people in line. Luckily our friend had put our name down quickly and we were seated upon the rest of our party's arrival within 15 ish minutes. Now that I've tried the food, felt the service, and enjoyed our meal, I can see why it has a line and a high star rating! The service: super friends and accommodating! The place itself is a small/medium size with lots of tables for seating multiple small/medium sizes of parties. We were a party of 5 (4 adults, one baby/toddler with a high chair). I loved how they accommodated my child with their children's menu in addition to providing us with scissors to cut up noodles. Upon stating our allergies, they helped us with food suggestions and limitations. It's honestly the little things that go above and beyond, as well as their friendly service. They weren't overtly checking up on us, and had just the right amount of interaction and help. Food: 3 of us got the beef belly pho and one got the beef rib, my son got a kids mean. Upon receiving our bowls you'd think by looking at the clarity of the broth that it wouldn't be super flavorful, but it absolutely was. It's not overpowering, but the right amount of savory with a hint of sweetness from the added o green onions. Each pho came with the garnishes of basil, lime, and bean sprouts as normal. We did have to ask for small side plates For those who wanted hoisin and sriracha on the side, but not a big deal and quick to get. I'm also a huge fan of the lychee lemonade at vox, which they had here. Not refillable, but still loved it! My son got their chicken nuggets with fries since the pho broth had some sesame oil which he's allergic to, but he loved it. It came in the cutest kid "happy meal" type of box and we used the scissors given to cut the nuggets and a few "washed" noodles. Overall, would love to come again for a great bowl of pho if the wait isn't too long! read more

SUP noodle bar has fantastic vietnamese fusion dishes! We stopped by on a busy Saturday afternoon and waited for about 20-30 minutes before being seated. Our server was super kind and attentive throughout our dining experience. Everything on the menu looked so delicious and unique so we ended up ordering a variety of dishes with a couple of standouts. Anthony Bourdain Pho: 5/5 This dish was easily one of the top highlights of our meal! The filet mignon was super tender, and the flat noodles had that perfect chewy, bouncy texture. The northern-style broth also really elevated the dish as it tasted rich, smoky, and was packed with flavor from the wok seared onions and garlic. This is definitely a must-order! Combination Pho Shaken Style: 5/5 The combination pho was super tasty! Similar to the Anthony Bourdain, the shaken style broth brought a nice northern twist to a classic pho order! The regular noodles tasted fresh and soft yet still slightly chewy, and the rib bone was so tender it fell off the bone easily. This is definitely a must order if you prefer traditional style pho. Lomo Saltado with Cajun Garlic Noodles: 4/5 I had some mixed feelings about this dish. The filet mignon cubes weren't as tender as expected and was slightly overcooked, but the dish still had some strong elements. The aji verde sauce paired really well with the crispy fries and was honestly one of the best parts of the dish! The garlic noodles however were a little disappointing. The Cajun seasoning unfortunately overpowered the fragrance of the garlic while somehow still lacking that savory depth. However, overall the lomo saltado itself was still beautifully seasoned with a nice tanginess that cuts through the smoky and umami taste. House Shaken Fries: 5/5 Yet another standout! The thin, crispy fries were drenched in a spicy tartar sauce reminiscent of the spread from in-n out, and it was topped with generous slices of beef belly that added a rich, fatty texture. Topped with caramelized onions, it really added a perfect sweetness to the dish while the sauce along with the cheese tied everything together without being too heavy. We honestly came for the pho but this dish absolutely stole the show. This is a must-order every time. SUP Noodle Bar absolutely lives up to the hype with their creative take on Vietnamese fusion. From the smoky Northern style broths to the bold and flavor-packed fusion dishes, every item feels thoughtfully executed. The lively atmosphere and great service made our dining experience even better. Will definitely be back to explore more of the menu and reorder our favorites! read more

My daughter insisted us to take her here for her bday so we had to oblige. This is her fav pho place and i was anxious to see why. The waitlist was already over an hour at 5:15! Def join the waitlist if you're within proximity. We been to most of K-concept's restaurants and the service and ambiance was def on par. Aside from not getting the text on time, things went smoothly. We got seated about 5 mins after we checked in initially. We order the Anthony Bourdain, brisket and short rib. All of them were good but the Anthony Bourdain easily stood above. The garlic flavor def was apparent but not overwhelming. The filet mignon was just right as it was nice and tender. Then to top if off, endless noodles servings made it perfect. Usually I can't drink the soup as it over seasoned but thats not the case here. One of the best pho's ever. read more
