First time visiting today, and we had such a pleasant experience!…read more We were able to try a few items from the menu, including the shrimp spring rolls, Luna rice cakes with shrimp, and the shaken beef with garlic noodles. One thing that really stood out was our server's attentiveness. He mentioned that the sauce served with the shrimp spring rolls contained pork after learning about my dietary restriction. He kindly brought the regular sauce for my mom to enjoy while also bringing me several different sauces to try with my spring rolls. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made me feel genuinely welcomed and valued as a customer. He also personally recommended the Luna rice cakes, and I'm so glad we took his suggestion because they were delicious! The dish included seven rice cakes with an assortment of Asian vegetables, and the flavors were excellent. Our final dish was the shaken beef with garlic noodles, featuring tender filet mignon, mushrooms, and onions. Everything was cooked perfectly. The beef was incredibly tender, and the garlic noodles were flavorful without being overly oily. Needless to say, I'll definitely be back. It's absolutely worth the drive, and my mom agreed. She's already talking about coming back with the rest of our family!

The food came out at different times, and my family was waiting almost 10min before we all got our meals together. They served the first plate, with no updates on when everyone else's food would be out. The Shaken Beef is a little dry and very oily, but the flavors were decent and the rice and salad are great. The portions for everything skim on the proteins, mainly serving onions to make the meals look bigger. The Goi Cuon was okay, nothing crazy and always a staple. It's not justifiable to eat here at this price, because the quality isn't upscale. I think we're better off eating at other places in Westminster.

Be prepared: this place is incredibly popular, especially during peak hours. Parking can definitely be challenging because of how busy it is. The last time I visited on a Monday, the lot was completely full, and I ended up parking on the street. The restaurant is also primarily cash only, so come prepared. They open early, making it a perfect breakfast spot for an early bowl of pho. The pho broth is exactly what I want when I'm craving comfort food--clean, flavorful, and incredibly soothing. However, the star of the meal for me was the chả giò. Wow. Although they arrived after our pho, they came out at the perfect temperature. I was hesitant to take a bite right away because freshly fried food usually burns my mouth, but these were just right. Crispy, airy, savory, and absolutely delicious. Paired with their fish sauce, it was perfection. I enjoyed the egg rolls so much that next time I'm definitely ordering the egg roll vermicelli bowl. Service was friendly and prompt despite how busy it was, and it's clear the staff works hard to keep things moving. One thing I love is seeing all of the awards and accolades displayed on the walls. Phở 79 received the prestigious James Beard America's Classics Award, and it's easy to understand why after one meal here. This restaurant is truly an Orange County icon. The restaurant will soon be moving to a new location, as signs throughout the restaurant announce the upcoming move. While I'll miss the original spot, I'm excited for the new space--hopefully with more parking! Some places are worth the wait, and Phở 79 is absolutely one of them.

One of my favorite Vietnamese seafood restaurants in the area. If you like anything and everything…read moreshellfish (claims, scallops, escargot, etc), then this is the place for you! Have been to this restaurant many times, and food is always consistent! Came visit to the restaurant last week, and ordered my favorite Grilled Escargot with Garlic Butter and Peppercorn, Grilled Scallops with Cheese, and my all-time favorite Chilean Sea Bass hot pot! The grilled escargots are a must-have when visiting this place! These are perfectly grilled with rich garlic butter for sweetness, and with a slight kick of spiciness from the peppercorn. Don't forget to also dip the escargot meat with black pepper and a few squeeze of fresh lime juice! If you like melted cheese, then the grilled scallops with cheese would be the perfect match. Each scallop is covered melted cheese and comes sizzling on a hot plate when ordered! Last but certainly not least, my favorite dish of this restaurant is the Chilean Sea Bass hot pot. The order comes with your own tabletop gas stove, along with a hot pot filled with a tom yum like sour soup base. For ingredients, it also includes a plate with slices of pineapple, quarter cut fresh tomato slices, fresh bean sprouts, rice noodles, and a full plate of large pieces of Chilean Sea Bass. Just put all the ingredients in the hot pot and let it cook for 5-10mins on high, I promise you it is one of the best soups you will ever have! Service is good as always. This place always seems to be busy, so you may have to be on the waitlist during certain business hours (eg holidays, prime dinner time, etc). Parking wise, the restaurant is located in a busy plaza, and so you may have to drive around a few times before finding an open spot. However as I said earlier, it's worth the wait. Highly recommended.

This Vietnamese fusion seafood restaurant specializes in fresh seafood and hot pots. We started with the razor clams, which were the standout of the meal. They were incredibly flavorful and paired with a delicious sauce that had us wanting every last bite. The spicy scallops were another solid choice with just the right amount of heat. The escargot was a little chewy, but the savory sauce made up for it. For our main dishes, we ordered the Tom Yum seafood hot pot, which was just okay. We also had the deep-fried tilapia, which was cooked perfectly--crispy on the outside. It's hard to go wrong with anything deep-fried here. Overall, the razor clams and deep-fried tilapia were the highlights of our meal. If you're willing to wait for a table, this is a good spot for fresh seafood with a few standout dishe

Parking was a bit of a challenge since the lot is small, but some of us were able to find parking in adjacent lots or on the street. Once you walk in, there's seating along the edges and a counter where you place your order. It's a very small and cozy spot. Once you order, the cooks call your number when your food is ready. I went for the garlic noodles with bulgogi. You also have the option to add Parmesan cheese for free, which was cool! The flavor was very garlicky, as advertised, but not too overpowering. The sauce they give on the side has quite a kick, so I'd be cautious if you're sensitive to spice. I loved the variety on the menu and was pleasantly surprised to see a bit of Korean fusion in some of the dishes. Everyone enjoyed their meal and had a great time. I'd come back! :-)

It took around ~30 mins for our mango sticky rice to come out near the end. The rolls are amazing and my favorite were the grilled pork rolls! We also got the shrimp and pork rolls and the sauce with those were delicious For entree we ordered the beef with garlic noodles and that was the BEST garlic noodles I've ever had. The sauce was so good and the beef was tender! I would come back just for this dish. For dessert we ordered mango sticky rice. Although this took a while to come out, it was still delicious. I personally prefer a thicker coconut sauce and this was more on the runny side. Overall good experience and I think we just happened to come when they are a bit short staffed. I would come back again!

The restaurant was nearly empty for a Friday mid-afternoon, so service was very quick. The menu has a lot of items, so as a first timer here it took me a while to decide on what I wanted to get! What we got: -$7 Salmon belly roll: this dish stood out the most to me with the piping hot, glistening, crispy salmon skin. I loved the crunch when biting into the roll! The fresh veggies helped balance the flavors as well. The portion was very small though- only two rolls! -$16 Garlic noodles: delicious and garlicky, but very oily. The shrimp were big, but slightly overcooked, so they were dry. -$15 Bo ne: a childhood classic! Dip the banh mi in the egg, or layer on a bit of everything in the banh mi for a hearty bite. The steak was juicy and easy to cut. I liked the spicy links which added more flavor to the meal. Overall, I enjoyed each dish. The flavors are all very familiar with what I ate growing up. Parking is very easy as well since the restaurant is in a huge plaza.
