Great service, and amazing food! The broth of my Brisket Pho was clear and so flavorful! The brisket pieces were plentiful and tender! Melted in my mouth! I love the vibe of this restaurant. It makes me miss Viet Nam! Love the motorbike in the front and pictures of daily life in Viet Nam on the walls! Will def return :) read more

I was coming here regularly only for their yummy Thai iced tea until I finally tried their food and I'm impressed! No wonder this place is so popular with the local community. My family and I loved their fried rice with beef (big portion), the shrimp and pork spring rolls and their beef banh mi sandwiches. We've also had their special almond cookies. The lady (owner?) who takes the orders & runs the cash register is always super welcoming and efficient. The two elderly gentlemen cooks consistently season and the food to perfection. read more

We love this neighborhood place. So happy that they survived Covid shutdowns. We order take out a few times a month. Tried and true favorites are the Taste of Pho and Taste of vermicelli. It's a smaller portion of each and perfect when you can't eat the full size alone and leftovers aren't as good the next day. Shrimp and pork spring rolls are always fresh and yummy. Fried egg rolls with lettuce to wrap. Shrimp and lotus salad is my go to. The bahn mi sandwiches for lunch if they aren't sold out are good too. We will continue to support this local, small business. read more

Decent place for a bowl of pho and the garlic green beans are a must try to share as an appetizer.

It had been several years since we have eaten at or ordered food from Benley, but we always remembered it as one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in our area. We ordered takeout of some of our favorite dishes and were disappointed. The food quality and recipes were not the same as we remembered. We presumed that Benley must have gone through some ownership or management changes causing the recipes to be changed. The chicken pho we ordered was beef pho when we dug in at home. The staff member's English skills were poor and either did not understand the telephone order, or could not be understood by me when they repeated the order. I really could not understand them at all. We will not be going back. read more

The unassuming place tugged in the corner of the mall. Thanks to Yelp, we would never found it. A nice bowl of noodles with tasty soup. The service was pleasant and efficient. It's small place so more like eat and run place but that's what we needed. read more

A small hidden gem truly, I didn't even knew this place existed until my friend took me here for lunch. We ordered Panko covered shrimps, rare steak pho, green beans and veggie egg rolls.. everything was just phenomenal in taste, looks.. I was a bit too hungry I forgot to take pictures but definitely going back to get some more and then will take pictures. If you haven't tried this place you all definitely should. The service was great too. read more

Great lunch specials! I've been craving this place all week. I don't live nearby anymore so I really planned my day around having lunch here! The tempura green beans are amazing! The lunch specials have so many different options and are so good. I usually get the shrimp pho and the sandwich. I enjoy the tofu, lemongrass pork or chicken. Today I got the half order of green beans, lemongrass pork banh mi with the shrimp vermicelli noodles and salad. I add Extra veggies, cilantro, and jalapeno to the sandwich. Squeeze lime over EVERYTHING... SO FRESH! MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. We brought a table and chairs to stay out in the parking lot. There is plenty of shade to enjoy outdoor dining. The restaurant did pull out a few tables and chairs as parties one to sit down and enjoy their food too. read more

We came here in the mood for some pho because none of our usual places were open. We placed our order over the phone for take out and it was ready promptly. They had vegan options so we opted for the vegan pho. The broth was nothing special and tasted just like plain veggie broth from a box and not like a typical pho broth. Overall, I found it to be plain and it didn't really satisfy my craving for some pho. I wasn't too impressed with the food and didn't find it worth the price. I don't think this is a place I would come back to read more

Great food, service and ambience. Plenty of free parking. Cannot ask for more. It's one of my favorite restaurants.

First time coming here per a friend's recommendation and was very pleased! It is a small restaurant, but we got there at the right time and snagged a table. They do pickup orders as well, which we noticed many people do. Definitely seems like the local go to spot as the server knew many of the customers. Our server was amazing and so fast! She was covering all the tables and taking phone orders and checking out pickup orders. I don't know how she did it but she was on top of it. She promptly took our order and our food came very quickly. I got the shrimp pho and then we got the fried green beans to share. I personally don't like green beans but these were so good! Their servings are big. I got the small pho and couldn't finish it. Definitely will be going again. Wish I remembered our servers name... she had long dirty blonde hair and was so sweet! read more

Egg rolls and shrimp pho FOR THE WIN !!!. Cooked to order . Not too much basil ! Customer service is great as well

I go to Benley for their soup Pho with 1/2 sandwich and an order of chai goi or sprng rolls with sausage- mot the shrimp

Grew up eating home-cooked Viet food, so I've got high standards. It makes me a tough critic for this cuisine (some places really mess it up). However, I had to give a shout out to Benley for its variety and execution of Viet food! There are actually Vietnamese cooks in the kitchen, so you can sense it's legit. There are both fusion and authentic options on the menu. Here's a rundown of the dishes we ordered: Viet iced coffee & thai tea: Refreshing and wakes you up! Spicy green beans: BOMB. Super crispy batter with a hint of health in the core lol. Was sweet rather than spicy, but I didn't mind Lemongrass charred spring rolls: Great flavoring of the meat, fresh veggies, and peanut sauce/fish sauce (nuoc mam). I prefer the latter since it's a classic Viet dipping sauce Pan seared salmon: Seasoned well with a cilantro aioli sauce on the side Filet & potatoes: Similar to the Viet dish "bo luc lac" but with potatoes and veggies Chicken curry: Coconut base and very flavorful. Loved dipping my bread Banh xeo: My favorite! It's pretty much a Viet pancake with meat, shrimp, and bean sprouts that you wrap with veggies. Cassava cake: MUST TRY!! One order comes with 3 slices too! It's not your typical cake texture, so it's hard to describe. Just get it, trust me. They also have wine and beer, so could be a nice dinner date choice! Overall, the service was quick and friendly, and the interior of the restaurant was clean. Reasonable pricing and lots of parking spaces. If you don't want to go to Westminster/Garden Grove/Fountain Valley area, this is a great Viet spot in Long Beach! read more

Awesome and authentic Pho with great vegetarian options. Absolutely love their lunch special which includes bhan Mi and Pho or vermicelli options. I eat here every couple of weeks and it never disappoints! read more

I decided to give this place a try because the reviews looked pretty good. I probably would've never found this place if I wasn't dropping off used clothes at Goodwill. It's located in a pretty dead shopping center which has Dollar Tree and abandoned TJ Maxx. I came on a weekday afternoon and the place was pretty packed so I figured it would be pretty good. Well, it was just ok. I guess I should've expected this given I was about the only Asian person eating here. The owners are Vietnamese but the pho tasted rather westernized. The noodles were pretty good but the broth didn't have much flavor. It was very clear with very little oil. It just didn't have that rich aroma I'm used to at other Vietnamese restaurants. I only tried one item so this may not be a fair review, but pho is a pretty standard item at Vietnamese restaurants so I'm not sure what else I need to try here. The price was close to $10, which is kind of high for pho, so I'm not too motivated to return here. read more

This place is amazing: they have couple of vegan/vegetarian menu, with the addition of fake meat (for extra proteins). I only ordered soft tofu and tomato confit, result is amazing taste of sweet flavor of tomato that pairs well with the tofu. I appreciate Briana for letting me know which dish is vegan/vegetarian, since I don't eat meat. Will come back here next time to try other dish. read more

Total hidden gem. I yelped this place for some quick dinner before heading back to work. It was a bit hard to find because it's hidden in a corner of a shopping mall. The restaurant is pretty small and the place was packed on Friday night. Mostly Western customers. They offered me a seat at the counter since the wait was about 15 minutes for a table. Taste was decent. I like my broth a bit more savory, but presentation was clean. Not too crazy about the taste. I would suggest some work with the flavor, but I think it satisfies the masses, which is more Western. The place was so crowded, they shut down their phone during their busier hours. Business is booming here. Customer service was great. Attentive and sweet. Wouldn't fight to come back, but it's a great place. read more

Benley Vietnamese Kitchen - Pho with brisket - Vietnamese Near Me - Long Beach, California

At first from the outside this place doesn't look like much but once you go inside and try their food you realize how good they are! I've gone here several times especially to get my Vietnamese coffee fix. I'm from The SD area and have many Vietnamese friends so I've tried authentic Pho that their mom has made and I have to say this was the closest I can get to that taste in this area. Personally for me it was a little bit over price for the portion size, i'm used to paying about $10 and receiving almost twice the amount, but, the pho it still really good and why I keep coming back! read more

It's been almost 10 years (?) since I first came here. I use to come here all the time as it was a good half way point between LA and OC. Even though the address says Long Beach it's actually around the corner from Los Alamitos, just fyi. Also, please don't expect the pricing to be like you would expect from Little Saigon. To start the menu is very simple, but very good. It's hidden inside a strip mall, ALL way in the back. I've had just about everything on the menu. My favorites are: Taste of Pho with Meatballs : 5/5 (If you don't specify that you want the Taste of Pho, you will get the bigger bowl which I think is too much.) Shaken Beef with Rice: 4/5 Lemongrass Spring Rolls: 5/5. Delicious! Taste of Vermicelli with Egg rolls: 4/5 Casava Cake: 6/5!! I grew up with cassava cake, but have never seen it served in a restaurant until I came here. And they serve it with condensed milk - such a treat! ----- This time I also tried their banana bread pudding and panna cotta. Both were very good!! And I also got a glass of Rose just for sweets and giggles and it was surprisingly good! Cheers! read more

I found a new favorite for banh xeo. I've gone here my last two trips to the area, because they're that good. The difference is the marinated veggies along with the pork belly. The appetizers are good too, but I should really try other menu items, but where I come from, Vietnamese food is rare much less banh xeo! The place is small and intimate, and the service is always great. read more

Love this place! I usually get the vegan pho and Bahn mi lunch combo and it is so good!

Congratulations u r the best now! We went again to ur restaurant it was all great food are delicious & service excellent! I am trying to send some friends there to get ur delicious cuisine!.. Thank you for great food! We seen ur The Best Winners choice!! read more

Honestly... one of the better meals i've had in a while. Everything had great flavors - (I'm vegan) so their "fake meat" was really really good. Everything was cooked perfectly and the fried green beans are my new favorite food. Super fast and friendly service too :) Will be back soon. My friend had the pork / vermicelli noodles meal and she loved her dish too. read more

Watch for SCAM and FRAUD. My family and I have been going here for years. No more. On a recent bill, they unilaterally increased the total amount and added extra tip for their benefit. I always keep my receipts and copy the amount I pay so no error here. Just plain fraud. Be aware. Keep your receipts and watch your credit card charges with this place. read more

I ordered the vegetarian Banh Minh on Saturday...to go. I got it home and it was delish - it was refreshing for a warm day. Net time, I'll ask for jalepeno's or something spicy. I will definitely order this again. read more

Amazing experience!! Our server was serving the ENTIRE restaurant by herself during a busy lunch rush and deliver such great and friendly service to us and everyone there! They have the best vegetable egg rolls and portions are very generous! We ordered the lunch special with pho + 1/2 a banh mi and there was plenty of leftovers for us to take home! The banh mi and pho were both so delicious too :) read more

I had a craving for pho and was in Long Beach so this was the only restaurant within close proximity. I ordered the pho ga (chicken) and my kid had the pho tai (beef). Service was pretty good and the food came out within 10 minutes. My pho ga was just okay, kind of lacking in flavor. The pho tai was okay as well. I wish the broth had more flavor as I had to add a ton of hot sauce to give it some spunk. In terms of pricing, it was about $10 each so kind of expensive for what it was. But, you know, can't really complain. 3/5 stars. It's fine for a quick pho craving if you're in the area. read more

I ordered the beef Pho and it was a total rip off! They gave me 6 smallllll slivers of beef and a huge chunk of noodles.

Small cozy restaurant. They greet you with a smile and you feel appreciated from the start. We ordered bahm mi sandwiches, the pork rice vermicelli and egg rolls. While we waited for our food, she served us the egg rolls. They were so yummy and packed with flavor. I normally veer away from ordering egg rolls over pork rolls because the first is normally not great. But they were, in-fact, great! Everything tasted fresh. We will definitely be back for a dine experience to try other dishes. read more

Just ordered pho to go. Came with no veggies/sprouts or any sauces at all. I called them immediately, there was no offer for refund, or at least a discount for next purchase. I live too far to drive back for veggies. They didn't care much at all. Food Mediocre at best. Won't be back. read more
