My partner and I stopped here by quick chance after such a hard hike near the area. This was such a pleasant surprise. Authentic Vietnamese food. We started off with spring rolls the tofu combination was my favorite over chicken and veggie, pair it with the peanut sauce for a lovely pairing. I hate filet mignon and the cut was beautiful! The flavor was there, the right tenderness, flavor, top tier. Kudos to the chef!!! My partner grabbed the Lemongrass chicken with vermicelli noodles and it was so delicious. No wonder it's such a popular dish. There were other items I wanted to try- specifically the pho tacos but I'll come back again. The restaurant was clean and slow paced and top tier service. read more

Upon walking in, the place had a nice lemongrass smell. I was looking forward to trying their food. Service was ok. My friend got brisket pho and my other friend had a kid pho, and shrimp rice which isn't shown in picture. I ordered the lemon grass chicken vermicelli noodle. When I receive my food, I notice a lot of gnats was flying around. My lemon grass vermicelli noodles just didn't look appetizing, the chicken tasted alright. I ordered an egg roll as well, and I asked for pork since my option was either tofu or pork. The egg roll tasted like veggie tofu. I wanted to not be biased and give this place a try since my friend always goes here. But after eating here, I was was not too happy. The food was ok, I give a 3.5/5 rating. I've had better pho restaurants that is more seasoned than this. The fish sauce that came w my dish didn't even look like fish sauce. It's not the usual Vietnamese "Nuoc mam" that I get. If you like basic pho, than this is the place for you. If you want good authentic pho this is not the place. I came home and ate my beef stew pho that I made because I was that disappointed and not satisfied. This place definitely missing that authentic Vietnamese food. read more

The last time I've been here was about three years ago and I'm hoping it's changed since it's been quite a while. Food is a shade on the pricey side of things but the bahn mi and pho are assuredly gourmet compared with other Vietnamese joints I have searched out throughout the San Gabriel Valley. My problem was with the rude server and kitchen staff that audibly and perhaps (intentionally) made just-as-rude jokes behind our backs, taking away from the intimate conversation with my friend and her husband. Definitely not a home-away-from-home kinda ambience. I'll keep my hopes up that it's changed. I don't know. I haven't been back since. Should it not be misread, the food is superb. The service leaved much to be desired. Maybe I'll come back soon once the workers here have attained a few more years of puberty. read more

Visited Chateau Lemongrass for a late lunch on a Sunday. The small place wasn't very busy and there was plenty of street parking. Their pho menu is small with few options if you're visiting for pho. I enjoyed their beef pho. The service was very friendly and quick. read more

The tofu dishes are fantastic. My favorite being the spring rolls and vermicelli. The citrus sauce is light and pairs perfectly with the dishes. Staff is very friendly but I only order takeout so I can old speak for brief experiences. The lemonade soda is also refreshing and not overly sweet. Street parking in the area can be difficult, especially on weekends. There are residential streets behind the restaurant but you may need to walk. read more

Excellent Vietnamese restaurant. Great flavors and generous portions. They will even split a pho for you to share. Only a short 10-minute drive from downtown Pasadena, Eagle Rock and Highland Park are often overlooked by foodies. Next time will try nearby Taiwanese shaved ice. read more

Cute little Vietnamese place in Eagle Rock with great food. Very clean and modern inside. It's casual but still nice. Parking is a little tricky but honestly this area is always like that. I enjoyed that I got to do a sampler for the spring rolls (the shredded chicken and grilled pork were my favs!) and when I told the staff we were splitting the pho they immediately told me they could put it in two separate bowls. I thought the customer service was excellent. The pho was rich and I ate every bite. Very decent option if you're in the area looking for a place. read more

Food was delicious and offered a great take on modern Vietnamese cuisine. While the pear salad wasn't quite my favorite, everything else we tried was full of flavor and thoughtfully prepared. Shout out to our gracious host and server, Charlene--she was absolutely delightful and made the experience even better. Would definitely come back to try more of the menu. BB read more

Chateau Lemongrass - Menu - Vietnamese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Craving pho and decided to go gets - haven't been for years and it's still really good. Neighborhood spot that's been around for awhile. You can tell they have regulars (dine in and for pickup) because they knew what to order without having to look at a menu. Prices and portions are on point. I love ordering a side plate of onions with my Pho, a must try if you haven't already. My mom loved the chicken curry - tasted a little like panang curry, not Indian curry for those who are curious. Only wish was that they served ice cream with their fried banana dessert. Great customer service - 9 out of 10 for me. Enjoy! read more

Chateau Lemongrass is a local hotspot for Vietnamese food that hits the spot every time. Food: Pho broth is steaming hot and packed with flavor every time. Goo Shaken Beef was 10/10, great portions of meat, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Chicken Wings are exactly what you would hope for in an appetizer to kick off your meal Porkchops are probably my favorite thing I've had so far! Service/Ambiance: Always phenomenal and friendly. Staff is attentive to the needs of customers and give off a family vibe. Lots of regulars and locals seem to frequent this spot! If I worked nearby I'd stop by every time for an afternoon lunch or a post work meal. read more

This is by far my favorite Vietnamese restaurant. I'm a big fan of their pho broth! There something different about it! It taste really authentic packed with flavor! The great thing about this place is I live right down the street! Their chicken wings are amazing, I suggest getting rice with that! The house fried rice is to die for! And the pork chop is always great and flavorful! I usually just come here for the well done beef brisket pho extra noodz! You can't beat it! They got their pho recipe down to a T! If you ever find yourself in the area stop by!!! Service is great! :) and the ambiance is amazing, I really like the modern decor and the music they play! It gets busy at night so make sure you arrive early if you want to try their food. read more

Came here with a friend last week. Our regular spot was closed so we thought to try this place out and well this will be our new regular spot! The broth was sooo good, service was 10/10. The man standing behind the counter welcomed us in and the lady taking our order was super sweet. read more

Found another gem! Had a taste for pho and my friend suggested this spot. It's small and intimate with metropolitan decor. It's was fairly early in the evening so we were able to get a table right away. Very simple menu (which I love). Sometime restaurants offer too many things and it's hard to choose. I ordered the pho with chicken (which is shredded) I added veggies as well. There's both was so delicious. Just what I was craving. I also order a jasmine tea that had leechee fruit. Soooo delicious. My bestie and I left satisfied and stuffed. We will definitely be back. P.S. Thanks for saving and returning my sunglasses I left! read more

Chateau Lemongrass is a busy Vietnamese spot located in the heart of Eagle Rock. We ordered takeout on a busy Memorial Day weekend. We got the garlic noodles with shrimp ($14.50), the highlight of the evening, a super savory garlic kick with a generous supply of fried shrimp, a scrumptious steamed fish filet ($14), an unremarkable chicken pho ($13.50), a good Asian pear salad ($13.50), and a small, but decent Banh-Mi sandwich ($14) "dip" that could have benefitted from more meat and sauce. The steamed fish filet and garlic noodles w shrimp were the winners here - make sure you check them out! The service was very friendly and warm, and the restaurant was clean, modern, but somewhat plain. Never a problem - let the food do the talking. Our large-ish order was ready 20 minutes after ordering, despite being fairly crowded. Impressive haste. The greatest strength of the Chateau, of course, is value. The prices were very reasonable for the quantity of food provided. Perfect for takeout or an easy, weeknight meal. Take a stroll to the local castle - you won't be disappointed.

Some friends who go to school nearby recommended Chateau lemongrass for cheap, good Vietnamese food. We made reservations, which was helpful since there's not much seating inside. I got the kids pho and pho tacos. The kids pho was exactly what it said in the menu. It was super plain, but it paired well with my pho tacos. The pho tacos were delicious! It does come with the sriracha on top, but I wish that was on the side. You have to find street parking, so we ended up parking a couple blocks away. read more

Food quality: 3/5 Presentation: 4/5 Attention to detail: 2/5 Service: 3/5 Vibes: Empty but the art is nice! Value: 4/5 Times been: 1 Return? No The saving grace for this restaurant for me was the pho tacos AND the fact that my GF thought the value was so good. However, the pho is extremely dissapointing. I feel like anyone who has eaten a lot of pho will find this pho easily below average. I think that because the broth was very clear and tasteless, making me wonder if they even made it themselves. My GF really liked the fried rice, but I thought it was just okay. There was not really too much going on with it, but it was definitely reasonably priced. It also took forever to get the food considering that we were the only people there. Overall, not worth trying unless you are really craving Vietnamese food and are in this area. read more

First time here. What a great place to have in Eagle Rock! Cold night means some pho to warm up. Modern decore with Vietnamese artwork to remind you of the meal you're about to have. Oof course the filet mignon pho was on order as well as the calamari, steamed fish and spring rolls (ordered after we started eating our entree. Calamari was a bit chewy and not that all crunchy. Spring rolls were good but the peanut sauce needed to be a bit thicker with more peanuts blended in. Pho hit the spot. The filet mignon and pho noodles were good - probably can have filet in the soup. Steamed fish filet was less in size than I thought. It's steamed in banana leaf with mushroom and maybe leek? Whatever it was I really enjoyed. The Fish disappeared in a flash. There's wasn't much fish in the leaf something to consider if you're very hungry. Staff are nice. Parking out front on the street and side streets. read more

Best place to go for pho on cloudy days (and sunny days). Passion fruit green tea is so refreshing. Would love to give 20 stars! read more

I love pho. I'm writing this after finishing my bowl in 3 mins. I cannot understand this measly portioning they do for the noodles. I could pick up all the noodles in one swoop, it's that little. It's just saddening. I finished all the noodles in 7 1/2 bites. Yes, I counted. I normally can't finish a whole bowl of pho, so this says so much. It's almost greedy... Broth is nothing to write home about. There's no spices or depth I can distinguish. The filet mignon isn't anything special. A sad bowl. Regardless, service is decent read more

A solid 4 star that fulfilled my Vietnamese craving! I was driving in the area when spotted this restaurant from afar, and I looked forward to trying it after my morning shift at work. Parking was a little hard to find, but I got lucky with side street parking and it was a short walk from the car. The exterior is inviting with several chairs and tables outside, and the doors were open to make it feel welcoming. I was told to sit anywhere I like, so I took the small table by the window as it was only a table of 1 :) Service was friendly and prompt - no complaints there! I ordered the shrimp spring rolls, which I was slightly disappointed in. It was lacking that crunchy bit in the middle that makes these spring rolls so satisfying. The flavors were still good and the ingredients tasted fresh. I'm also allergic to peanuts, so I had a side of house sauce, which was delicious. Now, I'm not Vietnamese nor did I grow up with Vietnamese food. I'm actually a bit of a new pho-eater, so I'm still learning what I like, but this pho was GOOD! I can't quite say what authentic Vietnamese food is supposed to taste like, but from what I know so far and from what I've liked in the past, I really enjoyed this pho. It has beautifully blended flavors and was light in the taste. It was very satisfying and I didn't feel overstuffed. The Vietnamese lemonade was so refreshing - I recommend this! Overall, I was quite happy here. Will try to come back if I'm back in the area! read more

We usually stick to pho spots closer to home, but decided to venture out a bit since this place stays open later -- and we're so glad we did! The service was welcoming and friendly from the moment we walked in. Even though it was getting close to closing time, we never felt rushed. We ordered the shrimp and filet mignon pho, along with the fried tofu spring rolls -- everything was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. read more

Where do I even begin? This place has been slipping for a while, and somehow each visit gets worse than the last. This time officially did it for me. -Took 10+ minutes just to be acknowledged and get menus. -Another 10 minutes before anyone bothered to take our order. -Drinks took forever. -Appetizer showed up after about 20 minutes. -And the pho? A full 40 minutes later. Our waiter (a young guy) basically forgot we existed, so I had to walk up to the woman behind the counter myself. I asked if waiting 40+ minutes for pho was normal. She said no, went to check, and came back with the classic "we're busy" excuse. Funny, because multiple tables seated well after us got their food in under 10 minutes. So clearly, the kitchen CAN move fast... just not when it comes to our table. The fastest service of the night? The bill arrived in about 10 seconds. Of course. Then they took the card and vanished for another 10 minutes like it was part of the full "ignore the customer" experience. And when the pho finally arrived? Hardly any noodles. I'm not exaggerating.. maybe five spoonfuls. At that point it felt less like dinner and more like a SAMPLE. Slow service, weak portions, and we left still hungry and annoyed. At this rate, the only thing consistent about this place is the disappointment. read more

I'm going to be nice and give this place a 3.5. Only because the servers were nice in the beginning but even then, they hardly made an effort to check in on us and only went to our table when we asked for the bill at the end. Come here if you want aesthetic food visuals, don't come here if you're not willing to pay over $65 for 2 bowls of pho, spring rolls, 2 tacos, and some tea. The food was kinda mid. I've been to better tasting Pho restaurants on Bolsa Ave in OC. I ordered the meatball pho and I swear the pieces were about the size of a quarter. What's up with that We asked for extra bean sprouts and jalapeño and it was $1 extra for more soup vegetables. Also no refill for the tea just water your second time around. Now that's just being stingy lol. I know it's not the server's fault but they should really change their food policies. I don't know if I'd come back here again but I guess the ambiance and atmosphere were chill. read more
