    Side of Rare Beef. I added the Hoisin sauce.
    Greg F.

    YOUR NEW FAVORITE PHO RESTAURANT! Fontana Pho has been around for as long as I can remember, so far about 10 years (or more). They have gone through some positive changes through this time, and because of that, Fontana Pho is my new favorite. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have updated their interior since I have last been here. It is very nice! Much nicer than the Pho Ha in the Aldi's shopping center[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The workers here are quick and efficient in taking and serving orders. They speak and understand good English. I do not feel like I have to speak Vietnamese to get good service here nor do I worry about requests getting "lost in translation." Moreover, the Pho is just hands down FABULOUS! I'm certain their other dishes are just as great, yet I usually only get the pho. If you happen to stop by for Pho, get it with some extra rare beef on the side.

    Pay cash receive 5% off the bill . Stop in as usual after one of my Kaiser hospital visits. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Noticed they made some changes to their interior seatings. I like what I see . Booths style with black / blue bench seatings and still have individual chairs / tables section as well[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I was greeted right away at the door by a young lady named Jessica , welcoming me in and asked what she can help me with . I Stop at the register to order beef fried rice for take out . Also noticed they added three new items to their menu . Fried crispy tofu , calamari and beef bahn mi ( sandwich) It is quite a wait for my take out order , understandably during their lunch hour rush . Price keeps increasing but the portions seems smaller ;(

    Food 5/5 I ordered the Pho with rare beef (P.9 Pho Tai) and it was delicious and super flavorful! I especially loved that they provided plenty of lime; it's my favorite and added the perfect touch. Customer Service 5/5 I've been visiting this location for years and have never had a bad customer service experience. The staff is always super friendly and welcoming, making each visit enjoyable. Ambience 5/5 [[HIGHLIGHT]]I really enjoy the ambience of this restaurant and visiting this location with friends, because of the spacious layout and plentiful seating. It makes it feel open and comfortable, perfect for a relaxed dining experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Cleanliness 4/5 [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cleanliness-wise, I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5 -- the dining area was pretty tidy, nothing too bad that would keep me from coming back.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wait Time 5/5 One of the best parts of my visit was that there was absolutely no wait time--I walked in and was seated right away, which is a rare treat these days, especially because it is a busy area. It made the whole dining experience feel relaxed and stress-free. Cost 5/5 I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and service offered at such an affordable cost. In a time when prices seem to be rising everywhere, finding something that balances low cost with reliability is a rare gem. Drinks 5/5 I've always enjoyed the Thai Tea . The Thai Tea here is absolutely amazing! I'll definitely be grabbing one every time I eat here.

    Still the best in Fontana! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly service and clean establishment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]... love you Fontana pho!

    Food was good! I did get the rare red meat pho, I got the size regular. They definitely do portion control and measure as I only had 4-5 pieces of meat. Really good taste though. THAI TEA 10/10!!! They can improve service, it is really traditional. You write your name on a paper and wait till your name is called to dine in. They were understaffed the day I went in, 30 minute wait for 2 people....

    I have always wanted to try pho. My boyfriend finally took me to have some. This is the spot for him. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, clean and simple.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We arrived at 6. There a few people in the restaurant. We were quickly seated by the server and given menus. I took my time to look through the menu. My boyfriend got the seafood pho. Everything few seconds, a different server were asked if we were ready to order. I started giggling when the sever came up to ask again. She said oh it's ok if you're not ready yet. I decided I was, so they wouldn't keep coming up to the table. It was a bit annoying. I got the rare beef pho. I thought our food would take a while, but we were served in less than 5 minutes. I was surprised. My boyfriend added the seasonings and herbs to our bowls and we started eating. Truly delicious! I savored every bite. It was a generous serving. It did not disappoint. My boyfriend and I finished up our bowls. We ended up paying $31, which is a fair price point. We would definitely come back. Thank you!

    Oil

    Wow. First time trying, was so excited because of good reviews. I literally just came home with 5 pho soups and 2 are inedible. We found it weird that the broth was bubbling so much once we reheated, come to see Both containers have a layer of pure oil. So disappointed. Egg rolls were delicious though .

    Bone broth

    This place is really good recommend bone broth won't regret it Very healthy and tasty , customer service is always great

    P19, Pho with Charbroiled Chicken
    Lena M.

    The food is delicious! I have been here several times with friends, and the noodles are always really yummy. The wait staff is very attentive and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place has an overall laid-back atmosphere and is a great place for a casual lunch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Portions are also HUGE, and you will definitely leave satisfied! [[HIGHLIGHT]]My only complaint was that the tabletop condiments were a bit sticky--the Sriracha sauce and chili oil pots had finger prints and dried sauce on them.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tables and restaurant were clean, other than that.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    The thing that immediately caught my attention? FREE noodle refills on all large pho soups!…read more I ordered the Chicken Pho and Shrimp Pho, and both had a flavorful, comforting broth that really hit the spot. The broth had great depth of flavor without being too heavy, making it perfect for sipping between bites. Of course, pho isn't complete without appetizers! I had to get the egg rolls and spring rolls. Egg Rolls: So flavorful with the perfect light crunch. Honestly, I always have to order egg rolls with pho because it's just the perfect combo. Spring Rolls: Fresh, delicious, and paired perfectly with the peanut sauce. The ingredients tasted fresh and the sauce added the perfect creamy, nutty finish. As for those free noodle refills, I actually didn't end up needing them! They give you a generous amount of noodles to begin with, so I was completely satisfied with my bowl. For dessert, I treated myself to a Vietnamese Iced Coffee with Ube Cold Foam. Vietnamese coffee is always one of my favorites because it's strong, rich, and sweet all at the same time. The ube cold foam was such a fun addition and complemented the coffee perfectly. Beyond the food, I absolutely loved the atmosphere. The restaurant is beautiful with lots of greenery, creating a relaxing and inviting ambiance. The staff was also incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Overall: 10/10 experience! Great food, beautiful space, friendly service, and those free noodle refills are such a bonus. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes and would absolutely recommend checking this spot out!

It's super convenient because it's near our kids schools and there's plenty of parking. I got the yellow curry and opted for no meat, with rice. I also splurged and got the garlic fried spare ribs. They're cut into small pieces but that's fine by me. All the food was delicious. And hubby was wrong about it being expensive. The yellow curry was $13, rice was $3, ribs were also $13. To me that is decently priced all things considered. It is a small place but they did have a couple people sit and eat as we did. But they seem to have a lot of take out orders which makes sense for noon. The lady was pretty nice, nothing to write home about but no complaints either. I noticed an older lady in the back cooking food, and for any kind of authentic food, it's a plus if grandmas in the back cooking. Iykyk! Definitely coming back, and eager to try their other offerings. Pineapple fried rice and red curry in particular!

I ordered the chicken satay, and the chicken was overcooked, dry, and tough. The peanut sauce also tasted overcooked, lacking the fresh, rich flavor I remembered. The cucumber salad was so spicy that it was inedible, and the fried rice had a strong fishy taste that completely threw off the dish. I'm not sure if they've changed owners, chefs, or recipes, but the quality was nowhere near what it used to be. It's disappointing to see a restaurant I once enjoyed so much decline like this. I hope they can get back to the quality that made them one of my favorite Thai restaurants.

When we first walked in, the place looked empty, and my wife and I almost considered leaving. Just as we were about to head out, a server came over, seated us, and explained the menu. The $45 menu is extensive, featuring a wide variety of Vietnamese dishes such as escargot (ốc), pho, and bò né (Vietnamese sizzling beef steak), among many others. We ordered escargot with tamarind sauce, oysters with cheese, a lobster special, rau muống (water spinach) with garlic, glass noodles, and a ribeye steak. This isn't a typical buffet--each dish is cooked to order. It took about 15 minutes since there were only two chefs, but the wait was absolutely worth it. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and served piping hot. The lobster was a whole lobster with claws, and the ribeye was a generous cut served sizzling at the table. The portions are large, and our server kindly warned us ahead of time--we're glad we listened! The owner was friendly, and the service was attentive throughout our meal. My wife and I loved this place and will definitely be coming back. It's great to have quality Vietnamese food nearby without having to travel all the way to OC.

    FANTASTIC PLACE FOR FOOD AND A PARTY!…read more I had the privilege of being invited to a party with some friends who had booked their event with Sea Queen Restaurant and I cannot deny that I was only impressed with the food, decor, staff, and the entire experience. If you are interested in booking your own event here, I recommend it. If you have no events coming up and just want some amazing food, still come here for that too! Amazing dishes are cooked and served here. It is mostly Vietnamese cuisine that you would find here, but hey... who doesn't enjoy this kind of cuisine? There is so much this restaurant has to offer. Not to mention there are weekly events; even a karaoke night. Lastly, if you enjoy sea snails, escargot, and don't want to drive out of the IE to the OC for some... just come here!
