    This place is always busy. Came on a Saturday around 1:30 pm with a party of 3 and still had about a 15 minute wait. Service started a bit slow. It took a while to get water and place our order, and staff doesn't really check in much after that. The menu here is different from Golden Delight #2. This location has both a Vietnamese and separate Chinese menu. The Chinese side is more family-style, while the Vietnamese menu is noticeably smaller. They don't offer things like com tam or goi here, which was a bit disappointing. I wish they were more transparent on the viet menu and then just offer additional chinese food at this location if anything. The food is just as good and portions are just as big as the other location. The space is similar in size to #2, and not quite as clean or new, but still nicer than many other Vietnamese spots. It has that same gold-themed decor that gives it a slightly more upscale feel. Parking is convenient with street spots in front or a free 2-hour lot in the back, though it does fill up. Overall, still a good spot, but I personally prefer the #2 location for the more complete vietnamese menu and cleaner/brighter space.

    Party of 3 stumbled upon this restaurant based on Yelp! The restaurant is bright, clean, and modern. They have a small garage parking. Service is really busy, I think they shared all the tables. It's friendly and efficient. We ordered beef crispy noodles which is authentic, a small braised pork with egg is very flavorful. Highly recommended dish. Squid with basil sauce is kind of half crispy and half sauce - it's good and tasty. Rice is $1 per bowl. Overall, we will comeback here to try their pho, and other Chinese / Vietnamese dishes.

    Ordered dinner here for the family. First time at Golden Delight, offering a teo chow chinese menu and vietnamese menu. Vietnamese kitchen closed at 7. Ordered dinner for the family to go on the vietnamese menu. Got pho dac biet, pho ga and pho bo vien along with spring rolls (that has shrimp and pork). Total was just under $80 which not out of the norm these days. Waited about 20 minutes for the food. While waiting, there's not a whole lot of room to stand by unless you hang around the register area, but the staff was kind to offer me a seat at the booth that was vacant to wait. The staff was very nice and easy to talk to and checked in with you made you feel very comfortable. The restaurant has a lot of seating and based on the menu has a lot of food offering especially for a place that serves both Chinese and Vietnamese dishes. I had the pho bo vien and the soup base is on par, but the meatball was meh. It lacked flavor and was not complimenting the soup or noodles at all. This is the reason for the two star deduction. It was an alright dish and likely would not try it again. My mother in law had the pho dac biet and she told me she was not a fan of it and prefers other restaurants pho dac biet. My wife had pho ga and she reports its a decent dish as well. So all in all it received an "okay" rating. The packaging of the to go order was a bit on the fancy side which i think is a nice touch but does not make up for the food being "okay". Would i come back to this restaurant? Probably if i am in the area but will likely try their Chinese menu and see how that fairs to their Vietnamese menu. Would it be a first choice if i was trying to decide a place to eat, for me not likely. Hopefully their chinese menu will change my mind. Until then it was a decent choice.

    Our fav chain location, and pho/chinese lunch special place! $16ish Pho, and $12/$13.99 Chinese Lunch Special Monday-Thursday 11am-3pm, includes soup and rice. Allows lunch special takeout!!! Soup not included for takeout orders. Newer restaurant with modern, clean look and maintenance with nice booth seating (but fitbbest for lean customers). Takes credit card. Friends who are regulars here suggested this place awhile back and now its or regular stop. This is probably the only pho/Vietnamese shop that I know that also serve Chinese food, and Chinese lunch special. $5.50 Pennywort Juice with their regular sweetness was perfect!! Not overly sweet, not overly watery here too. $16.50 Golden Delight Pho is typical beef pho, tasty. No Stone Bowl vs stone is the same price. $12.50 L5. String Beans with Chicken. It comes with 1 bowl of rice and soup. This dish isn't large but looks like better quality. The soup is like msg fish flavor soup, still tasty. Funny, how we haven't had the chance to try their spring rolls yet or maybe I've just given up on it diento so many bad/nonfresh ones; next time! Note in past visit: Bun Bo Hue is pretty spicy. If it says 2 spicy out of 3. Its probably good for someone who does like medium spicy. It's more of a mild to light medium person and I barely was able to enjoy it. Overall, I think I remember liking their pho more here.

    Golden Delight #1 located on Garvey Ave. in El Monte serves Vietnamese cuisine along with some Chinese dishes. Our party of 9 were seated at their large after a short wait. They do not take reservations and you check in at the kiosk next to the host podium. Because we of large group we were able to try lots of different dishes. Sautéed shrimp and asparagus Beef stew Bo Kha Sautéed bock choy Golden Delight Pho beef rib Fried chicken wings Mapo tofu Bun Suon Moc vermicelli House Special Prawn E-Fu Noodle Ong Choy w/ fermented bean curd Egg rolls French style beef cube All of the items were good and everything came out fast. The best item was the house special prawn noodle. The interior decor is like a nice dim sum place rather than your normal pho restaurant. Service was good but very ridged toward the vegetation restrictions of one in our group. Street parking only.

    I was craving for the food at Golden Delight, and I was in the area yesterday. I ordered French-style beef over red rice ($16.50), Bún riêu ($15.50), and Hainanese Chicken Thigh Rice ($15.99) for to-go. We all liked their food. My favorite was their Bún riêu (Vietnamese Crab, Pork & Tomato Noodle Soup), it was very delicious, and the flavor was rich, and it had a tangy & savory flavor from the tomato and shrimp paste. The hot broth was nicely separated into another bowl, with the cooked riêu and tofu, and then we garnished it with their fresh herbs, bean sprouts, and a squeeze of lime before eating. The French-style beef over red rice was addictive, and it was very flavorful. The Hainan chicken rice was not bad, and I liked the oily rice more than the chicken. They packaged the to-go boxes nicely, and the staff was friendly and efficient as well.

    Authentic Chinese and Vietnamese dishes. Free street parking available and small parking lot in rear. Fried egg rolls were crispy and had a generous filling with meat and vegetables. Savory and delectable! Banh Canh Cua had chewy udon noodles in a thick crab soup. Came with may toppings (shrimp, Vietnamese ham, mushrooms, green onions, fried onions, quail egg, pork slices, pork blood, and pork foot). Extremely filling and I love the thickness of the broth. Pho was just okay. The "fatty brisket" they gave us didn't have fat at all. It was more like plain brisket. The broth is good though. Service is wonderful! The workers here really hustle and are so quick with fulfilling requests. I would say a minor con of this place is that it's not suitable for large groups. There is only one table available for parties over 6 people. Thus, super long wait times for my family and me when we come together. They have the convenience of joining the waitlist via Yelp, but doesn't matter for large parties if that big table is taken.

    Second time here, I had everything the same as my last visit except for the House Special Prawn E-fu Noodles. This was recommended by our server, the prawns were large and the sauce of this dish was average (savory with a slight spiciness from the black pepper). However, I didn't really like the noodle, it was thick but not chewy (felt like you were just chewing on flour but with no distinctive texture). I don't recommend it. The service was great but staff started cleaning early before their closing time and trying to get the customer out the door (which I do understand but kind of kill the overall experience a bit). There was barely a wait on a Sunday night which really surprised me. The parking lot is quite small and can be hard to navigate.

    Been here twice now. The most recent time I came was cause a friend was craving their fermented fish soup. Sounds less appetizing than it really is. It didn't have as fermented of a smell as I thought it would like with stinky tofu. It was ok, kinda salty. I got the hot and sour shrimp soup. The standard is catfish but I prefer shrimp. The small size is great for sharing so even after drinking three bowls, there was still plenty to share and take home. They were not skimpy on the shrimp either. It is just a soup so if you're eating that on its own, like I did, I would recommend ordering a side of noodles or rice to go with it. I got noodles cause I prefer that combo. We also got the egg rolls appetizer to share cause our other friend was taking forever to get there. I was hesitant cause it's made with taro and I dislike taro, plus it's like a cheap filler some places use instead of putting more meat. It was made the way I like with the clear spring roll wrapper and then deep fried instead of the usually egg wash egg roll wrappers. It didn't end up tasting super taro like so I would actually get it again. I didn't get it this time but the stewed catfish is always good. I wish I could make it at home. I keep saying I'll be back to try the stone pot pho but I always end up getting something else. Maybe I'll bring my kids and get multiple things. Downsides are parking sucks so we always end up doing street parking which I dislike. The booth they stuck us in was right by the bathroom but the worst part was it was tight and lopsided. Like I dunno what was going on with the seat but it was definitely askew. 1-2 stars for just those things but I still give them a 4 cause it's really about the food and service was good enough.

    Food 4/5: Started with a peach tea, nicely sweet and refreshing. The bun bo hué was good, lacked a little flavor but portion wonderfully. The second noodle fish was the crab udon which was deliciously flavored! Definitely try the crab udon, a must! Service 5/5: Staff is great, very quick and nice! Ambiance 5/5: Beautiful decorations and really comfortable seating. Plenty of space for large parties as well.

    After all the positive reviews , I decided to give a try . Walked in to the restaurant , it's very clean and bright , table settings are unique , I like the idea they provide you the paper mats , offering both Chinese and Vietnamese menus . I would recommend their specialty Vietnamese items . The food portions were decent, veggies were fresh and refrigerated ! I am very allergic to MSG and normally consumed lots of water from the reaction after the meal , but this restaurant I haven't experienced anything . I definitely going back again when I am in the area !

    Visiting LA and was recommended this place! The inside was definitely a little fancier than other pho restaurants I've been too but still casual! They had a mix of viet and Chinese food. They were super organized and efficient with the wait! They were also pretty attentive since they had quite the wait outside but we didn't feel rushed at all. Now for the food, I got the Pho Dac Biet in the stone bowl and they do give you a pretty good portion of meat, but I felt that the bowl was a little small and crowded especially when I added the raw meat and noodles in (I didn't have room for my veggies) but overall it was good and clean! I would probably just get the "pick 3" in a ceramic bowl next time tho. My friend got the Bun Bo Hue and said it was really good! And the egg rolls were great as well! Highly recommend!

That's right, 5 minutes. Although I did go around 9:50AM so there wasn't a line nor another party in the dining area. Food: I woke up craving Vietnamese and this place didn't disappoint. The Bon Rieu had the depth of flavor that I crave. Honestly, I judge most Vietnamese pho restaurants by their Bon Rieu because some places simply use seafood powder in their stock to fake it. What results is a very thinly flavored broth that has very little umami. Bon Rieu should have THE MOST umami of any soup dish because of its tomato and crab base. That's how you can tell if a place is cutting corners. The Nem Cuom is huge and the dipping sauce is generous. The House Special Tea is reminiscent of a passion fruit green tea from a boba place. Sweetened just enough to not be saccharine. Ambiance: Quite small. I believe one of their main issues may be parking during peak hours as it shares a tiny parking lot with many other businesses. HOWEVER, neighborhood parking is plentiful and just around the corner past the Sheridan Hotel and Starbucks. Round the corner and you'll find plenty of parking throughout the day.

I came by on a Friday at 7pm for a dinner (weekend before Mother's Day) and was able to get seated in 15 minutes. They have a Yelp waitlist but you must go in person to join the waitlist. There's a spacious parking lot but there's rarely any spots available and will require you to wait for a free one. The interior is honestly very pretty. It's decorated with overhead chandeliers with bright lights and marble tables. When your table is ready, they also give you a tray full of chopsticks, napkins, and forks. Each table also has hoisin, sriracha, chili sauce, and another sauce I'm not too sure about. After we ordered, I got my pho da biet maybe 5 minutes after. The cha gios also came out a few minutes after too. Unfortunately, my boyfriend's com tam was forgotten about until after I devoured my pho. We even asked them about it in the middle and it was checked on but we weren't updated and thought they had went ahead and cancelled it but it still came out. No biggy, we packed it to-go since we basically split the pho da biet. Food: Pho da biet (9.5/10): The pho was soooo delicious. It was meaty with a little bit of sweetness to it. This is one of the few places where I don't feel the need to sauce down my pho to enjoy it. There's a good amount of meat in here. If you're a tendon enjoyer, there's about 3 big chunks in here. I love the way they separate everything. If you order this, it comes with the stone bowl at no additional costs. They separate the noodles and ribeye on the side and let you "decorate" it yourself. There was also a good amount of noodles in here. Com tam (7.9/10): I thought that this one was just okay. We got the grilled pork and grilled pork chop and I thought that the meats were cooked perfectly. There was a nice char to the meats and it was seasoned deliciously. It came with a lot of rice and a side of soup to enjoy! I did enjoy this fish sauce more than the one that came with the egg rolls. Overall, I wish this dish came out the same time as the pho so we could've enjoyed it together. Cha gio/Imperial Rolls (7/10): I love egg rolls but this one didn't really stand out to me. It comes with a good amount of vegetables that you can use to wrap your egg rolls in. I wish the fish sauce that came with this was more salty. Maybe it was that day, but I couldn't really tell what was inside the filling. It was all mushed in together instead of different layers. The skin was very thin and crispy which I really liked!

Their prices have not changed in years and the portions remain the same versus shrinkflation. Their menu is not that big but it has your essential Vietnamese dishes. Today I ordered the banh beo bi, vermicelli with nem nuong and egg rolls, nem nuong coun and che ba mau. Banh beo bi are rice cakes topped with shredded pork. It comes with chilies and fish sauce for you to pour on top. The rice cakes are served warm and are super smooth and soft. The thai chilies it comes with are spicy so don't use too much. The vermicelli with nem nuong and egg rolls comes with a slab of meat and a whole egg roll. The bottom are the noodles and mix of veggie and herbs. The nem nuong is sweetened charbroiled pork that is grilled. Think of a sweet meat ball. The egg rolls are super crispy and filled with meat. The noodles go well with the fish sauce and there are a lot of veggies inside. The nem nuong coun is a spring roll that's wrapped in rice paper. It has the meat and lettuce wrapped inside and comes with a dipping sauce. I believe the sauce is made with ground shrimp. For $8 for 3 rolls it is a steal compared to other restaurants. If you are craving Brodards in OC this place can satisfy your craving. Their che ba mau which is a 3 bean dessert has a lot of beans inside topped with coconut milk and shaved ice. It is the person drink to finish your meal and it is not too sweet.

    CASH ONLY! Definitely a mom and pop spot, they have tables to dine in but it's one of those spots…read moreI'd prefer to take to-go and enjoy in the comfort of my own home. Com Tam is decent, rice texture is on point. Pork chop is marinated well but not enough lemongrass flavor, tender and not dry at all. Baked egg was good but not amazing, seemed like it missing shredded wood ear mushroom. Che Ba Mau by far hands down the worst I've had. Red bean wasn't soft, outer shell/skin was still pretty tough. Not much mung bean either after stirring it literally for about 4 seconds the mung bean basically disintegrated into the liquid. The liquid.. watered down skim milk, not a trace of coconut flavor anywhere. I didn't know you can mess up Che Ba Mau until I had it from here.

    This was across the hotel I was at. It had good ratings so I gave it a try…read more Lots of tables inside. It wasn't full, but lots of customers dining in and picking up. I ordered egg rolls and the Pho Dac Biet. The egg rolls came out first. Fresh from the fryer with lettuce, herbs and the nuoc mam/fish sauce. I ended up fishing that on my own (first meal of the day haha). I was wondering where my pho was. I flagged down the server and he seemingly forgot. He rushed to the kitchen to get that going and it came out within a few minutes. Broth check first. It was light and had flavor. Didn't need to add hot sauce or hoisin sauce. Dressed up the pho with the herbs and went at it. Finished that as well. Pretty extensive menu. Fresh food. Overall, a nice place to grab some Vietnamese food.

    New experience alert…read more My good friend Ben shared with me this Vietnamese place. I've never been to a place where they specialize in the catch fish where it's prepared Vietnamese style. You make these rolls with the fish with the sauce that you create along with all the side raddish's, carrots, and lettuce. We got the medium fish and it filled the 3 of us. The service was great. Our server got us everything we needed whenever we needed it. It feels like a bbq place and there's definitely a like so come early. My friend pre ordered the fish because it takes some time to prepare. Super delicious meal. You've got to try it.

    Thien An Bo 7 Mon provided an incredible experience for our group of eight on a Friday night. We…read morewere able to secure a reservation for 7:00 PM and were seated immediately upon arrival. Our server, Kevin, truly made the night memorable. He is hilarious and charismatic, ensuring we were well taken care of while keeping everyone laughing throughout the entire meal. The food was fantastic, especially the large catfish we ordered along with several other dishes. A helpful tip for anyone planning a visit is to order the catfish in advance when you make your reservation, as it is a popular item that takes some time to prepare. The dining style is interactive and fun since you wrap your own rolls using the catfish and various meats accompanied by fresh vegetables and vermicelli. We were there celebrating a friend's birthday, and the staff was kind enough to keep our cake in the fridge until we were ready for dessert at the end of the night. Everything was delicious, and the service made the celebration even more special.
