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.

Pho bo vien

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.

Chicken giblet pho, Pick 3 Items Pho

Always busy, I try to come before the lunch rush usually. One of the best pho in the area! Clean, balanced broth, generous portion and even chicken pho is deliciously savory and one of my favorites. Nice comfortable seating, if It wasn't packed like sardines, it would be better but then, it wouldn't be the best pho place.

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.

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.

Beef Brisket Stew (B kho)
Marian X.

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.

Sokna S.

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 !

Spicy Beef Noodles (Bún Bò Huế)
Douglas T.

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!

The dumplings were so juicy; the skin was perfectly cooked as well! The cucumbers were tossed in vinegar, peppercorn, and chili. You order through a QR code, and service was extremely quickly. We were able to snack on the cucumbers before our entrees arrived. The sun does tend to get in your eyes if you sit facing the window during midday. The two combos were enough for 3 people.

My sisters-in-law who live in the area highly recommended this spot when we were deciding on a Sunday dinner the night before we flew out. Among the four of us, we ordered: - Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings) - Biang Biang Noodles: least numbing of the noodle dishes we ordered. If you LOVE carbs and not a lot of sauce, this one's for you! - Dandan noodles: this thin noodle dish is slightly more numbing than the Biang Biang noodles, but still bearable and tasty. - Chongqing Special Noodles: most numbing of the three! I had to pause eating this a few times as it was getting a little uncomfy! The noodles are side but thinner than the Biang Biang noodles. I liked that we ordered noodle dishes each with different noodle types, flavors, and spice levels. The Biang Biang noodles were respite from the Chongqing Special Noodles, while the Dandan noodles had the right amount of peanut flavor and "mala." We arrived 45 minutes before closing on a Sunday night (it was a holiday the next day though). We were surprised that there was still a line of people wait in for seats close to closing time! Thinking we weren't going to be seated, we decided to order for takeout. We ended up being the last party to be seated! The staff was kind to transfer our takeout orders as dine-in dishes!

We ended up dipping them a bunch. You po also relatively flavorless. The noodles seemed fresh, but were a bit overdone and almost soggy. They were enhanced by the best of what we ordered, and that was the Chong Qing noodles. Decent flavor, noodles were cooked well, and nice portion of meat and bok choy.

I can't speak for them, but I will say, if you order the tsukemen and find that you want more dipping broth, that will be an extra charge. Order a regular bowl of ramen if you do not plan to dip the brothless noodles into the broth for each bite. BF and I both tried the spicy tuna bowl ($7.95), chashu bowl ($8.95), and tonkotsu ramen ($15.95). The bowls are a little smaller than the ramen bowls and are a great option if you want a light meal without feeling super full. The tonkotsu ramen had a slightly rich broth that was flavorful and a decent portion of noodles. We opted not to order the ramen with the egg since we were also trying the rice bowls. The three items were more than enough for the two of us and a good variety of food. Parking here is horrible at the street level, so head downstairs for the two levels of underground parking.

Hidden Gem in Alhambra - Finally Tried It After 4 Years of Driving By!…read more I've lived in Alhambra for the last 4 years and drove past this place almost every day, always assuming it was just another hot pot spot. It never looked super busy, so I kept putting it off. Big mistake--don't let that happen to you like it did to me! We finally went in and ordered a bunch: the Spicy Beef Shank Rice Noodle, Rattan Pepper Sliced Beef Rice Noodle, Popcorn Chicken, Sesame Balls, Popping Brown Sugar Rice Cake, Fried Milk Rolls, and Fried Taro Balls. Everything was outstanding. The noodles were amazing--fresh, chewy, with high-quality ingredients you can really taste in every bite. The broths had that perfect spicy kick without being overwhelming, and the beef was super tender. My wife and I couldn't stop eating; literally everything we tried was delicious. She especially loved the Fried Taro Balls--they were crispy outside, soft and flavorful inside. The sides/snacks were all hits too: the Popcorn Chicken was perfectly seasoned and crispy, the Sesame Balls and Popping Brown Sugar Rice Cake brought great texture and sweetness, and the Fried Milk Rolls were a fun surprise. Service was top-notch--shoutout to Icey, who took such great care of us. One of the best and most attentive experiences we've had in a while.
