    S2. Orange Flavor Chicken
    Betty R.

    Great portion, the chicken is crispy and saucy. It is a little chewy, but I do enjoy the sweet orangey sauce. But the star is the chow fun. Such a good portion and so saucy and well cooked. Definitely worth a try! I would recommend getting the lunch specials when available cause you get an eggroll and soup for less of a price. I have also been to the restaurant and they are always clean. There is usually only one person doing everything front of the house so the service is a little slow, but not like anything getting upset about.

    Always delicious.... even though they took away my favorite item, sesame chicken. Staff is friendly and the place is clean.

    Now this place is an amazing find! Been going to Cerritos College for sports and never saw this place. It was busy at 1030 AM. Great menu. Large portions. Friendly service. Food is flavorful and my son and I crushed it. The only reason it is not five stars is because of the canned sodas. We will definitely go back

    60.00 dollars worth? Hell nah!

    They are extremely pricey for the little they give you. I ordered 4 things that came in a meal prep container 60 dollars. I get more food with in-n-out. I will never come here again. You shouldn't either

    Chicken Pho

    Quick service and generous portions! I ordered the chicken noodle pho and some orange chicken and both were delicious. The pho had great flavor and was packed with plenty of chicken. The orange chicken was super saucy (in a good way!) and the broccoli added a nice, fresh touch! Definitely coming back!

    I normally come here for the curry chicken to go. Today . I decided to bring my family wife and two kids 12 and nine years old for dine in. I ordered the chicken and broccoli. The chicken was undercooked. Broccoli was good. Rice was good order two brisket bowls it was just OK service was terrible. They brought us Our food never came back to check on us! Lousy service. If you go here get it to go.

    Chicken dumplings
    Danny V.

    Good place to have some great Pho. Only reason I gave the 4 stars is because you don't have table service. Even if you eat there you have to pay as you order. So basically tip if you want and service might be ok. The pho was very tasty, chicken dumplings were good also. The house noodles have a little of everything which makes it convenient.

    L F.

    I was watching YouTube of someone eating Chinese food and I instantly started craving it. Found Golden Pho on Yelp and decided to place a delivery order. My driver stopped twice before he got to me, but my food was surprisingly still hot. The bbq pork fried rice was full of flavor, fresh and delicious. The cream cheese wontons were crunchy and added with the sweet & sour, it was delightful! I had leftovers which I ate the next day and it was still delicious. I'll definitely order here again

I've probably been here 15-20 times, and they've consistently kept me coming back. My go-to is definitely the beef pho. The broth and flavor just hit every time. The shrimp pho is really good too, and honestly, I've tried some of their other plates and haven't really been disappointed. They have plenty of options besides pho, and pretty much everything I've had has been good. The service is excellent, but what really makes this place stand out is the atmosphere. It doesn't feel like some big restaurant--it has more of that family-run, home-style feeling where you feel comfortable coming back again and again. After 15-20 visits, I think it's safe to say this is my spot. If you're looking for some really good pho, I definitely recommend Flavor Pho.

You do have the choice of beef broth. It came out quickly! It was a pretty standard bowl for $14. Portion size was in the middle too. Nothing stood out in particular except that the tofu seemed to have a sour taste so I was a bit turned off by that. If I were to come back, I'd try something different but there's probably only one other dish I'd try

    I'm updating my previous review because our most recent visit unfortunately changed my overall…read moreimpression of this place. I've always liked this spot as a late-night eatery, and the food itself is still good, the broth is flavorful, and the noodles and other dishes have generally been enjoyable. That's why I was especially disappointed by how our most recent visit was handled. We arrived around midnight and put our name on the waitlist. There were a few parties ahead of us, and around 12:30 AM, the host came out and explained that at that point, seating was no longer guaranteed, despite the restaurant being scheduled to close at 1:30 AM. We decided to continue waiting and were eventually seated around 1:00 AM. We ordered immediately, and our food came out shortly afterward around 1:15 AM. At exactly 1:30 AM, while we were still finishing our meal, our server came over and said that they were closing and asked if we wanted boxes for the remaining food. Technically, it was phrased as a reminder and an offer to provide boxes for our food, but the implication was very clear: we needed to leave. That was what made the situation particularly uncomfortable. We completely understood that the restaurant was closing and had no intention of staying past closing to socialize or linger. We were literally still eating the food we had just ordered around 1:15 AM. We had only been seated for about 30 minutes, ordered immediately, and were already nearly finished when the server approached us. We had also already paid our bill. The timing just left an awkward feeling. If the restaurant closes at 1:30 AM and customers who are seated close to closing are expected to be completely finished and out by that time, I think that should be communicated before seating them. It would have allowed us to decide whether waiting until 1:00 AM was worthwhile. I also understand that employees need to finish their shifts and close the restaurant on time, and I respect that. My issue is more with the overall communication and the way the situation was handled. Being seated at 1:00 AM, ordering immediately, receiving our food around 1:15 AM, and then essentially being told at 1:30 AM that it was time to leave made the experience feel rushed and uncomfortable. This isn't a review based on the food, the food is still good. It's about the overall experience and customer service during this particular visit. Unfortunately, what should have been a nice late night meal ended with an awkward feeling that stayed with us after we left. Because of this experience, I can no longer give this location the five stars I previously gave it. I hope management takes this as constructive feedback, because I do think the situation could have been handled much more smoothly and with clearer communication upfront.

Unfortunately, they didn't make it. After we came back off of lockdown, I remember driving around a two mile radius near the Cerritos Mall trying different places. They were open, but none of them served oxtail pho which is my preference for the nutrient density. Then I found Pho Pioneer, and I couldn't have been more impressed from day one. I'm a pretty low key, chill person. I prefer speakeasy vibes, quiet spaces, and traditional spots and this place checks every box. The service is great. The woman who runs the restaurant has always been incredibly sweet and welcoming. It makes a difference when you feel genuinely appreciated as a customer. I also love the art and photos on the walls, and the fish tank is a whole experience on its own. There's nothing quite like eight creepily beautiful fish judging you while you're sipping pho and recovering from a cold. Pho Pioneer has become one of my go to spots, and I'm grateful I found it.

I waited perhaps 4-5 minutes until an employee came out. I almost walked out, but ultimately, I was glad I stayed! I got the house special/ pho dac biet in the large size (13.95 vs $12.95 for a reg size). The bowl came out hot and the noodles were al dente. The ratio of meat to noodles was on par/ ideal. They were a little skimpy on the amount of noodles. The broth had a nice balance of beef and pho spice aromas and taste. It was topped with plenty of green onions and cilantro. The downside is the service, portion since that large size wasn't enough for me, and the tendons were too tough. It felt more like a regular sized bowl than a large. I couldn't hear what the employee said every time there was an interaction except at the very end when she said thank you. The restroom hallway was dark and I had to use my phone flashlight, not sure if they just turned it off to conserve energy? But it was so dark, it could've been bad. My overall take is, don't let the appearance of the place and service deter you. If you're craving pho, give this place a try! I could tell, they put some lovin' in it!

The place was empty when we went around 3pm, yet it took just under 10 minutes for anyone to acknowledge us. We placed our orders: *Thai Tea, no boba - apparently our server didn't put in the order, never checked on us, and therefore never arrived. *Vermicelli bowl with grilled pork and egg roll - Huge bowl of vermicelli with salad underneath, pork on top and a piping hot cha gio. The pork was so dry it was more like pork jerky, but not in a good way. It was very difficult to chew. No one ever checked on us, so we didn't have an opportunity to tell our server the meat had been overcooked to the point of inedible. That egg roll sure was good, though! *Pork and shrimp Spring roll - not bad at all, but there was precious little pork or shrimp inside. Mostly the cool vermicelli noodles. The peanut sauce was unlike any I've ever had at a Vietnamese place. It was a gloppy sauce with a tiny bit of crushed peanuts added. Usually it's like Thai satay sauce but this wasn't even close. Fortunately they had sriracha and hoisin sauce on the table. Tried to ask for check, but again, no one was paying any attention to us so I had to get up and ask for it. Remember, we were the *only* people eating at the time. We never felt like anyone cared that we were there or if we ever came back. No worries. There's lots of other good Asian choices in the area.
