My wife and I came here for date night and it was our first time at Ktown Pho, definitely won't be our last. We ordered the house pho and the crispy egg rolls, and both were a perfect 10/10. The pho was rich, flavorful, and comforting, and the egg rolls were crispy and fresh with great flavor. The soda lemonade was also a standout super refreshing and a great complement to the meal. Overall, everything from the food to the experience made for an awesome date night. We'll definitely be coming back and recommending this spot to others. read more

Where do I even begin? My friend and I came into this restaurant on a Saturday afternoon (4pm-ish) and it was slow. There were allegedly no tables available so we were told to put our names down. We waited about 7-10 mins and were sat. We each ordered the House Pho since it seemed to be the most popular dish, as well as an order of Spring Rolls. The waiter who was attending to us repeated our order which was (2) bowls of House Pho, Spring Rolls, and (2) beverages. When the food came out we only received one of the Pho dishes and one beverage. We asked to follow up on our additional soup and beverage only to the waited to tell us that we had only ordered one soup dish and one drink. We were very confused since he had repeated the order to us before sending it to the kitchen. The soup itself was lukewarm and flavor of the broth wasn't necessarily extraordinary. Similar to what others have written, it lacked flavor and tasted watered down. Pho should be packed with flavor and hot. The quality of meat was okay, but don't think I'll be going back. I wish I had nicer things to say about this place, but everything was disappointing. TLDR; overhyped, lacks flavor, and overpriced. read more

Came here for some good authentic pho & we were not let down. It was so delicious & had lots of noodles. The meat was cooked beautifully. It was quite busy when we came for dinner around 4pm, but we were sat quickly. The ambiance was medium noise level. The restaurant wasn't as clean inside & the bathrooms were a bit dirty Nonetheless the food was delicious! read more

I was feeling a little under the weather so decided to get a good bowl of Pho. Ktown Pho was def able to satisfy my cravings without driving to SGV. I ordered the Seafood pho, the broth was amazing but they were a lil skimpy of the seafood. That would be my only critique. Otherwise go check them out! read more

Ktown Pho - House Special Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Delicious pho with perfectly springy noodles. I had the seafood in vegan broth and it truly hit the spot. There are various options, including for vegans. Service was polite and helpful. The atmosphere was calm and quiet when we arrived, but got busier at the lunch rush. It's a little confusing getting in from Western Ave. We were unsure if it was the entrance for the restaurant or the dog shop. Just keep walking back and you'll find it. read more

The pho ga was a nice and light broth with good flavors, good noodles texture, and good overall toppings and ingredients. The service was attentive and polite, the interior was a medium sized restaurant with good amount of seating, and it was pretty good overall. I didn't know there was peanuts in the chili oil so I had a bit of an allergic reaction, but it was small enough to warrant no commotion/ no complaints. Please put a sign that it has peanuts in it read more

Okay. I enjoy Pho as much as the rest, but this place takes it to another level. Service is outstanding. Korea Town has a lot of great spots. But this place is great. The seating is amazing, very clean, and well lit. I give this 5 stars all round. read more

Best Pho I've had in Los Angeles! I typically come here with my friend I always order the chicken pho and the broth is so delicious. It's a pretty small establishment but that doesn't take away from how delicious the food is! I will always come back to Ktown Pho for my monthly fix. read more

Im so obsessed with this spot. The decor is simple and the staff is friendly! Went on a sunday once and put my name on the list. Then the line started to get longer, that's how I knew it was going to be good! The food was brought out fast and hot. I love that their vegan options are clearly marked! I got the summer rolls with tofu and the vegan pho. OMG! I was instantly hooked. The rolls were fresh and so flavorful. The pho was exactly what I needed, the perfect broth! It's especially hard finding a good vegan broth, but this place was perfect. I've been back several time and will keep coming back. This is a great spot for lunch or dinner. There's a small parking lot in the back that fills up quick but you can find street parking. Deff bringing friends and family here when they're in town. Vegan approved and my meat eating friends loved it too! Can't wait to come back. read more

Food - we both had chicken pho. Both of us were very satisfied with the quality of the food we tried. Grant it , it was our first time , so can't speak to the taste of the other dishes. Ambiance can only be described as "tight" (and not how teens use that word "that experience was tight!"). It is a very small service area, and to my knowledge, a wait for a table is not uncommon. Having said that, service is top-notch and the staff turns tables around very fast. Solid place to eat, but you need patience and absolutely no claustrophobia to eat there. read more

Sooo crazy good!!! Not sure why still an unknown sleeper but cannot argue how tender soft and delicious the meat quality here!!! Portions have definitely shrank but staff and ownership are still super nice and accommodating!! Highly recommended!! Street parking recommended but they do have an oddly shaped super busy back parking lot!! read more

I'm really sad to write this because we've genuinely liked Ktown Pho in the past, but after today we won't be back. While we were still eating, a staff member named Alejandro started sweeping right next to our table. We asked him politely if he could just wait a couple of minutes until we were finished because it isn't hygienic to have dust flying around your food, but he refused. To make matters worse, he then started calling out to other customers to ask if he was bothering them. It was completely unnecessary and created an embarrassing scene while we were just trying to finish our meal. When we contacted management, we just got a lot of excuses. We were told that they try to hire people who might struggle to find work elsewhere. While we can appreciate a good mission, it shouldn't come at the expense of basic customer service or a clean eating environment. It's a shame, but the way this was handled by both the staff and management was just unacceptable. We won't be returning. read more

summer rolls were delicious, love pairing it with the sauce it comes with and the spicy sauce. the pho was also good, i liked the quality of the meat although the portion was relatively smaller compared to other places i've had. it was very busy on a weekend lunch but they do have a new second location on 8th street called pho byob (one of the employees mentioned it was a lot bigger/same exact menu/less wait times). there's a few spots to park but there's also the alley and street parking nearby. read more

I have dined here a few times and it hits every time! This is definitely the best in all of Koreatown and the broth flavors are always so rich. I've had oxtail, ribeye, and chicken pho from here and all were amazing, service is great too! It is a chill small spot with a nice vibe. It's a bit small inside and Friday nights + weekends expect a wait -- just know it's worth it everytime. read more

Best pho in my life! Wagyu was rich, filet mignon was perfect. Granted we ordered to-go but the packaging was spot on, everything stayed hot and the noodles had the perfect SPRING. Also, best goi cuon (spring rolls) and egg rolls, beautifully wrapped. read more

Hidden gem in Ktown, probably the best pho I ever had. Quality ingredients, delicious and flavorful broth and excellent price point. It is a smaller location, so I can see this place filling up fast but the service is still excellent. Will definitely be going back, huge fan. It was so good I forgot to take pictures but I had his House Pho with wagyu and my friend had the filet mignon pho and we shared eggrolls. Everything was spectacular. read more

I'm really disappointed with my experience at ktown pho. I found a hair in my to-go order and immediately tried calling the store multiple times to resolve the issue. I was told they couldn't process a refund without the owner, who was apparently out of town. I was promised a callback but never heard back from anyone. Accidents happen, but the lack of communication and customer service afterward was frustrating and unprofessional. read more

Was in the ktown area today and decided to try this pho place. As usual I got a beef soup with shrimp. It was solid. Pretty good. Solid 4 out of 5. Will definitely come back again when in the area and try some more food. It's nice that they've got enough tables inside and outside the little restaurant. Service is fair. Could use some Xtra attention. read more

I had the chicken pho which I would say was solid. I didn't like the chicken meat too much, it felt kind of mushy. I'm sure their beef is much better but unfortunately can't have beef. I love the different condiments they have and I appreciate the amount of onion, basil and lime. Service was prompt. Their dining area is very cramp but the turn around is quick. Their menu is digital only which may be a con for some people and there is parking lot but it's very small. Solid place for a quick bite to eat. read more

My boyfriend and I were looking for a place to have some pho this evening and we stumbled across this place. We did have to wait a bit because the tables were being occupied ( it's a small place so dining area was a bit more reduced) but we were attended very quickly. All staff were very attentive and kind, offering us good service. I will say a few minutes after we ordered, the food was handed to us nice and hot !! I had tried the seafood pho ( containing shrimp , fish cake & imitation crab ) which was very nice and filling. First time trying this combination and I fell in love. We ordered some spring rolls which were nice and satisfying. And the Thai tea was awesome !! Had a strong Thai flavor but not overwhelming ‍. Would I come back ? Definitely !! read more

First time here. Service was great .Pho was good. They put cilantro and onion with noodles. They should keep them separate with the sprouts and basil because not everyone likes cilantro or onions. Also, parking was hard to find and I had to walk past some shady characters to get to the place.I feel for the mom&pop businesses that have to deal with this wide spread problem. read more

If you can, just go to the SGV for pho. Safe spot for pho if you're in the area and need a quick pho-fix but I wouldn't personally return. Also price was a little high for the size of bowl. read more

Had the pho tai and bun bo hue. Excellent service and very quick to deliver food. Very solid pho but on the pricier side for what they offer in size, flavor, and ambience. Overall a good choice and I would go back but you can definitely find similar quality for cheaper. read more

Small portions overpriced and nothing special. Place smelled musty and there were cleaning products everywhere. Menus had sharpie markups and they brought out a peeled off QR code for you to scan and then took the code sticker away. Restroom had a rusty mop and no towels. Staff was ok but the guy in the front had all kinds of face piercings. The floor needed to be swept and mopped. They used windex to clean the table and reused the same rag. Never again. Extra star for the friendly staff. Otherwise would be just one. read more

Very quaint hidden gem in Ktown :) I have to say we have been to many pho restaurants and this one is one of the best I've had. Has a nice ambiance, cute lighting, nice calming music. I would say keep in mind, it's not very large inside definitely on the smaller side but still very cozy. Service was good, our waitress was attentive. We ordered the shrimp pho, and my oh my was it good. The broth was so flavorful, the shrimp cooked to perfection. Everything tasted extremely fresh. We were very satisfied with our meal. Overall we enjoyed our experience and I'm sure we'll come back in the near future. read more
