Pho 21 - Great pho as you can see - Vietnamese Near Me - Buena Park, California

This place is the best! I am not exaggerating! I came here drunk during Covid and never stopped coming back best pho and service! I'm a person that doesn't like people bugging me every few minutes while I'm hanging out with my friend or on a date and omg this is the perfect place! The servers are super polite and soft about their approach when they do come to bug you! I'm super grateful I found this place 4 years ago read more

Pho 21 - Vietnamese Near Me - Buena Park, California

This review is for the SERVICE of the Ladies. I'm sorry, but even though I love my local Pho 21... just the meanness and rudeness of the waitress is just a major TURN-OFF. I have been going to Pho21 for over 15years. It is our neighborhood Pho place. But man!, the rudeness never changed. In the beginning we accepted it and and even made a joke that they are like the "Soup Natzis" from the Seinfeld TV show hahaha. But since we went there often, the ladies got to know our faces and started to get softer with us. But every now and then, they get new lady workers and it's back to being rude. I don't think it is so much of a language barrier...because the actions and facial expressions says it all. They are just not happy working or waitressing. And what I noticed is they sound nicer to the Korean customers than the Non-Korean. They are not treating the non-koreans the same as they greet or take order from Korean customers. And even today... this is how the lady(same lady that is the waitress) greeted me when I walked in to the register..."what do you want?". I was like wow... seriously?! I don't know... I love supporting the smaller businesses but maybe SUP Noodle House across the street is a more pleasant place to dine in. Even if I have to pay a few bucks more. Just saying..... :( read more

I have been a regular customer since I was recommended this place a couple years ago. Food is always great and their tea are great too.

Pho 21 - Vietnamese Near Me - Buena Park, California

I'm not a Pho type of guy but my wife and co-workers love this place. I had a Pho with beef ($11.99) and it was good. Wife had a shrimp Pho and she loved it. Chicken Fried Rice was good, maybe lacked a little flavor but not bad. Plenty of fresh veggies, sprouts, basil to add for flavor. Not super friendly but maybe it is a cultural thing. read more

Pho 21 - Beef Pho. Good. - Vietnamese Near Me - Buena Park, California

Michelle is so sweet. Very good service and fast and tasty pho hits the spot in a cold day.

Came for late night eats, and this is a solid place that filled my stomach. Broth is decent and there are lots of noodles. I do wish I had more meat to go with the noodles. The sides included bean sprouts, jalapeño, lime, but didn't have basil or herbs. The pho didn't blow me away, but I was content with the meal. read more

I love pho , just not this place. I have to give it to them that the egg rolls tasted decent.... 5/10 now the pho on the other hand..... tasteless and disappointing tbh no flavor whatsoever, tasted like sink water.... and the bean sprouts they brought out dirty and black... idk there's definitely other spots way better. 2/10 read more

Found a bug in my soup this afternoon. I've informed the waitress about the bug and she said it's from the vegetables. I told her I'm not eating this and she told me I still have to pay. She then seems to not understand English for a minute. I wouldn't go back read more

Leaving knotts at 11 pm we wanted some soup , this place opens until 2AM and only 6 minutes driving distance from knott's berry farm . My first initial thought , how clean the restaurant was, friendly and welcoming wait staff. My girls had their crispy fried egg rolls , they said it was good . I had their fresh spring rolls so light and so refreshing . We ordered some pho soups all size small , small size is plenty big enough for me . Ted our waiter recommend my two youngest 8 and 11 year old share a bowl of pho . We went with his suggestions and boy , he was right . Small size bowl is big for my little ones. Kids enjoyed their soups , it's flavorful. For me it's not enough spices , missing the aroma of star anise, cloves and cinnamon. Either way it beats knotts berry farm nasty and expensive food any-day. read more

I've been coming here for a few years now. The food is super hot, tasty, and the owners are always working so hard to get food out quickly. Open super late and great place to come with friends late at night. They have a good vegetarian/vegan option as well! read more

I think the pho was good but not amazing. I'll agree that the broth wasn't super flavorful but I do think the service was nicer than the yelp is giving credit for. Being open till 3AM also gives this place points. The small and large bowl were almost no different however. The bathroom could also use some cleaning but the front of house was clean and wasn't blaring music which I appreciate. read more

Michelle was the absolute best! She always has a smile on her face and makes sure that the customers are satisfied with their food. Service is always A1. My go-to spot for Pho! read more

Food and service were excellent. Our server was very inviting and attentive. On top of the food tasting good, they give you more than enough per portion which is great! We had a birthday at our table and our server was kind enough to go out of her way to do a little celebration song at the end of our meal. Overall good food and energy all around. read more

The food here is either a hit or a miss. Today I came in and the pho was very tasty! There was a good portion of beef in my pho bo kho (one of my favorites). You have to ask for basil if you want any. It didn't seem very fresh and it was browning a little, which makes me doubt 100% cleanliness. The servers were nice and our sides and bowls came out promptly. It was clean inside and quiet since we came in the afternoon. read more

Pho 21 - Vietnamese Near Me - Buena Park, California

Whenever we are in the LA area we always end up going home past MIDNIGHT . And my son and his friends will always find a way to still not go home so we kept ending up in Raising Canes 'coz they close late and they eat and hang out together more. BUT GLADLY my HUSBAND found this place on YELP called .. " PHO 21 " in BUENA PARK and they close late too !!! When we got into the Plaza where Pho 21 is, it was the only one open around after Midnight but we didn't get scared coz there were a lot of Cars park and customers dining inside. There are plenty of Tables to sit down at, not fancy but lots of food selections still after Midnight . We ordered : * CHARBOILED PORK on STEAM RICE with fried EGG * GRILLED PORK W/ EGGROLL and VERMICELLI noodles * GRILLED PORK SPRING ROLL - grilled Pork, Salad and Noodle * FRIED RICE CHICKEN and SHRIMP * HOUSE SPECIAL SOUP * STIR FRIED NOODLES The Teen's CHARBROILED PORK was seasoned well and tender and had a good size of meat . On my GRILLED PORK w/ VERMICELLI NOODLE, the meats were also well seasoned, and the eggroll that came with it has good Crisp, and Flavorful and the meat was perfect with the vermicelli noodles, and the Fish sauce adds more flavor to it. My GRILLED PORK SPRING ROLL, I noticed it is just what I had on my VERMICELLI Bowl, they just added the Wrapper version. The HOUSE SPECIAL SOUP was tasteful. The STIR FRIED NOODLES were good. It had lots of meats and Shrimps and veggies on it and the noodles are not soggy. The Chicken and Shrimps Fried Rice is also good , I'm the one who mostly ate the Fried Rice coz i pulled it all the way on my side and I enjoyed eating my fried rice that i added sriracha sauce on it ;) STAFF are nice and if you GUYS are in KNOTTS BERRY FARM or DISNEY or coming from UNIVERSAL STUDIO or 6 FLAGS and you are heading South and you are still looking for more food After MIDNIGHT and everything is Closed, come to this place PHO 21. MONDAY to THURSDAY they are open until 1:30 a.m and FRIDAY to SATURDAY until 3:00 a.m and SUNDAY at 2. am. read more

This is the spot to come to!! Open late, great customer service, and the food always hits. It wasn't too busy so my party felt well-taken care of and checked upon. We ordered the well-done brisket pho and the rare steak pho and both bowls were steaming hot and the perfect temperature for colder nights. We also recommend getting the egg rolls to start off (one of my favorites!!). Always such a great time at Pho21 and we will definitely be back soon! Thank you! read more
