    Pho Dac biet , cha gio and nem nuong goi cuon
    Tiffany N.

    Visit 1/14/26 Stopped by during the afternoon to eat to pass some traffic on the 91 freeway /15 south .. during 5-7pm is like a parking lot iykyk . Saw this spot on Yelp since the otter pho spot was closed during the week today which was odd . Upon arrival was warmly greeted by staff and placed my order . Restaurant has a huge parking lot and the decor / ambiance is very welcoming & super clean in addition to the staff being attentive and amazing! Pho - Broth was savory and flavorful and lots of meats only one missing was beef balls ... but overall really good . Perfect amount of broth and noodles and proteins . Egg rolls - were fresh and got crispy and crunchy and a lot of filling it was delicious wrapped in the lettuce and herbs and sweet fish sauce . Spring rolls- was decent ... still good but wouldn't order it again . Overall - it was pretty good and quite authentic. Good food quality and affordable . I'd definitely come back and try something else next time .

    Delicious spring rolls

    Great service and good taste for everyone to enjoy today. The chicken wings with special sauce is my favorite. Nice clean fresh shrimp spring rolls. The chicken pho is clear and well balanced with tender thighs and breast meat. Overall a beautiful restaurant in the El Cerrito area of Corona close to hospital and freeway and Walmart Supercenter too. A truly amazing location at the center of everything here. Enjoy the beautiful weather and lush green mountains and free air today. Life is simple and peaceful here. Hope to see you soon.

    New menu for appetizers!   Tasty!   We ordered A1.  This is the appetizer sampler.   Fresh, delish, large portions.

    This is one of our favorite places for lunch. Amazing fast service! Food server was so nice. Suggested new menu and also answered questions we had. Restaurant clean, food top notch! Definitely a "go too" in Corona! Can't wait to come again!

    Cozy local Vietnamese spot that satisfies your pho cravings on a cold day! They offer lots of options including vegetarian entrees but I recommend sticking to their namesake pho dishes! The employers were super nice and helpful and it's located in a plaza so plenty of parking!

    Been here a few times. Try to.find a good place to eat Pho in the Corona area. The soup broth and meat was very flavorful and well presented. The services was exceptional and the prices weren't too bad. On my next visit I'll have to try a Rice dish and maybe some spring rolls.

    Veggie pho and pomegranate iced tea

    The best pho place in town! I've been coming here for 5 years now and it's always very delicious. The staff is always nice, I've never had a bad experience here. They recently expanded their menu so I decided to try a pomegranate tea today to beat this heat and it did not disappoint :p

    Fried Shrimp Rolls

    There's amazing food and not only that but service is very friendly and fast!!! They Recently came out with a new menu and are food items are very tasty! The place has a nice touch inside with pops of fresh plants in each corner. If you have children they have a kids menu as well. Every time I come in I'm greeted with a smile and such politeness. This place is never empty and always has customers coming in and out ! You must come check it out !! :)

    This is our go-to Vietnamese restaurant living in Corona. The service is good and the place is big and clean. Their food is delicious and the pricing isn't that bad. Good for date night, big groups, and families.

    67. Mì Xào mềm Thập Cẩm  A side of onions And their new Brown sugar milk tea boba

    Been coming here for years and more recently with my girlfriend. I love their seafood pho and shrimp vermicelli. Everything is always super good and fresh. Service is always excellent as well as the staff/ servers are amazing. The Environment is nice as well, calm music as well as tom n Jerry on all the time which is gangster asf. Overall a great place to take the fam and just to enjoy yourself as well. Always soooo bomb!!

    Do they use MSG?

    Yes

    Is the number posted correct? I called multiple times to place an order & kept going straight to voicemail

    They are very busy. Especially during dinner take-out hours. Keep trying and they will pick up.

Keep in mind they do not take reservations and only seat you (or prepare to seat you once your full party is present) which is totally fair and honestly not that bad of a wait even on Mother's day. The waitress also offered to take our large order ahead of being seated so there would be minimal time waiting for our food over seated which was very thoughtful. Onto the food, YUM! Our table ordered a variety of their vermicelli bowls (short rib, chicken, grilled pork+shrimp), Pho (special combo and brisket), eggrolls, thai iced tea, and vietnamese iced coffee. Everything we ordered was so delicious and there were generous portions of meat in all of our dishes. The fish sauce that came with the vermicelli bowls was super delicious and tasted so much more flavorful than any other Vietnamese restaurant I've dined at. The pho broth was piping hot and tasted so clean and refreshing. Drinks were also great and I honestly loved everything about today's lunch! I will definitely be coming back with my family and my kids loved all of the food (pho and vermicelli) too!

However, I recently read their reviews and laughed that they give straight peanut butter as a dipping sauce for their spring rolls. That is a big no-no. Anywho, I was going to do takeout and drive home to eat because I had my dogs with me, but after I ordered I saw there was a table outside so I decided to stay. I ordered their salmon special with garlic noodles, spring rolls, and a vietnamese coffee. Total was $33 and I was able to split the portions for lunch and dinner. When I entered I did not speak vietnamese and neither was the employee in the front aware I was viet. After I paid and didn't leave a tip, she said something in vietnamese about either giving me a smaller portion because I didn't leave a tip or just complaining about not receiving a tip. Once I got my food and said thank you in vietnamese, the employee in the front got real quiet. Lmao I sat outside with the fur babies and enjoyed my salmon. It was flavorful but noodles were kind of dry. The spring rolls came in 2. They add avocado, tofu, and jicima in addition to other ingredients. This isn't your traditional spring roll. I can also confirm that dipping sauce is straight peanut butter with not even enough water mixed in to make the texture smooth. Its like getting a cup of peanut butter that is watery on the top and dry and chunky from the middle down. A sauce like this will not be acceptable in the vietnamese community down in Bolsa. Haha! The coffee was also only okay, didn't finish it. I dont think I would drive out of my way to eat here.

The staff was very friendly and they gave me some recommendations as it was my first time. When it's colder I'll have to try their Pho but for now I tried their BBQ short ribs and their spicy chicken plate which came with rice. I loved both dishes! I could tell the ingredients were fresh and they both dishes were flavorful. I do feel like they could've given a little more meat compared to the rice but maybe that's a takeout thing? If you have a large party I would probably call in advance because the space is limited and it was PACKED when I got there. I'm hoping someone will review their Cajun food/crab boil because I want to try that as well.

    As a vegetarian, I truly enjoyed eating here…read more First of all, the menu has a leaf symbol next to the vegetarian dishes which made it easy to scan through the vast number of items on offer. Secondly, it tasted really good. I ordered the vegetarian rice noodles. My only regret is that I didn't tell them I wanted the big flat noodles, so they defaulted to the skinny spaghetti-like ones. Now I know that even if they don't ask, tell them what I'd prefer anyway. Lastly, the portions are big enough to bring leftovers home which is a big deal for me since eating out can be expensive. If I'm paying that much, being able to get a second meal out of it is much appreciated. Parking wasn't an issue. I immediately found one right in front of the restaurant. As for the restaurant itself, it's modern and clean. Beware that if you end up sitting facing the windows like I did, I was blinded by the sun shining off a car window, so I had to scoot all the way inside the booth. It's because the door is made of glass and unlike the other windows it doesn't have signs to block glare. When I was about to leave, I told them there was no more toilet paper in the restroom and they went out of their way to stop what they were doing to get more for me. Apparently, the cabinet inside the restroom was empty, so one of the employees had to call another employee for help and they found more in another cabinet outside the restroom. I quite enjoyed my experience here and just writing this I'm already craving more of the food I had ordered.

Though the servers are friendly, they just seat, you, take your order and deliver your food. That's it. they don't come back to check on you or clear away dirty plates. I saw this with the tables around us. So we only tipped 10% as they didn't care to "serve" us. Our pho came quickly but we had to wait awhile for the basil/sprouts/jalapenos and lime, which were a skimpy. We waited so long we got up to ask if we were going to get any and they said yes, it's on it's way. All pho restaurants bring that plate out immediately after ordering. A heaping plate. Would have been nice if they told us this platter was on it's way. We were partially through our bowl when it arrived. I ordered my usual, Pho Tai. Most pho places serve the thinly sliced beef rare, over the hot broth and noodles. I would swish it in the broth and it's cooked. This place broth the beef fully cooked, not thinly (not shaved) sliced and the meat was of poor quality. Very tough. The broth was good but not much flavor. No check was presented, so we assumed we have to go up front to pay. That's when the server got up from a booth where she was relaxing to check us out. Again, hence the 10% tip.
