    Came across this gem while traveling for work in atascadero. From the first time I tried the combination pho, it was delicious! That made me keep coming back every chance I get. Friendly staff always greet us with a smile. Food comes out quick and hot! Peaceful environment overall. Very much recommended.

    Food was absolutely delicious I got the combination pho and I've tried the bahn Mih I'm not sure if that's how you spell it but the sandwich is so very delicious and fresh!! Customer service is always soooo good very attentive! The vibes are always calming and very pleasant overall I've been coming to this place for a year now and I absolutely recommend!!

    Bánh Mì

    THE BEST BAHN MI IN THE COUNTY!!! The popcorn is also always delicious!! The pho is consistently good they also have really good chicken curry!! Service is always very prompt and the staff is super friendly and helpful!!

    I ordered a pho noodles soup yesterday, nothing else the bill came out to be little over $21. The flavor is nothing special, kind of plain, the instant pho bought in grocery stores has better flavor. What surprised me is the amount of meat in it, I ordered steak and meat ball combo, they put three thin slices of beef and one meat ball cut in half. Kind of disappointed about the quality of the food. Not worth it!

    Was craving for pho after a hike. It was okay though and very hot inside the place. But at least we were able to eat outdoors!

    beef pho

    Giving this place three stars because it's not the greatest but it definitely satisfies the pho fix. The pho itself is quite tasty and I would come back again to try their other options, however the broth was somewhat lacking. Once I added some sriracha and salt it was great but as is the broth definitely is missing a little something. But if you want pho this is the place to go. Their popcorn chicken however... I was expecting something super crunchy loaded with flavor and it lacked both. The batter itself was lacking salt which didn't help when there was zero crunch to the chicken at all. It wasn't drenched in oil but definitely soggy and not as crunchy as it could've been. Also the portion amount for $10 is a tad diabolical, especially when it wasn't that tasty. Overall, I would just come here for the pho, but I feel as though the appetizers are not worth it for the money you pay (based on the pictures i saw online) They do however have a chicken curry and bahn mi that I will be coming back to try. I will say that customer service and speed is great so that is definitely a plus. Will def be coming back, but propably not for any appetizers.

    The spring rolls were excellent, very fresh and unique with a crunchy add-in. Also split a Bah-Mi sandwich, made for a nice light lunch. Service was friendly and thoughtful bringing ice water without asking on a 95F day. Clean shop with 8 tables inside and several outside.

    Beef pho

    Got beef pho, good for the area, but not the best pho I've ever had. The service was great and so friendly! There are some tables inside and outside if you want to sit outside. I'd go here again when I'm craving pho in the central coast!

    Vegan Pho with Beef Broth substitute.

    Just fantastic Pho! I got the Vegan Pho, but substituted beef broth instead of veggie. I was impressed by the freshness, portion size and flavor. The broth was delicious on its own, and the addition of fried tofu and some cooked but not soft veggies really hit the spot. I will definitely return!

    Pho 4 U is a charming spot with a cute, cozy vibe. The Vietnamese drama or music videos playing in the restaurant add to the warm, "auntie's shop" atmosphere, making it a welcoming place to dine. Food This is definitely my favorite pho place in Atascadero. The pho is especially great during winter--fulfilling and savory with well-made, chewy noodles and delicious brisket cuts. The meats in the soup are the standout, adding rich flavor to the broth and fatty beef bites. The spring rolls are a must-try, particularly the ones with wontons inside. They're incredibly tasty and addictive, with the shrimp pairing perfectly for a fresh, satisfying bite. The peanut dip complements them well. The pork spring rolls were just okay. Service The staff is super kind and fun! Location The shop has a cute, French-inspired vibe and a quaint location, though parking can be scarce. I recommend visiting in the evenings for better parking availability. The surrounding city scene is also perfect for a nice walk after enjoying your meal. Overall Pho 4 U is a delightful spot with great food, especially the pho and spring rolls. The ambiance, friendly staff, and charming location make it a favorite in Atascadero.

    I am sorry but this was the most disappointing pho i've ever had. The broth was bland, but like unappetizing level bland. The meat was tough and did not taste good, even hoisin sauce couldn't save the dish. Their sriracha has a weird off taste to it, couldn't bother with it, I understand it's off brand but definitely not a good choice. I came in hungry and left feeling worse than when I came in. The ambiance was very dull and dead, but that isn't much of a factor when you consider the food. I would rather go to Al Pho or At Bites, but even those definitely aren't the top standard. I would recommend picking up Quoc Viet Pho soup base instead and making it at home 100%.

You order at the counter and are given a number. Since they weren't very busy, they brought the food to my table, which I appreciated. The prices were on the high side, though fairly typical for many Vietnamese restaurants in California. I ordered the pork platter with rice and fried egg rolls. The portion size was about right. The rice was fine--nothing particularly memorable. The pork was a generous serving and had visible grill marks, but it didn't seem freshly grilled. It appeared to have been grilled previously and then reheated. It was served hot, but the texture and presentation were not what I would expect from freshly grilled meat. Fresh off the grill would have made a noticeable difference. The egg rolls were crispy on the outside, but the filling was dry and fairly unremarkable. They weren't bad, but they weren't a standout item either. The plate also came with iceberg lettuce, sliced tomato, cucumber, and pickled carrot and radish. The cucumber was fine, while the pickled vegetables were a bit more sour than I prefer. The biggest surprise was the dipping sauce for the egg rolls. Instead of the typical Vietnamese dipping sauce, which is usually one of my favorite parts of the meal, this version had quite a bit of chili added and was much spicier than expected. Some people may enjoy that, but it wasn't what I was anticipating. Overall, the meal was good, but not memorable enough to justify going out of my way for it. The prices felt a little high given the fast-food atmosphere. If I happened to be in the area again, I might stop in and give it another try, but I wouldn't make a special trip to return.

That being said, we had a pleasant experience here. It's clean. It's bright from sunlight (not industrial lighting) inside. There are booths and tables so small or large party-flexible. Got a friendly greeting from the owner (maybe?). You pay when you go in, before you sit down, so there's no waiting for your check. If you'd like beer or wine (only wine by the bottle, but it's $16.10 a bottle - Copper Ridge), you buy that at the front, too. I had a Tsing Tao beer for $4.50. Self-serve tea in plastic mugs, which is just okay. It's a multi- row buffet with a lot of choices. We went for Friday night dinner, at 5:30. It had a few big tables of families and some small groups at the booths. I most enjoyed the salt and peppered pork, sesame balls, veggie spring rolls, and all the wok-cooked dishes with vegetables (like beef with broccoli and the wok-cooked green beans), which were perfectly cooked, fresh, and not too salty. The house special rib (a flat cut, not like a spare rib) was in a very exotic magenta sweet/spicy sauce and was worth a taste. There was a dish of fried salt and pepper in-shell shrimp, which I would have tried if I had felt like shelling shrimp. My partner said the steamed peel-and-eat shrimp were also very good. I was impressed with the fresh salad bar's cucumber slices, and fresh honeydew and cantaloupe, which all looked very nice. I would skip the noodles and the egg flower soup. Oh, and the soft-serve vanilla ice cream with sauces was very fun. There were many kinds of cookies that I wasn't familiar with that were fun to try: a vanilla wafer with cream cookie, and an almond cookie. The empty dishes were cleared quickly. It was a good value at $23(ish) per adult for dinner on the weekend. Different prices for lunch. We will be back!

I was halfway through a really good meal, enjoying myself, and then there it was. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. I also couldn't eat one more bite. The food itself was delicious and full of flavor. My pad see-ew was rich and caramelized from the sweet soy sauce, loaded with veggies and silky bits of egg. The Thai iced tea was perfect on a warm evening. I also love their cozy outdoor seating tucked just down the street from the bay. Note: there's no indoor seating. The hair was most likely an isolated incident, but it still happened to me. And what sucks is how easily this could be avoided. The woman who handed me my food, who I'm pretty sure was the chef, had very long black hair pulled up, but not fully secured. If it had been, this would've been a five star review instead of an extremely disappointing two. There's nothing wrong with this place, but hair wrapped around your noodles is simply unacceptable.
