    Came here on a Sunday afternoon and it felt like such a nostalgic moment. They're currently offering a promotion where each entree comes with a free drink! I got the pho with just the noodles and soup and a soy milk. The pho came out literally so quick! I also loved that they have the vinegar onions here, which paired great with the pho. I kinda wish I had remembered to ask for the wide noodles, but even with the standard noodles, it was still very good! The staff here are super friendly, and are bilingual, so you can talk to them either in English or Viet. It wasn't too crowded when we went, but the restaurant is pretty large and can fit a ton of people! Their menu is pretty extensive here, with literally all of the common Viet dishes you can think of like com tham, bun, mi, pho, etc. Parking is decent, but can be hard if the plaza is busy. Since we came during nonpeak hours, parking was a breeze!

    Pho tai filet mignon with free thai tea

    I always get the pho tai (rare steak). Last time I tried the premium meat and it was so good! Love that there's options. First time the broth was a bit salty but all others have not been. Every time I've come here there's been a free beverage. I get the thai tea.

    Pho, egg rolls and Thai tea

    I LOVE this place. Servers are very attentive and kind. Food is such good quality and a very chill spot. They offer free Thai teas sometimes.

    I loved: Thai Iced Tea Vietnamese Coffee Pho Ðặc Biệt This was good: Pho Tại + My was my favorite Pho restaurant growing up and it still hits 20 years later $13 dollars for a bowl is insane value in this economy. The drinks are better than I remember, the Thai Iced Tea is the perfect level of sweetness and I really like how concentrated the Việt coffee is (way more than normal). Service is great but I'm also Vietnamese so maybe there's so inherent give because I speak the language. Not only did this place survive the pandemic, I don't think anything's actually changed about the place physically. Same booths and tables I will say that the restroom does smell but is otherwise pretty clean.

    A fast and friendly place to have some delicious Pho . They have a huge selection of different things to eat in here and they serve it up fast and hot . The people here are very nice, the hours go long into the night . The prices are very reasonable and I will continue to come in here for that and many other reasons, plates are big, food is tasty.

    I've been trying to find a good pho spot for a while n i think this one is it. The broth is super rich. The server is a cute old guy and he always attends super good. If you don't know what to get I recommend the #16 it's simple and delicious. Super cheap too $12 for a small that has big portions and an extra .50 for a medium.

    #12 "small" pho

    Been coming here since I was a young teen & it never misses!! Egg rolls are a MUST & of course their pho is the best I've ever had. Price is very reasonable for portion sizes and they are on top of service. My favorite pho spot in all of OC

    Seafood pho
    Maggie C.

    This place is great for late night pho! They close late which is a plus. Ordered the seafood pho and it hit the spot. My bf got the large pho and broth was really good too. Love that the Thai tea has actual tea flavor and it's not all milk.

    Ordered Meat and rice and Vermicelli with meat. All were tasty. The ambiance is ok but the restroom can use some work. They don't ask you if you are good. You would have to flag them down to get something you want. It's order and never get checked on. On the positive note, you get 1 x free drink with your meal. Coke, tea or Thai ice tea of your liking. Food was delicous! Meals were affordable! The Negative, They will not check up on you but still obligated to tip. Restrooms are filthyp. Staff is friendly! Over all I recommend!

    Usually we would have to wait for a table but this time we were able to be seated right away…read more Must order is their Nam Neung Spring rolls. The sweetness of the grilled pork, the crispiness of the eggrolls wrapper bits, and the freshness of the vegetables pairs with the special sauce never fails to satisfy the craving. This time we tried their cheeseburger spring Roasted Duck spring rolls. I am not a duck fan so this was okay to me. The meat was well seasoned with the spices and the hoisin sauce was a nice balance. The crispy Vietnamese eggrolls were also a first and it was great! The meaty and crispiness of the eggrolls eaten like a lettuce wrap with the nuoc Cham sauce was delicious. This place always seems to be busy and rushed and can get a bit loud but the service is always great. They have a bar where you can grab some drinks while you wait. Their lychee martini is good. There is also a dessert display in the front where you check in which we haven't tried yet.

    We just placed an order for 40 nem nuong rolls with Kaitlyn for pickup later in the afternoon…read more Giving her a shoutout for the fast and friendly service. Our family orders nem nuong from this location every time we are in the area, to eat and to bring back home. The nem nuong here are always perfectly rolled and the crunch of the fried wonton strip inside makes it feels like party in your mouth! so good! Note: requesting to cut rolls in half costs extra. We prefer this location compare to the other one because it has faster service, quieter romantic atmosphere and polite attentive staff.

I wanted to order food for 10 people and saw they had party trays. Food looked good online and tasted even better in my mouth!!! I asked for recommendations and she said that the original garlic butter was very popular both regular and spicy so I ordered 48 wings half and half.....DEVOURED. Also got the white rice with fried shallots and garlic noodles....ALL GONE! I'll definitely put them in the rotation when buying lunch for the staff. Oh there was a part of the order that was missed but they took care of it right away. Also parking at the plaza is very busy but there's parking in the back so no problems. They even brought it out to me so I wouldn't have to carry it all around the building. A+ service. If you're in the area and want some good wings...don't hesitate to stop by!

    Arguably one of the best pho places in my opinion. I think this place is older than I am, because…read moreI've been coming here since I was a baby! Over all those years, they have never disappointed me and continue to serve really good food. I usually get the beef brisket pho and it's really good. The noodles are just the right texture, the broth is clean and flavorful, and the meat tastes fresh and tender. Their dui bo is also very good, but usually runs out after 1:00 or 2:00 pm, since they only have a limited amount of this item every day. The meat is fall off the bone tender and has a more fatty flavor to it. It usually sits in some broth that absorbs that beefy and fatty flavor from the bone. A great addition to any bowl of pho. Alternatively, I sometimes also get the bun thit nuong and it's very good. The eggrolls it comes with is wrapped with rice paper, so when it's fried up, it has such a satisfying crunch and texture to it. The thit nuong is has a nice smokey, grilled flavor to it. The shrimps are okay as well. This is a very satisfying and filling dish, so if you're looking for a high volume dish, this may be the one to get. Expect long lines during peak hours. I can confirm though that the wait is worth it! Service is always very good. The ambiance on the inside is fine, very plain and unassuming in my opinion. It's really the pho that shines through at this restaurant. Parking can be a little tricky during peak hours.

    The best pho in OC hands down…read more Came in Sunday afternoon for lunch, lots of parking but busy! Be prepared for parking and maybe to wait. Put your name on the list hanging outside the door and they will call you when ready! We were sat almost immediately though. Inside is a large scale mom and pop shop that is FILLED with people and workers. We ordered a medium and large #23 pho and 2 waters, we got everything not even 5 minutes later. When I tell you this is the BEST broth I've ever had, it blew me away. I'm not one to usually order extra noodles but for this place I would order as many noodles until I ran out of broth, it is that good. Noodles were on the soggier side, I'm not picky about noodles but if you are then this is something to consider. Portions were huge for the price, very happy with that. CASH ONLY. I didn't see an ATM there but I'm sure they had one. Will always recommend and they have a new customer for whenever I'm in OC.
