This is my go to Vietnamese restaurant in the area. I dine in and order takeout from here pretty often! Their service is always on top of it and my order is always ready for pick up if I'm ordering out. The pho is good quality and they offer some less common Vietnamese food items, which is nice when I'm missing my grandma's home cooking. read more

My brother and I were craving a pho so we went here and order a pho. It was a good pho. read more

See all

I was pleasantly surprised. Delicious Pho and steak with rice. It was a little difficult to find, as it is facing the main road and not in the mini strip mall parking lot as is indicated on the Apple map. Prices are good and the staff is extremely friendly. Highly recommended. read more

Great pho place. Got much cleaner since the last owners. Dont know if thats a good thing at a pho restaurant. Pho tastes great. Havent really tried much else. read more

Disappointing ordered something for pick up and the steak was raw. I don't know how you can serve your to go like that. It's gross! The egg rolls are also not fresh they're old I don't know what the hype about it was. Spent 60 dollars for all the food that we ordered and not satisfied at all. I want my money back. I felt ripped off! read more

So glad that we found this place. Near to Ikea so our go to restaurant after shopping. Decent foods and great service!

The employees were nice but my stomach has not stop hurting since I left here. I'm pretty sure it's food poisoning. My sister was with me and is complaining that her stomach is hurting also. The food wasn't flavorful at all. read more

Coming back home from surfing and looking for good pho. This happens to be on my way home and glad to find a decent spot to take care of my growling stomach. Good place to brunch. Got thai ice tea togo in one spot. Now, time to take a nap at home read more

DO NOT EAT HERE. DISGUSTING. I've ate at this business on more than one occasion and I'm sad to say That I will no longer be eating their anymore. On one occasion I found a piece of shrimp shell in my chicken pho and told the host about it and all she could tell me was sorry. Last night I found a Fly in my food and all they did was refund that meal instead of the whole bill which only included one other pho. This establishment is not caring for their guest. Either you spend money not. I'd rather spend my money with people who actually give a damn about the people they serve instead of looking at them just as dollar signs. I WILL NEVER BE DINING AT THIS RESTAURANT AGAIN. and I would advise others not to do so. There is another Pho spot down the way called Pho Daily that is much better as well as one on Hawthorne BLVD called Saigon Dish that customer service is the best I have ever had. read more

Pho Crystal - Fly in food. - Vietnamese Near Me - Carson, California

I would give it a better rating but bowl size has been reduced also I was trying to get table switched and waiter didn't allow us

Located across the street from Southbay Pavillion. It's like in a small shopping center with many medical offices, but on the other side? We weren't able to find parking where the restaurant was, so we parked in the shopping center with the medical offices. Visited on a Friday around 12:45pm with my friend. Parking was plentiful as the complex isn't large or busy. The signage is a bit confusing. Apparently, this placed used to be called Pho King Way, but changed it's name to Pho Crystal 3 after new ownership. However, there are signs for both, so my friend and I thought it was strange to have neighboring pho shops (we're not from the area). We walked in to find they were the same restaurant lol we were immediately greeted by an employee who led us to our table when we walked in. There were maybe 6-7 other small parties in the restaurant with 3 visible employees - they wear a royal blue shirt! Our server gave us a few minutes to look over the menu. I ordered the small pho with brisket (pho chin) and my friend ordered the large combo pho (pho dac biet). Service is very quick. They put a lime slice in your iced water cup. Water was brought out quickly along with the plate with bean sprouts/veggies. Utensils available at each table were also clean! Soon enough, our food was delivered. The broth is a bit bland and did not have a strong beef flavor. (Granted, I am very used to the pho from the Westminster area where people love salt LOL). There was an adequate amount of brisket, but there was waay too much broth in both bowls. They use thin pho noodles, and there was a lot of that too. The noodles were slightly undercooked (still hard and attached to each other), making it a task to break them up. At the end of the meal, they provided complimentary dessert - it's like this soupy sweetness with tiny tapioca pearls. Great service. Average pho. pretty clean. Probably will not return. Total for both bowls was about $20. read more

Amazing rare steak pho. Thai iced tea is delicious and the egg rolls are will definitely be coming back

Love it ! One of my favorites of Pho around. J tried something different today Shrimp Crab Cakes? Well amazing. The pho was so hot and tasty broth. Service was excellent with only 3 people working. Take notes people! read more

Reasonably priced, fast and friendly service and delicious food. Chicken in the Chicken Vermicelli was so well seasoned, which was so nice. The French Bread for the Bahn Mi is perfectly crisp on the outside and fluffy in the middle, best enjoyed ASAP. Sorry I didn't include a photo, I ate all of the food before I wrote this review! read more

The comparisons to the other place are naturally going to happen. For those that left 1 or 2 stars b/c of so called bland broth, you guys are just plain not smart. Know what you're eating and talking about before you grade and be so ignorantly negative. 1st, the old place used MSG. On top of that, the darker color and adding to the so-called taste was due to overcooking of the broth. More salty because it was overcooked and adding MSG led to what you called more 'flavorful'. That's not good quality soup. Service is wayyyyyyyyy better. People actually speak to you. They understand you. And they can be understood. Presentation of the restaurant and food is better. The facility is 10 times cleaner. Quality of food is night and day. So Much Better Now! The current owners are doing it right by not putting in old meat, using old vegetables obviously sitting around for a few/several days. I also had the pork chops with rice and there was no shortage of rice for me. Not just 1 slice of cucumber and tomato but 2 fresh slices of each. The taste and quality of the pork was really good. Downside - portions are smaller in the Pho. Definitely less noodles which is fine by me. Hard to say if the meet is the same portion or not. Before I ate 1 small bowl and I'd be full. Now I ate 1 small bowl and 2.5 egg rolls and was equally full. Place is good. Simple as that. People shouldn't be downgrading b/c of comparisons to the old place. It's a new place. New restaurant. Grade it on its own merits. I'm a fan of the new restaurant. Quality and service downright good. read more

I used to come here 1-2 times a week before it changed ownership. Now I'll probably never return. The new pho is just bland yellow broth with very little noodles and protein. The portion size of the $9 bowl is laughable. read more

They have vegetarian pho options!!! Let me start off by saying, I was a Blue Lotus customers for years before I turned vegetarian. After that I stopped going because they don't have a vegetarian pho option. When I saw Pho Crystal 3 had a V pho option I immediately went ahead and ordered it. They have 2 options for V pho, broccoli tofu and a vegetable pho with vegetable broth. The man on the phone said it would be done in 5 minutes! Great service and very friendly staff. When I ordered the Vegetable pho it came with a whole bunch of vegetables! (Bok choy, carrots it was say better than I expected and for a reasonable price (10.00)! I put my own V hoisin and sriracha for preference, but the pho taste great and I'm so happy I can get V pho locally now! Needless to say I'll be coming back!! read more

We went back to Pho Crystal 3 to give them another try. There is improvement since the last time we went there. More noodles than before however the soup was lukewarm. The texture of the cooked beef was rather grainy and chewy. I found one thin piece of tripe. Still needs improvement before they can catch up to their predecessor Pho King Way. May be that is why by comparison, there are not as many diners in the restaurant. Disappointed that they do not serve the real Vietnamese drip coffee. The cold coffee taste slightly burnt. Good service. read more

I try the shrimp pho it was really good. I really recommend pho crystal 3 is a family restaurant.

Asked for take out, the other night # 3 Pho with rare meat was very good, but Stir Fry # 44 (shrimp) was mediocre, lacked flavor and not enough sauce for amount of dry noodles. read more

Order a large pho, u get a lot of soup with thin noodle which is alright. The worst thing is you only get four small thin slice of meats. read more

Pho Crystal - Vietnamese Near Me - Carson, California

I called to make an order. A few minutes later i call to add 2 more plates to the order. The guy on the phone literally said "next time only call once and make one order". So I cancelled and told him that isn't a way to talk to customers, especially when im adding more business. read more

Pretty good! Came here expecting to see the old pho place. But experience and food was good! Definitely will be a new pho spot for me!

So good! I came here once with a friend and have been coming very often since then. I order the veggie pho with veggie broth! The customer service is good. There is a guy who works there that has a sour face when Asked for something. It kind of makes me uncomfortable! But the waitress is really sweet and nice and serves the food with a good manner. Everything is to my standard. Fast and delicious food with great service. MINUS that weird dude with the attitude. read more

I am really picky when it comes to Vietnamese food as I feel no one is better than my dad. We normally go to Cerritos or Rosemead to get get our favorite dishes. My husband and I went to IKEA and decided to try this place out. I'm so glad we don't go off of other peoples reviews lol this place is bomb. The meat is super flavorful. We had their pork sandwiches, traditional pho, beef/ shrimp/ egg roll vermicelli, egg rolls, pork chop and rice plate, and 2 Vietnamese coffees. read more

Stopped by after our trip to Ikea across the street. We were really hungry & didn't have high expectations but were actually quite surprised. The food is authentic, delicious, reasonably priced and there's great customer service! Ordered the seafood pho, chicken bahn mi and egg rolls. So good! And they give you this warm tapioca pudding as complimentary dessert (it's sooooo delicious!) will definitely stop by when I'm back in the area. read more

My fave pho spot is Golden Deli in SGV. But since it's closed for their annual shutdown, I decided to venture out and give another place a shot. Found them on Ig, all looks delicious so I was hoping the hype was worth the drive over there. I got the beef broth with veggies pho; egg rolls/lettuce; sliced onions; and shrimp spring rolls. To my surprise, veggie pho soup was pretty tasty and filled with yummy veggies and noodles! Didn't taste or look like sock water(I'm jaded from other pho spots). Egg rolls are a bit small and can't really taste filling, but would still order again. Not a fan of the spring rolls, but it's just me, I prefer eating warm rolls with soup. I picked up order, didn't have time to sit and eat there, so food does travel good. I do always reheat soup at home(liquid only) before pouring on to veggies and noodles. Restaurant is located on the outside of small plaza. No outdoor seating. Friendly staff. read more

I love this place and I'm so glad they are here! The Pho is delicious and the service is always fast and friendly! I come here often and I've always had an enjoyable and pleasant dining experience! read more

The food here is fantastic. I chose the traditional combo and it is awesome. The beef broth is flavorful. The vermicelli looks beautiful and tasty as well. The portion of the foods is fulfilling. read more

Good Pho but not enough meat. I've ordered the pho with tripe (Dirt Cheap Meat!) and received only a few slivers with lots of noodles. Broth is very good but I won't be back until they take their heads out of their asses. The former Pho restaurant in the same location failed to make it because they clung to the ever-present practice among restaurants that fail...LET'S CUT BACK ON PORTIONS to make more money, rather the recipe of the successful restaurateur of MAKE MORE MONEY BY SELLING MORE FOOD! read more
