Pho
Autumn M.

This place is a very cute hole in the wall restaurant. Upon entering, the decor makes this place cozy with a jungle vibe due to the plants. The service was great and the people were very nice. The lemongrass beef spring rolls were some of the best I've had. The beef was super tender and the veggies were very fresh. The broth of the pho was so good that I didn't even need any hoisin sauce. I only added a tiny bit of sriracha and extra extra limes because I love it sour. The meatballs in the soup tasted homemade and were the best I've had so far in California. I am definitely going back there on my next trip back to Murrieta. 10/10 recommend.

The food here is very good. The staff is so welcoming and very nice. Everything came out very quick and the service was super good. This is one of the cheaper pho restaurants that I've been to and I definitely will be back. Thank you !

#12 and spring rolls

Very good! Broth is amazing and staff is super nice and welcoming. Restaurant is always clean! Hope to see more customers come in because more people need to experience their Pho!

#69 Lemongrass BBQ pork vermicelli and shrimp with egg roll croutons
Breanne H.

Recently found this place when I was craving some spring rolls after work and I've been coming here pretty often on my lunch breaks since then. I usually get #69, which is a lemongrass BBQ pork vermicelli salad. So good, it's my go to. I also like to get the BBQ pork spring rolls (#25) instead of the regular steamed shrimp. The prices are not bad, around $15 for an entree. Servers are super nice and attentive as well. 10/10 would recommend :)

Literally the best pho I have ever had. This is coming from someone who grew up near Westminster/garden grove. The family that owns the place even has a kids menu, the sweetest people.

Don't let the fake review score fool you. I entered and was immediately greeted by a very nice, pleasant young man named Kenny, who returned to take my order. My Pho was delivered quickly and hot! All the side accoutrements were provided to include Thai basil, bean sprouts, lime wedges, and sliced jalapeños. It was a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere inside with piano music playing. The Pho Ga #3 was out of this world delicious!! The broth was extremely flavorful. I've been eating Pho for over twenty years and this was the best broth I've ever tasted. This is a family run business. Mom, dad, and the two brothers were there working and extremely friendly. I don't live in the area, but I will surely save this spot in my favorites of great places to eat. Very well priced and worth every cent. Thank you family for the great hospitality. I wish you much success in the years to come.

Spring rolls

One of my favorite places for pho. They are always so quick and delicious! I have been going here for years! It is a family owned business and the service is amazing!

So excited smells good. It was delicious as always. Got the chicken bowl. And a side of spring rolls had to get 2 orders they are so good. Totally recommend this place.

Literally the only place I know that has full bottles of siracha on every table. Lol The bbq pork was dry to me, but has good flavor. The shrimp spring rolls taste fishy for some reason. Doesn't taste fresh to me. My nephew liked the brisket pho a lot. He wants to come back and I will probably try something different on the menu. The service was good - the waiter did not let our water run dry. The place was empty and chill. I think the front cash register has too many signs up. It's funny because you can't see their face.

Found this place on Yelp. Nothing goes better with the rain other than pho. Prices were good. The quality and portions were nice. The taste was delicious. The owner and her son provided excellent service. Nice authentic gem in Murrieta. Definitely will be back soon to try other things. Ohhh...and the water didn't taste like tap water...lol.

They will only allow you to pay with Cash,so don't even bother.

I came into this "restaurant" twice trying to get food. The first time I was calling and calling to place an order, unfortunately, their phone system was down. When I arrived I was also informed their payment system wasn't working either. They would only take cash. I waited about 3 weeks before trying to get food here again. This time I wasn't very hungry so I only wanted to order 1 appetizers which came to $8.49. I was told, "oh unfortunately we only charge cards for $10+, but you can pay with cash." I told them, "I don't have any cash on me and this is the second time I've come and you guys have tried this cash thing." To which the staff replied " well you can order more or order another one." That is crazy to me... I told them "I will not be coming back!" They do not accommodate their customers in any way. This is ridiculous customer service. How frustrating and what a waste of time. They really don't deserve 1 star but I can't give 0.

One of my favorite dishes she had in rotation once was the brisket truffle fried rice. My favorites that are always on the menu are the beef jerky with the yummy garlic green sauce, the yellow curry, and all the noodle dishes. My husband also loves the pork belly with Chinese broccoli.

There was a man , who I thought was the cook all the way in the back of the long kitchen. He saw me come in. I waited few minutes and no one came up to greet or seat me. Then I realized there is a digital screen at the counter next to me, started to realize I have to order food through the screen (again no one came to answer any questions on their own) i finally flagged the guy in the back to ask a question. A few other people came in and went straight to another digital screen around the corner of the counter. I had seen other yelp posts of a lunch menu, I asked the guy that finally came and he said they don't have lunch specials. So they must have got rid of those on the menu a while back. I place my order on the digital screen. No wear did I see carry out or eat-in. I sat on a bench at the front waiting for my food. There was 2 other customers also waiting at this point for food to go. There is only a couple tables inside to sit. Everything is self service - I saw water cups , chopsticks, utensils all just sitting on each table. I ordered a chicken curry dish , the curry was tasty and had a good variety of vegetables but there was some herb in their like small strips that I had to keep picking out because I didn't like the texture. I gave 3 stars because of lack of acknowledgement when coming in , no clear instructions that I had to order on the digital screen. No service for a place that I thought was a sit down restaurant. I suggest this place for to go only orders

I would say all the yelp reviews are right then we also got two bowls for kids they were all very customizable. You could add corn you could add greens.

They have a 2 PM two dollar Boba drink. Also their bowls are gonna be nine dollars for a special period of time. Inside was just nice it wasn't anything too extraordinary.

The servings for me were huge that I could only eat part of it since it was filling. It was fresh & filling. I look forward to returning!

I loved that the lunch plate came with a salad, soup, potsticker, and an egg roll. It's such a great value. At first, the soup looked plain, but once I tried it, I was shocked by how much flavor it had despite being so simple. The salad was very fresh and the dressing was delicious. Everything was served extremely hot, which I appreciated. Even after finishing the salad and soup, I still had to let the chicken cashew nut cool down a bit. A really cute touch was that the rice on my plate was shaped like a heart. Customer service was great, and I will definitely be returning. The inside is nicely decorated and very clean, which is a huge plus for me. I was especially impressed that they had a changing table in the restroom, I wish all restaurants did. If you're in the area, definitely give them a try. The lunch special is a great deal, and they offer many options to choose from.
