DON'T. Came here twice to change my opinions of the place because I wanted to love this place... Yeah, still not the business. The other location off UNIVERSITY Pho Ha #7 is WAAAAAY better, modern, cleaner and taste more authentic and they don't over cook the noodles. I'm a huge pho snob and I'm not about the Rubbery over done noodles life. Obviously you would have to be drunk AF to enjoy this place. Even my Drunk self wouldn't drop a foot in here Ever again. Broth is either bland or too Salty. Honestly you guys should not waste your efforts eating here at all. Just DON'T! read more

One of favorite pho places. Flavor of the both is deep and flavorful. Also tried the new item #37, hot pot rice dish. It was flavorful and filling. Recommended read more

This is by far the best pho that I've ever have. I wish I can give them 5 stars but sorry the service sucks. The food is great here. And one thing I like is they're open as early as 9AM when most of restaurants are close. The food they serve really fast. It's just across the street from Galleria at Tyler (Tyler Mall). My usual orders: Spring rolls - so good with peanut sauce Pork rolls - my daughter's favorite Wonton soup with egg noodle Pork BBQ Com chi bu luc luc - sizzling filet mignon Salt and pepper shrimp All delicious! read more

Be careful of fraudulent charges! My credit card was charged by this restaurant a few weeks after I last visited. At first I didn't notice because it was a small charge (less than $5), but I recalled the name of the restaurant and the bank later confirmed it was this establishment in Riverside. I called the restaurant to ask about the fraudulent charge but the person answering the phone claimed the manager or owner is rarely in the restaurant! Absolutely no help. My card is now cancelled and I'm waiting for a replacement. What crooks! read more

Ordered spring rolls and Pho with tofu, pick up phone order. Food was packed separately. Literally took 10mins! It was fresh and delicious!!! Fall is here! Perfect time for Pho. Needs to work on phone order skills. The man was not rude just really short with me on the phone, he hung up on me before I could give him my name. read more

Good authentic Vietnamese food! When I say authentic, I mean they don't care too much to speak good/any English. However, they sure make some tasty a$$ dishes. Ordered Bahn Mi with BBQ pork (only BBQ pork taste good) for about $5. Meat and vegetables added compliment each other very well. Wife ordered chopped steak that comes in a sizzling iron plate. Really worth it considering how cheap and decent the meal portions are! read more

Dirty place and if u complain the staff calls u a liar. I'll take my food without bugs thank u. read more

So disappointing. First, i called in my order..the following is the conversation " hi i'd like to order 2 chicken pho" i just got a grunt for a response and they hung up the phone. I walked in 15 mins later unsure if they even received my order. The cashier barked the amount to me which i paid and an old angry man walked out of the kitchen yelled something and threw 2 bags on a table. The cashier just pointed at the bags. Such bad rude service...but if the food is really good sometimes you can overlook the service. But nope... I got home and there was scarcely any chewy dry chicken ,a little clump of noodles that wouldn't separate, no flavor soup and no chilies. I will never go back there's to many good pho places around to have to put up with rude ass ppl and bad food. read more

Pho Ha - Horrible service and bad food. Chewy chicken and clump of noodles. No flavor broth. - Vietnamese Near Me - Riverside, California

IF you are looking for a Vietnamese food this is the place to go. WeI ordered No. 39 Sizzling Dice Steak with Rice and Vermicelli with Barbecue Pork. Awesome taste. Smoothies drinks are from fresh fruits like Avocado, Mangoes and Durian. read more

My friends and I came here after class looking for some comfort food. I ordered the #1 and some pork spring rolls. They didn't have shrimp paste rolls but instead added some shrimp into my pork rolls and accommodated the situation which I really appreciated. Their Vietnamese coffee is incredibly strong and I thought it was pretty good. Worth the $5? No, not really but it's good to get once in a while. The pho was beyond amazing given the fact it's riverside(no offense). The broth was very deep in taste and warmed my entire body. It was really good and the price was fair. I will definitely be back for more! Customer service 3/5. But I usually don't expect much ;) read more

Where do these people get their manners? Sour puss faces on all staff and very rude delivery snd presentation. Too bad because the pho is delicious but no need fir us to feel like we are an imposition. I hope this place folds read more

This place has the fastest service!! I go in here multiple times per week for lunch because they are across the street and I dont go anywhere else. super inexpensive, and very friendly staff. their rare steak pho and shrimp spring rolls are my goto. could probably feed a whole family with that order any it usually ends up being less than $20. amazing. read more

This is my go to place. I've tried other pho spots in town and it just isn't the same. Service has always been good to me and the food is good. Always order the pho tai and bang mi bo. Pho has flavor and sandwich is good for the price that you pay. Oh btw the way there smoothies are off the hook. Best smoothies in town. Other places they are water down or doesn't taste like a real Viet smoothie but this place nailed it. Rating 4 because the appetizer are kinda pricey and I want a big fan of the egg rolls as it didn't meet my expectations of a real viet egg roll. read more

Been eating at Pho Ha since I was a kid. Used to go to the one in San Bernardino when I used to live out there. But since I've moved to Riverside I go to this one. Always great to come here especially when your sick. Pho is always a cure for my bf when he get a cold. But for me I don't eat beef so I love getting pork with tiny vermicelli. read more

The customer service here is so horrible! The workers are so rude! The food is ehh.. My boyfriend ordered bun bo hue and they forgot to bring him his veggies so when he asked for it and they brought him a plate with a couple of pieces of cabbage on it.. That's it?? Is this a joke?? Where's the rest of the veggies, chili and lime?? Next, I ordered mi wonton with a side of chicken... omg this was the worst side of chicken I've seen in my entire life. They gave me a small plate of dried up shredded chicken as my side... it was sooo gross and looked like leftover chicken from the night before with the brown around the edges. I wished I would of taken a pic of it to show you how ridiculous nasty it looked.. Overall experience was horrible. Everyone working here seems to hate their life and that's why they are so rude to their customers.. Their food tastes gross and they are stingy on everything.. Definitely not coming back. read more

I came on a Saturday night, with party of three and the restaurant was less than half full. This is my second visit, it's been a couple of years since my first. Congratulations Pho Ha! In two years you still haven't managed to understand the concept that when customers order something labeled as "appetizer", it is expected before the entree! LOL We received our spring rolls almost 10 minutes after we started on our entrees. Luckily it was prepared well and tasted fresh. As others have commented. Their customer service was lacking. No one looked happy to be working there let alone to serve you, their customer. But this is par-for-the-course like most mom-and-pop asian restaurants, so I wasn't surprised. The food was good but nothing special. The BBQ pork vermicelli dish was flavorful. Portion size was satisfactory. This place would not be my first choice in Riverside for Pho dishes though. The highlight of my visit was that the menu was easy to understand and had plenty of pictures for reference. This is uncommon of most Asian restaurants, kudos! Bottom line: Beggars can't be choosers. This place opens late, so when you have a craving for Vietnamese food, you really don't have much choice around. I think they know this too. read more

Great food, horrible service on the phone and inside restaurant. I only go because I love the food but honestly I'm trying to look for a different pho because there service sucks read more

I've went to this place a couple of times, and I just don't like going here. The food is good, but coming from a biased and Vietnamese background, my dad makes better pho than this place. I actually remembered that they didn't put green onions in my pho. CUSTOMER SERVICE (Since everyone is talking about it) I don't want to ring the bell again, but I feel like I have to share my experience. I went with my brother and we sat ourselves because that's what we always do at pho restaurants. I ordered Pho Dac Biet and my brother ordered Bo Luc Lac. I noticed another gentleman coming shortly after us and sat on the other side of the place. When my brother got his food, I was confused as to why my pho didnt come also. Next thing I see is the guy, who came after us, gets his pho AND spring rolls. I'm all sitting slouched back in my chair waiting for my food and give a death stare to the waitress. She looks at me a couple of times and then grew a conscience and told me that my soup was coming. A couple of minutes later I get my pho and I ate it. I went to a pho restaurant.....I order pho.....and I got my pho later than someone who came after me....WHO ALSO ORDERED PHO! I go pay for our meals to the register guy and he gives me the check. I write " $0.00" for the tip and as I was writing the total, I can see him shaking his head and looking at the waitress through my peripherals. I didn't care one bit, and I don't think I will ever come back here again. I truly think this family-owned business is just flat out tired of working there. Almost all of the staff just doesn't seem motivated to provided any type of service. read more

Food is pretty decent for Riverside but the service is absolutely crap. I'm freaking Asian and deal with shitty service at Asian places all the time but this place takes the cake. It's getting to the point where I don't want to come here to eat because it's so frustrating! Oh and now I get lovely veined shrimp. read more

Pho Ha - Number 57 - Vietnamese Near Me - Riverside, California

Food : Fresh Service: The waiter took our order and I was surprised she wasn't writing my order down. I was hoping she didn't forget anything. SURE ENOUGH , my meal didn't come with shrimp like I asked & my order of eggrolls didn't come until I asked for it. The waiters weren't attentive to the customers in the store & were all just sitting down together eating their lunch. **Reason for 2 stars because of service** Would I recommend ? Only if you don't care about customer service read more

I got a rare beef pho and it was alright. The broth was pretty good but as far as the meat, I could really tell that it has previously been frozen. The one thing liked about the broth was that it was piping hot cause I do not like dealing with some lukewarm stuff so I really enjoyed that. Customer service is alright I mean you gotta flag them down to come to your table but they usually see you and come right away. Bill does not come to your table you must go up to the cashier and pay. read more

Love the food; very tasty. The employees are so grumpy. The servers never smile and are basically rude. However I have been there several times because the vegetables are fresh and have a great flavor. read more

I have been here for years but after today, I will never step foot in here again. I ordered the charbroiled pork spring roll with peanut sauce. When it came, it looked different, so I asked the lady that brought it out if it was what I ordered. She said yes. The spring roll didnt have bbq charbroiled pork in it. Instead, there were sliced pan fried sausages in there with cucumber and lettuce. Barely any ingredients and they were charging $7 for it. Total RIP off. It is what it is. Lesson learned. Rude customer service and bland food. Dont waste your money here. Go somewhere else. read more

Best pho restaurant in Riverside They are very fast too, once you order it take only 5 min for the Pho noodle to come out. I also like their combo luc lac. Beef. Their price is very fair + they closed very late at 10 pm read more

My fiancé and I went here the other night . When we got there we were quickly seated, but that's when it got bad.. It took them 10mins later to come give us a menu. Once we were ready we had to search for someone to take our orders. Normally we expect to wait 20 mins for our food but Then it was a 40min wait period for our food to come out, we were irritated and ready to leave. Once the food came out, they brought the wrong soup to him and he sent it back for the correct one. They didn't even bring us our drinks till half way through our meal. It wasn't even busy to have such slow service... Long story short, the next morning my fiancé couldnt hold down anything , not even water and went to the hospital with food poisoning. Not saying it's from this place but the timing of this seems odd .. definitely never going back!! I HIGHLY would recommend Pho Star Bowl! read more

Service was trash like the food. Cashier was very rude and rushy. Will not be returning.

I'm all about supporting local small business vz large corporations. So I was happy to find that this restaurant was open and with dine-in option available. After a long day after work the husband and I went in. In addition to a bowl of Pho and my crispy noodles, we decided to also split an order of charbroiled pork rolls. When our food started to come out, we recognized everything but the rolls. Imagine our surprise when I saw sliced sausage under the rice wrap. When we proceeded to question what they served us as that was definetely not what we ordered, we were told that yes, those were the same thing as what we had ordered from the menu. We let the plate sit for another 10sec before we called the staff back and again questioned the rolls. Except this time we were told that it was infact pork rolls. At this point we are verbally insisting that we were served sausage rolls, not Charbroiled pork (my husband even asked 'wheres the char' so the sausage was prob nuked). We ended up having them take the food back but unfortunately that wasn't without murmuring under their breath as they removed the dish, never followed up to see if the rest of the food was okay and also never refilled our drinks. Needlees to say that we paid, said thank you, left and will never return. read more

Pho Ha - What I ordered vs What I got - Vietnamese Near Me - Riverside, California

No way dude, no way! MSG saturated broth is a no no. Don't believe me? Ask for a smaller bowl and scoop 3-4 spoonfuls out. Let the soup stand for 5 minutes and viola! Brown powder at the base of the bowl. The server will say that it's bone marrow. Uh..No! That might work on the round eye, but I'm Asian, and I make bone marrow soup at home. Bone marrow floats majestically and has a much different consistency. And bone marrow doesn't give you a headache or dry your mouth like MSG has been chronicled to do. When I first reviewed this place, I was brand new to Yelp and brand new to differentiating quality from quantity. Value doesn't necessarily have an economic connotation with me now. The importance of value is directly related to quality of ingredients. This is a "quantity" type of place. There's a pho spot on La Sierra that's the best in Riverside. Look it up on Yelp. After you've recovered from your MSG headache... read more

Good pho, Chicken fried rice Clean restaurant if I'm ever around the area I would come back. The food also taste clean most pho restaurants the food taste odd or even dirty. But in this case it's clean tasty fell while eating read more

FLAWLESS. It's been long over due since I've been here. Definitely going to stop by the next time I visit the 909/951 area. Pho Vinam, Pho Express, Pho Nancy, Pho 99, and especially Pho Saigon all have disappointed me, but thanks to Pho Ha, I don't have to drive out to Westminster just for high quality pho. ___________________ PHO (4.5 stars): This place spells M-S-G. But ohh man it's so good. Prepare to knock out after a bowl. BO LUC LAC (5 stars): Cubed beef sizzling on hot plate. This one's the second to best next to my popster's. Too bad they don't cook their steaks w/ beer like my pop does. HU TIEU (5 stars): Best one you'll taste in ghettofabulous r side. ___________________ The women here are really friendly. They not only try to know their customers, but become friends with them too. I remember back when I just moved out of Riverside and into Corona, they exchanged numbers with me and suggested to hang out since they lived a block down. *SideNote* For those of you who live all the way out in MoVal, there's one on Alessandro where Pho Nancy used to be. read more

This place is horrible customer service sucks we basically sat ourselves and didnt bother to ask us if we wanted drinks We called waiter ourself because it took him too long to Approache us.
