    Pho Chin Gau

    One of my favorite places for Pho. If you ever have a hangover Pho is the medicine lol. This place has great pho and the price is good. Everything we have tried by far at this place has been delicious. It's a family owned restaurant, service is fast and the food is delicious.

    Curry

    Ordered the chicken curry and it was not edible. The curry was extremely watery with no thickness whatsoever. The chicken looked questionable and the potatoes looked previously frozen. Very upsetting.

    First time here and it was okay. I felt that everything could've been more flavorful. The banh xeo was over cooked. It didn't look too burnt but when I ate it, it definitely tasted burnt. The restaurant was empty and quiet.

I've ordered both to go and dine in here and ran into a few problems.. The 3 times I ordered to go or delivery, the soup completely melted through the paper bowl and soaked everything else that was in the bag completely ruining everything else that I ordered. I don't know why they're the only pho place that doesn't use the plastic containers but they should switch to it because the paper container just isn't cutting it. The few times I've dined here I got seated right away but then waited 15 minutes just to put an order for water and then another 15 minutes to order food. That's a pretty long wait considering there weren't many other people dining in - just 2 other tables and me, and there's usually not too many people dining in in the first place so the slow service makes no sense. Luckily the food is good and is a pretty standard pho. The environment is clean and quiet, it's just the service times that need to be worked on.

They weren't very busy for lunch, but the weather doesn't really call for pho as much! I was interested in their Banh Xeo but we also did try their Pho Dac Biet to see if we would like the pho here. Banh Xeo (3.5/5): This was great, and so refreshing with lettuce wraps and mints. The banh Xeo remained super crispy and was so yummy with the fish sauce. My complaint was that the pork was dry and the lettuce had some wilted edges, which I was wary about. Other than that the shrimp inside and batter was delicious. Pho Dac Biet (3.5/5): Clean broth and not too salty. The bowls came with brisket, tendon, meatballs, and some flank meat. Minimal veggies were offered. Overall, a little more quality and freshness in the ingredients would serve this dining experience better! My family did enjoy the food and the flavors are all there.

Parking can be tight sometimes but we usually find a spot close enough. Their bun bo nuong (beef vermacelli with eggrolls) has been especially our go-to lately during this summer heat!

Disclaimer: Had I not been part of a large gathering that was coming here, I doubt I ever would have come to this buffet. Pros: They had the World Cup playing on a "2017 New" 36ish inch TV with the tags still on it The food was mostly hot The cream cheese wontons were delicious, creamy, and crispy Cons: I tried like 11 items, and only the cream cheese wontons were hittin'. Out of the 11 items I tried, only 3-4 items were passable as decent The food was salty The black pepper chicken tasted like fish The food ended up giving my bubble guts the bubble guts-SHEESH! While there were loads of offerings, which I appreciate, the organization of said offerings were a bit strange. The hibachi was set-up going left to right, while the food stations on either side of it were going right to left, creating this crazy clash of people heading in opposite directions. It just wasn't for me.

California Health and Safety Code § 113961(b) requires ready-to-eat food to be handled without bare-hand contact, using a barrier such as gloves, tongs, deli tissue, or another appropriate utensil. Last night, I came in and ended up giving my food away because I was so uncomfortable with what I saw. After cleaning the restroom, an employee immediately went over to handle and cut my fruit with her bare hands and then served it to me. That was extremely concerning from a food-safety standpoint. Employees are being paid to prepare and serve food safely, and basic sanitation should be the bare minimum when handling fresh produce and other ready-to-eat foods. I have photos showing employees handling food with their bare hands. I plan to contact the manager and, depending on how this is addressed, the San Diego County health department as well. The food quality and sanitation standards seem to have gone downhill. I hope management takes this seriously and corrects the issue immediately. There's absolutely no reason why any bare hand should be touching customers, fruit or food. This is supposed to be marketed as "fresh food @ and produce, but it loses that quality as soon as employees touch with their bare hands they are not at their house preparing food they're at an establishment. Please call them out if they're handling your food with their bare hands that is illegal
