Temecula is a bit of an odd place in terms of quality of food since it's been getting more and more traction / a lot of things are coming to this town. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience and service is textbook Vietnamese pho place vibes and it passed with flying colors in my book.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The pho we got had an amazing quality of broth, and that is all I needed to know in terms of food quality for pho. I need to come back when I have a pho craving soon. read more

Pho Minh - Soup Near Me - Temecula, California

I can't believe after my last review 3 yeas ago, I have to come back and make an update that is quite different from the raving review I made originally. The food quality and taste has drastically changed for the worse. We hadn't been here in a while but decided to order today. I'm not sure if the cook has changed but everything we ordered was terrible. We ordered Pho with rare beef tendon and brisket....Bi cuon (pork/pork skin spring rolls)...Com tam suon bi cha (broken rice, grilled pork chop, pork egg loaf and shredded pork/pork skin) The issues: 1) All the meat in each dish we ordered didn't taste fresh and had a strange after taste. 2) The Pho was absolutely terrible! The broth was so dark and tasted SO SWEET!!! It literally tasted like Bo Kho (beef stew) Pho should not be that sweet. I'm not exaggerating either. I had to force myself to at least eat the noodles so I at least ate something. They also gave us no bean sprouts, basil, limes and jalapeños for the side garnishes. As I'm writing this review I can feel my stomach hurting as the Pho is settling inside. I am so upset about this!!!! 2) Bi cuon: Again, the meat didn't taste fresh. 3) Com Tam Suon Bi Cha: Meat not fresh, strong after taste. Also tasted like leftovers. Also, the amount of MSG is enormous and I'm trying to get it out of my system asap!!! Unfortunately this will be the last time we come here. I really hope you take into consideration everything I said as a Vietnamese person that knows how Vietnamese food should taste. My reviews are honest. When it was delicious you saw my original review. Now something drastically has changed and I hope you guys figure it out and fast. read more

My friends and I were in the mood for sushi and the place we came across ended up being closed. Right next door was Pho Minh and it was pretty busy inside, but we were seated right away. The staff were friendly and took our order after giving us some time to look over the menu. I was so torn on what I wanted to eat, but decided to get the eggs rolls as an appetizer. For my entree, I chose to do the Bahn mi special that includes a Thai iced tea or Vietnamese coffee and a Bahn mi sandwich for $13. I got the Thai iced tea which was delicious and creamy. The Bahn mi sandwich with beef was also so flavorful. It's a good size sandwich and I ended up eating most of it. Next time, I have to get the Pho! read more

This was my third visit and the first time dining in. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was quite nice for a Friday evening, and not packed with patrons but a constant flow of customers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ordered the #3 and a #5, very surprised to receive our order in minutes, pipping hot in metal bowls! Lots of noodles and a generous portion of meats. The zoo was really delicious but the broth was little too sweet for my liking! On previous visits I ordered takeout and my selections were combo meals with rice and crispy appetizers. Great customer service and reasonable prices. Will definitely continue to visit and try some of their numerous entrees read more

Coming from San Diego, I was on the hunt for a good pho place. This place is now my go to. I love the taste of the broth, and flavors of the meats and texture of the noodles. Portion sizes are perfect for what you pay for. I always get pho tai (rare steak), egg rolls & my kids love their chicken and rice dish. We also like their banh mi's (sandwiches). [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tables & serving ware is clean and customer service is efficient.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Didn't wait too long to sit or to get our food. I ordered some of the boba but didn't care for it so I am sticking with their food. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A quaint Vietnamese spot in the middle of Temecula.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Was looking for some comfort food after a day out visiting the wineries, and I was pleasantly surprised to stumble across this spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was pretty full even for around 8 PM, but I was able to get a table quickly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I wasn't even planning to order Pho when I got there, but the smell in the air made me crave it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I wasn't expecting much but the Pho was pretty good, the broth had good flavor, and it was full of meat. The thit nuong didn't look like how I was used to, but it was actually quite delicious! I'd say to skip the nem nuong rolls and the tau hu ky and the chao tom though. It wasn't as good as the other dishes. read more

Stopped by to get a meal before my concert and after studying for 5 hours. Slightly disappointed by the lack of greeting at the door as I walked in. I was met with blanks stares and then pointed to a table. The same young man took my order and was dismissive. A young girl brought me water and said not a word. Luckily the cashier ended up being very nice, so I didn't feel as bad. I got the Pho Tai with additional beef meatballs. Decent for a quick stop. Broth was slightly on the sweeter side. However, there was plenty of rare steak and meatballs, so that was good. Their stainless steel bowls keep the broth very hot, which is also a plus. They also had good chili oil, something I like to look forward to in a Vietnamese restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Decor is your usual Vietnamese restaurant. Nothing too fancy, but it was cute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Pho Minh - Soup Near Me - Temecula, California

Had my first visit here with a crew of coworkers. Apparently this place is normally pretty mellow on weekdays, but for our Thursday visit it was packed! The rain and cold weather made it an easy restaurant match for many of us.. Small location, but they utilize the space well for dine-in customers. The service was phenomenal! Greeted immediately upon entering, they managed to put a table together for our larger party. Our waitress got our orders down to a T, every plate/bowl came out perfectly. I found the combination fried rice was really good. Nice mix of flavors. The eggs rolls were a let down for our table, no one cared for the taste. One the other hand, the charbroiled pork spring rolls were a hit! If seeking an appetizer, you have found a pleasant choice.. I got a bowl of the chicken pho with the clear noodles. I kept it plain jane, didn't load up on extras. The flavor was still all there, and I was feeling good eating it.. Priced right at about $125 for our party of 5. With all of us having an entree and the couple appetizers we got, I wont complain. read more

Pho Minh - 44. Egg Rolls, 48. Fried Chicken Wing, 8. Tái Nạm Gầu - Soup Near Me - Temecula, California

Service was quick and friendly. Just stopped by for quick bite. My wife and I split the 4 Fresh spring rolls with peanut sauce (i always mix mine with siracha to give it a bite). It was served with shredded lettuce, but we asked for Romaines leave to wrap in as is typical for fried rolls, and the were happy to satisfy our request. We then Had a Chicken Banh Mi sandwich. If you haven't had banh mi before, try one. The bread is on like a crunchy outside soft inside french roll. The give a good portion of meat and veggies. I asked for extra jalapenos on the side...again, no questions and no upcharge. Very satisified. Prices were very reasonable...under $8 for the sandwich! We will return again. read more

Some items are hit-or-miss. The menu is crazy wide with a bunch of different options, so you're bound to find something you like. For a place with phở in its name, I had high expectations for their phở. After giving it a try, I'm almost certain that the owners are not Vietnamese because my chicken phở didn't come with a side of fish sauce. CHICKEN PHỞ ALWAYS COMES WITH A SIDE OF FISH SAUCE. It's almost a crime not to include it, and the waiter looked at me funny when I asked for it. Weird. * #19 Chicken Phở: 6/10 - no fish sauce, and the broth wasn't very rich * #87 Assorted Grilled Meat & Vermicelli: 8/10 - good portion and nice variety of proteins and veggies [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior was nice, and they have a decent amount of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The parking lot has plenty of spaces, but I can definitely see it getting crowded at peak times like dinner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not terrible, but probably not our first choice. read more

Love this spot. Food was super delish, servers are fast and friendly. Portion size was super good- we really enjoyed everything. Egg rolls were a lil too sweet, the shrimp/pork, but the spring rolls were delightful, and peanut sauce was so delish. We wanted the beef bone soup but they just ran out. Everything was pretty amazing though- highly recommended. read more

If you're looking for a spot that prioritizes exceptional food over flashy decor, this place absolutely delivers. The restaurant has a no-frills vibe--clean, simple, and comfortable. There's some light decor to give it character, but nothing over-the-top, which honestly works in its favor. It lets the food speak for itself, and wow, does it speak loudly. The pho is the star here. The broth is deeply flavorful with a perfectly balanced profile--savory without being too salty, subtle spice, gentle sweetness, a touch of tang, and beautifully layered notes of mint and anise. It's the kind of broth you want to sip slowly because every spoonful tastes intentional and refined. The mixed grill meat pairs wonderfully with the noodles and fresh veggies, adding richness and texture that complements the pho rather than overpowering it. Everything feels well thought out and harmonious on the plate. The shrimp spring roll was fresh and delicious, with nicely cooked shrimp and crisp veggies. The peanut sauce had great flavor, though it leaned a bit on the salty side--but still enjoyable and far from a deal-breaker. Don't skip the Vietnamese coffee. It has the perfect strength and bold flavor--rich, smooth, and just the right amount of intensity to finish the meal strong. Beyond the food, the experience was solid all around. The restaurant was clean inside and out, with plenty of parking available in the shopping complex (a huge plus). Service was quick, accurate, and friendly--the servers were attentive, accommodating, and made the experience feel welcoming without hovering. Overall, this is the kind of place you'll keep coming back to--not for trendy aesthetics, but for consistently great food, efficient service, and a comfortable, no-nonsense dining experience. Highly recommended. read more

Being out in Temecula, generally people are looking for wine, Italian, or american barbecue as that is often what is most popular in the semi-rural town. However, we decided to try something different and found our way to Pho Minh. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was quick and standard, and nothing too out of the ordinary of a walk in strip mall restaurant, but seating was well available despite it seeming to be relatively busy the night we went.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered the Tau Hu Ki, Chao Tom, Charbroiled Pork Spring Rolls, and the Bun Bo Nuong. Everything was very tasty, but the highlight was certainly the Bun Bo Nuong, which was incredibly tender and served with wonderfully fresh vegetables. My one issue was that I felt as though the sauces served on the side were not as good as many other Vietnamese restaurants I have been to, but since they were served on the side, that didn't pose any real issue. Really nice spot with affordable prices and a great place to get some yummy Vietnamese food to enhance your Temecula experience if you are visiting! read more

Growing up in the 805, spending 20 yrs in the 619 area and making frequent visits to the 415 and 714 over the past 2 decades, I'd like to think I know good Pho spots. Been living in the area for the past 6 yrs. This is the only place in T-town with comparable Pho AND other main dishes to the previously mentioned area codes. (We've tried them all). They make you feel like family and serve, in my opinion, authentic Viet comfort food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Don't sleep on this spot. It can get pretty busy at dinner time, so plan accordingly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I really enjoyed the food, the flavors and how warm everything comes out is just right. The spring rolls are filled with shrimp and pork,the peanut sauce was good and not watered down.

It was a Sunday evening after enjoying a full day at the Temecula wineries. My friends and I decided to get some pho to warm us up from the rain. Therefore, we stumble across Pho Minh. This spot was super crazy busy! So I'm assuming it must be that good. We didn't wait too long to get seated. Service was fast and quick. I ordered a big bowl of pho with meatballs. Definitely can see what the hype is all about! Broth had so much flavor you didn't need any additional sauce. Of course, I added bean sprouts, basil leaves, and limes. It hit the spot. Good way to end the night with some delicious pho! read more

Pho Minh - Beef Meatballs Pho - Soup Near Me - Temecula, California

Lately, my soul's been screaming "I NEED PHO" louder than my stomach at 3 a.m. cravings... so I answered the call at Pho Minh. Their #4 combo is basically the Avengers of pho meats: rare steak (Iron Man), lean brisket (Captain America), well-done flank (Hulk smash), tendon (Black Widow elegance), and tripe (Doctor Strange...bc it's a lil' weird but magical). The broth? Liquid therapy.... it was piping hot and rich enough to pay my student loans in umami!! The meat to noodle ratio? Generous!!! I was halfway through the bowl and questioning if I was emotionally okay before this meal (spoiler: I was not). Service was...fine. They refilled my drink like a polite robot. No small talk, no banter... just hydration and vibes. But honestly, the pho did all the emotional labor, so I ain't mad. Would I go back? Yes, absolutely!!Would I write poetry about that broth? Already did!! Highly recommend!!! read more

Today was the day in which Pho Minh had its chance to redeem itself from our two half ass past experiences. And to be fair this was the first time we actually dined in the restaurant. Chowing down in person made a huge difference. Excellent service from the get go. Placed in a booth and water rushed to our table. Making sure we were settled in our server sauntered over to our table and took our order. Adventurous as we are we ordered our well known shrimp spring rolls with peanut sauce and "wait for it" Pho Ga. Spring rolls make their way out but this time our server swaggers over to us. Wife notices there is a shit load of shrimp in each roll. The peanut sauce however is not banging and needs some added spice. We get a bite of the roll and here gallops our server with our Pho Ga. This soup is loaded with chicken and oodles of tasty noodles. They even added toasted garlic to the pho. This broth is serious. Tasty as is but explodes with flavor after I add chili oil and some fish sauce. The portion was big enough that I could not even finish it off. We did not let it go to waste as we filled containers and bagged it to go. Dining in person elevated our dining experience from 3 star to 5 star. Pho Minh did indeed redeem itself. read more

The portions were good to share so we had plenty of leftovers for the next day. We ordered beef vermicelli, bbq pork and broken rice, combination pho (#1), and a bbq pork banh mi.

Still love this place so much! Everything here is always so good and over the top! Highly recommend Bahn Kot and Bahn Beo!

The broth came out piping hot and so flavorful. It's a nice clear broth that came out with plenty of noodles and meat. The tender brisket they have here is so soft and tender. It's a super good quality meat. The salt and pepper shrimp are very tasty. I wish they would actually make it with the shell off, so be aware that if you do order this, it will come with the head and shell and if you're not into that, you may not like it. the shrimp is a very flavorful dish for sure. I give it 3.5 stars. I also tried the spring rolls that have pork and shrimp in it super traditional very tasty. I would give them 4 out of 5 stars for that. Service was good. The pho came out first as it should. Appetizers always come out second because they are preparing everything. The pho is made in large batches so it's basically ready when you get there. It's very clean inside this building. We will be returning soon. read more

My wife and I came to Pho Minh on short notice, craving something comforting, and they absolutely delivered! Their Pho #1 is amazing. The broth was perfectly balanced, savory with a hint of sweetness and....I didn't add anything to it! That's how you know it's good! The ambiance here is cozy and inviting, the service was great too -- quick, friendly, and attentive, which added to the overall experience. Here's a pro tip: Ask for a side of white onions and mix it with hoisin sauce and Sriracha. Dip your meat in that flavorful combo, sip the broth, and take a bite of those delicious noodles. It's a game-changer! Pho Minh definitely brought the comfort we were looking for, and I'll be back for more. Highly recommend if you're in need of a warm, satisfying bowl of pho! read more

This is a solidly average place for pho. It will satisfy your pho craving, but it is nothing to write home about. Coming from Orange County, I was a bit surprised that Temecula had decent pho. I came with a party of 5, and we all ordered pho. The pho was brought out one or two bowls at a time, and one of the servers misspoke about which one they were bringing out, leading it to be served to the wrong person. We didn't realize this until the last bowl of pho came out, and it was not what the last recipient had ordered. The previously misidentified bowl of pho was already sauced up by the person it was given to, but the staff made no effort to remediate their mistake and kind of just awkwardly stood around waiting for us to switch bowls and fix the problem ourselves. My husband also ordered a cherimoya smoothie and asked if it was possible to have it 0% sweet. The server was not sure and went to check with the kitchen, and came back and said yes, it was possible. When the smoothie arrived, it tasted like blended milk (my husband claims there was a cough of cherimoya flavor, but I couldn't taste it). If that was what it was going to taste like, then they should have just said it was not possible to have the drink 0% sweet, especially if they knew they were just going to use a pinch of flavoring powder instead of fresh or frozen fruit. I am used to bad service for Asian establishments, but this particular experience was especially unpleasant. read more
