    Dac 1. Special Combo : Slices of Steak, Flank, Lean Brisket , Fatty Brisket & Beef Meatballs / Phở Đặc Biệt
    Duan D.

    This cozy little place is right across from the golden arches it's easy to miss at night as their sign isn't lit up. I came in a little later in the evening so I was able to be seated quickly and order taken. Ordered the special (Dac Biet) pho bowl and it only comes in a large size. I always try the broth first before doctoring it up and it was really good clean tasting broth. You do get a lot of different cuts off the beef in this bowl, I want to say it's a good ratio between meat and the rice noodles. Price is comparable for this special bowl. It's definitely worth a visit as they offer a ton of other Vietnamese dishes as well as what stores to be Cajun menu items.

    A.2 Shrimp and Pork Spring Rolls (2 Rolls) / Gỏi Cuốn (2 Cuốn)
    Gladys P.

    Came here for the grilled pork banh mi and I was not disappointed. The bread was crisp, not chewy. The pork was flavorful. The veggies (carrot, daikon, cucumber and cilantro) were fresh. Also had the shrimp and pork spring rolls, they were delicious. Great service.

    2. Slices of Steak / Phở Tái

    Best pho spot I've had in Corona/Norco! I would definitely recommend the Number 2. It's cheaper than the other pho spots around, and it has a very welcoming environment. The food is always delicious, and the portions are great for the price!

    1. Special Combo : Slices of Steak, Flank, Lean Brisket , Fatty Brisket & Beef Meatballs / Phở Đặc Biệt. My FAVE!!

    I've had lots of Pho in the area that is really good, but Pho Rex on Hidden Valley in Norco is by far the best! Always fresh and super tasty. My favorite is the #1 Special with all the meats, with TONS of chili oil to give it a nice kick. One thing I want to add...their egg rolls are TO DIE FOR!!! I sometimes just order a couple of orders to-go because I crave them all the time!

    This spot right off hidden Valley Parkway is sure to satisfy your cravings for Vietnamese food. My personal favorite is the grilled chicken with white rice dish. It comes with a small side of sweet and spicy sauce that I absolutely just love. The Banh mi is also on point. If you haven't had a Banh mi yet, please be sure to order it. Banh Mi is a fusion French style baguettes and Vietnamese grilling perfection. It usually comes with a whole slew of veggies and Mayo. My favorite part is when I take a bite and includes a crispy jalapeño slice with just the right amount of spice. Additionally, their shrimp- spring rolls dipped in peanut sauce are a must have. They provide a refreshing lightweight snack that makes you feel healthy while eating something delicious. I love the service here. There was a miscommunication in my order, but the staff was happy to resolve it and take care of me. The dining experience is also pleasant. If you're looking for a cute little set up for casual dining, this is your spot. I haven't tried the pho yet, but I'm eager to return.

    i placed my order for a pork banh mi online and headed over immediately for pick up, thinking i'd have to sit and wait but it was ready! service was very quick and the cashier was super sweet. the restaurant was clean and the menu looked great. they have vietnamese food and cajun boil! will definitely come back to try the cajun boil.

    Pho combination

    As you can see it's was so delicious I had nothing left. Definitely worth a visit if u are a pho lover The service was fast and amazing also very peaceful and calm

    First I want to say. I love to support my local businesses but this place I have been trying to give them so many chances but they have failed me. As you can see in my picture pho special and missing a few toppings. Also The price increase and the meat is less. Rather drive a little bit further out and better foods.

    Good!
    Susie T.

    Wow! This place is awesome! When I first went inside, they didn't allow dogs, but they had outdoor seating! Perfect for my babies. The service was good and they were so nice. 5 stars bc the food is outright delicious! My husband and I are looking to buy me another car. I'm trying to convince my husband that M8 looks good with me! Ha ha ha. Well. You know how that goes. Car shopping is exhausting and you need food in the tummy! I was hungry! I ordered this pancake fried noodle thing with a stir shrimp, chicken, and beef. It had veggies and baby corn. Omg! So good! The flavor is explosive! It was one of the best things I ate so far this year! I also got chicken wings as an appetizer. The breading was perfect! It juat needed more flavor! I love the vietnamese fish sauce flavor. Love that sweet and salty! My husband got the pho dac biet. To be honest, the flavor made me feel it was good ol authentic pho BUT it didn't have the meat dac biet comes with. I'm not sure if this pho is catered to non asian demographic, but I wish the tendons, flank, and fatty brisket were all there. Other than that. The food here is super! I will definitely come again and try their cajun! It just looks so good!

    Best pho broth I've ever had. The broth is very golden brown but clear without any oil or fat. Beef spring rolls are very good.

    Not bad but not the best pho, I wouldn't recommend getting the spring rolls. Egg rolls aren't bad.

    Cold day? PHO! Have a cold? PHO!…read moreI'm a pho connoisseur. I love looking for the best broth flavors- not too much cumin, hearty but not salty. They nail it here. We keep coming back. Service is pretty quick and you order at the counter. The space itself isn't very large but they usually always have seating available.

    After taking my dogs to the doggy park nearby, I decided to grab some vietnamese food. The area is…read morenostalgic to me because I used live here but I dont remember eating here much. However, I recently read their reviews and laughed that they give straight peanut butter as a dipping sauce for their spring rolls. That is a big no-no. Anywho, I was going to do takeout and drive home to eat because I had my dogs with me, but after I ordered I saw there was a table outside so I decided to stay. I ordered their salmon special with garlic noodles, spring rolls, and a vietnamese coffee. Total was $33 and I was able to split the portions for lunch and dinner. When I entered I did not speak vietnamese and neither was the employee in the front aware I was viet. After I paid and didn't leave a tip, she said something in vietnamese about either giving me a smaller portion because I didn't leave a tip or just complaining about not receiving a tip. Once I got my food and said thank you in vietnamese, the employee in the front got real quiet. Lmao I sat outside with the fur babies and enjoyed my salmon. It was flavorful but noodles were kind of dry. The spring rolls came in 2. They add avocado, tofu, and jicima in addition to other ingredients. This isn't your traditional spring roll. I can also confirm that dipping sauce is straight peanut butter with not even enough water mixed in to make the texture smooth. Its like getting a cup of peanut butter that is watery on the top and dry and chunky from the middle down. A sauce like this will not be acceptable in the vietnamese community down in Bolsa. Haha! The coffee was also only okay, didn't finish it. I dont think I would drive out of my way to eat here.

Keep in mind they do not take reservations and only seat you (or prepare to seat you once your full party is present) which is totally fair and honestly not that bad of a wait even on Mother's day. The waitress also offered to take our large order ahead of being seated so there would be minimal time waiting for our food over seated which was very thoughtful. Onto the food, YUM! Our table ordered a variety of their vermicelli bowls (short rib, chicken, grilled pork+shrimp), Pho (special combo and brisket), eggrolls, thai iced tea, and vietnamese iced coffee. Everything we ordered was so delicious and there were generous portions of meat in all of our dishes. The fish sauce that came with the vermicelli bowls was super delicious and tasted so much more flavorful than any other Vietnamese restaurant I've dined at. The pho broth was piping hot and tasted so clean and refreshing. Drinks were also great and I honestly loved everything about today's lunch! I will definitely be coming back with my family and my kids loved all of the food (pho and vermicelli) too!

I'm scared and intrigued. I'm happy to report back I will admit I jumped to conclusions. The vermicelli was delicious and we ordered both grilled pork and beef; IMO beef was tastier. The portions were generous and the veggies were crisp and fresh! The fries were crispy and the beef was very tender. This would be a great dish to share because of the mountain of fries! The seafood by the pound sparked my interest because I'm a fan of Boiling Crab. I got the cajun house special sauce medium. You can also pick garlic butter or lemon pepper for your sauce option. It came out super saucy and thick..good but not comparable to BC. This had more of an Asian stir fry sauce feel. The staff were very attentive and came frequently enough to check on the table for water, etc. I appreciated the gloves for my shrimp since it was so saucy. The restaurant was half full, mild white noise...you could still hear each other. Solid 4 stars. Thumbs up from us! $13.50 Vermicelli / bun with 1 meat $11.49 Beef garlic butter fries $15.99/lb whole shrimp $8 Banh mi
