    It's a hometown staple that's been around since I was a kid. The service is fast and the food is good. I love the bun bowls here more than the soup lately that's just a preference of mine since the weather is a bit warmer lately. They've done a good job with the updating /remod over the years. This place also can get packed during peak meal hours.

    Pho with Tofu & Broccoli (here, with beef broth--you can choose vegetable broth), rare steak, and (free) white onions
    Hiroshi S.

    This is place has been a staple for us and our tofu and broccoli loving friends. I usually get the pho tai (pho with rare steak) but always feel jealous of the tofu and broccoli: today, for the first time I found my perfect order--just get the side of rare steak and add it in (*epiphany*) and have the best of both worlds. Silky pho noodles, exquisite broth, family owned, indoor and outdoor seating (with heaters for cold days), fast friendly service! Parking can sometimes be a challenge, but that's never stopped us, and we've never waited for more than a few minutes.

    Pho Tasty is a no frills, legit, and authentic Vietnamese eatery in the Artesia area. They have their own parking lot here with a decent amount of parking spots. Inside, they have a modest setup with a good amount of seating. For their menu, they have all of the classics to choose from. I got the Com Ga Roti and wifey got the Combination Pho. You really cannot go wrong with anything you order here. There is a reason why this spot has over 2,000+ positive reviews. Pho Tasty is Viet gang approved!

    Another Revisit. Great as always. It was a rainy Christmas Eve, this place opened up at 11am sharp. Entered and had the option to pick my own table. Just had one thing in mind which was a Pho Combo soup large. 5 minutes passes and wala! Received my combo large. Nothing short of this experience. Was treated nicely. The staff is very professional. Excellent choice for pho. Parking lot gets crowded, definitely this place is the spot in cerritos!! You won't be dissapointed.

    We came here on a Friday night and got seated right away. Parking can be a bit of a challenge as it is small and a bit tight. Restrooms are available and are clean. Customer service was attentive and our food came out in good timing. My beef and rice had tons of flavor and the crispy egg rolls hit the spot!

    Located in Artesia off Pioneer and South Street, Pho Tasty is a local's spot for a pretty good bowl of pho. It's pretty no frills, but the broth is aromatic, it's loaded with flavor, and you have everything you need at the table to get the balance you want. Cost of a bowl of pho has gone up significantly over the years; however, that's unfortunately the case everywhere. A small bowl of pho dac biet is $13 and a large bowl is $15. The biggest difference between the two sizes is that the large bowl has a ridiculous amount of rice noodles. If you don't need a double (or possibly triple) portion of rice noodles, then the small is good. I do like having varied textures in the pho dac biet from tripe, tendon, and meatballs; however, if you only want brisket, then you can get your bowl of pho for about $1-2 cheaper. I also like to get a side order of pickled onions to give a nice acidic kick to my meat and soup. We also usually get an order of their pork and shrimp spring rolls ($8 for 2) and they're OK. This is a good place for a good bowl of pho that doesn't try to be over the top. The prices are OK and it will always be busy during peak hours.

    Came here for dinner around 5:30, which I thought was early, but the place was already packed and busy. The parking lot is pretty small, but we managed to snag a spot. We waited about 10 minutes before getting seated. I ordered the pho dac biet (regular), and the broth was super flavorful -- didn't even need to add hoisin sauce. I just tossed in some chilis and sriracha to make it spicy, and it was perfect. Our food came out really fast too; they took our order right away and everything hit the table shortly after. Overall, a solid pho spot with great broth, quick service, and a lively atmosphere. I'd definitely come back!

    First time here and it was really good! When I got here there was quite a wait, but the wait is definitely worth it. The staff is really busy and they do their best. Now the food, the pho is really really good. The broth is super clean and they give you a big portion! I got the #11 (not pictured) with rare steak and brisket, the charbroiled pork chop (not pictured) - but this was the best pork chop I have at pho restaurants, definitely getting this again. And lastly the egg roll and spring rolls which can never go wrong! Overall, everything here was phenomenal

    I've ordered takeout from here a few times, for Vietnamese, love this place! Just picked up dinner. It's priced fair, good portions, parking lot always seems to be packed. The food was fresh, ready quick, staff nice as usual. If you want Pho around the Cerritos or neighboring areas, I highly recommend this place. Has a great vibe and feel for a restaurant if you eat-in, like a unique family restaurant.

    Thai Tea and the Pho with brisket and steak.
    Samantha I.

    If you're looking for a restaurant that will get you in and out quickly, this is a great option. It was a weekend night at 8 o'clock, so I was worried we would have to wait a while. But despite the restaurant being packed with people and a little loud, they immediately seated us. The service throughout was very fast, and we had our food within no time. We both got the classic pho; however, I got mine with steak, and my boyfriend got his with brisket. We also got the eggrolls, and he got a Thai tea. The steak was very tender and juicy, and the eggrolls were probably some of the best I've had. Overall, I loved this restaurant and would come again, especially if I had a cold and needed some Pho to cure me!

    Carrie W.

    This is a good place to satisfy your taste for some pho! Service was fast, good portions, flavor was on point. Really nothing to complain about. Everything came out really quickly. We got some egg rolls for our appetizers and it was hot and fresh. Just some classic delicious egg rolls with fish sauce as your dipping sauce. Pho was flavorful and broth was hot. They gave a lot of meat even in the regular. The large was huge. We honestly could've shared. If you are feeling a bowl of pho, give this place a try. I know there are a lot of options around but this place does it right with real fast service!

    pho with rare steak & brisket = $12.00 for a small
    Trung N.

    3.5 stars There are many things I like about Pho Tasty. For one, the wait isn't too aggressive and there's a space with seats should you have to wait. Secondly, it's so cheap here. To start, we shared an order of the charbroiled pork patty rolls ($8.00 for 2). These are like regular spring rolls, but sub the shrimp and pork. The charbroiled pork patty rolls (nem) comes rolled with greens and vermicelli noodles + peanut sauce. These were good - there was nice char on the pork patty rolls. I ordered #11 - rare steak and brisket ($12.00 for a regular). Obviously the better value is the special combo ($15.00 for a large) where you get a bigger bowl of pho with a variety of meat. I appreciated that the pieces of meat were cut into sizable pieces and there was plenty per bowl. The broth fell a little short for me. It didn't have that oomph that you seek when you're eating pho. It was a very okay bowl of pho. Definitely tasty and satiating.

    5A. Crispy Vietnamese Egg Rolls with Lettuce Wraps
    Juan G.

    Stopped by Pho Tasty in Artesia and was pleasantly surprised! I ordered the mango smoothie, and it was so good -- super refreshing for a hot summer day. The crispy Vietnamese egg rolls with lettuce wraps and noodles were a solid 10/10. Wrapping it all together was amazing -- perfect crunch, flavor, and freshness in every bite. For my main, I got the #6, and the broth was incredibly flavorful -- rich, comforting, and perfectly balanced. Honestly, it was so good I forgot to take a picture (a true sign of great food). Service was quick and attentive. I was really thirsty, and they refilled my water without me even having to ask once. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to!

Unfortunately, they didn't make it. After we came back off of lockdown, I remember driving around a two mile radius near the Cerritos Mall trying different places. They were open, but none of them served oxtail pho which is my preference for the nutrient density. Then I found Pho Pioneer, and I couldn't have been more impressed from day one. I'm a pretty low key, chill person. I prefer speakeasy vibes, quiet spaces, and traditional spots and this place checks every box. The service is great. The woman who runs the restaurant has always been incredibly sweet and welcoming. It makes a difference when you feel genuinely appreciated as a customer. I also love the art and photos on the walls, and the fish tank is a whole experience on its own. There's nothing quite like eight creepily beautiful fish judging you while you're sipping pho and recovering from a cold. Pho Pioneer has become one of my go to spots, and I'm grateful I found it.

I waited perhaps 4-5 minutes until an employee came out. I almost walked out, but ultimately, I was glad I stayed! I got the house special/ pho dac biet in the large size (13.95 vs $12.95 for a reg size). The bowl came out hot and the noodles were al dente. The ratio of meat to noodles was on par/ ideal. They were a little skimpy on the amount of noodles. The broth had a nice balance of beef and pho spice aromas and taste. It was topped with plenty of green onions and cilantro. The downside is the service, portion since that large size wasn't enough for me, and the tendons were too tough. It felt more like a regular sized bowl than a large. I couldn't hear what the employee said every time there was an interaction except at the very end when she said thank you. The restroom hallway was dark and I had to use my phone flashlight, not sure if they just turned it off to conserve energy? But it was so dark, it could've been bad. My overall take is, don't let the appearance of the place and service deter you. If you're craving pho, give this place a try! I could tell, they put some lovin' in it!

I just found it overall a bit aggressive and over seasoned, with not a lot of layers or subtleties in taste, which is usually a sign to me that the cook is substituting salty strong flavors in the place of more depth of flavors. So it's kind of like catering to a lower common denominator and that approach may satisfy many, without anyone really being impressed by the result. But perhaps expecting subtle refined flavors is too high a bar for a chain type of Asian food place - maybe. While I did like the noodles and the sauce, the filet mignon entree portion was something more along the lines of what I'd find/expect at a Panda Express. Which isn't terrible, as I like Panda, but I just expected more with the high rating. The place is clean and modern and seemed newer, but the overall vibe was more impersonal, quick-serve, corporate. If someone wanted to meet and eat here, I'd be fine with it. But I also wouldn't go out of my way to eat here or necessarily suggest it if I were meeting a friend out for lunch.
