This place has the broth. I would consider myself a Pho connoisseur and enthusiast. I am constantly look for the next spots to eat. The broth at Pho Whittier is as good as any broth that I have had many pho experience from Garden Grove, and all over Westminster and Long Beach. None were as good as Pho Whittier. All though I think Pho America in Long Beach is very close. read more

Due to the rainy schedule, my fiancé and I had an urge today. A sudden urge to try a new Pho spot out. Checked a few out, and decided to drive a little further away than our normal place. Needless to say... we will always drive the extra distance to come here! Serving... plentiful, Taste... amazing, Broth... flavorful, Noodles... fresh and steaming! The paste was a little weak, 'tis my only complaint, but that's just a personal preference, I like my food extra spicy. We ordered the grilled chicken spring rolls, again, to try something new, and those didn't fail. Rolls came with a fresh sauce on the side, some sort of a sweet sauce. Service was fast, as soon as we walked in we got seated. The staff was great, got us whatever we needed, and were fast! It quickly got filled up though, by the time we left there were a few groups waiting. We'll be back soon, it's supposed to rain Saturday!!! read more

Phở Whittier - Pho + Grilled Chicken Spring Rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - Whittier, California

Good food but don't order takeout. They let the raw meat sit there instead of putting it in the broth for you. By the time you get home and put the raw meat in the broth its not hot enough. I had to reheat my broth on the stove so I wouldn't eat raw meat. Waste of time I might as well have made soup at home. Do better Pho Whittier you're going to get someone sick read more

The food is delicious, it's been since I've been here but I'm glad I came back. Our server was great, everyone was friendly. It's a small place, but I feel that it's cozy. read more

I returned and I have not been disappointed. I enjoyed my veggie pho with veggie broth and it was delicious. I brought my brother and ordered a number 1, pho that had beef brisket and tripe and he was also very happy. Thank you pho Whittier for a delicious meal, great service, and quick service as well! read more

Bun (vermicelli) was tasty. I got the loaded one w egg roll, shrimp paste, grilled pork, shrimp! Got two different spring rolls for the table which seemed like they had sat a bit too long. And the service was not the greatest today. Not bad. But not good. Def recommend if you want Vietnamese food in the area! But good food overall. read more

First, found a hair in my egg roll. Inside the egg roll with the stuffing, there is a long strand of hair. Second, food for the price is subpar. Maybe it's the area we're in, everything is a bit pricey for the quality youre getting. read more

I just walked out of here with my husband and my two sons. Omg I have to say the Pho here is exquisite. The broth is ridiculously delicious. I never drink the whole soup from the bowl and this one oh gosh hit the spot! The gentlemen that greeted us were so nice, and were on it. Kept walking by to see if we needed anything. Got to say high five to the whole team here! You guys are doing an amazing job!!! I will always come here. read more

Still searching for the perfect spring roll. Not what I was expecting in the spring rolls. Missing certain ingredients that make a true spring roll. Peanut sauce was on point. Bah mi sandwich was okay nothing special. I asked for BBQ Pork got grilled. The sandwich was not even a baguette more of a French roll. Wish K Sandwiches from San Diego would expand out here to LA. Overpriced meh menu items nothing special. If you crave Bah mi sandwich hit up Lees Sandwiches. Will not be coming back. read more

Seafood pho is my favorite! Also their egg rolls and spring rolls are good. The place is clean and the service is quick. It sometimes can get a little full but the wait generally goes by quickly. read more

My fiancee and I were in Whittier running some errands, and I was pretty hungover, when the craving hit me like a bolt of lightning. Only one thing could bring me back from the brink of lethargy and an hours-long headache: PHO! Quickly I jumped on Yelp to see if there were any decent pho spots in Whittier, and this was the highest rated one I could find, and it was just a couple blocks away! We sped over while dreams of rare steak and fresh noodles in piping hot broth filled our minds. First thing I'd tell you about this place: parking sucks. Parking lot is super tiny and very oddly laid out. Would recommend street parking unless you come on a slow day. Second thing I'd tell you about this place: the service is the only reason I docked a star. Sometimes it felt like our requests/orders either weren't being put in at all, or were being put in late. Sometimes we felt invisible. BUT, when it comes to what we're actually on Yelp for: the food? It was very, very good! I especially enjoyed the chicken wings we ordered as an appetizer. Super flavorful, but not OMG SPICY like most places. Much more depth to the flavors on the wings--would absolutely order those again. Both my fiancee and I had the small rare steak pho, and we enjoyed it thoroughly (although I went a little nuts with the chili paste). I also had two Vietnamese iced coffees, which were super light and sweet (but still got me WIRED), just how they should be! Overall I do recommend this place, and will likely return since we visit Whittier fairly often. Just be aware that you may experience some slightly inordinate wait times depending on what day/time you go, and that parking can be a pain, but the food you get will be worth it! read more

I ordered my food for pick up... I was already digging in when all of a sudden.... I found not one, but 2 eyelashes in my pho. This sucked. read more

The best pho around! I come here all the time with my family! It never fails us. The broth is DELICIOUS!

Good food. Prices are a little steep, but what isn't in this recession. Also, most of the time appetizers always arrive after the entrees.

My favorite pho restaurant!!! The pho is amazing and the staff is too. They are always attentive and the food comes out so quick! The menu has a good variety of options (pho as well as chicken, rice, noodles, boba, spring rolls, etc). Some of my favorites are the plain noodle soup, the shrimp fried rice, and the spring rolls! Side note- on days where I want to take my pho to-go, I call ahead and my pho is ready once I arrive. So simple and convenient! Plus, they package the noodles and the broth separately so the noodles don't get soggy. Tastes just as good as it does when dining in! A+ service. I love Pho Whittier!!! read more

I never have a problem! Best pho! I have a pho place 3 min away from my house but I go out of way for this place. read more

Hey Fellow Yelpers, through these difficult times it's hard to find a good spot to satisfy whatever food craving your going through unfortunately for me my craving of boba was not fulfilled although the Thai tea itself was good in flavor the consistency in the boba itself was a bit hard to chew which leads me to believe it was undercooked. Maybe given another chance they can bounce back from this unfortunate visit. read more

I have eaten here before with my son and have had the Pho that I highly recommend. My mom was under the weather so I ordered her the chicken noodle soup via Uber Eats. My mom said her soup smelled delicious and taste very good. Jus what she needed. Anything you order from the menu is delicious. All appetizers are delicious. read more

I would say this is the most authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Whittier plus the owner is Vietnamese so that helps to get the right taste. My go to place in Whittier for some pho. read more

I went to this place because my friend told me that this is one of the only places she knows of to get pho in Whittier. When we went in we were seated immediately so it was nice knowing that we didn't have to wait to be seated. We got our menus and as we discussed the menu they brought water out to us. When we were ready to order, it took them forever to take our order. I want to say we waited a good 10 minutes before they came to our table to take our order. I did appreciate the fact that our appetizers did come out before our entreés and when our entreés came out, they came out at the same time. I got the #1 which is their house special I believe. The broth of the pho was good, but it was not great, it lacked a certain flavor most pho broths had. I did love how hot the soup was because I am a HUGE fan of HOT soup. The noodles were a good portion and the noodles also were cooked well. I would actually order the soup again if I ever decided to come back here. The one thing that bothered me a lot with this place was their service. THEY TAKE FOREVER. When my friend and I came here it was not busy AT ALL yet it took them FOREVER to come to our table to take our order and even longer to give us the check. We needed to ask the server twice to bring us our check cause they forgot the first time. When we paid for the check thank God we had cash cause we both felt like that if we paid with our card they would take forever to ring us up and bring back our receipts. So we paid with cash and left. I feel like the servers need to have a sense of urgency because they are all behind the counter talking to one another or sitting down at the bench/chair in the front of the restaurant... kind of unprofessional in my opinion. The lack of urgency from the servers was a big turn off and also their unprofessionalism. You work in a restaurant, you shouldn't be sitting down in a chair in front of your guests if you are not on your break that's just how I see it. And you also shouldn't be talking to one another THAT much if you have guests you need to attend to. The food here was decent, it's just the service and their lack of professionalism which totally ruined it for me. I most likely won't be back, unless I have a desperate moment where my cravings cause me to cave in and give this place another shot. read more

Phở Whittier - House Pho w/ Tofu Spring Rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - Whittier, California

First time here. I ordered the chicken pho and shrimp spring rolls. I gave three stars for the reasons below: 1) the spring rolls are not good. They had old shredded lettuce that was already turning brown and even the rice paper was just way too chewy. The peanut sauce was not the best. 2) the chicken pho I ordered was actually good the broth is really good but the chicken pieces were a bit too dry and chewy. They need to get better chicken from a better vendor. 3) the service was okay there were 4 employees who literally saw me done with my food and saw me giving that awkward little hand sign for the check and they chose to pretend they didn't see me. I hate that at any restaurant it's just not good customer service and sadly, now I know it's expected at this place. The staff, when they do acknowledge you, are nice at least. I am from and do live in Monterey park and of course my standards for Asian restaurants are a little up there but over all 3 stars . Will I return ? Yes, to try their beef pho. read more

The food here is pretty good for a vietnamese restaurant a little farther away from Westminster. [[ food ]] -Egg Rolls: this comes in an order of 6 eggrolls and we always get this as an appetizer. it's so yummy and the skins are so crispy. the definition of a good vietnamese eggroll for sure. -Bun Thit Nuong: the noodles taste really fresh and the combination of all the flavors in the bowl blend so well together. i definitely put a lot of fish sauce in the bowl and then mix everything together for the perfect bite every single time. -Pho Dac Biet: the broth was sweet and tasteful. they actually give you a lot of meat for the bowl so i definitely think you get your money's worth. [[ service ]] the service is pretty fast, but i feel like we come when there aren't that many people. they even let us order on the phone because we're on a time crunch for lunch. they're always very accommodating and definitely a go-to when i'm craving vietnamese food in the area. read more

Go here a lot, never disappointed with the food. Pho and fried rice is what we get. Workers here are friendly and always willing to get you what you need. This place is a two thumbs up and I will continue to go here. Price is right. read more

Rating: 2-2.5 I'm not sure if this place is a hit or a miss, depending on your luck when you're visiting - but my first visit was disappointing due to the customer service. We recently moved to the Whittier area and have been looking for all the great places to eat nearby. Being from west/central LA, we were used to visiting the many different Pho places and just love pho. While glad to hear that Pho Whittier was nearby our home, we were surprised at the cold manner that we were greeted. It definitely didn't feel welcoming. No one talked to us, and when we said "Hi, three people please", they just took us to a table and sat us at a table that still had trash left over. When we asked if the table is clean and if not, if it could be wiped down. The waiter just looked at us and then walked away. I wasn't sure why he looked at us like that and if he wanted us to leave. As we were discussing this, the waiter came back with a washcloth and then wiped the table. As we were going to ask for drinks, he walked away again. It was very surprising. Finally, we flagged him down and asked for our orders to be taken. He repeated our orders and left. The food arrived reasonably soon, and wasn't bad but wasn't amazing. And this is not based on the customer service (as that wouldn't be fair). The pho has it's distinct flavor and the regular and large size options are fair. (The regular size portions are plenty for most!) We also order the pork spring rolls, and the sauce seemed bland (to one of our party guess), light (to the other guest), and just okay to me. Not great as I would not be going out of my way to ask for it, but just a dip once or twice. Overall, the food was decent but the customer service was so offsetting that we didn't know if we were to intentionally feel not welcomed. But as a fair reviewer, I'm hoping that they were just having a bad day and will attempt again - because I just love my pho. Hopefully, I can update this review for higher. read more

Yooooo super hot fire broskis , this right here ? Mannn.... I was in the area seeing clients and I needed some pho for lunch and this spot.. wow dude .. honestly wow dude.. it was so good , I had to get a sandwich after my meal, I was planning to take a bite and take it togo but at a blink of an eye .. I was already done !! The place is super clean , they got non stop take out orders. I can see why. This is my new favorite pho spot in the area no doubt girl scout. read more

Living in Whittier temporarily and found this gem! Husband had the house pho and I had the lemongrass chicken on rice. It was a delicious All was fresh and the service was great! Perfect start to our Sunday, definitely going back again...and again! Sorry no pics we were to hungry. read more

Favorite place for Pho! Favorites are the #1 House Special, Fish Pho or Shrimp Pho. Although these soups are delicious on their own you must mix as follows for the absolute Best Pho flavor: - Choose Pho of choice Add the following: - shredded basil - lime juice - Garlic Chili (oil based is my preference) - Toasted Garlic in oil Mix well and enjoy! Other favorite menu items include: - Beef Salad with Cashews - Beef Spring Rolls (mix sauce with chili) - Beef fried rice Their customer service is one of the best I've received. We eat here so often that they memorized our order. A must try, especially during winter. ;) read more

I love this place! I'm a regular here. Food is fresh and taste amazing! Workers are sweet and polite. I'm always the annoying customer that likes everything on the side & they always have every ingredient separated for TO-GO orders without asking. Highly recommend this place for customer service, food, price and convenience. Try Pho #1, #7 and #11 also with chili oil on it. It's soooooo much better taste in my opinion than srichacha. Coconut boba so delicious too in the hot weather. read more

I was pretty excited to learn that the Cuban place a 5 min walk from my house was now a pho restaurant. The weather was pretty ugly today and it was perfect weather for pho. I am so glad this place opened so close to my house. Today was my first time here and of course had to try the pho. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the Pho was. I ordered a small #1. The broth was very good. Decent amount of meat in the bowl. the small was the right size for me and pricing was in line with what other pho places charge. This place is just as good as any place in Westminster or Garbage Grove. I am happy that they opened this place in Whittier. quality food is missing in Whittier and I am always happy when a new place opens that serves good food. This is going to be my new go to spot for Pho or any Vietnamese dish when I get in the mood. No more driving to Cerritos. Next time I come here I am ordering the vermicelli. I hope the people of Whittier come here and discover what great Vietnamese food is and support this restaurant. I would hate to lose this as my go to pho place. upgraded from 4 stars to 5 stars due to the fact that it is one of the better places to eat at in Whittier. read more

im going to say Yay, for the first dish i had here.. I tried there #1 Pho all meat soup... Small for 6.95.. not bad, being it was a pretty big bowl. Abundant meat and noodles and broth was actually pretty good. The place is small. Bathrooms are out in the back of the building which was kinda weird, but its a small place. Decor was nice. I went with some friends from work during lunch time, and we were the only people there. Soon another couple came in, and an asian police officer. So it must be good. Either that, or this is the closest Vietnamese food place on this side of whittier. All in all, i would definitely go back and try some more of there items. read more

The Pho Soup is ok. I always order the Veggie Tofu Pho and twice my vegetables have been over cooked (which I dislike). As a side, I as well order the Tofu Spring Roll and they are pretty tasty but the peanut sauce doesn't really taste like peanuts; rather taste like coffee. Overall it's ok, I wouldn't really recommend it. I only eat here since my favorite Pho Restaurant is pretty far from my home. read more

Phở Whittier - Veggie Tofu Pho with Tofu Spring Rolls. - Vietnamese Near Me - Whittier, California

Not sure why this place gets so many good reviews. Decided to try this place instead of my usual place in la mirada (PHO 45). LET ME TELL YOU WORST MISTAKE. I hate being this harsh but i really didn't enjoy the food at all. I had the spring rolls with shrimp, vermicelli, and beef broth. Maybe a bad night but regardless not ok. read more

My review may be impartial to the fact that I absolutely loved the Cuban place that was here before. So sad to see it go. The rave reviews i'm reading are based solely on its location. Not a lot of pho spots in the area. The spring rolls were a good 95% iceberg lettuce. Definitely not the best. Weren't terrible, but I wouldn't order them again. *minus 1 star The pho was completely average. Nothing bad, nothing wow, nothing memorable. Also didn't have the chili/fried garlic paste. *minus 2 stars I didn't hate it, but I most likely wouldn't come back. read more
