    Good oxtail pho my favorite with a banana boba on the side. The chili oil is always on point. Service is quick and fast. Good energy all around many kinds of people come and go

    Service a great and fast when it comes to ordering pho. Plenty of seats and gets busy at lunch time, but not overly crowded. Portions are very big and very filling. Pho broth has good flavor but luke warm, and tons of meats from steak, meatballs, tendons and green onions. 4/5 Enjoyed the Thai iced tea but wasn't as sweet. 3/5 Mung Bean for Dessert is my favorite part after our meal, compliments from the restaurant. Love the taste of this mung bean dessert. 5/5

    My go to work stop for pho, vermicelli, and lemongrass chicken. It's one of those consistent places where you always get the same quality and portions. Their pho is BIG! Bigger than most places I think. The lemongrass chicken (sub white rice for red rice) is always good, and vermicelli is always a good option if you want something just heavy enough but slightly refreshing. Nothing extravagant but always what you expect. Their tap water is also not great so hydrate well beforehand. It gets busy during rush hour lunch so just plan accordingly.

    We've long visited the same Vietnamese restaurant in Tustin, even after multiple change of owners, a drop in quality, and steadily rising prices. Sadly, my kids are stubborn and resistant to try a new place! That's why I lied and drove them to Simply Pho. Yes, the howled and moaned the whole ride. Onto the actual review... The interior is very modern and slick and the staff were friendly and helpful. The shrimp spring rolls were fantastic (especially the peanut sauce!). I had bun with pork/shrimp/eggroll. I'm not a huge fan of shell-on shrimp, but I lived. Everything was very tasty and high quality and I thought the value was much better than our usual haunt. My kids enjoyed their beef pho and chicken with rice. We loved it enough that I hope to come back soon!

    The food here is good. The prices are okay, average for the Y2KXXV (2025-present day) era where so many of us have to acknowledge the quarter century gone by since the year 2000 with inflation and cost of living adjustments. The one thing I think could be improved to their Vietnamese cuisine peer restaurants is slightly larger portions, simply "more noodles" a low overhead cost would probably make this place busier and with insignificant profit loss but overall higher revenue gain. The Garlic Noodles are perfect, not overwhelming nor overpowering. Easy parking.

    Beautiful decor amazing food

    Simply pho not leading us down with world cup broadcast. Amazing food like always. Gooooooal!

    We ordered the Grilled Pork Spring Rolls to start. Amazing!!! For dinner, I ordered Grilled Chicken over vermicelli and my boyfriend ordered Pho Fish Fillet. Mine was so good, fresh and flavorful. My boyfriend really enjoyed his. He said it hit the spot! The servers were nice but didn't come around very often to check in. It was so good, I forgot to take a picture. This was the aftermath.

    Friendly staff, pho comes out pretty fast and they give soo much, I'm either too stuffed to finished or take the rest Togo, so I can enjoy the special treat after my meal!

    I like this pho place. Pho oxtail and pho rib bone are soooo good. I also like the Thai tea.

    Amazing service, food delicious. Ambiance was clean and friendly. I enjoyed it for my lunch break

    Seafood pho, shrimp spring rolls, beef vermicelli bowl and fried tofu.

    I really enjoy eating here. Their broth is very clear and delicious. I order their seafood pho and shrimp spring rolls. Their seafood is always fresh and clean. Their noodles are cooked to perfection and their spring rolls are always made with the freshest ingredients. Their prices are average compared to other pho restaurants and their portions are just right. Their customer service is great and their food always hits the spot. I will always return when I'm in the area.

    I had the bit thit nuong -- vermicelli noodles with grilled pork and eggroll, with the usual fixings -- peanuts, carrots, cucumber, lettuce, etc. The portion was a decent size and colorful. The nuoc cham (fish sauce) was fine as were the thin noodles. The meat was a little dry and could have been more flavorful. The eggroll was not that crunchy. I would say overall that the food was okay but I have had better. No one came to fill my water. And you have to pay at the counter. Lots of parking as part of a large shopping center.

    Chicken pho and Thai tea
    Crystal H.

    Love coming here! Everyone is so welcoming. If it's your first time trying pho definitely come here. Food is amazing and drinks. My favorite items to get here are the chicken pho and a Thai tea:)

We got: Taiwanese soup noodle (5/5): new on the wall and wanted to try. Lots of good beef pieces in the soup, and not too heavy on the spice. Came with a vinegar dipping sauce Dry noodle combinations (5/5): we basically tried all of them. Perfect Al dente egg noodles with a clean broth on the side. Mine came with intestine, others had a fried chicken or dumplings which was really good and meaty. I like how all combos came with a sauce to accompany it Oxtail noodle soup (5/5): slightly spicy, very satisfying. Tender oxtail Overall so good and will be coming back!

The chicken wings were phenomenal. We got all flats, which I'm not sure if they normally serve it like that. They were crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside and just enough seasoning. The broth was super tasty. The oxtail cooked well. The noodles were in my opinion too soft. That's fine, my granddaughter likes him a little soft. The service was service, not bad or good. It was a small place, felt a little chaotic. Would I go back, if I was in the area probably.

    I was introduced here by a couple of friends, and Seven Grams did NOT miss! We were a big group,…read morewhich means we got to try multiple different things out. We waited one hour on my visit, but that is to be expected as the restaurant is quite small. Beef Rolls (5/5): We got two orders of these, and it was our favorite for a reason. Crispy and flaky wrap on the outside and it was packed with flavor. It was very satisfying to eat! Scallion Pancakes (3.5/5): They were plain but that is to be expected, I didn't taste much scallion. It needed the sauce of course! Spicy Wontons (4/5): These are solid and the chili oil does pack a lot of heat. I would say they are on the spicier side, just wish there was a little more depth to it. Seven Grams XLB (4/5): Juicy and flavorful! Not the absolute best I've had, but still worth ordering. Golden Beef Noodle Soup (5/5): This bowl right here was amazing. Green leafy kale paired with the extra hearty soup was what made this bowl a standout dish for me. 100% would order this alone! Mapo Tofu (5/5): Yummy silky tofu cubes with the minced meat sauce were delicious in every bite! I had no other complaints, but this dish gets very filling easily. Seriously, this place is one of my favorite places in Tustin. The service one inside is efficient, and the ambience is a bit noisy and packed, but this place is popular for a reason. I'll definitely revisit this spot when I get the chance.

Seating consider is around 10 tables plus hjgh top stools, so if you are a large group the wait can be long. We stopped by yesterday to try out some new items, which were a mixed bag. First the Cheese Chicken Roll was surprisingly good. Imagine the Beef Roll and swap things around to get something off of a fancy KFC menu. It features a crispy flaky tortilla outside, wrapped around copious chicken (katsu texture), some lettuce for a crunch, some melted cheese, and then a spicy Thousand-Island type dressing. It all pairs well, has a good chicken portion, and texture variation too. My only desire would be for slightly more lettuce and slightly less cheese, otherwise perfect. Crispy Lotus Root Fries are solid, but not a replacement for typical potato fries. The lotus version was not as crispy or crunchy, but would be an Asian version. It comes with ketchup and the same spicy thousand island dressing as the chicken roll. Lastly we were let down by the Pan Fried Shrimp&Chicken Dumplings (Whole Wheat). The whole wheat wrapping had a very slight texture difference, not as chewy as the typical dumpling wrapping. But the inside was the main focus. It seemed like it was a fishball inside, a homogenous color and texture and more reminiscent of fish than of shrimp. It's possible we got the wrong dumpling. Based on this experience we would not order it again. Wheat wrapping would be fine, but the shrimp/chicken filling would be a no.

At random hours, there can be tons of movement outside the restaurant. The food here?? Oh my gosh. I absolutely love that combination plate. I always order the combination meat with grilled chicken vermicelli noodles. I think this time I went was probably the best I've received! My boyfriend and I decided to try their fried rice because we constantly order the same thing here and in all honesty? It was delicious! They added a generous amount of beef to the dish. I honestly thought it was great. Their lemonade straight up tastes like lemons were truly used (we have a lemon tree and it reminds me of my dad's lemonade.) Highly recommend the food here. The environment here is so cozy. I absolutely love coming here at night because the interior is lit up by some string lights wrapping around the restaurant. Great family friendly spot and an excellent date spot. The service? It felt awkward coming in. The 3 people at the counter just stood there staring at us I'm like so do I just go pick a seat or something haha.

She was attentive, warm, and genuinely great with my daughter. The one hiccup came when my daughter wanted to swap a meat option for steamed veggies in her pho. Daisy let us know the kitchen doesn't accommodate menu customizations, so we got creative and ordered everything on the side. It worked out, though it ended up costing about the same as a kids' pho for what amounted to a simple substitution. Outside of that, the experience was excellent, the restaurant was clean, the service was top-notch, and the menu had a solid variety to choose from. The lack of flexibility with customization is the only reason I'm not giving five stars, but I'd still recommend Mama Hong's without hesitation.
