When it comes to Vietnamese restaurants, there are plethora to choose from in Vista, California. I recently discovered Tasty Phô, which is a small, locally-owned, family-owned shop outside of downtown. They are located just off of Santa Fe Ave. in a small shopping strip. The interior is very simple, with very little decor. It is also very small and only allows for about 25 customers seating. Although there is booth seating for groups of four, this place is best for solo or date-dining. The service here is fast, friendly and very welcoming. This is because it is owned by a husband, wife and son; so there is a very personal touch when it comes to customer service. I've come here twice and so far I really love the no. 46 pork vermicelli noodles, their egg rolls, spring rolls, and their combination phô soup. It is important to note that there is pork in their eggrolls and I love how crispy they are. All of the meats in my meals were delicious! Their menu is priced very affordably with the majority of the items costing under $15. They appear to be very popular for delivery service services, such as DoorDash and Uber eats. There were also many people who did pick-up. Although I could wish for more ambience inside with some music, I can appreciate that there's ample parking in their shared lot and they have a clean bathroom. If you happen to be in Vista and want to support a small, family-owned business that serves delicious Vietnamese cuisine, I highly recommend Tasty Phô. read more

So much for trusting reviews and stars. It is a small hole in the wall restaurant and very outdated. I also should have known when there weren't any other Asians eating there...IYKYK. My hubby and I ordered the well done pho and half order of egg rolls. Broth was piping hot but bland, meat seemed too chewy, and the only ingredient that gave it life were the green onions. Egg rolls were good. Restroom was somewhat clean and because it's next to the kitchen I can see the other staff just sitting and texting. Makes me wonder if the broth was even fresh. I don't understand the reviews and maybe they've never tried authentic, tasty and fresh Pho? Or the reviews are just about their drinks? read more

Tried a small hole-in-the-wall pho spot in Vista recently. Nothing fancy, but sometimes those places surprise you. I ordered the pho and it was $12, which is pretty hard to beat these days. The broth came out nice and hot with a solid beefy flavor, and the portion was good for the price. It's not the most complex pho I've ever had, but for $12 it definitely hit the spot. If you're looking for an affordable, no-frills bowl of pho, this place does the job! read more

Why did it take us so long to try this place. We would see people coming and going, but we just never took the time to stop. Until today so glad we did. It was delicious and I'm sure we will be back soon. read more

This place is amazing! If you love pho and boba you should definitely try this place out. It's owned by a family and they are so sweet when they serve you. My favorite is the pho Tom which is the shrimp one. I always order Thai tea boba with it, it's delicious! Their vegetable egg rolls are yummy too! And the best part about it is it's affordable. Please don't ever change anything about your restaurant I love everything about it! read more

So it's 7:15 pm and they close at 8pm....45 minutes still left until closing time. Yet, I can't dine inside cause they say "it's not to go orders after 7pm" ‍ it's my fault as this is now the 3rd time they have told me this. I come here often....but I won't come here any longer. I have this little restaurant some nice praise and have previously left some good reviews with photos of their food as well as their restaurant. It's close and convenient but I'll go off of Emerald Drive to the Phó house instead. read more

Tasty Pho - Steak pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Vista, California

Me and my husband stopped by here because I was feeling under the weather & wanted some good soup to feel better. We came here because of the reviews. It's pretty much a hole-in-the-wall mom & pop pho place owned by a family. It's small and a little outdated inside. Service was good, they gave us waters right away and asked for our orders pretty quickly. I got the pho with rare steak, well done steak & added meatballs while my husband got the rare steak & well done brisket. I always try my soup first before seasoning it and sad to say it did not pass my authentic broth test. It was not as flavored and I barely tasted anything. I had to add loads of sriracha and hoisin sauce to be able to create flavor in the soup, which is not what you do. My husband agreed that the soup was not as flavorful unfortunately. We also got the BBQ Beef Banh-Mi which was pretty good in his opinion but he wished that there was more meat. read more

I had ordered a stir fry with rice. It came with noodles instead of the rice. Told the lady we ordered rice. She said no you ordered noodles. Wouldn't correct the order. Was very rude. Would not recommend this place to anyone!! read more

This place has gone downhill. Too bad. They were always my go to. I ordered the steak pho. The mint leaves had black spots so I threw them away. The sprouts were slimming and smelled bad, threw those out as well. Who needs food poisoning, right? I added my own condiments to salvage the soup. The beef, noodles and broth were great but without proper condiments, why bother? I'm looking for a new place in Vista. P.S. my fingers still smell from separating the good veggies from the expired veggies. read more

Tasty pho is well TASTY! I almost never finish my pho but this place, leaves me wanting more. Get their chili oil makes soup even better, very generous with the basil. Service was fast and owner is very kind. My whole family left happy and cant wait to come back. read more

The rib pho here is PHO-TASTIC! I loved the broth and the portion. I can't wait to come back and get more pho for the soup season. Loved the hotstone pho concept-- we don't have that in san diego so its good. The spring rolls were good as well. I also love their new menu with the drinks-- especially the coco matcha and egg coffee. The garlic noodles with beef was okay, could've been seasoned more (with salt more or more garlic) along with the banh mi chao steak couldve been marinated better so it can be more tender to cut into. Overall-- love the decor and authentic factor of this spot. Will visit again read more

I came in literally about 10 minutes before closing, and instead of making me feel rushed or unwelcome, the staff was so kind and helpful. They still took my order with a smile and put so much care into everything. The pho was absolutely delicious -- fresh, comforting, and exactly what I needed. On top of that, they even made me egg rolls, which were crispy, hot, and so good. Everything tasted fresh and made with love. The ambience is cozy and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. What really stood out was the customer service. They could have easily turned me away or rushed me out, but instead they treated me with genuine kindness. That meant more than they probably realize. I will 100% be coming back and recommending this place to everyone. Thank you for turning my night around! read more

Wow really good food and service and they didn't mine me coming in the last 15min before they closed wife supper happy thank you and people come here and eat you wont be disappointed read more

Tasty Pho - Vegie pho broth was delicious - Vietnamese Near Me - Vista, California

I'm a big fan of Pho/Vietnamese in general and love trying new spots. I saw this place while driving around in Vista. I looked it up & saw it is very high rated so I decided to go for it! The place didn't disappoint but it also didn't knock my socks off. I tried the rare steak pho & the pork spring rolls- the rolls were really good & the pho somewhat average. Both items came out within 3 minutes, so 5 star on speed!! The ambiance is not there, it's pretty much a hole in the wall. The price is about 11.99 per bowl of Pho which again is average I'd say. Ultimately, I always like to see new Pho places because I love them. With that said I'll be trying new places to continue to add places I love because this one is good but I'm not in love with it. Happy eating read more

The place had a smell that we didn't know what it was. The food was ok. The service was terrible. We came in at 7 and were greeted by a man saying we close at 8. I was unsure if that meant for us to leave. read more

After reading a lot of great reviews, last night was my first time ever ordering anything from Tasty Pho. I ordered the rare steak, well done flank/brisket, tendon & tripe pho, & an order or shrimp spring rolls. The spring rolls were great, but the pho broth was not as flavorful as I wanted it to be. It was a bit bland, unfortunately. One thing I will say is their prices are super affordable! read more

Ordered a plate of chicken, rice and steamed broccoli. The chicken was too dry. The rice was almost brick like. Not worth $15. Would not return. read more

This is THE best pho spot in Vista by far. We frequent this location when we want delicious Vietnamese take-out. They have a small dining area and offer great service, but take-out is convenient for large parties. The appetizers are great. My favorites are the Vietnamese Egg Rolls and any variation of the BBO or BBQ spring rolls. The shrimp is always so fresh! The Binh Mi sandwiches are good for a small meal and/or with appetizers. As for the, pho, there are too many choices to list, but they do allow you to make replacements/modifications and add extra. Extra meat or vegetable, for example. Finally, the vermicelli and rice plates are just as good, if you aren't interested in hot pho. The plates are generous and filling. If you are waiting for a take-out/to-go order, try a milk tea (with or w/o boba) or a Thai tea. Like I said, the best spot for the best, authentic Vietnamese food in town. read more

Always love an authentic meal! They never disappoint !! I always get egg rolls and the house special pho or bbq chicken combo plate.

Best pho in North county! The staff is always super friendly and attentive. Love coming here!

We went to lunch on Saturday at Tasty Pho and I'm so glad we did! The restaurant is immaculately clean, and the people serving us were super nice, as well. We were the only guests, which makes me nervous for them, because it was definitely lunch time, but they said it's usually busier on weekdays. However, you all should definitely try it on the weekends too! The food was fresh, very tasty, decent sized portions, and obviously made with love and care. I had Pho Taí and my friend had bbq pork bún. The owner was sitting down to his own lunch and he generously shared some of his Bahn Mí sandwich and that was so good I ordered one to go to eat later. My only sort of negative critique is that they serve the dishes in to go containers, with plastic utensils (a side effect of pandemic times, I think) and it was hard to eat Pho with a plastic fork. We will be returning again and again, and I hope you will all give them a try, too! read more

Amazing food! Love the pho and all food here! Service is great! Love supporting local family businesses.

Fabulous, fresh food. Generous portions. Very reasonable prices. Nicest people with great service. We had the tofu spring rolls with peanut sauce. THE BEST peanut sauce. I don't know what the slight sweetness came from - it was unusual and I loved it! We also had the shrimp pho, the chicken Com and the chicken and vegetables with rice noodles. All extremely tasty - with super fresh ingredients and a lot of food for the price. I typically choose Mexican food when it's my turn, but I would HIGHLY recommend Tasty Pho and choose this next time. read more

Tasty Pho - Tofu Spring Rolls with fantastic, homemade peanut sauce. (Best peanut sauce I've ever had). - Vietnamese Near Me - Vista, California

Mom and pop spot. Broth was so clean and delicious. Owner was super sweet. Definitely will come back.

Quite cramped. Good place for takeout more than for dining in. We got the pho, egg rolls and grilled pork with rice. The pho was a little underwhelming with little noodles and meat, but at least the broth was delicious. The egg rolls were good but nothing special. Their grilled pork was delicious and rice was cooked well. Overall pretty good if you are in the area, but we probably won't go out of our way to eat here. read more

This is a really good pho place! Probably the best in all of vista. I ordered a beef vermicelli bowl, grilled pork spring rolls, egg rolls, and a side of chicken pho broth. Everything was very flavorful. The spring rolls were stuffed with meat and fresh veggies, egg rolls were so delicious and crispy, the vermicelli bowl was very fresh, the meat was grilled to perfection & the chicken broth was so comforting and delicious. It's a small, intimate, quiet, and relaxing place for a sit down meal. They also do a good job keeping the same quality for their to-go orders as well. (If you know, that is a big bonus for to-go pho) The owner is extremely kind, friendly, & attentive. I will definitely be coming back to this place! read more

On October 7th 2021, Tasty Pho will be changing ownership. I moved to Vista almost 5 years ago and tried this place out due to great Yelp reviews and the fact that it was near me. I continued going to Tasty Pho because the food was fantastic, prices were fair, and most importantly, because the family owned restaurant had the sweetest family in Vista running it. Thank you for all the delicious food and thank you for the great hospitality. Wishing the best to this wonderful family on their future endeavors. read more

Excellent takeout packaging, peanuts are separated from the rest to maintain the crunch. Very friendly owner as well - I got a chance to chat with him while waiting for my food. 10/10 recommend! read more

I feel very unfortunate to have to downgrade my rating for this place but... prices went up ($1 for Phos). They are now almost aligned with the Pho places around Vista/San Marcos...the issue is: the menu, the dishes, quantity, quality etc... didn't change. In my original review I mentioned that according to the prices ($6.49/beef pho) it was a steal for a quick bite but now that it's almost comparable to other Pho places, I don't necessarily feel it's "worth it " anymore. I'll keep on going there see if their portion/quality improves along with the price increase and will update my review then. read more
