    pho
    Jin H.

    I was really craving Vox but the line was too long that day, so I found this spot! The prices here are really great, but I will say the flavors aren't fully there. Nevertheless a great spot for a quick bite and the service was amazing too!

    Tried the Lomo Saltado and the Pho Dac Biet (Combination pho). The pho was pretty decent! Good clean tasting broth and the meats were tender, came with steak, brisket, tendon, meatball, and tripe. Not the best pho I've had, but really enjoyable nonetheless! The Lomo Saltado was the star of the show! This was as good if not better than VOX and the price is less (Sorry to pick on VOX but everyone has been there and they are known for their Lomo Saltado). Been to VOX many times and love their food. The fries were flavorful and had a nice crisp, even with the sauce on it, came with really good garlic noodles, and the beef was so juicy and tender. But the star of the show was the Aji green sauce! What I really like about it is that it has a nice spicy kick to it! May want to ask for extra! Overall, enjoyed the food, Lomo Saltado was delicious!

    My cousins and I happened to pass this place when driving and the photos of the food looked great! It was empty inside, but there were so many reviews on yelp and thought we had to try it out. I really enjoyed the lomo saltado plate with the filet mignon and fries. It was very flavorful and I loved the garlic noodles!! The portions were pretty big. As for the fried rice, I thought it was alright. I am glad I tried this place and highly recommend getting the lomo saltado plate!

    I ordered the Lomo Saltado last night for a quick dinner. I was the last customer to pick it up and it was fresh and very good portion sized and delicious. Very good service very clean. I will be back again. I got the garlic noodle Lo Salado shaken fries and steak if you're not super hungry, you can share it with two people.

    This is one of my sister's favorite places and I can see why! The Lomo Saltado Shaken Fries were delicious. Nice and hot, with crispy fries. I got it with garlic noodles which had really good flavor as well. I finished the whole thing despite the generous portions! Service was very accommodating and checked in with us often. I would definitely come back again for this dish! Parking is nice and easy in the lot in the back.

    I went there for a late lunch takeout. Lots of parking. The restaurant is a bit rundown and the decor is clean but a bit worn. The inside is cavernous. There removed the counter to give it an open appearance. The service is good and very helpful. I ordered the garlic noodles and grilled shrimp. Very well seasoned, fresh and well prepared. The prices were very reasonable. A couple next to me was having the Lomo Salgado and the Bone in Short Rib Pho that looked delicious. I think it would be worth it to come back to try it. Overall, I would rate the experience as good.

    Garlic Noodle with Grilled Pork, Lomo Saltado Shaken Fries
    Molly L.

    For the food they served we were surprised that they didn't have that many customers. The food was amazing - flavorful, aromatic, and decently-portioned. The highlight was definitely the garlic noodles, but their pad thai was pretty good also. My table ordered the rib-eye steaks which were one level rarer than they wanted. We were sat in a darker area for a large table so we hope the lights will be on next time to increase the ambiance. Service was wonderful and accommodating.

    4.5 = food 4.5 = service 3 = ambience I've been here twice within the past month. First time I got their Lomo Saltado Shaken Fries which is one thing they're known for. My girlfriend told me that it was good and the French fries really makes the dish even though it doesn't sound like it does. Very flavorful. Service just OK for not being busy. The second time I came with my hubby. This time I ordered their Bone-in Short Rib Pho Soup. Soup was pretty good. The dish was very filing and I had to bring the rest home. They give you 2 meaty ribs. This used to be an old coffee shop but they didn't renovate it too much except for removing the counter. Looks old. Plenty of parking. First time I drove past the restaurant because it's a dark corner.

    I have to be honest, I ordered the Vegetarian Pho only for the veggies, I hate Tofu, BUT this fried Tofu was Very good. The blend of the spices in all three dishes is amazing. The chicken was so flavorful and let's talk about the Lomo Saltado Shaken fries with Filet Mignon, Just go for it! Stop here and I think you'll be back again like us!

The finger foods was Asian‑inspired, with flavors like black sesame, curry, and other creative twists that made each bite feel unique. Every piece was thoughtfully made, rich, and decadent without feeling repetitive, and the presentation was beautiful across the board. It definitely felt like a more elevated, modern take on afternoon tea. The tea itself, however, fell a bit short for me. I ordered a non‑caffeinated chrysanthemum tea, which unfortunately didn't have much depth or flavor. My friend's Darjeeling was better, but still not as rich or complex as I've had elsewhere. Given how strong the Asian inspiration is in the food, it would've been nice to see more thoughtful decaf tea options in that same direction, like decaf sencha, barley tea, or kuromamecha, to better match the concept. Price: The afternoon tea service is prix fixe at around $45 per person, which includes a curated set of savory bites, desserts, and a pot of tea. For the quality and creativity of the food, the price feels pretty reasonable compared to other OC tea services, though the tea itself didn't quite meet the same level as the food. Ambiance: The space is bright, warm, and inviting, with a nice amount of natural sunlight coming in that makes it feel cozy rather than stuffy. There are subtle Asian design elements woven into the décor, giving it a modern, slightly upscale feel without being overly formal. It's a great spot to catch up with friends and linger over tea. Service: Service was good, friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. Even during a busy service, staff remained kind and approachable, which added to the overall relaxed vibe. Parking: Parking can take a bit of effort. Since it's located on a busy street in Orange, you may need to circle around the roundabout or park a little farther away and walk over. Not impossible, but definitely something to plan for, especially on weekends.

    This is a really cute place!…read more Service is wonderful and friendly. Food is flavorful and good proportion. Pricing is comparable for Old Town Orange. The place is clean and has nice decor. Nice ambiance!

I stopped by for an early dinner on my way back to San Diego last weekend. My friend and I each got the bulgogi garlic noodles (I added the egg but for $2.50 not sure it added a lot of flavor or value to the dish), shared the wings and an order fries. I also ordered a Vietnamese coffee on the cashier's recommendation--good suggestion, nice flavor without an overpowering amount of sugar. The wings were fantastic. Fries were fair, good portions and flavorful. I liked the noodles but weren't blown away. Everything was very soft, not a lot of textural change. The portion was generous with lots of bulgogi beef. The service was great--friendly and responsive. They have a small lot which was fine at 530pm on Sunday but probably problematic at lunch or normal dinner hours. My one complain was dirty dining room. Maybe it was just after the lunch rush, but the tables and floor could have used some wiping and the trash cans were full. Nice easy meal stop off the freeway at Orange.

    Food is the main reason I came here desperate to find a good pho place in the area. I've tried so…read moremany pho restaurants and was always left empty. Finally pho done right! I got the beef and brisket pho. They only have one size but it came with a good amount of beef. I usually eat alot and order extra noodles to be satisfied. The great part about the noodles is it came with a generous amount of broth with it, they didn't skimp like most places do. The reason I like their pho is 3 fold. 1. Broth is actually great. 2. Meat is flavorful which is rare when it comes to steak (pun intended); usually they just mask the flavor of meat with good pho broth but not here. And lastly the noodles are not chewy and separate well when eating, I can't really explain this well but I love noodles like this and not when they are harder to chew or taste too much of starch/flour. Here they do all 3 right which I'm very well pleased. I rarely leave reviews but the service was also good and vibe is great for family or kids because of the larger space between tables so I had to make this review.

I thought they were good but he had a few critiques about them. I got a bowl of pho and he got the garlic noodles and lomo. The pho, like I have said before is as good as can be expected. The lomo was very overseasoned. The thing is, I like my food on the saltier and more seasoned side and the lomo was still a little extra for me. The service was good. Everyone, although some were non-English speaking, was very nice. The decor was interesting. The seats all have a photograph of a resort on them. Would I come back? I dunno. I might. But not anytime soon. The extra star was for the servers. They were fun.

There were only 3 tables that had customers. After that taking the menus, we were again not attended to for 20-30minutes, noone brought us water or ever asked if we were ready.

We proceeded to order 9 dishes that took awhile to come out. Only 1 dish came out which was the walnut shrimp and then more came out 15minutes later. How do they expect our big party to start eating with just 1 dish. We also had to wait literally 30minutes with nothing to eat for 3 dishes at the end when we finished everything else already. We had to ask about it 3 times. They need better timing in everything.... I noticed a couple tables having the same problems. As for the food, it was alright. The honey walnut shrimp and fried salted pepper shrimp was not crispy. The peking duck was actually great, one of the best. But it is not worth their service & other foods.. There are tons of chinese food options out there, we will not be coming back here. 2il
