This brisket sandwich was so surprisingly delicious, I was speechless! They note on the menu it is…read moretheir famous sandwich and I DEFINITELY understand why. The brisket is so tender and very ample, but it's not fatty, it's very lean. The pickled veggies add that nice crunch and balances out the flavors of the meat and light mayo. The cilantro and greens are classic Viet additions and greatly appreciated! Add some pickled jalapenos and that bite is just HEAVENLY! 10/10 (note: the beef consume was just ok haha it was nice to have on the side but I didn't like the dip like I normally do with things like birria tacos) THE FRIES! I love these fries! I asked for light seasoning and it was PERFECT. The crisp was perfection (lightly battered) and the inside was still nice and soft. I love me a good side of fries, this was a pleasant surprise! Now the Santa Ana pho was good, but I don't think I'd order it again. The flavors weren't unique enough for me to justify the hefty price tag. They were generous with the meat, but for nearly $30 after tax/tip, that's a bit too much for me. If you're a light eater, this could feed 2 people!! I would order a different pho next time though as the broth was pretty clean (didn't taste too salty) and they do offer extra noodles for free! Overall, I definitely plan to come back! Come check out this place and MAKE SURE to get the brisket sandwich!! Parking was great and it's inside the Glendora Public Market so there are plenty of options for your fam and friends. Seating was ample, space was modern, it was a great Sunday hang. Note: as with most food halls, it's self service for most things. Bus your own tray and I recommend bringing your own water or grab a drink at one of these places!

That request almost never…read morecomes out of her mouth, so we had to honor it before she changed her mind. & Broth is tucked inside the Glendora Public Market, easy to find once you're there. I ordered the Tai Lan, which is a fun cross between phở and a noodle salad. Sliced tender ribeye sits over garlic oil phở noodles on a bed of greens and fresh herbs, tossed with a shallot tamarind sauce, topped with crispy garlic, and served with a side of their 24-hour bone broth to sip or pour over. The ribeye was genuinely tender, the tamarind sauce had a nice tangy-sweet kick, and the crispy garlic tied it all together. Added some sriracha for a little more flavor and to give it a kick. Best phở I've ever had? No. But it's a clever modern take and I left very full and very happy, which is exactly what I needed. And if phở isn't your thing, the menu sprawls into wagyu phở, garlic noodles with filet, lomo saltado, sandwiches (which look amazing) and even Vietnamese coffee with sea salt foam. Plenty to explore. This is now the first spot I'd send anyone to in the Glendora Public Market, and a real step up from the ramen place that used to be in the same space. Already plotting my return.

The price here is amazingly low. I have never seen prices so low! The only thing is that if they are busy which it seems like they will always be busy, it might take about 30 minutes to get your order. Well worth the wait! I ordered a large party of 7 and since the phone was ringing off the hook I just went there to place the order. There was already a line almost out the door and the seating inside was packed!! For myself, I got the salmon teriyaki bento box and it comes with a bunch of cool stuff inside. The plating itself is so organized and cute. Overall I would come back here all the time!! Just note they do take a little bit of time but right next door is a supermarket so you can browse there while you wait.

LOL FOOD / DRINK / DESSERT: Menu had a variety of rice, noodle, and salad options with different proteins such as chicken, steak, shrimp, and salmon. I didn't want to get the same old rice and noodle dish. Something did catch my eyes... it was the Wild Caught Alaskan Salmon Grilled Teriyaki. That's what I got. The lady staff asked me what kind of rice I wanted. When I heard egg fried rice, my eyes lifted and said yes. Well, I didn't know egg fried rice was an upgrade for $2.49 more until I saw my receipt. I know it was indicated in small print on the menu which I obviously did not notice LOL. It would have been nice if I was informed it is an upgrade and if I was okay to pay extra for it. I better ask next time. Lesson learned for me. Anyway, salmon could have been a thicker piece. Flavor was okay. Egg fried rice was okay, too. It didn't have much wok flavor to it. I didn't see too much egg. I will not upgrade next time. Veggies were the highlight of the dish. Overall, entree was just okay. Honestly, I don't think it was worth the $17+ that I paid for it. I didn't get a drink or ask for water. As for dessert, I got the complimentary fortune cookie that came with my entree. I actually don't care for their fortune cookie. It doesn't taste right to me. STAFF / SERVICE: I got a slightly warm welcome from the lady behind the counter. I got a warmer welcome from a different lady who took my order. They weren't super busy if at all. My order was to-go. Just had to wait a little bit. INTERIOR / AMBIANCE: Bright and clean interior. Good comfortable inside seating. No outside seating. One men's restroom and one women's restroom available for use. They have the code key pad, but they don't appear to work. EXTERIOR / PARKING: Clean exterior. Free parking is plenty as it's located at the Glendora Marketplace Shopping Center in the City of Glendora. Btw, they don't have a drive-thru. The drive-thru that you see to the right of them belongs to Chick-fil-A. RECOMMEND THIS PLACE? I find their Asian flavors are just mediocre. Honestly, I can't say they are the most authentic Asian foods. Please try them for yourself and make your own call. Thank you!

Ended up getting a cheeseburger, onion rings, chili, cheese, fries, and a kids teriyaki bowl. Let's start with the good. The chili cheese fries are phenomenal. Their chili has a perfect level of spice, a super meaty with no beans. It's melting and gooey and warm and the portion size is good. I would happily come back just for this. The onion rings on the other hand we're disappointing. They were large and they actually look like they're homemade, but they were so limp and as you can tell from the color, not cooked enough at all. I like my onion rings to be crunchy and these were nothing of the sort. Play definitely have potential there if they cooked them longer. The cheeseburger was fine. As you would expect from a roadside stand. Nothing special, but nothing offensive. It's a little hard to judge the teriyaki bowl because it actually didn't come with this famous homemade sauce. It was just plain chicken on top of rice. I thought the chicken was kinda flavorful, but it was a little thin, so kind of dry. And the portion size was not great even for a kid. Definitely needed more meat and less rice. I did get two other sauces. One was kind of like a sweet-and-sour and the other one was... I'm not actually sure because I was too afraid to taste it. Maybe like a chili sauce? It was thick like salsa. But nowhere in my bag was there the teriyaki to be found. I feel like if your name is best teriyaki you should make sure you put it with your rice bowl. Would definitely come back again for chili cheese fries. I don't know if I would eat anything else. Cost us around $30 for this.

I immediately let him know there had been a mistake and apologized while returning the extra drink. In response, William said, "Oh well, you gave me back the drink because you obviously don't want a free drink." I found that comment to be sarcastic and unprofessional. I was simply trying to be honest and return an item that I did not pay for, which I believed your staff would appreciate. In addition to that interaction, the quality of the food was very disappointing. The meals were cold, the egg rolls were stale, and the rice was watery with cold beef. Overall, both the customer service and the food quality fell far below expectations. I am quite disappointed in this experience and hope this feedback is taken seriously so improvements can be made moving forward. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
