    Accidentally ended up in this strip mall and decided to get a bowl of Pho in this place. I was impressed by friendliness and professionalism of the staff. I absolutely LOVED how the pho was packaged to go. It was a multi-tiered soup bowl with separate compartment for noodles and meats. But.... The mot important thing in Pho is broth and this one just wasn't rich enough for my taste. But the soup was still good and if I didn't have other options I'd eat here again.

    #5 - Chicken Breast Pho , Lychee Slushies & Thai Tea

    This is the best Pho ever . I'm pregnant and this has been my pregnancy craving ever since I've tried it. Everything taste fresh and flavorful. The customer service is amazing, feels like family. They have happy hour where you dine in and get a free Thai tea which is 10/10. Everything about this place is a 10/10. My favorite thing to get is the chicken Pho and a lychee slushie. I've been here multiple times and have never been disturbed. The place is small and welcoming, quite with nice soothing music.

    This is one of those Viet spots that have a smaller focused menu that highlights classics like pho and stirfry dishes but we keep coming back to this neighborhood restaurant because they always kept to its amazing taste. I love the plants in the inside! It really changes the ambience to your aunties home with a bunch of plants. Made the same order as I did when I was in high school as a college student and I still feel it's the same. How comforting! Please stay in this plaza forever!! The world must know what a home cooked meal is like!

    Came here for lunch today for pho. Parking here was easy as they had a lot. I got the special combination pho and it wasn't good. The bean sprouts were not fresh and smelled like it was fermenting. The noodles were overcooked and mushy. The broth also tasted bland. I think their Cambodian dishes might be better though.

    Apparently the number on yelp is the wrong one. They took my order and everything but it wasn't the correct place

    The foods always fresh and it's great service. There was a time when I was coming here 2x a week

    I've always passed by this place, I think what attracted my attention was the name. Reviews seem pretty solid. AMBIANCE: Parking: Plaza parking, room for about 20 cars. I didn't have any issues. Seating: Inside seating. Great for groups, room for about 20 people. Feels: It's off of Pacific Coast Highway. Closest landmark was probably Long Beach City College. Other than that it's not the touristy side but moreover just your grit and grind area. The spot itself is pretty nice. Nothing too flashy. I dig the classic Cambodian (I think) music. The chandeliers are pretty nice and the huge pond of fish painting is quite majestic. Great for families or comfort eating. FOOD: Beef Stew (Recommend) Delicious. A fulfilling dish that's well seasoned. I'm generally used to thicker broth but this was pretty good and comforting. I appreciated the chunks of carrots and the mixing hints of onions and lemongrass. Noodles were well cooked and the beef was tender. Add the wonderful elements of mint, lime, and peppers for a superb kick. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Great! The order was relatively quick and follow-up was great. TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. This place is great! Simple comforting spot with great selections, delicious food, and reasonable spots. There are plenty of Cambodian/Vietnamese places here in Long Beach but this is another promising spot. They don't have Chinese donuts but can't blame them if they don't have it (just an FYI heads up). Aside from that this place is great! TIPS: * They got boba too!

    Pork Egg Rolls

    Good place for Pho and stir-fried dishes in Long Beach. We haven't been back in a while, and I really wanted a warm bowl of Pho mid-morning, so stopped in for dine-in after an appointment. LIke other noodle shops, they open early (9am) and serve the entire menu. I've really come to appreciate being able to have noodle soup for breakfast, usually in a less crowded atmosphere. We were seated promptly, with glasses of water being brought. The menu has boba tea, smoothies, and slushies along with rice porridge, various stir-fry dishes, and of course, pho. - pork egg rolls ($6.49). Very good. Five spring roll pieces, with dipping sauce...served immediately after it came from a deep fryer. Loved it. - Stir fried broccoli with chicken ($10.99) - served with white rice, the brown sauce was exactly how we liked it, and would appeal to ones who like brown sauce (no corn starch) from a typical Chinese restaurant (i.e. no fish sauce added). It's a good value, and the ingredients were good. - Combination Pho ($12.49 for L): I like the pho here (had it many times). The broth is very clean, not oily, but also lacks a strong beef flavor. One should wait a bit to let the rice noodles soak in the broth (since it can be a bit hard in the beginning). The combo comes with a lot of different meats, but I could only identify rare steak, tendon (one large piece), tripe (very small pieces), and a lot of quartered meatballs (which I love)...no brisket or flank.. It came with a side of fresh, uncooked bean sprouts, one snip of Thai Basil, and sliced jalapeno. It did take a bit of time to get the pho bowl out, so most likely there is not a simmering pot of beef broth ready to go, like there would be in a high traffic pho restaurant. Like most Asian restaurants, the food came as it was finished cooking individually, so we ended up getting the broccoli chicken first, then waited a bit for the pho, then waited some more for the appetizer. The service was good, keeping our water filled and delivering our food hot. You pay upfront, and they have a digital system where you can go touchless. It's nice that to have a restaurant this close, where they serve good pho but also Chinese dishes for those in your party who don't care for the lemongrass/fish sauce/peanut flavor that is prevalent in Southeast Asian cooking.

    You're probably wondering why I took a picture of an empty plate ... It was that good I forgot to take a picture , presentation was amazing . Small hole in the wall but this place is a GEM . #16 & 14 bomb.

    It's been months since I've visited this place, but if I'm ever in the area again, I'll come back. Came here during the end of the shut down...well like late 2020. There weren't any curfews but we couldn't eat indoors. Anyway, I ordered com bo luc lac because that's my favorite and it was yummy. The meat was flavorful and tender. I also ordered pho but I didn't taste it so I can't speak to it. I do know it was finished so it couldn't have been horrible. The customer service was friendly as well.

    Cambodian beef stew
    Dani L.

    Just delicious food in an inconspicuous location. It's a mom and pop shop. It doesn't look like much from the outside but the food inside is *AMAZING*. We were in the area and wanted to grab some yummies with the kids nearby. With the mind blowing wind outside, we wanted to get some warm soup. Pho it is. First of all, the service is great. The young man taking care of us was friendly without being too overbearing. He checked in on us a couple times. He was timely getting us everything we asked for (which we did a lot cuz of our 2 small children). He was patient as well. It wasn't super busy, thankfully in our case cuz I get easily embarrassed by my somewhat loud kids. On to the food. We ordered egg rolls, a large combo pho, a large beef & meatballs pho for the kids to share and I got the Cambodian beef stew cuz I wanted to try something new. The egg rolls were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The portions were big. The large pho for the kids was more than enough and we filled the whole to-go container to take home. My beef stew was flavorful with plenty of meat. We were very satisfied with our meal. The kids ate quite a bit so u know it's good food. We will definitely return if we were ever in the area again.

    We kind of found this place on accident. We intended to dine at sophy's down a few blocks but they were closed . So we backtracked to Wok and Pho . We were greeted by a friendly smiling lady behind the counter. The patient lady left us to look over the menu . Of course we were undecided on what we want to eat . She did make some suggestions and of course we all went with what she recommended for us to eat lol! The restaurant most popular stir fried noodles cambodian mee kah tang ( similar to chow fun or lad Nah but better ) Mee kah tang were delicious and in the middle of us eating , we ordered another plate. Hubby had baw baw Kreung , cambodian pork blood and pork innards rice porridge. It was ok for us. Missing that savory taste as we were accustomed to at other establishments. The lady also recommends their special pork sliced over rice with some delicious sauce. Yup! It's different and it was a winner for sure. I had their kuy teav Phnom Penh, cambodian pork broth rice noodle soup. It's lacking flavors for me . It's not bad , but it could be better. The broth is bland and missing that umami aroma . Overall we had an excellent service and food were delicious.

    Cambodian beef stew is sooooo bomb!! Affordable and such high quality food

Between the chaotic parking situation and feeling rushed through the meal, it took away from what could have been a great dining experience. Good food, but the atmosphere and service style completely turned me off from wanting to come back.

The portions are huge and perfect for sharing family-style, especially with larger groups. They've always handled big parties well, though I'd definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time since they can get busy. The ambiance is probably the one area that could use some improvement, but the food and portions more than make up for it. If it's your first time, I'd recommend the chicken corn soup, sweet and sour chicken, green onion paratha, and Mongolian beef.

Apparently the version here come pre-wrapped, but I didn't mind since I was a first timer. The wrapper functions a lot like a tortilla, but much more delicate. I like the mixture of chicken, wood ear mushrooms and cabbage maybe? Textually it's crunchy and I like that in the soft wrapper. The salt & pepper tofu is sautéed with jalapeños which give it a nice kick. It's not your classic version of the this dish because the tofu is cubed into bite sized pieces and tastes a little more peanut-y than salt and pepper-y, but I didn't mind it.
