    Pho with steak (which is underneath)
    Katrina N.

    Found this place on Yelp as I was in the area looking for hot soup. It's tucked away in a small plaza. Parking IMO wasn't so great as people parked in 2 parking spots (on/over the line). The parking space is already compact. Upon entering, there are two seating area. The one to the left seemed to be where they were seating everyone. And the seating area on the right seemed more for private parties (?) Their menu is pretty simple: appetizers, pho, rice/vermicelli dishes, and drinks. I order the pho with steak. There are options for other meats. The broth is very light and tasty. They give a good portion of meat (although you can't see it in my picture. Service was okay. Didn't really get much other than when I ordered and asking for to-go containers for my leftovers.

    Pho
    Danny H.

    We came here super late because it was one of the few places open late night. We order a bowl of pho and the garlic wings. The food was fantastic. The broth was light and flavorful, did not need any additional sauce at all. The wings had the perfect crunch and a nice sweet and tang (reminded me of a honey-soy type sauce). The size of the wings were great and the bowl for the pho was a decent sized bowl with plenty of meat. If you're out and about late and looking for a place to eat late night, check this place out.

    BBQ pork ribs egg and rice with salad
    Jaime P.

    GREAT FOOD ! I tried the pork rib and egg with salad and the flavor is awesome kinda sweet like bulgogi but tender loved the rice and the salad ! Fast friendly service and 2 TVs but not too loud that you can't talk to each other. Rocket shrimp are good and the garlic noodles are addicting lol . Bee back soon ! Me and my mother love this place me and my brother also . Thank you !!

    Wow Pho & Steak | Vietnamese | Anaheim Pho đặc biệt + Solid bowl of pho at a decent price. Not the best #goodeats but I'd never complain coming here. Broth is fairly flavorful and there's a decent amount of meat. Great place for us to grab a quick bite after the gym.

    Must try! Their pho is so good! I always come here when I'm craving for a nice bowl of pho. Broth is light yet flavorful. Just about every item I've tried on their menu is good actually. Great service, generous portions, reasonable prices.

    Bun cha Hanoi
    Katie N.

    Another day another Vietnamese restaurant review!!! Bún Chả Hà Nội: 5/5 The meat patties and slices were perfectly marinated, and all of the flavors shone through. Tender without being overly fatty. This restaurant does not skimp on the veggies! For the price, you get a filling portion. Service: 5/5 The employees were very nice and attentive. They took our order quickly and answered our questions about the menu. Ambiance: 3/5 The restaurant is older but clean. The ambiance lost points because there was no music -- the place was dead silent, which brought the experience and mood down. Overall: The Bún Chả Hà Nội was good and the prices are fair. Since I didn't enjoy the ambiance, I think this is a solid place for takeout.

    Quail

    This place has a very nice vibe to it once inside. This restaurant has very friendly service, decent amount of menu options, and everything at a great price! I highly recommend you to try their quail for an appetizer if you're really hungry for something other than pho. I will gladly return!

    Have been going every few weeks for about a year now and it is my favorite pho place of all time! The service is polite and quick and the overall environment is very peaceful. For the food, the prices are very reasonable and there is always a surplus of meat in the combination pho. The broth is very flavorful, but not too overpowering. Overall, I absolutely love this place and would strongly recommend that anyone in the area try it!

    Requested Side of Onions (no charge)
    Steven R.

    The high ratings on Yelp led me to try this place as it is located pretty close to home. Located in a small plaza is Wow Pho & Steak. This restaurant was previously a Chinese restaurant. It was previously called Choi's restaurant and then it became Mixx Kitchen. This isn't a good location for a restaurant as it seems to always be empty whenever I pass by. Came in on a Monday evening shortly after 5pm and was greeted by a kind lady. Interior was fairly clean, but the restaurant itself felt lonely. The layout seems kind of weird as there were two separate rooms. We were the only ones inside until one party showed up shortly after. Nobody else came in after that party while we were there. Food: P3 (Pho Tai Filet) $15 - Meat was tender, but a little chewy at the same time. Decent amount of meat & noodles. P7 (Pho Bo Vien) $14 - Typical meatball size (10 pieces). Good portion just like P3. Broth was pretty light yet oily. Personally, I didn't think it had that heavy depth of flavor overall. There's only one size the pho bowl comes in and I must admit, it's a pretty decent portion, not too small and not too overwhelming. My guest and I both had left over soup, but finished all our noodles. The veggies on the side were solid (bean sprouts, lime, jalapeno, basil) and the side of onions requested were a decent portion to share for two. Overall, it was just okay. Simple quick meal if you want a quick pho fix and you happen to be in the area. PS, They do serve beer here if you're interested in drinking with many other food options available on the menu. We were going to order egg rolls, but the price seemed kind of steep as it was 4 pieces for $10. We both got a stomachache after eating, but it could have been due to something else we ate prior to coming here. Not sure if we'd come back unless the other nearby pho restaurants were closed.

    Went to Disney and was looking to get some birrea ramen but the place I go was closed. So then decided to get some pho Went on yelp and saw this place which took over the Chinese restaurant. I called to order and they answered and took my to go order. I picked it up and went home and it was delicious. They put a good amount of meat in it and everything was really hot.

    MUST TRY their amazing bò lúc lắc mì toi (shaken beef) with garlic noodle. Quiet atmosphere, clean interior. Quick service. Would return for this!

    The food here is so good! I usually get the shaken salmon. Nice service, they open late as well (11pm) which is nice.

    My friend and I happened to be in the area and came across a TikTok showing the food at VOX…read moreKitchen, and we immediately said, "Okay, we HAVE to try this place." And I am SO glad we did because everything about our experience was seriously a 10/10! From the moment we walked in, the customer service was amazing. The gentleman at the front greeted us and escorted us to our table, and right away we felt welcomed and comfortable. Our server, Quang, was absolutely the sweetest! He was so friendly, outgoing, attentive, and helpful, especially when it came to giving us recommendations since it was our first time there. He had such a positive energy and really made our experience even better. And the FOOD!!! If I could give it 1,000/10, I seriously would. We tried the Ube Cloud, Vietnamese Iced Coffee, Garlic Parmesan Fries, Spicy Shrimp Wontons, Corn Ribs, Garlic Butter Prawns, and Filet Garlic Noodles, and honestly, there wasn't ONE thing we didn't enjoy. Everything was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. But what really stood out to us was that it wasn't just the food -- it was the entire experience. The staff, the atmosphere, the music, and just the overall vibe made us feel so comfortable and welcomed. The music they were playing was amazing too! My friend and I were enjoying ourselves, eating good food, listening to good music, and just having such a great time. The whole place honestly had such a warm, homey feeling to it. When we were leaving, the gentleman who had greeted and seated us earlier ended up having a whole conversation with my friend and me. He was so sweet and personable! He mentioned that they may be opening a location in Culver City, and I told him I really hope they do because that would be much closer to home for me. I was even joking with him that if they open one, they need to bring the whole staff from this location over there too because everyone here was THAT amazing. At the same time, even if there ends up being a location closer to me, I would honestly still make the drive back to this one. When you visit somewhere for the first time and have such a great experience, that location becomes special. You can visit the same restaurant somewhere else, but the people, atmosphere, and experience aren't necessarily going to feel the same. This location definitely left that kind of impression on us. I really hope this review reaches management because the staff here deserves the recognition. Everyone we interacted with was wonderful, and Quang especially took such great care of us. This was our first time at VOX Kitchen, but it DEFINITELY won't be our last. We're already talking about coming back and bringing our family and more of our friends so we can all enjoy it together. 10/10 food. 10/10 service. 10/10 atmosphere. 10/10 experience. You guys definitely gained some returning customers!

    I didn't know fusion food could taste so good! Today I learned that Chifa is Cantonese Peruvian…read morefood, and I honestly love it so much! Saltado fries with picanha: fries were deliciously fried so that it's crispy but doesn't get soft in the saltado sauce. The picanha was super tender and juicy! Vox pear salad: a refreshing starter with a healthy bed of arugula on top of burrata and pear. The balsamic glaze really pulled it together! Corn ribs: just finger licking delicious Chifa fried rice with filet mignon: fried rice was solid but didn't have the most wok hey flavor that I usually like. It was a bit too moist for fried rice. Filet mignon was a bit tough, but flavor was good! Garlic noodles with crispy salmon: yummy salmon and yummy garlic noodles (could be more garlicky). I wonder if these two could have been more cohesive together somehow, but both individual parts were good! My friend told me this restaurant's owner had a few other fusion restaurants in the plaza, so I'll have to try those as well!

Be prepared: this place is incredibly popular, especially during peak hours. Parking can definitely be challenging because of how busy it is. The last time I visited on a Monday, the lot was completely full, and I ended up parking on the street. The restaurant is also primarily cash only, so come prepared. They open early, making it a perfect breakfast spot for an early bowl of pho. The pho broth is exactly what I want when I'm craving comfort food--clean, flavorful, and incredibly soothing. However, the star of the meal for me was the chả giò. Wow. Although they arrived after our pho, they came out at the perfect temperature. I was hesitant to take a bite right away because freshly fried food usually burns my mouth, but these were just right. Crispy, airy, savory, and absolutely delicious. Paired with their fish sauce, it was perfection. I enjoyed the egg rolls so much that next time I'm definitely ordering the egg roll vermicelli bowl. Service was friendly and prompt despite how busy it was, and it's clear the staff works hard to keep things moving. One thing I love is seeing all of the awards and accolades displayed on the walls. Phở 79 received the prestigious James Beard America's Classics Award, and it's easy to understand why after one meal here. This restaurant is truly an Orange County icon. The restaurant will soon be moving to a new location, as signs throughout the restaurant announce the upcoming move. While I'll miss the original spot, I'm excited for the new space--hopefully with more parking! Some places are worth the wait, and Phở 79 is absolutely one of them.

It's a more trendy and modern take on classic Vietnamese tavern fare; the type of cuisine you'd have with beers and liquors late at night, focusing on seafood. However, I would prefer if there was a more flexible grace period for late arrivals especially since they keep telling waitlist parties to check in far too early. The last time I went, the servers were so incompetent. One of them would stack dishes on top of dishes that were already there and get the food dirty and overcrowding the table; this got really hazardous when it got to the tabletop gas stove and hot pot... we had to look out for safety instead of him just doing his job. I felt absolutely disrespected having our serious legitimate concerns so trivialized. We seriously have had such mixed experiences with service coming here. Mostly solid or above average, though never really outstanding, as well as those few very bad ones. I hope to be proven wrong or to see change for the better my next few dine-ins.

My go-to is the pork sandwich, and it is SO good. The pork is incredibly juicy and marinated perfectly, with so much flavor in every bite. I also love how generous they are with the cilantro because it really makes the sandwich for me. And you HAVE to get the green sauce on top!

    Lately I've been exploring Vietnamese food and when I looked at Nguyen's Kitchen's menu, I was…read moreintrigued by some of their menu items, so I decided to go check them out. I was meeting my foodie friend there at 12:30. The parking lot has limited space, which made it an extra challenge to park. Thankfully I only had to circle the block once to come back and snag a spot. (Meanwhile, my friend got there before me and was already enjoying an appetizer). Orders are placed at the counter and they call your number once your food is ready. The dining room consists of mostly booth seating with one "communal" table, and counter seating with 5ish chairs. There are also a handful of tables set outside. I've really been enjoying banh mi and their Bulgogi beef sandwich sounded great. I also happen to have a thing for popcorn chicken, so I got an order of that to round out my lunch. Oh, and based on the rave reviews I've read about their peach & lychee green tea, I ordered one of those as well. Let me just say, lunch was very satisfying! The sandwich was generously filled the fresh ingredients and the meat to veggie ratio was perfect. I'm not sure what the green sauce was that they finished the sammie off with but it was SO tasty!! I requested the popcorn chicken with medium heat and it was just spicy enough to leave my tongue tingling slightly. My friend saved an egg roll for me and it was also really good. (The tea by the way was very refreshing.) Now, this was my first time here but I never saw anyone come out to check the dining room or wipe down the tables after the lunch rush. This was especially concerning to me because they had a guy doing work on the windows who put his feet/ shoes on the tables right under said windows. Ewww. But aside from the parking challenge and the table hygiene/cleanliness, our visit was quite enjoyable and the food was very good. We would definitely return, but we'll have to plan around the lunch rush!
