50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Arcadia

“Amazing little spot that my wife and I visit consistently at least once a week. The pho is always on point & they never seem to have an off day. Ann is always extremely friendly and service oriented & always makes sure our experience is very pleasant. Like most have mentioned, the egg rolls are also on point. Go & support this hole in the wall spot!“

“The broth is perfect! The sweet basil is sooooo good!! I love the egg rolls and how they serve them with lettuce and cucumber and a sweet sauce!!!“

“A nice option for pho and other Vietnamese classic dishes. The broth here is very satisfying and not overly salty. The portions are big and affordably priced. There are tons of seating inside as well as an outdoor patio. Food comes out quickly and was delicious. Staff are friendly and place is clean.“

“Very good food ! Very good food!“

“Excellent food and great service. Family owned and my favorite local eatery. Please try it.“

“loved eating there with pops“

“I randomly discovered the place for Ban Xeo. Quite an interesting dish. It is very crispy. You wrap each bite with the lettuce.
I am new to it, so my table was a bit of a mess.

The owner, a guy, spoke english. That’s good.

There was a sign that says they’ll take credit card, but charge a $1 fee. I think that’s a bit steep.

There’s ample parking at the back.“

“Although the restaurant is often crowded, the wait staff are usually responsive and able to attend to customers' needs.“

“delicious and fresh Nice place too.“

“Service was fast, friendly and very helpfull....food was also great by the way. I came on a weekend and it was very busy and had to wait but still was well worth it.“

“Arrived at this Vietnamese restaurant at noon on Sunday, surprisingly found that there were not too many customers, the decoration inside the store was simple but clean. Tasted their Vietnamese beef noodles, I felt that the soup was very rich and sweet, and the bowl was very large, which was probably worthy of the price. Although the serving process was a bit problematic, for example, I ordered two bowls of the same beef noodles, but they were served separately after a period of time, which was not ideal, but the waiter's attitude was quite thoughtful, which can add some points.“

“It's easily the best Banh Mi joint in all of SoCal. This place tops them all. The attention to detail is superb. They come individually packaged in a box, sauce, and veggies on the side to keep the sandwich crisp. Bread made in house, probably, based on the way the bread has irregular edges and the overall quality. Bread is soft and light in the middle and extra crispy on the outside. The best sandwich here is the Roasted Pork. Listen, there's the usual dry roasted pork you get from those roasted duck houses, and then there's this. All you foodies know what im talking about. This roast is simply done right. It's crispy and light skin around soft juicy meat and fat. No hard glass shards breaking off a over done wet roasted pork belly here. It's roasted to perfection. You know it's cooked at a perfect 165 to retain the juices. The chef really really knows what he/she is doing. Don't expect all meat and no fat. It's not a bourgeois place. And dont expect a 12 dollar rip off. It's not that either. It's a wholesome mom and pop join that service fair priced $7.50 specialty sandwiches that you can't even compare to quality in Vietnam's best joint. Come here with confidence, it's simply the best Banh Mi in all of Southern California. I'm willing to bet the best for its price in all of the US and Vietnam combined. Go try it and you will definitely agree. I challenge anyone to prove me wrong.“

““The bomb.com” Pico Rivera has needed a good Pho restaurant for a long time now. I tried this place the other day for the first time and it was just right. Had a sore throat due to this shitty December weather and it was very delicious and soothing. Little pricey but the quality is worth the price.“

“Nem Nướng Khánh Hoà is widely praised for its authentic Vietnamese cuisine and warm atmosphere. The restaurant’s specialty is nem nuong cuon, a dish of grilled pork meatballs wrapped in rice paper and served with fresh herbs and vegetables. The dish stands out for its flavorful, fresh grilled pork and the crunchy texture of the accompanying ingredients“

“Best bánh mì sandwich I ever ate. I had the #8 charbroiled pork. So good!! Very highly recommend this place.“

“This spot is a hidden gem for Vietnamese sandwiches. The BBQ pork sandwich is a must-try, bursting with flavor. Every item on the menu is authentic and delicious, making it my go-to spot. I recommend starting with the BBQ pork and exploring the rest. The quality is consistently excellent, perfect for a quick, satisfying meal. I always call ahead for a quick pick up. Parking lot gets crowded but never had an issue.“

“15. Com Tam King Special is good but not so good as expectation when it looks like the best one which this restaurant recommended.

79. House special with beef combo is really nice. Highly recommend. We would come again because of this beef noodle. The soup and beef is delicious.

The service is good. People here are very friendly and serve efficiently.“

“Taste good and portion large“

“They have really good vegetarian banh mi’s! It’s a bit far from where I live but I’m so glad to have tried it! Will be back again!

Also their Vietnamese iced coffee is really strong and good. My husband gave it the seal of approval. Thank goodness for this shop!“

“Great food. Love their Banh Mi and Spring Rolls.“

“Great food! I've been here twice and have tried the fresh shrimp and tofu spring rolls with terrific accompanying sauce, flavorful chicken fried rice, shrimp pho with delicious broth, and the lovely Lychee fruit tea! Yum! Totally coming here again... and bringing more friends. Mangosteen has a clean, modern atmosphere, primarily indoors with a couple of outdoor tables. Friendly and helpful customer service.“

“Was craving something warm & cozy while on a road trip & saw this pho spot on Yelp. They have a bunch of vegetarian/ vegan options which drew my attention. The vegetarian pho was delicious! They come in huge bowls! I hadn’t had pho in years & this hit the spot. Customer service is great and the inside ambiance was cute & decorative.“

“I ordered the pho soup and man I would this is the best pho I’ve had in America. Not gonna lie, the thai tea is amazing and that boba too.“

“Flavors are awesome!
Amazing pho place. One of the best Vietnamese food places in Montebello. The server she was excellent with courtesy and lots of people skills. Great service.
They have drive thru and parking in the back.“

“This place is nice and spacious, service was good. The Pho has good flavor. The wonton noodle soup was okay, but not sure what was in the wonton. ? …not a fan. Watch out for the tip calculations at the bottom of your receipt , it is done after tax is added on, which is wrong, should be calculated BEFORE TAX is added. Do your own calculation. Park in the parking structure in the back.“

“😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁“

“the food is always very flavorful“

“Free house special tea, choices of hot or ice cold. Yummy duck with refresh salad under neath it. First time to taste fried shredded banana flower on the side of the salad.
Super friendly waitress and waiter

Parking: Limited space but street parking is available“

““On a wonderful weekend day, my family and I went to MIỀN TÂY restaurant. We really liked this place; it was clean and spacious, with friendly and attentive service. The food was delicious, and we will definitely come back again soon.”“

“Food here is REALLY GOOD. Owners are really hands-on in making and delivering you the best version of their offerings. I had Pho Dac Biet and the Broken Rice. I haven’t had something this good in a while and i eat out all the time. Anyone reading this should not hesitate to come and try. You won’t be disappointed.“

“I’ve been coming here for whenever I want a quick, good Vietnamese sandwich. And they never disappoint.
I definitely recommend their meatball subs and their Saigon sandwich. Their croissant is big, fluffy and warm. Super yummy! Just anything in their menu, thank you very much super yummy.“

“Came on someone’s recommendation. My first impression was that they were understaffed and looked overwhelmed. There’s only a handful of full of tables in this modest restaurant. The wait was 30-45 minutes even though there weren’t that many customers. But we were invested after 15 minutes, so figured we’d rough it out. So glad we did because the food was sooooooo good. The portions are generous and everything tastes so fresh. The prices are also low compared to other places with less good food. They could easily raise their prices by $5 and I would still think it was worth it because it was so good. So come but be prepared to wait even when it’s not busy. Cash only. There’s street parking or if you can find the hidden side street that leads to their parking lot in the rear.“

“The food was perfect and the service was excellent! We don’t live close by. We were just visiting the San Gabriel Mission. However, whenever we go back to the area, we will definitely come back!“

“Our first time ever Trying the Vietnamese food! One word ; THE BEST!!“

“I haven't found a pho joint that can rival this place. All others are compared to this standard. Love this place.

“Absolutely my fav chicken Pho ever! Flavorful and tasty broth, but can confirm that not walking chicken (cage free) tho. Nice clean restaurant and they've AC 😜. The side sauce of Dry rice noodles was so good, yall have to try that one ☝️“

“Recently opened its door in the Temple City, Kim Hoa Hue Restaurant is the new culinary destination for Vietnamese cuisine lovers. Having moved to Temple City, it stands proudly across from Summer Roll, inviting diners to embark on a gastronomic journey to Vietnam’s former imperial capital.

The restaurant’s specialty, Bun Bo Hue, is a testament to the authentic flavors of Huế. This Vietnamese beef noodle soup, known for its spicy and robust taste, is served in a generous portion brimming with succulent meat. The rich and aromatic broth leaves a lingering warmth that is both comforting and invigorating.

For those eager to explore the breadth of Huế’s culinary landscape, the Hue Combo is a must-try. This dish is a culinary mosaic, showcasing the region’s famous noodle-based delights. It’s an ideal choice for newcomers and connoisseurs alike, offering a sample platter of Huế’s pride.

While the Bun didn’t quite meet expectations, it holds promise. A tweak in noodle texture to achieve that coveted al dente bite, paired with a more traditional Vietnamese egg roll, could elevate this dish to new heights.

The Pho presents a soulful broth that sings with depth and clarity. However, the noodles yearn for a bit more finesse to match the soup’s excellence.

Service at Kim Hoa Hue is attentive and earnest, although a broader grasp of English would enhance the overall experience. For now, Google Translate bridges the communication gap, adding a touch of modernity to the dining experience.

The ambiance is as fresh as the flavors, with a bright and contemporary setting that promises growth and refinement. Kim Hoa Hue Restaurant is a welcome addition to the neighborhood, offering a slice of Huế’s regal cuisine with every dish. With a few culinary tweaks, this establishment is poised to become a cornerstone of the local food scene.“

“We enjoy hanging out. Yesterday we visited this excellent place which we didn’t know before. We enjoyed a beautiful experience there with very good meal and a well-trained stuff and an impressive chief cook. We put this fine restaurant in our phone list and we will certainly go again very soon. We deeply recommend.“

“This Vietnamese restaurant might not have the most modern interior or be in the trendiest plaza, but the food and service make up for it. The staff is always friendly, and the dishes are consistently good.

One thing I really appreciate is how vegan and vegetarian-friendly the menu is. There’s a great selection of options for different diets. I tried the bánh canh and bî cúôn and they were flavorful. Whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, or into traditional dishes, they’ve got you covered.

If you’re after solid, no-frills Vietnamese food, this place is worth checking out.“

“Ahhhhh ahhhh AHHHHH!

I've found my pho place finally in SGV!!! I frequent Vinh Ky in Garden Grove and I have been on the hunt for the same decadent bowl of pho rhat is closer to me in SGV. Holy Jeebus! I found it and I cant believe it has always been close tk me all along.

Great service & great food! Their chili oil is self serve and very good! Their Che desserts are not bad, too.

The only thing that was lacking is the amount of mint/basil that they serve with their bowls, but I understand since a lot of people dont use them but Im one of those people that wanr to see all green on my bowl. But no sweat, I just asked for more!!

Thanks Pho Hai, I will be back!“

“Beautiful and very clean place, food is super delicious, customer service is excellent 👍🏻👍🏻 My family and I definitely will come back soon. Yes, I highly recommend this place.“

“Ordered number 30 and the meat was sweet and flavorful. Bean curd was pretty good. Egg with crab was actually very yummy but i didn't like the salted egg.
Pickled vegetables were DELISH in combo with everything else on the plate and it came with soup which was light and flavorful.

Also tried the passion fruit soda which was a unique kind of carbonation that was less bubble and more fizzy stingy? The passion fruit flavor was strong though which I enjoyed“

“I was walking around my air bnb neighbourhood and found this cute little restaurant. the waitress was such a sweetheart, very kind and efficient. She made the best Vietnamese ice coffee to! Will be back one day when I’m back in cali!“

“Was recommended garlic flavored soup with sliced beef. Flat rice noodles was right texture. Beef slices lightly blanched. Meal was accompanied with freshly deep fried spring rolls Thoroughly enjoy it Ample free parking easy to locate“

“This place has fast service, clean dining room and tasty soups and entrees. Always a go too in Pasadena.“

“This is my new favorite Vietnamese restaurant in the area! It is a bit pricier than other places in the area, but I don't mind since the quality of food is worth it in my opinion.

We ordered a variety of items for our small group, and everything I tried definitely hit all the right notes. The nem nuong summer rolls as appetizer has the thick nem nuong and added crispy textures. The variety of meats on com tam/broken rice or bun/rice vermicelli are all very well seasoned. My vietnamese relative approves the flavors of bun bo hue, although the portion is a bit smaller compared to other places. The item that impressed me was the banh mi. It is pricier than your average banh mi, but packed with tasty meats and 2 whole fried eggs. Great amount of yummy sauce and vegetables to balance it all out. They used a different kind of bread instead of traditional baguette, but works really well in my opinion.

Restaurant is full on Sunday but not hectic, so atmosphere is relaxing for a nice dinner out. The decor and ambiance has nice touches to them.

Also I found out they have 2 locations. This location has more space and better for groups. The other is a bit more trendy/poppy from what I heard. Still very similar menu.“

“Delicious! My friend took me here and I had to come back. They have delicious pho and bun bo hue. Their menu is simple and easy to read. Delicious and filling. The service is quality and caring. There is plenty of parking and bathroom available.“

“Generous portions and delicious taste. We ordered a large beef pho which was very sufficient for 2 people. Also got the beef with onion banh mi. Food came out pretty quick and service was very friendly too. Menu is huge with lots of choices. Great value for the price. Its located on the main road so limited parking spots available on the street.“
