Love coming to this place for the past several years living in Chula Vista hidden gem great service, great flavors for a good value price. Love coming here after. The gym or Costco grocery shopping after a long day. The pho is wonderful but I always get wontons or orange

We were craving Asian food and this place definitely hit the spot! They have a full Chinese menu and serve Vietnamese food too. We ordered a beef pho as well as the 2 entree combo (orange chicken and curry). Everything tasted great (orange chicken was my favorite), prices were reasonable, and the lady serving us food was friendly. My only complaint was that the pho was a bit small. Overall, this place seems to serve pretty consistent and tasty food so I'll be back!

Orange chicken was really good for a dive spot of Chinese food. Service was good. It's old style restaurant. Clean

Our family of four came here while on vacation as this place was close to our hotel. This place has both Vietnamese and Chinese food which was a draw for us as the kids love Pho. It looked like a hole in the wall which we took as a good sign. It looks to be run by the husband and wife and their three kids were also there hanging out at a corner table. My 11 year old daughter and 7 year old son both ordered the Pho with meatballs. We noticed they had sriracha which was a surprise as there is a shortage at home in Virginia. My wife ordered the grilled pork vermicelli and I ordered a daily combo with fried rice, garlic chicken & sweet and sour chicken. All four of us really enjoyed our meal and the owners were very friendly. They said they are closed on Saturday and Sunday so be sure to come on the weekdays. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely come back.

Second visit: ordered spring rolls and a grilled chicken banh mi with jalapeño... they were both out of this world. Spring roll itself was as usual, but the dip (peanut sauce if I'm not mistaken) was exceptional. They added a dab of pepper and sent my taste buds glowing. By the time I finished the second roll, the sandwich came out. The crunchiness of the toasted bun, the juices from the chicken, the flavor of all the correctly proportioned seasonings... FLAWLESS! Both ladies tending were courteous and attentive. I will definitely continue to return to eat here while I'm in town.

I mean it when I say this place has the best Pho in San Diego!! I've been so disappointed by the pho in SD, and this place is the only one that is in the ranks of Pho in OC/LA area. Not only that, the other dishes are SO DELICIOUS!! Definitely get the fried salt shrimp...you will not regret it. We also got the lo mein, cream cheese wontons, bbq pork...it was all EXCELLENT. Great, friendly, fast service! Family owned and operated and great ambiance.

Great lunch display ready to go. Good fresh food at an okay price. I will be back. Much better than the Panda.

I was staying at the hotel next door for work. I came 30min before closing. The staff was very polite and the food was tasty. I came and they only had a (2) pre made trays for sale of the speedy take out Chinese food. They offered to cook me anything fresh. I wanted to try because of the Yelp reviews. I was not let down. This definitely reminds me of my home town Chinese food restaurant, nice little, speedy service restaurant. I'm not disappointed by anything. Noodles were flavorful and chicken was tasty. The portion size was proper.
