The pho here is so delicious and comforting! I’d highly recommend this placed if you’re looking for good food and an atmosphere where you can chat and catch up with friends. The music isn’t loud at all and the service here is so great with staff checking in on you and the food being brought out so quickly.

This is a pretty good pho restaurant. The soup is good and they have some other interesting options on the menu. The drawback is that they close early. Apart from that, it’s a great place.

The best (clean and simple) pho ever tasted with brisket, jalapeños, basil, and cilantro that made such a fantastic broth. The hoisin and sriracha sauces were also a great complement to add to the brisket pieces. They have lots of menu items to choose from, although I wish they also made banh mi there!

Great spot for Vietnamese food. The spring rolls are solid and the lemongrass beef vermicelli is good.

Awesome boba
This place use to be good in the beginning I have been eating here for 15 years my mom use to cutt the owners hair years ago it was a very nice place lately I don’t know if the owner changed or not but I don’t see him there and the service has become absolutely terrible, does not matter weather I’m sitting inside or outside we just get ignored they see us sitting and waiting and we even try to wave them down and they ignore us one of the waiters that terrible is a lady and she’s always wearing a hat and the other one is a guy who wear glasses his name I believe was Lee they both saw us sitting and waiting for over 35 min and just ignored us and it was not busy at all . I will unfortunately never be returning back to this place .

My family has been coming here since I was a kid, so it really was upsetting to have an experience turn out like it did today.
- The regular size bowl is much smaller than other pho places, but priced at almost $16 and large bowl at almost $18
- The soup tasted watered down and just didn’t have that umami it should have. Also spring rolls was mostly just lettuce.
- Service was ok, but they just kept coming over and over, and it felt rushed
- Flies because of the constant open door
The good side is that the ingredients were fresh and the lemon soda is also good.

Their pho is really good! Clean and rich flavored broth. That is all you want for a good pho. If you are in Irvine and looking for a good pho, this is the place.
It was a slow hours so I got the all attentions from the server but the service was good!

Whenever I crave a hot, comforting bowl of soup, Pho Ba Co is the only place I trust. Their pho is rich, flavorful, and consistently satisfying. Fresh herbs, tender meat, and a deep, hearty broth—what more could you want? Highly recommend!

Heaven! I had the Prawn skewer vermicelli salad with fish sauce which was so fresh, tangy and delicious.
I also ordered the Vietnamese iced coffee which I highly recommend. This one is unique and so good as they have a special coffee blend they use along with a bit of hazelnut. Friendly service as well!

Delicious! There was a decent amount of vegetarian options. I ordered the Vermicellu with Lemongrass Chili tofu, with fresh lime soda, and it did not disappoint. Will definitely return next time I'm in the area.
There are much better Vietnamese places to eat at the price point everything was going for.
