8 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Irvine

“Had a quick pho at Saiga during lunch and ended up sharing a table with a stranger, definitely a rushed experience as I had to move quickly for the next person’s turn. Personally, I don’t think I’ll be back, as the pho didn’t quite justify the price for me. That said, their business model is nice and efficient, catering well to the busy lunch crowd. A cool concept, but not my go-to for pho in OC.“

“Loved everything about this place- wait staff was great, and food was delicious. Loved all the colors, flavors and textures of the dishes. We had two kids with us (under the age of 8), so smart to get their food first, and they loved the crayons and coloring book. I got the Beef Belly Bowl and Calamansi White Peach NA drink. So good!“

“I have been eating here since 2002 while still in high school. First time ever eating Pho here. These 3 Viet guys from my classes introduced me to Pho at this place. Been going here whenever I’m craving Pho or Viet food in the Irvine area. The most flavorful Pho broth out of any Viet restaurant I’ve ever ate in California.“

“Ordering is a little confusing. There is a monitor that allows you the option of dine in or carryout. But then you need to go to front to pay before they make the order.

Food was ok. Yellow rice was a little dry, and the chicken thigh was tough and dry. Egg rolls were very good. People were very nice. Probably should have gotten the pho.“

“Wow, I found my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Orange County. Hands down tone of the best Pho and Rolls I have had. Shaken Beef and garlic noodles were so good. Only one problem, it wasn’t enough. All fairness, if they had given me a double portion, I would have eaten it. Haven’t experienced good quality food in a while, everything tasted to perfection.“

“Walked in and was greeted right away. Was asked for my order within a few minutes of sitting down. Food was brought out promptly. The large pho bowl was plenty, the flavor was great, the protein portions were generous. I was full when I left. The only area of improvement was that no one checked on me after food was brought out, which is not normal. No complaints, good local spot to frequent. Usually not too many people dining.“

“This is our go-to for pho in Orange County. Number one, they make take out so easy! Each order is packed perfectly with directions on reheating. Only once has my order been messed up and the manager gladly took care of me. The waitlist for in-person dining can be frustrating but trust me when I say it’s worth the weight…I mean wait. People often decide to not wait the entire time so they’ll drop off the list and your name will rise up faster. Our go to is the pho, take your pick as far as which protein option you prefer. The meat here is great in quality and flavor. We’re also a big fan of the fried rice and the wings!“

“This place has delicious Vietnamese Fusian foods. Nice environment and excellent customer service 👍👍 My first time here and I had a good experience. The staff was super nice and courteous ⭐️ I would definitely come back again with my friends and family. Highly recommended for everyone 😊“
