47 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near La Jolla

“I came down with some kind of cough/ could thing with a lot of congestion, and I have been eating lunch here literally every day for several days now. Every single time I eat the #17 with veggie broth, steamed tofu and vegetables, I feel better. And each day, my symptoms have improved. The food is fresh, and delicious, and it has noticeably improved my symptoms. I think I am on the verge of getting better now because of the Pho. It is not only fresh, and filling, it is very good for you, too! If you're sick with a virus or cold or cough and congestion, or just a little hungry, get the pho at Pho La Jolla - it's great for your health, and it's filling and tastes, good, too!“

“Our server Trinity was super friendly and welcoming! I tried the egg rolls, chicken wings and got short rib boneless pho. The egg rolls and chicken were crunchy and delicious, and the pho was really good. Overall 10/10 food and 10/10 experience!“

“This is honestly my absolute favorite pho place in San Diego. My favorite thing to get here is the pho tai and it hits everytime. I have tried other things here as well and everything else I tried was also delicious but I am a SUCKER for their pho broth. Not only is their food amazing the staff is incredibly friendly and I get excellent service every single time. If you haven’t been here already.. you really should !!“

“Great food and a wonderful dining experience“

“Great tasting and refreshing Vietnamese cuisine at Pho Fusion near Convoy Street! Nice casual shop great for dining in or ordering take out. We enjoyed the #1 dac biet steak pho and #40 Bún Thit Nu’óng vermicelli noodle with grilled pork strips. The Thai tea with boba was yummy. Friendly staff and quick service. The restaurant closes at 7 so make sure to come earlier. Recommend!“

“Fresh and Yummy Banh Mi Sandwiches!!“

“I was staying close by and ordered some to-go. OMG!! I have never had rolls so unique and good. And I'm SE Asian!
Coconut dipping sauce. Muah! The secret crunch on the inside of the spring rolls... Very unexpected.
The twin cities SE Asian communities need to adopt some of these ideas. I wish I was staying longer so I could try more. Hats off to you. Highly recommended.“

“I had the spicy beef soup It was excellent, top quality. You have to taste it to believe it. I also had the fried chicken wings . This is a hidden gem of San Diego.“

“Food is delicious with great affordable prices. Definitely worth the drive.“

“Fast service. Fresh Vegetables & delicious foods. Grilled & BBQ Kobe & Pork are to die for. Egg rolls are tops.“

“I’m giving 5 stars, despite the price. This might be the most expensive place in the San Diego area to get a bowl of pho. However the broth is sooooo gooooooood. And the cuts of meat are super premium. I come to this place DESPITE the price, if that gives you any idea.“

“The banh mi sandwiches are always wonderful and a dollar or two more than a McDonalds burger. Grilled pork and pork belly sandwiches are all I’ve ever had here (in 20 visits). Some day I’ll branch out 😀“

“They have great vegetarian options and I haven’t been disappointed with a single dish. Very delicious!“

“Photastic dining experience! The Best ever. Great service and timely in food preparation. The place to enjoy Pho in all of San Diego 5 stars review.“

“Best food, drink, service and atmosphere I have experienced in a long time. Rivals Michelin restaurants.“

“Food came out quickly. Good quality.“

“In a city where coffee is mediocre and the shops are performative, Saigon Coffee stands among the few offering truly delicious selections. I ordered their original and was delighted and how bold and rich the flavor is. As someone who suffers from phlegm coughs, the drink gave me no such issue.“

“Really enjoy going to Saigon Corner! The food is delicious and the portion sizes are generous! Their coffee selection is also top notch! The iced Ube Coffee and Vietnamese Salted Coffee is superb! I find myself walking in frequently! I highly recommend!“

“This is our favorite new neighborhood restaurant. Max was helpful with recommending the chicken wings as a starter. The Rib Eye Pho and Rib Bone Pho were amazing. We’ve also enjoyed the calamari on a previous visit. Abi was helpful in keeping our drinks replenished. All the staff create a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere, which will keep us coming back for years to come.“

“My second time trying pho here and WOW! hands down the BEST pho I’ve had. The atmosphere was amazing, low lighting, cozy, and such a good vibe overall. The server was incredibly welcoming and made the whole experience even better. Pho #1 was absolutely delicious. So happy I came here and got to experience such amazing flavor.“

“I loved their manu, easy to read (clear display) and price- friendly! of course the food is very good!“

“I was in the area visiting from LA with my future in-laws who are locals.They have been coming here for years and always shared how delicious it was.I was blown away by the food. The service is outstanding. It is owned and operated by a family. I will absolutely be back and recommend to anyone who likes Vietnamese cuisine.“

“Came here for lunch on a Sunday.

The atmosphere is super welcoming and the staff is very friendly, the food is very good and priced well. A lot of different menu offerings, I got the filet mignon pho and a lychee tea.

There are a few other items that caught my eye. The tables around me got a variety of different foods and everything looked very appetizing. The portion size is great. I recommend this place for sure. Ample parking, right down the street from main area of PB“

“There aren't many options on the menu, but the food was pretty phenomenal. The broth for the Phở was definitely slow cooked for a long time. It was rich and fatty and you can taste the herbs.

The service was slow. When we got there, there were three empty tables but they weren't cleared off. We waited for about 15 to 20 minutes get seated. There seemed to be only one person working as server, cashier and bussing tables (we were there on Sunday for a late lunch). When we did finally get seated, service picked up a bit. But they did forget to bring the side of bean sprouts, basil and lemon for our Phở“

“Loved my impromptu dine-in experience! I was waiting for my car to be fixed and found Pho Ha Noi on Google since it was a short walk away. The dine-in experience is basic & straight forward - you order at the counter and they bring the food to you when it’s ready.

I tried the grilled shrimp vermicelli noodle bowl and an iced Vietnamese coffee to-go. The server was very friendly & efficient and the food was delicious! I loved the pickled vegetables, the veggies were fresh, and the shrimp was sautéed with perfectly crisp/golden garlic & onions. I would definitely eat here again since I’d like to try a tofu dish 😊“

“I went with my wife, my brother and one of my sisters. It was about three minutes before eight p.m. when we got there and my brother asked me to go in first. What I didn't know was that they close at eight and my brother, a long time customer, wanted to see if they would let us in or tell us it was closed before he got out of the car. Fortunately, they let us in despite the late hour. Not only that, they recognized my brother and fussed over us as if we were a group of celebrities. They were very polite and friendly despite the fact that we were keeping them at work after their closing hour. The food was excellent and was was served very quickly since we were the only customers there.“

“Excellent sandwich shop! It is very clean and spacious. The service is quick, friendly and helpful. Prices on all the items are very fair, especially for this area. The egg rolls are some of the best around, and don't miss the taro shake.“

“Awe man - I love this place, I would go to my grave saying it’s probably my favorite Pho place…… but, I had to leave a comment to tell you guys… as a soup restaurant, you really really really should be using containers for to go orders that don’t spill when slightly tipped. I was really upset to find a slightly tipped cup of soup completely emptied in my bag and soaked my car, which other food items - I mean cmon guys“

“Excellent banh mi, but so much more: incredible, stoked fusion food. Bahn Mi tacos, fries, breakfast burritos and crazy, fantastic salt and pepper wings. Anything you grew up with had a San Diego taco shop, but with Vietnamese spin and great service. You can't go wrong here.“

“Yummy pho 🍜👍🏽😀 Friendly. 🤍“

“Found this little gem through Maps app and it exceeded my expectations. Don't let the little strip mall exterior fool you, the food is legit and the prices are reasonable. Will definitely be adding this to my list of go-to take out places. Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes Spring Roll, Marinated Grilled Pork, Rolls“

“Got take out from here yesterday. Pork bahn mi and chicken curry. Bahn mi was great, would order again. Curry was much more similar to chicken noodle soup (Without the noodles) than any curry i've had before. Was still good, just not what i was expecting.“

“Sipz Vegetarian Fusion Café in Clairemont is DELICIOUS! And ALL vegetarian! That’s right none of this is meat!! BBQ Chicken Appetizer and Tangy Orange Protein: "Chicken" Spice Level: Not Spicy (I forgot to take pictures before starting to eat sooo they give you more than what’s in the photos 🤣) You can even customize which type of protein you want and spice level so you get what you really want! And it is SO yummy!! I haven’t had Chinese in SO long!! ❤️“

“The best authentic Vietnamese"banh mi" in Southern California. I live in LA, but every time I travel to San Diego, Paris Bakery is always my first place to visit. They have a variety type of Banh mi with reasonable price, their tastes are always delicious.“

“My new favourite. Soooo goood!“

“Yummy drinks at GuilTea Cravings in Clairemont! Nice, chill vibe great for working on the laptop or playing many of the available games with friends. We enjoyed the strawberry matcha bliss, coco-matcha milk tea, and hibiscus strawberry tea. Going to need to try some of the pastries next time. Along with games you can use, there are also some books and children’s books. Very friendly and helpful staff. Recommend!“

“Great food and beautiful outdoor seating.“

“I came for lunch, we were seated quickly and we got the food really fast after we ordered. The staff were friendly and attentive too :)
We both got pho and it was delicious, the broth was flavorful and the noodles were nice too.

At other places I've had bland broth and noodles that are stuck together but that wasn't the case here :)

10/10 recommend! <3“

“This place is small but OMG! Don't put the food in your mouth when it comes to your table because it is literally steaming hot! The chicken wings are like none I've ever had and fantastic orange chicken, egg rolls etc... DON'T MISS OUT!“

“Tofu fresh spring rolls are delicious! Also the pho is very tasty.“

“The food here is delicious. All the ingredients tasted very fresh.

For an appetizer I tried the chicken wings - nice and crispy with a very tasty sauce. Also had the Pho chicken which was great, I will definitely be back for it.

Nice and quiet atmosphere. Went at lunchtime and was surprised I was the only one in there since the food is so good.“

“Came here for lunch on a Sunday and it was almost empty. Didn't matter, that pho broth was hitting. It's rich too. Prob the smallest bowl of pho I've eaten but it's packed and theyre not light with the tripe and tendons thank goodness. They also had all these faded photos with customers - at first I think they were celebrities but they were actually the regulars - it was very sweet

Extremely quick service.“

“Fried garlic pork with steamed rice 😍“

“Everything about this place is perfect, egg rolls are extra crispy and tasty, the pho broth tastes very delicious. The rare steak meat is very lean, with the well done strips made from a lean brisket style cut, exactly the way pho should be. So many places changed their meat to a stringy, fatty cut that feels like scraps. Not here, great portions for the prices, the water has LIME slices in it, not lemon, and trust me there's a very particular difference in how that changes the palate and they know it too. The food is made with love here and I loved everything about it.“

“Súper rico , el caldo es lo mejor 👌🏼😊“
