I’ve been going to this place for nearly 15 years. Same friendly staff, same awesome food, same joy.
You guys cannot do any better. This place ought to be an example of how a restaurant is run.
I’ll keep coming till I can’t feed myself any more.

Order G1 Shaken Beef with Garlic Noodles!!!!
Best meat ever.
My mother and I walked in asking for a table for two and were led to a table in the corner of the restaurant, very tight with trash on the floor in that area. It didn’t seem very clean. We politely asked if we could sit somewhere else to which our server asked us why. We explained that we didn’t want to sit there only to be questioned again to which we pointed out the trash under the table. Very dismissively, the server said “Go on and find a seat over there then,” his attitude towards us felt very rude to the point where it was shocking. My mother and I, feeling quite disrespected in front of the rest of the customers, decided to not eat there and walk out. I don’t normally write reviews but I am genuinely so disappointed with how this restaurant’s customer service has progressed. My family and I are regulars to this location of pho the bowl because we love pho soup but noticed how, and I hope this isn’t a racial thing, differently we’re treated than with Caucasian customers. I don’t know if it’s the fact that we were regulars that they think we would come back no matter what but sorry, no. Also, I forgot to mention but the food quality has also gone down in the years we’ve been coming here. There’s been more than a few times where soup has come lukewarm instead of hot. The seafood combination has gotten blander to the point where I don’t order it anymore and just get the rice, meat, salad platter instead. This USED to be a great place, it’s very disappointing to see the state of it now.
The best pho you can get in this part of OC
This place definitely downhill over the years… my Pho came with pasta noodles!
Service sucks
This is my first time here and I actually really like it! I'll definitely come back whenever I'm in the area!!!
Food is pretty good here.
The food is really yummy here!

Absolutely the best pho by far. Most pho restaurants don’t serve pork pho but this place does. Not only that, but their meat is char flavored and tender and the greens are always fresh. Amazing!

We always enjoy the Pho and 3 item vermicelli rice noodle salad or Bun and usually have leftovers. Plenty of parking in the busy lot. We never have to wait for seating.

I just moved into the area and I started coming here and the man with the scar on his face is incredibly rude and has no customer service skills. I tried to engage him in conversation about his prices and he snapped at me and now every time I come in there he is very rude to me.. which is interesting because I’m paying $18 for soup. For soup!!! if you like this place, there is another one same name off of Crown Valley and Marguerite and they are much nicer there and a better vibe. Still same high prices but at least you’re not being talked to like you’re a POS. Do you think this guy would be nicer to his customer since they’re the ones paying to keep his doors open in Aliso Viejo. I will take my business somewhere else. Not to mention that the meat in the soup was brown instead of red, and there wasn’t very much of it. I just feel like there are plenty more pho places around, but treat you with respect when you walk in and give you good quality food I would suggest going there instead
