Arrived to this restaurant only to see a for least sign. Disappointing. Don't come. Yelp need to update this business.

So happy this place is still here. Been frequenting this fine establishment since 2008. The food is always fresh and delicious, service is always great. Happy to have them back on my rotation.

Like this place normally, drive all the way here to get an order and the place was closed. Looks closed indefinitely. Usually has a closed/open sign and hours outside. Now nothing on the windows.

Been coming here years now to safisfy my Pho fix.Absolutely Phobulous(great name) is family run. It's a relatively small space on La Cienega a few doors from BevMo. It's pretty bare bones and very simple/basic in it's appearance. Has that look where they seem to be perpetually working on its appearance.The menu is not large, but they cover the necessary basics for a Vietnamese restaurant whose focus is primarily on Pho and they do a good job with just about everything on the menu.The place is not fancy by any stretch of the imagination, but I go there for the food not the decor. And I can say that they certainly "hit the spot" and always relieve the itch I sometimes get for comfort food.(especially during this hard, winter storm SoCal is going through). Certainly better than the ramen place across the street and prices are fair, especially while we're in the middle of a brutal inflationary period of economics.Btw, they do have some vegetarian options; however, I don't know if they're vegan. I do order the vegetarian pho once in a while.Vegetarian options: They do have some vegetarian options. I do not know if any are vegan.Parking: I usually park on La Cienega Blvd. They do have a small lot in the rear of the building with limited spaces. Access is through the. back alley.Wheelchair accessibility: No formal ramp, but a very short and slight incline from the sidewalk to front door threshold.

This is my go to PHO spot for 2 years. It's very affordable price and yummy brisket and steak pho. I took one star down because few times a broth were a little bit salty, but overall it's a very good and convenient place to get a pho for to go. Especially in this cold and rainy days!

I came here all the time but the last time I came a COCKROACH crawl across my toes... the pho is good but I'm still too traumatized to comeback. The lady there didn't charge me for my food cuz I didn't even it.

I really wanted to like this place and even have them a 2nd chance even though the first experience was horrible.. it's just so convenient to the hospital that my dad was admitted into. I don't mind the quaint small place, but the server does a half a** job, doesn't know the menu well, things you want on the menu they don't have, and the food is mediocre

Not the newest of places but the food tastes great and the staff was super friendly. I ordered take out.
Don’t let the decor put you off, this hole in the wall serves amazing Pho.Excellent take-away option to have dinner in your hotel room.Service was fast and friendly.Great value for moneyThe chicken curry was my favourite

If your craving authentic Vietnamese food skip this place! It's a little hole in the wall that looks like a mom and pop place. We were very excited thinking this was going to be delicious and authentic. Boy were we wrong. We ordered the spring rolls to get started and at that point we were disappointed. First off they weren't wrapped tightly so they fall apart easily. And there was lettuce in them! Lettuce!! Not mint! The shrimp tasted very fishy! The Pho was tasteless and the Vietnamese coffee came pre made (did not brew at the table) and had a chemical taste. Very disappointing. Save yourself from a horrible experience. On the positive side our server was very kind.

I had the pho but the broth was one of the worst I had. Never would go back.

I am Vietnamese and must say this place needs to do better in properly representing Viet food. This was inauthentic Viet food. I was sadly disappointed by the Banh Mi and Spring Rolls. Banh mi had straight mayo, not the typical spread. Spring rolls had pork that almost tasted uncooked.Veggies needed to be more finely chopped. I did not end up eating the spring rolls and only ate half the banh mi. Money wasted. If you're looking for something authentic, I'd recommend going elsewhere.

I love the beef combo it is the best. Been visiting here for over a decade, it is my favorite pho spot even compared to places possibly more established. Why?, because the pho tastes so clean and authentic like the perfect blend of home cooking and restaurant. After a beef combo pho I feel energized and ready for the days adventure. Great for lunch and travelers. It's like the perfect spot that always delivers and never lets you down. Soup is consistent, the service is great, and location is nice.
