I saw this place being featured on tv so I decided to stop in and order some pho to go before going to Rodeo Dr. I love pho and this place did not disappoint. The broth tastes yummy and I also ordered a strawberry smoothie that was delicious. I only wish they offer clear aloe as an option if you don't prefer the boba. I will definitely return whenever I am in the area again.

Spring rolls were super yummy! Haven't tried anything else yet but I've only heard great things.

Stopped in Saigon Pearl on a rainy Saturday after checking out the Peterson finally up the street. When I first came in there was a large group waiting to be seated. The space isn't big so I was sort of awkwardly crammed up against the door with someone else trying to get takeout. Again, this is a rainy Saturday mid afternoon so not busy otherwise. Someone could have told the group to step to the side, acknowledging the rest of us, while they waited instead of holding up other patrons. Anyways I'll let it slide. Ordered the Vegetarian Pho which I made sure had some tofu as I'm a growing veggie boy, and a beer. Food came out pretty quickly and my waitress was super attentive and sweet. The pho was very good and stock full of veggies. The tofu was crisp to perfection though I wish they had a little more than the three pieces. However I felt stuffed by the end of it and I can usually eat a ton, so hefty portion I'd say. The space is very cozy and cool vibes with books and things laying around. Really cool holders for the receipts too (see picture). Overall pretty solid Pho spot and I'd definitely come back again.

They run hot and cold, no pun intended. The last time I ate there, my beef bowl was out in three minutes, obviously it was not freshly cooked. Nice people and service, but the food has to be consistent and it is not.

Decided to give pho a shot on the west side, since there doesn't seem to be much option. I got the combo pho and the taste is fine, but pricey for what it is. Portions weren't that big for like 17-18 dollars a bowl. Not that much noodles and meats. Finished it quick and was still hungry. Spoiled with options in the OC. But if you live in the area and got a craving for pho, it's aight. Avocado smoothie was good tho. Would get again.

I am an Asian food fanatic and am pretty picky about foods and this place did NOT disappoint. We got the Saigon Porkchop which was a 12/10!! We also had the beef salad appetizer that I can’t recommend ENOUGH! Our server was so nice and relatable and Janet was so kind and friendly. We’re just visiting LA and the only downside is that we won’t have this restaurant back home :,). Planning on coming back here before we leave. PLEASE COME HERE !! - I also have never written a review about a restaurant before but this place made me want to IMMEDIATELY. THANK YOU FOR THE BEST SERVICE AND FOOD !!

We came here with high expectations, but as it turned out, the food was just average almost below average for the high price. I wouldn't recommend

Phonomenal! Authentic, cool, family place pho great food made with love and no MSG. Great selections of various pho served by phun people! The phofax was excellent as well as the Vietnamese coffee. Loved the 80's accents of cassette tapes, VCR movies, and phamily pictures adorning the walls (this place is run by the children of the Vietnamese Boat people who fled Vietnam after the Vietnam war). Sorry Ms. Jackson, this place IS FO REAL

They were so nice and the food was so scrumptious! Cannot recommend this place enough. Also very accommodating to little ones! Authentic pho but modern and playful vibes.
