Pho Nam Cali was an amazing experience! The food was fresh and flavorful, the service was friendly and quick, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. I dined in and everything from start to finish was perfect. Definitely coming back!”

Every time I eat here the food is served at a fast pace & is always clean and fresh. They’re quick to serving your water but not really checking in on you a second time to see if you need anything else. Still, it’s a solid spot for a quick, tasty meal.

I been coming for about 4 years and it’s my number one place to come and their chicken pho is so good!!! And I recommend their strawberry milk tea after if your craving something sweet.
