If you guys want affordable great food, this is the place to go. As a student, it’s difficult to find food that’s within a reasonable budget due to all other expenses, but this place honestly takes the cherry on top. Every time I’ve come to eat here it’s been great experience for me and not to mention the food is simply AMAZING.
To me, this is my go to Pho place every time I am around Pasadena or if I am going to PCC. Overall, all their food I’ve tried so far (and I’ve tried a lot from their menu) has not disappointed me.
Please give it a try, I am sure you’ll love it just as much!

Great food at a good price but they ran out of the herbs, vegetables, and the limes, but the pho still tasted great without them.

I got the pho, banh mi, and spring rolls. I got the pandan tofu pudding for free after spending at least $20. Everything tasted good. The banh mi didn't have the pate, which was a disappointment. I'm assuming it was probably due to the demographics in the area. They have a veggie and sauce bar for your pho.
They take credit card here.
The restaurant is clean and spacious.
In the back of the restaurant, they have a small parking lot.
Overall, my experience was good. I'd come back to try other items on the menu.

Only order at a kiosk mom and pop pho shop next to the Pasadena college. They need to give better service such as being accommodating to the needs of their guests. They don't allow uncooked noodles to be sent home even if you pay, which I know they can change and acclimate for their customers preference. They need more noodles in their plain pho. Other than that, they're hardworking servers just very unmindful to catering.

If you’re looking for amazing Vietnamese food, look no further than Phở Bảnh Mì Chè Cali! The restaurant may have an older appearance, but it’s very clean, well-maintained, and full of character.
The staff is so sweet, and I love how it feels like a family-run spot—you can truly taste the love in the food.
I tried:
✔️ Pho – Rich, flavorful broth with perfectly cooked noodles.
✔️ Banh Mi – Fresh, crispy baguette with deliciously seasoned fillings.
✔️ Spicy Fried Rice (Chicken & Shrimp) – Hands down, the best fried rice I’ve had at any restaurant.
✔️ Egg Rolls – Super crunchy, packed with flavor, and absolutely perfect.
Portion sizes are great, sometimes even more than expected, and the prices are fair for the quality. This is a place I’ll be recommending to everyone. If you love Vietnamese food, you need to try it!

Pho was great and bit of waiting because I came in the busy dinner hours, but it was well worth the wait! Thank you for the great Pho noodle!
