Pho On California Reviews
Parking available, small place. Quick service and food comes out extra hot. The chicken pho was delicious and well portioned. Same with spicy combo pho.
Really good, food came out in like 1 second. Great pho, debatably one of the best pho places in Pasadena.
Had the pho chay (vegetable pho) with vegetable broth and the vegetable vermicelli. Veggie pho broth was too salty in my opinion. My aunt thought so too. I did like they included many vegetables. Tofu could have had more in the pho.
The vegetable vermicelli was better. Could have used a little more fish sauce. Lots of veggies.
Guy was power washing the front of the floor of the restaurant while we were there which made it hard to converse. Would suggest they do it...read full review
