“Great food I had a bowl of Vietnamese favorite pho and love is“

“My one and only place for ordering party trays. Their food is absolutely delicious and their customer service is just amazing. Highly recommended !!“

“The food here is delicious..ate there twice and can't wait to go back.“

“My wife and I eat here easily once a week. We celebrated NYE dinner around 6:30, and it was pretty busy. The owner and two other employees were quick and made sure everyone was seated, order was taken, and had what they needed at all times. Food took a little longer, as expected, but they were kind enough to bring out a complimentary order of wings that we got to try for the first time! Incredibly delicious, I was only able to take a picture after not before lol. We will be ordering them from now on as an appetizer! If you try any new pho restaurants in San Diego this year, make sure this location is at the top of your list!! Our go to orders are as follows: Signature pho, beef rib pho, shaking beef, Thai iced tea, Vietnamese coffee, watermelon smoothie, matcha latte, and now the wings. Huge thank you to the staff and ownership for such an amazing restaurant. We can’t wait for more meals this new year :)“

“Stopped by Pho Hut & Grill and was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant has been remodeled and has a clean, modern feel. I really like the fast pho/food-service format—it makes ordering quick and easy without sacrificing quality.
The staff was very friendly and welcoming, which always makes a difference. One of the smartest features is the self-serve veggie and toppings bar. Being able to customize your bowl exactly how you want it is a great idea.
The tables are definitely unique! The base is a large center drum (looks like a 55-gallon drum), which gave me a good laugh because I practically had to straddle it to fit comfortably. Not a dealbreaker, just something memorable.
The location is easy to find right on Del Lago Blvd. Overall, a great spot for a quick bowl of pho with friendly service and a few unique touches. I'll definitely be back.“

“More than just a Bahn mi shop. Cali Baguette is an authentic Vietnamese eatery. Besides an amazing selection of sandwiches (btw you can actually smell the fresh baguettes being baked!) There is a multitude of snacks, drinks and desserts! The service and very warm hospitality are just as impressive as the food 👍 I will definitely be back again AND again!“

“Don’t order with your eyes because you won’t finish… trust me, it’s that good! They have to have the “best” Viet BANH CUON (steamed rice rolls) in town! Also the best BANH Mi Chao (Beef, sausage, meatball, eggs, and French roll skillet) for a great value too! I will most definitely come back again …and I live 30 minutes away in East Chula Vista! I highly recommend. 5 STARS!!!“

““It smells good in here! “that was so yummy and delicious!” all and more was said by my 3 year old. So he gives 5 stars. I really liked the food too. Our third time here and each time good service and delicious food. Will def be back. Thanks!“

“What an amazing place in heart of Lakeside
Customer service was amazing and even though they were a little pack they were attendant of everyone.
There pho and there food is amazing will defenately recommend to anyone it won't disappoint you.“

“Great portions and great taste. Very friendly servers, I recommend.“

“With 10 eateries in this tiny strip mall on a main road, you have a lot of choices. Choose this place. Fast friendly service. Great food at reasonable prices. Large portions. Want it mild? No problem. Like it spicy 🔥 they do that too.“

“Food is delicious with great affordable prices. Definitely worth the drive.“

“Photastic dining experience! The Best ever. Great service and timely in food preparation. The place to enjoy Pho in all of San Diego 5 stars review.“

“We’ve been coming here for like 15 years. The pho broth is one of the best: deeply savory but not too salty or sweet. It could rival some of the more popular Westminster spots.

I’d say this pho is a step above any of those pho franchises like Kevin’s Noodle House or Pho Lee Hoa Phat.

Service is always quick, efficient and with a smile. Bonus: they’re open on Christmas until 3pm!“

“So my roommates and I try new pho spots all the time, and this is one of the best spots we've been to in a while. The broth is herby, and just full of nice flavors it's not just the meat. The meat is also fantastic. The staff,
(I believe the owners?) we're an absolute delight. They cracked jokes with us, gave us recommendations, showed us a way to mix the sauces we hadn't already done. It was genuinely a great time and we will all be back.“

“Fast service. Fresh Vegetables & delicious foods. Grilled & BBQ Kobe & Pork are to die for. Egg rolls are tops.“

“They have great vegetarian options and I haven’t been disappointed with a single dish. Very delicious!“

“The food here is AMAZING! I got some fried rice, and it was so fresh you could taste everything so vividly. Sandwhiches are super fresh and bread is amazing. The staff are multilingual, and very kind. Their wide range of food is sure something to take advantage of. I will return!“

“Really enjoy going to Saigon Corner! The food is delicious and the portion sizes are generous! Their coffee selection is also top notch! The iced Ube Coffee and Vietnamese Salted Coffee is superb! I find myself walking in frequently! I highly recommend!“

“I loved their manu, easy to read (clear display) and price- friendly! of course the food is very good!“

“Loved my impromptu dine-in experience! I was waiting for my car to be fixed and found Pho Ha Noi on Google since it was a short walk away. The dine-in experience is basic & straight forward - you order at the counter and they bring the food to you when it’s ready.

I tried the grilled shrimp vermicelli noodle bowl and an iced Vietnamese coffee to-go. The server was very friendly & efficient and the food was delicious! I loved the pickled vegetables, the veggies were fresh, and the shrimp was sautéed with perfectly crisp/golden garlic & onions. I would definitely eat here again since I’d like to try a tofu dish 😊“

“There aren't many options on the menu, but the food was pretty phenomenal. The broth for the Phở was definitely slow cooked for a long time. It was rich and fatty and you can taste the herbs.

The service was slow. When we got there, there were three empty tables but they weren't cleared off. We waited for about 15 to 20 minutes get seated. There seemed to be only one person working as server, cashier and bussing tables (we were there on Sunday for a late lunch). When we did finally get seated, service picked up a bit. But they did forget to bring the side of bean sprouts, basil and lemon for our Phở“

“Excellent banh mi, but so much more: incredible, stoked fusion food. Bahn Mi tacos, fries, breakfast burritos and crazy, fantastic salt and pepper wings. Anything you grew up with had a San Diego taco shop, but with Vietnamese spin and great service. You can't go wrong here.“

“Sipz Vegetarian Fusion Café in Clairemont is DELICIOUS! And ALL vegetarian! That’s right none of this is meat!! BBQ Chicken Appetizer and Tangy Orange Protein: "Chicken" Spice Level: Not Spicy (I forgot to take pictures before starting to eat sooo they give you more than what’s in the photos 🤣) You can even customize which type of protein you want and spice level so you get what you really want! And it is SO yummy!! I haven’t had Chinese in SO long!! ❤️“

“Solid wonton noodle soup. Not the best, but good enough to satisfy cravings. The noodles aren’t as firm and springy as the ones in Hong Kong, but they’re passable. The restaurant is also conveniently located next to the Vietnamese supermarket.“

“My new favourite. Soooo goood!“

“The best authentic Vietnamese"banh mi" in Southern California. I live in LA, but every time I travel to San Diego, Paris Bakery is always my first place to visit. They have a variety type of Banh mi with reasonable price, their tastes are always delicious.“

“Bale French Sandwich is a tiny shop tucked away in Mira Mesa Square serving quick Vietnamese dishes like banh mi, fried rice, egg rolls, and boba.

We enjoyed the charbroiled pork and lemongrass chicken banh mi - a great value at $6.25 each. The bread had a great crust: thin, very crisp, and flaky. The pickled carrot and daikon added nice texture and brightness, while the raw jalapeños brought the right amount of heat. The egg rolls were also a hit, with a peppery flavor and a crisp outer shell.

Note that this is a grab-and-go spot with a strictly business vibe. The service is efficient, so have your order ready. There is only one small table for snacking and two benches for waiting. They also offer extensive party tray options if you order in advance.

There is plenty of free parking, though the lot gets competitive on weekends due to the nearby Aldi and Lucky Seafood Market.“

“Cute little restaurant, nice little decor, clean,ambiance with music, they have a really well taken care of money tree too!
I had the Pork Belly Bahn Mi sandwhich which came nicely wrapped to keep the heat in as I had my appetizers, the fresh Shrimp spring rolls, if you know this cuisine it’s the clear wrapper not the fried ones. Literally freshly made and delicious, their peanut sauce on the thinner side but very flavorful, no peanuts. Honestly I haven’t had one that good in a good while.
Oof as soon as you bite the Bahn-mi you get this delectable crunch and the aromas of the sandwich right away. So much flavor in just the first bite.
Great choice for an early lunch as I have more errands to run, food came out expediently. I’m stationed on base and will definitely come back for lunch“

“Pho Cow Cali Express is located in Mira Mesa just a few blocks west of the 15 freeway on Mira Mesa Blvd. I’ve been here numerous times purely for nostalgia and because my family likes it here.

Sometimes you’ll see a line out the door so you’ll need to sign in. The wait time is typically quick unless you have a huge party.

My order usually consists of their Grilled BBQ Pork Vermicelli (Bun Thit Nuong) and their Egg Rolls (Cha Gio).

This restaurant has plenty of seats and the ambiance is very casual. There are TVs around and it’s mid-noisy inside.

The service is pretty quick given that the menu isn’t as large as other Vietnamese restaurants. There’s prices are also decent and competitive for the area. The servers are really just there to take orders, bring out orders, etc. - very casual dining.

One thing to note: The aroma will stick to your skin, hair, and clothing! And it’s pretty intense. It should definitely be your last stop of the day. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Overall, Pho Cow Cali dishes out simple Vietnamese food, where the service is quick and dining is casual.“

“I come here once a week from El Cajon Ca. to buy the keto vietnamese iced coffee. It's so delicious and made perfect every time. Staff is very friendly and polite.
I just wish they would sell keto chocolate chip cookies☺“

“The pho was hands-down some of the best I’ve ever had—rich, aromatic broth that was perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. The beef was tender and flavorful, and the noodles were cooked to perfection, soaking up all that deliciousness.“

“Great food and beautiful outdoor seating.“

“I came for lunch, we were seated quickly and we got the food really fast after we ordered. The staff were friendly and attentive too :)
We both got pho and it was delicious, the broth was flavorful and the noodles were nice too.

At other places I've had bland broth and noodles that are stuck together but that wasn't the case here :)

10/10 recommend! <3“

“Tofu fresh spring rolls are delicious! Also the pho is very tasty.“

“Good food & service. Robot caddy that delivers food to table was fun to watch 😋“

“I come here almost daily because I am obsessed with their match Tres leches with matcha boba and egg pudding. It's a combination that lives in my taste buds memory. like the marriage between a matcha frappe with flan. At the family table came boba and a snow cap that easily translates to tantalizing flavors jumping for joy! Then the Bahn mi is packed with the perfect ratio of meat, picked carrots, cucumber, and JALAPEÑOS!!! I love a jalapeño that delivers and these always hit the mark. The fact that the ingredients are fresh and natural are major brownie points.“

“Fried garlic pork with steamed rice 😍“

“So delicious!
We are visiting from Michigan and stoped in for pho. The owners were so nice and welcoming. Helped us order, beyond accommodating to the kids. My husband order ed BBQ Pork with rice and ate the entire plate clean before I could even get a picture. He keeps saying, “I could eat that every day.”
Supporting local is always the best, and this spot is absolutely worth visiting!“

“staff was warm and welcoming as we walked in. Super fast service, 3 different staff check on us to see if we needed anything. food came out in correct order, fresh, and hot! was a nice time. They even said thank you and goodbye on the way out which was nice. first time my hubby and I ate here, we will be back 😋“
