Pho King is the BEST in San Diego! We live in Escondido now and like coming to Pho King. The broth is always clean, smells, and taste delicious. My favorites is the Spring Roll. Love the taro smoothies is very natural. The coffee is strong. Service is always attentive and welcoming.
Very good food. Banh hoi chao tom is very good. Hu tieu is very good. Services are ok, parking might be hard to find during peak hours.

One of my favorite pho restaurants in San Diego. Highly recommend! Everything I've had there has been delicious, and the staff is nice.
Authentic Vietnamese food, served by Vietnamese in San Diego's own Little Saigon.

How do you say terrible in Vietnamese? Caca? Is the worst Asian restaurant I've eaten in in years. The service was terrible. The food was mediocre. I will never return. If you want to waste your money, visit this restaurant. If you want good food, find another place

Come for the epic hu tieu my tho kho, not for the ambiance or vibe. This place has the best Vietnamese glass noodle bowls hands down… I’ve tried so many places in SoCal and I keep coming back here to pho King in San Diego’s little Saigon . If you know this dish, you know why it’s so special: the chewy glass noodles, the bbq pork slices, the stewed tomato pork broth you pour over the noodles, the fresh celery and fried shallots and little pork rind crumbles that top the dish… damn it is so darn tasty. It’s been run by the same family for ages and they have mastered this dish. Pro tip: Always get broth on the side (dry noodles) and just use the tomato pork bowl to moisten your noodle bowls. I dream of this place in LA because I haven’t found anything close to the flavor of Pho King’s hu tieu my tho Kho with the glass noodles.
It’s number 28, thank me later! :)

I'm not super familiar with Vietnamese cuisine, but I popped in here to help remedy that. The tongue in cheek name made it seem just a tad friendlier than other places in Little Saigon. I saw pork spring rolls on the menu, and I know I like those, so that's what I got. The gentleman who served me made sure I knew I'd have to assemble them myself, then instructed me how to do so. Mine weren't very pretty but I got the hang of it. Very friendly and kind, the spring rolls were so fresh, tasty, and healthy. I really enjoyed the authentic atmosphere, with Vietnamese TV on, showing cuisine and music and neat stuff like that. I'd love to come back sometime.

I've been to a few pho spots in Little Saigon and this one has my favorite broth by far. The depth of flavor is amazing- I crave it weekly! Friendly service as well, which is a plus. I've been a few times now and never been disappointed.

Pho is so so. Just basic taste. Meat not fresh and tasty. Broth not great. I grew up on pho. Thought CA had good pho everywhere. Wife and I disappointed.

Some of the best pho I've ever had, and I've had a lot in a lot of places. The broth has phenomenal depth of flavor without being heavy or overbearing. The meats are top quality. Their to-go packaging is honestly some of the best I've seen as well. Do yourself a favor and check this place out!
