40 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near San Pedro

“Small place on 23rd and Pacific in San Pedro. Normally this kind of place you drive by. But do yourself a favor they're open for lunch and dinner only and got to stop and eat because you keep coming back.I've been eating there for 35 years. The owner is the chef right there in front of you. Snow does all her own prep work. Her son is the waiter and handles the counter and register. Pretty much a two-person show. They have an appetizer called Imperial Rolls, Almost every person that comes in orders this appetizer. Can't explain it it's just fantastic. It's like an egg roll that you wrap in lettuce and cucumber cilantro and mint dip it in a fish sauce, and when you bite down on it, you get a hot Crunchyroll wrapped with lettuce and the cucumber and herbs inside. Plan flat just good. There dinner dishes are put together with chicken or pork or beef or shrimp. You put these dishes together with different sauces and Seasonings, with some rice, noodles, fried noodles and vegetables. Hot dishes, curry dishes, fried rice and daily specials. If you like this style of food you'll love this place.“

“Always busy cause the foods are so good here. One thing to mention is that they cook Pho without MSG, so you don’t wait up and feel thirsty. I like the vibe of people here, outside tables, friendly service.
Broth is not rich but refined and I like it.“

“ABSOLUTELY LOVE the fact that I can choose what size pho I want. Small was plenty, great price, a bit over $10 so I got a Vietnamese coffee as well! Being able to finish it all by myself and not wasting any made this my number 1 go to pho spot. Delicious too! Will be back for sure whenever the craving strikes!“

“The best bánh mì and coffee in the world. I recommend it!👏💥❤️“

“Love this place customer service is great,food is great and not that pricey!I truly would recommend :)“

“Pho Hue Oi is a straight up hidden gem in Torrance and I am OBSESSED. Family owned, incredibly warm, and the service is next level — the kind where you feel like you’re eating at someone’s house and they actually want you there.

The food? Let me get into it. Their Lomo Saltado hits different because they put a Vietnamese spin on it and somehow it works even better than the original. Bold, saucy, wok-fired perfection.

Now. Mom’s rice cake dish — I cannot pronounce it but I CAN tell you exactly what’s in it: shrimp, crunchy pork rinds, finished with fish sauce and Thai chilies. It sounds simple. It is NOT simple. It is layered, funky, crispy, savory and I was not prepared for how good it was. That dish alone earns all five stars.

No alcohol here but their Thai tea is genuinely elite. Thick, creamy, cold — does the job beautifully.

If you haven’t been to Pho Hue Oi yet, what are you even doing? Go. Bring people. Order everything.“

“I came here with my friend and we accidentally ordered to go instead of dine-in, but the server brought us bowls with hot broth and was very nice! We ordered the wontons, brisket pho, and fried rice and everything was delicious :) Plenty of seating and friendly service.“

“Authentic food, great service and definitely recommended.

They also have a decent list of items on their vegetarian section of the menu - mostly Tofu for the protein option in vegetarian but the taste is still retained be it the rice, noodles or the bunmi.

Our server was very friendly but alert to all our requests.“

“This Vietnamese spot quietly sits inside a bland strip mall but surprises in every bite. The pho was rich and fragrant, and their pho‑French‑dip banh mi served on Persian bread was unforgettable. I appreciated how inventive yet respectful their flavor combinations stayed. Seating is minimal, but the staff are attentive and efficient. It’s precisely the sort of hidden gem locals appreciate—not glossy, just excellent food“

“Everything was 10 stars!! Pho is the best I’ve had in South Bay to date and I’ve eaten at many!! Best best best beef tallow fries ever!! No nasty crappy oils used! And the pho is made with BONE BROTH!! The fried brisket rice….no words absolutely delish!!! Prices are really good! This is my new go to for fries and Pho and fried rice!! Service was on point and the owner came out to greet us too! 10 out of 10!!“

“Local Favorite. Excellent Customer Service and Delicious Food. Fast turn around. Owner ran / present. *completely different experience from Pho Hana on Hawthorne (Torrance) All staff are helpful, polite and friendly. Highly recommend. My pho craving was satisfied without having to drive all the way out to Gardena / Westminster.“

“Good food good helpings recommend the orange chicken nice and tasty you get plenty of white rice also careful when you order by size when you order large you get a bit much but not complaining at all. Give this place a try it's not roomy so best to take it to go or have it delivered for a more comfortable eat.“

“Got the lemon June drink and the truffle fried rice to go and both were really delicious. The rice Had pork and sausage in it and came with great side of in house soy sauce on the side as well as utensils and the lemon June drink had peach purée and it was super refreshing, a bit in the pricey side for everything but it was all super good so I’d definitely come back and try more, inside was fairly small but the decor was super nice and service was good and on point so I’d definitely recommend this spot“

“Best Vietnamese restaurant in Torrance“

“In town for a conference and stopped in for some pho. Absolutely delicious and a friendly staff. Highly recommend.“

“One of the cashier's ripped offa borderline homeless person.“

“This Vietnamese restaurant right across from our workshop has truly become our favorite lunch spot. My team and I eat here almost every day, and it’s honestly one of the best and most reliable places to grab a meal in the area. When you work long hours like we do, having a great restaurant nearby makes a huge difference, and this place never disappoints.

The food is always fresh, hot, and full of authentic flavor. Their pho is absolutely amazing — a huge bowl with rich, aromatic broth, tender meat, and plenty of noodles. You can really taste the quality and care in every bite. We’ve also tried the spring rolls, fried rice, vermicelli bowls, grilled chicken, beef, and different noodle dishes, and everything has been consistently delicious and well-prepared.

The portion sizes are very generous. Seriously, the plates are BIG. Sometimes one order is enough for two people. You definitely get more than what you pay for, which is rare these days. The prices are very affordable, especially considering the quality and quantity of food.

The staff is always friendly, polite, and welcoming. Service is fast, which is perfect for our busy work schedule. The atmosphere is clean, relaxed, and comfortable, making it a great place to sit down and enjoy a proper meal.

I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone nearby. If you want tasty, filling, and reasonably priced Vietnamese food, this is the place to go. We’ll definitely keep coming back again and again!“

“The food is good but it is not worth the price. I got the pho combination which was 16 dollars. I would not mind the price but they are stingy with the meat. I would not bother coming back when there are so many other options that are worth the price of admission.“

“A hidden gem!

I ate here yesterday with my girlfriend and we got the beef noddle soup, fried fish, frog legs, and fish amok. It was all delicious! It was our first time having Cambodian food and it did not disappoint.

I'm usually picky about the asian food I like. Most asian places here in America really aren't that good but I really liked this place. I definitely recommend!“

“I always enjoy having an extra large no 1 which is a large bowl but with extra everything by a half portion more of extra and there egg rolls are good not too dry or oily and the spam rolls are good enough not to have soy sauce with them and there not dry but just right there pho is traditional and extremely good enough not needed to add anything extra sauce to it if you do only add a little bit but I come here every once every week so and the parking in good just only one handicapped spot but all the spaces or most of them are near the door. You will enjoy having pho here as much as I do and they can modify each dish to how you like it as well.“

“Very nice restaurant, very close to beautiful Redondo Beach. Such a cute decorations with great Asian fusion food“

“buen ambiente, deliciosos platillos“

“I was so hungry and stopped by this place to have some lunch. The place looks simple but the quality of food is just amazing! I didn’t expect that a regular Pho chicken soup would be that good and delicious! OMG, it was sooo yummy! The personal of this place is very kind and friendly, I felt truly at home here)“

“Food was amazing. One of the best vietnamese restaurants that I love to visit. Highly recommended.“

“Amazing vegan menu. 💕 definitely worth a visit. Will stop in next time we are in town.“

“My first time here because I just so happened to be in the area. I had the brisket & tendon phó. It was delicious. It had so much tendon and I loved it. Great flavor and freshness. I read some of the reviews that were negative. My experience was nothing but positive. I like to eat at mom and pop restaurants. The service was polite and attentive. Give this establishment a try. I think you’ll find it a tasty and positive experience.“

“3 proteins PHO.. bone broth yummy 😋. Thai tea fresh. All was made to order. Meats are so fresh that I could swear they came right off the cow. The outdoor seating area I totally recommend for a nice relaxing lunch dinner time the fire is lit“

“We’ve always come to this place, we just live around the area. The food is good, the service is good💁‍♀️💜👍“

“Ordered through DoorDash. This chicken pho was exactly what I needed when I wasn't feeling well. The addition of the bean sprouts, Thai basil and lime was perfect. The only thing I didn’t care for was the chicken because it was incredibly dry. The brisket was better than the chicken.“

“This is one of the best restaurants in Carson. So far I've been there three times and every single time. It's amazing thank you for being who you guys are great customer service. What a smile nowadays. You don't get that anywhere“

“If there’s one place known for Vietnamese coffee, it’s this one. That sweet, creamy, ice-cold brew will keep you wired longer than any energy drink. It’s strong, but in the best way. Don’t even bother asking for less ice because the drink is meant to be diluted. Without it, the coffee is way too concentrated (even their bottled version at Costco says to mix it with ice or water!).

As for the food, their banh mi are always solid. Fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Prices have crept up over the years, but that’s pretty much everywhere now. Still worth the visit.“

“Good food good music and easy parking“

“Came in and got the bbq pulled pork sandwich which was pretty good, bread was a bit hard but it wasn’t bad or the best, but the wings were definitely a hit! Super juicy tender and crispy probably better than most chicken wing spots and the spring roll was trash it had no flavor at all and neither did the sauce that came with it so most likely not coming back“

“I LOVE this place! The food is authentic and delicious. I'm in Long Beach about once a year and I make sure to make time to go to this place. I always have the Pho. The broth is legit!
The people that work there are very nice and keep it super clean. If I lived closer, I'd be there a couple times a week...“

“Really good Cambodian sandwiches for very reasonable prices. They're filled with tons of veggies and have the right balance of sweet and sour with the pickles. Will absolutely come back again. Spring rolls were not so special but that's not what this place predominantly sells.Not ironically, the staff informed me that sandwich #1("combo") is the most popular and #2("meatloaf pork") is the next. Glad I took their advice.“

“We ordered chicken pho and egg rolls on DoorDash. We weren’t expecting to love it so much! Every place we get chicken pho from, inevitably the chicken is dry, but not Bamboo Song! The broth was amazing and the chicken was the best I’ve ever had in pho. If it was that good for a delivery order, I can only assume that it’s even better in restaurant. I’ll definitely be frequenting this place again!“

“I enjoy coming to Hiccups for lunch and even dinner at times. Me and my family (3) visited this Sunday, March 15. The garlic pasta noodles is one of my favorites and the chamoy mango slushy. The friendliness of the staff could be more vibrant but the overall experience was still good.

Our food came out in a decent manner, and it was hot and fresh. I ordered (10 pc) Cajun wings, garlic noodles, pineapple shrimp fried rice (for myself), beef pad Thai & chamoy mango slushy (for my man), and chicken bites & fries and a sprite (for my son). I also placed a separate order to go for (my mother), chicken bites with fried rice.

I was a little disappointed they changed some things on the menu but still my favorite place to get a chamoy mango slushy. We had so much food leftover we had dinner for later.“

“The best iced latte in town...heavy espresso picker upper...delicious! And those super fresh $1.50 baguettes,ready every 30 minutes can't be beat!!“

“I go to the Lee's on Anaheim and the owner/manager is sOO nice and when you go on a regular basis she'll reward you! I like that. She's super pleasent and sweet!“

“Lee's Sandwiches Banh Mi is very good and they have multiple locations in the Los Angeles area. The baguette is fresh and a combination of meats and pickled vegetables.

The Vietnamese Iced Coffee is an excellent pick-me-up. Great Combo of sweet and strong.

The young man working the front was very friendly and respectful. Although he had a toothpick in his mouth while taking my order. Not a good look, it's unprofessional.“
