The restaurant has a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and plenty of parking. Everything feels clean, welcoming, and well taken care of.

“Good food, good price and friendly servers. Family own. Recommend this restaurant when you want to have noodles soup for your meal.“

“Came for dinner. Very friendly mom and pop place. We were greeted as soon as we stepped in. Before our orders came out staff brought out an appetizer/dessert that was complimentary. It was a tofu pudding dessert that was lightly sweetened and perfect as a light snack. Had Bun Bo Hue with beef bone. There were lots of meat in our soup bowl. All the meats were tender and delicious. The broth was seasoned well. Good place to go for Hue style noodle soup. When we finished and left we were waved very friendly goodbye. Makes the meal more enjoyable.“

“Tôi đã đến ăn 2 lần Ngon“

“This place is really amazing! Great food and hours for us "Night Owls" who eat late..... The pork and shrimp bowls are very filling and tasty and the Garlic Noodles and Crawfish Pasta are great! The marinated grilled pork Ban Mi sandwich is also a favorite. Interesting assortment of cold tea drinks as well. Oops, almost forgot the addictive, crispy egg rolls and Bai buns - a MUST try! Super friendly staff and fast service!“

“Matthew Le we should go here when u come to Orange County, yummy food. Huynh server was wonderful“

“I’ve been on the search for a pho place that is clean, quick service & delicious pho! This location definitely exceeded my expectations, the broth was super savory and not greasy at all! The water was even filtered water, which is rare these days. Definitely will be coming back and supporting this small business.

The owner shared he changed locations and lost his clientele, so if you’re in the area and want to help a small business out, please come, you won’t be disappointed!“

“The Banh Xeo all the way.“

“Yum very yummy yum yum yum“

“lovely little place. Sugarcane juice was fabulous. I really wanted to leave a five star review but the soup smelled and tasted strange. I don't know if I didn't have the taste for it or something else. I dined in and the table was tiny. Otherwise, service was fine and the atmosphere was great.“

“Pho Asian Grill is an amazing place to enjoy authentic and flavorful Vietnamese cuisine 🍜✨ From the very first spoonful, you can tell their pho broth is made with real care and attention. It’s rich, aromatic, and perfectly balanced — not too salty, not too bland, just right 😋👌

The noodles taste fresh and have the perfect texture, while the meat is tender and cooked beautifully 🥩🔥 Every bowl feels comforting and satisfying. On top of that, the portion sizes are very generous, so you definitely leave feeling full and happy 🙌

If you’re craving a warm, hearty, and delicious meal, this spot is absolutely worth visiting. Great flavors, quality ingredients, and a satisfying experience all around! 🌟“

“Hard to find decent pho for under $15 these days, except here!!! (My combo small bowl was only $11.50!) The place is pretty basic, and nothing fancy about it. But if you just want good pho at an excellent price, this can't be beat. And while you're at it, grab their bahn mi sandwichea, too! They are buy 2 get 1 free!“

“Still the best place to get noodles. I have noticed that the menu has been condensed significantly and they don't have as much on the menu.“

“Salmon Many leading nutritionist consider salmon to be one the best foods you can eat. Thanks to an array of healthy nutrients along with a punch of protein, salmon is a fantastic food for anyone looking to eat healthier or lose weight. And thanks to its flavor and texture, you can cook salmon in endless ways. Salmon is famous for its omega-3 fatty acids. According to the Mayo Clinic, “Omega-3 fatty acids may decrease triglycerides, lower blood pressure, reduce blood clotting, decrease stroke and heart failure risk, reduce irregular heartbeats, and in children may improve learning ability.” But the benefits of eating salmon extend far beyond those omega-3 fatty acids. Salmon also provides bioactive peptides. These improve joint cartilage health, increase insulin effectiveness, and control the inflammation of the digestive tract. Luckily, salmon is delicious both hot and cold. It’s a perfect family meal that pairs well with other high nutrient foods like spinach and black beans. Plus you can use spices like mustard and ginger to make the meal all the more appealing. Lastly, salmon is delicious when served cold on salads. So whether you are eating your dinner in a restaurant or eating it at home, the leftover salmon will make for a healthy lunch the next day.“

“My meal here was totally delicious. I found the pho broth to be incredible and very nourishing.

There was a $3 charge on my card for tip but I had no issues with that.

If I am in the area again I will definitely be back to eat here again.“

“Been here twice and tried a number of dishes. The parking lot is a little sketch sometimes but the service is always great. They some specialty dishes that I don't see everywhere and I love they open early. Vietnamese breakfast, yes please. Every dish I've had taste a lot cleaner/healthier than the other places in OC. This used to be a coffee shop and they swapped to just restaurant because their food was being raved about. I'm a fan.“

“Discovered this new gem after taking my pup to the groomer and coffees are good. Their caramel machiatto and matcha are better than Starbucks. I like they also have Vietnamese coffee for extra jolt of caffeine. They sell conchas so its a one stop shop.“

“Good food, good drink. Staff is nice“

“This place is very nice in terms of the amount of tv's, tables, architecture and girls. I come to study, watch a game and/or order food since its in such nice plaza with lots of restaurants such as Tastea, KFC, Chipotle, McDonalds. Girls are very friendly and customer-service oriented too.“

“the best of the best , awesome food, beautiful employees, perfection“

“I’m a long time customer who had my younger sibling work for Cafe Lu in the past. I love the atmosphere and warmth in the air. After the remodel it’s so glamorous and upscale been loving the experience.“

“I’ve been coming here for years for their banh uot and banh cuon. So delicious and reasonably priced. It’s a take-out joint. They sell Vietnamese food trays for parties too but I’ve not ordered those before so I can’t speak on them.“
