31 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Santa Monica

“So fresh, clean, and fulfilling! The food here is great, you can really taste the quality... but it’s definitely on the overpriced side.

The space is a bit small, but the wait times were short (10 minutes), so it wasn’t an issue.

The staff were super lovely, with such happy, welcoming energy that made the whole atmosphere feel really good.“

“Officially one of my favorite spots in LA! Everything about this place is PERFECTION.

Stumbled upon this and am so glad we went in!

Photos of almost everything we ordered. Definitely great portions to share and enjoy for appetizers. It was my first time having a Vietnamese crepe and I’m so happy I had it here! Spring rolls always slap so you knowwww that had to happen!

The pho. I can’t even begin to explain and let you understand the flavorsssss. Wow. Please go and enjoy.“

“I’ve had pho in about 6 different states. This was the best I’ve ever had! Bravo! You guys deserve it! Thanks for letting us visit! 🍲“

“Good, rich pho, friendly staff. Delicious sandwich, but the atmosphere leaves much to be desired. With the door open, flies were flying around the room, and some landed on the cheesecake several times. There's also a sign on the wall that every menu item is a dollar more expensive. I think they could have simply changed the prices for that kind of money.“

“Phorage on Overland in Los Angeles is a great spot for a relaxed meal with a fresh take on Vietnamese cuisine. The menu has a cool mix of traditional and modern dishes that are both tasty and unique. The Pho Birria is absolutely incredible. 10/10“

“Cute pho spot! Delicious food w great service! Their sweatshirt are dope too!“

“Food is superb, as is there fresh limeade.“

“Good food. Good service! Clean place.“

“THE BEST PHO 🍜 ever. I travel the country and I’m a good snob. This is home cooking, unique…and absolutely delicious. Please treat yourself and go!“

“Nong La has a dedicated Canto Viet man diligently directing the back of the house day in and day out, making sure the food hits their level of comfortable consistent cuisine, which won’t exactly blow minds or taste buds, but fills an exotic unfamiliar question mark into a manageable modern meal. But there’s this really Skinny Canto Viet lady bossing a bunch of diverse ppl around… she’s kinda scary at times and fiery at times… I suspect Nong La (Nong La means Burning) was named after the hot heat came from her own… hot… …..!😉🤓🔥🥵)“

“Very tasty sandwiches!! Great Vietnamese flavor!!!!“

“Fantastic food. We had the DineLA menu and a great introduction to their food. Awesome service. Love the interior. Will be back again“

“We started with spring rolls (the crispy rolls were highly recommended) and won tons. Entrées were crab noodle and sweet and sour duck, but they brought us a katsu-type chicken with rice, let us keep the mistake, and we had coffee crème brûlée for desert. The fried food was tasty, but a little heavy, good portion size and wonderful flavor (for the prices). Only drank water, but every part of the menu was well attended, not to mention the house and service, and although our area of the room was a little dark, it was good ambience.“

“Banh Mi branches at SM Davao and Lanang superb! Great customer service. Def my new favorite eats. Love their drinks too.“

“Ordered: Pho Combination, Bahn MI Charbroiled Pork, and Thai Iced Tea
Price: $17.90 + $11.90 + $4.49
Ordered for pickup twice now through their website, same order and it was very easy, with an included timer. If they aren't busy, food was ready under 15 minutes, but when they are, it took about 45 minutes for the pick up.
Broth was refreshing, meat was tender, noodles were chewy and plentiful. Thai Tea was also refreshing. Ate the ban mi later in the day, and it was still delicious, with the fun flavors of the smokey sweet pork and the spicy jalapeños. Overall, found my go-to pho place here in the Culver area“

“beef Pho is excellent. chow fun us also very good“

“They have both inside and outside seating areas. Service is great.“

“buen ambiente, deliciosos platillos“

“Not the biggest fan of how they charge for all the extra sides you’d typically get for free when ordering pho at any other restaurant, but still enjoyed my meal. They serve large bowls, although it’s a bit extra broth for its contents. The beef rolls are a yummy appetizer and the brisket is tasty. Service is fine, they do automatically add 18% minimum service charge to small parties and more for larger parties.“

“Tastes great! Excellent service and very clean restaurant.“

“I have been eating at this restaurant for the last 5 years and I absolutely love the yellow chicken curry. It's actually the only thing I've ever gotten and I've gotten it over 60 times. I just tried the pad Thai chicken noodles last night for the first time and although it tasted really great, I noticed my heart was racing a little bit after I ate it which only happens when I consume MSG. I seem to be the only one in my family that is sensitive to MSG, but I definitely feel it. There's been many studies about how MSG is not very healthy for most people so I'm leaving this comment in hopes that pad Thai on Beverly follows what many other restaurants are doing and removes MSG as an ingredient in certain dishes. Luckily, they do not use MSG in the yellow chicken curry. Again, this is a really amazing restaurant.“

“Love eating here! Friendly service and delicious food! They have lots of options .“

“Great place for takeout or dining in. Nothing fancy. Just good old Vietnamese food and plentiful portions.“

“Enjoyed a wonderful breakfast at Toast Cafe❤️ Smoked salmon avocado toast and fresh berry toast were amazing. Quiet cozy cafe with great food. Highly recommend!e“

“Reviews are mixed, but my experience was alright and Id give 3.8/5. The pho broth is on the sweeter side and had a lot of flavor, which I liked. The egg rolls were probably precooked or sitting under a heat lamp since it came out literally a minute after ordering. The noodles in the pho were pre-cooked and one big clump, but I was able to give it a few stirs, and it was good to go.

Overall atmosphere is dated. It's old style mom and pop. There was a worker in there playing a game or watching a drama on his phone with the speaker at max volume, so it was so distracting and annoying. Very rude to customers trying to dine.

Service was good. Orders taken promptly, and the grandma came over to check up and refill waters.“

“Good location to meet up with friends. Spacious and good food“

“A very authentic Vietnamese restaurant with rich dishes and great taste. It is worth recommending“

“We had chicken wontons, vegan pho and chicken pho. My husband fell in love with chicken wontons and that’s why we visited phorage multiple times after our first visit. Both the vegan and the chicken pho were very flavorful. The staff was very kind and we had a great time at the weho location.“

“The closest to sitting at a beach front restaurant on Koh Lipe I have had. DELICIOUS“
