43 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Torrance

“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.“

“Ooh, I love this place. LOVE. The first time my husband and I went here we ordered chicken pho and chicken fried rice. It was sooo good the following day I craved it and ordered again the same thing for to go 😆😍🥰🤤 2 or 3 days later my husband and I went back and ordered beef pho and spring rolls, but you just keep coming back for the pho! 🍜❤️“

“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.“

“Highly recommend the shaken beef with garlic noodles. DEE.LI.CIOUS!!!
Beef was tender and slightly caramelized, so the flavor is sealed in. The garlic noodles had just enough garlic and were perfectly cooked and seasoned. Definitely enough to share.
I tried the lychee green tea with lychee bits and it was so refreshing! Will definitely be back to try their gelato since I was too full this time to get any.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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! 🍲“

“Gardena’s best-kept secret!
I tried the satay shrimp for the first time after a regular suggested it to me. Omg it was so good! Seriously, I might be hooked.

It's also worth mentioning that the egg rolls are a must every single time. ALWAYS Hot, crispy, and delicious!!!

The veggies they bring out with the pho are always fresh and crisp and the perfect portions. It's the ultimate comfort food on any day!!!

I brought three friends with me this time, and they all loved their food. Every time I come, I bring somebody who has never been, and they always want to come back. The food and service are always excellent. We will definitely be back!“

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

“I love pho and found this place by accident. I came around 7:30pm and it wasn't really super busy, which was great for me! I felt like I had the restaurant all to myself! My portions were great and the price was awesome, too! Our servers were so pleasant also!
I will definitely come back!“

“We came here for lunch. We had cha gio, pho ga and com tam dac biet.

We were welcomed with a smile and I think the proprietoress took our order. She was so nice. Our food came out quickly.

During our meal we saw her talk to all the customers sitting. And all the customers who came in for pick up. It seems this is a favorite neighborhood spot. Everyone loved her and she in turn loved them back. It made the atmosphere so cheerful.

She talked to us and she smiled and laughed. I would come back just to speak to her and eat cheap, great food.

Note: cash only“

“Wonderful location. I always feel so welcomed and appreciated every time I enter. They always take good care of me and my bf always really sweet and caring. The food is always fresh and made to perfection. I’ve been here numerous of times and will always chose to go here all thanks to the amazing staff.“

“Pho Daisy is one of the BEST I've had. Alot of places broth taste watered down but Pho Daisy's broth was seasoned, the vermicelli noddles were not glass noodles, the fried egg rolls were delicious and the customer service was on point. I will be coming back to Pho Daisy.“

“Update: I used to love and recommend this place but idk whats going on and its sad, the broth which is the main point is always 50/50 now. When its good its really good but when they miss sometimes its flavorless or super sweet as opposed to originally packed with flavor and all around balanced on bone flavor, spice herb packed, and sweet. Please follow old recipe or something. Still the pork spring rolls are a must have with the peanut sauce no matter what!“

“Redbo (Palos Verdes) is an absolute gem that completely elevates the local dining scene. If you are anywhere near PV, this spot is an absolute must-visit.
From the second you walk in, the service is warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever feeling rushed. The team clearly cares about the guest experience, offering thoughtful recommendations and ensuring every detail of the meal is seamless.

The food quality, however, is what will make you want to come back the very next night:
* The Broth: Deeply complex, rich, and unlike anything else in the area. It has a unique depth of flavor that speaks to hours of slow simmering and careful balancing of spices—pure comfort in a bowl.
* Australian Wagyu: Exceptionally tender, perfectly seared, and melt-in-your-mouth soft. The marbling infuses the rich broth with an incredible, decadent savory flavor.
* Fresh Ingredients: Everything feels intentional, from the perfectly cooked noodles to the crisp, fresh toppings that balance out the rich soup base.

Whether you're a local or visiting Palos Verdes, Redbo delivers a top-tier, memorable dining experience that punches far above its weight class. 5/5 stars without hesitation.“

“Lively and pleasant with a great sidewalk dining area. I tried the Pho and the broth was good, it's lighter and less herbal than my favorite Pho place but was satisfying. The basil and jalapenos were obviously very fresh and the presentation and service were quite good!“

“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.“

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

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

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

“Love this place. It’s my go to on the 405 when I drive from LA to Laguna Beach to see the family or to/from San Diego. It’s less than 2mins from the exit and the food is excellent, solid pho options and Chinese cuisine too, and the guys who run it, are lovely. I don’t live in Carson, CA but so glad I stopped and tried it out… It will be my food stop so many times more in the future when I make the drive down and back.“

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

“đã có tại VN từ năm 1960 tại số 494 minh mạng (ngã sáu chợ lớn) phở truyền thống gia đinh“

“Wish we had this amazing cafe back home. The menu? There were so many appetizing choices, it was hard to choose! 😊The food is super yummy and the people who run it are so sweet!“

“Pho PCH is a fantastic spot for delicious Vietnamese food! The pho is flavorful, aromatic, and comforting, with fresh ingredients and satisfying portions. The menu has plenty of tasty options, and the friendly service makes the experience even better. It’s a great place for a casual and satisfying meal in Redondo Beach. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving a warm, flavorful bowl of pho!“

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

“Friendly, great customer service. Food is delicious 😋“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“WOAH. Best banh mi I ever had. They put them on freshly made baguettes that they make (so it’s fresh and crisp)! The chicken and veggies were so perfectly fresh and delicious! Filling and you don’t feel like you ate a heavy sandwich—this the place. The biscoff latte, also the shit. While waiting for my order also got to buy my Asian chili sauce for my house that most Asian restaurants have (if you are a frequent buyer of this, was also a nice convenience!)
It’s right in front of Tesla chargers so also can be most efficient charge/snack ever.
Don’t hesitate!!!!! Get this!

My photo sucks, but trust me, it was fire“

“This location can be a little confusing as it is next to a church, but they have a parking lot in back. They also have two dosages, one is like a lounge and the other is the actual restaurant
The service is wonderful and I even received a hug from the owner.
I had thecombo pho with brisket, beg round and tendon. It was so delicious. The broth was clean and not oily. A nice large bowl, almost overflowing. A really nice plate of veggies, including culantro.

My brother had the chicken porridge. It too came in a large bowl with a nice plate of veggies too.

Upon sitting you're served a nice large cup of iced jasmine tea. I also ordered the iced coffee with sweetened condensed milk. Delicious!
We are definitely returning.“

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

“I ordered the garlic noddle with beef and it was delicious, and my partner got one of their bowls and enjoyed their food too. We ordered take out both times, but I was back for more a week later. The portion sizes are big, I made 2 meals from my noddles and it tasted even better day two. I have not ate inside the restaurant but it looks clean, bright, and even offers outdoor dining. It is shared with another restaurant that serves açaís bowls, I believe, which only opens up the variety of food you can get.“

“I Love this place so much!! i love it so much bc one once i came the seen to always remember me and my orders no matter how much i visit and frequent there food is amazing there kind polite and the Pho is amazing they bani mi is even better ! come here !! to eat bomb food and fast service to top it off gives at home vibes! and great casual music“

“THIS FOOD IS AWESOME!!!!“

“buen ambiente, deliciosos platillos“

“Cute little place and staff was very nice. My chicken pho was good but lacked the consummé depth of a traditional pho --- chicken bouillon isnt it, fam. Noodles were good and Salad Rolls were okay... Good option but ive definitely had better, especially in Southern California.“

“My family come from NewYork and we order pho combo and bun bo hue. It is 10/10. The owner dropped by to greet us and also ask how is the food. My sister was not feeling well so I ask the owner to buy a slice of ginger. He came back with the whole ginger and gave to me with no charge. I am so grateful. Thank you very much.“

“Went on a Sunday around 6pm. Street parking in front, lot parking in back.
Tried the Pad Thai with chicken and shrimp and the wings, Mango Habanero and Lemon Pepper. Got a Thai Milk Tea and House Coffee with Ube foam. Food was good, drinks were amazing!! Seating was a bit uncomfortable. Utensils, napkins at the tables is convenient. Fair pricing.
Hosts were friendly, wait staff was rushed. It was a good experience.“

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