50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near West Covina

“Very good food ! Very good food!“

“Great food! I've been here twice and have tried the fresh shrimp and tofu spring rolls with terrific accompanying sauce, flavorful chicken fried rice, shrimp pho with delicious broth, and the lovely Lychee fruit tea! Yum! Totally coming here again... and bringing more friends. Mangosteen has a clean, modern atmosphere, primarily indoors with a couple of outdoor tables. Friendly and helpful customer service.“

“First of all BEST Pho in town. OMG!!!customer service is awesome. Been coming here since they first opened. Will keep coming back for more Pho and other foods.“

“Finally, a restaurant quality Pho places! It’s super busy but we got in quickly and didn’t wait long at all. We ordered the Pho special and Bun Bo Hue with extra meat on the bone. It’s really good! The best pho restaurant we have had in San Jose area. Well worth the wait and the price is very reasonable. We also got the spring roll and it’s delicious. The staff’s frequently refilled our water and tips included in the meal which makes it a lot easier for me actually. Will definitely the go to a Pho restaurant in town.“

“Our servers were so nice! the pho soups were so fresh and steamy hot! My husband and I were very pleased“

“Been to this place three times, I always got food to go.
The first time I tried their Pho with flank and brisket. It was good, but I always prefer something that hits a little bit more.
Second time I decided to try the one with charbroiled beef and it was a game changer. I ordered it two days in a row cause it's absolutely delicious. The beef is very well marinated and tasted lightly sweet and smoky, I love to eat it even by itself.
I'll be coming back for sure.“

“Here’s a revised version of your review:

The broken rice at this Vietnamese restaurant is consistently good, but the chargrilled pork was a bit too thin. Overall, the experience was just okay—not great. However, it’s worth trying at least once.“

“I just tried out this amazing Vietnamese restaurant that serves the most delicious sandwiches and spring rolls. The sandwiches are just out of this world - And oh, the spring rolls! They are so fresh and tasty.

The atmosphere at the restaurant is so cozy and welcoming, and the staff is super friendly and attentive. I promise you won't be disappointed if you're a fan of Vietnamese cuisine.

I highly recommend checking this place out as soon as possible. It's become my go-to spot for a quick and satisfying meal that never fails to hit the spot. I guarantee you'll leave with a happy and full belly, already planning your next visit. Trust me, you won't regret it!“

“I saw the review from Lan Hoàng, and I have to speak up—because I was there that day, having lunch with my mom. And frankly, her version of the story is completely misleading.

She made a scene over the rice paper—complaining that 8 pieces for $2 was “too expensive” and demanding 12 pieces for $3. The prices were clearly printed on the menu. Then she loudly announced she could buy rice paper cheaper at the supermarket and bring it in herself. Seriously? That’s not how restaurants work.

Her voice was so loud that everyone nearby could hear her ranting, ruining the dining experience for others. The manager, to his credit, remained calm, professional, and stood his ground. He told her—rightfully so—that the price is $2 for 8 pieces, no exceptions.

Then she goes online and has the nerve to say the manager “lacks manners”? That’s laughable. If anyone was disrespectful, it was her. She should take a long, hard look in the mirror before she dares to judge someone else.

If I were the manager, I wouldn’t serve her again. Period. People like that come in with entitlement, create drama over one dollar, and then try to trash hardworking staff online when they don’t get their way. It’s not okay.

I will say this—the Bánh xèo was absolutely delicious. And that’s the only thing she got right.“

“Arrived at this Vietnamese restaurant at noon on Sunday, surprisingly found that there were not too many customers, the decoration inside the store was simple but clean. Tasted their Vietnamese beef noodles, I felt that the soup was very rich and sweet, and the bowl was very large, which was probably worthy of the price. Although the serving process was a bit problematic, for example, I ordered two bowls of the same beef noodles, but they were served separately after a period of time, which was not ideal, but the waiter's attitude was quite thoughtful, which can add some points.“

““The bomb.com” Pico Rivera has needed a good Pho restaurant for a long time now. I tried this place the other day for the first time and it was just right. Had a sore throat due to this shitty December weather and it was very delicious and soothing. Little pricey but the quality is worth the price.“

“Taste good and portion large“

“Our first time ever Trying the Vietnamese food! One word ; THE BEST!!“

“Great food. Love their Banh Mi and Spring Rolls.“

“Closed to home 25 miles but better than go to Santa Ana 45 miles. Food taste 3.9 Cleanness 4 Atmosphere 3.9 Huge place, clean and perfect bathroom“

“A certified Diamond Bar classic. Everything is solid here, from the pho, to the rice plates and appetizers. The pricing is reasonable (expect to spend in the low 10's per person) and portions are good sized. They have two TV's in the case you wanted to catch a basketball game or football game as you eat. Would recommend if you're in the area, but would not be a place you drive out for.“

“Went to this Vietnamese with a friend. Had the #23 chef special noodle soup bowl and the #30C Banh Mi sandwich. Also we had the #5 spring rolls. The food came out fast. Ordered the noodle soup mild spicy level. Still a bit spicy but delicious! The beef sandwich was very tasty too!“

“the food is always very flavorful“

“Visiting a friend and he was under the weather and was craving Pho. He recommended Pho Hai in El Monte.

The broth is rich, flavorful and authentic. Portions are generous—perfect for a hearty meal. Walked away feeling much better. Family-owned and operated. Service was warm and attentive. Please support small business.“

“This family-owned business usually never disappoints. We love the veggie pho because the broth is vegetable based, not chicken stock. The vegetables are always cooked to perfection and the portions are decent. On our last dining experience, we ordered the vegetable dumplings which came out very quickly. At first bite, I realized they were not vegetable but some kind of meat. While the place was busy, we couldn't find anyone to flag down fast enough before they delivered the correct order because the first one was chicken dumplings. Other than that, it's a good place for yummy food at good prices.“

“You really can't make a bad choice with any dish you select here. We tried the House Special, and the spring rolls are absolutely essential. My son is a big fan of the Ban Mi with grilled pork, and we also enjoyed the charbroiled pork vermicelli with egg rolls. Every dish was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. We will definitely be back for more. Plus, the best part is that they offer a discount when you pay in cash!“

“Free house special tea, choices of hot or ice cold. Yummy duck with refresh salad under neath it. First time to taste fried shredded banana flower on the side of the salad.
Super friendly waitress and waiter

Parking: Limited space but street parking is available“

“Picked this restaurant somewhat at random, not being familiar with the area, but very glad we did! Great food, one of our party had beef pho with ribeye and fish balls, and commented that it was super flavorful, my husband devoured the combo rice plate and raved about the beef sausage, and my shrimp fried rice was excellent, with big, perfectly cooked shrimp. And the best bit..... We have leftovers because the portions were HUGE! (Oh, and the passion fruit lemonade... So good!)
Really glad we stopped here, and definitely recommend!“

“這餐廳很好吃風格很好“

““On a wonderful weekend day, my family and I went to MIỀN TÂY restaurant. We really liked this place; it was clean and spacious, with friendly and attentive service. The food was delicious, and we will definitely come back again soon.”“

“It’s really good and the rolls are my favorites“

“I’ve been to this place many times and it always hits the spot. One of my favorite things to get here is the shaken beef (photo included). It’s very yummy and tastes like it’s made with lots of love which makes the meal taste even better! Service is amazing which makes this restaurant top tier.“

“When I first arrived to this restaurant, I didn’t see any other diners and was quite hesitant. But soon enough they proved my ‘pre-thoughts’ wrong.
Definitely one of the best Vietnamese home cooked meals at a restaurant in the area. The flavour is so authentic that can transport you back to the Southern of Vietnam (mien Tay) in a bite. We ordered the lunch set for family and cannot fault a thing. It came with canh chua, ca chien, goi tom thit, ca kho, bap cai chua. Flavour was mouth watering and all very good value for money. This is such a hidden gem. Highly recommend!“

“They have really good vegetarian banh mi’s! It’s a bit far from where I live but I’m so glad to have tried it! Will be back again!

Also their Vietnamese iced coffee is really strong and good. My husband gave it the seal of approval. Thank goodness for this shop!“

“Recently opened its door in the Temple City, Kim Hoa Hue Restaurant is the new culinary destination for Vietnamese cuisine lovers. Having moved to Temple City, it stands proudly across from Summer Roll, inviting diners to embark on a gastronomic journey to Vietnam’s former imperial capital.

The restaurant’s specialty, Bun Bo Hue, is a testament to the authentic flavors of Huế. This Vietnamese beef noodle soup, known for its spicy and robust taste, is served in a generous portion brimming with succulent meat. The rich and aromatic broth leaves a lingering warmth that is both comforting and invigorating.

For those eager to explore the breadth of Huế’s culinary landscape, the Hue Combo is a must-try. This dish is a culinary mosaic, showcasing the region’s famous noodle-based delights. It’s an ideal choice for newcomers and connoisseurs alike, offering a sample platter of Huế’s pride.

While the Bun didn’t quite meet expectations, it holds promise. A tweak in noodle texture to achieve that coveted al dente bite, paired with a more traditional Vietnamese egg roll, could elevate this dish to new heights.

The Pho presents a soulful broth that sings with depth and clarity. However, the noodles yearn for a bit more finesse to match the soup’s excellence.

Service at Kim Hoa Hue is attentive and earnest, although a broader grasp of English would enhance the overall experience. For now, Google Translate bridges the communication gap, adding a touch of modernity to the dining experience.

The ambiance is as fresh as the flavors, with a bright and contemporary setting that promises growth and refinement. Kim Hoa Hue Restaurant is a welcome addition to the neighborhood, offering a slice of Huế’s regal cuisine with every dish. With a few culinary tweaks, this establishment is poised to become a cornerstone of the local food scene.“

“We enjoy hanging out. Yesterday we visited this excellent place which we didn’t know before. We enjoyed a beautiful experience there with very good meal and a well-trained stuff and an impressive chief cook. We put this fine restaurant in our phone list and we will certainly go again very soon. We deeply recommend.“

“My family and I visited the other day and we will definitely be returning. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was enjoyable the perfect place for a family. The owner and his son were the kindest people and you can tell they take pride in what they are serving. We will definitely be coming back!“

“It's a one man band, so it took awhile for us to get our food. You will need patience. But when it comes out, it was so worth it! Next time I'd try calling and order ahead, or order a takeout. There's a lot next door that has zero marking, but you can park there.“

“There food was great go get yourself some noodles“

“Awesome service, great fOOd, large TVs , nice portions- Wish they had delivery service ;)“

“It was my first time at Pho Hai in Walnut, and I was very impressed. I ordered the number one pho — it had a rich flavor, lots of fresh meat, and fresh herbs. Great balance and taste. Fast and friendly service. The large, convenient parking lot is a big bonus. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Amazing little spot that my wife and I visit consistently at least once a week. The pho is always on point & they never seem to have an off day. Ann is always extremely friendly and service oriented & always makes sure our experience is very pleasant. Like most have mentioned, the egg rolls are also on point. Go & support this hole in the wall spot!“

“after eating here, i'm starting to understand how LA/SGV works... you gotta pay for a big meal, sit down, 'n enjoy. It's not a hustle 'n bustle snack on-the-way city.

I expected to eat the self-serving vegetables 'n rice, but that seems to have a door of it's own for take-out..?? then I tried to order a sandwich, but they were out.. maybe out of bread..? then i gave in and ordered a big meal, a soup: combination with yellow noodle.

amazing. simple. jam packed with all sorts of tofu and mushrooms. It's enough for two people. And then the lady gave out little dessert cups, like a green mung bean soup, on a hot day. this is one of them joints.“

“me gustó la sopa y los apps“

“I’ve been coming to Pho Mai for over 10 years, and it never disappoints. The pho here is simply phenomenal — rich, flavorful broth and fresh ingredients every time. It’s my go-to spot for comfort food, and no matter what dish I try, it always hits the mark. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and over the years, they’ve even been teaching me how to order in Vietnamese! Now, I always order ‘Phở số 2, thêm thịt, tô lớn,’ which is the Number 2 with extra meat, large size. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a full meal, Pho Mai has a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes you feel at home. Highly recommend it for anyone craving authentic Vietnamese food!“

“Portions and servings were great for the price. We ordered two different rice plates and a noodle soup.

I don't eat pork, so the owner (or manager) offered me a beef soup instead. She said to keep hydrated. So thoughtful!

Inside is a typical Vietnamese place with old school decor. But everyone is very nice.“

“Tiny little mom and pop place in the Arden Plaza between Bank of America and Action Lanes bowling. The kind lady served me. Seems pretty clean and quiet. I'll update you on my food soon.

Update! Food is beautiful and delicious“

“I love this place. I'm so glad we found it. The broth in the pho is so flavorful. Had me go back twice in one weekend lol the man who i assume is the owner is such a sweetheart and always has such a welcoming smile when you walk in. Definitely recommend this place.“

“I have been coming here for several years. The owner is nice lady who did all her own cooking and the food was super and authentic. Now she has taken the food to new level. Amazing menu with a fantastic chef/owner. She also has hired a superb waiter named Lucky. Fantastic service and he is always trying to be helpful and double checks each order to make sure it is what you ordered. I took my guest and we had dine in and take out for my daughter. Dont for get to order the Vietnamese Ice Coffee. it is super. Thanks to the owner and her staff !!!! Sorry no pictures -- too busy eating tofu, egg rolls, shrimp fried rice, and chicken fried rice.“

“The broth is perfect! The sweet basil is sooooo good!! I love the egg rolls and how they serve them with lettuce and cucumber and a sweet sauce!!!“

“If this is not the best banh mi in all of Sgv and Oc, I don’t know of any place that can beat them. All cash by the way so come prepared. Their dac biet is the perfect sandwich and their daikon and carrots are light and bouncy with fresh jalapeno with the right amount of pate and butter. They have it down to perfection, nothing less. Had an open house and served it for homebuyers and they were blown away! Highly recommend! Cafe sua da is gold too, loved the shaved ice in the coffee and not too sweet. The ladies in the back are super sweet and you can buy the baguettes and freeze them, then 350 f for 6 mins in toaster or airfryer. Get the egg rolls, and pa te so is good too. My clients loved their vegetarian banh mi too!

Vegetarian options: Just get he vegetarian banh mi! Only vegetarian thing to get or just plain baguettes! It will be worth it!“

“The special #1 - must get comes with various meets“

“I love Meatball Pho here. It's really good👍 and staff so nice“

“Basic pho restaurant with the best pho broth in the San Gabriel Valley. We live down the street from Pho Fillet 2, and we drive past them to come here. The people who run this place are good wholesome families. Parking can be a bit tight, but the food makes up for any shortcomings. My wife is Vietnamese, so I let her take care of the ordering. They speak Vietnamese and English.“

“Friday 8/9/24 Dinner at Golden Noodle & Grill in Rowland Heights. I’ve ordered #38 Roasted chicken on tomato rice. It is so crispy outside flavorful and tender inside; so delicious. This restaurant is a hidden gem which makes delicious Vietnamese foods with reasonable prices.

Long, service staff, was friendly and attentive to customers.

Van Huynh, restaurant owner & chef, has a great personality and cooks delicious Vietnamese foods. Dishes includes pho, broken rice, vermicelli, Chinese noodle soup, chow fun & mein, congee, Banh mi, Vietnamese deserts, milk shakes, and smoothies; all at a reasonable price. She took her time to greet me and even strike a pose for a photo which is posted on her Google map restaurant. Thank you Van!

The restaurant has nice decorations, clean, well lit, and well air conditioned on this warm day.

I recommend trying out this restaurant.
