    Most amazing pho I've tasted. This is same place in a strip mall next to Vons. Try the spicy pho. It's out of this world.

    This might be the best pho spot on the north side of the San Gabriel Valley. It's a hot take considering the multitude of known spots in the area. Standard price but generous serving and well balanced broth, where you can really finish off the bowl and drink it without getting a headache from the excess salt in other recipes.

    The pho brisket was good but the broth was a bit salty and the Vietnamese coffee was a bit mild, tasting more condensed milk and than coffee not as bitter as it's should be.

    We always go for their Pho(delicious), but I just had their chicken katsu bowl last week, and it’s was amazing!!! Found my new favorite place for chicken katsu! Mouthwatering!

    Came here on a Saturday afternoon. Food came quickly, service was good. We ordered pho and pork vermicelli. All was tasty!

    We love coming here. Probably one of the best pho places around in Pasadena. Their tendon and brisket pho is excellent and so are the spring rolls. The kindest staff, too!

    Had beef vermicelli today. The best I’ve had. Really good portion size and lots of vegetables. Definitely coming back!

    You will not find a better Pho restaurant than this! Their broth is AMAZING! I always order the same thing because it's so delicious. (Rare beef Pho) The service is always good even when they are super busy. Food always comes out quickly and piping hot. This restaurant is highly recommended!

    I go once a week. They are amazing. Now they have short-rib pho which is my fav. Highly recommend!

    Favorite spot for pho and banh mi! The tofu summer rolls are amazing and we order them every time we visit. The pho chay is fantastic (I usually ask to sub fried tofu). The tofu banh mi is also great and my husband really liked his chicken banh mi. Definitely recommend the fries if you're dining in - so perfectly hot and crispy!

    My American friends are big fans of Pho. I picked this place which is closest to their house. Place location across the street from the hospital. Same plaza as Vons. For some reason google maps doesn't recognize entrances on California Blvd, but only on Pasadena Ave. It was pretty outside, probably last 80 that night, they keep the closed open.. I regretted sitting inside waiting for my friends, and got a few mosquito bites. There few tables inside and 2 tables outside Price is reasonable since everywhere is raising the price. Can of coke cost $2.. I told my friend it would be cheaper to go Vons to get 6 packs since he had 4 cans since is hot day Summer rolls $7.50 - gets 2 rolls - tasty okay.. Crispy Chicken Wings $9 -- are a small few pieces but taste pretty good.. Pho dac biet: $13.75 rare steak, well done brisket, meatball, tendon, and tripe.. I think the broth is too sweet, not sure if it is msg or sugar. But my friends love it. Beef Fried Rice: $12.50.. My friend's son loves it and it has become one of his favorite dishes. . This boy is very picky and only likes American foods like burgers and pizza. The service was good. Only give them 3 stars because I think the foods is okay

    Found this place during the pandemic. Really nice employees and we liked that they took the necessary precautions during when Covid was high. The food is really good and it’s in a convenient location with plenty of parking! Ordered their spring rolls without shrimp and with peanut sauce and it was soo yummy!! Shared the Pho and it was delicious and the noodle texture was perfect (chewy and a great balance between thick and thin)!! Their QR menu code is on the napkin box I did get a mosquito bite cause I was wearing shorts and the door was open but they can’t really control that.

    Really good pho here! Not a fancy place but quick and friendly.

    I finally found a good pho place is pasadena! Pho On Califronia is the best pho place in town. The broth has deep taste that will catch your tongue. Reasonable price and clean restaurant adds favor to your choice.

    This was really good pho. You will not go away hungry. Very flavorful and a good price. All the vegetables were very fresh. I would recommend to anyone

  • 5/5 Jonathan B. 1 year ago on Google
    Super friendly, family-run vibes, killer Vietnamese food with a bonus: they have easily the best french fries in all of Los Angeles.

    Spicy brisket pho was exceptional! Friendly and quick service. Everything very fresh. Vietnamese coffee is heavy on the milk.

  • 5/5 Henry M. 2 years ago on Google
    My favorite pho in Pasadena. Best if you sit down to eat it hot and fresh, but I've been doing takeout for the whole pandemic and it's good. Great prices, huge portions. I love the spicy pho.
