Came to this joint during my recent trip to LA. They weren't busy during my visit and they had open seating for the most part. I ordered a BBQ pork banh mi sandwich w/BBQ pork spring rolls. Both items were excellent.The sandwich was awesome. The pork was marinated different than what I'm used to and the sandwich didn't contain pickled daikon or a jalapeno/serrano pepper. Instead it only contained cucumber, carrots, and cilantro. No complaints here. It was delicious! The bread was warm and crispy but forgiving when eaten.The spring rolls were fresh and contained the same meat as the sandwich. The vegetables were crispy and not soggy. While the peanut sauce that came with it was ok; add a little Sriracha and all is good!
This review is for dine in for lunch on a Saturday. If just reviewing for food it would be 4.5 stars on the pho. Big portions, nice flavor and lots of meat at a great value of $17 for a large bowl.The problem was that we dined in (take out strongly suggested.) The restaurant looks like it needed a face lift in 1998, tons of tables had dirty dishes from previous diners that no one touched when we were there for 45 minutes (but the hostess rolled new silverware set ups for about 150 people) and the stains on the walls looked like they were whipped down pre-pandemic.Mens bathroom is disgusting as well and guessing the women’s bathroom is marginally better at best.FYI, they have a B health rating.On the plus side the place is open till 4am for your post rave, intoxicated pleasure when you could care less about hygiene.

Horrible service ever!!!!!! The waitress must be new but I told her that we needed a sauce with no peanuts for our spring rolls since they are the only ones who provide that as long as you tell the staff. Now I've been coming here for years and they know my daughter. Well she came back and said the sauce is made out of peanuts and I said no they have a sauce w/out and she stood there and kept saying no its made out of peanuts. Now thus went on for a few minutes. By then I am getting irritated since my daughter wanted spring rolls. I then stopped and was upset and she walked away. There was also a small fly in our sauce which she then took back but thank God we didn't need the sauce. The food: spring rolls weren't the same. The BBQ pork was more fat and tasted off. The pho the veggies seemed very old. Picture to come. The plate I ordered the meat bbq beef seemed charred. Not once did she come to check to see if we needed anything else or more water and I had to go grab my own beer. Never have I had this experience there. Time to push away from this place.
I used to come here before and it got really bad. The service and food was terrible so I stop coming but last weekend decided to visit since they are open till 3 or 4am in the morning. They used to be 24 hrs before. The food quality has been updated and was actually pretty good. Also, the service has improved dramatically since the last time I've been here. I feel like either the owners changed or there is a new manager, whatever the case I will be back for some late night snack.
Service is always great, respectful and friendly staff. Food is delicious and reasonably priced. The atmosphere is very nice (good vibes), it feels homey even when the restaurant is busy. I drive down about half an hour just for this place, one of my favorites.
This phone place is one of the best Pho places for late night eats definitely ....Tuesday they're not open ...however everyday after.... I think they closed at 4am... but they have the best Pho in the Gardena area ...check them out
what a immoral owner he is. I ordered 3 dishes tonight: $9.5 2dishes and $6.5 one dish and 3 hot teas. I ordered normal hot free tea in chinese or vietnam restaurant. the waiter recommended me to take those menus. Finally, they charged me 35 dollars without explaining each menu price. so I asked the lady owner. she lied me they didn't updated the menu price yet. It was correct. Menu price was correct. suddenly, male owner appeared and explained that they charged tea price $1.5 each. so it was total about $34. but even there is still different between the two bills. they cheat the price. and they overcharged me and never sorry to me. I paid 38 dollars with $3 tip. it should be 27 dollars in total. the owner lied to me and try to hide his intention. and say do not come to my restaurant. what kind of person he is....do not go there please
I purchased the raw flank pho small, ice coffee along with the pork egg rolls. The place is modest, pleasant, and the waitstaff was attentive. The pho broth was flavorful. Which I don’t know why it took me 6 months to find a decent pho place but it was worth finding this place. I made my pho spicy which they provided extra spices upon request. The portion was a small and I couldn’t finish it. Worth coming out and giving this place your business. Will be back with friends 100%
1/15/22 The Pho was delicious (spring rolls meh), first time being here and it certainly won’t be my last. The service is excellent. I’m glad that there’s a late night pho place to go to. 10/10 ???
