okay let’s be honest..i personally LOVE pho so when i came to this place i was so excitedi came in and i was really disappointed because they only had 3 pho choices. wasnt this a pho place? not a hamburger place..then i just decided to give it a try..they brought the pho to my table and it smelled really good.the noodles were in a ball and were all stuck together.the noodles were not like pho noodles and they were like slippery-rubbery noodles..the soup however was pretty good but the noodles i highly do NOT recommend,,the prices for the phos are not worth it-so disappointed and would NEVER come back here again.

This is a non-traditional Vietnamese restaurant where you order and pay at the counter and they bring the food to your table. No common Vietnamese/Chinese decor, i.e. lucky bamboo, Buddha figurines and gold everything. The dining room is clean with tables for groups or for many to share. The food, pho, pork chop over rice, fried egg rolls, came quickly and was delicious. Do be prepared to repeat your selection to confirm your order. The lady behind the acrylic protective divider who took our order was polite and patient, but had a heavy accent that we had a hard time deciphering if she heard our order or not.

My first time eating Bahn Mi and it was so amazing! You can tell the bread is freshly made and the beef is so flavorful and juicy too! I tried their Vermicelli noodles with chicken and it was so refreshing and yummy! Hoping to come back soon!

This Banh Mi Che Cali is much better than the one that has the same name at San Gabriel. My wife gave it a high score as a picky noodle lover. The Pho there is so delicious, the portion is so big.it's only 5-10 minutes drive from home, so I ordered takeaway several times. I only need two Pho to feed four people at my home. Only $2 extra beef is a big portion with a separated bag. The sandwich is full of stuff, good taste.

This is what I get when I ask for limes.... The rating is based on the consistent bad experience I have gotten at this bahn mi che cali. But this lime is what pushed me to finally leave a review haha.

Love this spot. Every week after my morning class at pcc I come get 2 bahn mi to take home for me and my partner. We live by Chinatown and honestly these rival the best bahn mis there. Good price, good size, delicious. This spot is an absolute staple.

Amazing pho! I got the rare steak pho and it was some of the best I've had. Add to that fast service, good prices, nice outdoor space.

Really fresh tasting and delicious Banh Mis. The staff were also really nice, and we really appreciated how accommodating they were. An overall lovely meal in the outdoor courtyard seating area.

Just leaving review for others, I wanted to try this pho place because of their sandwiches. Looks like sandwiches are their main thing. Which was not as good as I expected. Looked like they rushed to make the sandwiches, not enough sauce, too dry and plain. We also ordered pho and dined in. There were no condiments (chili oil, soy sauce, salt or pepper) I even asked them, and they said they don’t have any. Overall food I’d rate it 3. Food was decent, could be better. The boba drinks were refreshing though.

Yum! Fresh passionfruit juice. Bun and pad thai for dinner. Freshly made dishes. Bun is rice vermicelli and shredded lettuce topped with grilled and seasoned pork, shrimp, fresh mint leaves, pickled daikon and carrots, bean sprouts, sauteed green onions. Diluted dish sauce is added to tossed diah just before eating. Not spicy but sriracha sauce available upon request. Delicious dish.
