Lakeside Pho & Grill

Great place to eat Pho: Family run place with attention to detail. If you want to eat real tasting home food in Vietnam: please visit this amazing restaurant.

Wow. Best food I’ve had in a long while. I got delivery of the beef vermicelli, spring rolls, & the milk tea with boba. The beef & noodles were great with the fish sauce, came with a delicious assortment of veggies, boba was soft and sweet, spring rolls were killer. Everything I wanted & so much more

I might be a little addicted to this place. The food is amazing and the staff is always friendly and attentive. I think I’ve been there at least 4 times in the past two weeks, and that’s a lot for me. My fave phos so far are number 7 and number 12. Also, the D1 strawberry basil tea is amazing!!!! Highly recommend! If you go, let me know which dish you like the best! :)

I love this place!! The food is amazing. I've tried other restaurants, and the Pho broth is missing flavor. Not here! The broth is amazing!!! Once I tried it, I couldn't go anywhere else. I love getting the No.13 with extra tripe🍲🤤. The spring rolls were fresh and soooo good. The chicken wings are crispy and full of flavor. We've tried the butter and garlic🔥😋. The people there are super friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Pad Thai and Spring Rolls are awesome! Always fresh and made to order. Love Lakeside Pho! Never had a bad meal here, let me say. Great prices as well!

A good discovery for a nice hot bowl of Pho, located in Lakeside, CA. We ordered a couple of bowls of the house special pho, and it was delicious. We also ordered some egg roll combo appetizers, very fresh, hot & crispy. The lady Server was very friendly, good spirited & very helpful. It was lunchtime and there was a few customers picking up orders to go. Our food was done & delivered to us in no time. We will definitely be coming back to try the other items on their menu.

Delicious! Everything I’ve had here tastes fresh and authentic. Customer Service is super good, they are so welcoming and attentive.

Holy moly, their pho bowls are HUGE. It's like a large from Pho Ca Dao, but with more meat than the Pho Ca Dao Santee location's been giving as of late. Good broth, though they didn't give us too much rau (basil). I also got the spring rolls and they're not bad!

Ever since moving to Lakeside, this place has been our staple for dinner Fridays. The service is 10/10 so quick and friendly. Highly recommend when in the area!

This is my favorite place to come eat. My daughter and I come at least once a wee for lunch dates. I recommend the sweet and spicy wings. Delicious and great service.

What an amazing place in heart of Lakeside Customer service was amazing and even though they were a little pack they were attendant of everyone. There pho and there food is amazing will defenately recommend to anyone it won't disappoint you.

I freak with this place heavy. Food good and stuff, service is usually good. Not to slander my goats but sometimes the service isint peak however I am madly in love with this place.

this is my favorite place to go get pho. only after visiting 2 times the server was recognizing us and calling us friends. you can sit anywhere you like, there's 3 tvs you can choose to look at, ones channel changes, one is on sports and the last on cartoons, they play music occasionally & it's usually instrumental covers, I love the songs that play. service is quick and friendly, I usually get the house special pho which is rare steak, chicken and shrimp, or shrimp fried rice. my wife usually gets ox tail pho, both options are really good. their thai tea w boba is the best Thai tea imo

I always get their number seven pho and it's always a treat to see that they serve salted plum soda. Their staff is a delight, and the old man is so nice. this is my boyfriend's go to place . His favorites are the broken rice dishes , the vermicelli with pork, and the banh mi sandwiches. Sometimes they take a little long to get the food out but it's always worth the wait . I

The food her is so good. I tried for the first time a week ago I got the pho with ribs. Now I'm back again to try the pho with oxtail and brisket. DELICIOUS 😋

I order takeout from here all the time. The Pho is delicious and even when they're busy its ready pretty quick. Great food, nice staff

This plaza has decent parking. There is outdoor seating available. Friendly staff and prices are relatively low compared to other “pho and grill” places. We always order similar items at Vietnamese/pho and grill restaurants. -Crispy wings ($12.25): we got fish sauce flavor. Wings were big and juicy with the sticky flavor. -Stir fried egg noodle combo ($15.99): This dish needed help. The noodles tasted stale and overly fried. The sauce could be thicker and seasoned more. The veggies were undercooked and thrown on top making it crunchy. -BBQ pork rice dish ($14.99): The meat was sliced thin and grilled with a charred smokey flavor. Would be so much better if they served broken rice instead of regular rice. -Pho filet mignon ($16.99): My mom really liked that the filets were beyond thin. -pho beef rib ($16.99): My fiancé is a pho snob and he said he’s had better. The broth was clean, less aromatic spices. We came during lunch right when they opened as the first sit down customer and it took awhile for food to come out. The last dish took 35 mins from the first. Best to call in your order if you’re doing take out. Since we order identical or similar items at “pho and grill” restaurants, the food here is decent but not the best we’ve had.

Honestly, the slowest service I've EVER experienced from a Pho place. I think I was there 30 or 40 minutes before I received my soup, and 20 before they even took my order. I didn't get the veggies until I was nearly finished eating. The customer next to me was CLEARLY very unhappy about his wait. No updates were provided, nor customer service rendered. You get your food when you get it. 😅 The total was not disclosed until I held the credit slip in my hand. It's a small thing, but given the person in the reviews claiming they were charged an extra 7 dollars without their consent, I was a little worried. Food was ok, but nothing amazing, and I'm not sure where the reviewers are finding this the best Pho ever, but to each his own, and that's ok. Portion sizes seem generous. I'd rather eat here than the McDonalds next door, but honestly, it's kind of a toss up. I probably won't choose to come back, honestly. Best of luck, all.
