Vietnam Kitchen

Desiree Chavez

First off, my family and I have been coming here since I was in high school (when they were cash only) and I have never had a single complaint about this Vietnamese restaurant. They’ve kept to their original recipes, most food items and happens to have the strongest and best Vietnamese iced coffee in LA, imo. Their portions are generous and the staff is always friendly. Lunch times are typically slammed with call-in and to-go orders (so just be mindful as most places get slammed during lunch). Dinner is always a great option to come and dine-in. Overall, best Vietnamese restaurant for me and I’ve tried many throughout LA.

To me, the most important aspect of pho is the broth, and this restaurant has one of the deepest and richest broths I've ever tasted. It touched my soul in a way that only a few other phos have accomplished. But after sipping this broth, I was just as blown away by the crispy & hot egg roll. The restaurant is run by a very sweet but also stern & no nonsense Vietnamese auntie. She was the only waitress when we went so please be patient when the restaurant gets busy. The food is a little pricey but it's also very filling so it's definitely worth it in my opinion.

This is like a hole in the wall. Don't let the lame exterior signage fool you. Their food is amazing, everything is always amazing. I always get the chicken pho, and my partner always gets her pho with tripe. Love how the basil plate always has the freshest selection of basil and beansprouts. We've also been ordering their Cajun shrimp, which is also excellent. Service is efficient with no frills. Place is squeaky clean!

Sandwich was a little dry for me but the service was good. Took my order and I waited looking at the beautiful mountain side. They set the jalapeno outside the bun for those who can't eat spicy so that was thoughtful. Cool down with coconut juice.

There is something unique about their pho soup. The soup is not greasy. The noodles is like soft silk. I got the number 12.

It was my first time trying this place. I got the shredded chicken pho. Delicious.

The food was amazing. I had a sandwich and some pho. The best I’ve had an a minute.

This is the best place for pho in the area by far and it's not even close. The broth is clean and tastes amazing, the egg rolls are always fresh and piping hot, the spring rolls and bahn mi are both excellent, and their vermicelli is a cut above others. The ladies who run this place are great too. It's a mom and pop so expect relaxed and friendly service, even if things are bustling. Overall 11/10, you're missing out if you don't eat here.

It's not a fancy place, so manage your expectations. It has your standard Cali small Asian restaurant vibe, but it's managed with a level of pride, kindness and authenticity that makes the food taste incredibly delicious and consistent every time. No frills or extended pleasantries, but whether you sit in a small booth or grab some food to go, your stomach and your heart might just feel a little warmer after. It'll soon become one of your favorites too.

The best eggrolls that I have ever eaten. The best anchovy fried rice. Very good quality vegetables, you must try.

Very friendly staff that remembers everyone’s face. Amazing portion size for the pho and incredibly taste for the price. Absolutely no shortcuts in quality anywhere. Very hard to beat! Staffed by 3 aunties up front with an uncle cooking in the back.

Great pho! Flavor is amazing and everything is fresh. Will definitely come back here

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!

Had their home pho. Didnt have any tripe or tendon. It's okay. But I like with tripe and tendon. Staff is nice. Place is clean. Good food. Try it once !

Always in the mood for some good Vietnamese summer rolls! Place itself is pretty small. I usually do take out. Service is efficient and polite. This is probably the top 5 vietnamese restaurants in the 626 imo. Summer rolls have the crunchy mini egg roll inside the roll. Which I ❤️. It's a must, in my opinion (imo), for all summer rolls.

My food wasn’t bad at all

Pho was not great, 17 for regular bowl no large bowl option, i don't understand the high score, No tendon Noligament, little brisket raw flank, if you see signature pho with beef ball, then you know it's pho suc, who knows how the broth is cooked or diluted from powder. People need to judge the food not the service attitude.

This place used to be one of my go-to spots for takeout but today a bug crawled out of my food.

Tldr: if you value your time and money, don't go here. I have never heard of waiting for an hour plus for food at a Vietnamese restaurant. We came here to get takeout for the family, a simple order of a pho, a banh mi sandwich and two spring roll appetizers. When we got there, there were people sitting at tables and similarly, putting in to go orders. 30 mins later, no news. No food. For anyone. More people began piling up to dine in, pick up to go's and online orders. We were all waiting. A total of 45 mins later, we finally got our food... But they forgot our spring roll. The waitress put the food down in front of us, (didn't apologize or explain) and hurriedly took down what we missed. There's some yelling in the kitchen, some chaotic flurries of taped order tickets and waiting hungry customers. At this point, there were a few to go orders and one table served. Majority of people were still waiting with no food. After waiting for another 15 mins, and watching them pack up about two more (large) online orders, we left. We couldn't wait anymore because the kids at home were hungry and we needed to go. On principle, as a business practice, they should have alerted customers that something was wrong in the kitchen and/or that it was backed up. They should have stopped seating new customers when they already had a large backlog. They should have apologized and should have respected their customers' time. There should be an organized order-taking system for online orders, take out orders and dine in customers. They did none of these things. (And look, I've worked at a restaurant. I get when things go down, but you set expectations for your customers, apologize, and they'd understand.). Also, we did eat their pho (for $12 a bowl). There were exactly two slices of beef and two pieces of tendon. For the banh mi, for $7, it's a total joke at how small it was (see picture with my finger for scale). I won't be coming back again. And would caution others from this experience too. There are better Vietnamese places. Period.

I am very disappointed with this team. I come in every month to have pho soup with my family and co workers because the area is great and convenient. I realize they over charging us creating higher prizes than on menu. I will not come here again! Not acceptable how many more customers.
