Phở 54 Restaurant

Ordered 2 large filet mignon rare beef. Very good flavor and not too salty and generous portion. Feed 3 people!

I've been coming to this restaurant for over 10 years now. Very consistent service and flavour. In addition, the people that works here are always optimistic and enthusiastic. No issues whatsoever! Recently they starting offering free WI-FI! Very nice environment. Cozy and welcoming. I always leave the place satisfied, and happy, with a big smile on my face! Keep up the great work! I really appreciate your hard work and consistency!

Great service, pho, and hospitality. Not too bad of a price either. The broth is amazing. I normally have to add stuff to the broth when it comes, but I was surprised at how flavorful it was. Happy customer. The medium is more like a large, will definitely only need a small next time

I’ve been coming here for over 2 years now, and after trying other Pho restos in OC, this is still my favorite. Maybe it’s nostalgic, but the price, speed of service, and quality is consistent and great. The Rare Steak Pho broth is not overly salty, it’s a perfectly balanced light-savory flavor, and the rare steak is cut thinly and cooks fast. I have never experienced my order to arrive later than 5 minutes from ordering, and it consistently arrives close to 3 minutes after ordering. The restaurant focuses on their food and service, and that’s what I want to pay for. I don’t need impressive interior or decorations, just good food with good company.

How good is this place. I've been eating at Pho 54 since back when they were in Long Beach. Same original taste with the same relative price. This is where a lot of the Vietnamese community goes to get their Dac Biet fix - that speaks for itself.

The food is really good here and the prices are very reasonable. All sorts of people come here, not just Vietnamese, even an on-duty officer for his dinner break. It's one of the best Vietnamese restaurants I have been to.

Delicious. Very friendly and a great spot to have a great lunch or dinner. My husband and I have been coming here for 5 years now.

Very considerate and polite servers. Fragrant sauce and home cooked flavors, no MSG and no negative chemical side effects. High quality ingredients with authentic tastes for affordable prices. An abundant, opulent meal for four adults cost under $40. 10/10 Very pleased. They've earned four new regulars.

I’m not gonna lie, I was really skeptical of this place for being one of the few Viet places open late, which are normally not that good. I was so wrong. Really kind people and even better service. They offered us free drinks after we hesitated about wanting any at all. I had the filet mignon and well done brisket pho. Upgrading rare steak to filet mignon was only $0.75 upcharge. I would’ve paid so much more if I had to. Most delicious restaurant pho I’ve ever had!!! I will be dreaming about the meat and the broth forever. This place is cash only just like most other businesses in the area. Wish I didn’t live so far away so I could frequent more!

Love this place I always eat Pho here. And sometimes the broken rice with parboiled prok and egg. They have an offer of a free drink (Thai tea) when you purchase a meal.

Broth was full of flavor with plenty meat and great portion. Entire meal was very good quality and well served. Free drinks offer was extra incentive to come back again.

1st time in this place and love it since I walk in very clean and fast service and the staff was very nice and the food omg delicious I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place 1st time and for sure not the last one and the best they open till late.

Had amazing pho and Vietnamese iced coffee here! My fiancé and I were in Vietnam last year and this pho brought us back to memories!

Quality People

Uhm excuse me it’s a 4.7 star place not a 4.3!

It’s so amazing!! I love to come here whenever I want to eat pho. They serve it in huge sizes and it’s always at a good and affordable price for 2 or more people 😋😋 Edit: it’s been a year and I still enjoy this place. The pho is very affordable especially for a large. I always come out full, and enjoy my meal. I never have to wait for a long time either. I highly recommend going here for a good meal, plus free Thai ice tea when ordering my pho :)

Nice family owned pho restaurant. Very spacious interior with some booths. The pho is very fairly priced and portions are huge. They even offer a variety of complementary nonalcoholic drinks besides water like Thai tea, soy milk, lemonade. Waiter was very kind and friendly.

The pho I ate here tasted pretty good. Not the best I have eaten though. The service was fine and they made me feel satisfied. The only thing I don’t like about this place is that it is cash only, which was a major inconvenience. They do offer a free drink for every dish you purchase though, which I think is sort of nice even though it is a relatively small amount they give you.

This is a great place to go for Pho. They have a lot of options, and their Thai tea is amazing. I always go for the Diced Beef and Rice. My GF always goes for the Pho. They have large portions here, so if you want a regular sized portion of Pho, go with the small option.

One of the more underrated pho places in OC! Everyone loves going to pho 79 or pho holic nowadays. Those places get so busy so fast on the weekend, you can give this place a go as their pho almost as good!

Hit and miss. Some days food and service are perfect, some days they forgot or mix up our order, or the Pho is not hot. But overall is not bad. Recommend coming earlier of the day. They seem to be tired and confused in the evening lol

Best Vietnamese Pho in town, decent price and quality food, specially you can get filet mignon here, meat always fresh and tastes good.

What can I say? It's not gourmet but it's super yummy. It's a great spot to go because it's open late, it's cheap, the portions are large, and it's delicious. I normally just get the pho when I'm there. I like the rare steak or the shrimp. I've tried some of their meals and they are pretty tastey as well. The thai iced tea is bomb!

Got the pork chop and rice noodles dish. The meat was the standard marinated affair but the salad portion stole the show. So many great herbs chopped beautifully. They make the bun awesome.

very good pho especially for the value price. they give lots of veggies, noodles and meat but soup could’ve been better. maybe some new furniture and decor would do the trick.

The pho broth was rich and flavorful. The rare beef and brisket were tender and delicious. The portion size was generous and the price was low. The service was quick but curt. The humble, no-frills interior of the restaurant was clean and bright, but rather noisy given all the hard surfaces.

One of our favorite places to get authentic tasting pho that comes with a free drink of choice. The location on Brookhurts & McFadden is way better but is always really busy and hard to get parking

Fast and delicious service!😋🥰 Their Pho obviously is a MUST, but I also recommend their Fried Rice and their egg rolls!👍

Nice pho place. They got plenty of space inside and had a large group they entertained. They professionally managed. Their meals include a drink. I got a Thai tea with my Pho. Great combo and reasonably priced.

Key highlight: open early We got pho and fresh shrimp rolls for breakfast and a vermicelli bowl to go. The pho broth was flavourful but too salty, and the shrimp rolls were good as well but not anything special. The service was great.

A reliable pho spot. I ordered a small No. 1. They gave me plenty of meat and a good amount of noodles. The taste of spices in their soup leans towards the milder side; the soup is nonetheless delicious! The noodles were kinda soft for my taste, but I came late at night so. Will definitely give them another try!

Didn't order Pho. We had spring rolls and Bun Tom Thjt Nuong Cha Gio (char broiled shrimp, pork and egg roll with vermicelli). My daughter's shrimp spring roll itself was good, but the peanut sauce was bland - tasted like it was from a bottle and it had zero peanuty taste (though a few peanut pieces were sprinkled on top). My dish was similarly bland. The fish sauce was bland, the pork had no taste, and the egg rolls were meh. It was, however, nicely topped with fresh lettuce and cilantro. Restaurant was half empty during Saturday lunch time. The server, however, was prompt and responsive.

This place serves decent food, but their pho is not the same high quality as the other two with the same name in different locations. Very good prices though.

We visited this Pho on 9/18/21. We waited a few minutes to be seated. Not too crowded. I really enjoyed the feeling I got of being in a 80’s Van Dam or Norris movie with the neon lights. As you can we ordered the dishes. The shrimp Pho was tasty. The egg rolls were great! They were my favorite. I forget what the Mrs. but she loved it. We will continue exploring the late night Vietnamese dishes in Orange County and share our thoughts with you. We will be coming back soon. I’ve included photos you can check out.

I don't know if it's the pandemic or just the location. All the food came out just okay. Utensil was a bit uncleaned. But the food hit the spot if you're hungry.

Not as good as the pho 54 on mcfadden and brookhurst but not terrible. This location has free drinks including Thai tea.

The Mechercht does not accept credit cards, and the food is just okay. The meat amount is not sufficient. Compared to other Pho shops, it’s worth the money.

I've been coming here for years when I visit Disneyland. The food use to be better and so were the prices. Seems like the Pho has gotten smaller even when I ordered a Large bowl? They also use way too much MSG! Service has always been mediocre. Won't be coming back anymore. Also if you get the free drink, they charge for the cup lol

Waiters not really welcoming customers. They don't know how to cook stew beef (meat like a plastic). Price was raised from $8 to more than $12 with small bold. Won't return to this restaurant anymore 😡👎👎👎

Food is good but the server that wears the hat and mask was very rude to us the owner needs to talk to him about his manners , he needs to be better with customers he needs to respect customers

It was a loud atmosphere and the service was terrible, because they took a long time to give you your food and the staff were rude and very unfriendly. The food wasn’t that great either and the beef had a terrible smell coming from it. Definitely will not come again so save your money.

Terrible Customer Service!!!!! Attention the bald guy with Hat and Mask on has the ugliest horrible attitude i have ever seen., this guy was so rud to me and my family i have lots to say but i dont like waisting my time we will Never Ever come back !!!! IF YOU WANNA GET TREATED LIKE IF YOUR EATING FOR FREE .... THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU BALD GUY IS PROBABLY MISERABLE IN LIFE.!!!!
