My friend and I decided to try Phở Viet to see how their food tasted. The services were great. So we decided to share a bowl of phở, so we can order other items to taste. We ordered spring rolls and egg rolls, hot coffee, iced coffee. They were great. My friend ordered hot coffee, and they served her the instant coffee. She asked if she can have the Vietnamese drip coffee, the guy was able to offer her the change without a problem because we didn’t know they serve instants. We prefer the Vietnamese style coffee. No instant, please! I got the cold coffee which I can tell was instant, which didn’t taste that bad because they put a lot of cream in it. The phở was not bad at all. We got the ox tails beef phở which the meat was still chewy. I like it a little more tender or fall off the bones. That’s how I make it at home. I looked around the room and notice they decorated the place with a lot of fruits. We looked at the menu again. So we wanted to try their smoothies wondering if they make it out of real fruits. So we waved our hands for service. We asked they guy if the smoothies are from real fruits, he said yes. I thought that is so awesome. We ordered the avocado smoothie to share. OMG!!! It was the bomb!!! The place looks cleaned and air, except it got really warm by the time we finished our food and all. And they still didn’t turned on the air. I mean we were sweating. That’s my pet peeves with Asian restaurants! Their so conservative on the AC it makes the restaurant cheesy and undesirable to be in. And the whole instant coffee thing. I think if you’re not going to serve the real deal tell your customers about it. Or if you’re going to serve both, then ask your customers what they want, real coffee or instant. Let the customers decide what they want. If they want the good stuff they are willing to wait. I do not like to not being informed about and later said, oh yes, we do have it. It doubled the work for yourself, why not make it easier. We loved, loved Vietnamese coffee, this is why this place gets 3.5 stars from me. Don’t know why it won’t let me do 3.5, just gives me 3stars.

Good Vietnamese food. We tried their phở and stir fried squid dish. Both were tasty. I still think the best phở in Rancho is Phở Ha, but Phở Viet might be a close second place.

We decided to try out this new spot that we learned of in rancho, and glad we did. I usually am a fan of Phở Ha, also in rancho, but this restaurant is closer to my home and with the positive reviews was worth a try. We opted for take out and were very happy with the food and taste. I ordered a #30 beef soup and my wife got #122 which is a vegetarian dish. We were very pleased with he taste and the packaging of the to go items. The #122 did say it comes with egg rolls which weren’t provided in our bag and I didn’t feel like going back but next time I will double check while at the restaurant. I gave 4 not 5 stars because of the egg rolls being missing from my order but food quality and taste was on point.

The service was fantastic can’t complain! i hate giving this review because of how nice the employers are. but anyways decided to check this place out, got their Phở which was pretty good and my husband got a noodle dish, we get our food & start eating and as were moving the noodles around(my husband had already taken a bite from the noodles) we notice theres a HUGE mosquito, not a fly a huge dead mosquito right in the middle of our noodles. As soon as we saw that of course we told the employees they were very apologetic. we couldn’t enjoy our food after that tho, maybe the food was magnificent but after seeing that i had no taste for it anymore. At the time i was pregnant it was a bad combo as soon as i got in the car i threw up the whole phở up. horrible experience can’t say ill come back.

Great food, great prices. Been frequenting Phở Viet for approx. 3 months now, going about twice a week. My usual is the #29 phở bowl– all meats and the spring rolls with fish sauce. The lunch specials are very reasonably priced especially for the amount of food you get and everything tastes great. The restaurant is large and I’ve always been able to find a table and be served right away. If your in the Rancho Cucamonga area and are craving Phở, definitely give Phở Viet a try.

My boyfriend and I like to visit different phở places when we go out of town. We really liked this one. The service was fast and people greeted us very nicely when we walked in. Their phở was really good and their Thai tea delicious!

Stumbled upon this place after a meeting. Great lunch special prices! Got the banh mi nem nuong, pretty good for $ 3! Viet coffee is alright. Not the best I’ve had. I also added egg rolls to my order for $ 2 :)

Went there today for lunch. My usual spot is Phở Ha! I ordered the chicken curry and rice. My brother ordered the Oxtail soup. My curry(which was yellow) was super watery like phở consistency. There was literally a ton of lemon grass in there which made it very unpleasant to eat. Plus I’ve never ever had lemon grass in my yellow curry. It was very off putting. The flavour was just ok but also super bland. I didn’t want to want to take my left overs home. I added Sriracha but my curry couldn’t be saved. Also, the chicken was mushy and stewed to the point like the bone marrow of the chicken was super mushy and congealed with meat. It’s like the chicken was in a crockpot sitting for two days. Just gross. As for the oxtail soup, my brother has had this several times in DTLA but never like this. The oxtails were hard, salty and seemed to be old. The broth was ok but the oxtails were literally inedible. Overall I’m super sad because this place is really cute, clean and the staff is super friendly but I do feel that they need to fire the chef ASAP.

My wife and I came here Friday night. We were trying to hit up Slaters but the wait was too much so we changed it up for something warm. Soup was ok with very little after taste of MSG. Huge portions on the phở Dac biet. My wife got the pork and shrimp egg noodle which was rich in flavor… there’s plenty of lunch specials between 9am to 3pm for $ 6… Also make sure to clarify the price of the young coconut. They decided to charge us $ 5 instead of $ 4. Not worth it if you ask me. For this lack of price clarity I’m opting to give this place 2 stars…

My family and I go here often because it is the closest phở near our house. When they first opened they had great customer service and the food was great! Since then their customer services hasn’t been consistent. Their food is still good but their phở broth isn’t consistent. Sometimes I get it warm, sometimes I get it hot. All I can say is they need to improve on their customer service and be more consistent with their food.

My husband and I decided to give this place a try after seeing a friend’s post on fb. We were excited that there might be another good phở restaurant in the area aside from Phở Ha. Our first visit was disappointment. My husband ordered Phở and the broth was bland. I ordered the bun Bo hue and it was one of the worst I’ve tasted. It lacked flavor and the meat didn’t taste fresh. I’m a stickler when it comes to the temperature of my food. When a dish is meant to be served hot like my noodle soup, I expected it to be pipping hot when I get it. It came warm. We will not be visiting this place again. It’s back to Phở Ha.

My go-to viet cuisine restaurant from now on! Right when I walked in, I received a warm greeting and was asked to sit anywhere I liked. So I felt very welcomed. I first asked if they had what I wanted and I got an immediate yes. Awesome! I don’t know many placed outside of OC that serves Bun Rieu but I am going to get here from now on. For the uninitiated, Bun Rieu is a tomato pork bone broth base, with crab meat and shrimp clumps held together by egg(think omelet), slices of tomato, other veggies, and angle hair like rice noodles. Food came out freshly hot and I dived in with caution. Mmmm, craving satisfied. I chased it down with a delicious strawberry and banana smoothie, made with real fruits, and now I’m stuffed. I didn’t even look at the menu when I came in and so I asked if I could browse their selection halfway through my meal. So much food! So many options! And the prices! I am definitely coming back here again to try other dishes.

Come here to beat the lunch crowd, not many people were here since this is a pretty new place. Clean & nice looking place, they could turn on the AC when it gets out outside though rather than having only fans on. Phở broth was decent(not too light) but when the phở came out it wasn’t hot, it was only lukewarm. –1 Service: B Attentive but had asked us what we wanted to order right away after we had just sat down. Many viet mom & pop places do this, I dunno why they do. Please give customers a couple minutes to decide what they want to eat 1st before asking. Overall: decent viet food at a clean Viet restaurant.

The best authentic Vietnamese restaurant in the Inland Empire I’ve every had in my opinion. I found this place on Unilocal last minute. When we were there the owner said they’ve been open for only 7 months. The shopping center is set back a little and hard to see from Foothill unless you are intentionally planning to go there. The FOOD: First, the menu options are extensive. From vermicelli dishes to phở to noodles to hot pots. I ordered the Pineapple Shrimp Fried Rice(a portion large enough for two people to share) with a beautiful presentation, served in a pineapple cut lengthwise. This was the BEST pineapple fried rice I’ve tasted. My friend had the Filet Mignon Noodle Phở and they didn’t skimp on the portions here either — lots of tender beef and deliciousness. The broth flavor was well-rounded, just add a little hoisin sauce and you’re good! We were so full from these two that we didn’t have room for dessert! I’m hoping next time I will be able to give their desserts a try. The RESTAURANT: The place is clean and very open. Booth and table seating available, families welcome. Two flat screens on opposite walls. Bathroom clean(in women’s), I didn’t ask my friend to tell me about the mens, but knowing him he would say something if it wasn’t. They display lots of fruit behind the counter. I’m guessing it acts as decoration but also the fruit are used for their large selection of juices and boba drinks. The SERVICE: The reason why I give this place a 5 is because not only was the food delish, the staff and service was excellent. Very kind people and they say thank you as patrons leave. You can tell they poured love into this place and into their food. My hope is that they get plenty of biz so they stay around for awhile! Try it out!

This review is based off the Phở Dac Biet(Special) that I ordered. I don’t have much to say about it except the broth was bland and didn’t have any depth to it. Trust me I would know… I’m viet and I’ve made and ate phở my entire life. I have high expectations when it comes to Phở. I’m also not very pleased that it costs nearly $ 10 for a bowl when average prices for phở is usually a $ 7– $ 8. I’m sorry I really wanted to like it but I did not. Two Stars!

The ambiance of this place is nice but that’s all the credit I can give to it. My husband and I were given a bad service. The servers seems to pressure you when you order. They don’t give you enough time to look over their BIG menu. The server seems to be eager to get over our order to be able to chat with the co workers who are just two tables from our seat and watch tv. My goodness! I thought workers are not suppose to do that even if you have just few customers around. On the other hand, the food taste just ok. The roasted chicken i order with baked egg is dry and plain to taste. The baked egg has noodles on it that i dont like. The combination is not good for me. They give hot sauce that has strong smell and bad taste. My husband’s order #58 which are vermicelli with shrimps, beef and meatballs looks delicious but taste plain too. I think this phở is over rated. I find phở bambu better than this.

Sadly disappointed with this place. I ordered to-go inside and the guy who took my order acted like I was bothering him. He didn’t even speak to me and when I decided to add a drink to my order, he all but rolled his eyes. There was no place to sit and wait because there was a Christmas tree where the waiting area was so I sat at an empty table. They brought my drink(Thai Tea w/boba) to me at the table and it was really bad. Like really really REALLY bad :(The Thai tea was 99% milk — you couldn’t really taste the Thai tea flavor but the boba was probably the worst part. It was disgusting. It was hard, cold and had NO flavor! I was REALLY craving phở so I really hoped it was going to be better than the service and the drink. But sadly, it was not. By the time I got home, the soup was cool. It took me all of four min to get home, so there was no reason for it to be so cold. Then when I went to add the noodles and beef to my bowl, the beef was FROZEN! it was two blocks of frozen beef! I couldn’t believe it! Not only that, they only gave 1 tiny packet of hoisin sauce and 1 packet of chili sauce. PACKETS! That’s so ghetto! It was just all bad :(I hate writing bad reviews. it makes me sad, but it’s all true.

This is my second time here. I believe the restaurant is ran by a family because every time I’ve eaten here the workers are either eating together for lunch or dinner. Service is very fast. There typically is no wait time because they have plenty of seating. The workers are also very friendly. We just to go to phở ha for Vietnamese food, but now that there is this place around the corner with the same quality food, I would definitely choose this place. Every time I have gone here, I have ordered the chicken wings that is glazed in a tamarind sweet and sour sauce. I think that’s my favorite dish so far. I have ordered a beef dish and fried rice and both dishes were pretty good. I forgot to take a picture of my fried rice with shrimp, but it comes in a pineapple and they have small chunks of pineapple in the fried rice. I will probably come and try different dishes. I still have yet to try the variety of food they have. They have a big menu, some spelling mistakes, but they can easily fix that.

Love the fact that this restaurant serves hot pot!!! You actually don’t see any restaurant around that IE that does that. Especially Vietnamese restaurants. I was in awe when I walked into this restaurant, the presentations looked so different and unique, very Vietnamese like. fruits were everywhere. It was very open and spacious! I tried sour soup hot pot, the first listing on the menu for hot pots. I ordered the medium size and it was pretty big for only$ 20. I also had a coconut which was around 4⁄5 $ and it was the best. No one restaurants around this area does this. I really like this restaurant and hoping to try other menu item. Only dislike was how hidden this restaurant was when driving around. Wouldn’t have found out about this place if my friend didn’t recommend me! But this is a hot new place
