Pho Thien Kim

This is the most expensive phở in little Saigon. Very little chicken and phở. Tiny little pieces of chicken on a small place made me think how I make for my 5 – 6 yrs old kid. Come on we ere not children. Will never go back to this place again

Good stuff! Very dense phở. Lots of noodles. Can’t imagine what the extra noodle version is like. Good broth too!

This Phở Thien Kim is owned be a famous Vietnamese singer name Thien Kim of course. This is one of the cleanest Vietnamese restaurants in Little Saigon that I’ve ever seen.
Menu is very straight forward, all things PHO. The Beef Phở was a let down, but the Chicken Phở was very good. The chicken meat was perfect and juicy, the broth is clear and tasty, and fresh herbs.
I love how they open at 8 AM, so we like to have a quick bowl before hitting the road back to Nor Cal. And the Chicken Phở bowl basic is only $ 6.50, WOW a bargain!
Friendly and efficient service.

Service was super fast; three orders out and ready in about what felt like 5 minutes. They have a small menu with only phở, phở ga (phở with chicken broth and pieces), and various drinks (coffee, condensed milk coffee, thai tea, soda, etc). Everyone can speak Vietnamese.

The Phở here is pretty good. Definitely one of our favorite spots in Orange County. Nice and friendly service as well. The only downfall is that it seems like a lot of people (maybe friends of management?) just loiter, and it makes it uncomfortable for actual customers to enjoy their Phở to not overhear conversations.

Went in for breakfast around 9am. Broth wasn’t bad. Food was ok. Felt the msg in my throat afterwards. The décor of the restaurant was nice and clean. Would have liked the servers and counter cashier smiling more and greeting, but I guess it’s a phở restaurant, what can u expect

Small little place here but the Phở is awesome. The menu is divided into Phở Bo or Phở Ga. One can tell they specialize in this with the limited item menu. The phở broth is tasty and lots of small a la carte stuff you can add in — I like options like that. This place is close to Ngu Binh restaurant and kinda hidden among the stores — a nice gem of a find.

I love the phở here. Sometimes I just want a simple bowl of phở that tastes homemade and healthy. The broth here is very clear and contains very little fat. You can really taste all of the ingredients that went into the broth and you know that it is not filled with MSG or artificial ingredients.
I got a small bowl of chicken breast phở. Of course, the serving was small but I felt that the meat to noodles ratio was well portioned. The chicken is free range and tasted very fresh. It comes on the side topped with lots of sliced onions and cilantro (a note to non-​Vietnamese folks, we Vietnamese people like to eat our chicken with the bone in). Also, really liked how the chicken phở came with fresh thick noodles without any extra charge. I only thing I didn’t care for was the ginger fish sauce, a bit too much lemon for my taste.
If I was in the area, I would be a regular here. Also, it’s hard to find a restaurant as clean as this place in Little Saigon.

This place is very nice. Has a nice ambiance. It is nice and is very friendly. This is also a place with the owner as Thien Kim.

This place was interesting…
The phở menu is pretty different then the other phở places I’ve gone to. So I opted to try out what I believed to be a safe choice.
My friend and I order the chicken breast phở and a few minutes later we got a plate that have bean sprouts, and some fat pieces of chicken, along with some herbs on top. I figured that it would be like other phở places where the chicken would be in the phở. But I guess not. That was fine. I opted to not eat the chicken since I don’t really like meat anyway.
I gave my friend my portion of the chicken and he poured both plates of chicken into his phở.
My phở, which was essentially broth and noodles, was fine. Nothing to really rave about.
However, while my friend was eating his phở and chicken, he kept finding bones in the chicken. Which is really gross. That’s not the type of chicken you want to be serving alongside phở. Maybe over at a chicken wings place… Just, no.

Friendly service and food came out fast! Great little place. Will come back for more.

The phở here is very delicious. You can taste how flavorful the broth is. There isn’t a lot of the oily taste that you get from the regular phở places.
The only downside were the noodles and meat… The noodles I had were harder than they should have been. The meat was very little. The ratio of noodles to meet were 3 – 1. There were a lot of noodles (which I could not stomach).

Tried this place randomly since we were in the neighborhood. Ordered a large phở and the serving size was smaller than a regular phở… there were hardly any noodles!!! Also, I ordered an ice coffee, but I certainly did not expect the entire cup of ice. See picture. I will never come here again!

Phở is flavorful and delicious. A small bowl is about 6.50 I believe. Price is average, but taste is above average. They give you a decent amount of phở for a small. I have eaten at a lot of phở places. I am not sure if they use msg or not, but if they do, they probably use very little. I am sensitive to the taste of msg, when there is too much msg my throat hurts alot after eating. My throat did not hurt after eating phở at this place. I would go again. In my opinion, Phở Thien Kim is on par with Phở 45 (my other favorite place).

This is a great discovery. The soup aroma is very pleasant, the service is very nice, the décor is fresh and bright, utensils are clean, restroom is spotless. I will bring my friends there to surprise them.

Good environment, good flavorful broth.

I’m a Phở fanatic. I can have phở 3 times a day, 7 days a week. So when it comes to Phở i’m really picky. I tried this place out when it first open and cannot stop coming since. The place is clean, you can smell the scent of phở when you walked in but not too offensively strong that it would stick to your clothing. I always go for the Phở Dac Biet for i love variety of toppings. The soup here is really flavorful yet remain clear not clouded like other Phở places. They give you plentiful of condiments. I especially love the chilly paste to eat the bo vien with.
Friendly service, you will see smiles everywhere. If you’re in the area, give this place a try. You won’t regret.

The broth was standard. For the price though – I would have liked more meat in the Phở Tai. Also would have been nice if they had trimmed the beansprouts. We went for dinner and maybe the sprouts had been out for a while, the ends were starting to look brownish/​dark.
However, I would come back because I think the service was good. If you have kids they will bring you scissors in a cup of hot water. Awesome and thoughtful. And I LOVE that they offer freshly diced red chilli peppers. Makes everything taste so good.

Grand opening of another phở restaurant added to Westminster area.
Lets begin with the wait– got here just in time before the line start about 11:30am.
Ordered phở tai, phở special, phở tai with beef balls.
The wait for the food to arrive is about 15 – 20 minutes.
Taste– first thing to do– sip the broth; you can taste the msg– sweet and addicting. Other than that the noodle is right on point, delicious. The meat is nothing special– typical beef– slice thin and gets chewy after it over cook in the broth. Definitely not your filet mignon type of soft meat. The one I normally go to is phở kimmy (changed name now).
Overall is good service and food is better than most of the 50% off phở restaurant you see.
