So happy I discovered Pho Bò!!! Previously this general area had zero good Vietnamese food and just in general in San Diego it’s slim pickings. But I’m thrilled this restaurant is here and happy to see its run by a Vietnamese family. The pho broth was incredibly flavorful and surprised me at how good it was upon first sip. The well done steak was super tender and fresh which was also shocking because usually when I order this at other pho restaurants it’s super dry and chewy but not this one. Rice noodles I would say was average. The service was very fast and friendly. Not many people eating inside but lots of people picking up to go orders. The pho was 15 which is average. I also got the chicken gyoza just to try it out and that was decent. I’ll for sure be back to try more. Great menu selection!

Amazing and fast service! Staff were very friendly and welcoming, and eager to serve us. We ordered 3 orders of Summer Rolls with the peanut dipping sauce. One spring roll meal (2 rolls w/ sauce) was 7, which I consider a reasonable price. 3 orders only cost us 25, much lower price than other restaurants in the San Diego area. The spring rolls were very large and easily filled us up. The cashier offered us to take a seat kindly while we waited for our take out order, which came in about 10 minutes. Overall it was a pleasant experience and we’ll probably be heading back soon!

The culinary experience provided by this establishment is truly remarkable. The Pho broth, in particular, stands out as exceptional, surpassing any other we have encountered. It is evident that this establishment experiences a significant influx of customers during both lunch and dinner hours. Furthermore, free 2 hours parking, which adds to its appeal. The service provided by the staff is characterized by warmth and friendliness, creating a welcoming ambiance for patrons.

This restaurant is great; mostly empty on a Saturday night during dinner & I loved it. The prices are reasonable, but the main thing is how FAST the service is. I wasn’t sitting 5 minutes after they took my order before my food was brought out. There’s free parking across the street, and it’s located conveniently.
