My family enjoyed lunch here recently. We especially like our vermicelli based dishes. I like the pork & shrimp combo the best. Their fried egg rolls are the best I've had in a Vietnamese restaurant, while their steamed spring rolls, not as much. I like them better when there is a little more shrimp/pork inside and with cilantro intead of... More

This place was popping! I thought we were going to have to wait long, but we got seated in less than 5 minutes. The pho came quickly; everything was fresh and tasty! Service was average for your "fast food" restaurant. Great place if you want yummy for your tummy soup. Next time we're trying the BBQ!

Best Pho place in town! I eat here at minimum once or twice a month (because its not so close to my house, and if it were, I'd eat here more!) Clean facility and super fast service. It can get really busy when it's cold and/or rainy, so best to be early on those days. Food is superb and I... More

Very good pho. The portions are large with fresh condiments. I have tried both the rare steak pho and the shrimp pho, both excellent. The the shrimp pho contained an amazing amount of shrimp, not the 4 or 5 shrimp some places serve. Very good value for the money. Can't wait to go again.

Vietnamese food. We eat here about once a week. It's fresh food for a great value. To give you an idea...two people, tea and food...15-20 bucks. The wait staff brings the dishes out as it's made, so one person might get their's before the other. If you like this one, try the other in Vegas-Decatur and Spring Mountain. Quite afew... More

Pho So 1 serves very tasty pho. The service is fast, the pho is authentic, the portions are large, and the condiments perfect. Went there twice this week and may go again tonight. Love it!

I always love Vietnamese food especially the authentic ones. This restaurant can be found in four different cities in Southern California: Simi Valley; Reseda; Van Nuys; Gardena, and one in Las Vegas. We used to go the one in Gardena but just found out there's one very close to home, only 13 minutes of drive. The restaurant is very clean... More

This was my first time trying Vietnamese food. My in-laws love this place and have been trying to get me to try it for a while. I wished I had made time much sooner. From the outside, the place does not look like much right next to the Payless shoe store. Once you walk in you immediately wonder how the... More
