My brother was like yo man do you want to drive to Westminster from the 626 just to get pho and banh mi? I was like okay, sure. Boy howdy, I'm glad we did because phoholic delivered in spades. The wait looked intimidating, but we got seated right away. Protip: don't park in the restaurant parking lot on crowded days, park elsewhere that is willing. Food was served lighting fast and pipping hot. The broth is divine, very meaty, full of flavor with a slight bit of sweetness for an overall well-rounded soup. The flat noodles are also a nice surprise. Even the rare beef steak was tender! The ox-tail piece is large, but a little on the tougher side. The beef rib is tender and oh man filled with so much flavor. Even the soup the beef rib or the tendon rib comes in tastes different from the one in your soup bowl. Additionally using scissors to cut off lumps of tendon or beef meat is a fun activity between guzzling down soup and noodles. I never finish the whole bowl's broth, but I finished my own soup bowl and the broth the beef ribs came in. Un-pho-gettable.
Hands down one of the BEST bowls of pho I’ve ever had. The broth is bursting with flavours that just melt on your tongue.
You also get a LOT for what you pay. Highly recommend! This place was AMAZING! 🔥
OK this is a high pace, quick table turnover place. You're not coming here for ambiance or customer service, you're coming here for the food. Once you sit down, be ready to order. Check the menu while you're waiting for your seat because they waste no time to put your order in. That being said, the pho broth is on point! We got extra ribs on the side but it really wasn't necessary. If you're a big eater, go for it. Otherwise your typical combo bowl is more than enough. It was a 40 min wait on a Sunday lunch hour. Will be back if we're around OC.
