11 Best Vietnamese Restaurants in San Gabriel

“Service is slow. Pay upfront with your ticket number. There was a fly in the free soup they give.... And they took forever to bring another one. They didn't even apologize. - Grilled Pork Chop Broken Rice 4.4/5 The pork chop has good flavor but it was VERY dry and overcooked. Everything else was good. Street parking or market parking.“

“We were craving for some banh xeo (kind of like a savory crepe, if you will) but didn't feel like going to a sit-down restaurant. This is a to-go spot...small space with only about four high top chairs...so definitely a grab n go casual place. The female cashier was friendly and originally, we had our mind set on two orders (boxes) of banh xeo. But she was nice enough to suggest ordering one box and add on the additional $8 for a second piece of banh xeo instead. This was delicious!! Plenty of shrimp & pork...and they don't skim you on portions either. When you wrap the lettuce around, add the carrots, basil and dip that into their house fish sauce.....holy moly...so flavorful and fresh! I love how the crepe was lightly crisped on the edges. Thanks to Yelp for helping me discover Tay Ho.“

“Great service and well made Vietnamese food. Portion sizes are generous and veggies are fresh. I had the bun bo hue and my wife ordered rice with egg rolls and shrimp cakes. Our meals came out together which is rare for Viet establishments, great timing.“

“The best Vietnamese Style Lobster and seafood! Always a long queue to be seated. Get here early for best parking and best seating.“

“Was around the area so decided to grab lunch and it wasn't as great as before. We ordered the seafood egg noodle and seafood white noodle, both lacked flavor. I had to add satay sauce to make it taste a bit better. The ice water glasses were dirty as well. I don't know if it's under new owners or new chefs but it wasn't that great. Good thing it was a cheap lunch.“

“Small free parking lot in the back. It was filled though, so ended up creating my own parking against the wall by the parking lot entrance. This place has been open for so long. I still see one of the ladies that worked there when I was younger, she still looks the same. They have such a vast menu to choose from. Everything we ordered tasted good. The pho noodles are not chewy like I like them, a bit too soft- but there is SO much pho. Portion size is generous. The rice dishes are great. FYI if you order the hot coffee, they bring you the coffee to drip extremely slowly at your table and hot water in a thermos to add to keep dripping more coffee. It's basically a test of patience. You won't get to enjoy your coffee until your meal is about over because it drips so slowly and also it's not hot anymore when it's finally ready. But it's very strong and tasty. Great place for quick meals that caters to the whole family, since they offer so many choices of Vietnamese cuisine (pho, rice, banh mi, bun, beef stew, porridge, banh tam, curry, vegetarian dishes, banh canh, hu tieu, mi etc etc)“

“This place is definitely the better Nha Trang of the two. Their noodles are much more fresh and their drink was a lot better than the yellow building Nha Trang. This place is still one of my favorite pho places. We always get a pho ga and a bun bo hue. The pig blood in their bun bo hue was so juicy and delicious as well.“

“Such a good big portion of Vietnamese cuisine included Allende of foods variety.... Ordering a natural coconut drink and a combination of pork chops, eggs mixtures, tofu skins rice n coming with a house soup of corn n carrots with pork ribs!!! Everything coming so efficient and great services !!! It's good for a family style of sharing foods and even though will make a person so Full because of the big portions!!“

“This is my go to Pho restaurant. Menu is big. The pho is hot and tasty. It also nice that sometimes the lady gives us this dessert after are meal other than that service is so so. Don't expect great service from pho places haha. The remodel is nice, cleaner walls and the floor is not as greasy yet.“

“My go-to banh mi spot. Always willing to make the 17 min drive from Pasadena bc of price point and portions. No seating avail, take out only. I like to order #16 (grilled pork) and an egg roll to eat on the way home just to wet my appetite haha. Protip - Call in your order so it's ready by the time you get there. Usually open holidays. The phone will ring a billion times but I promise they eventually answer :P“

“Was recommended garlic flavored soup with sliced beef. Flat rice noodles was right texture. Beef slices lightly blanched. Meal was accompanied with freshly deep fried spring rolls Thoroughly enjoy it Ample free parking easy to locate“
