Glendale Phở Co.

One of my go-to spots in Glendale when I’m craving pho. The broth is rich and flavorful, and the staff is always super friendly and welcoming. It really hits the spot every time! Only downside is parking — street parking can be tough to find sometimes, and the lot right next to the restaurant is private (not for customers). Best tip? Go on Sundays! Street parking is free then, so it’s way easier

pretty decent bowl of pho. they’ve made the menu really customizable, where you can add up to 3 meats to a bowl of pho. there’s an option for large, regular, and kids size bowl of pho. you can also mix and match the veggie/meat versions of the spring roll and fried roll when you get the combo. service was fast and friendly. i like that they give you scissors if you wanna cut anything.

Glendale Pho Co is a good choice for Vietnamese food in the area. Their soup broth is done well. The flavors are fresh and rich. The aromatics are subtle with fragrance. The noodles are fresh and not overly cooked, unlike many other places. Their meats are also good, with a variety of beef for your Pho, including Brisket, Rare Brisket, and Flank. Of course, you can always choose the standards from a Dac Biet variation and get Tripe. The only item I have not seen on their menu is the availability of tendon. Chicken and Vegetarian options are also available and delivered with equal quality. Vermicelli and Rice dishes are represented, but the star of the show is the Pho. Their Fried Egg Rolls are anemic. Their size resembles Lumpia, but the flavors are good. Spring rolls include the creative addition of Jicama, which I find non-traditional. The service is excellent. Takeaway packaging is done with detail, and the staff is very friendly. The only big concern is the value for what you get. Their pricing is on par with other nearby Vietnamese places, but the protein portions seem to be on a diet.

Tried this place for the first time. We had both beef and seafood pho, with egg rolls, spring rolls, iced tea, and iced coffee. Food was very tasty, the additions gave more flavor, service was excellent. Our waitress was very pleasant and explained the menu patiently and professionally. She even packed the left over pho in to go containers.

I would rate this place as somewhere mid way in the range of all the pho places I've been to. Their broth is ok, a little bit lower than Golden Deli where I would go for Pho. A decent selection of food on their menu. Service is quick. Menu is on a QR code, but you can request a physical copy if you don't want to scan with your phone. There's a sign saying street parking only, but we didn't see that and parked in the lot next door. It was fine and we didn't get towed.

Really great experience. All of the pho’s tasted really great. The hoisin sauce is really really yummy, so I recommend adding it to your pho! the sandwich “binh something” is also tasty. Pho’s sizes, even regular is really huge, so if you want to take a side order (this sandwich for example) and you’re not really really hungry, take kids size pho 😊, it would suit you better. Overall really great food!

Best pho! I’ve been looking for the perfect pho and I found it. The broth is delicious before adding anything to it. I had the chicken pho and the chicken was soft and tender. Service is great, was received with a smile.

Ordered the shrimp-pork rolls, which were good. But the vermicelli dish with egg roll and grilled pork was outstanding. Service was attentive and polite. Parking is a pain - street parking only, and at lunch time it can be a challenge.

The one of the most delicious phos that I have ever tried! Service is perfect ! The atmosphere is great! Highly recommend

I been ordering from them for 1year now. Recently there's been quality issues in both undercooked of the ox tail pho. And while I understand some pho dishes are meant to be a bit under do they cook in the broth this was very different.And not enough meat. This recent delivery I had though DoorDash was the last straw. Serving people beef that is under can get customers sick.

In the hustle and bustle of downtown Glendale lies another hidden gem...which is fitting because it's right across from the formerly known, Jewel City Bowl. You might never know it's there, it's a brick building...on a corner-ish...there's a very difficult parking lot to get into and it turns out you can't even park there. Once you find it, you will know where to get a great banh-mi and a bowl of pho. Walking into Glendale Pho Co, you don't get hit with the aromas of pho and fish sauce. You wouldn't know what kind of food they serve. There's about ten wood tables and if you come at the right time (or the wrong time), you'll see a bunch of people slurping up bowls of pho. Take out or dine in? Sit where you want. We ordered the beef pho (you can add up to three types of meat), chicken pho, pork bahn-mi, and shrimp/pork spring rolls. We also got a thai iced tea and an iced coffee. The latter was more coffee flavor than condensed milk which seems to be the norm. It wasn't sickening sweet...the coffee had a nice bitterness to it, you could taste the coffee, it was good. Onto the food, the beef pho comes in regular and large sizes. I would opt for the regular unless you're really hungry. The pho doesn't come out so hot that you have to wait to eat it. Immediately I dipped the spoon in and stirred it around. On first taste, before I added all the accoutrements, the broth is simply comforting. Warm, flavorful...slightly sweet? It's not the salty, funky broth you're probably used to. I think I prefer the funkier broths versus the cleaner taste they offer, but there's no wrong answer here. The glass noodles are good, the meat is good, the portion size is so filling and worth it. Probably the best compliment I can give someone's pho, I didn't really need to add anything to it. Yeah, it's always great to give it a squeeze of lime and maybe a hit of hoisin or jalapeño, but I don't think I needed to do much to get it to my liking. The spring rolls are what you'd expect. Rice paper, a nice salad in between, some thin slices of pork, and shrimp. The only thing that made this dish slightly disappointing was the peanut sauce...it was more like thin peanut butter and didn't really add much towards the flavor. If the sauce gave that punch of flavor, it'd really set this over the top, but unfortunately it's neither good or bad. The best thing we had though was the bahn mi. The first thing you want from this sandwich is the right kind of bread. The outside is crusty, but not so that you destroy your mouth. It's chewy, squishy, and soft, but can support the sauces and fillings. We got the pork one and it's very sweet and savory. It's a lot of pork too so every bite is filled with flavor. With some banh mis, the veggies kind of overpower the ratios, but in this sandwich it's a lot of meat and bread and I don't really remember the other stuff. You get a half a baguettes worth of sandwich, so a full foot or so and it's only like 10 bucks? While I might want to come here on a cold night for the pho, the banh mi might win me over.

Let's get this started. I'm a big fan of pho, so I decided to give this place a try. I ordered the large combination with meats, minus the tripe. I've tried a lot of pho spots in Hawaii, and while this one was good, it felt pretty average to me. Don't get me wrong.. it was tasty, just doesn't meet my "OMG, this is good" The spring rolls were also good, though a bit on the chewy side. The rice plate was mixed; some pieces were hard, while others were soft. Overall, my experience with the food was good, and I didn't mind it at all. The service was excellent. The staff checked on us frequently to make sure we had everything we needed. I also loved the interior with its bamboo wallpaper finish, which creates a calm and inviting atmosphere.

Nice place to go to if you're looking for decent Vietnamese food. It's not my favorite but would probably be a go to if I'm looking for something within the area. The service here is great. The servers are quick, friendly and attentive. The ambiance of the place is chill and welcoming. I ordered the fresh rolls and c4. Fresh rolls are good and would probably order it again if I'm craving them. The c4 with pork was okay but I would try something else next time. The pork had a weird hard texture to some pieces but the flavor was good. No parking in the lot. Only street parking which is unfortunate if you're coming here on a busy day.

Searching for a nice bowl of soup and came across Glendale pho co Great service seated upon arrival parking is a little weird but you can find metered street parking. I had the chicken pho . The broth was delicious. I wasn't a fan of the dark meat, but overall the flavor was great. We'll go back again.

The best pho in town, excellent broth, clean and great friendly service. It's a small cozy restaurant, during cold weather especially when it's raining it's a perfect meal, but be prepared to wait in line. It gets really busy. Jacob was very nice, attentive, friendly and hardworking.

This hit the spot. I was craving pho for the longest and it was so yummy. The service was also very quick in here. It's a cute little pho spot. I would come again!

Found this place online when I was craving pho, and it did not disappoint! It's a pretty small restaurant and it filled up at lunchtime on a Saturday. The portion size for the regular bowl of pho is huge so I got the kids size. Veggie pho can be hit or miss, but this one was really good. The broth had good flavor and there were a lot of veggies included.

Had the oxtail pho, pork banh mi, and spring rolls. Oxtail pho portion was kinda small, but it tasted really good. The banh mi and the spring rolls are standard. Service was a bit slow, but they're nice. Parking is meter only, can't park at the lot next to the shop.

Love this place and is one of my regular go-to spots. They also don't use MSG and they have Ox tail which not all pho places have.

Fantastic banh mi here! I made a pretty large order for my group of people (about 8 people on 7/14/24) and we all had varying likes and dislikes of ingredients included in a banh mi. When I called to make a take out order, the gentleman on the phone was super friendly and took down all our requests for our modifications and made sure they were followed to a T! The only thing that is a trad frustrating about this restaurant is the funky way of getting into their parking lot. It's not a super big deal, but it's just a bit inconvenient. Overall, great Banh Mi!

Food is always good here. Been going here for 15 years and it's always tasty and friendly service.

This review is solely based on my chicken pho experience Parking: no parking lot, only street parking. It's difficult because some streets require permits, so you really have to check. Service: Servers are very nice, but didn't really check up on me while I was eating. The food came out very fast. Food: The chicken pho was okay, nothing to write home about. I love to eat chicken pho without any addition of hoisin sauce or Sriracha, so it's very important to me that the broth can stand on its own. Overall, it's an okay place, but I don't really see myself coming back here.

The service is quick. The beef pho, spring rolls, and a banh mi my go to order. All flavorful and fresh.

Best Banh Mi sandwich I've ever had! The bread was baked fresh and the presentation was incredible! The server was very polite and sweet to us! I really enjoyed the beef broth flavor was so delicious! New spot to revisit for delicious pho and sandwiches!

5 star food. 5 star service. 5 star prices. Pho Co makes me a very happy boy. The Banh mi is one of the best in the city and the egg rolls are generously filled and fried to perfection every time. Every time! A very friendly neighborhood joint!

The food was fantastic (as always). The pho is delicious. The service is excellent - they are super welcoming.

Great Everytime I'm hung over and want veggie pho this place delivers and I forget the shit I did the night before.

This was a tiny spot that I swung by on the way from the mall because hankering for pho. It was minimal parking and even less seating so it was fortunate that I was ordering to go. I placed the order on the phone in the parking lot and by the time I parked and entered the food was nearly ready. Pho was good and held up well on the ride back home and I also ordered a vermicelli bowl with pork and egg rolls which also surprisingly retained the crunchy fried goodness. I would def return if in the area. Good pho spots are hard to find in the valley.

I've been coming here I think since 2014 or 2015 and I have brought so many of friends and family to try it out and everyone fell in love with the food. The service is good though it was way better prior to covid but seems like thats the trend everywhere. If you want good pho this is the spot to go.

I love the food here, it's always consistent and service is excellent. Prices are avg as well. Parking is on the street but there's plenty.

Food was delicious. I ordered a vermicelli rice noodles with pork, egg rolls, and shrimp. Not only did I order that, I ordered a pork bahn mi sandwich (which is shareable bc it's huge) & the 2 spring rolls / 2 egg rolls. Ordered for pick up on DoorDash & couldn't wait to eat it once I got home. Will definitely order here again since summer is coming up I was craving something light and refreshing. This will be my go-to order from now on.

Do not order a large. There is no difference between the regular and large sizes, according to the worker, except for the amount of broth; the portions of noodles and meat remain the same.

This place is our go to spot for a cozy feel good meal right when the weather drops 1 degree under 70 lol Great service, and yummy pho! I always get the seafood pho and leave very happy. Ask for chili oil if you like some spice, and add a teaspoon for a nice kick :)

I remember when this restaurant was new. It was good. The quality of this place has drastically declined. Even the basil, bean sprouts that you put in the soup are gross. They do not look fresh. Broth has no flavor. The meat balls you get in the soup are cut from 2 beef balls to make it look a lot. This place has turned into a joke and it show as this place is never busy anymore. Pho Hot on san fernando is glendales best pho now. Everything is fresh and the servings are excellent. Try Pho hot and see how it compares to Glendale Pho.

This place used to be one of the better places to eat pho at. Haven't had it in a while and this last time I went was just terrible. Spring and egg rolls had no flavor, pho came out room temperature and again lacking in flavor. And my Thai iced just literary tasted like harsh black tea lol. The 2 waiters both looked like they wanted to kill themselves. Won't be going back there.

Glendale Pho Co is hands down one of the best spots for Vietnamese cuisine in the area. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The service is always prompt and friendly, making you feel right at home. But the star of the show is the food - the pho is flavorful and rich, with perfectly balanced broth and fresh ingredients. Their spring rolls are a must-try too! Whether you're a pho enthusiast or new to Vietnamese food, Glendale Pho Co never disappoints.

Came here on a Thursday during the lunch rush. The place was completely full (which I saw as a good sign) so we had to put our name down and wait about 10 min until a table opened up. Our order was taken quickly and our food came out timely. I got the veggie pho and a Thai iced tea. Veggie Pho - Super delicious! Lots of noodles, veggies, and broth. The veggies included mushrooms, carrots, broccoli, and tofu. I loved how tender all the of the veggies were! Great tasting broth too. Thai iced tea - Not too sweet!! They've found the perfect balance of sweetness and I was all there for it!! Al thought the interior is small, it has a good amount of tables and it was great to see the place packed. Prices were super reasonable and the service was efficient! This is definitely going to be a new pho go to spot for me

A favorite little spot! The chicken pho ga and the bun thit xao were super tasty and under $20, which is a great value! My pho was enough to take home and have the next day too, so even better! The service was kind when we entered with smiles and quick responses. The utensils and cups were pops of color and the whole place was clean and comfy. Parking is a small lot on the corner, but with more street parking (metered) or neighborhood parking with a light walk. Definitely a good spot for a cozy meal!

Ordered to go coming from the bar next door. The service was okay, pretty busy and not clear direction when I was placing a to go order. The place was a little crowded with the setup and the energy was iffy. The food won me over though. Egg rolls and spring rolls were fresh and full of flavor. Worth the wait!

Great food, friendly service, clean and well priced. Did I mention that the food is delicious! Highly recommend this place. This was my first time here and I will most definitely return.

This place closed 8:30 when you get there 8:05 order to go the kitchen is closed don't waste your time drive over there before you call and make sure kitchen is open.

Great hidden gem. Fresh ingredients and tasty dishes. Nice portions. Customer Service is also excellent. The servers were attentative and very welcoming. Kristine was wonderful!

Always the best Pho and friendliest service! Intimate, friendly vibe inside, a very limited parking lot but plenty of street parking.

I'll start with the staff: probably the friendliest servers and hosts I've had at a Pho restaurant. Which admittedly isn't something I really think about when I get pho. The soup (most important) and the noodles (next most important) were good. That said, the meat was really lacking. The meatballs were okay. The rare steak was not at all rare. It was overcooked and not good, and there was barely any, just a few small bits. But the worst was the flank. I actually spit out a piece because I thought a piece of plastic or rubber was in my soup. When I realized what it was, I avoided the rest of it, which was easy because there were just two other pieces of flank meat. One tiny and one strangely, bizarrely large (like it got past the cook somehow). Like I said, the staff were nice. Would probably not return.

This place is very consistent and when I order to-go it's usually ready within 10 - 15 minutes (amazing). Best pho I've ever had. When you dine-in the restaurant you have to sign your name on a clipboard and wait outside, which honestly kinda sucks because most of the time when you're eating pho it's cold outside!! Lol!! Nonetheless, it makes your pho that much better once you do get inside at the table. The parking is a little tricky because the restaurant is located on the corner of a very busy intersection, Glendale Avenue and Broadway. There is metered parking right in front or you can park on a residential street located directly behind the restaurant. All the workers are very friendly, and this place is always busy! Great job to this Vietnamese restaurant!!

Got take out from here and ordered B4. Pork, shrimp and egg roll in my noodle bowl! Loved the egg rolls, I should have gotten an extra side order. There were order 3 shrimps in my bowl though so I will prob just stick with pork only next time. I will be back- overall pretty good!

When ordering pho from here consider ordering the regular size pho since it's a pretty decent about and it's $15, if you want a larger size it'll be $16, but personally the regular size was good for my partner and I. We ordered the vegetarian pho which was flavorful and the tofu banh mi was tasty too.

This place has become my go-to pho place in Glendale. I've tried three different locations and they by-far have the best vegetarian broth. Staff are super friendly, broth is amazing, good set of toppings for the veggie pho -- not much else to ask for. They've also been very good with timing. I ordered takeout: they estimated 45 min and were ready when I arrived 45 min later. 10/10 recommend. Great work y'all.

Not worth it for the price (15.50). The pho is ehh but the Thai iced tea is really good for some reason. I'm still hungry. California Seafood Grill has some amazing stuff though, it's only about a block down.

I was merely compelled to choose this phoa spot as this was the most accessible in the area. Our group of 5 got seated after a few minutes & placed our orders right away. We tried their Pho Dac Biet where rice noodles were boiled well but the meat such as brisket, rare steak, tripe & flank were so limited & the broth was a little salty. The Pho Do Bien (seafood) with rice noodles was described in the menu to have squid, imitation crab, shrimp and fish balls but were almost invisible in the bowl. Fried Egg Rolls for 4 pieces came in warm & crunchy but the taste was just average. Our server though a rookie deserved a praise for he tried his best to deliver everything that we needed from start to finish. Parking was a struggle unless you find a slot along the street.

Best pho in Glendale!! The workers are nice and its usually pretty chill inside. 100% recommend, super delicious!

This is officially my favorite pho spot! Went about four times in a span of two weeks, and took my best friend for his first ever time trying this food! He loved it! And he's super picky, so I know it must've been really good lol The place is really small and cute, and service has always been great, only once I went in, and was told oh, sit wherever you want, and then, when I did, they moved me to a smaller table, because the bigger tables were for big groups only, but then a group of two walked in when we were still there, they sat them in the same table we had attempted to sit, so that wasn't that great, but I don't want to put the blame on the location, because again the food is great and every other time I've gone to service has been amazing. Will definitely be returning soon.

The service was excellent, and I thoroughly enjoyed the chicken pho and delicious egg rolls. However, the pork sandwich was disappointing--it was essentially all bread with barely any meat.

Glendale Pho Co seemed like a promising find after my recent visit to another local pho spot that served horrible pho. Unfortunately this restaurant (to be fair) is on the smaller side and during rush hour are not friendly towards "party of one". Better to bring a group of people to get seated and considered... yes considered as human and treated fairly. In short, if you are a "party of one" dinning alone don't come here during rush hour - whenever that is. From a business perspective, I get the concept of accommodating a larger party for profit; however, HONEST communication is also important. I was given the run around on wait time; sent back and forth to wait outside ( my fault I should have left). I called the restaurant and ask if I should come in or go elsewhere since I was on their waitlist and did not hear back. The waiter invited me back into the restaurant and said the table was ready- ok no problem ( I been waiting 15 mins at this point). I walk into the restaurant and the original waiter that I dealt with pointed to a table for me to be seated at - than his co-worker (another waiter guy) stops me from seating and gives that table up to another solo diner ( she seemed agitated vs my polite demeanor)... So at this point am uncomfortable. Not to mention both waiters are bickering at each other on who is first... enters the owner I assume. She immediately tried to fix the problem (which I appreciated) - owner lady says , " I will clear a table for you right away, pls wait outside" ( I again, should have left). What can I say I was already there so I waited... Basically waited for another 25 minutes while other larger parties walk in and got a tables! At this point I realize that the owner lady just tried to brush me off and didn't prepare or clear off a table as promised- no hard feelings as I finally left... my problem wasn't the wait time, the problem was lack of communication and total disregard of the customer (me). The owner could have been honest about the wait instead of saying she was clearing a table for me and didn't deliver. Never coming back no matter how good your food may be!

It was a rainy Saturday and our favorite place was closed so we thought we'd give this Pho place a try. We ordered 3 pho soup with steak and brisket and picked it up. If you want to park on the street, be sure to bring coins with you because oddly enough, the parking lot in this establishment has a sign that says do not park. First thing we noticed when we opened the plastic container that the meat (steak and brisket) were super thinly sliced and on one container there's only 3 slices of brisket. You gotta remember this place is charging you for $16 for their soup. With this little amount of meat you get, it is definitely pricey and not worth the money. Broth has little beef flavor, the noodles were not your typical thin soft rice Vietnamese noodles. Even the vegetables that go with it is not a lot. I will not recommend this place and I won't be coming back.

Is this place under new ownership? I've been coming here since they first opened and over the last few months, I've seen the quality of the food deteriorate. The pho isn't nearly as rich as it used to be and it's also superrrrrr oily. The last few times I ordered from here I've had to skim the oil from the broth.

Great service. The staff was attentive and brought out everything we needed for our family dinner. The menu is all via QR code but the wait staff will take your order so you don't have to submit the order online. Parking was easy to find on the street. Pho is nice to have on a cold fall day. Fried egg rolls are a nice app too.
