Phở Quang Trung 1

Worst customer service!! I called in to place an order and pay by phone. The guy wouldn’t take my order by phone. He said I had to go online. So I went online placed my order and paid and received an order number. In the comment section, I noted that My Son Richard will be picking up the order. Richard goes in person to pick up the order and provides the order number And the same guy insisted that Richard give him my name, phone number, and the last four digits of the card I paid with. Then he’s asking my son how to spell my name. That went on for five minutes because the guy didn’t understand English. Same thing when he asked My Son to keep repeating my phone number. That went on for about three minutes.Then the guy calls me to ask me if I authorize my son Richard to pick up the order and I explained to him that I put it in the notes. He was just playing a stupid game. By the time my son got his food, it was cold.

I like it here because I don't drink water after eating noodles. The food here is good because it's not salty. And the desserts here in particular are fantastically delicious. 😍😍😍😍 And, They are very friendly, 🤗🤗🤗👍

The cha ca was good, but bun cha Ha Noi was super sweet. The che they gave out complementary was also sour so we didn’t eat it.

Took my son and we both ordered large bowls. The bowls were BIG!!! Delicious

Holly moly wakamole this place is so good pho is so tasty very very good and the Vietnamese breakfast delicious 🤤 very great 👍

For a cheap price, you can get a lot! I liked the chicken wings because of the amount of garlic put in. The view outside was interesting too.

Odered Pho Ga here. Tastes nothing like pho. Will not come back again

Vietnamese noodles soup. They have Phở beef, and you can customize the difference in the bowl.

Tasty and great portion foods. We love coming to this place whenever we can. Service is okay but the food is delicious. Great options of dishes.

Best secret local spot for pho ga (chicken pho) in town! There's something about the both and the fresh chicken that tastes absolutely amazing. Also, you can get chicken thigh dark meat or chicken breast with skin or without skin or on the side. Whatever and however you like your pho and chicken they will make it fresh for you. I've been coming here for years. It's a hole in the wall, it's messy and it's absolutely delicious! The fried chicken wings are also one of my favorite dish as well! All are traditional Vietnamese dishes and very good! I would say they specialize in chicken but you can order anything on the menu and it will be good! There are not a lot of parking and not a lot of seating area - again hole in the wall. The staff speaks mostly Vietnamese and English of course. They will most likely have Vietnamese TV on which is always entertaining. They take cash and credit.

Been going here forever. Solid Vietnamese food especially the chicken pho, fried spring rolls and bun cha. I don't think we've ever had any negative experiences with the food here. The staff really do try to be accommodating and friendly. We do prefer the other location on Bolsa ave as sometimes this location has some sketch folks around the corner.

Stepping into Quang Trung Restaurant feels like entering a haven of authentic Vietnamese cuisine, where cherished family recipes have been lovingly served for over 20 years. This isn't just a meal--it's a journey through the heart of Vietnamese culinary tradition. This casual gem is a savior for the hangry souls out there. Need a quick fix for your hunger pangs without sacrificing flavor? Quang Trung is your go-to spot, delivering both speed and taste in every dish. Now, onto the feast we enjoyed: Imperial Deep-Fried Eggrolls: A personal favorite that never disappoints. Each bite is a crispy burst of flavor, making it hard to stop at just one. Fish Sauce Glazed Chicken Wings: These wings redefine finger-licking goodness. The perfect balance of sweet and savory keeps you reaching for more. Crispy Fried Rice Flour Cake with Egg: Another one of my favorites, this dish is a crispy delight with a satisfyingly eggy and chewy at the same time. It's comfort food at its finest. Filet Mignon Shaking Beef with French Fries: Tender beef paired with crispy fries--need I say more? This dish is a match made in culinary heaven. Fried Turmeric Flavored Fillet Catfish with Hanoi-style Grilled Pork: A true adventure for the taste buds! This dish is not just delicious; it's an experience. Each bite tells a story of flavors dancing in perfect harmony. Phở Tái Chin Bo Vien: A classic done right. The rich broth, tender meat, and fresh herbs create a symphony of flavors that warm the soul. Thai Iced Tea: A refreshing companion to the bold flavors of the meal. It's the perfect balance of sweetness and spice. Vietnamese Egg Coffee: A sweet finale to an unforgettable meal. Creamy, indulgent, and oh-so-satisfying. Quang Trung Restaurant isn't just about the food--it's about the memories created around the table, the flavors that transport you to another world, and the warm hospitality that makes you feel like family.

I have been eating here at least once a month for the last 10+ years, and I'm really struggling why they are so declined in popularity. Years ago it was always packed every time I went, but since Covid hit it seems to be becoming a distant memory to the community here. It's not like quality has gone down, they still have - in my opinion - the best Pho Ga you can get anywhere. Their Com Tam and Bun Cha Ha Noi are also my two favorites here. The interior could use some work though, it is a bit run down and their decor is like an Asian buffet gone wrong.

This is our go to place now for pho and old-school, savory. The owner and the service are always polite and greet us like we are family. The service is excellent with a smile. The chicken pho is very good as my family are picky about how tender the chicken needs to be. They always get their chicken just right, super tender. As for the beef pho, solid. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

I ordered the C8 pho with brisket and flank. It was good. But when I ordered the egg rolls, the lettuce that came with it had bugs on it. I was iffy using the utensils. The spoons, forks, and napkin container were a little dirty.

Very nice staffs but foods were not that good! Worst Vietnamese food ever! We were so hungry so we ate some but very hard to swallow. Very different style of cooking. Have no taste what so ever, very disappointed! Sorry just being honest.

I was craving Mien gà. I came here and I love it. Within a few minutes of ordering, my boiling hot Mien ga came out. You pay an extra $3 for the gizzards but it was worth it. I would have given it a five stars, but I don't think their fish sauce was that good. Also, I asked to have the chicken on the side but they threw it in the soup. And don't order the soybean drink. I don't know what brand they used but it was terrible. They redecorate the place so it's not as outdated as before.

Looking for some authentic Vietnamese food that you've NEVER had before? Look no further than Pho Quang Trung 1 in Garden Grove, California. It's a restaurant that's stood the test of time, and I've been coming here since I was a smaller version of me right now. Sure it may have Pho in the name, and the pho is tasty, but that's not what we get here. Check this out. We ordered the Bun Cha Hanoi, which is like a vermicelli bowl served with a plate of greens and a bowl of grilled pork and pork sausage marinated in a sweet fish sauce. Grab your noodles, tear the greens up, splash some sauce in there, and mix it up. If you've never had these flavors before, prepare yourself. Sweet and salty never tasted so good. The grilled pork is incredible, giving that excellent meaty texture to your bite. The charred flavor is unmatched when it comes to grilled meats. My favorite is the pork sausage. It's tender and juicy, especially after sitting in that delicious fish sauce marinade. This bite is so unbelievable. Crazy scrum-diddly-umptious :P

I use to hit up this Pho spot back in my early 20s. Lets just say I am no longer in my 20s. Anywhoo, it was just decent back then, but now, so much has changed since then and it has been a great experience. The daughter of the owners has taken over and up everything on the menu by 100% the food and presentation taste so much better and she's focused on providing better service. She is constantly working hard to keep this restaurant alive and we should all come out to support it. My mom had the pho and she enjoyed it very much. She ate it all by herself and didn't let me try it. hmmm... I thought we were sharing like family style...guess not haha. She mentioned she would definitely come back to eat the pho and other dishes. My mom...she doesn't really like to eat out much. She is so old fashion that she will always say, I can make that for you instead. It was a damn struggle for me to get her out for lunch to go here. But struggle no more. Now that I mention this place, she will be willing to go. My niece also tried pho bo and she enjoyed it. We ordered the kids size and wow, they load it up! A lot of noodles and beef! My niece loved it so much, she gave it a thumbs up. We also ordered spring rolls because I had the cravings for it. My niece loves spring rolls too and couldn't wait for me to finish taking pictures so she can have a whole roll to herself. She ate that up real quick. My sister had the Bun Bo Hue. While their chili satay wasn't spicy for us, but the flavor of the broth is delicious. She mentioned that her fiancé would love that dish. because of the owners recommendation, I had the opportunity to try two new dishes that I have never ate before. FYI - I went to eat here more than once, I am just reviewing my whole experience during all those times. I did not eat everything in one day lol first new dish: Cha Ca Thang - I definitely didn't grew up eating this at all, but wow, it is so good! The herbs they used in the fish is so strong but flavorful. Don't mind the stinky sauce, it's delicious. second new dish: this is not really my first time trying it, but I haven't ate it in years! Bun Cha aka traditional Vietnamese meatballs that is packed with flavors. I got to try their egg vietnamese coffee. Yummy. if you're fan of the egg coffee try it out. Try it everywhere and let me know where your favorite egg coffee at

We have to stop by this place for Pho every time we are in Garden Grove. Pho was excellent. The meat was better quality than years ago. I haven't had this authentic tasted pho in a long time. I usually dont drink the broth but it was so good and not salty that I drank all in my bowl. They especially have "vè dòn" (crunchy flank, thick skirt flank) that my mom eat. She hasnt found any other place that made it as good. They renovated the place, it looks much better now. Still our #1 place for pho.

My go to place for Pho Ga. It's no frills but it's solid. Has great options like fresh pho noodles and gizzards. They also give u free Che for dessert.

They don't take Amex nor apple pay. Don't believe what they put at their door. It's a lie. Done with this place. Filthy place. I'm done.

Service was okay not bad but not good. Food was raw. I got the garlic noodles with roasted chicken breast. Garlic noodles were only warm on the outside in the middle they were cold. Roasted Chicken breast was cold and raw from the center as shown in the photo. Food was not well cooked. Came out 4 min after order was placed.

We were out of town and saw this place and decided to give it a try. We were highly disappointed. The service was horrible. The place was filthy and smells like a funeral home. We thought maybe the food would make it worth it but we were wrong, portion size was small and tasted bland. They also only turn on the AC when the customer walked in to be seated. I don't normally write reviews but this one deserves one. It's absolutely appalling how they have some five stars reviews. Do yourself a favor and eat elsewhere!!

They have the best bun cha Hanoi here . I been to other spots that are mainly Hanoi restaurants but this is the best .

Nha hang nay sao do ban qua vay ? tinh toi an ma thay hinh va review muon oi , sao khong ai report cho Health Department ?

So I found out, I don't like Pho. Didn't know that before I visited this restaurant; however, I know it now. First, this restaurant seems to be very popular. And for good reason. The people are really very nice. The customers seem to know each other and are also very friendly. I actually like this restaurant. The egg rolls are great. And I am happy I tried the Pho. If I go back, I'll try something a little different. The food portions are very generous. I feel the value is there and you won't go wrong eating here if you like pho. Enjoy!

This place is the worst of the worst, there was flies everywhere!! The health department need to shut this place down asap. I will never be back!!!! See pictures of flies on the bottle...

Little Saigon area should named " Pho Land". Among ton of Pho restaurants around here. This is my favorite place for Pho. Phở bò(beef) or phở gà(chicken) soup and meat are delicious. Portion are big too. My wife and kids love their's com sướng nướng( rice with pork chop), mì xào giòn (crunchy fry seafood noodle) and I think they made the best bún chả hà nội. At the end of each meal they always give a free small bowl of sweet black bean desert too. The place is roomy and kinda old but service is friendly and fast.

The large pho was actually pretty large. The place was pretty clean but the Thai tea tasted a bit weird to me, it might just be a different tea than what I'm used to

I drive 30 minutes to this place (and the other location on Bolsa Ave) specifically for one thing: chicken pho (pho ga). I specifically get the white meat chicken separate from the soup (beef broth). It comes with some type of dipping sauce (I think it's a mixture of garlic and fish sauce) -- amazing! Like most authentic restaurants in Westminster, it's a hit or miss on the service. As long as you know what to expect service-wise, you won't be disappointed. Be friendly and enjoy the food! They also have a location on Bolsa Ave -- the quality is consistent between both locations!

Pork chops are amazing. You get two giant delicious chops the size of a steering wheel Pho and bun bo hue are good

Definitely not a place you'd venture out to try unless you were recommended by a friend - which I was by my boyfriend, who took me here for the first time almost 2 years ago. I say this because Pho Quang Trung is located in a cramped, slightly broken down parking lot, and is up to the cleanliness standards of any authentic Vietnamese restaurant - if you catch my drift. However, this has become a staple in our Orange County trips for food! I've always come here with my boyfriend or along with his family, besides one visit when I came with my sisters. My boyfriend and his family do speak Vietnamese, so I never had too much of a hassle worrying about ordering. However, the one time I did come with my sisters, I had to use my limited knowledge of Vietnamese and my insight to what food I had before here to guide us through. They do speak English, but it can be hard to communicate for the more specific orders. I ALWAYS get Pho Ga Uc (Chicken Breast Rice Noodle Soup) with no organs and no skin. They do list this option in English on the menu, but this is one of those details that would be easier done if you knew Vietnamese - I never tried asking in English but I'm sure they know what you're referring to as its on the Menu. Pho Ga Uc (S - $5.75): The main thing I always look for in noodle soups is a great broth - and Pho Quang Trung does not disappoint. I rarely have to add any Hoisin or Sriracha as the broth is so clean and flavorful as is. If anything, I do add in a squeeze of lime to give it a little more zest, but its honestly perfect alone in my opinion. I also love getting the thicker noodles, which is another option you can change in your order. They serve the Pho with this Garlic Fish Sauce that you dip your Chicken pieces in - SO DELICIOUS!! I add a little chili paste to give it some spice, but everything is really amazing even if you left it alone. They also automatically serve you a free dessert which is Sweet Red Bean Soup - you can always decline if you don't want to waste it, but if you don't say anything, they will place it on your table.

This place hit the spot after a long trip. My girlfriend and I ordered the pho ga. The pho is nothing special, but it does the job. I know what I want out of pho and this restaurant delivers on that front. If you want to get a good pho, I recommend this spot.

I always come here when I crave their stir fried noodles with beef because I can't get over how good it is and my boyfriend loves their pho and it comes out fast. My parents don't really like this place but I do because I always get the same thing to eat every time and it never disappoints. There are so many other things they have here, they have rice dishes that I usually get, there's the charbroiled pork chop or their KBBQ short ribs but I'm not so sure if they have that one on the menu anymore but everything else is good

This place has the best service and deserve to have more people know about it. Their portion is huge!!! Every items were delicious and quality.

Came here to have a bowl of Phở Vè Dây (thick brisket) and was disappointed because the large bowl had the most broth, less noodles, only a few pieces of beef brisket which were pretty tough. The broth was bland, not tasty at all. Compared to Quang Trung restaurant on Bolsa Ave, the other one was much much better bowl at everything tastier broth, much more noodles, many more tender brisket. I should stick with Quang Trung restaurant on Bolsa ave.

Delicious food, great prices. Our favorite place to eat pho. Generous portions and plenty of meat. Fast service. Coming back again.

For me this is the no frills mom and pop Vietnamese restaurant. Don't come here expecting amazing service, basically they take your order, get your drinks and leave you alone until the end of your meal where you end up walking to the front to pay which is very normal and I expect it. I've been going here for a long time and a kid with my mom and dad whenever they want chicken pho and sometimes I still crave it today. What I love is the simplicity of their pho ga. The broth is clean and flavorful, noodles are chewy and the chicken is so moist and tender! I usually get thigh meat because I love the taste but the breast is very moist as well. And especially when you dip it into the garlic ginger fish sauce it's phenomenal. That sauce literally is my favorite thing about chicken pho. Along with chicken pho they have a variety of other dishes that are pretty good as well. I usually get their pho ap chao which is deep fried rice noodles topped with stir fried meat and vegetables so the sauce adds a nice contrast to the crispy noodles. I do believe they could add more sauce but it's not a big deal. At the end they give you a complementary red bean dessert. If you don't want you can always decline it as well. This restaurant is definitely a little hidden gem in Little Saigon.

For those who know true authentic & traditional Vietnamese food, this may be worth a try. Their egg rolls are extra crispy & battered, comes with a small portion of bun (noodles). I ordered also their charbroiled pork chops which were very flavorful. The menu is very large to give you plenty of traditional Vietnamese dishes to choose from.

We were hungry and craving for pho bo so we decided to give this place a try for pho. We were disappointed in the taste and quality of the pho ga. However, the pho chin was decent. The pho ga's meat was not pho ga di bo but regular chicken and the meat was tasteless. The meat of the chicken was bland and tasteless. The broth of the pho ga tasted kind of weird and did not taste like the regular flavor of pho ga. It tasted kind of sweet to me. On the other side, the pho chin was decent. They nailed the flavor of pho bo. Other places make it either too sweet or bland. However, did this place has decent pho broth. Yet, the meat was kind of tough to eat. We also had pho ap chao and it tasted kind of like rad na texture. The consistency of the noodles were not there. I would come back only for the pho chin. There are other places that serve better pho ga around the area.

This Pho Quang Trung on Westminister is the earlier closing sister restaurant of the Pho Quang Trung on Bolsa which I reviewed years before. There are some differences between the two. Here an oval dish of limes, jalapeño pepper, bean sprouts, pungent Vietnamese basil are put on the table as soon as you order. Excellent Cha Gio/fried egg rolls at the Bolsa branch are packed w/ thin glass noodles, dense, rough ground, spiced pork, carrots, onions & garlic. The fried skin is thicker, tougher, more rustic in feel, & breaking open of the roll releases a garlicly, black peppery, Nuoc Mam/fish sauce infused spiced aroma. But the Westminister version has the filling far more ground & minced, and the filling is more lightly packed so it doesn't have that rustic feel. There is less of a satisfying meatiness. However, West Minister's Com Bo Luc Lac/shaking beef & rice, I feel, is superior. The filet mignon cubes seem marinated in oyster sauce, nuoc mam/fish sauce, quick sautéed along with bits of onion & tons of strong smelling earthy, sulfurous, funky garlic. This smelly, pleasant fragrance is more pronounced here. Slivers of raw onions are a good contrast to the meatiness of the beef which is plush, but w/a pleasing soft chaw. Rice is a good bland counter contrast. The Bo Luc Lac is better than at Newport Tang Cang and infinitely better than the one at rip off restaurant, Little Sister in Manhattan Beach, that supposedly serves "fusion" Vietnamese to a mostly non-Vietnamese clientele. Another difference, complimentary free sweet red Azuki bean soupy dessert comes in a small bowl. Lightly sweet, it's a comforting end to the meal. So there are trade offs in going to either Pho Quang Trungs. It's like a choice between Sylla & Charybdis. It depends on which you like better. 4- Yelp stars if you favour the savory, fragrant Bo Luc Lac.

Good foods, good services. Like bún chả Hà Nội, cơm tấm sườn nướng ngon, come back again.

Decent experience. It's been years since I've been back. Their chicken pho is still good. I always ask for the chicken leg meat though. There's a small outdoor section too if you're still not comfortable with Sittin inside. My goto order here is always the chicken pho and the egg rolls. The egg rolls are huge, share this! They still give complimentary che (Asian dessert); usually black bean flavor. Card/cash both accepted.

I barely write any review but I have to say something for this restaurant. My new favorite Pho restaurant to go!!! We got Pho Ga and Pho Bo which were both authentically delicious ( I liked pho ga better). Service was surprisingly excellent. I have been to many Vietnamese restaurants and I have to say I never really content with Vietnamese restaurant's service. But here everyone was so friendly and nice (Often I found middle age or old servers kinda rude or unfriendly). The food came out so fast ( i mean it's fresh and not come out from microwave ) I enjoyed the atmosphere as well. They used fans instead of ACs which reminded me so much of Vietnam. They do offer free sweet dish which is also a bonus. Definitely will come back!

We got the pho ap chao and pho ga. Honestly the food was alright, but what was really unsettling was during our meal we saw a cricket/roach climbing up the wall next to us and then it quickly made its way on our table next to our plates... We were nearly finished with our food so after that we just paid and left.

My family and I tried the following dishes: 1) pho xao (stir fry pho) 2) com tam thit nuong 3) fried chicken with fish sauce 4) complimentary che dau The thit nuong For the com tam thit nuong, they use slice pork belly. I feel for thit nuong the suitable meat for that should be pork cutlets or pork chops but not really pork belly slices. Pork belly slices are suitable for bun cha Hanoi. Overall not bad. Heard this restaurant are owned and run by south vietnamese soldiers veterans (salute for their service during the vietnam war). Good restaurant overall and earned a 4 out of 5 from me.

Phở gà was bland and tasteless. $14 a bowl of tasteless watery broth and 5 tiny pieces of chicken. It's totally not worth it. Very disappointed.

Food: 4 stars**** This is my first time trying chicken pho and it was fantastic! After all, this is what they're known for. The broth was light and flavorful and you can have the option of regular or flat noodles. It definitely tasted healthier and less heavy than beef pho. In addition, you can request skin on/off, liver, heart, tendon, dark/white meat. I really enjoyed the egg rolls here. They were larger with more meat and other ingredients. I really liked how the included noodles on the side to include in the lettuce wrap with the egg roll. Service: 2 stars** This place isn't very efficient and the language barrier posed a problem since we didn't speak Vietnamese. We asked for two orders of egg rolls, but he only wrote as one order. When asked where our other order of egg rolls were, he said that it was coming and it would take 15-20 minutes as it was busy. I was thinking, why would it take 15-20 minutes when we ordered 2 orders of egg rolls at the same time? Turns out he didn't tell the kitchen to bring out the order because we never got it. The timing of the food wasn't great. The egg roll appetizer came out way after we got our entrees and 2 of us got our chicken pho order like 10 minutes before the other 2 people in our party got their vermicelli bowls.

Management/owner needs to clean up this place! Really wonder how they pass the health code. The tables, chairs, booths, floor, windows are filthy. Even the condiment bottles are disgusting.

This place deserve ZERO stars too bad I can't. Worst service ever! I just picked up my family from vacation. They were jetlagged exhausted and hungry and I was hungry AF and tire but they hadn't had good Vietnamese food in 2 weeks and wanted some decent pho. First off the waiter was rude AF and got our order wrong but he argued insisting that he gave us what we order and my sister said to the waiter that it doesn't matter that we don't want the pho ga and if he can bring out pho bo. Then when they brought out our pho ga my mom's bowl was filled with uncooked chicken meat, we mention it to the waiter and he said of that's how the chicken color is, if that was the cause why wasn't mine or my sister meat chicken. He didn't even take the time to look at the meat he just said oh that's how it is and stormed off, like wtf kind of service is that. If you are looking for food poisoning or like eating uncook chicken with a sprinkle of c as in crude service this is the place. Guy never look our way again and didn't bring the check, had to go up and pay. My sister brought the chicken up to cashier since she looks like the manager and one of the customer was there as was like yeah thats uncooked chicken. My family will never be coming here again and my poor mom couldn't have a decent meal at this point she just want to come home and rest (she's 72 and sickly and needs her med) We went and pick some food to go on the way home.

First time back since covid, what the hell happened to this place?? They redecorated the upholstery, which is all well and good, but I didn't come to admire the couches. The menu is one double-sided page now. It used to be like a book. They have two sizes: Small and large. Small should be renamed "kids size" and the large is not much better. Their pho used to be the best place in town, size XL bowls and would get so full that I couldn't walk out properly. The bill was $20, I left hungry and very disappointed. I almost went to Carls Jr next door just to top-off. Oh well.

The pho broth over here is ridiculously flavorful and delicious. The hospitality was friendly and the service was definitely quick... one of the best soups I've ever eaten

This place is awesome!! I love their vermicelli with egg rolls. I missed them last week, maybe it was late but this place is my go to place to get my vermicelli craving.

Fast reliable and fairly good food with Big portions at a price under $10 Bucks!! Very few parking spaces allotted to this restaurant compared to the other business that are open here. Why 3 stars ??? Not the best location and not the best pho restaurant in town either, I would rate this place as mediocre with average to low price point for the Vietnamese community. Their restrooms can sometimes be locked due to flooding or backup of the plumbing problems. Customers will have to go somewhere else to wash their hands and use the toilet. This is quite unsatisfactory and needs to be reviewed by the consumer affairs office today. Otherwise Pho Quang Trung has a long history of good service and good food at a reasonable price and centrally located in Little Saigon Community of Orange County.

Tasty food at affordable price. Their portion is literally HUGE!! My favorite restaurant for lunch as always.

2022 JAN UPDATE. STILL our favorite spot. The reason we prefer this pho bo is because it's savory vs.sweet. Has all the spices of pho bo... but doesn't ruin it with that sugary/msg taste. Pho ga is also fantastic.
