Pho 22 — Restaurant in Glendale

Been coming here for years but recently the old waitress(Korean Lady in her 50s) was very rude to my friend and I. We asked for onions but was faced with anger and frustration because we could only order one onion per table. I have no issue with paying extra for a few measly onions but the waitress was very rude yelling in our faces. The other waiter who was a kind gentlemen tried deescalating the situation by apologizing to us by explaining that he forgot to mention this onion “ rule ”and she was merely trying to teach him a lesson as he was a trainee. He actually wasn’t a trainee because I’ve seen him before as I’ve been coming for 8 years but I understand he told us that to make us feel better and make amends. Asking for more onions has never been an issue when I’ve come with my Korean family members, being a Korean myself I’ve always supported this place. I assume the onions were an issue because my friend that I was with is more darker skin toned and the lady wanted to find a stupid reason to cause a commotion. This is a common trait in older generation Koreans that have failed in life and live paycheck to paycheck. They take their resentment towards others because they’re upset about their lonely empty depressing life. Overall I’m never coming back here and I advise...

Arrived at 7:50p.m. (10 minutes before closing with my wife and restaurant was about 60% full. After waiting five minutes at the table, we were told the kitchen is closed and we can not be served. I would not be as upset if I had not witnessed the table next to us just placing their order. They were not even been served their drinks yet.

The owner has always been rude and waiters are unfriendly but, we kept going back (even during pandemic) in the hopes of them improving. Considering how many reviews talk about their unfriendly service, we thought (hoped) they would eventually get the message and improve. Not the case; and this one topped it all.

Sad to say, they seem to prefer serving their asian customers and do not care about anyone else.

If my wife had not asked me to let it go and not let their prejudice ruin our evening, I would have made such a scene that they would never forget.

This is the last time I try them and will tell everyone who would listen about my experiences at this location.

With that kind of attitude, you do not belong...

This review makes me very sad. Been a regular for a while now. I asked for some hoison sauce to go and they said it's not included with the fried rice and spring rolls. I've been a regular for a while and this just ruined it completely. What kind of cheap people refuse to give a regular some sauce packets? By the way, they charged me $34 for fried rice and a couple Spring rolls and refused to give some sauce packets. I live a couple blocks away and came regularly and I'm sad that they would treat me like this. Over a few cents, they lost a lifelong customer who would've easily spent thousands...
