Upon stepping into Pho Hue Oi, I was greeted with an ambiance that exuded warmth and authenticity. The menu featured an array of tempting dishes, but I couldn't resist diving into their "Rice Plates" – a true showcase of Vietnamese culinary delights.
After much contemplation, I decided to indulge in their "Com Suon Nuong" – a delightful rice plate featuring tender and succulent grilled pork that was marinated to perfection. Accompanied by a generous portion of fragrant jasmine rice, fresh cucumber slices, and a zesty dipping sauce, every bite of this dish was a delightful burst of flavors that took me on a journey to the bustling streets of Saigon.
However, the exceptional dining experience at Pho Hue Oi was not just about the mouthwatering Rice Plates; it was the impeccable service provided by a waitress named Linh that truly made my visit special.

Read moreLand in LAX and craving viet food? Pho Hue Oi is the place to go to!
It's reasonably priced and has authentic Vietnamese food (you can tell by the satay they have). I’ve been heading to LAX for lots of weddings this year and I swear I accidentally went to this place twice and then remember that I did go here before when I sat down! Just means their food is bomb.
It’s a quick 10-15min drive from the airport so it’s my go-to viet place when I land. The specialize in Bun Bo Hue and Pho. Their top two dishes on yelp are Bun Bo Hue and Banh Beo (which is my fav). Plus they don’t cheap out on the thai chili
5/5 - Pho Dac Biet - pho has deep flavor and very good 5/5 - Bun Bo Hue - it is spicy and flavorful! Plus they have pork blood, which is my favorite. You know it's good based on the satay they have 5/5 - Banh Beo - omg they did not skimp out on shredded shrimp and thai chili. You can tell the banh beo is very fresh and hits the spot 3/5 - Com Suon Nuong - I guess this is com suon nuong and not "com tam (bi) suon nuong" - seems like a pretty basic dish and not broken rice, no egg meat loaf, but the suon was very tasteful and had the hit of charcoil flavor.
As for service, we got seated pretty quickly and took our order when we were ready. Didn't really check up on us that much but that's fine.
Parking is super easy which is always nice.
Ambiance - the place is kind of small and I haven't been there during rush hour. Pretty typical viet restaurant but definitely cleaner than the REAL authentic ones hahaha
I'd go again for their Banh Beo, Bun Bo...
Read moreDecent Pho. Rude servers. Kitchen closes early and doesn't post time kitchen closes. Avoid.
UPDATE: I went back after someone reached out apologizing for the rude service. Walk in and am the only customer, besides all 3 servers sitting down and on their phones, 1 young woman not wearing a mask. Tables and chairs dirty with food debris. I sit, order, am told there's no soda besides diet. (With a Vons in the same parking lot) Order, then ask for the table to be wiped down. I'm asked to go to another table instead. I ask again for the table to be wiped down and am again asked to go to another dirty table. After 3 times asking for the table to be wiped the server begrudgingly brings a rag and motions for ME to wipe the table myself. N.O. No friendly service I was promised to come back to. Instead the same rudeness as previously. Food comes out fresh, hot and tasty, but I see the maskless young woman going in and out of the kitchen, where I see a cook and what looks to be the owner also not wearing a mask! Starving, I hesitate but decide to eat my food anyways. Pay and leave no tip.
It's too bad this place doesn't hire better staff and servers. I'm a HUGE tipper and would have tipped 50% if they knew the first thing about customer service and actually cared about their clients or bothered to follow BASIC...
