I had my first taste of PHO 99 today. Service was ok, the front of the house can use a little more smiles. Food wise it was not to bad, nothing near as good as Westminster "orange county" PHO. the prices i thought were a little high for being bland, i ordered the PHO number 1 , meaning combination of meats example tips,brisket,rare steak,tendon, meatball. I expect for $7 not half a meatball and 2 slices of rare steak. the broth was very good lots of seasoning can taste the rock sugar and star anise very tasty but for my taste a little to much salt other then that broth was great, i can't say that for the meat, it was flavorless like if they boiled it in water before dumping it in my bowl, i expected same flavor in my meat that's in the broth.

Read moreThis Store was recommended to me by Lina who has been doing my pedicures for the past 4 years. I walked into the store just guessing what I needed to make or some pho soup and there was a really nice lady I think she is the owner I didn't catch her name she asked me what I was making? I told her I wanted to make pho soup for my husband and son. She was so kind enough to show me everything I needed and told me she used to own a pho restaurant in corona.

I will definitely be back to buy more products. THANKS Again a...
Read moreMe and the family have been coming here for 8 years now, the food is always fresh and delicious too. Tom the owner and his sister Li are very nice to us but are very shy. My favorite dishes are the soup #8 sliced beef and tendon soup and my other favorite dish is #108 with beef and semi soft rice large noodles. The spring rolls are delicious, also love the pork fried rice. They have a variety of Vietnamese drinks/smoothies and sandwiches to choose from. The service is so so and the waiters/waitresses are family and don't speak good English, the culture doesn't smile so much because I think they're all shy. So if you want perky smiles and jumpity American style service this isn't the place for you. I go for the great homemade...
