Pho Mai Vietnamese Gourmet — Restaurant in Temecula

Worst Vietnamese Food Ever When we entered the restaurant we asked an employee the food was good. He declined to answer the question and referred us to the owner who's also the waiter. The owner responded, "the food is the best Vietnamese food in Temecula. " He flatly lied to us. I love Vietnamese foods but this one restaurant was tge worst of the worst. I ordered rice with tofu and assorted vegetables. Instead I received a plate that was mostly diced carrots, sliced onions, flavorless tomatoes colored rice, and four shaved off tinny tofu pieces. Looked like something scraped from the bottom of ancient cooking pot.

My girlfriend ordered lemon grass beef and chicken. The portion she received was mostly fat, gristle beef served over the flavorless tomat colored rice. One side of her plate was filled with their so-called salad, no greens. It consists of two slices of cucumber, one small slice of tomatoe and watery inner part of Iceberg lettuce. Please save yourself from disappointment. DON'T EAT HERE. DON'T EVEN RECOMMEND IT TO YOUR WORST ENEMY....

I tried to go here for lunch but sadly had to leave empty stomach due to how long the food was taking. My group of 3 walked in and it took 10 minutes just to place an order. After 25 minutes of waiting we asked to have it made to go as our lunch was going to run out. Waited another 10 minutes when we decided to leave. When we told them we were leaving they said the order was ready. Waited 5 minutes after they said it was ready and had to walk out empty handed. Now I've been to most the pho places in this area and was very excited to try a new one and this place was just disappointing. The only plus side was the server who seemed to be filling the position for someone else, was very kind and considerate. This place lost my business permanently and I didnt even get a chance to taste the food. It should not take an hour to make a simple order of 3 soups and their kitchen staff needs to step it up with orders. Side note even the women next to us was complaining about wait time. So Del Taco recieved my business instead and I...

Maybe I was wrong to ever sport a frown But Pho Mai did what they did before I came to town

Yes, the air hung thick, the afternoon I came to town. It was cold, and I felt like a hot bowl of Pho. I mean, I craved a hot bowl of Pho. I still feel weird about calling if "Fuh". I'm a middle aged white guy. I'm supposed to pronounce it "Fow", fo-sho. Calling it "Fuh" would just make the waitress wonder if my next stop was Hair Club For Men, so I could get fitted for a toupee to hang around the stands at the high school football games.

But maybe I'm over-thinking this.

Anyways, the egg rolls had pork in em, yet were fairly tasteless. Pork and taste go together like Rarity and Brony. Seriously, when was the last time you ever had anything pork, and been like, "oh my, the flavour has absconded"? It just doesn't happen.

The Pho (pronounced "Fow") was standard, but you can order extra noodles for $1.50. So that's like Kai-Dama...
