Phở 86 Restaurant — Restaurant in Westminster

NGL the line at phoholic was too long, so I went to the nearest pho joint. It happened to be Pho 86, which is diagonally across the street. There was plenty of parking. The parking lot is huge. (Iykyk phoholic has like no parking)

I saw signs that said pho ga hai nam, so I decided to try it. It came with a garlic sauce and a small bowl of hot broth, which was delicious. The rice was on the dry side, so I wouldn't order this again. The pho dac biet was satisfying. You can get a large size of this for $0.50 more. I think they forgot to be diligent with removing fatty parts. There was literally two chunks of inedible yellow fat.

I ordered an appetizer of egg rolls (4). This was pretty good! I wish it came with more greens other than lettuce. I would get it again. The garlic sauce from my rice was good with the egg rolls too.

Service was good. There weren't too many patrons, so I felt they were very attentive. There was one lady who spoke English well, but everyone else said very little.

Credit card is accepted, but there is a fee, maybe $0.50, to use it. They also charge $0.50 to...

Cheap, authentic, flavorful. If you happen to get a recommendation to come here, you’ve come to the right place. Located adjacent to the stater brothers, this place doesn’t look too special from the outside —until you see they start serving at 5am.

What makes this place special compared to other restaurants I’ve been to is the beautiful beef tendon you can order. They serve huge beef bones with the tendon and the fat ready to rip right off. This is a true delicacy. The tendon is so juicy, savory, and fatty you can taste the umami bursting from the gelatinous goodness. Not to mention after your meal you are left with huge bones you can feed to your dog after. People tell me the tendon is good for your joints, but hey, I’m here for the food. The health benefit is a side effect.

They serve the pho with the usual trimmings, but order the oxtail-pho while you are here. Also get a thai tea. Its not too sweet but very creamy. I would advise you to communicate clearly with the server. My family and I don’t speak Vietnamese but we were...

Stopped by to order a large chicken pho to go. Inconsistent on pricing. The cashier said $15. The older lady (probably the owner) said $14 so the cashier ended up charge $14.50. When they gave me my order, I looked at the broth in the small container, it was about half full not enough for a large bowl of pho. I asked the cashier to give me more broth she hesitated and said next time I have to pay more for the broth. That is ridiculous they didn't give me enough broth in the first place. I just walked out and said there is no next time around here. On top of all this I find out when got home the portion is very small. The chicken is mostly bone, no meat. Terrible customer service. Don't go...
