The location and environment are nice, service is fine, and prices are standard. However, you can get better tasting Vietnamese food other places in Irvine.
The service can be a bit slow but the Pho is awesome! The rare steak comes out still rare from being just put in the broth. Taste is great and they have all the spices you might want to add.
We come here 2-3 times a month and alternate between ordering the pho dishes or the rice dishes with charbroiled beef or pork chops. The kids also like drinking the Black Sea with Boba. The menu is very similar to Pho Ba Co and so...is the food so they may be owned by the same person.More
I ate here with friends for lunch in May, 2016. I had the rare steak and well done brisket Pho. The broth was a bit on the bland side, but a bit of Sriracha sauce kicked it up sufficiently. Not the best Vietnamese food around,...but definitely worth a visit.More
I was really surprised with this place because you usually can't find a decent pho restaurant outside of Westminster. My coworkers and I come here occasionally and try to get there before the noon crowd. The price is higher than what you'd get from Westminster...pho but I can't drive to Westminster on my lunch break if I work in Irvine so this place does hit the spot.More
I stopped here for lunch on my way to a meeting at UCI. I arrived just before the lunchtime rush so was able to get in and out quickly. I ordered my meal and it was at my table within 5 mins of me sitting...down. I ordered noodle soup with BBQ chicken. It was very good. Came with bean sprouts and Thai basil on the side. Well worth the trip. The prices were very reasonable.More
This pho is awesome, especially when it's cold outside. They're very generous with the add-ins. I don't always like pho broth, but it's delicious here. They have a super good deal for lunch, too, although it doesn't apply to take-out. Even without the discount it's...a great value.More
Stopped in just by chance while driving through to San Diego. Good food and reasonably priced. Pho and service were were both excellent. Highly recommended!
Right along University Drive is a small shopping center that I go because it is close to the airport and I can fill up on gas and get something to eat. The Vietnamese restaurant is an ideal place to pick up something such as a...banh mi. However, Photasia is not that type of place as its name implies. I ordered a char broiled pork salad to go but as I waited, I could see the get phos being enjoyed by a wide mix of customers. I also order a red bean drink with Boba. The drink was prepared while I waited for the freshly prepared salad. The drink has the red bean with tapioca and the rich coconut milk topping. It was a fine mixture of flavors and textures. I was told the three bean drink is the next one I should try. The salad arrived and I headed to the airport. When seated at the gate, I was able to still enjoy the freshness of the dish. The broiled pork was still warm and juicy. The rest of the dish was not up to the same level as the tomatoes were almost tasteless and there was but a sprig or two of cilantro, and chopped salad. It did fill the bill for my pre-flight meal. Next time, I will take the time to enjoy the noodle soup (Pho) or one of the vermicelli dishes.More
The pho here is really good. I always enjoy pho with my family when they come to visit me in college and we always look for something that we all enjoy. We always love good pho and this place definitely meets our expectations for good...pho. I would definitely recommend anyone who is able to go to this location.More
