Pho 81 Vietnamese Cuisine

Michael D 4 months ago

Had a dance competition for my daughter in the area, met up with an old friend for a bite to eat, some Vietnamese coffee and a chat. Pho 81 was a fantastic choice, I ordered a soup and fried rice, friend the egg roll 4pc, of course a couple coffee’s. The soup was fantastic, Pho # 1 combination, regular size loaded with all the meats a goodies, combination rice has a delicious array of all the meats, fantastic flavor. I never got a photo of the egg rolls. He ate them quickly. The coffee is strong and delicious. I highly recommend if you are in the area, stuck in traffic or just want a bit of great food stop in! Definitely will visit again. Thank you for reading my people! Jam this place up! Definitely worth your time and dime!!

Food was fantastic. #60 with shrimp and #3 hit the spot, egg rolls and spring rolls complimented the meals very well. The place is very clean and server was very attentive. Will definitely be back.

Pho 81 has hands down the best-tasting pho in town! The broth is rich and flavorful, and I always add a bit of the chili oil to give it that extra kick—highly recommend if you like a little heat. The customer service here is awesome. The staff is always attentive, and the owners are genuinely friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. This place has definitely become my go-to spot anytime I’m in the area. If you’re craving a solid bowl of pho, this is the place to be!

Arguably the BEST pho around the whole Inland Empire. It is a small, family owned restaurant next to the Albertsons and walking distance from the Van Buren Drive-in theater. I'm a regular at this place and the owner and staff recognize me and know my order so much so that by the time I sit down, they pretty much have my order ready. I don't expect this from them every time and don't expect them to do anything for me or provide special treatment, but the fact that they take care of anyone I take and myself makes me appreciate them much more. The staff is just that good and caring about this place. The people here are humble and so nice. The pho is just so delicious and comforting, it feels like a warm hug. It's great for any occasion: when it's cold, raining, when you're sick, when you're hungover, and even when it's hot. The day that I eventually move, no matter how far, I will come to this place for the Pho. It is that damn good. They even offer a broth only Pho that was perfect when I had my wisdom teeth removed and I couldn't chew anything for a few days and I was hungry and craving pho, so I appreciate that even more. The other food they serve smells so delicious that I'm tempt

The food at Pho 81 is good. I had the pho tai, and my friend had the sauteed tofu. We both enjoyed our meals. The prices are spot on, and the place is clean and nicely appointed. On my first visit, there were no workers visible when I first got there, and I didn't know if I should order at the counter or wait to be seated, or what. I had several awkward minutes of not knowing what to do before the guy came out and saw me. Also, I wasn't given a spoon with the soup, and the spoon I got when I went up and asked for it was not a pho spoon, it was a regular cereal spoon which was far too small to use properly, and it took forever to finish the broth without picking up the bowl and drinking it Viking style, which I wouldn't normally want to do. So I wouldn't say that the service was off, but maybe it was a little glitchy. I'll be back, and I'm sure they'll nail it next time, at which point, I'll revise my review. Edit: on a subsequent visit, again, the food was great and the location is clean and nicely appointed. The staff was on point this time. I enjoyed my visit.
