Pho 88

We've seen this place every time we drive by and we've always we need to try it so this time we did. It did not disappoint. As you walk in there is no horses you just find a seat and you can order right off the table on these little iPads. It was a neat experience. The waitress did come over and confirm our order which was good. The only thing is not all drinks are on the menu when you order. The computer showed only coke products but they had Pepsi. They have a combination meal that includes PHo soup, appetizer and a drink for $19.99. On this visit I got the chicken pho. I love it and it really was a good size for the price, I chose the potstickers as my appetizer and those were cooked just perfect too. My husband got the spicy beef noodle Pho and that was delicious and he chose the egg rolls as his appetizer. We love this place and will definitely be coming back for more. They have other dishes like pad Thai that looked so good. I definitely want to try that on our next visit. If you haven't tied this place you should cause it was really good and you can't beat those prices.

After weeks of passing by this place, I finally decided to stop in because I'm sick and in need of a nice hot broth. When you walk in, you can seat yourself & use an iPad to order off of. Choices are pretty interesting since it's a Vietnamese, Chinese and Korean fusion place it seems. The food takes ~15-20 minutes to get to you even when the interior isn't busy. I ordered a pho and spring rolls. Upon receiving them, I couldn't help but notice that the pork is literally over cooked bits of meat that is SO sparse and doesn't even cover the top of the spring roll. One of the weirdest rolls I have ever gotten and definitely not worth $8, the peanut sauce is also so bland, I wish it was a little sweeter.The pho is also quite bland and noodles were cooked a bit softer than I like. The portion size is alright for the price, but you only get one size when you order pho. Honestly, I wouldn't return here :(

I used to live in Koreatown and was fortunate to be surrounded by deliscious Pho restaurants, since I moved to Bakersfield I found that Pho 88 has some of the best Pho and it reninds me of the ones in LA. My favorite is the meatballs and steak! As for my mother(my usual companion) she loves the fried rice with chicken and shrimp, its so delicious! Also, i just tried the Gyoza and they were crispy and oh so tasty!Highly recommend Pho 88!

It was busy and there was only one server., but she did a good job. The menu was available on a screen attached to the table, but too inconvenient to use for both of us. I used the one regular menu they had. The drunken noodles were very good! I had the beef pho, which was tasty. The spring roll was just ok. They are usually my favorite thing at any restaurant, not sure what was missing, but I didn't finish them. It was a bit dusty and the front counter decor was neglected, but I think that's good in a place like this. They clearly spend more time on quality food than decorating.

Went here on a weekday lunch time. The server was fast and was able to give me a seat within a minute. I love pho and have tried many places for pho or Vietnamese restaurants. I really liked the taste of their pho and the portion was huge for 1 person; for that I can give it 5 stars :) However, the egg roll wasnt a fave of mine. I think it has less filling and im not sure if it's just veggies inside. Other than that, place was clean and ambiance was great. I recommend this place if you are in the area and wanted to try some pho :)

We got to the restaurant at 7:15. We were the third people in line. They only had one server they had tables with food on them that we weren't being cleared. We sat for 45 minutes. They sat at a table 2 minutes before they were closing the server came over and said oh sorry we're closed. You can't eat here now so we had to leave after seeing us and waiting 45 minutes and never told anybody and other people that were waiting. They turned them away too and they were sitting there for 30 minutes, horrible, horrible customer service that should never happen.

It's right next to mochinut, yay!! It's a nice spot for families to have lunch or dinner. Food is priced well compared to a lot of Vietnamese and Asian restaurants in town. We went for a quick bite to eat, so we didn't order any of their bigger menu items, but I definitely want to try their Pho and Vermicelli noodles next time.The service was also great. Our waiter was very kind and attentive.

After reading a review by a "pho connoisseur" I knew I had to try this place and see what the hype was about. Unfortunately, it was all hype - no game. The pho was mediocre and the pork rolls were mainly noodles with tiny strips of pork. There should be pork in every bite of the roll, not sparse tiny pieces, big chunks.There isn't a small/large option for the pho anymore and the price went way up. It's now $14.95 for a big bowl of pho. I was looking forward to the old sub-$10 small bowl because who really needs 2 cups of noodles and a few strips of meat in their 6 cup bowl of pho for twice the price? Overall not impressed. I'll be back for a second review because I always give a place a few tries before deciding to write it off completely. Having been to *every* pho joint in San Diego county and most of the ones in Bakersfield, this place is towards the bottom of the list.

Very good pho and food overall 10/10 And the server is a good looking dude too u must go here Service is good the good looking dude is fast and gentleman. Ambiance is good too he was nice and good looking cant get enough of that but yeah thats all thx....

Was passing thru Bakersfield and found this gem!Service is great and food is amazing and I will definitely be coming back next time I am in Bakersfield!
