Happy Pho

Nice little spot in Costa Mesa. It gives you a nice little home feel. The service is great. Our server was super attentive. I wish they didn't run out of bun xeo.The grilled pork spring roll was pretty good. Just remember that on the menu they showed a picture of three burning reality you get two. It wasn't anything that wow me but it was not too bad. I give this a solid 3.4/5.My bowl is the brisket, steak, and tendon pho. The broth was amazing. They stack you with lots of meat and less noodles. Most pho places give you more noodles and hardly any meat. I was super happy. I give this bowl an overall 4.9/5.My kids got the chicken pho and they usually have leftovers but they devoured it. The bowl portions are huge so you will not leave the restaurant hungry. I def recommend trying this place out.

The staff was super nice, the price is a bit much, but the food was good. Good amount of noodles and meat that comes with the pho. The broth was good, nothing over powering like other places. They don't really provide kid sizes or prices for pho just a heads up. You would have to order regular size bowl for them.

staff was friendly The Pad Thai was really good! I wish this place was closer to my place down in San Diego cause The Pad Thai was made exactly how I like. Ill be back :)

So yummy! This place definitely is family owned. It's the small hole in the wall that hits all the pho/rice/noodle cravings you need. You're gonna get fresh food, and can share with family and friends testing out each other's meals. This is an easy regular restaurant to run back to.

My large party of 12 arrived and we were seated promptly upon arrival with the waitress helping us put together the tables so we could all sit together. While the rest of my party ordered pho, I wanted to try their rice dish and chose the shaken beef dish. The dish came with a fried egg which was appreciated and uncommon for this dish. The beef cubes were so tender and well charred as well. I'd return to try out the pho next time!

On god...one of the best pho I've ever had! The broth was very flavorful and sweet, which is how I like it. The place is pretty spacious and clean, so I can expect to be seated in a nice place. The waitress, who I assume to also be the owner, was very sweet. She made sure our water was filled and came back around when we weren't sure what to order. I recommend anyone who goes to UCI to visit this place!

I've gone to multiple pho restaurants and nothing can beat Happy Pho! The service is always on point, very friendly. The ambiance is very relaxing and it honestly feels like I'm eating at home. The food always hits no matter what. No Pho restaurant can replace my love for Happy Pho.

I've been a customer at Happy Pho for years. Their pho is consistently good with a clear, flavorful broth. The spring rolls, however, are pretty lackluster.Service is hit or miss, depending on who you get. Despite these issues, the pho keeps me coming back. If you're in the mood for a decent bowl of pho, Happy Pho is worth a visit.

This is a very solid place to get Pho. Been here dozens of times and the chicken pho is great. The amount of chicken and noodles they give is more than you would think. Quality is there which sometimes can be hit or miss at other places I feel like. The service is quick and helpful at times. Inside is chill and a straightforward set up. I usually take it to go which is just good for my wife and I. They have tried several pho spots before them and this one has survived. If you want a solid place to get Pho this will do just that.

Great pho noodles. Soup is light and full of clove and basil flavors. Rich beef flavor. Bahn mis are crisp and flavorful. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Been coming here 3 years now. Always good
