PhoHolic

I'm surprised the ratings are so low--Phoholic is a classic! The broth here is delicious, easily one of my favorite pho spots in Orange County. I even like it more than Pho 79.I prefer this location over the others because it's spacious, so I rarely have to wait long for a table. I also love that they have outdoor seating, which means I can bring my dog while enjoying a bowl of pho. This is huge for me because I take my dogs everywhere, and finding a pho spot with outdoor seating is like finding a needle in a haystack.That said, the service isn't great. It's pretty much "self-service" here--you find your own table, grab your own napkins, and probably can't rely on the waiters for much. You also order and pay at the front after waiting in line, not at your table. If you're expecting a typical restaurant experience, this isn't the place for you.But if you're just here for great pho and don't mind the no-frills setup, this spot delivers.

Been here multiple times, but this was my first to-go order. They made an exception for me and made my pho hot, ready to eat (usually to-go orders are delivered cold, reheat later).I wanted to eat at a table near the arcade at Rodeo 39 and ordered the #13 Pho with steak and oxtail. The wait to order was not long because it was just after they opened around 11:30 am. The wait for the meal was about 5-10 minutes. They packaged it very organized and included all the flatware, sauces, and garnishes. The temperature of the broth does decrease after you add all the vegetables, but it was still very good and warm. The size didn't look big, but it was very filling. Definitely will order here again.

It's Sunday and drizzling around noon the line was out to the side walk but the wait was not long at all, maybe 10 minutes. It's packed! We managed to get an indoor table way at the back. I don't usually eat pho. I don't like the noodles but I wanted warm broth today. They will give you a number and tell you where to sit. I ordered the Oxtail pho ( did not eat the noodles). The broth was delicious and the oxtail was flavorful and tender. Minus the kids next to me coughing up a lung and not covering their mouths the experience was okay. Next time I'll sit outside if the day is nice. I will return.

I went here with a friend on a busy Saturday night. There was a manageable line right outside of the restaurant, even at 8pm. The restaurant has enough seating for dine-in, along with an al-fresco option right outside along Rodeo 39's corridor. It may be tricky trying to find PhoHolic's location inside Rodeo 39, since they are a standalone restaurant instead of a food court stall. But I'm confident that customers will find their way to eat legit pho here. During busy times, whether it's for dine-in or to-go, a staff member with an ipad/tablet may likely stand outside to ask customers if they're ready to order. When we were in line, a staff member asked us if we were ready. We gave our orders and were promoted to pay at the cashier once it was our turn. After paying, we were assigned a table since we opted for dine in. Within less than 10 minutes, our orders were brought to our table. The pho was piping hot and I could immediately smell the authentic aroma from it. My Pho Tai was therapeutic and the broth tasted perfect. It wasn't too salty nor overpowering. I opted for thin noodles and were fresh and not soggy. It had generous portions of sliced beef, which complemented the soup and provided basil and bean sprouts. There are no flaws in PhoHolic's authentic pho and it's worth the trip!

Order at the entrance, food delivered to your table of your choice. Service is quick.Beef bone is available but wasn't listed on the menu u this last time. Any of the pho bowls are recommended.The soup is flavorful with good amount of meat.No need to order "pho" just side of meat if doing keto and price is reasonable.Very spacious. Apparently, you can have your pho anywhere in the Rodeo 39 area. Eat in the patio out front of side tables inside of Rodeo 39. Don't go too far.Parking is challenging so be patient as a space will open up.

I came to PhoHolic because it's a convenient place to get a bowl of Pho. I came by Rodeo39 a lot and what I noticed was that they are always opened during all holidays! I also love coming here when I have my dogs with me, as they are dog friendly with outdoor patio for dining.Food is good. You'll get so much noodles and beef in your big bowl.I usually have no problem here but today, I was waiting in the line and a couple of servers came to take our orders on their tablets. I thought it was nice of them to speed up the line but there was no menu given to you. When I get to the paying, I asked the lady if I could switch my order and she rolled her eyes. I also found hair in my food today. I told the servers and they replaced my bowl.

My family normally eat here and we used to think this place is the best phở but until today. We found beef are tuff and chewy. It look very dark not light color light it normally is. Within 10 minutes I began passing gas so we go home asap and I got stomachache and this is the only food I eat since lunch. I don't think I will comeback here for awhile.

World-class Pho. PhoHolic is situated next to the lively food court, Rodeo 39. The line for this restaurant extended out of the restaurant and all the way to the parking lot; what this tells me is this place is legit. Despite the long line, service is incredibly efficient. We were seated indoors within 15 minutes of waiting, and there's also plenty of outdoor seating as well The pho is some of the best pho I've ever had. I had the oxtail and steak pho. The meats were fatty and delectable. The broth was nice a blend of sweet and savory. They give you a very generously sized bowl; my girlfriend and dad both had trouble finishing their soup. For $14-20, these pho bowls are well worth their value. In a town of extremely competitive pho restaurants, PhoHolic makes a name for itself with its flavorful pho, its plentiful meats and noodles, and its generous portions--all at an excellent value.

Da best pho in the area!!!Great tasting, inexpensive and we're greeted by the staffs very friendly. Haven't found anywhere else that beats the quality of this place!I'll definitely coming back and strongly recommend anyone who hasn't been here to stop by and give it a try!

never disappoints, so consistent, and my go-to for good pho. the service is quick. the place is always busy and full of families. thats how you know its good.
