At this restaurant, you will be served Vietnamese cuisine. Tasty chicken pho, pho noodles and ginger chicken are among the dishes to be ordered at Pho Dakao. Try good flija. Come to this place for delicious wine. Come here and have great iced coffee, tea or juice. This spot is suitable for guests who have dinner in a hurry as they can order dishes as a takeout. The high ratings of this restaurant would be impossible without the cheerful waitstaff. Fine service is something clients like here. A lot of reviewers find that prices are attractive for what you get. There is a cozy atmosphere and lovely decor at Pho Dakao. But this place is not highly appreciated by Google users who provided it a below average rating.

I tried their chicken pho & Banh Khot. The dark meat was tastier than the white meat, as expected. But the white meat was just ok. I wish they gave more than just 1 young chicken egg per bowl. Plenty of internal organs (liver & gizzards). Broth was clear & good, but didn’t have the pho spices. Wide fresh noodle was excellent. Portion was large. Service was quick. Banh Khot was crunchy with a taste of coconut milk, perfect. Shrimp was on the small side. Overall above average as evident by the waiting line.

So I’ve been going here for a couple of times Over the past years. The pho is still good, made with free range chickens and fresh noodles. The amount of noodle have change, it’s like they cut the amount they use to give. Also, service has gotten bad. It was very unorganized, 3 different waiters asked if we already ordered, we never got our waters. I don’t think I will go back here again just because of the service. Also, I asked for an extra bowl for my child, and they brought me a dirty bowl.

Famous for the pho ga (chicken) I have been here a few times and finally returned since prior to pandemic, yes that's way too long. It was a gray day in southern California therefore a bowl of pho was much needed. This day, the husband and I arrived around 11ish and it was already crowded; however, we got the best seat in the house (well, at least I think it's the best seat). Husband chose the bo nuong phomai - grilled beef with cheese served with salad and fries with ketchup for dipping. He thoroughly enjoyed it. I went for the pho ga dui long - leg thigh (dark meat) amd gizzards rice noodle soup. It was so good. This is made with free range chicken. Really good and lean, awesome broth, served with herbs and bean sprouts on the side. The nuoc mam dipping sauce is a must! wow! For drinks he had soda chanh (lemonade soda) and iced tea for me. and before I forget...the sound system was playing some instrumental chill music, Oasis, and Beyoncé during our visit. The music, indeed, is very important to me. It sets the mood and this selection did not overpower our conversation and also eay on our digestion :) Service was good and friendly. Parking is plentiful. Enjoy! Service Dine in Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

This is the best Pho Ga I’ve ever had. Trust me, I’m Vietnamese so I know my Pho. Most of the bad reviews on Yelp mentions the service. Who goes to a viet restaurant for service? Lol The dark meat with the dipping sauce is perfect with the fresh noodles. The only thing missing was the chicken eggs. They said the eggs are only available on the weekends. I’ll definitely have to come back again to try it with the eggs. Eat your chicken pho at this restaurant. Thank me later. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20

New 10/4/23 Fast service great Ga (chicken) Pho (soup) & Goi (salad). Lunch was very GOOD. 🙂😍 They are now open at new location 16171 Brookhurst St, Fountain Valley, CA 92708. New faces? New cook? Good chicken rice noodle soup (súp phở gà). Update 12/10/18 New modern restaurant does not translate as better, miss the old crew from previous location, this young crew are not an improvement.

I came here on a trip back home to San Diego from Santa Barbara and am glad I did. The Phở Gà Khô (Dry Chicken Phở, with Chicken Consomme and a magical dark phở sauce of unknown type or origin) is mind-blowingly awesome. I have no idea how to eat this, so I started by dipping the expertly-grilled chicken into the sticky sweet-ish side sauce provided, which was packed with umami. The sauce left quite an impression on my tongue, it was like concentrated phở. The golden chicken consomme provided was also excellent, and combined with the other wild flavors to make this dish seem almost familiar. I recommend this restaurant and the Phở Gà Khô even despite one of the workers pushing around a mop, bucket, and towel that smells terrible -- it literally smells fecal. That was my only complaint about the experience, but still not enough to keep me away in the future.

Soup. Chicken. Pho. Simple. Delicious! First time, and first time for chicken pho for breakfast. The noodles, seem fresh, not the dried pho noodles. First time for this outside of Vietnam for me. This is what every table ordered. Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

Quality chicken and mild pho. I would love to go back just for the chicken! If you look up "free cage organic chicken", I am sure these chicken will show up! Oh... Noodles seem to be fresh, not dried and then reheated...but as a result, not as chewy...but very good.
