Pho Ca Dao - San Diego

Always delicious! No frills Vietnamese restaurant with most of the basics. My Vietnamese father in law loves it.

Excellent broth, lots of noodles. Maybe a larger bowl would be nice to put more broth.

Tryed this place 2x. The first time was about Uber Eats and 2 times in person. Uber Eats: I personally hate ordering Pho, but I had no choice since I was really sick. To my surprise it tasted good for the takeout. I ordered Pho Tai Gau (rare steak and brisket) regular size, the Charbroiled Lemon Grass Beef Fresh Spring Rolls and Charbroiled Chicken Spring Rolls. The order on Uber Ess was a little annoying as it forced me to choose a supplement (extra noodles/soup/meat) and I didn't want, but I really wanted Pho. It was an unnecessary forced charge without it, but I sucked it up. The Pho was a solid 3/5 for the recess, so I was excited to try it personally when I felt better. My partner liked the cattle rolls, but he didn't like the chicken rolls. Diving: I finally felt better, so I went personally to try it. This time I ordered the Pho Ca Dao Special (big size) and Charbroiled Pork Spring Rolls. Wow. I was thinking. It was so good! If you like authentic Pho, that is it (in my opinion). I didn't feel thirsty or got a headache after eating, which leads me not to use MSG or use too much salt. Beautiful size part, I will probably order a regular size next time... The reels were also really good, one order comes with two reels, so it is interchangeable. Cleanliness 4/5. Eat 5/5. Service 5/5. Saw me right away. I took my order. I got my food in decent timing, let me enjoy my food and didn't push me. This is one thing that bothers me to get my tab before I eat, and good thing that she doesn't cuz I ordered to take some more roles to my partner home. Bonus: They close at 9 a.m. and they are in a place with a parking space.

Amazing broth, super fast service. Next time I crave pho I need to come back here.

Been coming here for years and it is always consistently good. Friendly service. Great pho and spring or egg rolls. Great boba smoothies. Prices have gone up Inter the last 15 years but some of the best pho around!!
