I searched this place for my lunch pho craving. They were not opened for dine in so I had to take to-go. The soup was still hot and meats and veggies portions were well enough.

I love this place! My family and I always order from here. Favorites are the grilled bbq pork vermicelli and the grilled bbq pork spring rolls! I have tried so many different places but this place is just the best! The staff is super friendly and always so welcoming! Definitely recommend this spot! Thank you guys for being so great! Keep up the great work!

Food was good. I got the veggie pho. Clear broth and not too greasy, which is the way I like it . The tofu was soft and not fried.No dine-in but they have limited outside seating. Kinda pricey for pho, especially considering the atmosphere.

Broth is lacking in flavor but definitely had a lot of noodles to satisfy. Spring rolls were great and fresh.

The best pho restaurant in / around the Arcadia area! Really delicious soup, and the servers are all smiles. This is a nice, comfortable little restaurant. It is especially good on a rainy day! I highly recommend giving this one a try if you havent already. I will absolutely be back!

A great tasting pho, with generous portions of super fresh cilantro, sprouts, basil and peppers on the side. Everything is well packed with no chance of spilling in your car. This is important as they are only doing takeout now (Aug. 22). I was told they hope to have dine in by the fall or winter, but are hit by the same labor shortage as everyone else. A good value, a terrific taste, very healthy - highly recommended!

When I went to pick an order up opened the door cant even enter with table blocking the entrance.lady was angry and rude, when I tried asking her something in regards to my order.will never go back. I recommend miss saigon and the pho in old town monrovia,cant even compare.

Pho stuff is pretty good but a bit pricey. Rice dishes was pretty sad. I got chicken mushroom rice, and as you can see the dish is half the plate and this is for $10 :(. Taste was ok.

Over the past year, I have tried several Pho places in the area, and I always come back to this place. I order the raw meat pho and Thai iced tea for delivery constantly ( I work from home) and Ive never been disappointed with the flavor.The pho is delicious and even when I order delivery, the broth arrives boiling hot and cooks my raw meat perfectly. When I order delivery, my pho arrives with everything that would be served at the resturant; sauces, bean sprouts, jalapeños, lime, fresh basil leaves/stems, onions, snd green onions. Why I always order from here is because of how flavorful the pho is, and it tastes the same every time I order. I do feel the price is a bit on the high side, but the pho is to die for and I never regret paying for it after I finish a bowl. Every spoonful is worth it!The taste is consistent and in the 30+ times Ive ordered here, Ive yet to have had a bad experience. I would highly recommend this place if youre looking for some delicious pho on a cold day. :)

We live right around the corner from Pholicious and we love it. The food is always fresh and the quality and taste is consistent so every time you go there you are never disappointed. They are always busy so that should tell you something. They recently changed the menu which is still excellent but I really miss some of their old dishes. Most of the locals still go there after more than a year, they have added outdoor dining as well. However they are so busy they they just opened up a new facility in Temple City which I have not yet visited. I love the food, they are do clean and the location have plenty of parking. I recommend trying a new dining experience there, you will not be disappointed.

Brought my parents here who arent very adventurous. My dad absolutely loved the shrimp salad and my mom the chicken entree. Phö is definitely better than your average shop. I would love to come back!

I really enjoyed the Rare Steak Kobe Pho. The spring rolls were fresh and zesty. We arrived just before the lunch rush and man did it get packed. Tables for families and dates.

Food is good and authentic, service is attentive. Quiet and clean.The down side is pricing. In average, their menu is $1.50 to $2.00 per item more than most Vietnamese restaurants do in SGV.

Pholicious, the service - Excellent...the place - Very Clean...the food - Delicious.This place is always packed with customers...must be the secret to their success broth, which is very savory in flavor, a lot of ingredients in it, plus all the healthy fresh onions cilantro bean sprout basil etc...My current #1 pho place, the top dog, the enchilada, the king of the throne, the marquee, the undisputed champion, BEST PHO IN ARCADIA !!!

Staying in LA County and around SGV area, youll find a lot of Vietnamese restaurants. The thing I look for is what makes them different from each other. Usually it all comes down to the broth and the meat. Pho-Licious serves a good variety of dishes, from your regular Pho vermicelli noodle to egg noodle soup. They also serve rice dishes and Vietnamese sandwiches. I ordered the fried tofu for appetizer. The tofu was perfectly fried to its golden brown form. It was pared with peanut sauce. I wasnt a big fan of the sauce, but the tofu did go well with a mixture of siracha and hoysen sauce. For the main course we ordered the Egg Noodle soup with shrimp and the House special. The broth was good, but not that memorable. It was a little too salty for my taste. The noodle wasnt over cook at all. The meat and seafood wasnt of the best or freshest quality. The food was ok and I have to say Ive had better. The service in this place was very poor. Nobody asked if were ready to order so I have to call one of the servers. We ordered drinks and that didnt arrive until they served the appetizer which took quite a while. I never waited for a pho noodle for more that 20 minutes and thats a fact. I asked for the check a few times, but the server never got back to me so I just payed at the counter. I still give this place 3 stars because the food wasnt that bad, but forgettable.

This place has the best PHO in Arcadia California. My family and I always get the large chicken pho. It is so delicious and healthy.

Service was horrible... Food was meh... Server never came to ask if we needed anything, not even refills.. She came and moved our phones off the table to take place matts.. Rude and had a racist vibe from her... If possible I would rate negative stars.. The 1 stars on there rating is exactly what we experience from other customers..pretty much spot on.. Never going back..Dont waste your time money or gas.. Not worth it at all .. -5

Not sure how this place has such a high rating. Sometimes I question people taste buds. Id consider the prices fairly high for a pho place in the area. On top of that, I probably got literally 3 very small pieces of cheap cut/leftover pieces of meat inside of my fillet mignon pho that werent cooked all the way because of the mouth watering MSG infused broth that wasnt even hot enough to properly cooked the meat. The spring rolls were mostly just lettuce with a single piece of shrimp cut right in the middle to make it look like theres more. The rice dishes shouldnt even be called a rice dish. It should be listed as a salad with a small portion of meat and rice as side dishes. If I wanted salad, Id go to Souplantation instead. Service wasnt necessarily the best. Not sure if the short Asian girl is able to speak English but a thank you and perhaps a smile goes a long way.

So Pho-LICIOUS!!!So hubs and I just landed from cold and cloudy SF to... cold and cloudy LA. What the heck?!?! So it was rainy too! So what better way to enjoy this weather than to have HOT Pho.We looked up closest places to our place and this one showed up.I was determined to eat my PHO.I ordered the grilled BBQ Pork that comes on the side.FOOD:Egg rolls: They were okay. Kinda mushy but still flavorful. I kinda wished they were a bit more solid inside to hold up. But still. I ate it.Grill BBQ Pork Pho - so its basically grilled pork on the side of a noodle soup. It was kinda burnt but I actually like my grilled food that way. The soup was good. It was hearty and I couldnt finish all of it. But it was also good as leftover food! mMMMHMMM...DRINKS:Got their tea... which happened to be bagged green tea... for a Vietnamese place, that was weird for me, but meh. Choices!SERVICE:Nice and fast.PARKING:Lots of parking.AMBIANCE:It was a cold day and you could feel it in the restaurant, even with the door closed. So avoid being near the door cuz you can feel the breeze every time someone comes in and out if youre near the door.OVERALL:Pretty good. It did the job.
