Top Vietnamese Restaurant in Lomita
Pho 1945 & Poke Bowl
1945 Pacific Coast Hwy, Lomita, CA 90717, United States
Very sad & disappointing for a place I used to love supporting- especially because it was a small business. As a fellow small business owner customer service and satisfaction should be first priority. I went in at about 8:10 pm with my daughter. The places closes at 9pm.... I sit down and am approached by a woman whos never served me before. I order a side of broth noodles and meat for my 3 year old, I always order my daughters good right away so that the kids food is out first and I can help her eat before mine. The woman says - no I can not do that. Assuming this is a misunderstanding- I say Im also going to order food but just want to get hers started. Still she refuses and stands there over me and also says I cannot order small sides for my kid. This is what I always order. I said ok fine I wont get her anything- their loss. Ill just share my soup with her. She forces me to order altogether because she wouldnt leave the table. At this point Im irritated and uncomfortable. Fast forward. Our food comes. My soup and the sides she told me I was not allowed to order. Within 10 minutes of getting our food and in mid bite she comes over and says I have to pay right now because they are closing the register. Fine! So I pay. Im not kidding you as soon as I paid I asked for change for cash tip (with my $10) and she says they have no change proceeds to pick up plates off the table. No change because she expected a big tip. I left very unhappy, still hungry and sad I will not be returning.

Their food is good but not excellent. Their CATERING SIDE OF THEEEE OPERATION is a different story however : Someone was interviewed and hired on the spot by Kim, the H.R. Manager but but but Crystal Coser said, well basically UN-hired someone because this person had A broken tooth veneer and 1 Dental tooth extraction on order to prepare for an implant.The tooth that had to be extracted was in the upper right quadrant, and yes it was visible, agreed. The other broken veneer was not to visible due to its location. Both teeth which was in the process of been repaired, been prepped for a replacement.So beeeecause of the simple fact that someone had a broken tooth veneer and a necessary extraction : as in a gap in the upper front area this was theee cause for Crystal to over-write Kim and UN-hire someone beeecause of a dental gap and broken Veneer. This person did have a gap on the front area, yes, agreed..This was during COVID-19s strick Facemasks policy established by the Los Angeles county Department of Public Health in which Facemask were mandatory by restaurants and Catering company employees. so if FACEMASKS were going to be involved before, during and after catering events ( as well as restaurants ). Why would Crystal Coser basically terminate someone because of A broken Dental Veneer ? I guess she is CONCERNED about thee image of HER COMPANY : about A broken Dental Veneer and an extracted tooth that will make HER COMPANY look bad eventhough COVID19 FACEMASKS would would cover the smiley face area she is concerned about... Crystal Coser how do YOU feel about YOUR IMAGINE NOW...???THERE is more, Since Crystal Coser UN-hired someone, this dedicated person would call, text and send Emails in order to book shifts with Bites and Bashes Crystal Cosers Catering Company. This went in for 2 Months. Guess what ?? There were no no NO returned calls, emails or texts. No type of communication from Bites and Bashes Catering.No Texts,calls, emails, radio traffic, Shortwave radio, satellite phone, CB, Telex, Fax, 2 way radio, Chirp Commo, smoke signals, Mirror signals, or messenger pichons. Nothing nothing telling this person something like Sorry, I Crystal Coser changed my mind So i told Kim my H.R. manager not to book you for any events . As a common courtesy at least tell someone they were UN-hired instead of this dedicated person stopped looking for work THINKING I GOT A JOB, I will just wait until THEY text me for events I can work Does Crystal Coser write BIAS-ED reviews due to the way a prep cook or line cook or a waitress / waiter / server looks like a bad car accident, or someone got burned during a house fire or A survivor of the Killing Fields Of Cambodia or A failed assassination attempt by North Korean Agents...Crystal Coser is also a co-editor for EaterLA...Discrimination is not only UN-ethical but is also ILLEGAL Crystal Coser...HOPE-FULLY you the readers will wonder what she does behind closed door regarding Catering and her little cafe in Lomita with matching name :Bites n Bashes Cafe and Catering25600 Narbonne AvenueLomita, CA. 90717THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME...

Very good Shanghai cuisine different to Cantonese, Vietnamese and Thai. Good flavors and a varied menu with great options for sharing all dishes. Dine in portions are good.Update 5/28:Chino Hills location - staff are not as friendly and I found the food to be good but, portions were a little smaller.Irvine location - friendly staff - portions and taste of food on point. Make it a point to order different menu items when visiting. The menu selection although the same at all locations is vast and varied to what is out here in other such Asian restaurants.
