Pho 54

Three diners. Three #29. BBQ pork chop with rice. We also got 2 orders of the crispy Eggroll. One of the diners suggested we get pho for us to share. The waitress questioned our decision because she said "that's a lot of food." We didn't get the pho, glad we listened. Huge plates of food! Two nicely charred chops, heaping serving of rice, small green salad & fish sauce. Each order of eggroll came with 4 rather large, beautifully crispy fried eggrolls. It was a feat in itself that we were able to finish everything.
The restaurant atmosphere itself is nothing to write home about.
But, the food was on point.

pho taste ok
open till 12 midnight
good place to fill up
dirty restroom
lots of choices on menu
small portions might need order 2 bowl

We were advid frequenters to the spot across the street. It was an on the whim decision to try out a new spot this visit; and thank God we did.
There is plenty of hassle free parking, and there are plenty of servers to wait on you with fast and diligent customer service.

We both tried our usual Dac Biet ($12) portions were huge, plenty of meat and such a good proportion of noodle to meat. The side veggies were a heaping generous fill. The soup was delicious! Also ordered a side of egg rolls($11), not necessarily egg rolls since they're wrapped and deep fried with rice paper, but BOY were they delicious. Filling was absolutely addictive and the rice paper fry was perfect. No air bubbles here! The fish sauce was given tangy and had a perfect amount of heat.

Our new go-to spot! Can't wait to revisit again.

Year after year Pho 54 continues to be my favorite Vietnamese restaurant. The savory pho flavor is the best and always consistent. We come here so often the servers know us and service is always good. The restaurant is very spacious so there's always seating and parking is easy.

This is a large Vietnamese restaurant. It has an extensive menu offering many choices of food to meet your needs. The restaurant is not super clean and frequently their workers are occupying a table to work on vegetables.

That said the food is decent and seems relatively fresh. The egg rolls are rolled nice and tight as are the spring rolls. Their menu also offers many drink choices and desserts. Be prepared tho for them not to have everything on the menu available.

This place is my go to when I want a fantastic bowl of pho. The service is incredible everytime and they're open so late! They have amazing prices and don't forget the extra plate of onion with vinegar!
Come here! You won't regret it one bit!

The service is good, everyone is super friendly.

I ordered pho, pork and shrimp spring rolls and eggs rolls.

The eggrolls were the really good ones rolled with rice paper and not the typical egg roll paper. I believe at some restaurants they're called imperial egg rolls. My favorite.
The spring rolls had actual lettuce and mint and not iceberg, yay.
The pho was filling and had a nice portion of meats.

It's not a fancy new pho spot like all the new ones that pop up, but honestly it's what i prefer. Good food, nice service and consistent quality.

My go to. Classic lil pho place with a no bs staff, they're simply there to provide amazing food. Considering the price, and late ass hours, Pho 54 on Brookhurst is the perfect, reliable, pho place to have in your back pocket.

Food is okay.
Less meat in the pho.
Service is awful.
Our server didn't speak well English.
Don't understand anything that we want.
Ambiance is okay.
Pho 45 is still my spot.

There's just something about a Vietnamese restaurant, where the service isn't the best, but it's tolerated if the food is good. This restaurant is exactly that. The servers are nice, but it's one of those things, once you get your food, that's it. If you need water or extra napkins, you would have to be the one that hunts them down.

I know good Vietnamese food when I see and eat it. They made really good vermicelli bowls and spring rolls. I ate everything! It was so yummy. I'm craving more of the food here. I will definitely come back when I am close by this area. Enjoy!
