Pho Royal - Lemon Grove, California

Low key place to get basic pho and vermicelli. Food is fine but nothing really stood out as being unique or special. The flavors don't really "pop" to make it memorable. The tofu was a bit bland. Service was lacking. Upon entering, we weren't greeted so much as ordered to go find a table. Our appetizers came out after we were half way done with our entrees. Might be better to do takeout.

Almond milk was an extra $1
Boba in the boba tea was another $1

I know places make you pay extra for those options but the drink tasted so bleh that I regretted buying it at all, and paying the extra to customize.

We ordered take out here for the first time and it was amazing. We got 2 spicy beef and 1 chicken Pho dishes. The amount of food for the price was amazing!! The flavors were all on point. I was skeptical because of other reviews online but was quite shocked with the amount we actually received. They had our food ready in 10 minutes and it was piping hot (which is exactly what you want) everything was delicious the staff was super friendly. The ambiance when I walked it was cute and very traditional. It looks like the boba place next door which had a pass through to this restaurant is closing down sadly, but I am excited to come in and sit down next time. Cute little spot, amazing Pho we will be back!

Our first time there the food was delicious the music coming from the TV was unfortunately a little too loud we had to sit right by the TV and it was hard to keep a conversation with the music blaring that loud other than that the service was fast and the food was excellent definitely go back but not sit under the television set somewhere else

This place had delicious food and fast service. We ordered Pho, Pad Thai and Boba Smoothies. For an appetizer we had Japanese Shumai. Everything we ate was very good but it was the Pho 🍜 that had us agree to come back and try the other choices on their menu. It’s located within one of those little cluster of stores and restaurants that most would drive by. Try not to drive by this place if you’re hungry as you’d miss out on some great appetizers and filling meals.💕🍒🥰

Was working in the area and wanted to eat some pho, this place caught my eye cause it was the only pho place I saw. The pho was really good and the portions was more than I could finish unfortunately. Here’s my personal dislikes of the place. I found that the pho base was but salty for my taste but most folk like it like that. My last dislike is that they did not provide enough napkin. At least provide napkins so customers don’t have to ask for more. A good thing is that waiter did take care of me which is a plus. Overall this place is worth the try if your in the area or just wanting to explore.

Been coming to Pho Royal for years and I'm never dissatisfied. Pho is top tier and the they have the best Thai Tea with boba I've ever had. Highly recommend.

Pho is phenomenal! I’ve had it probably 10 times. Super fast at least on the pho every time I’m there. Staff is super nice! Oldies music is good. High recommend!!
