Pho Hung Cali

Pho Hung Cali in Chula Vista is a simple restaurant but the food was pretty good. I ordered seafood pho with vegetable broth along with spring rolls. The shrimp spring rolls were just okay but the pho was very clean tasting and had a nice light flavor. The portion was a good amount even for a regular size. The service was good and overall it was a nice meal.

Delicious food and top-notch service! I ordered the #46 broken rice with BBQ pork, and it was fantastic—the pork dipped in the sauce was bursting with flavor! But first, I spotted a mango smoothie on the menu, and it was absolutely divine, with fresh mango bits that took me right back to Thailand. Highly recommend for amazing service, perfectly cooked food, and that incredible mango smoothie!

The pho was absolutely delicious! The service was excellent, and the staff was incredibly kind, making sure my order was correct. Even though I ordered to-go, they offered me a table to wait at, which was thoughtful. I decided to take my phone call outside, and the best part was the wait time was reasonable, so I knew my food was being made fresh. To top it off, the woman brought my food out to my car, which was such a kind gesture. Overall, fantastic experience!

Best Vietnamese spot in Chula Vista. Always fast service. Free parking. Tried everything from the delicious Pho to Rice Vermicelli.

It was my first time at Pho Hung Cali in Chula Vista. My partner and I were hungry and Pho Hung Cali was on our way home. I walked inside and immediately felt space (too much of it) especially for the amount of tables that were inside of this restaurant. It could definitely use some Vietnamese decor, add some life to its walls and other areas. Entire place was clean. The outside could use some plants and should dispose of any trash/debris that’s been sitting outside of front entrance area. Now for food … All servers were attentive and polite, always ready to fill up our cup with water. The food came out in a timely manner, the right temperature and presentation. The pho meatballs soup was good, but meatballs were on the tough side. The chicken vermicelli was also good but the some of the chicken pieces were tough as well. The chicken wasn’t terrible, but it lacked seasoning. Definitely not as delicious as Pho Cow 7s in National City (best tasting chicken vermicelli in Southbay). In comparison to other Vietnamese restaurant’s price points, Pho Hung Cali should give a little more on portioning. The place appears to be getting their share of customers so they must be doing something right. Overall dining experience was good - 5 star service. Not sure if this is the Vietnamese restaurant I would recommend unless it’s the only one in Chula Vista. However, would not hurt to give it a try.

i went in just tryna eat my food and mind my business… then this cute guy shows up, about 5’8”-5’9”, slim, wearing a green shirt, looking all sweet and precious and single-handedly made me feral He kept checking on us the whole time, super polite and attentive, and even answered my stupid question like. Give him a raise for real. Anyway. I want him so bad. Why is he out here being adorable when I’m just trying to slurp noodles?? I also meant to give him a tip…a big one. I’m sorry boo I’ll be back next year for vacay I want you. I don’t know your name, you may not know me but I know you and I want ya For realsies tho, the food was AMAZING. This was my first time trying Pho and I loved it, it’s now my new favorite food

Still a great deal for the quality and quantity of food (especially if you can pay cash). Staff is very friendly and the service is quick. Next time I want to try the big bone pho with two large beef ribs!
