My family and I've been coming here for years. There is so much memories here as we used to come here a whole lot more every Sunday for our family lunch. Everything still looks the same as before and you still see some of the workers that been here for so long. They are all very nice and quick to help you. Even though everything looks the same the food has changed a bit. The broth is not as flavorful as it once was but it's still not that bad. I've heard that they catered their recipe to the crowd that comes in nowadays. So that's why they're not as strong and flavorful as before. I don't eat here as much as I used to because the soup is not the same. We do come here every so often because we've been coming here for so long. A lot of times here I will go for other dishes than the pho. The three color dessert drink here is still awesome as always though.

Easily one of the best pho spots in San Diego. If you're not drawn by the smell wafting all the way into the parking lot, you'll certainly notice the line that's almost always out the door — this place is beloved by locals. Don't let the line scare you! They're constantly moving customers in and out at a very fast and reasonable pace. The food is authentic, delicious, well-portioned, and well-priced. If you're looking for dessert, there's some great options nearby, too!

Delicious mom-and-pop pho joint in Mira Mesa, San Diego! This place is a local gem, evident from the Yelp reviews and high ratings. When we arrived at 5:40 on a bustling Saturday evening, about five parties were ahead of us. Being just a party of two, my sister and I, it took roughly 15 minutes to be seated. The menu offers fantastic value for the incredible food quality. We shared a half-order of spring roll pork and tofu, complete with generous servings of peanut sauce - so yummy! I opted for the regular-sized vegetarian pho, while my sister ordered #11. The service was lightning-fast and highly attentive. They handled the rush with ease, promptly taking our order and delivering the food. Checking out was a breeze, no waiting around. Overall, it was a perfect 10/10 experience, and we’ll definitely be back for more.

Good pho in the area. Fast service and good value for money. Have done numerous takeout and eaten in a few times and quality is consistent. There is usually a wait for dining in but the line moves relatively fast.

Wait to get in, but it's faster than you think. Servers come fast and so does your pho. Lots of meat.

LOVEEEE this place. So glad to have a pho spot to enjoy in San Diego. You can smell the pho literally a whole parking lot away. It's very busy, but the service is so quick. The staff is incredibly attentive. They're quick to bus and help pass food. I love getting pho tai and fatty brisket. The broth comes out hot and flavorful. The aroma is amazing. I ate my whole bowl feeling satisfied and warm inside. Recommend 10/10.

Awesome pho, probably the fastest service every. We ordered egg rolls, spring rolls and special combo pho and the food came out before I was done washing my hands.

Pho Cow Cali is a classic for the pho enjoyers of Mira Mesa. The service is very quick and the pho is great, with all the condiments and herbs and your choice of protein. The drink menu is also extensive - I personally enjoy the fresh soda lemonade! Overall this is a great place for all parties of people and will definitely be coming again.
