One of the BEST Vietnamese places I've been to! Love that the variety on the menu boasts more than just traditional pho and BBQ meat and rice. The family that owns this has been running it for over a decade and are super sweet and personable. Would absolutely recommend this place!
Best , always when we come to San Deigo , we , without fail visit , homely and nice food
Best Vietnamese food in Mira Mesa/San Diego & wonderful family owned you will feel very welcomed!!!
Great food - more than just Pho - with super fresh ingredients, prepared well and presented nicely. Gracious hospitality.
Great, delicious foods, and super fast services!!!
Great pho ga, but I should have ordered the item with veggies. Excellent crispy fried noodles with beef. Very delicious hot jasmine tea on a chilly night.
great food, great service, fairly priced, clean place and their fried spring rolls (not in photos) are legit like NY/NJ style!!
Amazing food. There's so much more to offer than pho here. I tried the egg crepe, chicken curry with thin noodle, and some wide noodle with ham roll.
I'll be coming back again to try the chicken pho. Definitely better than pho cow Cali to me.
Really attentive, sweet server, and the cleanest, most delicious tasting Pho Ga (chicken pho). It was much needed, and hit the spot while traveling!
Yall, come here for Pho Ga. I usually do rare steak, brisket, tendon pho, but I make the exception with this restaurant. Pho Ga here is bomb 🔥
I went during typical dinner hours, and the place was still pretty quiet. The service was fast, the portions were good, and the price was reasonable. I couldn't ask for more.
I been going to Bolsa for over 40 years. I follow them to Normal Heights Mable Street and still with them. No one makes Vietnamese food like them. I just read someone’s review, I give them 1 million star. The quality of food is A+++++. The family are awesome. Service is awesome and price of food as well. I wish I can eat there every day.
Delicious Vietnamese food and staff were very nice
Legit bun bo hue broth and eggrolls! Good vietnamese coffee
They should get a 100 stars! I been going there for over 20 years. Best Pho Soup. Chicken Stir fry with white rice. Best Vietnamese food ever.
Neighborhood, family-owned, gem. The place is super-clean, the food is excellent and priced very modestly. The staff are cheerful and helpful, whether you're Vietnamese or not.
The Pho was perfect and the spring rolls were so crisp and delicious! Everything tasted absolutely fresh. The owners were amazing people, very kind. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting good, full of flavor fresh food.
Great service, and huge variety of Vietnamese food.
I am in love with this place! My sister and I were wanting to try a new Vietnamese place and found Bolsa on Yelp, (thank you Yelp). We ordered egg rolls and vermicelli bowls and wow, we were impressed. The egg rolls were wonderful. You can tell they are home made and the taste is phenomenal, paired with the fresh lettuce and basil, they were heavenly. The buns were great as well. The noodles were cooked perfectly. I ordered the grilled pork with egg roll and loved the flavor of the pork. I've also ordered the beef and enjoyed it just as much. I've also tried the Thai Tea as well as the Pho broth and wow, I was blown away. The flavor of that broth was indescribable. I was sick and it was exactly what I needed for breakfast. This is a great little restaurant and I am so happy to have found it. I will keep coming back!
The beef broth is pretty good, unfortunately no tendon which is usually a staple in my pho. Great customer service

We were looking to have a fried rice yesterday and Yelp took us to Bolsa. What it seemed to be a family owned business ran by women from the cooks in the kitchen to the servers up front. There was also a gentleman, could be the owner, who helped to serve the food and greeted the customers.
The place is clean. The porcelain plates and utensils look brand new and spotless.
We ordered the spring rolls, shrimp fried rice and steak dice. We very much enjoyed the food. There was a good amount of flavorful shrimp in the rice. The steak was marinated well and the meat was remarkably tender and juicy. The spring rolls were neatly wrapped and everything in it was fresh and crunchy, although, the sauce could use a little more flavor.
We loved the music in the background, which made us feel relaxed. We also had a good conversation with one of the servers.
Overall we had a great experience and came out full. We'll certainly come back again next time.
Bolsa has been a staple in my family for over 25 years and it is the only Vietnamese restaurant we go to anywhere. The soups are all great, the appetizers like egg rolls and spring rolls are excellent and their main courses from sandwiches to pork chops to stir fry noodles are all well prepared. The service is absolutely spectacular and whether you are regulars or not, they treat you like family. I offer the highest recommendation of this restaurant.
This place not only has great Pho. But the people who own it are absolutely nice. While eating dinner with my family a homeless man parked his belongings outside and sat there. They saw and gave him drink and a plate of food. Instead of running him off they helped him. They are all so nice. I definitely recommend this place the food is great.
