Brightly lit and clean restaurant serving pho, bun and rice dishes. Large parking lot that is very busy, thus you might have to circle a few times to find parking in the evenings. I noticed the overhead lights which we also have in our home dining room - but with black trim - good taste! LOL. Three of us had: - Imperial Rolls (6) which come with all the veggies and lettuce for wrapping. The skin was nice and blistered unlike the Chinese smooth won ton skin wraps thus a nicer texture. Filling was decent and the rolls came out hot. - we also had the Spicy Beef Stew Pho, the Brisket Pho, and the Ox Tail Pho which is basically the beef combo (brisket, meatballs, tendons, raw brisket and a bowl of ox tail (2 medium sized pieces) on the side). The Ox Tail pho comes in a hot pot with noodles and ox tail on the side. Bean sprouts, peppers, mint, limes.. all included. All the flavors were good, the soups clean and not overly oily and the bowls , all one size, are big. Everyone took theirs home. Definitely recommended, especially for their good taste in selecting light fixtures. Service could be a little better though!

I got the beef short rib pho. To be honest the pho broth wasn't the best. I have had better pho broth, it wasn't as rich as I expected. The bun bo hue was probably my favorite! They also give you an option of doing thin noodles or flat noodles. The place itself is pretty big and they get pretty busy. Parking also sucks in this plaza. There's a lot of other places that get equally as busy so you just gotta get lucky with parking. Their wait list is a physical piece of paper and there was like 5 people ahead of us but still got in within about 10 minutes.

The canh bun was great! I really liked the rich, flavourful broth and the thick rice noodles with lots of toppings on top. The bun bo hue was good and came with lots of beef, but the broth was a bit too plain. The restaurant was clean and had lots of fancy gold decorations~ Service was quick and friendly as well.

Thank you, Golden Delight #2 for such an amazing first experience on 3/08/2025! We live almost 80 miles away and knew that there would be a LOT of great Asian options for dinner after finishing our errands of the day.. so I reached out to a friend who lives in the SGV and he suggested this happy find! We met him as an employee at a favorite Chinese restaurant in the SFV and became friends. Thank you to Tai, too! The restaurant is located in a shopping center with ample parking. It looks simple and unassuming.. had we not been aiming for it, we might not have noticed. The humble exterior gives way to the beautiful interior once you enter! A well lit and open layout, the decor is predominantly white with shiny and brushed golden accents. Unlike another Yelper's review, this place is immaculate (even the restrooms)! When we arrived, most of the tables were completely filled. We got there just in time and were able to be seated right away! The servers were all so friendly and attentive. By the time we left, there were at least a dozen parties on a waitlist. From the time we arrived and until we left, I believe we were the only non-Vietnamese patrons. IYKYK! The menu is extensive and includes photos with descriptions for those who aren't well versed in Vietnamese cuisine. Great prices, too! I wanted one of everything, it all looked so good. But we came in with a recommendation for our introduction to the restaurant. Tai told us to order Cơm tấm đặc biệt - 10 món (Golden Delight Special Broken Rice-10 items). It comes with their broken rice, soup of the day and mixed pickled vegetables. Oh, and their nước chấm dipping sauce is drinkable! Since the combo only comes with 1 cha gio (egg roll), we also ordered a side of them to avoid a fight, and we weren't sorry! A lot of food for the two of us to share, but we managed and got to try several different items! We have a favorite place in the San Fernando Valley that we love and hold far above all others.. but I'm here to say Golden Delight #2 is just as good! Maybe a little better because of their much more extensive menu and they have my beloved Salted Plum Soda. Their cha gio meets my approval with the crispy, blistered rice paper wrap vs the smooth wonton skin wrappers you find at many other places. I'll often pass on a new Vietnamese restaurant if I see those smooth egg rolls on Yelp. Excellent filling, plenty of fresh herbs on the side, romaine leaves to wrap - and I ordered extra rice papers to wrap the lettuce wrapped egg rolls. I know, a little redundant - but it was a trick taught to me by a hostess at another establishment and it's great for holding everything together while dunking! We wanted to try a dessert, but were just too full.. maybe next time! Driving across Valley Blvd, it looks like there are SO many yummy options to explore! To the locals, are you all aware of just how spoiled you are? I'm jealous!

Stop by for a late lunch. Food here is good. I like how their broth for the stone pot pho dac biet isn't too salty like most Vietnamese places. After a bowl of pho at any Vietnamese places, I would always be thirsty and tired. This one, not at all. The service was great. Our server went to check if the chicken curry had any fish sauce or seafood seasoning since my daughter is allergic to it. The server would go in to check with the kitchen staff. Which I think was very kind of her. The place is also big and clean. The downside is their restrooms. Being such a big restaurant with only two gender neutral restrooms is not enough. A customer was basically in the same restroom for over 20 min with only one other restroom available. It is very inconvenient for customers who needs to go badly. That is my only complaint other than that, all is good. I would come back but probably not any time soon.

Gold and marble everywhere. I felt like stepping inside the Trump Tower Lol. Fortunately, dining here won't cost you a fortune, as most items are in the $11-$16 range. Golden Delight Pho - a super value bowl of beefy goodness (beef tendon, tripe, brisket, ball, etc.) for only $15. It's so much food I could only finish half. Pork spring roll - three pcs for $11, very tasty specially with the sweet orangey dip sauce. Super friendly staff. Will definitely come back.

Finally came by Golden Delight #2. The place is clean and food is good like location #1 but they only have a limited Vietnamese menu at location #2 so no Pork Ribs & Pork Meat Balls with vermicelli (Bún Sườn Mọc) which is one of my go to's at #1 and there is also no Chinese food kitchen at all here. Parking lot is better than #1 but during a lunch or dinner rush, parking spaces may still be limited since there are other restaurants in this shopping center. Check out my pics!

Located in a very busy plaza so parking can be challenging on the weekends. I was lucky to find one quickly. Wait time to get a table was short. Staff were friendly and quick. The restaurant was bustling with people chattering. I tried the Golden Delight pho ($15.50) with the flat rice noodles. It comes in a hot stone. They served this very quickly. The noodles and sliced beef came out on separate plates. The broth was really rich and flavorful, not very oily. It was a good portion for the price. The quality of the beef was average though.

First time checking out Golden Delight, and it was a lovely dining experience. I came here around 7:15 on a rainy Sunday night, and there was no wait at all. The decor was very nice from first observation. The menu was pretty extensive, and took me a while before I could find what I wanted, which was the House Special Tomato soup (Canh Bun) and shared the banh beo with my girlfriend , while she got the bun bo hue. The turnaround time felt pretty quick for our dishes, and my god the portions were huge. I honestly regretted getting the banh beo, not because it wasn't good (it was pretty delicious and I liked the crispy bits), but because I only finished half of the canh bun. I feel like the noodle bowls here are enough for two people unless you did a 5k or did some intense workout before coming here. Anyway, I really enjoyed the canh bun as the soup was hearty and had a rich tomato flavor, packed with pork blood, fish cake, vegetables, meatballs, and other items. For $14.50, it's a pretty damn good value considering I have leftovers to eat for the next day. My girlfriend also really liked her bun bo hue and had to take home some of it as well. Service here was friendly and while interaction with them was minimal, they responded to our requests efficiently. I would definitely come back to Golden Delight to try their other dishes and their value/quality is a winner in my book.
