About

Thien Huong sits on the ground floor of Chinatown’s Far East Plaza and remains one of the plaza’s long-running Vietnamese rooms while newer concepts cycle through upstairs. Time Out, Eater LA, and The Infatuation point to clear chicken pho, lemongrassy bun bo Hue, and solid banh mi as everyday reasons to come. The dining room is small, daytime-oriented, and often full by late morning on weekends. It is a useful Downtown-adjacent stop when a Little Saigon drive is not on the schedule.

Menu highlights

Diners say

Public reviews praise consistent pho, fair prices, and a casual plaza setting. The same threads note limited hours, tight seating, and weekend waits if you arrive late. Diners who return usually want a reliable daytime Vietnamese meal near Downtown rather than a destination banquet.
