Getting Here
Twelve Minutes from Fountain Valley to Edinger and Gothard
Fountain Valley's southern border connects directly to Huntington Beach. Edinger Avenue is the shared artery between the two cities: take it west from the 405 and you're in Huntington Beach within minutes. Fire Pho is at the corner of Edinger and Gothard, in a strip center with free parking that wraps around the building. No time limit.
The drive runs about 6 miles and takes around 12 minutes from most of Fountain Valley. If you're coming south on Brookhurst Street, turn right on Edinger and continue west to Gothard. The steam coming out the door is the landmark.
The Broth
A City with Deep Vietnamese Roots, a Broth Built to Match
Fountain Valley has been home to one of Orange County's largest Vietnamese-American communities since the late 1970s, when tens of thousands of Vietnamese refugees settled in the area. The city borders Little Saigon's southern edge and sits a short drive from Westminster's restaurant corridor on Bolsa Avenue.
Fire Pho's broth is built for exactly that standard. Every batch simmers for 22 hours with marrow bones, roasted onion, and whole spices (star anise, cinnamon, cardamom, clove, coriander, and fennel), toasted before they go into the pot. The result is clear, not cloudy, with a depth that comes from time, not shortcuts.
