86'd?! How the hell do you get 86'd from this dump?! They've 86'd more people from here - NO WONDER WHY THE PLACE IS DEAD!!! I can hear the crickets from the parking lot!!!

Fosselman's Ice Cream Co.

Neighborhood: Alhambra
I am now 34 and I still get a hankering for Fosselmans. I dont have much of a sweet tooth but when I do, I come here.
All I can say is Butter Pecan!! And I say that with a smile.
I used to hang out at the Temrose and am known for bar hopping around SGV. Anyway, the Crest is such a DRAMA FREE - NO BULLSHIT bar (aside from Al's of course - they are ALWAYS at the TOP of my list) and the bar staff actually knows how to make a drink. I love the steak, I love the box and I like that fact there's a mix of people here. Not always the same faces (same faces in most cases = bar drama) and the blend of young and old people keep it lively.
Great place to go to start off a night out, to catch a game or to finish off with a night cap. :)
So I bundle up, get into my little car, get my chicken pho and drive home.
Unpacking it hmmm...Thats all? Why so skimpy? Maybe it'll expand. No. Not so much. OKAAAY...Maybe its really YUMMY!! Hmmmm...not so much. It's bland with a weird after taste. Its SOOO packed with MSG (my feet swelled the minute the spoon hit my lips), the chicken pieces (all 5 of them) were dark meat and they gave me a handful of sprouts!!
PH*K!!! This pho SUCKS!!!!
Never again will I cheat on Viet Huong. Never, never, ever!!
It's going to take me days to get rehydrated.

I recommend, recommend, recommend indeed!!
We went in on a Sunday, got a server who confessed he had a bad day. Whatever. We just want to eat!
Lets get to the eats: WHATS WITH THE GROUND PEPPERONI?! WHOA!!
They recommended this and we figured it was the house specialty, "this is what keeps them in business" and it sounded fun. What a mistake. The saltiest, spiciest peperoni the gave 3 days of heartburn!! I mean, I LOVE spicy, but chili spicy NOT this kind of spicy. I had 1 piece and a sorry excuse of a wet, soggy house salad. We had to ask three times for Parmesan cheese and by the time he remembered, our pizza was cold.
Just give me the check...I have a 40 minute drive home. All this way for that?!
I miss the old Gus'.
Highly recommendable!

Very, very good! The service was excellent, the staff was friendly and restaurant was CLEAN. The pho is delicious and the spring rolls are flavorful. The portions are no joke! One of the best pho places around.
These guys never mess up my order (#3 protein style extra veggies, easy sauce with chopped chilies.) their friendly and their prompt.
What more can you ask for?

Get your facts straight sweetie.
Posting while drunk is NEVER a good thing.
PS. USE SPELL CHECK.
