Vietnamese Restaurants near Commerce

“It was fantastic to find a Lee's sammy shop in this area. The BIG downside is that in the middle of the afternoon there were 3 jacked up sketchy bums in the parking lot. I hesitated to get out of my car because of their movements. I can fight off 2 but not 3. It was very disturbing. But anyways my gluttony got the best of me so i braved it. Good service from the lady working hard making the tasty sammies. I do feel your cutting too far back on the meat. Stop being cheap.“

“The owner was very kind and welcoming, and the service was impressively fast.

My friend and I ordered the grilled shrimp noodle soup and Thai tea boba milk—both were amazing! The shrimp were big and fresh, and the soup broth was so rich and flavorful. Highly recommend!“

“Such a cute little space with a great ethical commitment and excellent food! I brought my partner here to grab a quick lunch to go. We each got a banh mi (I got the lemongrass chicken, no mayo, and they got the pork) and a sparkling limeade. The person who took our order was super friendly and the food came out fast. We were both impressed by just how big the sandwiches were and how much protein was on them! And the limeade was incredible - just slightly sparkling with a hint of saltiness.“

“Excellent food and great service. Family owned and my favorite local eatery. Please try it.“

“If you’re looking for great pho, this Vietnamese restaurant absolutely delivers. The broth is rich, aromatic, and perfectly balanced, with deep flavor that tastes like it’s been simmered for hours. The noodles were fresh, the meat was tender, and the portion size was generous. Everything came out hot and beautifully prepared, with fresh herbs that really completed the dish. Service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. This is easily one of the best places around for a satisfying bowl of pho, and I’ll definitely be back again.“

“Although the restaurant is often crowded, the wait staff are usually responsive and able to attend to customers' needs.“

“1st time trying Pho Waffle and Grill. It's a small place but as usual small places have the greatest of foods. I ordered the Salmon Bowl and also the Beef Pho to go. You can also pre-order or just drive on thru their drive thru. Will definitely come back again! Broth was perfect and so was the salmon. Oh and got cheese ragon as well.

If it's raining and you want some warm pho. This is the spot for you. Close to South Gate, Lynwood, Bell Gardens, Downey and Paramount. It has drive thru and a small mom and pop restaurant that should definitely be supported for the great food. Had Beef Pho and Shrimp Pho, with Creamy ragoons and Veggie Egg rolls topped off with Tai Tea. Yum!!! #TheSpot“

“Can't believe I've slept on this restaurant for years.

The food does the talking here.

1. Steamed Rice Cakes with Taro 4/5
2. Spring Rolls with Chicken 5/5, an herbaceous dish, served with a subtly spicy fish sauce
3. Shaking lamb cubes 5/5, great with the Italian red
4. Weaving rice noodle with fish 5/5, the fried shallots pop in this dish
5. Clay pot rice with fish 10/5 - just get this

The remodeled interior is very welcoming, modern, and has interesting art and motorbikes from Vietnam. Classical music in background (chef's kiss).

Also great that the place serves demi-bottles of reasonably priced wine. Beer's great too.

Our server exuded hospitality, very attentive, and proud to tell us about the chef/restaurateur.

Thanks for having us. We'll be back!“

“Best Pho place around. You know a place is going to hit when they have large sauce bottles
On the table . As soon as we stepped in we were greeted , which I appreciate considering many places leave u standing there awkwardly. The music level was on point , low enough to talk loud enough to appreciate. The staff is very kind , they give off family vibes . Food came out quickly and hot . We’ve been here several times so this review is long overdue . The pics I took before we left . Next time I’ll do a before and after not just an after ….. Two enthusiastic thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍“

“Excellent bahn mi! Pictured is the classic cold cut sandwich that comes with a deliciously salty sauce on the side. The bread is the ideal texture of crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. If you love bahn mis, this place will not disappoint! The staff is also very friendly.“

“Small little place with only a small bench to eat outside. I usually just get a. Sandwich and a coke and eat it in the parking lot, sitting on the wall in a sunny spot-And I have a great time.

I call this a win. I have the same thing every time. I know I should try something new. Next time maybe“

“Being from Australia visiting los angeles I've read the reviews about this place And thought I would give it a go and guess what they were right best Pork Ba Mi I ever had the gentleman on the door was very accommodating and friendly would go here again anytime without a doubt also very reasonably priced 😉“

“Best bánh mì sandwich I ever ate. I had the #8 charbroiled pork. So good!! Very highly recommend this place.“

“delicious and fresh Nice place too.“

“Service was fast, friendly and very helpfull....food was also great by the way. I came on a weekend and it was very busy and had to wait but still was well worth it.“

“Nem Nướng Khánh Hoà is widely praised for its authentic Vietnamese cuisine and warm atmosphere. The restaurant’s specialty is nem nuong cuon, a dish of grilled pork meatballs wrapped in rice paper and served with fresh herbs and vegetables. The dish stands out for its flavorful, fresh grilled pork and the crunchy texture of the accompanying ingredients“

“loved eating there with pops“

“Went there for breakfast around 10am and it was nice and empty. Food came out fast and tasted good. Came with a lot of basil and cilantro. They have an extensive menu. Only downside is the parking directly behind the restaurant is limited to 5-6 spots. If it’s full you have to park in the parking garage“

“It's easily the best Banh Mi joint in all of SoCal. This place tops them all. The attention to detail is superb. They come individually packaged in a box, sauce, and veggies on the side to keep the sandwich crisp. Bread made in house, probably, based on the way the bread has irregular edges and the overall quality. Bread is soft and light in the middle and extra crispy on the outside. The best sandwich here is the Roasted Pork. Listen, there's the usual dry roasted pork you get from those roasted duck houses, and then there's this. All you foodies know what im talking about. This roast is simply done right. It's crispy and light skin around soft juicy meat and fat. No hard glass shards breaking off a over done wet roasted pork belly here. It's roasted to perfection. You know it's cooked at a perfect 165 to retain the juices. The chef really really knows what he/she is doing. Don't expect all meat and no fat. It's not a bourgeois place. And dont expect a 12 dollar rip off. It's not that either. It's a wholesome mom and pop join that service fair priced $7.50 specialty sandwiches that you can't even compare to quality in Vietnam's best joint. Come here with confidence, it's simply the best Banh Mi in all of Southern California. I'm willing to bet the best for its price in all of the US and Vietnam combined. Go try it and you will definitely agree. I challenge anyone to prove me wrong.“

“The banh xeo is top notch here. Both the shrimp and fish ones are great! It's so crispy and comes with lots of fresh veggies. Its even crispy and perfect when I get take out! A little pricey but it's a good portion. There is a $1 credit card fee so bring cash. I love this place so much, if only they opened for dinner!“

“Extremely nice workers and the food was amazing. Spring rolls, summer rolls, and pho tai were all outstanding.“

“mMMmmmMM! Oh baby the cheese! The cheese sticks are absolutely fantastic! The small Pepperoni Lovers pizza is absolutely TIGHT and will definitely get again! A lil heavy on the sauce for myself but the crust is perfect 😛 the ranch is thick and not cheap. 10/10 I'll be back 😎“

“Our first time ever Trying the Vietnamese food! One word ; THE BEST!!“

“I was always curious about sandwiches sold at pho restaurants, and this place was my first. I will say it was a fantastic sandwich. I enjoyed every crispy bite with all the veggies in the sandwich followed by the rich savory fat taste of the pork belly. The service was pretty good too, I chose a table that was “dirty”, unintentionally, and the server cleaned it before I could mention it and bought me ice cold water as if he knew I was thirsty. Everything about this little hidden spot, on the second floor of the mall, was great.“

“Blossom never disappoints for delicious, fresh Vietnamese food in the heart of China Town. Everything we've ordered has been yummy. Service is also excellent and professional. We make a point to eat here whenever we make it to downtown LA. The atmosphere is really laid back and chill. Love this place.“

“Fresh and good nice people“

“We absolutely love this restaurant! It's one of our all-time favorite places to eat, and a spot our whole family enjoys coming back to again and again. The service is always top-notch—everyone is so kind, welcoming, and friendly. This will forever be one of our go-to places! ❤️“

“The food was amazing, very hot and a lot of food for the price. I was not able to finish the house special but it was just as good the next day. The veggies were very fresh and the noodles and meat were great. The broth itself was amazing!
The Thai tea and beef rolls were fantastic, I had to order another Thai tea to go because I couldn’t get enough!
The flavor of the food was great and it is definitely one of my new favorite spots for pho. Will and have recommended to anyone looking for a good authentic pho spot!“

“It's a one man band, so it took awhile for us to get our food. You will need patience. But when it comes out, it was so worth it! Next time I'd try calling and order ahead, or order a takeout. There's a lot next door that has zero marking, but you can park there.“

“Back in October, my friends and I spent a month vacation in Vietnam and we were introduced to Com Tam. We wanted to see if King Com Tam Vietnamese Restaurant is as authentic as we had in Vietnam.

Com tam - Vietnamese broken rice is rice that was broken during the milling process. If you're unfamiliar, broken rice has a couscous-like texture. The broken rice plate options might seem extensive, but it's just rice with various combinations of pork chop, beef, pork, fried bean curd with shrimp paste, egg roll, sausage, shredded pork and skin, and steamed egg loaf. All served with veggies, a small bowl of broth, and fish dipping sauce. The plates run from $12.99 to $20.99 for the 10-item plate. If you don't see exactly the plate combination you're looking for, you can just tell the waiter which items you want and they'll charge accordingly. Just ask if you can swap items.

Not Vietnam authentic, but then again I am no expert but definitely satisfied our cravings and brought back memories of our month long trip. We loved it so much that a month ago during the rainy weather that we went back so we can try the noodle soup/pho. The portions were generous for around $13.99 a bowl. I was craving Bun bo Hue, Vietnamese spicy beef noodle soup and my friends ordered beef pho and hu tieu, a Vietnamese Phnom Penh-style seafood noodle soup with pork and shrimp. It was good but I've had better.

Service was good. The ambiance and presentation is spot on.“

“Closed to home 25 miles but better than go to Santa Ana 45 miles. Food taste 3.9 Cleanness 4 Atmosphere 3.9 Huge place, clean and perfect bathroom“

“I came back yesterday to enjoy their delicious foods. The owner is always kind and friendly with all customers and the staffs. When you pay, must fill in your phone number to get bonus point, they have free duck or soup depent how many points you have. I wish his business is always busy and wish all the staff all the best things on new year.“

“Found this hidden pho spot in Pico Rivera and was pleasantly surprised! It’s a small restaurant but very clean with a fresh, modern vibe and trendy music. Everything looks new, which made the experience even better.

The server was attentive at the start, though he didn’t come back to check if we needed additional refills. The dumplings were on the smaller side and a bit pricey, but they were packed with flavor and definitely worth trying. The pho itself was hot, delicious, and very satisfying.

Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back to try more items from the menu. This place is worth checking out if you’re in the area!“

“Get the Cơm Bò Lúc Lắc or (shaking beef) and thank me later. Described by my boyfriend as “one of the best things he’s ever eaten” this meal was a 10/10. The meat was so delicious and veggies so fresh - they worked together perfectly.“

“Great food. Love their Banh Mi and Spring Rolls.“

“The atmosphere of the restaurant is relatively simple but comfortable. The waiters are friendly and provide fast service.“

“Great Vietnamise food. Food it really delicious and the owner is very nice.“

“The Tofu Spring Rolls are good, but lacking flavor. Me personally, I like peanut butter, but the Hoisin Sauce with Peanut Butter had a weird aftertaste. The pork chop was nice and charred, but also lacked some flavor. The vermicelli (noodles) is a nice filler. Great service, and overall nice interior, the only real problem is being crammed with space.“

“We brought twins there to Have lunch. They were very accommodating and provided high chairs, children bowls, utensils and covered water cups with straws“

“es deliciosa la sopa y todo y los empleados muy hamables y lo mejor que hablan español. 👌“

“The food is very good here, and the service is great. When I lived in Monterey Park, I went there many times. I came back from San Diego, and the food is still very good. I like crab udon (bánh canh cua) the most because it's much better than any Vietnamese restaurants I've tried. Highly recommended.“

“The food was perfect and the service was excellent! We don’t live close by. We were just visiting the San Gabriel Mission. However, whenever we go back to the area, we will definitely come back!“

“I was seated as soon as I walked thru the door. As soon as I looked up from my menu, someone came to take my order. I went to the bathroom, sat down and my food arrived within 5 minutes of me parking my car. These guys are always so fast and the food is always delicious.“

“me gustó la sopa y los apps“

“This is hands down my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in SGV. I’ve lived here for 25 years, and this place has been my go-to for a long time. The food is always fresh and delicious, and the restaurant is super clean. I always get the dry vermicelli — the lemongrass beef is packed with flavor, and the shrimp rolls are crispy and so good. They’ve got a nice variety of beers too, which makes it a fun spot to hang out with friends. The owners are always around, super friendly, and you can tell they really care about keeping the place in great shape.“

“Recently opened its door in the Temple City, Kim Hoa Hue Restaurant is the new culinary destination for Vietnamese cuisine lovers. Having moved to Temple City, it stands proudly across from Summer Roll, inviting diners to embark on a gastronomic journey to Vietnam’s former imperial capital.

The restaurant’s specialty, Bun Bo Hue, is a testament to the authentic flavors of Huế. This Vietnamese beef noodle soup, known for its spicy and robust taste, is served in a generous portion brimming with succulent meat. The rich and aromatic broth leaves a lingering warmth that is both comforting and invigorating.

For those eager to explore the breadth of Huế’s culinary landscape, the Hue Combo is a must-try. This dish is a culinary mosaic, showcasing the region’s famous noodle-based delights. It’s an ideal choice for newcomers and connoisseurs alike, offering a sample platter of Huế’s pride.

While the Bun didn’t quite meet expectations, it holds promise. A tweak in noodle texture to achieve that coveted al dente bite, paired with a more traditional Vietnamese egg roll, could elevate this dish to new heights.

The Pho presents a soulful broth that sings with depth and clarity. However, the noodles yearn for a bit more finesse to match the soup’s excellence.

Service at Kim Hoa Hue is attentive and earnest, although a broader grasp of English would enhance the overall experience. For now, Google Translate bridges the communication gap, adding a touch of modernity to the dining experience.

The ambiance is as fresh as the flavors, with a bright and contemporary setting that promises growth and refinement. Kim Hoa Hue Restaurant is a welcome addition to the neighborhood, offering a slice of Huế’s regal cuisine with every dish. With a few culinary tweaks, this establishment is poised to become a cornerstone of the local food scene.“

“The tumeric fish noodle is one of my favorite dishes in Los Angeles. The flavor combinations are perfect, it is so well cooked and just feels like true comfort food. I order it whenever I’m needing a little love. Thank you Viet Noodle Bar.“

“I love pho. This pho is good. Also, for no reason they have amazing rice dishes and freshly made banh mi - way to go K5!

One time I walked in and witnessed a woman whose only objective in life was to sing one song for Pho enthusiasts. Nobody stopped her. She finished and just walked away. This staff is dedicated to serving you food, nothing will deter them from this goal.“

“Out of all the businesses that exist in this small plaza in Cerritos, Soup Shop has to be one of the best. Walking up to the front of the restaurant, I felt a little uncomfortable because there were so many people waiting for a table outside. I put name down for two and was told it would be a 25 minute wait but didn’t even end up waiting the whole 25, they had the table ready pretty quick.

After sitting down, we both ordered our pho and the food was out in less than ten minutes. I had the combination and my friend ordered the oxtail with a bone on the side. They were both amazing. Considering the price you pay, which most of the pho bowls here are over 15$, the portion makes it absolutely worth it. On top of that, you get unlimited noodle refills to eat with your soup. I have never had this before at any pho restaurant but it was a welcome change haha.

Our server was also very accommodating. He brought me a glass of hot water because I didn’t want ice water and he also checked on us repeatedly to make sure we were doing okay.“

“I always get the grilled beef cause no one has "GRILLED" beef pho that I've seen. it is really good. Only thing different this time is the meat was a tougher than it has been before. Hopefully, it is only this time cause it is usually tender.“
