Vietnamese Restaurants near Encino

“Yummy. I from out of state and was craving some papaya salad big time. Found this place on yelp and figured I try it. It was good. Not as good as back home in Minnesota but a lot better then what I expected. I also ordered their red curry. Spicy and yummy. It wasnt bland like most places are. I had it delivered and it came on time. They also threw in a yummy thai tea. Thanks!“

“Amazing superb customer service! I would actually hope so for this space having limited seating.Note: if you feel like trying more than one main dish split it (ex:pho) and you’ll have a solid amount of food, they are not stingy about their splitsBanh mi was delish and packed high! They get their bun from a bakery in Los Angeles.Spicy garlic tofu bites were good. Their homemade chili oil was good too!Pho was solid just wish they had a different type of noodle and didn’t cut it up so much when splitting. The noodles were so short and they were hard to grab with the chopstickMetered parking on Montana and it’s right next to the dry cleaners near the cornerVegetarian options: They have options that’s just veggies onlyParking: Paid Street meter parking“

“2024 update: dined in for the first time and was underwhelmed with the food. Chickpea curry is decent, kaya toast is decent. The dan dan noodles are straight up not good! Extremely salty and fatty. Skipped dessert (unheard of for me) because the main dishes already made me feel so heavy and unhealthy.2022 takeout review: The laksa is incredible. It is easily two meals (can serve two people). I'm not a spice person and this was at the upper end of my spice tolerance but not too spicy. A side of clay oven bread is really good to dip in it. My only complaint was I ordered takeout and my order was ready 15 minutes later than the original estimate.“

“Heard about this place through a friend. Then read about it in the news paper and the story about the owners was intriguing. Many good restaurants in this area. BUT This has a gourmet feel and taste. Ordered crab rolls and by far best ever. A must when visiting our before they realize what a amazing deal for this dish ?. Wish I could give more stars.“

“Delicious food for any vegan or non-vegan in your party. We ordered a full meal family style and everyone enjoyed every selection. I'm not sure how they make their vegan SPAM better than the original, but it is. Everything also tastes super fresh and well seasoned. Enjoy!“

“I ordered the grilled pork sandwich and it came out in less than 5 minutes. They put in a pretty generous amount of pork and pickled veggies, and the bread had a nice, crispy crust. The pork was a little too peppery for me but otherwise well marinated. I managed to find free street parking in the front and was able to grab and go quickly.“

“Must order: pork chop with rice, house special fried rice.I've tried a lot of Vietnamese restaurants in the Valley, and this place has the best pork chop. It's so good. The rice plate comes with some veggies and a fish sauce dipping sauce. The house special fried rice has a lot of different meats including Chinese sausage! Delicious.It's a clean restaurant, plenty of tables, and very friendly service. Parking is free and easy. Closed on Tuesdays. Highly recommend this hidden gem.“

“Takeout experience only since I'm a lazy lady. The vegan pho was phenomenal! Like better than any other Asian veggie soup I've had in AGES! Nice amount of veggies, flavorful broth, good portion, and it travels well. The stir-fried spicy lemongrass imitation beef is really good and has the best texture. I think it's a little too much lemongrass for me but we still get a portion every time we order. The mixed tempura is battered nicely! Always a hit. The stir-fried tofu and mushroom plate is so tasty but so small. I wish the portion size was a little bigger since neither of these ingredients is that expensive, ya know? I need to try a few other things on the menu. I've tried the vegetarian stir fried flat noodles, the vegetarian udon, the catfish stewed with green onion... these weren't bad, but they won't be my repeat order. Overall, I really enjoy their pho and this will be part of our regular rotation!“

“We've been coming here and getting takeout since we moved to the neighborhood 6 years ago and the food is always delicious. The Pho!!!! (We've had chicken, beef filet and the duck) is always amazing with beautiful, clear yet so flavorful broth. We also love the fried spring rolls with the chicken which we wrap in the lettuce leaves and dip into the delicious sauce. The whole chicken and pork chops are also excellent. The Hanoi style fish is always a star when we get it. The food is always super fresh. My only comment is sometimes they are a little stingy with the condiments and garnishes and we always have to ask for enough to enjoy the food but it's worth it because it never fails to please everyone.“

“Bun Me offers a satisfying dining experience with its flavorful Vietnamese pho noodles and other dishes.The ambiance is pleasant, and the staff is friendly and attentive. While the food was good, it didn't quite reach the level of excellence I was expecting. The pho broth lacked a bit of depth, and some dishes felt slightly underseasoned.However, the portions were generous, and the prices were reasonable. Overall, Bun Me is a decent option for a tasty Vietnamese meal, but there's room for improvement to truly stand out.Sources are Self service.“

“Food was great. They have a weird charging thing though about extra meat (you don’t get much extra) there was a guy blasting music next to me. I couldn’t enjoy my date. As well as the server barely coming to ask if we want a refill(it’s tap water for people like me who HATE sink water) we had to like chase them down for the check. And that took forever to come. Good food and place, very homey and cozy, bad service.“

“We have been going to this place since my daughter is 10yrs old. New owner upgrades the place looks so amazing, very clean and bright. The staff are very friendly, fast service and accurate taking orders. Food so delicious everything is fresh. Price very reasonable or I should say affordable. When we are lazy to prepare our dinner, just go straight to Bale Valley. I highly recommend Bale Valley to you all, those who been to this place 100% agreed with me.“

“I was in the area for work & placed a pick up order for a vegetarian banh mi. So good! And it was $10 which I think is a great price. Easily one of the most flavorful Banh Mi I’ve had in a long time. I loved the addition of enoki mushrooms, as most places only do tofu.“

“Great food, service and atmosphere. I ordered egg rolls as an appetizer followed by extra large combination beef which was served across from me. I also ordered the beef pho with avocado smoothie that included bolba. Everything was delicious.“

“If you want a ton of meat, I recommend getting the short rib pho S3. Literally four times the beef that you'd get from a normal steak pho but just a couple dollars more. I was told they don't have a large version and I can see why-- I was expecting a single small rib but got two large ones surrounded by giant chunks of meat. The noodles barely fit into the bowl given how huge the ribs were, and the meat was pretty darn good to boot.Hopefully they keep this as the standard portion!“

“We ordered, duck laab, beef laab, nam tok, banana leaf fish, beef noodle, sausage, papaya & skewers, they were all so delicious! We were so eager to eat, we didn't even take before photos. The lady taking our order was super nice as well.“

“Absolutely incredible food! Their shrimp pho is both cheap, delicious, and is offered in huge portions! Their shrimp spring rolls are amazing too! The fried pork rolls are good as well, not too deep fried at all.Additionally, the service & atmosphere were both amazing as well!! We always receive our food less than 10 minutes after we sit down, and the restaurant is decorated beautifully!“

“Great food! We had food from Greenview Thai and had it Delivered. Fast delivery Drunken noodles with chicken - very good ! Pad see ew with chicken - very good Vegetable fried rice with tofu no egg - very good. I don't eat meat or eggs and a lot of places when they make Fried rice with no egg it tastes very dry and not good. Greenview made the best fried rice without egg I have ever had! I can't wait to go back. It was so good. Sorry no pictures ! We were really hungry and ate right away Thank you for the delicious food ! We will definitely be back again and again.“

“The staff is so kind and the food is absolutely amazing! Super affordable and they play good music. I will definitely be frequenting this place again. It’s a really feel good environment and the energy is great. Thank you guys so much ♡“

“I've been coming here for so long. This might be the best Vietnamese Sandwich shop in town. It's authentic Vietnamese for sure. They also bake their bread in-house and I've overhead other customers raving about it, sometimes coming in just to buy the bread! Also, try their Vietnamese coffee with your sandwich! I love that they sell other items at the counter in addition to their sandwiches; banh gio, cha lua, banh bot loc, just to name a few. In gacy, I'm craving their food as I'm writing this review! There is indoor seating available, parking is limited but it seems like most customers get their food to go so parking doesn't seem to be an issue.“

“I love Pho and am very hard to please when it comes to a good pho. I have been to many pho restaurants and have not been impressed at all. The West Hills Pho 1, however, despite being much more distance than many others close to me are my ideal pho place. It's a clean and nice place, the food is served so quickly within few minutes of ordering, the quality and amount of pho served is wonderful, I order chicken pho, there was such generous amount of chicken white meat in there, generous amount if the soup, noodles, fresh mung bean sprouts, fresh basil, fresh and juicy lemon halfs which I asked for, I love lots of lemon juice in my pho. This is by far THE MOST DELICIOUS AND BEST PHO I HAVE EVER TRIED.“

“This is my new favorite hidden gem for authentic Vietnamese food. They also have dishes that other Viet restaurants do not have on their menu. My daughter is a vegetarian and was beyond satisfied with the vegetarian Pho and eggrolls; which was the best I ever had.“
