“Came here and found a hidden gem. Probably one the best Banh mi in town. I got the chicken Bahn Mi and the beef Pho and that was spectacular too. Super fresh bread really delicate taste on the Pho. A lot of love goes into the food here you can tell.
Come eat here !“

“Amazing food. Delicious spring rolls. Baked goods.“

“Excellent food and very friendly service. One of our favorite Vietnamese restaurants now ! Definitely recommend 😊“

“First time eating there, very nice place food was delicious and the servers was great 😊“

“Best I’ve had outside Vietnam!“

“I got the banh khot tom and they were so gooood! Light and crispy, goes so well with the sweet and sour fish sauce, remember me of the banh khot I had in Vung Tau a long time ago. A reminder to tell the cashier how much you want to tip as they can only add it before coming to the total bill, unless you do it in cash.“

“They have the best Canh Chu Ca! Really really. My family has been going for years. We crave it. When we tried to go on a Tuesday and they were closed we went elsewhere but it just wasn't as good. Mirada cooks the fish so that it is still so succulent. The flavor of the broth is perfectly balanced and tart. Please give this place a try for healthy Vietnamese food.“

“I’ve been coming to dine at this establishment with my family for over 15 years now, and the food has remained consistent this whole time. I ordered one of their broken rice dish combos, and it was amazing, just as I remembered, having as a kid.“

“My Favorite Dish: Ca Nuong Da Don (Crispy Grilled Fish) The Best in Orange County.“

“I've been dining in Little Saigon for 20 years and have never been here as it is tucked behind Dennys.we ordered the egg noodle special. Wow! The presentation was yummy. Took sip of the soup and wowowo what an amazing aroma of flavors. The soup base taste was.just amazing. The egg noodle was fresh and bouncy. After this amazing bowl.of egg noodle we concluded this is the best egg noodle restaurant in Little Saigon.“

“The bún bò huế tasted not as spicy as I had thought it would be since I do not handle spice that well. The service was pretty quick, due to not many people in the restaurant around 7pm on a Wednesday. If you are planning to use credit card, they have a minimum purchase of $25 or more (don't know if they are going to change this in the near future) and the parking is free.“

“Great selection of delicious vegan food. Server was accommodating and gave great recommendations for our kiddos.“

“I went here today for a late lunch/early dinner.I was craving banh cuon and I remember an old friend saying this place sold it. I bought a pound of each option. I think it was something like 5.99/lb for plain and 6.99/lb for meat? It came with bean sprouts and sauce but I stopped by green farm market to grab some more veggies and assembled a bowl for myself at home.Additionally, I got a banh bao and baguette and mayo+pate($4.5) & cha chien ($7) . All totaled about ~$27 and i got approximately 6-8 meals out of it.The baguette was really good and flavorful, I could smell the butter. My neice really liked the cha chien , she kept asking for more.They also take card !! Definitely would come back :)“

“A hidden boba shop that just happens to serve pho and other food options. They don't specialize in pho and only have one variety (prime rib pho), but it slaps and is jam packed with meat! Only 10 bux and comes with a free small drink of your choice.

Unfortunately I had to deduct a star for lack of consistency. The pho ranges from amazing to just average, and I suspect it depends on the time of day. Try to come in the mornings.“

“Excellent value. Lunch dishes are modestly priced & are very well done. I had the beef rib pho in a large bowl with a wonderful side of fresh vegetables to put in the pho. I was there on a business lunch- I'll definitely take my wife here for lunch“

“Delicious! I had the crispy pork belly wraps, the seafood tom kha pasta and a coconut matcha drink. All were absolutely beyond expectations. The service is spectacular! Shout out to our server Young for the recommendations and great amicable service. On top of it all, the space is very beautiful and inviting.

Aaand, I was a klutz and spilled my coconut matcha...I was devastated because I hadn't had much and I made a disaster. Shout out to Robert for calmly helping out with a smile...he cleaned the entire mess AND brought me a whole new drink which he didn't have to do!“

“This is my favorite raw vegan restaurant! They also have a large menu of cooked vegan (or maybe that should be the other way around). I haven't tried their cooked food, but it looks absolutely delicious! I have not been to LA or the area in many years, and I am missing Au Lac!“

“Warm light, wood accents, and the soft hum of a dining room that feels unhurried. You catch the aroma of simmering broths and fresh herbs as you sit. The room reads welcoming and polished, a neighborhood spot that treats dinner like a small occasion.

• Kid friendliness: Comfortable for families, quick pacing and shareable plates.

Final Take
Refined comfort with clarity and heart. Five stars for flavor, kindness, and a room that makes you want to linger for one more conversation.“

“This place is my go-to spot for pho, especially when I’m craving chicken pho. I remember when they were in their original tiny location with only a few tables and even had to build a small shack just to expand. They outgrew that space fast, and this new location makes total sense.

The current spot is modern, clean, and sleek with plenty of tables, so they can actually handle the crowd now. What really keeps me coming back, though, is the broth. It’s clean, light, and incredibly fresh. You don’t walk out feeling heavy or sluggish, just satisfied. That’s hard to find with pho, and they do it right every time.“

“CONGRATULATIONS .... FÉLICITATIONS“

“One if the best Pho's in the area hands down. The broth is VERY hot which i love. Ive had the chicken, beef, and shrimp pho and all are consistenly good. The noodles are firmer than most places but it works well since the soup is very hot and the noodles don't turn to mush.“

“Its a pleasantly surprise food experience. We like its fusion taste.
My husband wanted to try this restaurant just because he likes it largefolded front door LOL. I didnt want to because I heard not so good reviews from my co-worker. 3rd time the charm, I decided to fulfill his wish :).
Its Chinese but with a little Vietnamese twist and so food is not too oily. I really like their Szechuan chili oil, their side sauce. The tingling sensation it left on your tastebud but not too overwhelming is a nice add to your dishes. Chasiu is a tad sweeter what you think chasiu taste should be. Its seasoning by maple syrup, light soy sauce, miso made it sweet, but what I like is its smokiness and lightly salted. Fried rice is fragrant and soft. The salted egg lava bao was really good, but it could be better if they could keep it warm like how other disum places do.
Overall, I would come back.“

“I usually get Pho Ga n tried a noodles 🍜 dish today...
No good unless you
❤ a plateful of noodles 🍜.
I think it was either #4 or #5...
Been going for 18 plus years .
The BEST pho 🍜 in California n reasonable 😋“

“We came in an hour or so after they opened on a Friday and there was only one other table occupied.

The food was amazing!!! We ordered the spicy cajun edemame, crispy pork, and tom yum seafood fried rice. All three dishes were wonderfully prepared! Great job to the chefs!

The only thing lacking was the service, but the staff was young, but I would venture to guess that they will learn and the service will get better in time.

We will definitely be returning soon and recommend giving them a try!“

“Lee’s Sandwiches is a classic. If you're craving Vietnamese coffee, this is the spot. It’s sweet, creamy, packed with caffeine, and ice cold. I've been coming to this location since I was a kid and they've always had a lot of customers. It's still here too which goes to show you how good this particular location is.

Their banh mi are always tasty and consistent. Prices have gone up a bit over time, but it’s still a reliable go-to when you want something satisfying and quick.“

“Had a good experience at this THH. It was a great spot for a quick bite and they had a large selection of ready made foods. We just got a few different banh mi. My son and husband got bbq pork and lemongrass beef. They said the pork was the way to go. I had the fried shrimp and really enjoyed it. We also picked up some spring rolls. The Vietnamese iced coffees are nuclear strong, but super good. My husband has tried other locations and said this one is different and has more ready-made foods. It was pretty busy when we went there. I would go back. I saw a lot of things I want to try next time.“
