50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Placentia

“Great service and great tasting Pho. My kids love it here“

“One does not simply order Pho from any regular reataurant. During the chill of the winter months, one's pho must not only be hot enough to warm ones stomach, but the flavor must be equally satiating. Ladies and gentlemen, if you have been tired of subpar pho with equally poor service, I am glad to announce yo you all that your search for the best pho you've ever had is over.Not only is the broth steamy hot, but the specific flavoring this family restaurant utilizes is spectacular. You can tell that it is freshly made and that much effort has been expended to curate the best flavored broth I've EVER HAD. As a pho enjoyer, I can't believe I've never been here before.And if that is not enough, the lovely hostess/waitress, who is also part of the family that owns this business is the kindest and warmest soul I've ever had tend me at a Pho restaurant. The service is prompt, warm, and delivered with care. She's also very humorous and will engage with you in a little small talk!God bless this place. Do yourself a favor and warm yourself up with the most spectacular pho you've ever had.“

“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk“

“Literally the best food around! pork vermicelli and fried tofu! their pho! everything is top tier !!!!! we moved to oregon and miss this food so much haha! the best! hands down!“

“I'm really impressed with this restaurant. Not only is the food delicious, but the atmosphere is also very pleasant. The Beef Stew I tried yesterday was extremely flavorful, but what I liked most was the enthusiastic and friendly service.“

“My friend brought me to this restaurant, and I didn't know what to order because the menu was a delightful surprise, filled with a rich and diverse selection of dishes. The staff highly recommended the lomo saltado-it was an explosion of flavors❤️?“

“Food is good, service is prompt. A shame is parking lot is a bit too small.“

“Delicious!!! Always so good. 😋“

“I was craving banh xeo this morning but the rest of my family was asleep so I went solo to Bánh Cuốn Tây Hồ 2. When I first entered I thought it was interesting that they had pitchers of tea on every table. Then when I got my banh cuon and they didn’t give me any nuoc mam I realized the pitcher must be nuoc mam. Yes, I probably ordered too much but their name sake includes banh cuon so I figured I just had to have it and my banh xeo that originally brought me out here. Yummy place. They also tolerated my terribly accented Vietnamese ordering :-)“

“Food is highly quality. Everything is made to order the owners are very nice and caring. I absolutely loved the pho here extremely tasty. Spring rolls, on the other hand, lacked a bit. There were ok, but other places have better spring rolls, but I do recommend trying out this location“

“What can you ask for more than a legit Pho with very amazing spicy paste? This place probably is the best Pho around town. Their Shaken Beef with fried rice paper is amazing. Would love to see them brining back the Pan Fried Egg noodles with seafood. Please keep up the good work.“

“Great Food and in small restaurant could see large groups we had two tables of 7“

“Quick service and delicious, fresh egg rolls! Probably the best egg rolls I’ve ever had! They were flavorful, crispy, definitely tasted fresh and not frozen. Highly recommend! Best part is they sell by small pieces so you can literally just buy 3 if you just want a small bite.“

“really great milk tea along of choices and Vietnamese food“

“If you're a pho lover, this place is a must visit. The broth is deep and savory, and the beef practically melts in your mouth. I also tried the beef hot pot, and it was packed with flavor and very satisfying. Clean space and fast, friendly service make it even better.“

“I loved the atmosphere as soon as I entered LePho. It smelled fantastic and they were playing a playlist of songs by Cigarettes After Sex ?, my fave. The employees were very friendly and the rib eye pho I ordered was so delicious. Though it seemed rather expensive for a bowl of pho, the beef is grass fed and the broth flavor stood out compared to other pho restaurants. I will also point out that it seemed a bit greasier than it needed to be, but other than those two things, I really enjoyed my lunch there today! ?❤️“

“Tay Binh has quickly become my favorite Vietnamese food spot! Their grilled meats are absolutely delicious, bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. But the real star of the show is their crispy roasted pork—it’s hands down the best I’ve ever had. The skin is perfectly crisp, and the meat is tender and juicy. If you’re looking for authentic and mouth-watering Vietnamese cuisine, Tay Binh is the place to go!“

“Went down there from Sacramento visiting relatives. Google search and found this restaurant near the hotel I'm staying. I was very pleased with their services. Pho was amazingly delicious. The beef was tender and delicious highly recommend“

“Saw this place on TikTok and had it saved for when I visit OC (im from SD). So when my friends and I went to Disneyland it was the perfect opportunity to try this place the day after! The food was incredible, everything we ordered was so flavorful and the perfect portion size. My boyfriend and I ordered the shaken beef noodles and the banh mi chao. My friends also ordered the banh mi chao and the banh mi bo kho (not pictured). Definitely cant find vietnamese food this good in San Diego! We also ordered a side of pho broth and that was amazing as well. Service was also great, our waitress was a really nice vietnamese auntie who took amazing care of us. 10/10 restaurant in all aspects and we will definitely be coming back here!! Highly recommend!“

“Wow, the taste was amazing - both the pho and the cucumber lemonade. The pho was richly and deeply flavored and was satisfying while still being bright and fresh feeling. The service was very prompt, friendly and helpful - the server understood my not liking overly sweet drinks and recommended the cucumber lemonade as refreshing while still having sweetness. It was, indeed, refreshing and sweet - perfectly balanced flavors. The server also wisely suggested we package the noodles and broth of our leftovers seperately. I almost never eat out, but I would if I lived near Soup Shop.“

“Taste good and portion large“

“Bánh mì chảo và bò lúc lắc với garlic noodle rất ngon, giá vừa phải 👍🏻“

“Friendly service. We arrived shortly before closing so many options were sold out. We tried the vegetarian eggrolls and the chicken eggrolls and both were delicious. They came out hot and perfectly crispy. The sweet chili sauce is also tasty and a perfect addition. You order in the back of the building and there is only one table for outdoor seating so plan to get your food to go. Wonderful little spot for a quick, hot and satisfying bite.“

“This is the second time we're here at Loi's Kitchen. I love their food. I didn't leave a review last time because we were busy. We ordered Cantho style fermented fish vermicelli, House special noodle and Chicken wings. They all are delicious ?. On top of that, their customer service is wonderful. They are very attentive. I will definitely come back. You should give it a try. I barely leave a review but I have to this time. Amazing place!“

“A certified Diamond Bar classic. Everything is solid here, from the pho, to the rice plates and appetizers. The pricing is reasonable (expect to spend in the low 10's per person) and portions are good sized. They have two TV's in the case you wanted to catch a basketball game or football game as you eat. Would recommend if you're in the area, but would not be a place you drive out for.“

“My family and I come with my friend and his family to Brodard Chateau for outdoor dining in May 2024. Foods are real Asian foods and tastes. Lovely foods, tastes and services.“

“Very enjoyable Pho restaurant. I got their House Combo and thoroughly enjoyed it. Wasn’t the most flavorful broth I’ve had, but it genuinely hit the spot. Reasonably priced, large portions, and free noodle refills. Easily two meals which makes it very cost effective.“

“First time trying this place. Pork chop, fried chicken and egg roll were good and not unusual. The egg was different and very good. The bitter melon soup was really different, but I like bitter melon. Now, unless you know what bitter melon tastes like, I wouldn't recommend it for you.“

“This place seriously delivered. We ordered the shrimp pho, beef vermicelli, a shrimp and veggie dish with rice, taro milk tea with jelly, fried egg rolls, and shrimp spring rolls. Everything was fantastic. The shrimp spring rolls were a bit on the smaller side, but still super fresh and tasty.

Customer service was warm and welcoming, and I really appreciated that they had gluten-free soy sauce for us gluten-free baddies 🙌

The space itself is tight. Tables are small and close together, but it added a kind of street-side charm. Felt like I got a mini taste of what dining in Vietnam might be like. Cozy, vibrant, and all about the food.

The only thing I didn’t love was the bathroom situation since you have to walk around the back to get to it. The location is also right next to a laundromat, so it’s not the most glamorous setting. But honestly, once the food hit the table, I didn’t care.

Would absolutely go back.“

“Been bringing my family for 8 years hear they never fail , it’s always clean delicious , spring rolls are super fresh , Thai tea is the best they are not stingy with their food all my love it from the smallest to the oldest ! Highly recommend this place“

“Since I returned from a trip to central Vietnam 4 years ago I’ve been chasing down a bowl of authentic cao lau. Living in San Francisco and Portland I can hardly get my hands on cao lau, so little Saigon has been a destination for me. This was my first and only required stop when I finally visited the area and it did not disappoint! The Cao Lao noodles were perfectly square and chewy, the broth herby and flavorful. The pea greens were also delicious. The lovely man who works and runs this with his wife was so friendly. I’ll be back!“

“Very good. Highly recommended“

“New owner for about 1 year made major improvements for food and services in this small place with about 12 tables. It's nice, clean, bright, pleasant, smelling neutral.

We got in about noon a Sunday. Most tables were already taken. Half hour later about 10 people were waiting outside for seats. So they did something right and the place is popular.

We ordered a Bun Bo Hue Special with extra rare beef $14.95 and a Banh Canh Tom Cua central taste, $14.95, 2 hot teas $1 each.

BBH's broth is a rich, tasty bone stock, nice, clear with the tastiness of fermented shrimp paste without the odor, not too sugar sweet and not overspiced. There was barely a hint of lemon grass. a tub of satay is at the table to customize spiciness to taste. So far this is the most balanced and best BBH's broth I found in So Cal and No Cal.

There was generous meats, extra rare beef, shank, a few small bites of tendon, 2 cubes of blood curl, a large slice of pork butt, a chunk of pork ball and a chunk of short rib. No pork trotter was served, which is my preference. The meats were cooked to my preferred chewiness. I would skip the rare beef and short rib in next orders. I finished the soup and wish the bowl was bigger.

This is by far the closest to the best home-made BBH I had in central Vietnam. In comparison, for the same price, Ngu Binh serves a larger bowl by about 50% with more protein and tastier broth, but the broth is greasy and way over spiced.

Banh Canh Tom Cua has clear crab broth, fresh and tasty but a little too sweet for my taste.

The wait staff is courteous and efficient. They gave us a small cup of soy bean dessert, tasted good.

I wish the owner would add an option for a supersized bowl 50% larger. This place would be my second choice for BBH after Ngu Binh.“

“I just tried this place for the first time and I'm glad I did and I'll definitely be going back. The food is fantastic, nice atmosphere, and extremely friendly staff. If you're looking for Vietnamese food this is the place to go. The prices are good also.

Kid-friendliness: The staff is very friendly, a nice clean restaurant.“

“Bueno“

“Food is delicious! Will come again“

“The noodle soup dish at the Chinese restaurant is truly delicious! The cleanliness of the restaurant along with the delicious taste of the food must have brought a wonderful culinary experience. The rich dipping sauce combined with fragrant fried garlic adds to the appeal of the noodle dish. Hope you will have more opportunities to enjoy this dish at the restaurant. Bon Appétit!“

“We had a lovely lunch today and the food is delicious!! The owner is delightful and funny!! We had some madeleines and they were so yummy!! Thank you for a great experience!!“

“This is my third time visit them and they always welcome me with the biggest smile and soft voices. The food tasted absolutely delicious with a big portion and packed in good quality Togo container. The ambiance is very clean, each table was set up far away so it looks so comfortable. The price is very reasonable too. I love when they refill my free drink without me asking for it.“

“Đậm đà miền trung. Quá ngon“

“Considering how hard it was to find this place, I gave it a mere 4/5. Other than that my meal was terrific! The C3 Glazed Chicken, rice, and house salad hit the spot (maybe a few more pieces of lettuce and veggies in salad portion).

Had to try the Vietnamese Iced coffee which was definitely worth it. Priced fairly decent for the quality and quantity of the dish.

Pro tip; train staff to learn English. it’ll help boost customer satisfaction“

“Great portions, great price. Their pho is like medicine for me. The meat is always perfectly cooked, the broth is thick and flavorful, the bon mi is amazing, and their Thai tea is made from scratch.
At this point, these people are family, no reason to go anywhere else.“

“The beef soup is delicious 😋“

“This is the OG spot where the Vietnamese get their nuoc mia.

I come here every time I'm in OC.
I usually get the penny wort sugarcane (nuoc mia rau ma).
Bf orders the kumquat which is very flavorful.

Great price too! Their small sizes are $4-5.

Don't bother with cococane. This is where the locals go for their sugarcane.“

“It’s really good and the rolls are my favorites“

“Delicious food, generous portions, great service. 5 stars.“

“Ngon 🤩 Khỏi cần phải về VN ăn uống làm gì 🤔 Cứ sang đây Đến loay hoay đây ăn là chuẩn 😎 K sợ ôm bụng chạy 😅“

“Yummy duck and chicken meal! We got the duck with glass noodle, chicken with porridge, grilled crispy rice with chicken salad. Each dish comes with salad and flavorful!

Good portion too, our favorite is the duck with glass noodle, the duck is very soft and meaty. Soup base has a clear taste.“

“Great food, good service, friendly staff.“
