Don’t go there unless you’re one of their own. The owner from Stockton, CA seems like a cool guy—I’ve been there several times. But twice now, the waitress acted like I didn’t even exist, even though I was clearly standing at the front door looking right at her.
Tonight was the final straw. I had family visiting from Seattle—10 of them—and we had planned to meet there. It would’ve been a fun night with great food.
But they just lost a big opportunity and a group of loyal customers. I’ll never go back. This place used to be my go-to hangout spot, but not anymore

5 stars! For quality of food. Every dish we had tasted delicious. Brought us back to OC places, and better than some of the central Viet dishes in SoCal. From the house made sauce fried chicken wings (kids enjoyed), to the ca canh chua, mango salad was refreshingly good, and the morning glory was very nice. Didn't try the pho, but kids and bro enjoyed. Bro said the banh xeo was a little hard. It just took a REALLY long time for them to prepare the food--one cook that day maybe? But food was very high quality. Friendly service. Can get a little loud inside, looks like it hosts big groups and events, they was a karaoke group in the back.

We went at night, close to closing time. The staff was very friendly, and we even got to karaoke with some of the other customers. Everyone was treated really well—it was a great experience.

Kinda hidden on the side toward the back. Small place with karaoke stage. Loved the traditional decoration. The food was great. Customer service was great. The gentleman who serves us, not sure if he's the owner, but he was very friendly. If I come back to this town. I would come back.

Love, love this place! I frequent this restaurant about 3-4 times a week. They just started offering Viet hot food Togo (which is so convenient if I’m craving comfort food and don’t feel like cooking &/or feel like eating out, I can choose my food options and bring home).. on top of reg dine in menu and I’ve also ordered yummy party trays. Always satisfied here. Delicious food, great service and comfortable atmosphere!

Vietnamese food has made a significant mark in the culinary landscape of the United States, offering a delightful blend of fresh ingredients, vibrant flavors, and unique textures. Lau Oc Viet restaurants in the U.S. pride themselves on using authentic ingredients, creating a truly immersive dining experience. Overall, the accessibility and variety of Vietnamese food in the U.S. make it a must-try for anyone looking to explore new culinary horizons. Very good . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Worst service received from a restaurant this year. Everyone waiting for their order and the employees are just standing around. Not sure if there’s only one person in the kitchen. Safe to say, it’s going to be the last time we come here.
