“Don't let the name fool you, but this is a place you want to come to if you want good Viet-Asian comfort food; they take traditional Vietnamese favorites and put their own spin on things. We were fortunate to have the Chef walk by and glad we went with his recommendations.Their ultimate appetizer platter have something for everyone. With the traditional Vietnamese fried egg rolls, to their pork balls skewers poked in a cucumber and Asian style fried won ton pockets. To balance it out, there's vermicelli and other vegetables Another of our repeat favorite is their open flame cooked Quail with sweet onion garnish. Although it's to be have together the quail was tasty as is and didn't really need it. We also went with the Chef's recommendation of Eel, and this is one of the few places that cooks it just right (too long in the steamer and the meat is dry or too quick and the meat still sticks to the bone). Seasoning was done just right and added a savory taste that would've went well with some rice. For winter, we again went with the Chef's recommendation of pig stomach and chicken soup (Asian belief its good to drink this in the winter time to keep the body warm). Lot's of pig stomach and chicken (just needed a bowl of rice and this could've been a meal by itself) but the star was the soup, very hearty and tasty. The beef stew was on par, but their fried chicken and skin (with fish paste as the meat) was a masterful dish.Plenty of parking and although there's a parking lot in the back, it was easier to find street parking.“
“I'm sad that i only have one little picture, which doesn't even show everything we ordered. I ordered catering trays for my baby shower, and the food was all delicious. Also, i paid extra to have everything delivered, and the person that delivered was so nice and told me how to handle the food. We had: Pancit Miki Bihon Lumpia Shanghai Rice Lechon Kawali Bbq Chicken Bbq pork Bangus Sisig Fish Fillet Escabeche Chopsuey (seafood only) Everyone commented on how good the food was. Special shout out to: the pancit miki bihon, bangus sisis, bbq pork, but everything was really good. We had plenty of leftovers, and mostly everyone took something home for a second meal. Thank you, Tastebuds!“
“I was going to The Red Lobster and decided to check the Chinese Restaurant across the parking lot instead. I was greeted by the server, I was given a hot tea and the menu to start, I decided to go for a half Pecking Duck and an order of steamed rice. The Duck was cut up into several pieces along tiny guao bao (boiled water pancakes), thinly sliced scallions and a sweet hoisin sauce, the skin was crispy and you can taste the mild five spice, I don’t know why I ordered steamed rice; there was no need for it. The store has a side door that serves to go orders and stays busy all day. Great place if you are craving home made dumplings.Parking: Big area with free parking“
“By their own standards, this place is doing a good job. I found it a little overbearing, but I'll admit, part of what comforts me about Vietnamese restaurants is being left alone. I was not. I was even given instructions about how to order next time! One person working there seemed concerned I ate only half my bun bo hue, but I truly ate all I could and then some, it was just a lot for me. I think $20 is a lot for pho, but I was fine with that, as I was expecting it. I do wish the bun bo hue came with a pork hock, but the broth and the beef were so refined, that is not a complaint. More pork blood would be nice... but, I think they have perfected what it is that they do, which is all I ever want, personally.Would go back. They seem to foster loyalty; I can see why. They're very welcoming, and the food is comforting, as someone who grew up on SFV phoGot bun bo hue because it looked like everyone else did. Was happy with that choice. All the food looked pretty good.“
“Alright here me out, the food here is great. Super flavorful and it is worth it. However, shall we talk about the service? It was wrong in so many level it is almost a joke. However, as many people said, if you were treated poorly by the servers, you knew the food is legit. I would be back again for the food, and strictly for the food.“
“I would give this way more than 5 stars if I could! The wait is well worth it for their original dry fried wings. You can also ask for it to be spicier and they will definitely have a good kick to them. I've been multiple times and the wings never disappoint, and are my favorite wings in the city for sure. Not many vegetarian options, but I would definitely recommend the Vegetarian chow mein, it has good flavor and tons of veggies, and I always get it when I go. The green beans are a great starter as well, and vegetarian! They bring the food out fast after ordering too which is great. One of my favorite restaurants in the city!!“
“Went here when we were desperately craving ramen!! Cute spot. We loved the calamari, it was great. Was a bit difficult to get water and ramen was not amazing. Expected to be blown away for the price. Spent $80 (2 peopl) with no beverages besides water and one app.“
“The dumplings with beef, lamb, and fish inside are a tasty mix that you won't want to miss.Their special beef noodle soup is not only yummy but also comes with lots of beef in a big bowl. The broth is full of flavor, making it a great choice.Try the shredded pig ear in chili oil for an appetizer—it's delicious and has a tangy flavor that makes it unique.Lots of people like the cucumber salad here, whether they're eating in or taking it to go. I'll be sure to give it a try next time!“
“Must try!! I love this restaurant! Amazing food, lovely ambience, great service and staff :) every time I come here I always have a good time. Thank you to Sung and everyone at Kothai for a great birthday dinner!! Bonus - its right on the N haha ❤️Dietary restrictions: They offer vegan and vegetarian options“
“Came here on a week night and got the Pho Combo #1. The service was friendly and we didn't have to wait even though the place is on the smaller side. The soup was above average imo, satisfied the craving but isn't being added to my list all time favorite vietnamese restaurants. The place is very clean, staff were friendly, and prices seemed reasonable. I'd be interested in trying their banh mi's and rice plates next time!“
