The spring rolls are the best you will find anywhere. Believe me when I say I have looked... for years. This is a mom-and-pop outfit in a worn facility, often understaffed. But, the comfort food taste of fried spring rolls with a mound of cold lettuce, cilantro, fish sauce, and a little red pepper flakes...sublime.

For the amount we paid you would think they could update the place a bit. Place is outdated, spring rolls were good but over priced. Crab claws were suppose to be $16.95, spring rolls are suppose to be no more than $12.95, 2 small wonton soups should be no more than $5 even though the menu says $2.95. Please tell me how that all adds up to $81????? That’s insane. And when I asked for an itemized receipt she just smile at me and gave me a credit card receipt. Be very cautious when ordering. Make sure you ask what you are paying for and they don’t just smile at you. Ridiculous.

The food was good with a lot of portion. Price was reasonable as well and the old lady owner was really sweet and smiley. Will come back :)

We've been coming here for 20 years. Reliably delicious food. We always indulge in some spring roles to start (to be fair, other reviewers noted that the ends were hard, and two out the six were remarkably tougher than in past visits, and I would guess that that wouldn't translate well in a takeout situation). Spouse gets the seafood curry, always very tempting! kid gets the crab supreme, an expensive meal, but no imitation crab to be found in it. I always get the clay pot fish, a pan seared tilapia in a flavorful sauce. Two of three entrees are generous enough for leftovers. Sweet jasmine tea all around. Wait staff are typically men of few words, but fairly prompt and smiling. $85 for a hungry family of 3.
Parking: Parking in back, but the smell back there always makes me nauseous, so either in front or side street is where we park.

Not what the original used to be, but the spring rolls still ring the bell. The lunch specials are a great savings.

Best local spot. Glad we found it. Snow rolls are the best. Pho is great. Vietnamese beef is to die for.

WHAT HAPPENED ? ! ? ! I've been coming for my favorite Spring Rolls for years and this experience has changed my mind about ever going back. I paid $15 for a full order to take out. I ate them as soon as I got home without having to reheat them. The ends were so HARD and CHEWY. That same night, I took back the order and showed the elder Asian lady the bits I could not chew but she was unimpressed and didn't want to try to understand what I was saying (as we did not speak each other's language). I told the waiter that even the sauce tasted different and not in a good way. Neither of them seemed to believe me so I didn't even bother to tell them that the fortune cookie tasted OLD and STALE. Later that night, my stomach was really NAUSEOUS for about 2.5 hours. I went back 2 days later for the replacement and the elder lady was so RUDE to me. When she saw me and I said hello, she looked down to resume what she was working on. Then she walked to the kitchen without acknowledging that I was there. The cook came out and told me he makes the rolls himself and that I should not reheat them in a microwave (which I never have). They only gave me HALF AN ORDER!!! I guess they assumed, since I ate some, they would not replace those. I'm not going back unless they get new management.

This restaurant is a good mom and pop place with excellent food. The service can be a little slow, but it's still a good place to come when you want a quick bite to eat. I usually get the pad Thai. It comes with chicken and shrimp, which I love. My 2 favorite things in one plate. The portions are just the right size. The spring rolls are also delicious.
Parking: The parking lot is very small.

Old lady at register over charges you for medocre pan asian food...very dishonest....imagine what's takes place behind the kitchen!
Best spring rolls you will eat in your life and the jasmine tea is so good here I have been eating here all my life. And the fish sauce is also amazing here. Pour the fish sauce and everything you eat here and enjoy the best flavors of Vietnam ?? Right here in San Antonio TX.

This used to be my absolute favorite place to eat, definitely NOT anymore! We ordered dine-in and once ordered, delivered never saw waitstaff again. We ordered the spring rolls and they were hard as a rock, we're definitely NOT fresh and tasted of rancid oil. When we finally got someone to come to the table, they seemed confused that we were complaining of the hard spring rolls. After demonstrating just how hard they were, they took them back and brought harder ones! I'm so disappointed! I ONLY had good memories shared at this place, great meals with special people. Now, it's only the shell of a gone treasure. Would NOT recommend.

Exactly as I remember. The food here is beyond spectacular. It tastes so good and it brought back so many memories I just love it here. The crab claws are my favorite of all time.

The Vietnamese lady at Vietnamese restaurant overcharged us $40 more. I was calculating and it should be $85-$110 with taxes. She charged us $155 and I asked for itemized receipt and she said cash register doesn't print.

This place is a hidden gem. They’re known for there spring rolls wrapped in lettuce. Been coming here for over 14 years. Highly recommend.
