Take this from a Vietnamese American girl who was born and raised in Orange County, California: the…read moreMeekong burger is FANTASTIC and AUTHENTIC. We stopped here for lunch, and I was a bit hesitant at first. We were seated and I was told they no longer serve their cocktails, which was disappointing. They still have beers, but that's about it. We started with ordering some appetizers: we ordered their pork bun baos and their pork spring rolls. Both were decent, but okay. It made me not have any expectations for what was about to come next. Their Meekong burger is a fusion burger, yet, it was completely authentic. Their meat patty has the texture and taste of nem nuong and they use the actual pickled vegetables from a banh mi sandwich. We have their pickled lettuce and daikon, amidst the banh mi mayonnaise sauce. It was absolutely a banh mi sandwich contained into a little American burger. Again, seldomly so I praise Vietnamese restaurants since I can get authentic food at my mom's house. Yet, this burger absolutely knocked my socks off. Delicious and amazing! A must try for visitors.

"Banh mi burger" grabbed me when I saw it advertised and . . . I'm glad I tried it out. It was pretty tasty: a sausage patty on a bun with all the banh mi fixin's on it. It . . . well, it was interesting and I'm glad I tried it for the experience. Probably don't ever need to do that again. The fries that came with the "burger" were great. The spring rolls that my wife got made her happy. It's a neat place - but maybe crank that vent fan above the fryer, eh?

We didn't want to have to drive and find a new spot so we found Vinason Pho which was within walking distance. I've tried Vinason at other locations in the past and have always had a pretty good experience. This location was MUCH smaller than I was expecting - there's only seating for maybe 8 people at best and there is no restroom. Definitely more of a grab and go type of spot, but we were committed and pho sounded delicious so we dined in. When we first got here we were the only ones, but it quickly picked up. They only had two people working so the wait was kind of extensive, but everything was served piping hot and fresh. We tried the Bia Rolls with chicken which I wasn't quite sure what to expect, and they were unlike any other appetizer I've had a pho spot before. Super good and one order was sufficient for the two of us. We both got the steak pho and all of the cuts of meat were tender and delicious. Their broth is a little on the sweet side which I normally don't prefer, but it's juuuust enough of a balance of sweet and savory where it still hit the spot. Not sure I would come back to this location given how small it is, but Vinason is always a great choice for pho in general.

That is an interesting story because, in my opinion , it is two businesses in one space. I was very…read moreconfused when I looked at the reviews. When I arrived, it seemed to make sense. My husband and I were staying in a hotel nearby, and it was convenient to walk to. I thought we might get turned away because it was 20-30 minutes before closing, and to our surprise, my husband and I were quickly seated. I wanted to try a Vietnamese plant based coffee drink, but the waiter explained that it was really strong, so I thought it best not to try caffeine late in the evening. I ordered from the vegan menu, and my husband ordered from the other menu. Vegan side has a separate menu and ordering area for to go orders, but when eating in, you have the option of both menus (restaurants). As a result of two restaurants in the same space, there's reviews for both places which makes it confusing. Service was good. Food came out fairly quickly. I had the tamarind vegan soup, and my husband had the non-vegan tamarind soup. The food was good. Are you confused yet? Keep along, :) it's a plant based restaurant and a non-plant based restaurant sharing the same space, but each has a different kitchen for preparation, ordering, and cooking. The plant based is mostly takeout as there's a takeout spot for that, but when dining in, you can order from either menu. This review covers both places.

I tried the Singapore noodles, while they were a bit bland on their own, the hot sauce they provided helped adjust the spice level, making it a decent dish overall. The only downside is the seating, regular dining tables have stools without back support, which can be uncomfortable. Interestingly, the bar seating is more comfortable, with chairs that have proper back support. Great service. Overall, a good neighbourhood spot worth checking out.

As soon as you walk in, the smell of lemongrass mix with a hint of fish sauce gets your taste buds salivating. For starters, we had the Bo la lot. A flank steak wrapped in Piper Lala leaves - skip it to expensive and tiny. The catfish clay pot is not an option - it's a must. It's the reason why they have five stars. I can tell you what they put in it but it's not gonna describe the taste. I could tell you it's very distinctive and it's heavy in the soy sauce, but I don't mean that in a bad way - it's amazing. The drunken chicken is their version of orange chicken, but better of course than your standard panda. I really like pickled veggies that come with the lunch meal. The offset allows you to have a fresh bite every time. Very Happy with this place.

But I'm starting to think that choices are the enemy of contentment these days. And those same choices led me to Vietlicious. Vietlicious made the conscious decision of using a portmanteau in their name to tell us that their food is both Vietnamese and delicious - I'll be the judge of that. Vietnamese? Sure, they got the classics. Bahn mi, vermicelli bowls, all of the goods that you would catch at a local Seattle Vietnamese spot. Delicious? I wouldn't go that far, but it was certainly solid. Vietsolid doesn't have the same ring to it, though. My chicken Vermicelli bowl had all of the elements to be a great lunch, it just needed a little more POP. Maybe something spicy and herbaceous to make it come to life. I put hot sauce and hoisin all over it, which made it serviceable, but it felt like it was missing something. I will say that the chicken in the bowl was cooked perfectly, but there wasn't a whole lot of chicken in general. The bowl was mostly noodles. I'd love to give Vietlicious another try for the Bahn Mi or fried rice. I'm glad that I gave it a shot; but it's probably not going to be in the regular lunch rotation.
