The meat selection here is great whether you want to grill or have hot pot or even Shabu their selection is very fair and so are their pricing.

I was greeted the moment I walked in and was left to browse at my own pace until I requested help. The cashier was extremely friendly :)

Own by the local Vietnamese Family, it sells some of the best marbled meat at a reasonable price. This butcher meat store has ribeye that is sliced thinly enough for pho at an affordable price as well as various other meats in the refrigerator such as brisket, seasoned marinated short ribs (galbi), probably venison and goat meat if you ask. Each meat has a great amount of intramuscular fats that melts in your mouth as you eat pho or even Shabu. I would buy 2 pounds of this every time, enough for a family of 4 or 5. I can see behind the counter that the butchers are busy slicing the meat away daily. If they don't have it in the fridge, they will slice it for you as you order. You can tell this place is honest and quality by the amount of yelp stars it has! That's very rare.

Personable people (family owned for sure), affordable prices, GREAT quality food, clean and full of history. I've even heard from other people who grew up in the area all the way at my work in LA county who rave about that store. My folks may have moved to another state and my father in law is no longer with us, but I for one will keep getting my best meats at this butcher's shop!

Customer Service was excellent! I'd prob called them a few times, just to make sure and they were really nice about it. Really helpful in person as well. We also ate at the restaurant once and the food was good too, their food presentation was nicely plated, and they give out complimentary ice tea. The only thing was that they forgot our free 2 bean drinks, for each package, which I forgot about. But they were nice enough to give a call to apologize. I highly recommend and will continue to use them again in the future!

I ordered "Bánh Hỏi Bò Lá Lốt" (woven rice vermicelli with beef rolled in betel leaf) but they gave me "Bánh Hỏi Heo Quay" (woven rice vermicelli with bbq pork)! I was so annoyed. I called and told them (nicely) that they messed up. Luckily the guy who answered the phone was nice and said he would make it right. I had to come back to pick it up and return the wrong one. This was just time-consuming as I was already on a time crunch. This makes it THREE times that they got my orders wrong - one time on DoorDash, one time for pick up, and today was also pick up. I don't know why it's so hard for them to get the orders right. And after all that, I learned the hard way that the food was just not good. The Bò Lá Lốt (Beef Rolled in Betel Leaf) was the worst I've ever had. The betel leaves did not taste like what they're supposed to taste like. And the beef was more like...hardened paste. It was dry, tough to bite into, and just altogether... bleh!

A open like space on the right, small table with dividers in the back and on the left there is a hall lined with private little booth rooms.

We also had the scallops which are served I cooked in the shell in a butter sauce and thin vermicelli, delicious!! The ramen was fine but that's not what you come here for. Service was great!

Out of all the dishes we ordered, my favorite was the Cucumber Noodle. It was pretty interesting and had a unique flavor. The service was friendly, but unfortunately, it wasn't very attentive. The restaurant wasn't particularly busy when we visited, yet the service was still fairly slow. I've been to quite a few restaurants similar to this, so I have to say this place wasn't quite what I expected. That's just my personal opinion, though. If you haven't tried this restaurant before, maybe give it a try and see what you think for yourself!

Kind of reminded me of Baekjeong. Got the combo A that came with either a choice of pork belly or pork collar + beef brisket + choice of stew + cheese. Opted for the pork belly and soybean paste stew with seafood. I usually don't like pork belly, but the pork belly here was exceptional. The fat and juiciness was not like any other kbbq spot where you get tired of eating the meat. It was a plus that they had instructions of how to pair the meat with salt, cheese, or their other sides that they provided. The salt really enhanced the pork belly flavor and the cheese paired perfectly with the meat too. The soybean paste stew didn't really have much seafood in it that I noticed. Overall, plenty of seating and great customer service. I also like the set up of their grills here. Would definitely come back when in the area!

Ordered Combo C- with pork & Kim chee stew as our stew choice. Banchan of: Kimchee (very good, not too spicey, garlicky full of umami), bread & butter type pickle slices, cabbage & red pickled beet combo, mustard green(?), and pickled white radish/daikon. Interesting unexpected banchan. Staff sets up and cooks/cuts the meat for you. Much like Mo Rak Do up the street does. Combo C has a variety of pork pieces. Excited to try pork jowl for the first time. Ample portions. All fresh with the added bonus of aging sticker info for the pork belly. All the meats were VERY good. The belly had a nice distribution of fat to meat ratio. The jowl had high fat content with a slightly firmer bite to it. Great choice. We selected the pork & kimchee stew. Also very good. A side thinly sliced green onion salad also served. The dipping ingredients: course sea salt, wasabi, sweetened shoyu with garlic/green onion bits, & a samjang mixture. All very tasty. Course salt is a nice upgrade. Beautifully presented. Plenty of staff to attend to your table. Menu also has add'l meats to add for a larger group (table of 6 to our right). Honestly I was glad it was my female cousin & I. Too much competition to grab our meat portions if the 2 piglets had to share. A definite return in the near future. Yes, these aren't all you can eat prices. Because it's above AYCE quality meats. This place is a winner all around for service, food quality, adequate venting, parking isn't bad (strip mall). One thing noticed. I never did get my one bowl of rice. Gotta have meat & rice right? Well...miss piggy didn't miss it.

The open at 9 a.m. so, you know they are cooking everything VERY early in the morning. FRESH DAILY. My favorite here is the 2-3 item combo meals. With my favorite item being the Turnip Cake with Egg. They also have various vegetables, green beans, Chinese broccoli, Bok Choi, etc. on a daily basis but rotate the type of greens, depending on the day. The 2 item combo "means" you get to choose TWO MEAT varieties. The combo includes white or fried rice or noodles and a scoop of one of the green vegetables. THE PORTION SIZES are substantial and you can walk out with a 2 item combo for $12 and a 3 item for only $1 more, $13. They have additional DELICIOUS "side" dishes which I'm not exactly how you can incorporate them into your combo meals, but you definitely can order them separate. Today, I got half and half Turnip cake and Chow Fun, asked for green beans and Crispy Pork Belly and he just charged me accordingly, $16.... which is two meals for me. They also have Chinese style sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf which is bigger than your average... for only $6. Delicious. There is one male employee who speaks near-perfect English, but most do not, so just point to what you'd like. Be adventurous! I don't think you'll be disappointed with anything here. Everything is seasoned well and always very tasty. Where can you get (more than one meal) for $12? ...other places would EASILY charge you $20 for this. ************* CASH ONLY **************

Restaurant is clean and spacious with plenty of tables - even tabletop seating if you want to eat solo. Soy Sauce Raw Marinated Crab (5/5) ($89 for two crabs) - Hands down the best tasting soy sauce raw marinated crabs in Orange County (and maybe even in Los Angeles)! They use fresh female Korean caught crabs which makes all the difference. The meat is tender, sweet, filled with roe, and not at all fishy! They marinate the crabs in a delicious soy sauce that has the perfect balance of saltiness and sweetness. Squeeze the crab meat out on hot rice, seaweed, and sesame oil for a delicious bite. Love how the sauce wasn't overly salty or filled with msg like other places, so you can pour the sauce over your rice to your heart's content. The dish comes with a spicy jalapeno and boiled egg. Beef Rib Soup (4/5): ($20 for lunch, $25 for dinner) - Fall off the bone tender beef rib! The soup comes piping hot and has such a depth of flavor from the beef bone and red dates. Dish comes with glass noodles and shredded egg. Very comforting and goes well when taking a break from eating the raw crabs. The banchan are abundant, tasty, and fresh! You can tell they made them with love & care. They're not overly seasoned and really complimented our meal. Service was friendly and attentive. The ladies are so sweet and even gave us warm barley tea to try. Much appreciated in this cold weather! I'd definitely come back to try their other dishes, especially the steamers.

The order process was pretty simple -- I responded to their Instagram story and they reached out with follow-up questions, menu options, and pickup details. The pickup was from a home residence in the city of Garden Grove (off of Brookhurst Street and Hazard Avenue), nearby Pho 79 if you're familiar with the area. The exact address is provided with your order! The owner, Aamir, was very friendly and professional when I picked up my food and the burgers were packaged very neatly in separate boxes. I ordered two smash burgers that included three patties each, which cost $15 per burger. They included caramelized onions and jalapenos, which were a delightful surprise. The patties were a little salty, but upon reading the other reviews, I see that the owner pre-marinates the patty meat. The prices were also steep for just the burger, and I thought my order would come with fries on the side, but that doesn't take away from the quality of the food. All in all, I would return for future orders and would love to see them open a brick-and-mortar restaurant someday, ideally in Garden Grove still. 10/10 rating and five stars all around for a seamless ordering experience, delicious food, and timeless customer service.

The owner is super responsive, and you can tell he wants to provide the best service possible. During this special pop-up event, they were serving two's a tango that features their warm brioche bun along with two halal patties smashed with cheese and carmelized onions on top. The burger itself was massive, with one being more than enough to feed a hungry person. After talking to the owner, he mentioned he pre-marinates his meat, so that could be the reason why the taste was a little salty for us. The sauce is awesome and complimentary, so when ordering, if you don't plan on eating the burger right away, to prevent sogginess, ask for extra on the side. I know some people prefer the meatiness, but I am a sauce type of girl. Overall, the flavors of the burger meshed well! Thank you for adding another place for halal goodness. I'm hoping you guys do well and keep quality up.
