Oh my gosh I am obsessed with this place and it really takes me back to my roots. They have a ton of Vietnamese noodle soups that I grew up loving, and all of it tastes super authentic. It's a pretty small restaurant but I'm always so shocked that it's almost always empty when I come here because everything is so good, from the food to the service and the vibes! I got their canh bún. It tasted exactly like a home cooked meal. I loved how flavorful the broth was, how fresh the veggies tasted, and how generous they were with the toppings. All the toppings were so good! The noodles were also soft and the dish was just so well put-together. If you are craving authentic Vietnamese soups, this is definitely the spot for you!! read more

Foods were tasty and delicious The portions were generous fitted the price The service was slow because only one girl in front but it's ok because the orders came out fast. The restaurant was small but clean and neat. We ordered Canh Bun Cua Dong and Bun Dau Mam Tom, the two special dish in Northern Vietnam Will be back to try some street foods read more

Bap Kitchen This is a small, clean spot that feels comfortable and not cramped. The food overall is good and enjoyable, though nothing really stood out as amazing. Flavors were solid and easy to eat, not too heavy. We ordered the Hai Phong crab noodle soup, steamed rice cakes, bánh mì with phá lấu, and grilled pig cheeks with chao . Everything tasted fine and met expectations, but some dishes felt a bit safe rather than memorable. Service was friendly and attentive, which I appreciated. Parking is also easy with a spacious lot, which is a nice bonus. Overall, a good place for a casual meal if you're in the area, but probably not a destination spot. Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 read more

This review is purely for the customer service. Never have I ever felt the need to leave a bad review, but this experience was honestly one of the worst. We came in around 7:15 PM and ordered spring rolls for to-go. After waiting about 15 mins, 3 other parties came in after us and ordered full meals. We completely understood and were honestly fine with them getting their food before us. But it got to the point where they were almost done eating and our spring rolls still hadn't even come out. By then it has been 30 mins of us standing there and staring at people eating while wondering what was going on with our simple order. What made the situation worse was the cashier's attitude. Instead of simply apologizing for the delay, she bluntly told me that spring rolls "always take longer" than dishes like Bun Dau, Bun Mam, or even hot pot which those 3 parties ordered. Because my spring rolls have to roll and others just have to cook and fry. So my rolling process is almost 1 hour process compare to frying. Please explain to me how spring rolls would take almost an hour compared to Bun Mam, Bun Dau, and hot pot orders that came after us. A simple apology and honest explanation would have completely resolved the issue. Mistakes and delays happen, but the way it was handled was disappointing and unnecessary. The attitude alone pushed this experience to a level that was really hard to overlook. read more

Today (05/09) around 7:30 PM, my friend and I went to Bap's Kitchen to try their spring rolls because my friend loves spring rolls and has tried them at multiple restaurants. We decided to try Bap's Kitchen spring rolls to end our fun hanging-out day, but it turned out to be really disappointing. Spring rolls are one of the easiest dishes to make, especially at a Vietnamese restaurant, yet we had to wait 30 minutes for an order that should honestly take maybe 5 minutes to prepare. Ridiculous! We waited patiently, but the most frustrating part was watching food come out for people who arrived after us. Like, what the hell? We were so frustrated. When we asked the cashier, she said our order took longer because they had to boil the meat and roll the spring rolls fresh. Honestly, that explanation made no sense. Instead of giving excuses, just admit the order got delayed or messed up and apologize. That's literally all we needed. What made it even worse was that someone ordered bún đậu mắm tôm after us and got their food first. Isn't the pork used in that dish basically the same boiled pork used in spring rolls? Spring rolls are literally just vegetables, boiled pork, and shrimp. It shouldn't take that long. Very disappointing experience. Never going back!! read more

It's been a while I didn't go to Garden Grove unless I needed something for the gardening. We like the nursery in GG. Today I planned to go there and I found this restaurant by accident. I guess it was former Chinese restaurant in the past. There were lots of customers around 12. I am used to eat Pho rice noodles, spring rolls once in a while. That was all I knew about the Vietnamese foods. When I went over the menu, it was tough to understand what ingredients were there in the soup or rice dishes. So hard....for me and my hubby. However, we chose Chinese fried rice w sausages, eggs and hot soup w crab meats, some noodles. Thank God!!! Right choices for the first time!!! The fried rice looked so flavorful w big shrimps. It was heavenly good. For the soup w crab meats, there were crab meat balls, tofu, tons of crab meats w something crispy and chewy veggies like water Cresson. I love love it!! The broth was so flavorful, made me warm, relaxed. I want to try it next time for sure. We had a great lunch time to discover the new ambiance and new cuisines. Pros Price, quality, service: fast service, affordable price, 4 stars Ambiance: casual Cons Menu: so tough to understand for non Vietnamese customers Sauces: unclear what is hot, medium hot, or mild chili sauces for the dipping the meat balls in the soup for me. Overall, we liked the foods. Definitely come soon to try other foods. read more

If you are looking for Vietnamese soup noodles that aren't the usual Pho or Bun Bo Hue or Vermicelli, this spot offers a large variety of Viet staples with interesting meat choices that aren't super mainstream. Probably the one dish I would recommend above others is the Bun Dau Mam Tom with a variety of fish cakes, tofu, pork, and fermented shrimp paste to dip them in. It is a rare item not served at many Viet locations in the US and if you like funky tastes, then this will be right up your alley. read more

I discovered this new Vietnamese restaurant in Korean mall. I know this place, it was Chinese restaurant for a while. The generation is getting younger, changing. The parents generation is retired, baby boomer. That is why the restaurant looks very fresh, young. They have rice, soup menus, including hot pot. My wife said, hard to understand the menu, more Vietnamese language not clear English descriptions on the menu. But we found Chinese fried rice w chewy sausages and crab soup w noodles. The service was so fast. Almost right away we got the fried rice and crab soup. Wow...looked amazing. The portion is big enough for 2 people, very tasty. For the fried rice, very crunchy, well balanced w sausages, big shrimps. My wife had crab soup, she loved it. Made warm, sweaty, just like the comfort soup in the winter. Overall, the service and price are very good. The portion is huge. The broth is rich, lots of green veggies, tons of crab meats. She said, I can't stop eating this soup. Sooooo good. We will definitely come again. Will try other Vietnamese cuisines beside fried rice. Hopefully they can upgrade the menu clearer in English descriptions w pictures. Just like us, we don't know about the Vietnamese foods well except Pho, spring rolls. read more

Got the Canh Bun (special crab noodle soup) and De Gia Cay (special goat soup). Canh Bun is so good! We loved the broth made with crab and pork, and the water spinach was so fresh. The crab meatballs were delicious. De Gia Cay was a to so equally delicious! The goat pieces were tender. The soup was amazing with the side of banh mi. It's our first time having this delicious. Definitely coming back! read more

Ordered Bun Mốc as bun Bo hue wasn't available. First time trying Bun Mốc in general, so I was prepared for pork paste balls. The broth is quite nice and packed with a lot proteins. You get mostly large 4 piece of pork paste balls (kind of Luke warm temp) 2 pieces of fried cha chien , and some spare riblets which were tender fall off the bone. You get some mini toppings as fried pork chicharones. The blanched noodles are quite inconsistent as I found some fragments to be under cooked. Overall- you get bang for your buck on getting the proteins in. Be advised if you're here for on a 30 minute lunch break you won't make it. Upon getting seated - You will endure at least 10 window of waiting to place an order. Recommend the Bun Rieu over Bun Mốc. read more

My dad's go to place for party food to-go- he especially loves the Lau de/goat stew and think it's the best in OC. As a sit in restaurant, it's a bit small but that only makes the food taste better. I got the bun bo hue and bun dau mam Tom to share and both were so so good. I love the extra spice on the side to add into my bun bo and the mam Tom sauce was extra fishy and so great to dip with the variety of cha. This is my new go to viet restaurant! read more

One of the best bún mắm in OC. It has all the good ingredients like squid, crispy pork, shrimp, grilled eggplants, peppers stuffed with pork, fish cakes. So yummy and the broth is delicious.

I ordered 2 pha lau banh mi. They gave me 2 old stale breads which were rebaked and too hard to cut/ chew. Then they explained it's new just because I left it too long. I didn't agree and after I complained, they took the old one and send me a new one but I'm wondering if people just keep silent then they will just send them their trash without apologies. I read other 1* comments and I saw they made the same mistakes: savng cost and served old food for customers. That's the Vietnamese way but you can just apply it at home but not for business. Be nice your customer and no more cheating! read more

Ordered another sticky rice dish here today. Basically the same one, xoi man, but without the Chinese sausage & pork roll, and substitute with chicken. They never skimp on the protein here, which is great. However, my only comment is, Bap Kitchen should put very little oil in the dish or on the side. It was too greasy at the bottom and the sticky rice is totally soaked and drowned in oil. :( read more

The bún mắm was just ok. The canh bún was a little plain and very little noodle with a lot of ong choy (rau muống) if you like the rau. Overall, it's a good place to eat. read more

There's so many restaurants in Bolsa area serving similar food, but rarely will be a restaurant that serves truly unique but delicious and authentic Vietnamese cuisine. I came here because someone told me about the lâu riêu. What's that you may ask? Well, I asked the same question. It doesn't sound that appetizing and certainly I have never heard of it. But wow, it was amazing! So different and yet so good. The broth was so rich. The different types of vegetables and seafood. It was so good! I definitely am going back and I'm going to bring my family. For Thinsulin fans, there's so many green light options. read more

The perfect meal place for a cold evening. They have the usual vietnamese food, with coffee and milk tea, and also beautiful noodle soups. I ordered Hai Phong style crab noodle soup (banh da cua Hai Phong, i think). But for me, i translated it as crab haven soul food. Well, not a haven for the crabs per se. The broth is packed with crab flavor. It's THE noodle soup for fishcake fans. There's so many elements in the noodle soup that you can have different bites in every scoop. And the water spinach really adds the fresh feel of the soup. The price is not cheap, but you'd definitely be fullfilled by the generous portion. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by how well the food was. The service was good and the variety was decent

It is a little kitchen located next to a hobby shop. I stopped by to try it out. They have both in and out door dining. The indoor only has about 3 to 4 tables and 3 outside. The menu offers some varieties of sandwiches, soup, and rice platters. I ordered a beef stew rice. It was served in a bowl of rice, some mint leaves, and a bowl of stew. The stew itself was good, the rice had a good texture too. Beef was a little bit on the dry side, and there wasn't enough stew for the entire bowl of rice. I was able to enjoy my meal overall. I would give it 3.4 out of 5. read more

After searching for a new restaurant for early dinner. My wife said this place has 4 stars, so we gave it a try. Upon entering, it looks small and old and need a updated. Service person is ok, not bad like some poeple reviews. Menu has a lot of items, so we pick dishes below: 1) Bắp xào - it's looks good, smells good, and inviting.The portion is large, fresh, and flavorful. It only cost $8 for this dish. Oh, don't forget to add pepper to it. We love it. 2) Bột chiên - it looks good and smells great. It's not a large portion, but enough for me. The fried eggs and rice flour are crunchy outside but soft enough inside. I ate at many other places, and it is normally hard outside and dry inside. I would eat again next time. 3) bún mắm- this is my wife favorite bowl. She likes it. Sorry, I can't comment about how its smell , lol. The soup is flavorful but a little too salty for her, so she added 2 slices of lemon, and it tastes great. All the meats, fish and egg plants are perfectly yummy. BTW, this bowl is so big, I have to help her eat some, but we still can't finish it. She voted that this soup is the best around The Little Saigon area. This now will be one of our favorite restaurants around here. read more

I didn't have high expectations for this place, but the bún mắm was surprisingly good and flavorful. The service was okay. We also had the papaya salad, and I'll say that Vietnamese papaya salad is very different from Thai. It's not fishy and smells more like Maggi. It was a bit hot inside, probably because there were a lot of people and not much ventilation. Overall, I would come back here. read more

Just ordered to-go. Ordered Chinese fried rice & lomo sal tado. This is what I got. Probably the worst customer service I've experienced around. The menu is completely changed, the person taking phone orders doesn't speak English so it's difficult to order. Definitely not recommended unless you can speak the language. Called to complain that I received the wrong order but they didn't say or do anything to fix the issue at hand. They need to hire someone who can either speak English or they need to update the menu to reflect the correct items available. read more
