Brodard rolls have always been consistent but I feel like they have gotten smaller . Flavor is still good and sauce is always bomb. Decided to get the Bun Thit Nuong but the egg rolls were also thinner , you only get one cut in half and it was slightly burnt. The grilled pork was also bland and not seasoned well today . Just meh for me. Seafood clay plot was also pretty bland. Restaurant ambiance was nice , service was decent. I'd probably just go back to their fountain valley original location next time.
I accidentally made reservations to the wrong location but thought no biggie since it's the same same. Man, was I wrong. The prices seem a bit higher at this location and the food was definitely not as good. The famous nem rolls - seems smaller and way pricier. Catfish sizzling plate - awful and over fried. No flavor and the accompanying shrimp paste sauce was nasty. Ban xeo - not good, soggy and tasteless Ban Khot/moon cakes - this was good but we only got 7 pieces when most photos show 8 Shaken beef with garlic noodles - good but thought it was a touch on the salty side Seafood pot - not good. All the seafood was overcooked. The seafood comes on a bed of fried rice. Pork chop and fried shrimp cake broken rice - pretty good, the pork chops were a little tough though. Shrimp and crab glass noodles - by far my favorite of the night. Flavorful and perfect texture. Unfortunately this location does not compare to the original one in terms of quality and taste. So much room for improvement and I truly hope they get there!
Heard lots of good things about Broadard restaurants but never had the opportunity to try it till today. Was not disappointed! Think of this as a more fancy Vietnamese restaurant, definitely not your hole in the wall place. They even have a bar and service here is great!! Pork spring roll - this was recommended by the server as their specialty and it was good! Make sure you dip it in the sauce or the roll might be a little plain. Vietnamese crepe - excellent!! Great texture, super crispy, and goes well with the sauce as well. Shaken beef with garlic noodle - Excellent! Beef was tender, dish was very flavorful and has "wok hey" (smokiness from the wok). Garlic forward in the best way. Only qualm is that the price for this dish was on the high side ($30+ as there's a $6 charge for changing the rice to garlic noodle). Roast duck noodle - Noodle had the perfect springy bite, soup was savory and tasty. Vietnamese food is generally pretty hit or miss for me but this place is definitely a hit! Just be prepared to spend a little more as prices are not cheap, but the food quality definitely makes up for it!
We placed an order online and did pick up this time. We were only 15 mins away when we placed our order and by the time we reached, our order was ready. Easy check-in for the pickup. Grilled pork spring rolls is still solid. Perfect portion of grilled pork, crispy eggrolls wrapped bits, and fresh veggies. Each order comes with 4 rolls and a good size cup of their famous dipping sauce. Love eating these with fresh Thai chili peppers. Did notice that there is a customer only parking sign in the parking lot and a security person walking around the parking lot. This was new to us.
It was my first time visiting this place on a Friday night and the food was absolutely delicious! The only downside was the service was great but the kitchen was pretty slow. It took around ~30 mins for our mango sticky rice to come out near the end. The rolls are amazing and my favorite were the grilled pork rolls! We also got the shrimp and pork rolls and the sauce with those were delicious For entree we ordered the beef with garlic noodles and that was the BEST garlic noodles I've ever had. The sauce was so good and the beef was tender! I would come back just for this dish. For dessert we ordered mango sticky rice. Although this took a while to come out, it was still delicious. I personally prefer a thicker coconut sauce and this was more on the runny side. Overall good experience and I think we just happened to come when they are a bit short staffed. I would come back again!
This is one of my favorite places to eat in OC. I love their grilled pork spring rolls, they are so flavorful and I love the sauce it comes with. Their pork was also good, but I love the shrimp paste. the portion size is also good. This location is typically less crowded than the Fountain Valley location as well, so it was esy to walk in and get a table!
Locates in the same parking lot as In-N-Out. This is for Nem Nuong/ Pork Spring rolls! I cannot find another location that tastes better. I tried a few others but they just did not taste the same. Their dipping sauce - I cannot replicate! Dipping sauce enhances the spring rolls to another level. Everyone in my family love them. It was easy to order on the phone and pick up the next day. I didn't have to wait in line or wait for food to be prepared. Staff was cordial and explained details of order on the phone. I'd definitely order again. Parking is plenty in the front. Years ago, I couldn't hardly find parkings but when I arrived recently, there were plenty of parkings.
Once again- awesome customer service from Vi/Vy. She was busy helping multiple customers and still able to give me my to-go order when it was ready to go. Friendly exceptional service from her. Food was delicious as usual. The rolls and stir fry noodles - fresh and flavorful. Clean spacious restaurant with plenty of park that can fill up during peak hours.
When: - Thursday lunch What: - Grilled pork spring roll - Grilled beef and asparagus spring roll - Brodard vermicelli - Mango dessert Experience: - Food was ordered online and ready for pick up as stated - good service. - Spring rolls were amazing! The grilled pork spring rolls had the crispy pieces inside which raised the texture experience of spring rolls giving every bite a crunch. While the asparagus and beef spring roll had a different crunch from the asparagus. Definitely one of the best spring rolls I have had and will be back for these spring rolls! - Brodard vermicelli was delicious and had good variety of protein - shrimp, grilled chicken, grilled pork, and crispy egg rolls. - Picked up a mango dessert when picking up food and it was pricey (~$14) but it was amazing - layers of mango mousse with a layer of mango cubes.
I had a very nice experience here i totally recommend the spring rolls they will make you want to go back. The home made sauce for the egg rolls was also very tasty. I truly enjoyed it. Service was kind and fast. The pho was also very delicious the broth was amazing
Always a great experience at Brodard! We ordered the famous nem nuong rolls along with our favorite chao tom and ahi tuna rolls as appetizers. We also ordered a banh xeo to share and the cha ca thang long. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The rolls are delicious as always and come with a yummy sauce. The banh xeo was packed with toppings and the shrimp and meat were not dry or overcooked. The cha ca thang long was flavorful and juicy. The service is amazing here - they pack the leftovers for you as well which is great. Love this location since it is less busy than the other location.
Brodard Chateau is the more upscale fine dining version of Brodard in Fountain Valley. This restaurant offers a quieter and more relaxing dining environment. Service was quick and attentive. This is what we ordered: 1. Grilled pork spring rolls - delicious. Must order! 2. Shaken beef with garlic noodles - This is the best! Must order! 3. Udon with shrimp - Not flavorful. Pass. 4. Moon Cake (aka rice cakes with shrimp) - Nice presentation Portion sizes were somewhat smaller than those at Brodard. The beautiful presentation of each dish and impeccable service made up for the smaller portion sizes.
Brodard Chateau is one of my parents' favorite restaurants, and for good reason. The vibe is smart casual and the service is always very good. Staff is professional and friendly. Food here is consistently great here, too. They are known for their pork spring rolls (nem nuong), so that is a must order. We get them every visit! The summer spring rolls are great, as well. One of my favorite dishes here is the Brodard Chateau Vermicelli (bun dac biet) as the portion is great, and I love how there's all the meats on it. This place is a favorite for a reason!
Sometimes fusion restaurants are a mixed bag. Combining two cuisines, even if they are related like French and Vietnamese are, can be tricky because some dishes aren't accessible to modifications. I remember trying a place near Toby's university that tied Indian food to Chinese food. Some dishes succeeded and others I thought were a good experiment but didn't I've up to their promise. Brodard Chateau lives up to their promise as every dish I tried was just classic Vietnamese or put a good twist on a French dish by adding more Vietnamese elements to it. I loved my garlic noodles with the giant prawns. I loved the shaking beef. I loved the chateaubriand. The main dishes just had everything going for them. The service was great. Our server was on the ball, taking our order, as huge as it was, with aplomb and efficiency. He brought drinks, gave suggestions, and was just super professional. The ambiance gave off special occasion and/or upscale dining. I especially loved our upstairs table in the elevated dining room. It felt like a VIP area. The whole restaurant had a noticeable class to it that's hard to pin down to just a few elements. I just knew this food joint would be awesome to be a regular at. Overall, our dinner was good and made for a good night out. I hope I get a chance to come back soon and get another shot at this menu. read more
Must try: -garlic noodles -- 10/10 hands down our favorite. -spring and shrimp rolls -- very authentic. Servers were very nice but some of them didn't know the menu by heart and would give the wrong meat/steaks to family members. Still, it was a good dinner for the family. Will def be back for the garlic noodles alone. They are superb! read more

Brodard Chateau is a Vietnamese restaurant that combines high quality ingredients and presentation to traditional Vietnamese cuisine which results in a great experience. I recently dined in the Brodard Chateau's private dining room. This review focuses on this visit. My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Brodard Chateau has a private dining room that can seat about 20 people. The room is long and narrow, so there was a primary table set up in the middle (one long table) and additional booth seating as well. The black tables matched the well-appointed dark wooden walls too. The room had an upscale feel. 1 Star. Service - The staff was great. We had multiple servers take our drink and addition orders (e.g. dessert). The menu was set, but halfway through our meal they took away dirty plates and kept things well organized. Food kept coming out and we never felt like we waited between dishes. Great service! 1 Star. Food - Since this was a set menu, I'll list what made the biggest impression on me - the Grilled Pork Spring Rolls (nem nướng cuốn). The crispy egg roll wrapper tucked inside the roll gives it a memorable crunch, and the dipping sauce elevates it even further. I could have just eaten these roles for my dinner. But when I walked into Brodard Chateau, their desserts caught my attention. Behind the glass were some beautiful macaroons and cakes, but unfortunately, they were all a bit dry. But no big deal, I was there for the nem nướng cuốn. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Yes. While Brodard Chateau has a great private room for an intimate dinner, my next visit will be in the main dining room so I can try all the great dishes. But...I'll skip dessert. 1 Star. read more

Man, what happened, Brodard? I have been ordering your DELICIOUS Duck Salad for the last 15 years. I absolutely LOVE it!! One of my top 5 favorite salads. I'd always order it to go and it would come with about 2 cups of shredded cabbage and veg in a 9"x9" to go clamshell container. Imagine my surprise when I ordered the Duck Salad today and got this small to go container with about 1/2 cup of soggy lettuce and some wisps of shredded cabbage. And the salad was $20!!!! Wow! Talk about a downturn in quality and quantity! I hope you guys go back to how you used to serve the Duck Salad because if I get another Duck Salad like this, I don't think I'll be going back to Brodard anymore. read more

Came here on Sunday night for my dad's birthday. We were a party of 13 so our server was busy. He was very attentive and so was the girl who helped him. The food was great. I didn't capture a picture of everything we ordered but the scallops in black bean sauce were my favorite dish. The spring rolls were also a good pick. The moon cake was tasty and the garlic noodles were packed with flavor. The restaurant is pretty big and was very accommodating to our big party. It's a little on the pricey side but the food was worth it. read more
Came for dinner, first visit, as a group. Spacious place with room for banquet and ceremonies. Modern Vietnamese cuisine. The egg rolls were so crispy, luring you to eat one after another, remember to wait for it to cool down for I was inpatient and almost got burned, LOL! The spicy beef salad was delicious with fresh veggies and rightfully seasoned beef slices. The garlic noodles were with good flavor. I tried the steamed sea bass with rice, it was with the perfect sauce. Will return to try out other dishes. read more
Finally got to check this place out.. we all know that brodard is a staple stop in the OC.. know for their egg rolls. The best in town.. both the grilled pork and the grilled shrimp rolls are so delish.. we got to also try their tofu which was just perfectly battered. As far as entrees their shaken beef is also very well marinated and the shrimp noodles are so good, we ordered so many in the menu and all were just so yummy! Love this spot for casual and special occasions, also a plus that they have a full bar read more
very good customer service! i got a strawberry smoothie and it tasted weird so they swapped it for a mango smoothie, i felt so bad but they were really nice about it! we got the shaken beef noodles with subbing garlic noodles, so good and meat was soft but the garlic noodles was too oily. the ca kho was really good!! a little salty but still good. the nem nuong cuon sooo yummy, def should've gotten more! the cha gio as ok, kinda expensive for how small it is. overall nice and quick service! read more
I Phoned In An Order For A Pick-Up This AM. I Ordered One Order Of 4 Grilled Pork Spring Rolls (Nem Nướng Cuốn) & Grilled Pork Pattie/Sliced Pork Belly With Vermicelli Noodles (Bún Chả Hà Nội). I Usually Check & Look Through The Fresh Herbs & Lettuce That Come With Any Entree. I Found A Tiny Worm (No Image Available)!!!!!!!! read more

Such a must whenever I visit Orange County. I ordered the nem Nuong rolls (most famous), grilled shrimp rolls, & Goi Cuon (not your traditional has avocado). I was craving the most famous Nem Nuong rolls and it's hard to compare taste of both the roll and the famous sauce. A friend recommended the grilled shrimp roll and wow game changer and it's now on my list to order. For their version of goi Cuon I wouldn't order it again since I was rushing when I ordered and didn't see avocado in it... for me I like it traditional so just my preference. If you're visiting OC and want a light meal or snack definitely order the rolls :) read more
Everyone!!! This the must go to restaurant in OC. They provide all kinds of rolls and the summer spring rolls win my heart all the time It is so light and healthy and the taste is so refreshing and delicious, please order summer spring rolls ( vegetarian) I've been to this restaurant many many times. If I am ever down to OC, this is the spot! Service is so good and our server recommended "Fish and fish cake rice noodles soup" and which is delicious and delightful This is a great restaurant for a family gathering and even for a single person who can enjoy the meal The ambiance is definitely great I ran into the owner and she mentioned they are going to expand a new location in Long Beach ! I gotta say whoever lives around the area is very lucky I'm praying for the expansion to west Los Angeles I really love this restaurant !!! Ps: the shaken beef is yummy with the rice read more
Just as good as the regular Brodard, but smaller portions. Went for a weekday lunch - had the spring rolls, seafood noodles, and the shaken beef. Was all pretty good, but felt the portions were smaller than the regular Brodard at the same or higher price. Was a good time with good food, but will go to the regular one next time around! read more
One of two businesses I went to on a weekday in December, that had French sounding names, Brodard Chateau (meaning embroider and castle) is the elevated Vietnamese sister restaurant of the original (and still very popular) Brodard Restaurant in Fountain Blue. My wife, her mom, and I drove out to OC specifically to eat here for lunch, and tried to follow the advice of fellow Yelp reviewers and our waiter in ordering particular dishes. I found the food to be good, the service to be excellent, and the setting to be very comfortable. Definitely a good place to take a large party, especially if some folks in the party are a little nervous about what to order. We got there about 30 minutes after opening (open at 10:30), and the very large restaurant was already humming. After we got seated, Quy came over to offer recommendations. We got a pot of Jasmine hot tea ($7.95) which was just enough for the three of us, along with some ice water (they do specifically list still water on their menu for a price, so was glad that it didn't become a 'thing' when asking for tap water). Noticed that they had Saigon beer...never remember having it before, so asked for a bottle ($5.95). It was refreshing, definitely on the sweeter side, very noticeable when drinking it alone, but less so when having it with food. Always glad when dining with others to allow to try a variety of dishes, so got a few different things recommended. Chicken Lettuce Wraps ($16.95) - first time I've seen this at a Vietnamese place, and since it's a favorite of my wife's (at least the PF Chang version is), so got that. It came out first, and it was a large plate of diced chicken, water chestnuts in an almost curry type sauce. It came with a peanut sauce and a 1/3 head of iceberg lettuce. It was plenty of food, but they should follow the lead of what PF Chang does: Give plenty of lettuce, but separate it out into individual cups...only the first few leaves make a good 'cup'...the inner core absolutely does not...much better for something like a wedge salad. Plus the first few outer leaves were badly wilted, as old lettuce tends to do. Grilled Pork Egg Rolls ($6.50) - this is what made Brodard famous, putting a thick piece of deep fried won ton wrapper along with the noodles, herbs, and thick piece of pork. It was tasty, and different from any spring roll I had before. The peanut dipping sauce was pretty mild in flavor. Shaken Beef ($23.95) - this is presented as a plate, with a choice of carb (white rice or garlic noodles), and a small house salad, all on a plate. The chunks of quality beef is filet and served medium. Oyster sauce is the base for the marinade and our party enjoyed it. Ha Noi Noodles ($19.95) - I really enjoyed this dish, where chunks of flame grilled pork swimming in an oily broth. It is deconstructed, letting you eat it in a variety of ways. It came with a variety of very fresh herbs and lettuce, including Vietnamese Perilla leaves, a bit different than the Korean version I'm used to. The vermicelli noodles were the kind put into spring rolls, and was a good base for the meat. It wasn't as popular with my dining companions. It's its own individual building with a large private parking lot, but with its popularity, the lot got full (when we were leaving at 12:30). Even though our particular dining area was about half full, it was hard to have a conversation because of the noise level. It must be a din during dinner time when everything is cranking at full capacity. At the front is a bakery display with a variety of macaroons and some chiffon cake slices. Quy was a really good host, asking frequently how we were doing, and answering questions that we had. Leftovers are packed in the back and presented as a finished package. Payment was at the table and tax is 8.7% here. Everything about the service was top-notch. I've been to many Vietnamese restaurants, and this might have been the first time I didn't order some sort of noodle soup. Nobody seems to favor the pho here. Instead, sticking with dishes that a Chinese food loving person would like, would seem to be the right call. read more
I have eaten from here but never eaten actually here until tonight I used to have a coworker back in the past who would bring the spring rolls each time we did a potluck she got the pork spring rolls and omg are they addictive I went for an early dinner with some old friends so it wasn't busy but let me say when we left a few hours later it was popping Our server was friendly and helpful and guided us with decisions by being honest about certain foods He was right each time The place itself it's big with two floors of dining and it's all very clean and nice and themed The rolls oh man so good I had the classic pork but also duck and rib eye along with duck buns and chicken garlic noodles All so flavorful and with their own sauces (the rolls) and dessert was good too the sticky mango rice was good and sweet mango I can't wait to go back to try the other dishes again read more
I personally like the Chateau location better! I find the summer rolls here tastier, crispier, and just better. This location isn't as overwhelmingly popular as their Fountain Valley location, but quality is consistent and more importantly, their summer rolls are better here! :) Service is less stressful and more attentive, with a roomy restaurant and comfortable seating. Thanks!!! read more
Brodard Chateau is a Vietnamese restaurant in a not fancy area of Southern California and a not fancy part of town. But gosh darn it is delicious! My second generation friend and I went for lunch one day and she, as a world traveler, has declared it is the best Vietnamese in America. I recommend a reservation. The menu is in English and Vietnamese with good descriptions of the food. Prices are excellent as we fed four people on four dishes +2 drinks for around $120 pre-tax and tip. Inside is clean and pleasant, tables are very simple, straightforward wood with wooden chairs. They are more than capable of handling large parties. And you can order food to go. They are famous for pork spring rolls with these crispy bits inside them and they were delicious! I have recommended this to friends and family and look forward to eating here sometime in the future. read more
Friday at 1pm and it was quiet and got sat right as soon as we entered. Ample parking, clean establishment and ambiance is a sit down restaurant with classic jazz and pop playing in the background. We ordered: Fresh Passion Fruit Orange Juice: Drink is good and as real as it gets! Shrimp Cake: We wanted to try it but not as expected. Don't get me wrong as it was good but nothing to die for as I would not order it again. The veggies that came with it looked kind of fresh as the mint leaves were kind of wilting. Rib Eye Rolls: It was good but compared to the other Brodard, these were really skinny and small. Would not ordered this here as you would get more for your money at the other Brodard in Fountain Valley. Seafood Clay Pot: This is nothing special with the exception of the clay pot it was presented in. Tasted just like regular seafood fried rice. The pot was extremely hot and kept the food warm throughout. House Special Beef Noodle Soup: Ok but not worth the money. There was only one size for $18.95 and let me tell you the serving is not even a small at the Vietnamese restaurants in San Diego. Nothing special about this soup. Overall this place is ok but would highly recommend to go to the one in Fountain Valley instead. One positive outlook is there are other foods to try on their menu. Our server was polite and helpful but there are way better Vietnamese restaurants worth more than here. read more
We ordered the pork spring rolls, shrimp spring rolls, & crispy egg rolls... easily the highlight of the meal & the reason we came! The spring rolls have this crispy, crunchy filling inside that adds so much flavor & texture. Both pork & shrimp were great. The crispy egg rolls wrapped in lettuce with their fish sauce were so satisfying. For mains, we had the vermicelli with lemongrass beef & bánh canh. Vermicelli is always a safe choice & this one didn't disappoint! Flavorful, generous portion, & plenty of beef. We tried bánh canh after seeing it all over TikTok & it was worth it! The soup is thicker than pho with udon-style noodles & a seafood base with crab * plump shrimp. We finished with a Vietnamese-style halo-halo, which was a great way to end the meal. The ambience feels more upscale/fine-dining compared to their Fountain Valley location. Service was friendly & quick! Definitely a great spot for lunch or dinner! read more

Do you have gluten free options?
Do you have vegan option?
I believe they do, just not a lot. They have tofu in XO sauce, tofu salad, and 2 noodle dishes that have tofu
Is there still outdoor dining?
