    I love this spot! This spot showed up in my Yelp recommendation. So on the same day, I decided to pay a visit. The owner is so nice (assuming she's the owner) and she has this bad ass arm sleeve tattoos. Since they only have outdoor seating, they installed fans around (My dog has a great time). I ordered the coconut coffee and the fried egg bahn mi. The coffee is SO STRONG (as expected from Viet coffee) but SO GOOD. I would order again! I never had fried egg bahn mi before, and I liked it! The sauce is a great addition but the fried egg bahn mi is already very flavorful on its own. I sat and read my book for a little while enjoying my meal. It's quite a drive for me from Irving but it's totally worth it! :)

    Chimlanh is such a cute Vietnamese coffee spot. It's outdoor seating only and while the surrounding area looks a little sus, they've done a really nice job making the space feel cute and inviting. I've only been once so far but I'll definitely be back. The coffee wasgood and the owner/staff member who helped me was really sweet. I usually go for half sweet and when I asked if the drink she recommended might be too sweet for me, she told me their drinks are generally less sweet than other coffee shops and said I could try it as is and they'd fix it if needed. I thought that was great customer service. I got the iced Ube Sensai Vietnamese latte, it was delicious and so pretty with the three colors. I'd probably get it a little less sweet next time but I also usually drink my lattes plain,no sweetner, so keep that in mind. You order at the window and then hang out in the outdoor seating area. Also loved the "reserve the right" sign they had at the ordering window, made me smile, also, go them for putting that up! I've heard their sandwiches are really good too so I'll probably try that next time.

    42 dollars for 2 banh mi and a ca'phe. We're not in little SaIgon anymore service was friendly but price to quality ratio doesn't compute..

    $42 dollars for 2 banh mi and 1 ca'phe.. we're not in little Saigon anymore. Flavor was ok, but price to quality ratio doesn't compute.

    The service waa fast and they were very friendly ! The latte and refreshing drink were both delicious! My daughter got the tofu sandwich. I personaly don't like tofu because of the texture but this tofu was well seasoned and it didn't have taht rubbery texture. I would definitely order a tofu sandwich next time. I ordered a egg bagel which it was also delicious!

    The coffee is good but the shop could be in a better location... Unlike other places that has Vietnamese Coffee on the menu, I can actually taste the coffee at Chimlanh instead of just pure sugar. Definitely one of the better Vietnamese Coffee places in DFW. The shop is cozy with places for you to sit and enjoy your drinks. They also offer some food choices as well. The staff was very nice and gave us some complimentary donut holes. I just wish Chimlanh was in a better location. It's in this industrial block south of downtown where I don't think there's a lot of foot traffic and unless you're specifically looking for it, you won't know it's there. You also have to drive onto this gravel/dirt lot into the back of the building to enter the shop...

    Absolutely loved this place and the lady who took my order was extremely kind and personable. If I lived close by I would for sure be here weekly, but since I don't I will be visiting anytime I'm in the area.

    Cute little colorful spot in downtown! We ordered online to pick up and it was seamless. I had the Pandan latte which was a great combination between the Vietnamese coffee flavor and the Pandan. The Cedars Saigon drink is similar where it's Pandan, but it's a foam on top with coconut flavor as well so the drink looks more green. The barista was really nice and held out the ice for the drink so it wouldn't melt by the time we got there. There's board games and books as well and the place is surrounded by cool art. Highly recommend to go visit when you have the time!

    This café is amazing! We love the ambiance here, calling for you to take a moment and collect yourself... before indulging in coffees that really pack a punch! Cedars Saigon was so good that I'd have a hard time switching to another to try. We also got the weekend special of the Fried egg banh mi, which totally hit the spot for my craving as a pregnant woman trying to avoid deli meats. Thank you so much for holding this incredible space!!

    Have you ever gone somewhere and felt at home? I don't mean that the place smelled like your grandparents' house or that they made a dish that your parents made growing up; I mean a place where you are so warmly welcomed as if you live there, where you are so comfortable having conversation and relaxing, and where you want to come back again and again? THAT'S CHIMLANH! To preface, I had NEVER been to Chimlanh (or Sandwich Hag) prior to this experience, yet everyone was so friendly that I felt like a regular! I was given warm greetings, a menu overview, recommendations, and a full experience when they served my order. All of their drinks are crafted with intentionality and attention to detail that is unmatched! I would consider myself a local coffee connoisseur and can promise there is no coffee like this in the DFW. I ordered the Cedar Sáigón (December Special) & the Cà Phê Trứng. The Cedar Sáigón is a creamy and rich iced Cà Phê with a refreshing coconut & pandan cold foam while the Cedar Sáigón is a hot Cà Phê with and egg cream that gives the drink texture and carries the flavor notes well. In addition the the general dining experience, they also are a great community contributor. At the restaurant, they offer games and books with a focus on Asian authors (like I mentioned earlier, intentionality is so notable here which I love!). They also serve meals to the VA weekly so truly an involved establishment for the Dallas community! I will definitely need to come back to try some of their food offering and recommend this highly to anyone looking for a new go-to coffee spot! P.S. when you GPS there, the entrance is in the back of the parking lot. From the front, I thought I was in the wrong place or that it had closed; however, was glad to see I just had to drive in a little further!

    100 % recommend. It's a nice place to hang out on a sunny day with yummy eats and drinks!

    There's chicken curry in this bag!

    First of all, I'm irritated that I didn't know this place was right down the street from my house this whole time. Let's start there. Now for the review! I stumbled upon Chimlanh by doing a quick google search for coffee. I didn't want STARBUCKS. I wanted some local flavor. I was actually looking for another place I wanted to try that I couldn't remember the name for, but Google listed Chimlanh, with a picture of something curry related, and I really should have been pulled over by Dallas PD at this point, I broke my NECK to get there. The menu is short and sweet, which is my preference, because if you give me too many choices, I'll be there all day over analyzing. I was greeted by a cool chick with glasses, who asked me if I wanted suggestions, but I saw curry and knew that was it! I opted for the Da Lat Frappuccino and the Chicken curry soup, and it came with a loaf of French bread to dip in it (ugh, so cozy in this cold weather!). The service was pretty quick, I was only there shy of ten minutes, so while I waited I enjoyed the warmth of the patio and beautiful mural in the parking lot. I couldn't wait until I got home to crack this food open! The curry is viscous and creamy just like I love, not runny! The curry was full of flavor and rich. The Frappuccino is also very rich and a little thicker than your average frappe, and deep! It was so delicious, I cannot wait to try more of what they offer!

    Banh Mi Bagel
    Mark B.

    I adore places like this. Owned by Chef Reye Duong, who owned the best banh mi shop in Dallas. Sandwich Hag. She makes the most bold and unique coffee that transports you outside of the chaotic Dallas city vibe. The place as far as looks goes, shows out. The colors are pleasing and well kept. Beautiful homages to personal family and viet culture. Got the Ceder Saigon (pandan Viet coffee) so good. The sweet of the Pandan wasn't overbearing and very pleasant with the dark bold flavor of well roasted viet coffee. With that refreshing and awakening beverage, I enjoyed a banh mi bagel. The pickled radish and carrot with the honey ham and the flavors of an everything bagel were a party in my mouth. This bagel is the coolest and most unique combo of flavors. It's not dry. Not heavy, but refreshing and satisfying. The chef acknowledged me and made me feel so welcomed to the shop as well. Got the rainbow bagel that is so vibrant but also extremely flavorful. With the Honey Agave Schmear and the Almond Schmear. It's a 10/10 experience for a sweeter bagel lover. So pleased I finally made time to go to this shop and enjoy such a high quality breakfast. GO HERE! This is a MUST GO! Also love their Banh mi sandwich. My soul was revived when I got a bite. The perfect blend of homemade goodness. It's like being in a viet home. Being served so elegantly and with amazing flavors that are so unique and fulfilling and still light. If the bank account permitted, definitely a spot I'd spend all day and enjoy the quality food and beverage.

    This place is phenomenal. The iced Hà Noì Pandan and Iced Coco-Viet Mocha Egg Coffee were delicious. We weren't sure we found the right place until we pulled in and parked. Great, friendly service. This is a must try.

    This is a must-try in Dallas. Apparently, it's hard to get a reservation here and it is a small…read moreplace but definitely worth it. For the appetizer, we got the ravioli which wowed us from the start. Mint aftertaste, the ricotta balanced the onions on top. It is slippery so it's hard to eat with chopsticks, but they provide you silverware. We also ordered the stuffed leeks, which was on the salad side, which really surprised me. I was nervous ordering at first cause I expected it to be something cold for some reason. But the crab paired with the onion with the butter is just *chef's kiss*. Def get this, it is rich with flavor and unlike anything I've tasted before. Entree we shared the short rib. Keep in mind. The portion sizes are small so if you're hungry, you both would need to order your own entrée, but since we wanted to try a couple of different things, we did it family style, and the waiter will recommend that. He did sell us on the side of garlic noodles, which was a good call since that helped with the smaller portion sizes. For dessert, they had a basque cheesecake with peach jam on top and it was so creamy and paired well together. 10/10

    One of my new favorite restaurants in Dallas!…read more The dishes here have flavors that are beautifully crafted nods to Asian cuisine! They are so rich with delicious blends of sweet, savory, and sour. In addition, all of the meats/seafood were cooked to perfection to give you a wonderfully tender bite. The branzino was our favorite. It had a crisp exterior with soft, tender meat underneath. The flavor was also so stunning and the fish paired so well with the dirty rice. The foie gras dumplings are great umami flavor bombs. It's also coated a delicious pho sauce that gives you just the best parts of a hearty pho bowl. The atmosphere is elevated and romantic, perfect for a date night. We also loved our server who made our anniversary dinner so special! Would definitely love to come back and try their other dishes!

Definitely worth trying if you're a fan of Hue food or bánh ít ram! A bonus about this restaurant is that the service was really great and everyone was just so sweet.

The small dishes were especially fun to share, and the sugar cane juice was a refreshing addition to the meal. Overall, Goc Hue is a great spot if you enjoy Vietnamese food and want something beyond the usual pho or banh mi options. We would definitely come back to try more of the menu.

You can tell they brew it and it doesn't come from a syrup. When I sat down, I was instantly greeted, and there were like four different people serving my table, I think that they all work as a team to make sure everything is covered. The service was just amazing. Restaurant is beautiful, the booths were , small and intimate and you feeling that you in place with privacy and yet part of the group ....kind of interesting how they've done that. But the food! The food was outstanding, first they gave me a complementary appetizer of Jasmine sticky rice with this eggplant chutney, that was very tasty, a teeny bit spicy, but really good depth with flavor. Then my beef Samosas arrived. There were four, wrapped in like a triangle rapper, smaller than the Indian version of the same, and the flavor was very tasty, and corn and small chopped potatoes, yum! The two chutneys that came with it one was a cool cucumber, and the other was this sweet and spicy plum sauce. They made samosas!!! They could be soft and cool, or they could be delicious and spicy, depending on chutney you had them with and you had a third option.... There was a bed of pickled radish and carrot that really sit off the samosas as well and we're just delicious on their own. I devoured the entire thing. Then get the entrée. I had drunken noodles and I added the shredded pork... It was devastatingly tasty!!! the noodles were obviously done it a wok that's been seasoned to perfection. The wide noodles picked up all that deliciousness from the wok and then combined with the pork... heaven ! They had large pieces of bell pepper and tomatoes. very fresh onions... Just deliciousness. I was too full this time to get dessert, but I'm definitely coming back and I will definitely try it next time

    I really want to give the food a 5/5, but if I'm comparing it to a lot of the Thai places I've been…read moreto in Houston, I have to fairly rate them 4/5. There's just been truly so many outstanding experiences I've had in Houston. Regardless, the food was very good and it was authentic, we did get dishes similar to what we got at Street to Kitchen in Houston, which is the most authentic Thai we've had. Food: I forgot to take pictures of two other dishes we ordered, the Thai chicken, wings, and the drunken noodles. But let me start with the complementary sticky rice. I've actually never had a complementary "starter" at a Thai restaurant, so they stood out, and it was a good meal prepper. The dip is an eggplant type of dip so it's not peanut sauce based. It was really good. The best dish was the crab dip with the shrimp chips, the dip was curried and balanced well with the crab. The chicken wings weren't as crispy as we're used to, and there were more on the saucy side, but it was a solid 4/5 dish. The drunken noodles were good and I feel like they had a great mix of veggies, beef, and noodles in the dish, so it wasn't so carb heavy. But we've definitely had better flavor drunken noodles before. Lastly, the mango sticky rice presentation was unlike anything I've seen before, and I loved it. Do I prefer the traditional sliced mango over a bit of rice? Perhaps. But I did enjoy tasting the mango and the condensed milk and a sticky rice together inside the coconut for a change. Service: we went during dinnertime on a Saturday night, and I was so impressed with the level of service we had. Because don't get me wrong, they were busy, but the food came out so fast & we had multiple servers filling up our water and ensuring we're doing okay. We were literally out of there in about an hour, but it wasn't because they were pushing us out, it was truly because everything was so quick. And I loved that strategy they used where we didn't have just one server assigned to us, which is probably why they are thriving here in Dallas. Overall, if you're craving Thai, I would recommend coming here.
