Solid Vietnamese restaurant in seaside. The pork rice plate I got was a little too salty for my liking but the portions were good for the price and the egg rolls were pretty good However I wish the staff was more attentive, it took a little long for them to get our orders and the check even though it wasn't busy. The place is pretty big with many seatings so it's good to come with family or friends read more

We saw there was an event at the Korean restaurant nearby and came here on a whim. What a great deal! There is so much variety, the service was quick, the prices are very reasonable, and most importantly -each dish was delicious. We ordered the kids pho, broccoli and beef, pork spring roll, and dry noodle bowl - it was way better than some of the food we've had in SF! read more

Great customer service. The food it's really delicious, I usually order house fried rice, spring rolls and CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP. I've been a customer since they opened their first branch in Seaside. I've visited all four of their branches in the county. Their food is very tasty, so delicious. Love this restaurant. read more

It's been a while, so let me do an update. The place we were going to was on the busy side so we opted for the Chopstix. Seated and menus given, nice. Visually some good looking food and the flavors of my dry noodle bowl was good though I thought it would have been hotter due to the chili pepper picture next to it. Fresh spring rolls were average, the drag was the banh mi sandwich. It was a lemon grass chicken with no flavor and worst was that it was mushy (wet). The bottom of the bread was falling apart like it was setting for too long. Last words...maybe not. read more

Best pho around. The staff is also so friendly. I love the beef pho spicy. My daughter loved the veggie pho and veggie spring rolls. Can't wait to be a regular read more

We loved the soup on this chilly evening. The atmosphere is casual and quick. Tried the Pho - it was a very good portion size and two people could have had it. Glad we didn't get an appetizer. The servers are sweet and friendly. Came and asked how the food was and if we needed anything. I got a loooootttt of lemon and they provided no questions asked. Will try again if we come by. Must stop. read more

Chopstix - The name of the restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

We came here because the friend we ate with only eats Vietnamese food and is very frugal. Our server was friendly. Food was okay. I ordered the mango salad. It was good but was drenched in sauce and would have been so much better with less. My partner ordered the Bun Bo Hue. I liked the thick white noodles which had a nice bite to them. The chicken wings were okay but nothing special. Overall, an okay experience. I'd come back here for a cheaper meal but it wouldn't be my first choice. read more

Horrible tasting food. We have a Vietnamese restaurant here in Salinas that we always go to, but decided to try a new place. We ordered spring rolls which were extremely dry & felt old, lemon grass chicken which had no flavor, and a beef dish, (I can't remember the name), that was dripping in a flavorless sauce. The only thing we ate was the wonton soup & even that had no veggies, & a few strings of chicken & a few wontons. It wasn't too bad once we added hoisin sauce & sirracha sauce to it. This one is off our list. read more

Terrible customer service They take no accountability for their quality of food and lack professionalism when speaking to their customers. Also they provide the incorrect food items and lack urgency and care to make it right for the customer even if they have paid. read more

I'm only leaving a 3 start review, because for some reason all the reviews that have one star it says to go on the app to read the full review. i just want everyone to please check the food!!!! I went in to eat with my family. I Order 3 waters never got them, we asked for chili oil also never got it. I had to get up and ask for it again. Then while I was about to take sip of my boba drink I see this... a freakin roach on my drink!!! & all they offer was to take the drinks of my bill. I will be calling the health department for sure. I'm only leaving a 5 start review, because for some reason all the reviews that have one star it says to go on the app to read the full review. just want everyone to please check the food!! read more

The pho here is so good. I usually get the large bowl of pho with the beef balls. I sometimes get it with rare steak or flank too. The portions are generous and the broth is so flavorful and so good. I really like the banh mi sandwiches too because they're so delicious and such a great deal. I also really like the boba here. I usually get the classic milk tea with boba and I've tried the taro and almond flavors as well- they're all good. Rumor has it that the Carmel location of Chopstix is the best but I haven't tried it yet. I'll get around to that. I love the Seaside and Monterey locations. Excellent service, staff and food. read more

Good food. Good service. Ambience was casual. Wonton Soup: Delicious broth filled with fresh veggies, glass noodles, and a variety of meat. Pork Spring Rolls and Vegetarian Spring Rolls - freshly made so you can customize ingredients. The wrap was so fresh, the rolls were sticking to each other. We wanted no cilantro with the pork rolls, and no veggie ham in the vegetarian rolls. Only tofu. I also like that you can get a half order of spring rolls. BBQ Pork Bun - good and flavorful. They have a huge menu of vegetarian dishes. They also have a wide selection of boba drinks. read more

Calamari is my favorite to order here on chopstix, i order once a week. but now i ordered one and i'm very disappointed, they gave me a very little calamari and the taste is not similar at all and it's not chewable.

Its cute on the inside, everyone was nice and greeted me when I walked in, bathrooms were clean and the restaurant has mostly booth seating.. boba was delicious, the fries we're too plain I probably won't get those again.. I got popcorn chicken that came with sweet-and-sour sauce, the chicken was more soft than crunchy which was also just OK.. service was fast and prices weren't too bad read more

My wife and I went to chopstix and bought a matcha boba (extra sweet as requested) and a taro boba. The taro boba was delicious and so was the matcha boba. They are very generous with the boba pearls. Tool about 5 minutes. Atmosphere inside makes up for the ugly exterior. read more

Imperial rolls were tasty. Beef w/green onions had great flavor. Looking forward to trying some of the other dishes

Great delicious food with affordable non-SF Bay Area prices! Finish your meal with a wide assortment of slush/boba & tea drinks! Also offers cheaper cash payment instead of credit card payments. The place is very spacious with plenty of seating choices. Lots of booth options. read more

Chopstix - Choptix combo with fresh noodle. - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Came here for an early dinner. This place was okay. When i came here at 5:30 pm, the place was empty. People started coming in closer to 6 to dine in. But they do get more of pick up order than in. You ordered bun bo hue and spring roll. I enjoyed their spring roll with their peanut sauce. As for bun bo hue, it was alright. The broth itself doesn't taste like your typical bbh broth flavor. My parents also had pho. All the noodle soups, it has more meat than noodle so the ratios of noodle and meat wasn't balance. You get your own individual plates of vegetables if you get their noodle soup. read more

Chopstixs is a pretty good restaurant for pho, spring rolls and other Vietnamese favorites. This time, I ordered the Popcorn Chicken & Fried Chicken Wontons to satisfy a craving for something crunchy. Yum! These were so much fun to munch on! The Popcorn Chicken was light, crispy and tender, while the dumplings had the right amount and crunchy/chewy to them. Plus, eating with chopsticks right from the Chinese takeout box always makes it taste better! Lol read more

Very disappointed with our take out experience. We were assured all the sauces and condiments were included. We ordered pho, fried rolls, spring rolls, basil chicken, fish balls, dumplings for 7 people. No soy sauce, rooster sauce, hoisen sauce, nor fried rolls dipping sauce was included. Chop sticks and napkins were not included either. Only the rolls were decent. The pho broth was watery, didn't even taste like beef broth and the noodles were hard. Nevertheless we will be going elsewhere for our pho in the future. read more

Try something different here. I tried the mango salad. OMG. It's out of this world! It comes with shrimp although I didn't know and had ordered it with tofu the first time. It's really fantastic. The shrimp is soft. But it's green shredded mango. I forgot I was eating fruit because there are other ingredients and together it really pops. I'm going to try the other salads as well. If you like beef, they have a salad with that. I prefer vegetarian. read more

Ordered for pick up... a rare beef pho. I should've checked before I left because all I got was my broth. No noodles or garnishes with it. Not did they just forget my noodles they also got me the wrong pho. read more

This restaurant was marvelous! The pho was light and flavorful, perfect if you just want a light meal. The service was quick and speedy, almost as though they knew what I wanted before I ordered. It has a pretty fancy interior but casual so you don't need to dress up. This is a definite go-to if you are ever in Northern California. read more

One of my local go to's for take out love the barbecue chicken dish as well as the spring rolls and popcorn chicken

I'd like to start off by saying this noodle house in Salinas is phenomenal I was ranting and raving about about how absolutely delicious the wonton soup was to my coworker so we decided to head over for a lunch break. Because I know what to expect, I asked for less noodles, more vegetables, as did my coworker I'd like to start off by saying we seemed like we were absolutely bothering the young lady and young man that are working there for sure did not care one bit that we were there the service was extremely slow to take our order extremely slow to get our food and even slower to get a check a matter fact, I never got the check. I had to walk up to the front. and just asked to pay at that point we were running very late to get back to work- thank goodness we took separate cars. I sent my employee back to work as I did not want her to get in trouble for taking so long. Good thing she was with the boss lol. The fact that I can go to the one in Salinas walk in and place to go order And be back at home within 15 minutes but in this location taking over an hour to get some service was pretty ridiculous The actual soup was pretty good. However, they definitely did not honor our special request. Just a little disappointing because we work so close to here and being the rainy season coming up, it would be really nice to depend on this location to come through for some delicious soup. Sadly, I will not be back. Maybe it would be a better idea to drive across town to try the munras location or just stick with the trusty Salinas location . read more

Food is good service sucks had to wait 1 hour for a glass of water! Drinks come first than food. Nope not here!

A Vietnamese friend once told me that if I am going to order pho, and one of the ingredients is "rare steak" (should cooks in the heat of the broth), ALWAYS get it on the side. (Even if it means you will be adding to the broth yourself). He used to work at a Vietnamese restaurant for 5 years and told me that if you ask for the rare steak on the side, they have no choice but to give you the fresh and red steak, instead of the brown smelly steak. The rare steak that came out on the side looked like a pile of rotting proscuitto. It smelled bad, and the edges were crusting over (as if it has been left out all night). I am unsure why anyone (including the waitresses) would think it would be okay to bring this to someone's table. Moreso, the pho broth was nearly clear as water and had absolutely no flavor. The noodles were overcooked and soggy, the wrapper of the fresh spring roll was dry, the beer was barely cold, and the worst part was... the waitresses came up to us asking if everyone was okay... looked at the rare steak... and smiled.... We continued to say "we are fine," and tipped 20% with the intention of never returning. I think the bay area has spoiled us with Asian cuisine. Food 1 Aura 2 - Looked like an old chineses restaurant that was never remodeled Service 2 Price 3 - Very affordable for Asian food in Monterey, but not worth it for what it is. Averages to 2 stars read more

So I got the order through Uber eats. The ban mhi for the price and quality of the bread and veggies was very good and delicious. I would come back just for the sandwich. However the fresh vegetarian spring rolls was terrible I have not had a more dry, ill tasting tofu and very little lettuce. It was not appetizing at all. The potstickers was mediocre. read more

The food was just OK. However, the prices were pretty cheap compared to many Vietnamese restaurants these days. I will say, living in a community with many Vietnamese people, the food is significantly worse here. The flavors are quite bland. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue, and it had way too much chili oil (although it had no flavor); I kept choking. read more
