2026 Update: My husband and I recently been coming back as the lack of Vietnamese food options in Milpitas has gone drastically downhill (what is going on? Is Milpitas blocking Vietnamese restaurants?) Anyways, we definitely saw improvements in the food. The meat in the com tam is no longer super sweet/tastes like cha siu. We have still yet to try the pho but we tried the hu tieu and vermicelli bowls and both were satisfying. Original Review - 3 stars I was so excited for a new com tam place to pop up in Milpitas as I was getting worried so many Vietnamese restaurants were closing in Milpitas. However, I was a bit disappointed at the end of the day. My bar is set high by com tam thien huong which is now gone. So I've been looking for replacements.. Location - rear back of oceans supermarket where it's kinda run down, but lot of space (not a lot of marked parking spots). A little sketchy but it's the vibes. Food - I liked how the menu had variety of dishes for both rice and pho. We order two variety specials read more

Solid and big portion sizes. Just stopped by last week and we ordered the big combo, even though they have a version with a little less variety on sale. Between 6 people, we ordered 3 rice plates and it was good enough to keep everyone satisfied. I probably could finish one on my own, but the plates are pretty big. The food was pretty good. Something felt slightly off about the egg cake that came with the rice plate, but I liked the beef, shredded pork, and fried shrimp cake! May have to join my rotation of viet food. I have been craaaaaaving broken rice plate but it's just gotten so expensive lately. Most places I feel like charge $25 for their big combo, so seeing $21 was delightful. read more

Food flavors are good as usual. Cashier is always multitasking and doing everything on her own. Nice older Vietnamese lady. I like her. Good service as needed. Accepts credit cards. This restaurant location used to be another restaurant that was also very good in this Ocean Supermarket plaza. It was around for years before Com Tam Long Xuyen restaurant took over. This place always have plenty of parking during weekday evenings because Ocean Supermarket is usually closed earlier than others. That leaves evenings with no problems for parking. Good casual spot. We dined in and chatted for hours inside. Comfortable space with lots of tables and chairs for larger parties too. Menu has good selections and of course it's on the pricier side, but foods are good. I had the roasted chicken rice plate and didn't know that I actually get two whole roasted mini chicken for this order. Too generous. Good value. I saved half the portions for next day roasted chicken salad at home. Best decision ever. Hu Tieu Nam Vang and Hu Tieu Hai San dry or fresh noodles with soup on side are always a good choice with enough flavors. Shredded pork skin rolls are delicious as always. Huge Vietnamese crepe too. Portions are just incredible large sizes here. You're getting good value for the price for sure. Not overcrowded and not too busy for weekday dinners. We chatted for hours and the lady was too kind to us. Friend wanted beer/they don't have beer here, so she recommended my friend go grab a beer from the liquor store onsite and bring it inside restaurant. She then gave him a cup and ice for his beer enjoyment. It was pretty good experience. Friend enjoyed the visit too. Very cool! read more

Very good authentic Vietnamese food and great prices. They are new so I suggest support local restaurants and try their food.

The ladies working here are so nice! They welcomed my party in and seated us right away. The door was propped open and caused this draft. They saw we were uncomfortable and switched our tables quickly. The restaurant looks like a typical Vietnamese restaurant with dark wooden tables and chairs, utensils and condiments at the table. I ordered the broken rice with grilled pork. The plate was huge, enough to feed 2 adults. The egg quiche was really good, and the shrimp in tofu skin was pretty good too. I also ordered the Banh khot which came 6 to an order. These were bigger than normal and they were super crispy on the bottom. I haven't had them with coconut cream before and it wasn't bad. I should come back here for mid week lunch some times. read more

IMHOJ When I last dined at this location, the restaurant was under a different owner and name. I loved the previous restaurant's Banh Xeo and that is the reason why we came here. The new restaurant has a new and understated look to it. I liked it. Our server was very friendly and the menu inviting. My husband chose the #13, Vietnamese Rice Noodle w/Grilled Pork & Egg Rolls, $17.99, and I had the Banh Xeo, crispy & savory Vietnamese Crepe w/bean sprouts, shrimp & pork, $16.99. Food portions were big and satisfying. We even brought home leftovers. I appreciated the dedicated table near the cashier that holds the take-home containers, napkins, etc. At casual restaurants, if I need an extra fork or napkin, or take-out containers, I generally have no qualms about getting them myself, when the wait staff is busy. Food was very good. We'll definitely be back! read more

Delicious and reliable com tam in the Milpitas area! They give large portions and taste consistent. It's a great alternative to thien huong.

TLDR: Tender rotisserie chicken It's quite a large place, but unfortunately, quite empty. I hope that changes, because this place is pretty good. I had the Roast Chicken with broken rice, which I'm always wary of, since often it's dry. But this one was not! Not quite to the level of juicy and moist, it was nevertheless tender. And the skin was very flavorful and crispy. I also love the generous portion of broken rice, which is my favorite type of rice. My beautiful wife ordered the Special Pho, which basically contains everything. All of the meats were good. Granted the broth is not as strong or umami as other places, but it's not bad. Finally we ordered a pork spring roll. It had a good proportion of pork and vegetables and I liked the mint. Made me feel like my teeth were getting cleaned while eating! Good place, come and be filled! read more

Their com tam portions are huge! Very solid spot for com tam and pho. I also loved their banh khot, and I assume the banh xeo would be great too. Very casual local Vietnamese spot. Lots of seating inside. Staff is friendly and lots of parking. read more

Service here was unfortunately very slow, though the restaurant itself seems to be family-owned and they recently changed ownership, so maybe they're still adjusting. There's plenty of seating inside, which is nice, especially during busier hours. I ordered the short rib rice plate with chả trứng (Vietnamese steamed egg meatloaf) and the grilled pork deluxe plate. One thing I noticed right away was that the fish sauce tasted much more "fishy" compared to other cơm tấm spots I'm used to. Not necessarily bad if you prefer a stronger fish sauce flavor, but definitely different. The chả trứng tasted homemade, with visible bits of carrot throughout, which was a nice touch. Flavor-wise, though, it was a little underseasoned for me. The grilled pork deluxe plate had a solid portion size, especially for the current promo they're running, about $14 rice plates Monday through Friday is a pretty good value. That said, the pork itself had a slight sourness that threw me off a bit. The short rib plate, unfortunately, was the most disappointing. It came with only about 4 pieces of short rib plus a fried egg for around $20, which felt overpriced for the portion. Overall, I really wanted to enjoy this place more because it's close and convenient, but there are other cơm tấm spots I personally prefer in terms of flavor and value. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come back. read more

1 STAR -- Extremely disappointing experience. The broken rice was honestly terrible. The meat was extremely dry, and the spoon and chopsticks were dirty. The food quality was nowhere near what I expected for the price. I ordered tàu hủ ky pork roll and Korean BBQ beef ribs, NOT the special combination. However, I was still charged the full price of the special dish. When I went back to ask about it, the cashier told me they had added extra meat instead. But NO ONE told me they were going to do that, asked for my permission, or explained that I would still be charged the special-dish price. That is not how you should treat customers. If I did not order the special dish, I should not be charged for the special dish without being informed beforehand. On top of that, the food was bad, the meat was dry, and the utensils were dirty. Paying this much for such poor food and service was extremely frustrating. Very disappointing. I will not come back and definitely do not recommend this place. read more

I had a chance to try their Pho. I ordered the Pho Dac Biet or House Special Noodle Soup (4/5). The broth was good, flavorful and came with steak, flank, beef meatballs and tendons. I ordered a Grilled BBQ Pork Chop (4/5) for takeout to bring to my mom, which she enjoyed. "Wow, this is good!" I knew she'd like it as I had it previously in my broken Rice dish the first visit. read more

My family dined in on a Saturday for lunch around 12:30pm. There was no wait. Food came out quickly. They are still running the promotion where if you buy 5 dishes, you get 1 dish free or for each dish you order, you get a free drink. We ordered: banh khot, banh xeo, some com tam dishes and a few bowls of pho. The banh khot was interesting. I've never had them like this. They were bigger and flatter and drizzled with a coconut sauce. A bit oily but crispy. Banh khot was also crispy. The com tam was really good. It's comparable to a popular com tam place in the SJ area. I would come back here just to have the com tam and avoid the wait at the more popular restaurant. However the tai and the nam in my pho was just terrible. Both meats were so chewy that I could not swallow them. The broth however was great. Perhaps it was an off day on their meats. I'll just stick with the com tam next time. Note: for some reason the credit card charge will show it is from, Dalat Restaurant. read more

Stopped by Com Tam Long Xuyen for some takeout. With this joint taking over a previous business I would frequent from time to time, I was especially curious with how it compares. The restaurant has a few patrons dining an upon arrival. I immediately make my way over to the register and let them know I was in need of take out. My attempt for some bun tom thit nuong was denied. Com Tam Long Xuyen doesn't offer grilled shrimp in its vermicelli bowls. The only alternative was to go with the bun thit nuong cha goi [vietnamese vermicelli bowl with grilled pork and fried egg roll]. Food: The nuoc mam was okay, not great. Granted, I am extremely spoiled and biased towards my MIL's version so nowhere really compares. The grilled pork was plentiful but the noodles were noticeably skimpy. To my surprise, the best part of this dish was the egg rolls. These were golden crispy, flavored well, and not overly oily. Staff were really friendly and eager to upsell the new Nam Vang noodles they had recently added to the menu. While I may not be interested in this particular dish, I wouldn't be against trying out a few other dishes. 3.5 stars. read more

My wife and I had great meals on a Sunday night. I don't understand how there can be so many negative reviews; either we caught the restaurant on a good night, or some of the other reviewers have different perspectives. I would definitely recommend Com Tam Long Xuyen for a casual Vietnamese meal. We tried a bowl of pho and a rice plate, and both were very good. We had a grilled BBQ pork chop broken rice dish, and everything was good - generous and tasty pork chops (see the photo), delicious broken rice, good portion of raw vegetables, a tasty bowl of broth, and to top it off, a free Thai tea. We also had the filet mignon, flank and tendon noodle soup. It was a huge bowl of noodles and meat. I really liked the filet mignon as it was marinated and cooked before it was added to the bowl (unlike the tasteless rare or raw steak in many pho bowls). The tendon was also tasty and generous, although some of the larger pieces could have been boiled longer. I wasn't a fan of the flank and will probably skip that next time. No sriracha or other dipping sauces needed! The pho also came with a free drink (and I chose hot greet tea). I can't speak to the food's authenticity, but I have had pho and rice plates at many Vietnamese restaurants, and the food we had was very good and generous. I will certainly be back if I'm in the area. read more

Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Casual Vietnamese restaurant. It seems like this place is known for their rice plates. Everyone was ordering them when we were there. It was not busy but service was a little slow. #7 BBQ Pork Plate: 4/5 BBQ Pork was a little more on the sweet side than sweet and savory. I felt like the sauce could have used a little bit more flavor. Egg cake though.... AMAZING. LOVED IT! #18 Filet Mignon and Tendon Pho: 4/5 Their pho are one size. Very big. The broth was on the sweater side but bowl was packed with ingredients. read more

TL;DR: com tam in Milpitas that is (in my opinion) just as good as what you can find in San Jose. They even offer banh xeo! It's tough getting to San Jose if you're not already there, and parking is always a pain. When the craving for Com Tam hit, I found this spot on Yelp and headed on over. There's a ton of parking in a pretty sad looking strip mall, it's right by Ocean supermarket and there are a bunch of other businesses. This location is pretty big, taking up two shop spaces and has a lot of seating. I've never seen it full but I have seen a number of people getting takeout. I usually get the grilled pork chop plate with everything else on it, like the meat loaf, pig skin and the fried shrimp cake. Well executed, very flavorful and juicy pork chop that goes deliciously with the rice on its own or with the nuoc cham. The other sides are all good too - fresh shrimp, good pig skin and nice juicy meat loaf. The pork chop and meat loaf even reheat well when you bring leftovers home. I branched out on my recent visit and got the banh xeo as well. It was pretty good! Stuffed with bean sprouts, pork slices and shrimp, it went well wrapped up in lettuce and dipped in nuoc Cham. It wasn't very crispy if that's what you're looking for, and I thought the pork was a little porky smelling but otherwise was decent. read more

Went with my parents. Currently this is the only Vietnamese (Broken) Rice Plate place in Milpitas. Pretty good, friendly folks who run the place, and not bad on the wallet. I'd give it a go. My tip is a lot of people don't realize but all the Vietnamese condiments/sauces on the side are there for you to customize your food - do you want it salier/more umai? There's fish sauce, there's xyz. read more

The first time we came here everything was great. We stopped in other day when they opened, sat down and proceeded to order as normal. Bun Xeo looked great but first bite was quickly met with hair. I don't normally post bad reviews but one thing I do not ignore is foreign items in my food. Especially hair. I also used the restroom on the way out and the toilet seat was swamped with urine. A closer scan showed urine all over the toilet, still dripping.. Being that they just opened means it was either an employee or someone there in the back because nobody else seemed to have walked towards the restroom. Was very promising but that's probably the push I needed not to come back and overlook certain things. Hair and staff cleanliness I do not over look in dining establishments. Use your best judgement. read more

Took my parents and sister to lunch here yesterday. My parents have been here and recommended this place. The parking isn't bad but just know that you have to battle parking w/ Omega (diner) and the supermarket so allow some time to park. The restaurant wasn't busy when we walked in. We were seated promptly and was asked what we'd like to drink. What was ordered: + #13 (my mom) + #14 (my dad and I was not able to get a picture) + #4 (Gavin) + #27 (my sister) + #22 (my order) I love broken rice plates, but I've been on a pho kick lately. I was pleasantly surprised by the prices since prices are now $17 and above. Pho is available in one size only and they do not skimp on anything. The broth was flavorful. I would definitely order pho from here again. My parents finished their plate. Gavin ate 2 servings of rice w/ his BBQ pork and shredded pork skin broken rice plate. The broth that came w/ each rice plate was delicious. I only had some because Gavin did not touch it. Service was excellent. I already cannot wait to return, maybe next week! They added new specials to their menu: banh xeo (crepe filled w/ pork and shrimp and served w/ fresh herbs and lettuce) and com tay cam (claypot rice). read more

The ladies who work here are super nice and friendly! We came in on a Saturday during lunch and they weren't too busy so we got seated right away. My friend introduced me to this place, and took me and another friend to try their broken rice. I ended up getting a pho because it's soup season and I've been wanting pho so I ended up not trying the broken rice dishes. Their specialty is their broken rice dishes, so my friends' dishes came out pretty quickly while I waited a while for my pho lol The portions for both the rice and pho dishes were large! We all ended up taking leftovers home and price is also not too bad. I will definitely be back to try their broken rice specialty! read more

I was surprise this place is open. This side of the plaza was completely shutdown. I thought it was going to be demolish... Gotta give it a try as I was very curious about this spot. Order the #7 togo. Porkchop with rice plate and shrimp bean curd and egg cake. Went in and the place is actually pretty clean with lots of tables and a couple of customers. Got my togo. Overall, it was a lot of food. 2 pieces of porkchop. The shrimp bean curd was not so good. If I was at home. I air fry it as the bean curd was chewy and not crispy the way I like it after it is air fry. So 1pt off for this. Everything else was on point. Total was $20. Might dine in for a pho...but i mostly do takeout in this mall... i think the food would be much better dine in. Was hard to use knife and fork on the porkchops...it was a case of too much food... and not enough room. . read more

Great new Vietnamese restaurant in Milpitas! While there are already a lot of great Vietnamese restaurants in Milpitas, some are hit-or-miss. To be honest, the only 2 places that we've continued to eat at are Pho Saigon and sometimes Pho Ha Noi. Other places aren't that great or the price isn't worth the quality/quantity. But the portions and pricing here are perfect! Getting here is a little tricky. The address directs you to someone's residence but it's actually in the same plaza as Pizza Hut. I was looking at the address on their building and it's correct, but just not sure how accurately it's addressed since the same address takes you to someone's house. When we got there, the place was literally empty which is weird since we came during dinner time. But as we kept eating, more people started coming in for dinner. Glad to see that the place was getting business! We ordered the Pork Chop and Fries Shrimp Cake w/ rice and we also ordered the Suon Bo Dai Han (BBQ Beef Rib w/ RIce). We tried not to expect too much since the place was new and someone in another review mentioned it was better than Thien Huong. Our food came out pretty quick and it looked really good! The marinade for the BBQ beef rib and pork chop was really good! I would say it's pretty similar to Pho Saigon or Thien Huong. We really enjoyed the food and even bought some to-go for the family. Hopefully, this place starts getting more business and excited to see them grow! read more

Absolutely love this place! The service was top tier. I only had take out but the workers here were still kind enough to give me tea while i was waiting and gave me great suggestions on what to order when I was on the fence on what to order. I got the number 8 which included bbq pork chop, which came in multiple pieces, usually places only give you one when it's a combo rice plate, shredded pork skin, egg cake, and fried shrimp cake. The pork chop was grilled to near perfection and everything from the shrimp cake to the egg cake was absolute heaven in my mouth. Packed with flavor and plentiful. The broken rice was solid as well. I need to come back next time to try the other items. This rice plate was delicious! read more

Hidden Gem in the Neighborhood! We're so lucky to have this casual Vietnamese spot right in our neighborhood.

They are open again! Seems like they raised the price by $4 and shrank the portions. The Korean rib combo is about $23 and you only get 3 pieces of rib meat. We also got the grilled pork which was a let down since there was no egg (not the egg cake) and the grilled pork looked & tasted like they skimped on quality. Even if it's not the best, I hope they stay open for a while. The staff are always accommodating + friendly. read more

One of the best Vietnamese meals I've had in a long time! The grilled pork chop was super flavorful and juicy, and the rice was cooked just right.
