    Pork sausage, grilled beef, egg cake, white rice to go
    Cindy J.

    Love the food here. Their meals are flavorful and meat is juicy. Their egg cake is a decent size and not overly greasy. The texture is great and not rubbery either. Service here is quick and friendly and they have plenty of seating and parking. It can get a bit loud inside with larger crowds. I recommend the choose your meats entrees. I love the pork sausage, egg cake and grilled beef. Hubby also loves the shredded pork. They also offer buy 2 get 1 free meals and they have a great variety of meals to choose from. Restaurant is clean and can get pretty busy on the weekends. We will definitely be back again as it is one of our favorite places and since their other location closed down, this will be our new spot. They even had a gentleman playing a small keyboard and singing the day we went. They also offer orders to go.

    Bun thit nuong
    Dan P.

    Bun Thit Nuong - meat is on the sweeter side so I think the sauce isn't really necessary. I'm not a big fan of the pickled radish and daikon - it was just plain sweet instead of sweet/sour. Overall, it's ok but wouldn't recommend going here for this. Staff were friendly and food came out quick. Easy parking, shop located in plaza with lots of desert and other quick eats.

    Cơm Tấm Quê Hương is easily my favorite spot for cơm tấm. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly every time. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the service is fast and friendly. Everything hits the spot. Definitely the place I recommend to anyone for cơm tấm.

    Bun cha Hanoi
    Trina D.

    My husband and I were in the area. We were hungry. The place across the parking lot had closed so we wandered into Com Tam Que Huong. As with most Vietnamese places, the menu is long but the specialty of the house is in the name of the restaurant. However, I'm not the biggest fan of com tam so I ordered Bun cha Hanoi and my husband ordered Bun bo xao. My Bun cha came out in record time and I was very happy with it. My husband tried his food and said it was ok. The restaurant looked like it hadn't had a dusting in quite some time. I went to use the restroom and it was okay. I saw someone in the back rinsing dishes. But shortly afterwards, I went home and felt ill. I'm not 100% sure it was from dining here but that's the only thing I can think of to make my stomach turn. It might have been the fresh herbs but I didn't think I'd feel that way in a restaurant in SoCal. TLDR; Food was okay, but I felt sick after an hour.

    The menu is very big with alot of different combinations . The restaurant is clean, The broken rice is kind of special, smell so good, enough moisture and dry enough as Com Tam should be , pork grilled is well marinated , You can choose choices of chicken, pork, or beef comes with soup and fish sauce. Reasonable price for the portion.

    Receipt

    Beware on price when you paid ..making sure you ask for receipt and compare it with the price they have listed on the menu. I was there and they over charged me when I asked, they said the price on menu was old and have not fix yet..then the owner took menu away and had an attitude toward me..this is second time they over charged me. On top of that I paid them cash and I don't know if they report tax on cash flows with IRS but on my receipt tax was included in it.

    Com tam thịt nuong

    Pathetic portion! I wanted just com tam thit nuong for my son. I didn't want the bi or cha. At least compensate! Never ever again! I'll stick to Com Tam Xi Gon. That's what I get for being too lazy to drive to Xi Gon. I thought since I am already in that plaza, let's give this place a chance. Utterly disappointing!

    Com Tam Thit Nuong
    Nick P.

    Love the com tam from here. We've been getting our combos from here regularly. Their grilled pork always has the perfect charring and the flavor is on point. I love the crispy pork fat bits thay come with the meat. The fried egg adds extra creaminess to the meal and their nuoc mam is superb. A single order is enough to make 2 meals for me, which is solid. Definitely a hidden gem.

    I recently tried Cơm Tấm Quê Hương after hearing a recommendation about their thịt nướng, and unfortunately, I left pretty disappointed. I ordered the bún thịt nướng, and right from the start, the presentation felt off. The grilled pork (thịt nướng) wasn't what I expected at all. Instead of the usual strips of pinkish, red meat, it was served in small, yellowish chunks that were soft in texture. Every bite felt like I was eating bits of fried fat, kind of like what you'd find on bánh bèo at other places--just not the satisfying grilled meat I was hoping for. The biggest issue for me was the nước mắm (fish sauce). It was bland and lacked the rich, sweet, savory flavor that usually complements a good bún thịt nướng. It felt watered down and didn't bring the balance that I love in Vietnamese dishes. The pickled carrots and daikon didn't help much either--they lacked the tangy punch I expect and seemed pretty bland overall. Unfortunately, the whole dish felt off. Some of the meat chunks were hard and chewy, while others were just soft, making for a weird inconsistency in texture. It's a shame because I love a well-balanced bún thịt nướng where the flavors and textures complement each other, but here, it felt like something was missing, especially in the nước mắm department. On a positive note, the customer service was great. The staff were friendly and attentive, which I appreciated. However, when the food doesn't deliver, it's hard to overlook. I really wanted to like this place because I had heard good things, but I don't think I'll be coming back--at least not for the bún thịt nướng. If they improve their fish sauce and work on the consistency of the meat, I could see this place having potential. But for now, I can't recommend it for this dish. If you love Vietnamese food, nước mắm is a must, and unfortunately, that's where this place falls short.

    24. BBQ Pork Skewer
    Thien-Kim B.

    Food cooled off really quick, perhaps it was warmed up in the microwave rather than off the stove. Maybe because we had a similar bbq pork for lunch, this just seemed really bland in comparison. Honestly it's just a normal com tam restaurant but it wasn't satisfying and I was kind of disappointed we drove over an hour for it.

    Having been to most Com Tam restaurants in OC, I can say that Que Huong is decent at best! I ordered the Com Tam with Suong Nuong with Tau Hu Ky, the portions were smaller than most restaurants I've been to, however it was filling nonetheless. Service was sub-par, however that's to be expected. AMEX is also not accepted here.

    We wanted Pho 79 , but the line was long. We tried for Pho Holics, the line was again, long! We drove around the block and found this place. NO WAIT ! We got a table and had hot egg rolls and good rice , bbq and fried egg over rice !

    Long time customer here!…read more They have a brand new dish: Bún Chả Cá Thì Là. The fish and the fish cakes are super tasty, and the amount of thì là (dill) they use makes it the perfect combo.

Also, I'm so hyped that the Cháo Sườn Quẩy is FINALLY back on the menu! It came out piping hot and is just as comforting as I remember.

Food Bánh Mì Pate Que (2) - $5.99 Served as two pieces, this Hải Phòng-style bánh mì came with pate, shredded pork, and a house chili sauce.

Bánh Ướt Đặc Biệt - $14.50 Steamed rice sheets topped with pork patties, fried tofu, and fresh vegetables, served with a house fish sauce. The sauce leaned light and slightly sweet, which may appeal to some but felt a bit mild overall. Bún Chả Hà Nội - $16.50 Rice vermicelli served with grilled pork, pork patties, fresh herbs, and house fish sauce. Similar to the other dish, the sauce was on the lighter side in terms of flavor. The protein portions also felt a bit small for the price. Service My party and I were greeted and seated promptly upon our arrival. A server brought menus and returned shortly after to take our order. However, they did not check-in throughout the dining experience. We arrived about 30 minutes before closing and the food came out quickly. Payment is processed at the register near the back by the kitchen. Ambiance The restaurant is dimly lit with plenty of seating for dine-in. Location It is located in a strip plaza with a shared parking alongside other businesses.

I joined the Mama Hieus App which makes ordering ahead easier for pickup. I really like the app bc its simple to plan your dinner ahead. You can pick the day and time you want to pick-up. If I could make one request, is if you can give customers (me) the option to pay like extra $1-$2 for their orders to be ONLY FLAT WINGS on small orders. The chicken is so well crispy and coated and the non flat wings are too meaty but then carry less of your delicious seasoning in my opinion. Does that request exist? I guess I should ask this with your staff in person if I can get a special request to get all flat wings only. Overall, still love your wings and travel once a week when I can from Irvine to get them to share with my Mom for our bonding time.

    Arguably one of the best pho places in my opinion. I think this place is older than I am, because…read moreI've been coming here since I was a baby! Over all those years, they have never disappointed me and continue to serve really good food. I usually get the beef brisket pho and it's really good. The noodles are just the right texture, the broth is clean and flavorful, and the meat tastes fresh and tender. Their dui bo is also very good, but usually runs out after 1:00 or 2:00 pm, since they only have a limited amount of this item every day. The meat is fall off the bone tender and has a more fatty flavor to it. It usually sits in some broth that absorbs that beefy and fatty flavor from the bone. A great addition to any bowl of pho. Alternatively, I sometimes also get the bun thit nuong and it's very good. The eggrolls it comes with is wrapped with rice paper, so when it's fried up, it has such a satisfying crunch and texture to it. The thit nuong is has a nice smokey, grilled flavor to it. The shrimps are okay as well. This is a very satisfying and filling dish, so if you're looking for a high volume dish, this may be the one to get. Expect long lines during peak hours. I can confirm though that the wait is worth it! Service is always very good. The ambiance on the inside is fine, very plain and unassuming in my opinion.

When I tell you this is the BEST broth I've ever had, it blew me away. I'm not one to usually order extra noodles but for this place I would order as many noodles until I ran out of broth, it is that good. Noodles were on the soggier side, I'm not picky about noodles but if you are then this is something to consider. Portions were huge for the price, very happy with that. CASH ONLY. I didn't see an ATM there but I'm sure they had one. Will always recommend and they have a new customer for whenever I'm in OC.
