    It's a small stall within a larger kitchen concept (lots of various restaurants) in Costa Mesa. Owners were very friendly and accommodating. We ordered 3 rolls but they ended up hooking us up with another one and all of their sauces so we can try it all out. The sauce was a bit bland for me-I like my sauces a bit bold in flavour. As for the rolls-they were fresh ingredients and nicely pack. I liked their beef the best. Also, they gave us a peach drink on the house, which reminded me of the one I usually get at Phuc Long tea house-it was refreshing on a hot day. Order at their kiosk directly located at their "kitchen" because you can earn a discount; if you order at the screen by the door when you enter, there's no option for discount.

    "Cuốn" in Vietnamese means "roll," often referring to fresh spring rolls. Cuốn is a Vietnamese restaurant located in Costa Mesa. They serve Vietnamese Fresh Rolls, noodles salads and coffee: These fresh Vietnamese spring rolls are make with shrimp, vegetables, herbs, and rice noodles wrapped in rice paper. They also come with tofu, chicken, beef, fish and shrimp. Vietnamese spring rolls are traditionally served with nước fish sauce, but they are also super flavorful with hoisin sauce. Currently they are running a promotion for 20 percent off on spring rolls and salad bowls on order over $10. ‼Use code: 20OFF. July Special: salted Vietnamese coffee $5.

    I visited Cuon on a Thursday early evening. Parking in the designated lot was very limited, so I opted for nearby street parking instead. It's one of the ghost kitchens, so there was a wide selection of different cuisines to choose from. There wasn't much seating inside--just two benches near the front. I ordered a chicken spring roll & a shrimp spring roll, while my friends grabbed food from some of the other restaurant options. I'd love to visit again to try more of the restaurants in the kitchen.

    This is located in a Costa Mesa shared kitchen complex. Ordering online for pick up is super easy. I ordered the fish salad bowl and a chicken plate for my husband. I really love that there are such healthy options at this Vietnamese spot. The fish was juicy and tender and paired well with the tangy fish sauce. We also ordered 4 spring rolls and they were SUPER HUGE and stuffed to the brim. My favorite was the beef spring rolls (the beef is marinated in yummy sweet/umami flavoring). They come with yummy peanut sauce.

    Wow! Who knew I'd be able to find authentic Vietnamese style fresh summer rolls, a popular Vietnamese appetizer featuring a filling of protein (like pork and shrimp), vegetables (such as lettuce, carrots, and bean sprouts), and rice vermicelli noodles, all wrapped neatly in a thin rice paper wrapper, in Costa Mesa of all places! The fresh version of the more familiar crunchy spring roll, or gỏi cuốn, which it is commonly called, is served cold and is a light appetizer before you enjoy your main entree. When I scanned my app for delivery options, this new eatery popped up on my radar. Located in the pick up and go Costa Mesa Kitchens building, this new addition was a pleasant surprise to all the other usual suspects in the dining plaza. When the order arrived, I was very pleased with the clean, neat and attractive packaging. Everything was very well organized, presented and the summer rolls were impressively huge! My mouth was watering just gazing down at them nestled In nicely in their cozy little boxes. I ordered beef shrimp and fish respectively. Omg they were all so good, I honestly recommend all of them! The fish was flaky and fresh, the beef was tender and flavorful and the shrimp was plump and juicy. The accompanying sauces were fantastic, as well! I recommend going with their recommended pairings as they paired beautifully with the rolls. I highly recommend them to anyone having a hankering for fresh, handheld rolls to enjoy in this hot summer heat. So satisfying and soooooo good! Happy Eats!

    3 piece spring rolls - 2 shrimp and 1 chicken. I got it with hoisin and their fish sauce. The chicken spring rolls has avocado in it. Very nice touch. The shrimp spring rolls are grilled it seems. Very good. I'm not a big fan of mayo but the guy recommended it with the chicken spring rolls. I thought the fish sauce with the chili that's included tasted better in my opinion with the chicken. They also gave a side of pickled daikon & carrots. Pretty good size and filling. Very refreshing I would say. Service was self order but there was someone who was there to help me answer questions. It's one of those kitchens you go in and order to-go only, no dine-in available. But I will definitely come back! It was good!

    Was in the area and yelped a good spring roll place and boy did I hit the jackpot! This place, you can't even find it from the street. No signs! I was about to give up and found a very packed parking lot on the corner where it was supposed to be and I thought to myself, it's gotta be epic! There is a food kitchen with about 6 different kitchens, no place to sit down it's strictly take out with a specific takeout counter for all of them! It's all done cleverly with notifications via text. It's so genius. I parked and went in, they have kiosks. They helped me order, I got the pick 4 and ended up with tofu, shrimp, chicken and fish. I asked for a peanut sauce they made it special for me! All were fantastic made fresh, I love old school so loved the shrimp. There is avocado in the chicken roll as well as the fish, it's good for you, but am going to stick with shrimp! I absolutely love the food, the kitchen concept and can't wait to go back! I got a lemon iced tea (Arnold Palmer) so delicious very sweet! They even took the time to write me a note! Well done thanks guys!

    I didn't get a chance to take a photo of the rolls because they were gone within seconds! The rolls were soo good, fresh and packed with quality ingredients. I'm so happy they are so close to me! The coffee is sooo delicious it doesn't have any after taste like most Vietnamese coffees. I'll definitely be returning here!

    TLDR: Fresh, Flavorful, and Full of Love! I visited Cuon on their grand opening day. Located at Costa Mesa Kitchens, this spot specializes in Vietnamese spring rolls and salad bowls. I was craving for something light but satisfying and let me tell you, they've absolutely mastered the art of fresh, healthy food that doesn't sacrifice an ounce of flavor. The spring rolls are packed with crisp veggies, fragrant herbs, and perfectly seasoned proteins -- the Chickie Roll, and the Rolling with the Soy Roll (aka fluffy but fried-to-perfection tofu) are my go-to favorites! Each roll is made fresh to order, tightly wrapped, and served with a variety of sauces that explode your taste buds -- I swear I can have the Chili Tomato sauce as a drink for breakfast, lunch & dinner. Their salad bowls are equally incredible -- vibrant, crunchy, and drizzled with same incredible sauce. Everything tastes clean, nourishing, and honestly, kind of addictive in the best way. The staff is friendly and clearly take pride in what they do. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or picking up something post-workout, or ordering to-go to enjoy at your own leisure at home, this place hits the mark for healthy comfort Vietnamese food. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to eat well without compromising on taste!

    Box of 3 The Beef me up Bowl The Shrimpossible Bowl

    Best place to get your springroll fix for sure. Fish and beef are must try!!! Make sure to ask for sauce recommendation to pair with your rolls. Bowls are really good option too if you want something heavier. I tried the beef and the shrimp bowl. Both are satisfying and flavorful. If you can do "Nuoc Mam", it will elevate your taste bud. P/s: dont forget the peach iced tea to wash it down.

    This was a solid weeknight takeout spot in the Costa Mesa kitchens. The protein tasted good, the mint gave it a nice touch, and the noodles made it filling, and best of all, the kids were happy with it.

They even use alkaline water for their pho! Their chicken is sourced from a Japanese farm, and they don't cut the salads until you order, so everything tastes incredibly fresh. The fish sauce chicken wings are a must! The wings taste fresh, not frozen, and are packed with flavor. The shaken beef is super tender, the egg rolls are perfectly crispy, and the shrimp spring rolls with peanut sauce are fresh and delicious.

Beef broth was ok, portion size was relatively small when comparing to other pho places in the OC. If I'm not mistaken it was +$8 for double meat. The beef was really lean, tender and trimmed. The server made sure to point out that they don't use frozen meats and they utilize filtered water for the broth and cups of H20. The popcorn chicken was a bit of a disappointment. While the dipping sauce made up for it, the chicken by itself lacked seasoning imo. The server mentioned the dipping sauce was made in house as well. The hospitality/ customer service was exceptional. Greeted upon arrival and the server made sure to come back and check on me. She was extremely nice and attentive and I hate that I didnt ask for her name. To sum it all up, in my opinion the Pho was just like any other pho I've tried. The portion size made it a bit pricey but I would come back and visit again. They have alot of drink options too like wine, espresso, cocktails...I think I even seen a homemade ice cream sign. Lots of seating inside and an outside patio. They seem to take pride in preparing dishes from scratch and that doesn't go unnoticed. Nice establishment for the surrounding community to enjoy. Would you travel out of your way to try it, maybe not.

The beef pho came with rare beef, brisket, and cartilage. At 90% of pho restaurants, the meat is so chewy, and the cartilage is usually hard as a rock. You practically need to be a teenager or have Fred Flintstone teeth to chew through it! But here, the meat was surprisingly tender and enjoyable. The broth was delicious, although I thought it could use a little more fish sauce. The lemon pepper fried chicken wings were heavenly! They were crunchy, flavorful, and so good that I let my husband eat the whole thing--I only had one drumstick. I can't wait to come back and try the garlic wings. I haven't completely given up on the chicken pho yet. It's entirely possible that I went there after the gym and close to closing time, so maybe the broth had been watered down. The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated and had such a cheerful atmosphere. Service was good too. After today's experience, I'm definitely looking forward to going back. Highly recommended!
