I drove by Bolsa and noticed this new shop, well at least new to me, and decided to give it a try. First impression is the place is very clean, with seating for about 30-40. The host/waiter was friendly and fast, although it was early in the day and there were only 4 other guests. Each table comes with the assortment of fish sauce, shrimp paste sauce, and chili oil for you to up the umami of your BBH. The BBH looked clean and the broth is clear. The accompanied veggie plate is fresh with shredded banana blossom and variety of mints and sprouts. So far, the presentation is nicely done and clean. Onto the food... well that is where I find it lacking in taste. There are hardly any robustness umami flavor of lemongrass and fish sauce. Even when I added the condiments, that still did not help. As for the brisket, it was on the chewier side than my liking. The pork hock has the right bite, but overall the meat is lacking in flavor. For the uninitated, perhaps this would be a good start, but being that this is in the center of Viet town, the bar is set pretty high... So this place, to me, at best is average. I like the cleanliness and friendly setting, but the food is lacking...

Egg Rolls

This is a small mom and pop restaurant. We came here on a Monday and it was slightly busy. One table with a lot guests and a few other tables taken. We sat down and in a few minutes the waiter came by and asked if we were ready to place an order. He was working the front end by himself at the register, taking orders, cleaning the tables, and serving. He did have someone cook though. The table had the fermented shrimp pasted which I loved! The egg rolls were crispy and for 5 egg rolls they gave you like two pieces of lettuce. The fish sauce for dipping was SPICY. The red chilis made it super spicy that I couldn't even eat it. The Bun Bo Hue was alright. It wasn't as amazing and great as other people said it. The soup didn't have much flavor so I added a lot of shrimp paste. It wasn't hot hot when it came out. Meaning like maybe a few minutes after the noodles came out it wasn't hot anymore. I wouldn't come back though.

Bun bo hue khong gio

+2 stars for clean and airy restaurant. Lunch time on a Saturday 12pm and the place was near empty. We sat down, menus brought out, they take our orders asap. All good. The bun bo hue was bland. Noodles were slightly on the mushy side. At least the veggies looked fresh. Overall, its the most mediocre bun bo hue Ive had this year in Bolsa area and Hue in Viet Nam. $36 for 2 bowls of this bun bo hue is down right criminal. Tried once but I dont think Ill come back. Hue Kitchen, Ngu Binh, or even Huong giang food to go would be better.

Bun Bo & Lychee Lemon
Scarlet C.

Living here in Westminster, it's surprisingly hard to find good bun bo hue. I've tried so many that are just watered down and lackluster. This was the first time I've had a good bowl of bun bo hue in the states. The picture I took was literally half-way through my meal because I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was. I knew I had to leave a review later. The broth is super flavorful and clean. They give ample amounts of noodle and meat with a good variety of different meats as well including pork knuckle, pig's blood, fish ball, and beef. I will say that it's not very spicy but they leave sate for you to add to your liking. The lychee lemon does taste a bit like canned lychee juice but regardless is quite good! I would just ask for less sugar. It's a family run business and everybody was very courteous and the restaurant is clean! Stop by if you have a chance. I know I'll be coming back.

Bun Bo, all meat.

The raising amount of MSG in the common BBH places made me try to find a new place. I happen to buy a ton of jerky from their jerky store. The BBH here is great. They give you a ton of meat. The portion is very filling. The broth is fine. I usually ask for clear broth (less oily and fatty) and order beef only (no blood, no cartilage.) People complaining about price but this is 24, everything is expensive. For what you get I think it is worth it.

Sizzling beef stew and eggs

My boyfriend ate breakfast here and was pleasantly surprised that their sizzling skillet items were a delight for breakfast items. The inside was clean with nice decor. The staff was very friendly and fast service. I had the sizzling eggs, pate, and sausage. It was very hot when brought out but that is what makes the sausage and paste (Cha) soft and easy to chew. I liked to dip the bread with the sauce within the skillet. I also had their popular Lychee Lemon juice, it was really good. My boyfriend really liked his beef stew egg skillet and bread. The beef was tender and went well with the eggs, potato, carrots, etc. We will be back to try their famous bun bo hue for sure.

Bun bo broth is delicious. And, we were given beef jerky as gifts after finishing our lunch.

Love soup! If you do too, this is the place for you!…read more Friend and I came Sunday night. It was busy. Busier than I expected and service was still great. It's quite lively. The ladies working here are kind and on top of things. My friend and I got the army stew to split. It was a TON of food. It was quite deceptive when it came out. When your order is brought out, they place a table top burner in your table first. Then the banchans come out. Banchans: - cucumbers: crisp and refreshing, mild spice - radish: very crunchy - kimchi: very tasty here - fish cakes: my fav, they are a bit sweeter here Then the main cauldron of soup is brought out. What's in it: - hot dogs/sausage: cut up and I think it's kielbasa - spam - meat chunks - oval rice cakes - tofu - a square of dried ramen noodles with American cheese - some veg like onion, green onion - tasty broth!! - bowl of rice too Let this cauldron boil up over the table top burner then dig in! This hit all the right spots, especially as the temperature is starting to cool down. There was so much food. My friend and I ate to our fill and had enough to each bring home leftovers.

Cozy, korean comfort food. Not necessarily a hole in the wall, but it's hidden away in the corner…read morebehind the Grams. The servers are aunties that won't check on you after every bite but will come over the second you raise your hand. I took my mom for lunch and we dug in a little too quick - photos were snapped after we've made a small dent on the food. We got the Seolleongtang and soondae platter which was plenty to share between two people. We ended up taking half of the soondae platter home and enjoying it for breakfast the day after. For those not familiar with Seolleongtang, the soup comes out very basic. You're given a bucket of scallions, a little pot of salt, and shaker of ground pepper to season the broth as you please. I recommend adding a few spoonfuls of the radish kimchi sauce. Speaking of the banchan, Jong Ro prepares some of the freshest and most flavorful banchans on the street. I wish they offered a menu option that was just a bowl of rice and bottomless banchan. The soondae was perfectly springy, paired with a salted shrimp sauce and flavored salt dip. The platter also came with boiled (or steamed?) pork belly, pig ear, and other pork innards that were nicely cooked. I love restaurants like this because they are simply good at what they do. Nothing is over-the-top. There is always a constant stream of customers. The times I've gone have been during your typical slow hours and the place was always 60% full. I imagine the house is full during dinner time or on weekends and rightfully so. Definitely stop by if you're looking for a heartwarming and belly filling comfort meal.

With the surprise closure of Red Flame, SO and I have been on the hunt for a new place for soup…read more As any fan of hot pot knows, there is a rare intersection of PRICE and QUALITY that makes a spot a repeat attraction. That makes it 'The' place to go, even if it's a little further out. I believe ZZ has the potential to be that place. When we stopped by it was empty. The menu was QR code only, I know this is a downside for some, not so much for me, but worth mentioning. There are 2 restrooms, single user, roomy and very ADA-accessible, the illuminated mirror is a very nice touch. And the food? First point is the price. You cannot beat this price, I believe. For two of us, our total was around $40-something. The food itself? Delightful. Attentive staff. The sauces available on the table were good. I did opt for mild heat level, since I like enjoying my food and not panting like I'm in Hell in this heatwave, and the broth was very good. A nitpick I often have with hot pot is that there is far too much cabbage, but in this case I felt like it was pretty balanced. All in all, I am excited to come by and give it another try. I have very high hopes for this spot.
