1. The rolled meat was good, and I really like the Jellycake! 2. The spot is like a small deli spot! The interior is cozy! 3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! 4. There are no seatings! 5. Parking lot has a lot of spots, but it can get crowded depending on time and day! Note: cash only! Photo: Gio Thu and Pandan Mung Bean Jellycake read more

Stop wasting money on the grocery store bought meat paste that is spoiled straight from the store. This place has the freshest meat paste to use for meatballs. read more

I always visit here when I come to California (SoCal). The Cha Lua is HEFTY and it's super good. My favorite is definitely the cinnamon flavored (Chả Quế) & steamed regular Cha Lua (Giò lụa). I'll definitely come back and maybe I'll try something different next time hehe ~ read more

First timer here, visiting SJ for a family trip. Sandwiches are good. Other items are good too. Giving it 4 stars bc they have no restroom at this shop or anywhere in this plaza. read more

Their garlic cha and cinnamon cha are amazing. They sell already steamed, fried, and raw cha if you wanna cook it at home. There is usually a line. No tables. This is a take-out/ walk-up to order space. Cash only. Service is grouchy. Our family will be back soon. read more

Everything here looks like it has fillers and get rotten in fridge after only 45 days. Cha should not get spoiled so easliry. Look at the other reviews read more

Best cha lửa.can taste the cleanliness. No starchy after taste. Made fresh daily. Service is excellent. Gotta try the steamed chicken mushroom read more

I always stop by here and get a few cha lua for my family that don't live here. They always request it before my road trip. They have fresh gio lua, but I get the ones in the fridge due to the drive. The fresh ones may become spoiled during the long drive. It's a small store. It's very upfront. I just ask what I need, and I'm out the door in 60 seconds. read more

I love their cha lua and cha chien here. Its super good and its actually cheaper than the ones u get from the supermarket. Only downside is that its cash only. Lots of parking. read more

Good food and good prices with a lot of variety in the store we come back every 2 weeks to try different foods

THIS IS THE MOST DISHONEST PLACE ever! PLEASE DONT EVER BUY FROM HERE. THEY ARE A BUNCH OF SCAMMERS AND THE OWNER IS MONEY GREEDY. My family and I order Cha lua for pick up. Prepay for it to pick up the following day. We came during there open hours but they somehow was closed! THEY never call us to remind us to pick up. We call the owner and confronted him. Very rude owner. He say too bad, he cannot refund the money. He say it was our fault for coming late. WE came during there open hours too! So we have to accept the money lost. Very very dishonest and scamming. Chủ nay o buôn bán rất là thức Đức! Xin hãy tránh xa. read more

Buying at this place many times but this time I'm so disappointed. I ordered 3 banh gio, 3 banh giay, 2 cha but banh gio are literally old ones. It turned black the day after and the dough were dry!!! Need to throw them all ... My total bill is over $24 and those are not worth. Don't recommend for you guys. read more

Duc Huong Cha Lua - This is banh gio?!!! - Vietnamese Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Scam alert! I gave a $20 bill to buy two meat loafs. The old owner quickly swaps my bill with a $10 bill when I was putting back my cash to my wallet. He left the $10 on the counter and pretend that what I gave him. Be careful with his dirty trick. read more

Chiều Hôm qua 1/13/23 mua 5 cây chả lụa để ăn và biếu Tết. Tối về cắt ăn thấy nhớt và hơi chua. Hôm nay mang ra tiệm xin đổi chả khác, nói nhỏ với chủ tiệm vì ko muốn làm rùm beng.

Good banh Chung and Banh gio I enjoyed them much. Will come again! I like this place.

I am very satisfied when I come here to buy cha. Courteous staff that answer any questions I have, despite English clearly being their second language. I feel that prices are fair, especially when tasting the cha - It's some of the best I've had in OC. Please be aware that it is cash only! Will definitely come again. read more

How could they sell this. It's not fully cooked which is super hard and dry. This banh gio is over night and The meat turned dark. The quality decreases dramatically. Unethical place while selling old for for customers. read more

Last year we were introduced to Duc Huong for their "fabulous" bánh Chung (Vietnamese traditional squared glutinous rice cake for Lunar New Year) that we loved it very much. So naturally we came back for more; we purchased 4 pieces so that we can gift away to someone! Of course the cakes had been kept in the refrigerator (not freezer) as for being meat product! This morning we decided to open one as we couldn't wait any longer for that craving taste!...then we found disappointments all over. Here is the list: 1- The balance between mung bean, glutinous rice and meat is no longer there. Too much rice was used. 2- Scattered areas of uncooked rice were evident! 3- High pricing at $38 a piece does not reflect well here. For those reasons we decided to return the goods. The man at the counter wasn't impressed and had became upset. He started to accuse us for putting the cake in the freezer. He claimed how unethical we are to return the cakes and cursed that karma will find us to harm our children and grand children!!! How unethical for a business only take cash and do not issue receipts??? We didn't want to putting up a scene in public but feel that it is important for the public to know, so here is what the future customers need ti understand what can happen to them! We believe in good quality deserved good price, means when it is not ,.... Living in this part of the world where everyone has the right to return the faulty or not as expected goods; range from a car to a bottle of milk. It is our right! To deny the return, they should have displayed a big sign in the shop saying "Goods out of this shop will not be returned". Do that and let see how many customers will come. Oh! Don't come back he also barked!! What kind of business man would that be? A disgruntled and never come back customer Caption for the photo: Look at the rice color= not enough cooking time so the color from the wrapping leaves could not show Deteriorated pieces due to uncooked rice The mung bean evidently cooked and mashed separately to cut time read more

Duc Huong Cha Lua - Vietnamese Near Me - Garden Grove, California

As one can see from my picture, you will come out completely satisfied. What is Cha lua? Cha lua is basically made of pork and the best translation would be Pork Roll. Traditionally, cha lua is made of lean pork, potato starch, garlic, ground black pepper and nuoc mam (fish sauce). The pork here is pounded really well until it becomes a paste and then rolled in banana leaves to be steamed. It is also important to note the pork has to be pounded until it becomes pasty; it cannot be chopped or ground. There are also many types of cha, including my favorite cha chien, which is fried, and cha hue which includes whole black peppercorns. Even though this place is a small mom and pop 10x10 store, they specialize in cha lua, cha chien, and many types of cha. It goes well with banh cuon, white flour crepes, or com tham (broken rice dish), in a banh mi sandwich, with rice, or by itself. A good snack overall. The prices are decent as well as friendly and fast service. Right next to BOILING CRAB, but a BIG hassle to park on weekends. Park in the back if you don't want to waste time looking. read more

Duc Huong Cha Lua - Vietnamese Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Visit During COVID-19: This is by far my favorite cha lua establishment! Parking isn't too bad since it is a huge plaza, but can be packed if you stop by on a weekend! Pricing: Small - $6 (1lb) / Large - $12 (2lb). I've tried the banh gio and I was a little disappointed... The banh gio is definitely smaller with little stuffings than most places I've had.. (-1 point) Overall, I would stop by to buy more cha lua! *Note: Cash only! (Even during COVID)* read more

I had chả lụa, chả bò, chả gà nấm hương here many times. They are great. Just one complaint about the service. They never answered their phone and the business hours are not complying with what the sign says. But I like their food here so I keep coming back. read more

Banh Giò here is smaller in size than other places, not flavorful, old, and dry. It costs $2.50 without any quail egg. Luckily I bought only one and never again. I'm throwing the rest away because it's too dry. read more

My favorite place in OC for cha. Always buy a ton to freeze when traveling to Cali. I think their prices did thơ up but not by much

One of the best chã lửa I've ever had! This place is known for their daily cooked batches of chã lửa or aka pork sausage/ham.

Chả lụa is always hot and good, but last time I bought the bánh dầy and it tasted horrible, kinda uncooked so I had to throw them away.

I used to support this store wherever I go to travel in LA or Texas. But the last time I bought cha in LA location, the cha was not cook well done and the taste of cha went down the quality. I felt disappointed with this business location. Also I have read a few bad customer services, bad quality of food for the consumer complaints. I felt sorry for their loss to do the business like this. read more

Came here for some cha lua.. and boy do they have some.. piles and piles of them made fresh (and still warm when I picked some up). Their cha lua was decent.. and seems to be the majority of what they sell here. I got the "sour" meat rolls as well.. I am not a fan (but maybe I just don't like the taste?). Prices are a little pricey, but at least the cha lua is fresh. read more

The date of this review is November 5, 2016. Reviews on Yelp and elsewhere, all point to Duc Huong Cha Lua as having the best Cha Lua (Vietnamese Pork Roll) in Southern California. Today I went there, around 10:40 a.m., to sample their Cha Lua. I purchased one large roll, four small regular rolls, and one spicy roll. All the rolls were very fresh as they were still warm and hot. They also have other varieties of the Cha Lua. The large roll is priced at $10.50 while the smaller ones are priced at $5.00. The store is very small in size but the parking lot is very large. There are many Vietnamese restaurants in the area as well as an Asian supermarket. The store manager was very cordial and helpful. She explained to me the varieties of Cha Lua that they make. The store sells only the Cha Lua product line. When I got home, everybody wanted to try the Cha Lua. By the way, they were still warm. I sliced the roll and sautéed them in a pan. I cracked a few eggs on top. The entire roll was consumed in one sitting. Just be aware that they only accept cash. But have no fear, a Bank of America ATM is only a couple of minutes away on foot. My suggestion is to arrive there early before the customers of Boiling Crab (primarily younger Asian folks) hog the parking lot around noon time. **** Inline update as of 11/12/2016 **** After a week has gone by, my family had the opportunity to try one of the smaller rolls. These smaller rolls are priced at $5.00 each compared to the larger roll priced at $10.50. For sure the larger roll is better value. I carved a few slices (from the smaller roll) to use for cooking. The taste of the Cha Lua was overwhelmed with the banana leaf. It appears to me that the moisture from the banana leaf found its way to the meat inside. Most of my family members did not like the smell or the taste of the smaller Cha Lua rolls. We could not taste the meat but instead tasted heavy banana leaf. I am not sure if leaving the meat in the roll, wrapped with the banana leaf, has contributed to the overwhelming banana taste of these rolls. Perhaps I should have removed the meat inside the smaller rolls and wrapped them with seran wrap (plastic). read more

I had a very quick in and out purchase here this morning. Came in at around 7:30 am and bought the fresh meat loaf and the fried meatloaf. Both were just recently made, hot, and ready to eat. They take cash only. The place is clean and small. Nothing amazing or significant in terms of decoration. Bring cash as they will not take credit cards. read more

My family has been coming here for years. Its the only place I can think of that they go to get cha from. Whenever family from out of state/country come, they go here. Whenever we're in the OC, we come here. Its a small little store in a huge plaza so there's tons of parking - this store has a variety of different kinds of Cha and its usually always fresh (they do have some that are in the fridge/freezer area). The cha here is really great for everything. You can literally eat cha with anything.. well, okay almost anything. LOL. read more

The cha lua here was very good. I bought a bunch to bring back to Seattle. Will definitely order more next time I come back to Cali.

The food here is good but they don't ever answer their phone and service is below standard.
