Crispy Wings
Russell S.

I only ordered a couple items for the NFL DRAFT but very flavorful food. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the gal who helped me was super nice. There's also a pretty decent bar there. I just wanted something to gnaw on with my beer chaser. The Crispy Chicken wings were delicious and super crispy. I also had to get the Garlic Noodles with SHRIMP. They were huge. I am looking forward to my next visit there so I can sample more of the menu.

Blood Clams
Jeannie N.

Huge restaurant but not busy. We ordered the bloody clams and the scallops. The bloody clams were over done and chewy. The scallops had some sriracha on it which was all that you could taste. Took away from the actual scallop taste. We also ordered a noodle dish, bun cha, and tofu. The portions here are TINY for the price. The flavor of the main dishes were good but the positions don't justify the prices. Decoration of the restaurant was pretty. Lots of seating and even a private room for hosting a party. The waitress is friendly. We probably won't be coming back unfortunately due to the price and quantity of food ratio.

Menu

This Garlic and Chives is so much better than the one in Garden Grove and has many more decorations upon entering. We tried their special garlic crab, which is seasonally priced, along with shaken beef, egg rolls, spring rolls, garlic noodles with prawns and drinks. A word of advice is to get to know your server, as there is really not enough staff when it's busy. I'm glad I made it out here to try some delicious Vietnamese foods and nice environment.

Shaken beef

Located by a shopping center. This restaurant is able to accommodate large groups for any occasion. The food is so delicious. Each plate is very pleasing to the eye. They were short staffed, but once the order was placed, each dish came timely for us to enjoy each dish. The staff came to check if our order was complete and how everything was going. The crab was so well seasoned with garlic flavor. The garlic noodle was so well accompanied by the garlic flavored tiger shrimp were my highlights for the meal. Definitely will come back to try their other dishes on the menu.

We went on a Sunday at 1:30 and was seated right away. We were actually the only ones there and they gave us their full attention. Love the ambiance and lovely details of the decors and they also have a private room nicely decorated with a chandelier for special occasions. I inquired and they had a $600 consumable for 2 hours to reserve and it fits like 20 on this gorgeous long wooden table but they said the room can accomodate more. Food was really good and our fave was the mango pomelo salad. I also love the crispy noodles ghat came with yummy sauce and lots of veggies and meat on it. Actually everything was good. We also ordered the fried salmon (not in picture) and it was not fishy at all and very crispy. Servers were very attentive and nice! Loved our experience and definetly coming back.

I was a bit hangry and chose this restaurant for so home cook Vietnamese food. I ordered the caramelized salmon with rice and it absolutely hit the spot. Salmon was not too salty and complimented white rice well. They offer a nice menu of Vietnamese classic and fusion offerings. Casual. Good service. Good parking. Please come and create your own adventure.

I've been here before and have not really been wowed by the food. I came back to see if anything might have changed for the better. There were only two tables occupied when our family & I arrived for 7 pm dinner, but no one was out front to welcome us at all. It seemed like that was a harbinger of how the rest of the evening's dinner was going to be. We got several dishes , although mostly they were just shy of being mediocre to forgettable. They have a lot of dishes on the regular menu plus an all day specials menu. We got dishes from both menus. Chicken pho was so salty, and the chicken thigh slices were not tender. Braised vegetables was the usual mix of cauliflower, broccoli , carrots and some bokchoy. Fried crispy tofu was crispy but bland , even with the garlic and chives sprinkled over it and the sweet chili dipping sauce. Whole fried flounder with mango strips was smaller than I've had elsewhere. The sauce was exactly the same as the tofu except with shredded mango added. Grilled spareribs in lemongrass marinade did not really taste like it. Although it was tender. Rice was included and served in a hot metal pot that gave it a crispy crust, I prefer my rice to be soft. The decorative motif is also bordering on overly floral that it's almost tacky. These are my own personal impressions. Most unlikely that we'll be back.

Great service and delicious food! The decor is very pretty. Perfect for a celebration. Also found out they're Michelin recipients. We ordered the ahi tuna rolls. So bomb! My hubby ordered the spicy tofu and he inhaled it. The staff is very friendly and attentive. They want to make sure your experience and meal is great. We loved it so much we returned a few days later with my brothers.

Garlic and Chives Tofu
Emily L.

I've been here twice now, and I really really want to give this place 5 stars. All the food I've had so far is flavorful and the service is great, but some things are definitely not hitting the mark for me. Overall, I feel like it's not enough food for what you pay for. There's ample parking here. This restaurant is huge and every time I've come for lunch, it's practically empty. 5/5 Charboiled pork spring rolls: Delicious, has a crunch from wonton skin. I love when spring rolls have mint which is rare in the area 4/5 Combination beef pho: Great broth, but usually combination beef pho comes with meatballs which this one did not have. Definitely felt like they skimped out on meat. 3/5 Garlic and Chives fried tofu: Wanted to love this, but looked nothing like the photo. In the photo each piece is COVERED with a layer of garlic/chives and definitely felt like there was only a little sprinkle of it. Also, felt like the photo showed more pieces than what we were served. 4/5 Pork Ribs Clay Pot: Super flavorful and delicious. Just feel, again, that there could be more meat for this.

Salmon shrimp garlic rice

Ummm... what?!? This food was fire . The flavor was on point, prices good and portions good. Ambiance was beautiful! Very romantic. I went with a friend but can't wait to take the husband. We thought service wasn't good at first but as we left we realized there is a button the table for service. Ooops. I'm sure they would have come more often if we pushed it. Great date night spot!

Pomelo Salad
Diana I.

Yummy Vietnamese spot. The location is huge and great for groups. Although it's a casual place, it has a somewhat nicer upscale vibe to it and can be a good option for a family gathering or a celebration of some sort. I came here for lunch with a friend on a weekday and it wasn't too busy. We shared 3 dishes: - Pomelo salad: AMAZING! WOW! I absolutely loved this dish and still think about it and crave it. It's perfectly balanced, super refreshing and also has that umami flavor. Even if you don't really like grapefruit, I challenge you to try this dish. This one is up there on my top 3 favorite salads of all time. Ugh I want this right now as I'm typing this. Literally salivating dammit! - Chicken wings: yummy! Sticky, savory, delicious. - Garlic noodles with shrimp: just okay, a little bit underwhelming. It was lacking in the flavor department. It needed just a pinch of salt and a lot more garlic. Maybe it was just an off day. Service was fine. Parking: free in plaza lot

Came here to meet up with an old colleague and we had a blast. Ambience here was amazing with a 2019 Michelin Guide. Food was delicious and very tasty. Our favorite was their Nem Nuong, a meat roll and Bu loc lac which is a filet mignon dice and cooked medium rare. Service was excellent and they're open until 9:30 pm. Plenty of parking. A must visit if you're in the area. Cheers!

Honey walnut shrimp

This place needs is one of my favorite vietnamese restaurants in Artesia! The place is clean and beautifully decorated. staff is friendly and very helpful in answering questions. Their drinks are delicious and have a generous amount of alcohol. We got seated in one of their comfortable and spacious booths. I got myself started off with a lychee martini. We ordered their famous corn cheese as an appetizer, then the claypot pork spare ribs, walnut shrimp, and garlic fried rice for our mains. Lychee martini- Sweet and refreshing with a good amount of alcohol. I felt my drink after a few minutes and enjoyed eating the garnish lychee at the end. Corn cheese- This has got to be the best version of this dish I've ever had. Perfectly buttery and cheesy and practically melts in the mouth. Has a hint of sweetness to it as well. Walnut shrimp- Engulfed in a signature sweet and savory sauce, the shrimp has a nice crunch outside and soft inside. The walnuts add an extra depth of texture. Claypot pork spare ribs- The meat is perfectly tender and the caramelized sauce is delicious and pairs well with rice. Served with a side of vietnamese kimchi that was nice and crunchy with a sweet-tangy taste. Garlic fried rice- Abundantly sprinkled with pieces of fried garlic and a must try for those who adore the herb like I do! Paired perfectly with our entrees. Thanks for a wonderful meal!

Nice decoration for the cozy & clean atmosphere.

We come here every week. Today server Ashley Tran went outside and publicly accused me in front of…read moremy family and guests of not paying. This was absolutely embarrassing and offered terrible apology for the incident as we did pay already. Great food but today was a terrible experience.

The best late night comfort food! Soup Shop has good food, and they're open late. It's no wonder…read morethere's always people waiting for a table outside. We were craving some warm pho on a cold night, and Soup Shop sounded like the perfect spot. The plaza Soup Shop is located in is usually super crowded, but if you go after 9pm when most of the other restaurants and shops are closed, you'll find plenty of parking. Write your name down on the waiting list at the front podium and then wait for your name to be called. They have a few seats to wait right outside the door. Once we were seated, we were given menus. I really like that their menu has a lot of large photos of the dishes, so you know what you're getting! Once we ordered, the food came out pretty quickly despite being busy. For appetizers, we ordered the Crunchy Pork "Bao" since it sounded unique. Inside the bao is pork shoulder, mushroom, Vietnamese sausage, and quail egg. The outside has a thin, perfectly crispy layer that gives a nice little crunch when you bite into it. Really enjoyed these and would recommend! We also got the Crusted Parmesan Cauliflower. Not sure what's in the sauce, but it's sweet, tangy, and delicious! It's also topped with fried onion, cilantro, cucumber, and parmesan cheese. Also a winner! For entrees, we got the Chicken Pho and the Pho Ribeye. For the chicken Pho, you can get it with thigh or breast meat. I got it with breast meat, and they gave a good amount of meat! A little dry, but I appreciated that it was nice and lean. The flavor of the soup is really good. Pho Ribeye was also tasty! Hit the spot.
