    Lemongrass Chicken  6A. Lemongrass Chicken- Com Ga Xao Xa Ot
    Susana S.

    Wow ! This is the most delicious place ! I work close so always get the spring rolls for a quick lunch they're so good! but today I went with the Lemongrass Chicken! And wowww. Sooo delicious! Honestly one of the most delicious foods I've had in a longggg time!

    Roast Duck over Rice.
    Justin C.

    Food was fantastic. I had the duck over rice, and it was cooked perfectly with great flavor and texture. Every appetizer we tried was tasty and crisp, clearly made fresh and done right. Everything felt well prepared and satisfying. Service was smooth and attentive, especially for a newer restaurant. Staff was welcoming and made sure everything came out correctly. Ambiance is small but functional. The space is not huge, but it works well and feels comfortable for what it is. Overall, 10 out of 10 for a new restaurant. Great food, solid service, and a strong first impression.

    Roast Duck Noodle Soup
    Jennifer N.

    FOOD - Roast Duck Noodle Soup: egg noodles with roasted duck and bok choy. The soup was so savory. The duck was very meaty and plentiful. The portion was huge! I asked for no green onions and there was so much green onions! Took me a few minutes to scoop them out. This is possibly the best mi vit tiem I've ever had. 5/5 SERVICE: The young lady who took our order was very friendly (and pretty)! She was attentive and welcoming. 4.5/5 FINAL THOUGHTS: I would definitely come back if I'm ever in the area. The food was very good. My husband and kids enjoyed their pho. I was so sad that I didn't see bun rieu on their separate menu. That's what I was craving. Now I have to return for it!

    Get the wings!!

    The food was very good. It was hour and half before closing so the service was perfect. The place is big and clean. The food has flavor. We will def be back for more stuff.

    This Viet Restaurant has one of the best Bánh xèo I've ever had. The thin pancake has a slight chewy interior texture while the exterior is crispy and crunchy. It is stuffed with ground pork, shrimps, bean sprouts and mung beans and is eaten as a wrap with lettuce, mint and other pickled veggies which they give you a huge helping of. Dip it in their special fish sauce and you'll constantly crave for this incredibly tasty dish. Its large serving size is definitely shareable unless you have a huge appetite. The restaurant is bright and inviting and the servers are very attentive and friendly. Definitely coming back when I'm in the Reno area.

    The Golden Dragon took over the old location of Pho 999, in the Franktown Corners shopping center. The interior is spacious if not a bit spartan. We went with a large group of friends, so lots of pics of the dishes. The consensus was that the food was "Good". My wife had the Korean Short Ribs over Rice. I was able to sneak a few bits. This dish was really good. The short ribs had a nice, grilled taste. The ribs were flavorful and tender. Really Good. I had the House Special Pho. A traditional Pho dish, served with rare steak, brisket, tripe, tendon and meatballs. What determines if a Pho is good versus amazing is often the broth. On this occasion, I thought the broth was just "okay". Overall the dish was fine but not the best Pho I have ever had. The service was good, as the restaurant was quite busy for a Sunday evening. Would I come here again ? Sure. Enough of our friends seemed to enjoy their meals, so happy to try more dishes.

    My friends used to come to 999 Pho when it was still at this location and when my boyfriend and I heard that there's a new pho place that took over, we were excited to try it. Our first impression was that the atmosphere has been completely transformed and got a new make over - the interior of this restaurant is nice and spacious! We came on a Friday night and it was not completely busy to the point where we had to wait to be seated but quite a few tables, especially large parties, were filled. We were seated right away. Though the host asked another waitress to seat us but then the waitress went to cater to another table after being asked to do so. It was a few seconds until she realized we were waiting for her to seat us and apologized and told us we can go to table that we liked. My boyfriend and I ordered the house special pho, rare steak pho, spring rolls, and a thai tea. There was no sauce dishes on the table so we had to ask them for it when we received our pho. Food was okay. The biggest issue I had was that we never received the thai tea. It took me until after we got our pho that I realized we never received it. I was planning on asking the waitress for the status on it but at that point I didn't want it anymore after the service we experienced. They still charged us for the thai tea on the receipt so we had to ask them to remove it. A waitress came by and dropped off a complimentary green dessert which we appreciated though she didn't say a word to us or told us what it was. Overall, the service was really what negatively impacted our experience.

    Golden Dragon in Reno is a solid four star spot. We tried the beef noodle soup with rice noodles and the pho combo. Both dishes came out steaming hot which was amazing, especially on a cold day. The beef was tender and the broth had a comforting savory flavor. The pho did not taste as authentic as it could be, but it was still enjoyable and satisfying. Service was quick, portions were generous, and the atmosphere was relaxed. Overall, a good place for a warm bowl of noodles in Reno.

    First time coming here and the food and service is 5 Star. Started off with my drink, I had the Uber Slush and it was flavorful without being too sweet. The service was excellent, great friendly staff that helped explain the menu. My favorite was their chicken skewers and the banh knot. Definitely recommend trying them out!

    Located in the Franktown Corners Shopping Center. We were greeted and seated immediately, the place was clean and our server was so friendly. The spicy beef stew was good and came out piping hot! But it wasn't really spicy, had to add more hot sauce. My son got the beef stew noodle soup and it was really good! Really good flavor, had yams in it which was delicious! The soup bowls are very big btw. I tried the vermicelli stir fried beef, I wish there was as much meat to rice ratio, my only minor complaint. Because I also got the bbq banh mi sandwich and it was excellent!!! Lots of meat! Crunchy roll! Yum! Bathrooms are located outside to the left and need a key code.

    We loved the previous restaurant here. But that restaurant moved down to our part of town. So when we saw the "new" place open up we headed there as soon as the Vietnamese food craving hit. It's got the "vibe" of both Golden Flower AND 999 somehow. The Banh Xeo was more authentic than I have had anywhere else in or out of town. Something to specifically head there to get. We will return when we are in this part of town. Good stuff all around.

    02/13/2026: Fried Dumplings
    Sivilay T.

    Review #003 - 2026 The restaurant is big and clean. When we showed up at around 7:45 PM on Friday, Feb. 13th, we were seated right away as there were plenty of seats available. I ordered the roast duck noodle soup, which was actually pretty flavorful, but the duck pieces were dry. I asked for chili oil and the lady brought me some crushed fresh chilis and they were definitely SPICY! My daughter had the meatball pho. The broth was just ok, but it did the job to feed a hungry little girl. My friend had the pho dac biet, and she said the broth was just ok as well. Her daughter ordered a bunch of appetizers. She complained that the popcorn chicken wasn't good so she pretty much left the whole order untouched after only taking one piece. She had one piece of the fried dumpling and said it didn't taste good either, so she also left that whole order untouched. She enjoyed the fried egg rolls though so that was a good sign, one out of three is not a great ratio though. I liked my sugarcane drink, but it was really sweet so I hope they didn't add extra sugar. My daughter had the fresh orange juice, which I did specify not to add sugar and she finished it. My friend's daughter had the fresh squeezed limeade with sparkling water, which she enjoyed. Service was friendly, but not attentive as they rarely came to check on us. I guess we may have to come back and try their other dishes to see exactly where the 4.5-star rating came from.

    Passion fruit sugar cane juice.
    Victoria V.

    Came in and IT'S REMODELED. Place looks better than ever. Plenty of seating, some family style with benches on the wall. They also have a couple games inside for the kids. We tried multiple things. The eggrolls were nice and crispy!!! And the basil chicken appetizer was very crisp but it's a different kind of crisp, super delicious. I tried the banh canh and it was very good. The broth was tasty and the meats as well. I wish the noodles were a little bit more chewy, it kinda just fell apart, no gumminess to it. Tried the sugar cane juice original as well as the passionfruit sugar cane. Both were GREAT. The service was lovely, nice and friendly. They have multiple tvs playing all different types of things, so that was nice for a little entertainment. So far, we will be returning to try more items!

    If you're looking for amazing Korean food in the Reno/Sparks area, I highly recommend Wings Korean…read moreChicken! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and comforting. My absolute favorites are the tuna kimbap and the Korean corn dogs -- the tuna kimbap is so satisfying and packed with flavor, and the Korean corn dogs are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and seriously addictive. I also love the soy wings they are so crispy and delicious! The atmosphere is casual and cool, and it's become one of my go-to spots when I'm craving Korean food. If you haven't tried Wings Korean Chicken yet, definitely give it a shot. I'll definitely keep coming back for the tuna kimbap and corn dogs!

The employee asked the owner if it was allowed, and his first response was, "We don't allow dogs inside." I explained that he is a service dog. The owner then asked for paperwork to prove it. I respectfully told him that businesses are not allowed to require documentation for a service dog. His response was, "How am I supposed to know it's a service dog?" At that point, I ended up showing my personal medical paperwork, something I should never have felt pressured to do. I also explained that as a business owner, he should know the laws regarding service animals. We decided to leave without eating because the entire experience made us feel unwelcome, embarrassed, and we completely lost our appetite. I hope this serves as a reminder that businesses should educate themselves about the rights of people with disabilities and the laws protecting service dog handlers. No one should have to disclose private medical information just to be treated with respect.

We had time since we were just running errands to have a quick bite so we walked in. We were greeted upon entering. It's a cute little space and I looked over and saw two men working very hard and quickly in the kitchen. The gentleman that took our order was friendly enough. I ordered a Korean cheese corn dog with ketchup, mustard and sugar, an order of dumplings, pickled radishes, a plain croffle, and two drinks. That ran us about $24 with tax, it was a very affordable meal. I didn't want to push it and over order. I did want to try their popcorn chicken and wings. I ordered based solely on my cravings today and I was not disappointed. The food was delicious. I loved being able to order pickled radishes, that was a refreshing addition to my meal. I can't wait to come back. My son enjoyed his croffle and asked if when I bring him to get his haircut if we could stop by more often. We are already looking forward to our next meal!

    Sorry late review (2 weeks ago 1/14/26)…read more First time trying this place--such a cute little restaurant with about 4-5 tables. There was only one other couple dining in, and it was their first time as well. The owner was very pleasant, and it seems he and his brother also do the cooking, which gave the place a nice family-run feel. I ordered the 16-piece combo ($30) with two sides, which allowed me to try four different flavors. I went with two of their more popular options--Soy Garlic and Sweet & Spicy--along with K-Soy and Galbi. I really enjoyed the two sides; I chose the potato salad and mandu (dumplings). I definitely want to go back to try their popcorn chicken, popcorn tofu, and the croffle dessert. They also have a cute self-serve station with water, wipes, and utensils, which was a nice touch.

The burger had plenty of caramelized onions, which I'm a huge fan of, and everything was packed with flavor. The wait for the food was about an hour, but it was well worth it in the end. Also, don't miss the extra seating tucked away behind the bar if the front looks full. I also opted for their house michelada paired with a shot for $8 (I believe), which was a great deal. Another nice touch was their frequent visitor stamp card. I'll definitely be back and plan on trying the chicken wings next time. I saw so many people ordering them, and they looked absolutely delicious. Royce has a great atmosphere, great food, and easily earned a return visit from me.
