Bun Rieu: excellent
Rachel T.

I found my new favorite vegetarian place . I didnt expect the Bun Rieu broth to be so flavorful. The toppings were diverse from vegan pork cake ( cha) to fried tofu, and the vegan crab cake ( rieu) was delicious. The vegan noodle was pretty decent, however I still prefer to order the Bun Rieu since I love savory / flavorful broth. We came late at around 7:15pm near closing time, every dish that we ordered were still delicious. Will come back again soon I want to try their spring rolls and broken rice. Service was friendly and fast.

False advertising.  Not available on Buddhist day (vegan day). And only one meal per order.

This place runs like a Vietnamese fish market. I called in at 3pm to ask if there is a $10.99 deal today and the lady answer the phone said "yes". I called back again at 4pm and asked if the $10.99 deal available today and she said yes again for the second time. So i placed two orders. I showed up to pick up my order and they wanted to charged me full price for the two items. I told them i called twice to verify the sale and now you said "no". This is switch and bait. I will never step my foot back into this store again. The people work here are rude and unprofessional.

Vermicelli bambou shoots

Amazing food and portion. The variety and the price, unbeatable. $14 for a dish on average! Try also the corn milk!

This is my husband's and my favorite vegetarian restaurant, even though we've tried many vegan and vegetarian spots in the area. We usually order to-go items like vegetarian bì, vegan egg rolls, cải xá bấu, and stir-fried vegetables. When dining in, I often get the vegetarian hủ tiếu or cơm tấm. Taste is always personal, but what keeps us coming back is the people here -- the staff are incredibly kind, friendly, and welcoming. The food is prepared quickly, which I really appreciate as someone with a busy schedule. The restaurant itself is spacious and offers a wide variety of vegetarian dishes, from snacks to full meals, so I always end up buying more than planned whenever I visit. Parking is a bit limited, which is probably the only reason I don't come more often.

This place is 100% plant-based. The imitiation meat is almost like real meat. Hard to tell the difference. We ordered #31 & #37. Both are equally delicious. Service is excellent. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Shout out to Nhi! The decor is very much like in Saigon. I highly recommend this restaurant. We will come back again to try the rest of the menu.

Fried rice cakes.

Golden Flower Veggies, been here twice, so had to get a review in. This restaurant is not flashy and blends into the neighborhood but it is decent place for vegetarian Vietnamese food lovers. Upon entering, we were quickly greeted. To the left is a trinket corner tucked near the entrance. Then, you'll see a to-go counter--stocked with fresh premade dishes like soups, tofu entree and snacks. Super convenient if you're in a rush but still want something homemade and tasty. If you buy 4 boxes it's $20. I decided to order 2 items to try and compare to another shop that I also support. We sat in and ordered from the menu. The food is flavorful, portions are good, and the nice lady is kind (but speaks limited English). Parking can be a bit tight in their private lot. We ordered the special noodle soup and fried rice cake! Both were delicious and worth trying again!! I personally like the rice cakes blended with eggs and topped with fresh chilies. I'll have to come back again to try other menu items.

Mi Tiem and Bot Chien with fried eggs
Gr8t M.

Took my friend to Golden Flower Veggie on my veggie day and it always hit the spot! We had the Bun Rieu, Mi Tiem and Bot Chien... The dishes are large and full of flavor with plenty of greeneries on the side. The stand is the crispy Bot Chien with fried eggs - totally delicious and flavorful... The ambiance is a typical family owned establishment with mix and match of spaces serving as "food to go" and various merchandise for sale. It can be busy during the lunch hours. Service is friendly and fast... attentive to our questions and always willing to suggest what is good for the day. Love it!

Got the tofu noodle soup and a version of the vermicelli noodles. Overall good and really sweet staff. Pretty quiet overall, but got busier right when we left

Leeza D.

I called in an order of vegetarian crab and egg noodle soup. I didn't expect to come into this restaurant and see a to go food counter with a variety of foods and treats. I picked up some sweet potato, dessert and jackfruit as a result. The menu is extensive and focuses on vegetarian Vietnamese cuisine. We will definitely come back to try more items. There is a private parking lot. Casual. Good service. Please come and create your own experience.

Bì cun chay

Great & healthy food, nice service here If you're vegetarian, this restaurant should be trying.

Menu (1 of 6). 12/24/2024
Sandra L.

This is a great place for vegetarians since everything on the menu is vegetarian friendly. Since this is a Vietnamese establishment, everything they offer is a vegetarian version of common Vietnamese dishes such as Bun Bo Hue, Phoenix, Vermicelli, etc. Everything we ordered was delicious, but I think the Hu Tieu (noodle soup) was a bit bland. I recommend the following dishes: #31. Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio ($13.95), #9. Goi Mit - jackfruit/lotus salad ($14.95), and #10. Mi Xao Gion ($14.95). Service was great and the restaurant is spacious. The parking lot is a bit small, but if you come early, there will be no problem.

Com tam
Jeanie N.

They have a really good com tam plate here! I also got the bot chien, which was good if that's your thing. The market inside is nice for to-go options and other snacks. The ladies working there are really sweet and helpful.

Randy G.

Finally had a chance to come to this place...Parking lot is really small so I never thought about coming here but it is around the corner almost from where i go every month so I walked there from the parking lot where Da Vien is at.... What i liked most is unlike many Vegan or Vegetarian places they don't over salt their foods to make up for lost flavors.... Fresh and refreshing.... Nice staff and let me sit even though my friend wasn't there yet.... My friend got the Duck Noodle Soup...which she enjoyed. I got the Bun Bi Cha Gio....which is a dry noodle dish which you normally would pour fish sauce over...I'm not sure what the vegetarian sauce is made of but it was good... They have a counter area with display of things to go which I plan to get some the next time I stop by.

The chicken was crispy and the dipping sauce gave it that extra yummy goodness. The dish also came with a side of broth that had chicken bits in it, was nice to help digest your dish. I also loved that they gave you pickled veggies & fresh veggies. We also ordered the Loi's Fusion Saltado, upgraded the rice to garlic egg fried rice. The beef was soft and tender, the fries were nice and crispy and the fried rice was fresh. You 100% need to get the Thai Tea. A lot of place add too much cream/half and half diluting the tea flavor, they do not skimp on the actual tea in their drink. The color speaks for itself on the dark orange hue!

I'm a bit late getting around to writing this, and unfortunately, they are already closed, but I still felt like I had to share my experience. I'm not completely surprised that they closed, especially after trying their bò né. I've had this dish many times at different places around Orange County, and unfortunately, this was probably the weakest version I've come across. The first thing that stood out was the presentation. As you can see in the picture, there was this purple-colored sauce on the meat itself, which honestly did not look very appetizing. To make things worse, the sauce was cold and did not heat in time with the skillet, which really took away from the experience. The flavor itself wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't anything memorable. It was just okay, and when you factor in the cold food and the presentation, it made the whole dish disappointing. With so many places around Orange County serving bò né at a much higher level, I would probably recommend spending your money elsewhere. If you were wondering whether you missed out on some hidden gem, don't worry, you didn't. This one felt more like a piece of coal than a diamond. That being said, every restaurant has its journey, and with more time, maybe they could have found their footing. Hopefully, they can take this experience as a lesson, refine their recipes, and bring something better in their next venture. I am rooting for you Loi!

This review I assume is the OG on Garden Grove -- parking could be tough during the weekend. OC & La, is a Vietnamese seafood spot for sharing a bunch of dishes. I found out that "OC" means snails!

We tried - razor clams, scallops (HUGE), the selection of salads are amazing so we got the spicy mango - House Special Mango Salad with squid & escargot -- is spicy , tangy, refreshing, and the refreshing taste!

I remember trying a place near Toby's university that tied Indian food to Chinese food. Some dishes succeeded and others I thought were a good experiment but didn't I've up to their promise. Brodard Chateau lives up to their promise as every dish I tried was just classic Vietnamese or put a good twist on a French dish by adding more Vietnamese elements to it. I loved my garlic noodles with the giant prawns. I loved the shaking beef. I loved the chateaubriand. The main dishes just had everything going for them. The service was great. Our server was on the ball, taking our order, as huge as it was, with aplomb and efficiency. He brought drinks, gave suggestions, and was just super professional. The ambiance gave off special occasion and/or upscale dining. I especially loved our upstairs table in the elevated dining room. It felt like a VIP area. The whole restaurant had a noticeable class to it that's hard to pin down to just a few elements. I just knew this food joint would be awesome to be a regular at. Overall, our dinner was good and made for a good night out. I hope I get a chance to come back soon and get another shot at this menu.

Be prepared: this place is incredibly popular, especially during peak hours. Parking can definitely be challenging because of how busy it is. The last time I visited on a Monday, the lot was completely full, and I ended up parking on the street. The restaurant is also primarily cash only, so come prepared. They open early, making it a perfect breakfast spot for an early bowl of pho. The pho broth is exactly what I want when I'm craving comfort food--clean, flavorful, and incredibly soothing. However, the star of the meal for me was the chả giò. Wow. Although they arrived after our pho, they came out at the perfect temperature. I was hesitant to take a bite right away because freshly fried food usually burns my mouth, but these were just right. Crispy, airy, savory, and absolutely delicious. Paired with their fish sauce, it was perfection. I enjoyed the egg rolls so much that next time I'm definitely ordering the egg roll vermicelli bowl. Service was friendly and prompt despite how busy it was, and it's clear the staff works hard to keep things moving. One thing I love is seeing all of the awards and accolades displayed on the walls. Phở 79 received the prestigious James Beard America's Classics Award, and it's easy to understand why after one meal here. This restaurant is truly an Orange County icon. The restaurant will soon be moving to a new location, as signs throughout the restaurant announce the upcoming move. While I'll miss the original spot, I'm excited for the new space--hopefully with more parking! Some places are worth the wait, and Phở 79 is absolutely one of them.
