We have come here about a dozen times, even at their prior location on Bolsa Ave. They have relocated to a corner spot that is smaller and cozier, but these padded chairs are not conducive for large groups like their prior wooden ones . Our party of 10 were banging on each other's armchairs trying to get in and out of our seats. My banh canh was flavorful but the ratio of tom cua to noodles was so sparse. I was not full after eating it. The hot tea is served in individual paper coffee cups, which was alittle weird. The rest of my table had all their popular items. My sister said their bun rieu was C that morning (Saturday at 9am). read more

I used to be a customer at this restaurant when it was located on Bolsa Avenue. I thought it was closed permanently, but my friends told me it had moved to this new location at the corner of Westminster and Newland. Last weekend, we went there to dine in, but we regretted wasting our time and money. I ordered Bun Rieu Cua Tuoi, but the broth was too salty, and I thought I was drinking salt water. Toppings were much fewer than those of other competitors. I just ate as little as one-third and then gave up. One of my friends ordered Mien Vit Sao Mang. The broth was still salty, but it was not that bad, compared to mine. However, the duck meat was undercooked, and the portion was much smaller. Another friend ordered Bun Cha Ha Noi. The Meat wasn't that juicy, but dry, and the portion was much smaller as well. The last one ordered Thanh Tri Dac Biet. Cha Lua and Cha Chien weren't fresh, and Nem Chua tasted so strange. Thit Heo Xay wrapped inside Banh Uot was tasteless, and Banh Tom Chien was overcooked. Generally speaking, it was a bad dining experience and a huge disappointment. Prices were reasonable, but the quality of the food was bad, and the portions were much smaller than those of other competitors. For such reasons, we'll never come back there. read more

We came here together for Mother's Day because my mom loves this place. It was my first time so I was pretty excited to try a new spot she had found with my dad. The inside is very tight niche, rowdy with everyone talking, but also comforting and nostalgic. My dad got the bun rieu without the snails, my brother got the dry noodles with grilled pork and egg rolls, and finally my mom and I got the same thing (bun rieu with oc). Once we ordered, the waitress gave us a pleasant surprise that for Mother's Day our mom gets to pick one additional food item for free and she can take it home. I thought that was the sweetest and best customer service I've ever experienced! Bun Rieu (with and w/out snail) - 4.5/5 I like that the base is clear and fresh. It's not super salty, but makes sense because they give you shrimp paste on the side and you can adjust the sodium level accordingly. There was a bit too much of the noodles to protein ration though Bun Thit Nuong - 4.5/5 it was flavorful and eggroll was perfectly crunchy. The ratio of noodles to protein was a bit out of portion, but not unbearable. read more

Took my parents here for lunch on a Friday afternoon. It's a pretty busy place considering the reviews don't show it. My mom has been here several times and really loves their cooking and she's picky considering she knows how to make most of this food. This restaurant is known for their duck soup. The duck meat looks nicely cooked and tender. The flavor was amazing. Bun thit nhon was really good as well especially the egg roll. The rapper was so different from anything I've tried extra crispy! Service was fine and the place is clean and bright located in a little shopping center. That's pretty rundown. Apple parking. read more

Don't be discouraged by the mixed reviews, we were a little concerned at first, but we are glad we trusted our Vietnamese Daughter-in-law. This is an amazing, different-from-you-typical pho & sandwich Vietnamese food that you'd be glad that you tried! The Dac Biet dishes are make your own lettuce wraps. Fun, delicious, and healthy. Porridge was my favorite, soothing and light with lots of hidden treasures. Duck was one of their must-try specialties. Highly recommended for this popular authentic Vietnamese restaurant! read more

If you're looking for an authentic Vietnamese steamed rice roll spot that stays open later than most, this is the place. While steamed rice rolls (banh cuon) is traditionally more of a morning to early afternoon dish, it's hard to find a spot that serves it into the evening. so the fact that they're open until 8pm is a huge plus. My parents were craving steamed rice rolls for dinner and I immediately thought of this spot. I ordered the #17 (grounded mixed pork rice roll with sliced steamed pork). The rice rolls came out soft and warm. It was super comforting and it definitely hit the spot. Service here is quick and is great if you want to dine in without a long wait. Also, it's a casual kind of place. read more

Hong Mai Restaurant has been around for decades. I thought it had closed permanently, but they've recently relocated. I came here for dinner on a weekday and was surprised, it wasn't as crowded as their old location in Catinat. The new restaurant is small, but there were plenty of empty tables. The food came out very quickly. I ordered Bún Vịt Xào Măng (duck with rice noodle soup, served with cabbage salad), one of their signature dishes. The duck was tender, and the ginger sauce made it even better. I requested duck legs only, but they still included some bones and wings. I also tried Cơm Tấm Bì Chả Gà Ốp La, but I don't think it's their specialty, it wasn't very good. Service was fast and friendly, and it was easy to find parking nearby. read more

We first decided to try this spot by chance because another restaurant nearby we wanted to try was closed. Ordered the meatball vermicelli soup for my son and the broth was so flavorful and yummy. We came back recently and tried their crab and shrimp egg rolls, fried sweet potatoes with shrimp, and veggie banh xeo. All were very delicious and the portions were so big we barely had room on our table. Service was good and the restaurant was clean and busy on a Sunday. read more

I've been a local fan of Hong Mai since their original location. They just moved here a couple of years ago but the quality has still remained the same. I absolutely love their duck noodles! The quality of the cabbage salad is so fresh and the duck portion is generous with a lot of meat. The soup itself is very flavorful and the portion is a rather good size. Another item that I would always recommend and get myself here are the egg-rolls. They are so good and honestly I can eat the entire portion myself. Those two are the two I would highly recommend. The location is just a bit tighter than the other but it's not bad. The service was good. They were nice to bring us extra bowls and scissors for the kids without us asking. They were attentive and helped us everytime we needed anything. The bathroom was pretty clean as well. read more

Hong Mai - My favorite Viet restaurant for Banh Cuon ( steamed rice rolls) and Mien Vit xáo măng. Their flavors are just the same as 8 years ago. Sometimes I crave the vermicelli duck noodle and specifically the one at Hong Mai only! Clear broth, duck meat doesn't have a lot of fat and cooked well ( some place it is so dried), meat are juicy and tender. has such a comforting flavor and nostalgic vibe. Restaurant is clean and service were very nice. Even the condiments/ togo box comes along with specific nuoc mam for each dish. Would love to come back to try Bun Moc read more

I had a bit of a frustrating experience today with a duck noodle soup order. My friend's portion was full of meat, while mine had noticeably more bones. There was some meat, but it just wasn't balanced. I calmly mentioned it, hoping they'd understand and maybe offer to fix it. Instead, they just told me to 'look again' as if I couldn't see for myself. And then they got a bit passive-aggressive and said next time I should ask for more meat upfront--like, how was I supposed to know that's even an option? If you've read this far, you've probably had a little chuckle at how silly it all is. Safe to say I'm skipping this place next time! Mình vừa có một trải nghiệm hơi bực mình hôm nay khi gọi bún măng vịt. Phần của bạn mình thì nhiều thịt, còn phần của mình thì xương nhiều hơn hẳn. Cũng có thịt, nhưng rõ ràng không cân đối. Mình góp ý nhẹ nhàng, mong họ hiểu và sửa giúp, thì họ lại bảo mình 'nhìn lại đi' như thể mình không thấy rõ. Rồi họ còn nói kiểu hơi mỉa mai là lần sau muốn nhiều thịt thì phải nói trước--làm như mình phải tự biết trước vậy. Nếu bạn đọc đến đây, chắc bạn cũng thấy chuyện này buồn cười cỡ nào. Nói chung lần sau mình sẽ né quán này. read more

They are back!! We used to love going to their old location in Bolsa, but they re-opened here in Westminster. Their food is always on point.

Ordered the Bun Goi Vit and it was a complete mess. The duck was undercooked, pink in the center, and clearly unsafe. I should have stopped after the first bite--partly my fault. A few hours later, I was violently sick with nausea, nonstop vomiting, and full-blown food poisoning. The dish was mostly bones with barely any meat. What little meat there was felt rubbery and off. It looked and tasted like something thrown together without any care or attention. No restaurant should be serving food like this. If you are in the mood for a hospital visit and a ruined night, this is your spot. Never coming back. read more

My favorite mom&pop shop with a 2025 comeback!! Soft grand opening with their famous bun vit sao mang with mien (bamboo duck soup with mung bean noodle) and their OG rice roll items. I ordered just the soup tonight and it hit the spot, fatty duck, heart warming soup and their fragrant ginger dipping sauce was all I needed. This new restaurant location has the perfect ambiance, laid back, cozy and inviting. Looking forward to more of their menu roll out. read more

The duck noodles here are top notch. The soup is clear and sweet from the duck and doesn't taste watery after eating like other places because of msg. The duck meat is tender and sweet, the dipping sauce is great. The other dishes are also delicious. Especially the rice rolls & the fish cake. read more

We had a disappointing experience at Hong Mai on Westminster and Newland today. We pointed out to the staff that three pieces of duck meat were discolored, with a dull greenish tint. The cook came out and told us that the discoloration was perfectly normal, without providing any explanation or offering to exchange a new plate. We were very disappointed and will definitely not be returning. Not even say 'Sorry' but just take money and the meat is very normal.. read more
