    Vermicelli noodle pull

    Huynh Dining is located in the popular, uber-busy Paloma Plaza. Parking can be challenging in this tight and hustling plaza. The decor is simple with a few framed pictures of their specialty dishes. Several tables of 4 per table, so they could accommodate a couple of large parties of 8+ people. House music playing. One unisex restroom. The service was friendly, thoughtful, and welcoming. Vietnamese Ice Coffee (4/5). Bold, strong expresso with the right amount of condensed milk. Guaranteed to give you that oomph you need. Bun Bo Duoi Bo: spicy noodle soup, beef shank, tendon, ham, pork & blood cubes - oxtail (4/5). Spicy and sour broth came out with the right amount of heat. Others can request more shrimp paste & chili sauce if needed. The round noodles had the right amount of texture and softness. The meats were pretty good, though one of the ham slices could have been more tender. Support your local business.

    Here is my scoring card for this restaurant: 1) Location: ( 4Point ) - Great location for customer to see and find. Ok parking for street parking and back side with parking lot parking. 2) Decoration : (3 Point) - They still have the original decoration. Clean. 3) Price: ( 4 point)- The price is competitive but still a little bit pricey compare to other same stars and type food they serve 4) Quality and Taste : ( 3 point)- The quality is ok, food taste is good and portions are average . ( must be inflation ) 5) Type of cuisine standard : ( 4 point) - The style of Vietnamese food they serve is pretty close to the way it was prepare in Vietman. Not bad! But some dishes did have slightly modify to cater the customer's need Overall it's not bad and I thinks it's great to give it a try and let me know what you think.

    The Banh Beo here is incredible. Soft, fluffy, and topped with pork rinds that add the perfect savory crunch to the sweet nuoc mam. The jalapeño is extremely spicy, so be careful. This dish is an absolute must order. I rarely find Banh Beo made this well anywhere else. The Banh Bot Loc was alright. It was not my favorite from this spot, and I think there are better versions elsewhere, but it was still decent. The Bun Bo Hue leans sweeter than usual, but once I added lime and shrimp paste it balanced out really well. The portion of meat is not the most generous, but I appreciate that they give you a larger bowl so you can easily add all the veggies. You also get your own plate of vegetables instead of sharing, which is a huge bonus for me! Service was extremely attentive 5/5. Dishes were cleared almost instantly, and you can tell this is a hardworking mom and pop shop. Everyone here puts in effort, and it really shows.

    If Hue Resturuant is ever super busy, come to Huynh! It's in the same plaza right across the street from Hue. They serve similar if not the same type of vietnamese dishes at this place and it's just as good! The service was a bit slow but totally worth it! It's a spacious place for bigger parties to come eat! I got the BBH and it was packed with flavor and veggies! They even have the oxtail version! Come give it a try!

    This place have high ratings and we had check it out for ourselves. We went there for lunch on a weekday and this place was almost completely empty. They have an extensive menu. We ordered the Banh Beo, Banh Bot Loc, Bun Bo Duoi Bo, and Bun Tom Thit Nuong Cha Gio. The Banh Beo was mediocre, nothing special about it. The Banh Bot Loc looked as bad as it tasted. The Bun Bo Duoi Bo only had one small piece of oxtail in it. The broth was just ok. The Bun Tom Thit Nuong Cha Gio was one of the worst we ever had. The grilled pork was kinda on the tough side and it wasn't charred enough. It was lack of flavor as well. There are some many other Vietnamese restaurants in San Jose that serve better food. We were disappointed with our experience at this restaurant.

    My daughter insisted that we try out this restaurant that's serving "Huế" dishes. We came to check it out and it did not disappoint. Besides Bún Bò (or bún bò), we ordered bánh bèo, bánh ít ram, and bánh xèo. The bánh xèo was crunchy, the bánh ít ram was soft and chewy with the bonus crunch at the end, and the bánh bèo was right on with the right amount of crushed shrimp on each plate. I absolutely loved it because I now have options when craving Central Vietnamese dishes. I forgot to mention the Bún Bò: the broth was fragrant with lemongrass, and the spices were perfectly blended in with the broth. It wasn't that spicy; however, after adding in the extra chili, it was perfect. The restaurant is clean and the service is spot on. The parking for this restaurant can be tricky on the weekend, so plan accordingly. I definitely will be back the next time I am craving Huế dishes.

    Great Vietnamese food! This establishment has a menu that offers many choices and delivers wonderful quality dishes quickly. All of our choices were great. My favorite was the bun xeo, crisp and generously filled with pork whole shrimp and sprouts. Served with fresh herbs and leafy lettuce this dish was outstanding. My other favorite was the #1 appetizer, individually tiny cups of freshly steamed rice noodle batter topped with ground shrimp, and served with pork rind and a sauce that is perfect. Do yourself a favor and try #1; it's simply so delicious! Service was top notch and or food was ready very quickly. I look forward to returning for more great food!

    Final Thoughts: 4.21/5 My friends and I wanted a really simple dinner today and we were in the same plaza for a matcha drink, so we decided to stop by and this try place today. We honestly didn't want anything too heavy, so a lot of the food items that we got were just light foods. No entrees today and just a flight of appetizers. Kind of a fun thing to do since we were able to get a taste a little bit of everything. Overall, quite satisfied with this dining experience. It's really nothing extravagant, but it was just a simple dinner day. Food: Nem Cuốn: 4.3/5 This was personally my favorite dish here today. It's one of my go-to dishes because it's simple and refreshing, especially for a hot summer day. Their meat isn't the best that I have had, but it'll do. Perhaps it's missing another component to it, so it seemed kind of one dimensional on the seasoning. Not super oily, but didn't feel dry at the same time, which I appreciate. Ratio of protein to veggies is alright here. Definitely filling, which I really like. Works nicely with their fish sauce. They don't have the specific sauce for this roll though, which is a little disappointing, but their fish sauce did it just fine. Bánh Bột Lọc: 4.2/5 Second favorite on the table today. The ones provided seem to be the ones that are steamed in little bowls or pre-peeled because they didn't have the leaves present and was just in the little dish. The dough was a little too chewy for my liking. Not too much bite to it. Smelled quite nice and fresh. Meat was nicely seasoned and there was this nice layer of oil brushed on top and garnished with green onions and the fried pork fat (tép mỡ). It is exactly what it sounds like. Not the best for the arteries, but amazing for the soul. Super crispy and adds a nice texture component. Bánh Nậm: 4.2/5 This item was inside of the banana leaf today and what it is is a flat dough with minced meat and protein inside. Flavor profile is similar to bánh bèo. The dough has more of the bite here and the finish is an opaque dough versus a translucent one. Gỏi Cuốn Tôm: 4.0/5 This dish was also quite average for me. The shrimps were pretty plump, which is nice. What made this dish was the dipping sauce. Their peanut sauce is quite good. Something I like is the consistency of it. Very thick and very peanuty. Leans on being almost too peanuty for me actually. I would have liked more of the hoisin sauce, but that is a personal preference. Bánh Bèo: 4.0/5 There's really nothing too special about this dish. It's essentially steamed dough. The dough also doesn't have much chew to it either. This one cut really easily. I think what makes this dish is the fish sauce. Super simple, but quite the good appetizer. I appreciate the hefty amount of the finely minced shrimps for that umami flavor. This one is also topped off with the fried pork fat for that texture component. That combined with the fish sauce is really nice. Bì Cuốn: 3.8/5 This was my least favorite of the flight. Something about just the bì standing alone as the protein for this dish seemed really off. Seems to be just a preference thing for me. The sauce is really what tried to save it, but it still wasn't my favorite for today. Filling, veggies, and vermicelli are all added into this roll. The size is a fair size too, so at least that's satisfying. --------- Quality: Fair Their vegetables inside of the rolls appeared nice and green. Love the crunch from the lettuce inside. The rice paper was still nice and hydrated, so they seem to be made to order, which I appreciate. Other items are probably steamed and made in advance and then just reheated. Makes sense since these may take a while. The food came out quickly though, so I don't imagine that being the case. Price: Average perhaps For the items that we got today, I believe the price is quite average. I say average because their rolls do seem slightly smaller than what I have gotten from other restaurants. They appear longer, but significantly skinnier. Perhaps I prefer this though because the ratio is better. For appetizers, the range is within $6 to $8. Entrees will currently range from $16 to $19. Service: Sweet They were very nice. Nothing too significant to note. Took our order, brought out the foods, and then we paid at the front at the end. I appreciate our waitress repeating our order back to us though since we did get a flight of items like that. Ambiance: Small and homey The interior is your average Vietnamese restaurant. Quite the small area, but it seems to work for them. Just three columns of tables and very simple interior. Location/Parking: Paloma Plaza This plaza is not my favorite plaza to be at. Yes, they do have a lot of restaurants and little boba shops here, which is nice. Highly saturated with Asian foods. For parking, the spaces can be small and finding parking can sometimes be a task. Drivers here are interesting too. Kind of just never know what you're going to see around here.

    This place is very underrated. I can't understand why people would wait an hour for Huế Restaurant across the street when Huỳnh Dining is just as good if not better and without a wait. We walked right in on a Sunday at 12pm. Service was fast. The food quality here is very good. The banh beo, bánh nam, and it ram are all solid. Today was my first time trying the bánh xèo and it was excellent - very thin batter and super crispy. Highly recommend.

    Bun Bo with oxftail: 4/5. Minus one star for two tiny oxtail pieces for $2 extra than Ty e regular Bun Bo. Definitely not worth it. Otherwise, it's on the above average side. Just order the regular or one with the pork knuckle. Service-wise, there isn't much, but definitely not the worst among Vietnamese restaurants. The waiter was very polite tho. This place needs more TLC. Will be back for other items.

Five stars from me. I'll definitely be back; next time I've got my eye on the brisket. Honestly, it's tough to find really good pho in this part of San Jose without heading up to North San Jose or Milpitas, but if you're in the Cambrian area, this might be your spot.
