Shaken Beef Noodles (Bo Luc Lac)
Binh L.

Been here twice now and I have yet to eat anything I didn't like. It's located in a very small plaza with limited parking. Came here on a Monday night one time and I almost just had to go elsewhere because there was no parking available but luckily the universe heard my plea to devour another bite of the garlicky and buttery cuts of meat that are freshly prepared at Khoi Hung, and a parking spot magically appeared (someone left). I've ordered the shaken beef noodles, garlic butter ribeye, and garlic butter lamb chops. As I mentioned before, you can really taste the garlic and butter they use here. Everything was delicious. I loved the soft and chewy texture of the noodles, the steak bites were tender, and the watercress salad was a refreshing addition. The rib eye and lamb chops were tasty as well. Some cuts of the rib eye were tough to chew, but overall it was fine. The lamb chops were my favorite. Juicy, tender, and flavorful. I would want to order this again. I also ate it with a side salad. The service is pretty standard and the food comes out at a reasonable time. There are plenty of tables inside as well. Definitely looking forward to returning another time.

Update, I got the sizzling plate With grilled halibut garlic butter. OMG it was so good! They are always quick with their service and the food comes out hot, sizzling and incredibly tasty. Family owned business super friendly and the prices are all super reasonable. I can appreciate establishments like this and I will support them. Disregard the have eaten plate. I am so hungry. I forgot to snap the photo of the hell of it

My friend told me about this spot so we went to try it out. There's a good amount of parking, but I imagine it getting busy. There's a good amount of tables inside. I tried the garlic noodles with shaken beef and filet mignon The meat was good but some bites were rough to tear off. The garlic noodles were thin which I liked compared to other spots. The overall dishes were really good. Service was quick and they were friendly. I definitely want to come back.

I was near Westminister, so I had to stop by Khoʻi Hung and try the viral garlic ribeye. The place is in a strip mall and parking is tight. The restaurant is large inside, and clean and bright. I was seated at a booth and there were only 3 other tables dining since it was between lunch and dinner. The interior is decorated in an ocean theme. My good came out of the kitchen quickly. The spring rolls showed up first. They were good sized, with shrimp and veggies. The problem was the rice paper wrapping was tough and dry. They weren't freshly made. The peanut sauce was good. Next came the garlic ribeye on a sizzling platter!! The presentation is so nice. This steak comes out steaming and sizzling and smelling like a million bucks! The meat is tender and the garlic cloves are mild. It could use some seasoning, but a bit of soy sauce does help.

Shaken beef with garlic noodles and side salad

Had to come back for my favorite garlic noodles with shaken beef. They load it up with garlic and the meat is super tender. The food takes a bit of time to come out but the quality and kind staff make up for it. Seating is always ample. Everything is affordable too, highly recommend!

Calamari
Jenny T.

The restaurant felt really homey when I come in and sat down. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly. Even though there was a big birthday party sat in a whole section, they were still very prompt with service and checked on me a few times during my visit. For lunch I ordered a calamari and ribeye steak. My ribeye steak came out sizzling and covered in garlic on a bed of onions. I loved cutting the steak and smearing the garlic over every bite. The steak came with a baguette or some rice. I ordered both haha. The bread was good but the rice with the sauce and steak was the star. I ended taking the bread home. The calamari was very crispy and had thick cuts of squid. I really enjoyed it with the sauce and ended up eating the peppers that came with the calamari with the steak. This place makes my top 3 Bo Ne in so cal. Definitely coming back because I hear they have an amazing chicken skins dish!

Fresh squeezed orange juice
Diane T.

We've been here once before years ago. It's been a while but I was craving their garlic buttery sizzling iron skillet ribeye steak. We ordered that along with frog legs, soft shell crab, chicken wings, 2 bowls of seafood udon noodles, and filet mignon shaking beef with red rice. We also had Thai iced teas and fresh squeezed orange juice and coconut juice. The ribeye was delicious, the star of the meal. Tender and buttery, sizzling upon arrival. The frog legs were huge, as were the wings. Nothing special about them. They were not marinated or seasoned at all. Just fried crispy. Same thing with the soft shell crab which came 3 per order, except they weren't fried crispy. They stayed soft, and almost soaked up the oil. Again, not seasoned. Everything fried was served with a salt, pepper and lime/lemon dipping sauce. The filet mignon shaking beef had too much of a soy sauce base sauce, and was much more salty rather than savory, which I found off putting. The seafood udon was really good and had a delicious hearty base with balls of minced crab/shrimp in it. The udon noodles were larger and slipperier than normal, but still really good. The Thai iced teas were okay... a little on the sweet side. The fresh squeezed orange juice was really good though, as was the fresh coconut juice served in the actual coconut. The Vietnamese auntie that served us was really sweet too. If we do come back in the the future, we'll skip the fried stuff and go for the sizzling steaks, and pass on the shaking beef.

Limeade with sparkling water (soda chanh on the menu)
Betty G.

We were craving for halibut and came here for dinner last night. Foods still amazing. Price is the same but protein portion is smaller now. We used to get two (2) pieces of fish per order but only got one piece now. Service still very good. Note: your clothes and hair will have this lingering smell of their foods because majority of their dishes are served on their sizzling skillets!

Table with lots of flat screens all over the restaurant
Steve H.

Two of us decided to try Khoi Hung Restaurant since we both love meat. Service is very friendly! The restaurant is traditional Vietnamese that serves variety of traditional dishes with fusion take of steaks. Vibe is welcoming and love the flat screens all around the store. The menu is simple. We tried #11 Com Bo Luc Lac which is shaken beef with red rice. The meat is tender the sauce is on the sweeter side. And #12 filet mignon: rare with black pepper sauce. The black pepper sauce is not as strong or fragrant as we like. Maybe garlic butter is better choice. The meat is tender on the steak too. We enjoyed the lunch and food here. It's more Asian take of steak and traditional food. Good size and portions.

Lamb chops with garlic butter
Annie L.

If you're craving some protein, this place won't disappoint. Lamb chops and ribeye with garlic butter. The meats were perfectly seared and juicy and the garlic butter was amazing. Your meal arrives on a sizzling cast iron hot plate that keeps everything hot. Our meal came with rice and salad. Staff is friendly and considerate. The place was no frills and well kept. Will be back to try more items! Delicious!

Soft-Shell Crab Seuteed with Garlic Butter
Brandon N.

This place is hands down one of the biggest hidden gems in Orange County. From the moment you walk in, the restaurant feels cozy and welcoming. There's plenty of seating, TVs to keep you entertained, and the overall vibe is relaxed and comfortable. It wasn't too loud at all, which made it easy to actually enjoy the food and conversation. The service was excellent. All of the staff were extremely nice and attentive, checking up on us often. We ordered the Shaken Beef Rice along with French fries on the side, and it was amazing. The beef was incredibly tender and full of flavor, literally melting in your mouth with every bite. The fries were cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Simple, but done right. We also ordered the Ribeye with Garlic Butter and got the black peppercorn sauce on the side. The ribeye was delicious, packed with flavor, and not dry at all. It was cooked medium rare perfectly and came out on a hot sizzling skillet, which made it even better. The garlic butter was well balanced and didn't overpower the steak. As for the appetizers, another standout was the chicken skin chips. I believe it was still new and it wasn't on the menu yet as it was on the wall. They were extremely crispy with a good amount of spice, maybe a little on the spicy side but still very enjoyable. The dipping sauce was very unique and paired really well with the chicken. We also tried the soft-shell crab sautéed with garlic butter. The first few bites on the outside seemed a little dry at first, but once you get closer to the body and head of the crab, it becomes very juicy and flavorful. It tasted fresh and ocean like in a good way, and the dipping sauce they provide was perfect with the crab. My girlfriend and I ended up finishing all of the food, which we almost never do. That alone says how good everything was. The prices were absolutely worth it for the quality, the service was great, and overall this place is a must-try. I'll definitely be coming back soon. Another true hidden gem in OC.

Garlic & Butter Filet Mignon | IG @moniquedao
Monique D.

Dined here for the first time today and had a great experience. The garlic butter ribeye was absolutely delicious--juicy, flavorful, and with just the right amount of fat, exactly the way I like it. The garlic butter filet mignon was also excellent if you prefer a leaner cut of steak. Clumsy me accidentally touched the hot skillet and burned my finger while moving it around. One of the staff members noticed right away and was incredibly attentive. She advised me to dip my finger in the cup of ice water, gave me some ice and brought me another water for drinking. When I asked if they had any burn cream, she went to check and later came back to let me know they had run out. I appreciated her effort and care. All in all, the food was great, the service was wonderful, and the staff was genuinely attentive. I'll definitely be back for more delicious steak!

I honestly didn't like this place the first time I tried it awhile back.. went back to try it again and I actually loved everything. Ribeye with red rice and salad: 10/10 So good. I asked for my steak medium rare, and it came out perfectly cooked. Meat was soft. Came with a sweet soy sauce. Paired perfectly with the rice. The salad was refreshing with their light vinegar dressing. Com Ga Roti: 10/10 Fried chicken was as good as $1.99.

Do they accept credit card?

Yes with a surcharge

Are you open for business? I visited the other day and you were closed during the middle of the day. Thank you.

I remember calling to get food to go and i think they were gone on vacation for lunar new year, should be back in a few days.

Is it run by the new family now? Seems like it changed owners last year?

Same owner, same chef

Is it easy to find a parking lot, Thanks?

Your question doesn't make sense to answer.

As of November 5, how many tables do they have outside and how many people does each table seat? Also, how many tables do they have inside and how many people can sit at one table?

As of August 9th, 2021, there are no tables outside.

How is the bun rieu here?

In my opinion it's ok

This spot is located on the 2nd floor in a bustling shopping plaza, and by golly, I think y'all will really like it. Come check it out! You've gotta ascend their stairway to get to the top, and then you're greeted with an enormous banquet hall, which makes me personally feel really nostalgic, because I've been coming here since before I could read! Now, they've done away with the push carts, much like other places, but that doesn't mean the quality has gone down, because we got a bunch of stuff that tastes just like old times, and some stuff that's even better! But first, tea! Gotta get hot tea with your meal! It's a requirement. There's so many options to choose from, and it's up to you to decide what you want! We opt always to get some shu mai, hahr giao, and the footballs, or ham sui gok. Can't sleep on the footballs, guys. Now we got so many things, so here's a quick rundown: we got the shrimp cheong fun, the cheong fun with yeo tieow, the lo mai gai, gai lan, lo bak go, the fried taro balls, and there's probably other stuff we're missing, so just use your best judgement when you're picking it all out. Okay, so...there's dry eaters and there's dippers...you can have a wild guess as to who we are. Mustard, chili oil, soy sauce, we want it all! Look, it's dim sum; that means you can get whatever you'd like. Well...it actually means drink tea, but you catch my drift. We loved it here, and we're gonna keep coming back. So if it's a lazy sunday morning, and you don't wanna turn on the stove, take a short little trip on down to Seafood Cove TWO! That's right, the sequel.

Disappointed!!!…read more Service (0) - our server displayed quite an attitude from the beginning as if we were bothering him. The owners should training him or he probably shouldn't be working in food industry or any kind of customer service related business. The way he handled the empty plates, carried/delivered food, and how he spoke to customers is very disappointing for an establishment like Peking Gourmet. Ambiance (1) - needs to update or modernize this place. Too gloomy and dark.

Since this is a hot pot restaurant, good air conditioning is especially important. Unfortunately, the dining area feels warm, and combined with the heat and humidity from the hot pot, the atmosphere can become uncomfortable and make it difficult to fully enjoy the meal. In addition, the restaurant seems understaffed. You often have to wait quite a while for someone to come by when you want to reorder or even pay the bill. Unless I'm really craving the broth, I'd probably choose Shabuya instead.

It explains why you recognize the area with no tables. So parking is peak during busy hours and it's next door to Gen KBbq. Inside is inviting. Complimentary water while waiting for table. Was seated right away during lunch time (11am to 3pm). Table has two metal scoops, which one has holes for you dig your hotpot goodies. Chose House Spicy Broth and chose the lunch option (which includes only 3 meat and chicken). That's not bad for $22. Premium is $41 but adds other stuff including wagyu meat. You can order selected meat as separate to be added to your current AyCE plan. What's separate this place from others is that you can choose to have a divider and not. Divider is an option if you/your party don't like mixing stuff with another broth. Chose no divider. Drinks are included as well, water is by request only if you don't like soda (Pepsi products) Like other AyCE hot pots, there's the area where it has all your selected vegetables, seafood, noodles and sauces. All are continently label so you know what you are getting. There's an area where selected hot sides are there like pad sew/fried rice and even fried gyoza. Choosing no divider can be overwhelming because then pot is so big that not even four full plates is not enough to cover the whole pot. Was eating for over 30 minutes and I just realized I forgot I got shrimp Only complaint is that getting house spicy broth can be annoying because you will be scooping up those red schwann peppers everytime you dive into your hotpot. Overall, highly recommend on giving this place a try.
