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 read more

I ordered the filet mignon and the ribeye, and while the flavor was good, I honestly think this place is pretty overrated. The portions were extremely small for how expensive everything was, especially the steak. I was surprised by how popular this spot is because the value just wasn't there for me. I also ordered takeout for banh canh, and I got frustrated because the noodles and soup were packed together instead of separated. By the time I got home, everything was soggy. It just felt kind of careless. Overall, the food tasted decent, but between the high prices, tiny portions, and disappointing takeout packaging, I personally wouldn't come back. read more

truly such a hidden oc gem! the food is consistently good in flavor and quality. the staff is always so nice, and fast. the food comes out pretty quickly and you usually rarely have to wait. i eat here at least twice a month usually and never left dissatisfied. i usually rotate between the bo luc lac, ribeye, or filet mignon. you can choose between white rice, red rice, or fries as a pairing and it usually comes with a salad as well. tastes and flavor is 5/5 they have some pretty cool appetizers like the soft shell crab, chicken skin chips, and calamari as well. traditional viet decorations, plenty of seatings but parking can get a bit tricky when it's busy read more

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! read more

Khoi Hung has the BEST sizzling steak platters and shaken beef (bo luc lac)! The meat is super tender and love that they do garlic noodles instead of rice for the shaken beef! Super flavorful and it comes with a yummy side salad too. The price is super reasonable and the food is fresh. Food takes a while to come out, but the staff are very kind and the food is well worth it! read more

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! read more

I recommend getting the ribeye steak with butter and garlic and red rice!! You wont be disappointed read more

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. read more

Still my favorite place for com bo luc lac. The beef was tender, buttery, garlicky, saucy and well flavored. The service is usually attentive and kind as well. Be ready to leave smelling heavily of grill and butter, though. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

Out of all the dishes we ordered, I would have to say that the meat dishes were the winner and what they are best at. We ordered: #4: Garlic butter wings were flavorful and had a thin layer of fresh crispness. #11 shaken beef - super soft, came with side of rice #14 ribeye came out on skillet - super soft, came with side of rice and fries #16 fried chicken with sticky rice - this one caught me by surprise. It was delicious. Triangular sticky rice, lightly fried and crispy exterior. The sauce is what makes this dish when you dip it with the chicken. #24 Bún riêu - flavorful rich broth with real crab roe and tofu #22 Bánh canh tôm của - least favorite out of all. Their banh cảnh is not what I'm used to. The noodles remind me of tteokbokki, the Korean rice cake noodles. It was chewy and thick and will expand in your tummy. The broth reminds me of Súp măng cầu the crab soup but wasn't thick. This version was totally different than what I was craving for and had a hard time finishing. It was my first time but my family second, if I come back with them again, definitely sticking to the meat dishes. 3.5 round to 4. read more

Craving steak with a Vietnamese twist? Who even thinks of that--and who nails it? Khởi Hưng Restaurant, that's who. After consulting the wise Yelp community, I grabbed the Missus and headed out. First impression: a charming hole-in-the-wall. Asian quaint and clean. Always a good sign. We ordered two steaks, served sizzling on a hot cast iron plate--love at first sizzle. The aroma of Vietnamese spices was irresistible, and the flavor did not disappoint. Vietnamese steak? Heck yeah, I'm a believer now. I'll be back--and maybe brush up on my Vietnamese before then. read more

F O O D I've been looking for another place that has Cornish hen other than $1.99 and I think I've found the one? The chicken was so moist, the fried layer thin and crispy and the sauce was good. We also ordered the ribeye steak with garlic butter and that was bomb as well. And I think the price point was super reasonable. I'll definitely be back! S E R V I C E Their menus are tucked under a glass cover on the table so we perused the menu right before hen we sat down. It's your typical Asian service; they took our order quickly and checked in once or twice. I went to the front to pay at the end of our meal. Very casual and there are larger tables available for bigger parties. L O C A T I O N We came for dinner on a weekend and fortunately half the businesses in the plaza were closed. The lot isn't huge and I can see it getting full fast during normal business hours. read more

I absolutely love eating at Khoi Hung. This place is a true hole-in-the-wall gem, and it's one of those spots I proudly take everyone I know to--and they all end up loving it. My go-to order is the ribeye with garlic. The sizzling steak comes out in a generous portion, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. It's served with crispy fries and a delicious, fresh salad, which makes the whole plate incredibly satisfying. Every time it hits the table, it's hard not to smile. They do have an extensive menu, but the ribeye is so good that I honestly haven't felt the need to try anything else yet--that's how much I enjoy it. If you're looking for bold flavors, great value, and a no-frills spot that delivers consistently excellent food, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend. read more

Vietnamese Restaurant with broad menu that includes noodles, rice, soups and sizzling steak plates. What was good: Sizzling Steak Plate + Rice/Fries (Carb) Plus Salad ($23). They really do this item well. I would say that if you've got a big appetite, definitely get an appetizer because it's not a huge portion of meat. The meat definitely comes out sizzling hot with oil and butter spraying almost everywhere, so don't wear anything fancy to this place. Between the Filet and the Rib-Eye you really can't go wrong, just a preference as the filet felt a bit leaner than the rib eye, but not dry. The restaurant is run by a small crew, but they are efficient and friendly. The restaurant feels like a warm hole in the wall that your auntie is serving you lunch to. They take credit cards and there's a small and tight parking lot out front shared with other businesses. read more

I like a good old style of Asian steaks since I used to go to Hong Kong coffee a lot to get their variety of steaks. I would say I'm pretty impressed with Vietnamese style of steak since all the flavors are familiar to me. I didn't expect any high-quality meat, knowing all the prices, so you don't come here with that kind of mindset - the same as you go to western steakhouses. Not only I love their tomato rice, but they're very flavorful. I got ribeye with garlic butter and it's just the best thing. I would love to try their chicken chips next time because I love good chicken skins. The food came out so fast. The staff are nice too . They have several entertainment inside the restaurant as well. read more

Food here is pretty good. Definitely light on the salt. We ordered a lot of food and finished everything, including the salads. Portions are on the smaller side. - Ribeye - cooked perfectly medium rare in garlic and butter. Would recommend. - Shaken Beef (Bo Luc Lac) - tender, cooked to medium well. Was supposed to come with rice but they gave us salad and then (over) charged us for the rice when we asked for it. Still would order again. - Ga Roti with fried sticky rice - The chicken was ok. Wouldn't order again, but the crispy sweet sticky rice was a hit. We'll definitely order those on the side the next time we're here. The sauce is DELICIOUS! - Banh Canh Tom Cua - the kids' favorite dish. Flavorful soup. Soft, chewy noodles. Delicious crab and shrimp clusters. - Calamari - Fried well but bland. Batter was good, but overall needed salt. Wouldn't order again. - Fried tofu - MY FAVORITE. We could not get enough of this. Would definitely order again. They used soft tofu so it was crispy on the outside and so soft, melt in your mouth inside. Dipped in the Chef's Special sauce that's served with the sweet sticky rice, perfection! Highly recommend. - Fries - basic fries. Good but not salted. Restaurant is small and clean. Service was slow, but they were all very friendly. Dishes were brought out one at a time and it took a while in between dishes so 3 of us were almost done with our meals before my daughter's came out. Luckily we ordered several appetizers so she was able to snack on those. We were also overcharged for rice that should've came with the Bo Luc Lac. Husband didn't realize until after he paid. Almost all the dishes came with salad (lettuce, onion, tomato) that had a very light dressing. It was actually pretty refreshing. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner and will definitely come back regularly. read more

Finally got to try the spot in person. And the food did not disappoint. I got the filet mignon with butter garlic sauce. The meat was cooked perfectly and the meat wee so tender. The shaken beef with rice was super flavorful and the meat tender as well. Since I love beef, it's a hard choice to say which one is better. I would say dependent on the mood. I recommend not to wear white or wear a napkin as a bib as it can splatter. And you have to go to register to pay. Would definitely come back! read more

I'm yeah I need a double triple portion next time lol yes that good... so tender and flavorful that my plate was practically licked clean through the use of my red rice. We had the fried calamari which was incredible, chicken wings garlic noodles and French fries were tasty as well. I didn't care how temp hot everything was it was just so dang good... you know the place is going to be tasty because it wasn't just Vietnamese people watching there lol. The wait staff were so friendly and nice... the ambiance was homey and the food was awesome. read more

My bro invited us over for dinner and I was excited that he wanted to come here. This place has become one of his family's favorites which I feel really good about, as I was the one who introduced him to Khoi Hung over 5 years ago. I also introduced my sister who lives in Studio City and she comes here pretty regularly whenever she visits her daughter in the OC. The place has been remodeled since the last time I was here a couple of years ago. It's lighter and brighter and a little more spacious. I've been having some good luck with Lamb Chops lately so I had already made up my mind that I will try their version here in garlic butter. So glad I did! The garlic butter with sautéed onions worked perfectly with the tender medium-rare lamb chops. The sweet/salty dipping sauce with chili also took the lamb chops to another level. My hubs went with one of my go-to items Com Ga Roti (fried chicken with special sauce) and he enjoyed it so much. My bro ordered the Ribeye in garlic butter, nephew opted for Ribeye in peppercorn sauce while my sis-in-law opted went with lightly breaded Salmon. Everyone enjoyed all 5 dishes, including 2 orders (5 pcs each) of Cha Gio. You know what else is great, all items were reasonably priced for the portion and the quality. read more

I absolutely love Khoi Hung! The prices here are amazing and the food never disappoints. On my most recent visit, we came on a Saturday night to no wait at all. The food came out quickly and piping hot. Bun Rieu: 4/5. While it may not be the best bun rieu I have had in my life, it's delicious! The bowl is huge and very flavorful. Ribeye with garlic butter: 5/5. This is what I usually order. It's so good and always cooked perfectly. I like to get it with the bread, but the rice is pretty good too. The sauce it comes with is very flavorful. Amazing deal for a ribeye steak! I will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area and want a great deal on food. For the price, Khoi Hung is better than a lot of places. Do yourself a favor and dine here! read more

First time here and so we tried a variety of dishes between the two of us. We came on a late Sunday afternoon. When we initially walked in, the restaurant had a musty smell, which was not pleasant. Perhaps they need to use better cleaning supplies. On to the food and service. A young girl took our order and she made a couple of recommendations. We ended up getting the fried calamari as an appetizer. It was just ok. He had the basic safe dish of vermicelli noodles with grilled pork, shrimp and eggroll. He ate all of it and said it was decent. I had the fried chicken dish and rice which I saw from another person who posted about it. There was nothing to rave about the fried chicken. In fact, it tasted like it had been sitting out a while, and I was quite disappointed. The best dish was the shaken beef. The beef chunks were tender and the sauce was tasty infused with garlic bits. If I return, I will try the ribeye steak, which seems to be the most popular item. A woman (not sure if she was the cook) came out and asked us if everything was fine. She was also kind about bringing us to go containers for our few bites of leftovers and even brought us fresh sauce containers. read more

Casual restaurant with quick service, and great quality Came here because the sizzling steak looked good but ordered the Com Ga Roti instead and I am so glad I did! The red rice was flavorful, the chef sauce was buttery and savory with the perfectly fried boneless chicken thigh. The side salad was the perfect acidity I needed for this meal. Overall really recommend this place if you want a quick bite in the area! Big perk - the price is unbeatable. I think my chicken plate was $14.99, this would be $18-$20 back home. read more

Good Food - A-! I was starving so I scarfed down two bowls of gooey soup and one plate of fried tofu. The tofu was outstanding given with a half plate of veggies. Service - B. They are so kind and friendly here. There is a language barrier and thank goodness was I had my client who speaks fluent Vietnamese so he was able to help me. Ambience - A-!

If I could go back to this place everyday I would! Everything tasted solid, I would say for the ribeye it had a bit of fat to it of course, but enough meat cooked just right. Lamb chops well flavored. And the mahi skin surprisingly was the best part of the protein itself. Love all the sides that come with it, it's a bang for your buck. Just be cautious do not ask for water, you get water from small styrofoam cups, 50 cents each. And they don't give you a discretion! So come prepared with your own water bottles and come hungry, you'll be taking a nap after this meal. read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch a couple days ago and we're glad we did. As someone who enjoys high end steakhouses, their sizzling rib eye here was delicious! You got your choice of rice or fries to go with it ( Seems like beef/steak dishes are their specialty. My wife got "banh canh tom cua" and she loved it. They gave her big chunk of real crab meat and the whole portion was huge. Soft shell crab was also a hit The chef/mom came out to chat with us to see if we liked our orders was a nice touch to our experience. We'll bring our parents back to try more food here read more

I've been here a couple of times and I always come back for the steak--it's incredibly flavorful, juicy, and served on a sizzling plate that keeps it hot the whole meal. I also tried their roti chicken and rice plate, which was delicious, especially with their house-made sauce. The restaurant is clean and simple, nothing too fancy, but exactly what you'd expect (and want) from a Vietnamese spot on Westminster. Service has always been good--staff are friendly, attentive, and quick. Overall, a solid place for comforting Vietnamese dishes and great steak. Highly recommend! read more

First impression as I entered the restaurant was the somewhat unpleasant smell that made me think this place isn't too great with cleanliness. I have to be honest that the smell was off-putting, and I thought about leaving for a few seconds... I decided to give this place a try out of curiosity. I'm not too crazy about beef/steak so I ordered different items. I guess this place is more catered to red meat dishes. The food was 3/5 and same for service. On another note, there was a variety of customers of different ethnicities that came here today, so it appeared that this place attracts not the typical Vietnamese crowd. Another note, It looked like they charged $0.50 for water. The bill did not itemize the charges, and I didn't care enough to ask, but I didn't order anything else besides two main dishes and water. I did ask for a refill of water, which the girl didn't do it the first time, and I had to ask a second time. Charging for water is a huge turn-off for me. I didn't hate it enough to boycott this place but there was nothing memorable about it for me to be back. read more
