No frills banh cuon spot. Grandma was there, not friendly. She speaks Cantonese and Vietnamese. She suggests 1 pound for every 2 people. You gotta order at the door. Peeking inside, the place looks really unsanitary. Bowls and messy everywhere. Parking does suck. Main Menu: banh khong = plain banh hanh = fried onions on top banh tom chay = Ground Shrimp banh thit = minced pork hu tieu = thin noodles mi quang nghe = noodles (seems like you may need to order a day before) nuon mam = fish sauce They do sell other things but I'm not sure if they are seasonal. We bought 3 pounds banh thit (with pork) and 2 fried dough balls with mung inside. Delicious!!! Banh cuon was syran wrapped, no aluminum tray. read more

Talk about hole in the wall! I was super excited to come here cause I'm sick and tired of paying $20 for a plate of banh cuon in a restaurant only to get like 3 rolls. Here, you can get a pound of banh cuon for $6-$8. Now this place is not for the faint of heart. You can easily mistaken it for an old storefront that's been abandoned. Pre-Covid, you could eat in the shop. When the pandemic hit, they started only taking orders through a window/counter and it's been like that since. When you peer through the window, it might make you question your decisions and make you want to turn right around. Stay, and you'll get some pretty good and cheap banh cuon! We got 3 pounds of banh cuon with meat. Was it the best banh cuon I've ever had? Probably not. Was it good for $8/lb? HELL YEAH. We'd come back. I've never been but my mom says their other location is cleaner. Although this place definitely didn't look that clean, it didn't bother me enough to go out of the way just to go to their other location. I was worried we would have trouble finding parking based on all the reviews but it wasn't too bad. We didn't have too much trouble on a Saturday afternoon. read more

recommendations: - pull up and put your hazards on, hard to find parking - remember to ask for plate/utensils/fish sauce, there are benches outside so you can eat on the spot - to-go orders and cash only sweet little grandma running this lil banh cuon joint. walk up to the window and put in your order. no frills, bang for your buck. for $7/lb, it could easily feed two ppl, v soft and fluffy. not as good as tay ho but would come back to support the locals read more

Ordered 1.5 lb of shrimp noodles and 1.5 lb of plain noodles. The shrimp noodles came with a dead bug and a strand of hair. The plain noodles came with a small dead fly. Needless to say, dinner was ruined! read more

Hole in the wall fresh banh cuon - best in the bay. They make it fresh and it always comes out so soft and warm. Such high quality , yummy banh cuon you can't get it like this anywhere else. Also affordable and very quick service you only wait a few minutes. read more

Can't believe I found this place. Another hidden gem. If you love bánh cuốn (rice rolls and veggies) this place is operated by the owner just like in Vietnam. They speaks Cantonese and Vietnamese which is also a plus. Hard to find. But pay attention to the sign. Kinda sketchy area but just get your food and go. It's just a window. read more

Lo Banh Cuon - Store front. - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Still the best banh cuon in San Jose! Yes the place looks ghetto but the banh cuon still taste amazing like it was in the 90s! I have bought the banh cuon here since late 90s when they first open and still the same lady that takes the order. She has gotten older now but she's still nice as ever and always give me next year calendar. read more

I grew up eating Banh Cuon, so I really wanted to love this place. The Banh Cuon (rice crepe) here are a bit different, I think they have mung beans on it which taste good but different. They sell the banh cuon by the pound which was a good deal. read more

I have just tried this place this morning. For my opinion, the quality of the food here is: 1. Fish sauce (nước mắm): is BAD as the other Vietnamese restaurants in San jose. It seems like they don't know how to make a STANDARD Vietnamese fish sauce in a correct way. They should learn how to do a GOOD fish sauce before opening a restaurant ! 2.Vietnamese pork roll (chả lụa): is very BAD, and probably it's the worst quality of Chả lụa that I have ever tasted in my life so far ! So, don't buy it if you don't wanna waste your money to buy Chả lụa here except you really wanna try how bad it is ! 3. Steamed rolled rice pancakes (bánh cuốn): is OUTSTANDING and VERY DELICIOUS for the quality ! This is probably the best Bánh cuốn that I have ever tasted in San Jose. I'll come back here only for Bánh cuốn. Hopefully they will try to improve the quality of their fish sauce and Vietnamese pork roll next time ! read more

Before you read further, there is something to consider. They have no parking. NO PARKING. Consider lucky if you find a spot on curbside. You can try to park at McDonald's and walk over. Ok, now with the review: They have the best banh khong and mi quang nghe. Most people get stuff here here. Warning: you have to order mi quang nghe one day ahead. I wish they have a website to tell people that. Or, now Yelpers know by looking at this review. There is absolutely no customer service. The place is one lady gang. She looked a bit disgruntled. Maybe she was having a bad day. You need to know what to want before ordering, or she will give you a look. Yes, THAT kinda look. The place has a little smell. No, not food smell. Who knows. I just wanted to come in and out. They have their own washer to wash the towels they use, I suppose. I just don't feel comfortable coming here every time. I'm knocking off 1 star just for that. I just don't understand why there isn't any competition. Maybe the profit margin is slim? read more

So I really didn't want to write this review, but there are too many reasons to. I tried this place out months ago and had bad service and the banh cuon tasted old and hard. I didn't write a review then and decided just to not order here again. My go to banh cuon tray is the one located on Senter road with the same name. But I keep forgetting which one I prefer! Other day I accidentally ordered here again. I ordered: 3 lb shrimp rolls ($5/lb) 3 lb pork rolls ($6/lb) Cash only I expected a tray for a 6 lb order.. The 2 sets were packaged separately. Pork in a hard container and the shrimp was saran wrapped (see pic)? Which was already a red flag for me. She handed to me without fish sauce which usually comes with it. She says they're $1.50 each. She shrimp tasted fine at home, but the pork rolls were all sour! Yup, they gave me the runs after.. read more

Lo Banh Cuon - 3 lb on shrimp banh cuon saran wrapped - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

My family has been coming to this Santa Clara location since I can remember. Whenever we visit SJ, we always stop by this place to get our favorite yummy banh cuon and fried pastry (forget the name). I am very particular when it comes to the texture of banh cuon. When you put it in your mouth, it melts and blends nicely with all the other toppings. Warning: you can't just have one plate because it is that good! I usually save my hungry tummy so that I can have seconds and thirds if I know that is the day we are visiting this store. Thank you for making such delicious and authentic Vietnamese banh cuon! A must visit place for those that have not been to. read more

The food was good, fresh, but not as listed prices. However, it is only one lady run the place. I think different lady I believe? The banh cuon is delicious, and the place also have name Thanh Tri now. Btw, to be clear on one thing, I don't know would the price change to tomorrow or not, but it is not the same as picture. Second, the place listed as import foods. The food is made right there, fresh, and is not import food. Third, the lady don't really speak English, so who did that to the website to her must be angry, or hostile towards the matter. Not sure is it a family affair or not, but keep that in mind, and understanding next time you see her weep. Listen to both side of the stories, and understand the decisions both side made. Leaving 5 stars for the foods. read more

Really authentic and fresh Vietnamese banh cuon (rice noodle sheets). It is so yummy. Highly recommended.

This place is a well-known secret among my family and extended family. I've been eating the rice noodles from this place since I was little. My mom says she's been purchasing from this place for over 10 years already. My mom will only buy bánh t and bánh cun from this place. The boss lady makes the rice noodles in house and my mom has said that there are times where she sells out. The outside looks very shabby, no lie, and the neighborhood it's located is pretty shady but the noodles are so good you would definitely forget about all that. We usually buy 3-4 lbs for a family of 5 which is about $10-$12. We usually have leftovers which we save for the next day. My mom usually gets bánh t and we buy ch la and veggies from a super market to accompany the báhn t. Overall, the place is a hidden gem and definitely worth the drive down to get some. Though a warning, it might be difficult to order if you don't have a translator. read more

Lo Banh Cuon - banh uot with cha lua, assorted veggies (cucumber, mint, lettuce), and nuoc mam that my mom made. - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

If it was not for the "open" sign, I would have thought the shop closed down. Parked on the street in front of the shop. I read most of the reviews before visiting this shop since I don't speak or read Vietnamese and knew the signs were all in Vietnamese. The shop lady has no problem conversing in English. Bought $13.75 worth of stuff but was charged $15 1lb Bánh Hành (rice roll w/ fried onions $3.75) 1lb Bánh Thįt (rice roll w/ minced pork and mushrooms topped w/ fried onions $5.50, 5 minute wait where she microwaved something in the back) 1 roll Cha lua (vietsausage $4.50) - packaging didn't smell great, but the sausage inside tasted fine, I pan fried mine to warm it up. Didn't buy a few ingredients there since prices were removed from the overhead board and didn't look too appetizing. - Nuoc Mam (fish sauce mixture) since it was a lot in a plastic cup and I wanted to mix my own w/ garlic and lime juice. For one serving: mix 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup fish sauce 1/2 cup water, one lime juice, one clove of garlic. - Fresh mint & basil since I had some growing in my garden. Next time I will probably just stick to the Bánh Hành. read more

One of my favorite places for banh cuon (rice noodle rolls)! Always fresh and the perfect texture. We always buy a few pounds and eat it over a day or two. The plain banh cuon pairs perfectly with my mom's nuoc mam and Duc Huong's cha lua. This place is super lowkey and easy to miss but once you try it, you'll always want to come back! I've never had an issue with street parking but it is limited. Don't forget cash only! It's worth the trouble though. Also, we always call first to make sure they are open and still have banh cuon available for the day. read more

In terms of Vietnamese food, banh cuon is often over looked when compared to other mainstream items like pho and banh mi! Banh Cuon are "rice rolls" have always been one of my favorite dishes. You can find some really GOOD and authentic banh cuon at Lo Banh Cuon on the Eastside/Downtown SJ boarder. Lo Banh Cuon is HOLE IN THE WALL to the max! It looks really grungy from the outside (and inside) but the food is so tasty. They sell several varieties but my favorite is the plain (with dried onions) or the shrimp ones. You buy it by the pound and it's packaged for you in saran wrap. They do sell nuoc mam (fish sauce), gio cha (steamed pork), and other "side dishes". I usually grab the basics here and then stop by the Vietnamese market to get fresh garnishes (cucumbers, mint leaves, bean sprouts, etc.) to complete my meal. It's been here FOREVER and in my opinion a very underrated (almost secret) spot. Definitely worth trying out if you're craving! Final Piece of Dirty Donovan Life Advice? Street parking, take out and cash only! read more

My family has been coming here for Banh Cuon, Banh Uot, Mi Quang, and all other rice paper delicacies for over a decade. I refuse to buy fresh Banh uot from anywhere else than here. And when I do, I get about 4-6 pounds worth. The shrimp one is my favorite. They're made fresh every day and wrapped up for you in a sheet of plastic wrap. Now that's OG right there. Beautiful texture, not at all clumpy, and delicious. They have somewhat of a rewards program written by hand to redeem points for calendars and such for loyal customers. I've always wondered where we get all our gigantic red calendars from. Truly a hidden Vietnamese hole-in-the-wall tucked away in a rundown grimy neighborhood. Go get yourself some cha lua, a wad of cash, and head on over. You won't be left disappointed. read more

The first thing to know about this place is that it's not a restaurant. You can't sit and eat there. The food is quite delicious, but best for you to order in large quantities for parties, or in small quantities to bring home and eat. This place is an unremarkable hole in the wall place. Upon entering, you see quite a sizable storefront; most of it blocked off and unused. Instead, on your right you see a counter where a man and a woman (I assume husband and wife) take your order. There are three types of banh cuon sold here: Pork, Shrimp, and Onion. The owner tells me that the onion is most popular. Food is sold by the pound, and a typically serving at a restaurant is probably 0.8 lbs or so, if that helps you figure out your portions for ordering. I ordered 4 lbs, one of each plus an extra pound of the pork. I was surprised to find that this banh cuon is quite good, far surpassing any I've ever had in a restaurant. There's very much of a homemade taste to it. Your food comes wrapped in plastic wrap so it doesn't look very appitizing. And then when you get home you have to cut it up on your own, and add other elements like greens and bean sprouts and fish sauce... but I definitely think this place is worth checking out, especially if you take your banh cuon very seriously. If you just have a quick craving you need to satisfy though, going straight to a restaurant where they can serve it to you would be best. Lo Banh Cuon is probably best for purchasing party trays. read more

5 stars just doesn't seem enough. I am SO EXCITED to write this review. I would give this place 10 stars if I could for the absolutely delicious, mouth-watering, I'm-salivating-as-I-type banh cuon!! For those who aren't familiar, banh cuon are steamed rice rolls. My family and I have been ordering from this place for over 10 years. Like other Yelpers have mentioned, don't come here expecting a dine-in experience. It's take-out style with a very minimalistic menu. You order by the pound. There are options for plain, shrimp, pork and onion. It always tastes fresh and continues to be better than any restaurant I've tried. You can also order the extra fixings such as cha lua (Vietnamese pork), nuoc mam (fish sauce) and veggies like bean sprouts and cucumber. My family of 6 will usually order 4-5 pounds and will STILL have leftovers for the next day! No exaggerations here; I could eat this stuff everyday. It would be my DREAAAAAM. Banh cuon is one of my favorite Vietnamese dishes and this remains the best I've had. read more

Lo Banh Cuon - DIY at home :-) Shrimp steamed rice rolls, yum! - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

I've been coming here for the rice rolls since I was a teenager and that was quite a long time ago. Every time I pass by this place, it reminds me of my childhood. My parents insist there are better places to get banh cuon - places where the rice rolls are not as greasy. But my sisters and I prefer the greasiness, though we probably should not if we don't want to get depressed when we hit the scales. My advice: get the banh cuon thanh tri (paper-thin wide rice noodles with fried shallots) with some pork meatloaf, bean sprouts, cucumbers and basil. Don't forget the fish sauce because that is one tricky dish to make. It's just a few simple ingredients but for the life of me, after three decades, I still have yet to master the right combination of it all. read more

My husband and I have been eyeing this place since we've moved nearby. We finally stopped by yesterday. This is a take-out only place, no dine-in. Hand written menu signs, I don't recall any English. We got an order of the plain banh cuon and one order of the meat one. Got a roll of cha a that fried bread. It was very delicious. The lady in front was super nice and answered all of our questions. It was pretty simple. Cash only. Nice little spot if you want to grab some banh cuon for home! read more

The banh cuon here is great!! For $14, I got enough banh cuon thanh tri for 4 people, gio, nuoc mam, and cucumber. I called ahead with my order and it was a quick in and out process. The first time I came here, the woman behind the counter sold me plain banh cuon (for four people) for $6! I wasn't able to get the thanh tri (fried shallots) because it was late and they had sold out. She told me that if I ever wanted to order and get it, to call in and she would get it ready for me. Their menu board also includes other items like mi quang, and hu tieu for amazing prices! read more

Lo Banh Cuon - Menu board - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Tons of friends always ask me where to get the best VietNamese food is in the Bay Area --- and I always end up telling them to not waste their time. San "MAN" Jose is the closest they'd get to finding anything really authentic and decent. Even so? I'd rather wait until my treks back to OC to gorge on my people's food. YUM! Every other person this month has been asking me where the best PHO is in town... and I could not, for the life of me, tell them where to go. That's because I refuse to have Pho at a Korean establishment here in Oakland. Really. And most of the Chinese-VietNamese shop owners in SF just cheat openly when it comes to brewing their broth. I have tastebuds, people! For some reason, all this talk of PHO was making me CRAVE my FAVORITE VietNamese dish --- Banh Cuon: paper-thin ravioli like noodles with stir-fried ground pork, onions, pepper and fungus wrapped inside. Since I was in an exploratory mood --- I decided to let my GyPSy guide me to where I should grub first. The minute I saw Lo Banh Cuon --- I just KNEW I had to try it out. Seriously. If you're going to name your place after something --- that something better be the BEST in town. On the way I called ahead. Apparently, this was not a sit down kind of establishment. You call in to order how many pounds of the noodles you'll be needing and these folks will have it ready as you arrive. I was fine with that, until.... I was told by the owner that she won't make the Banh Cuon nhan thit (with meat) on Sundays. They'll only serve it plain, with fried shallots OR with dried shrimp. I absolutely DETEST dried shrimp. I wheedled. I begged. I bartered to no avail. SO --- my suggestion --- order the one with the deep-fried shallots. The noodles here (both the banh cuon, and the hu tieu --- thick rice noodles --- for soups) are really REALLY fresh. So it's an absolute bargain at $2 - $2.50/pound. Their meats are not pricey at all. You know, the gio (steamed processed pork) to go along with your banh cuon. I would definitely just do the one stop shopping expedition for my take-out meal here. You'll want to buy around 3 lbs of the banh cuon to serve approximately 4. Y'know? Not bad. NOT bad at all. This is coming from someone who is SUCH the food snob when it comes to eating VietNamese food. Especially since I grew up next to Little Saigon in Orange County, CA. Seriously --- even after visiting the motherland, some of the food doesn't even come CLOSE to what's prepped & provided in OC. read more

Do not come here if you're expecting restaurant service. Do come here if you're in search of some bomb banh cuon! Gosh this place is better than anything I've ever had!! My first impression the place is very ghetto and VERY dirty!! I was really worried at first about eating here. I got there and she took the stuff out of the freezer and asked me to wait awhile. I try not to judge a book by its cover so I waited. I got 3 pounds banh cuon thit 1 Cha lua Nuoc mam And some veggies total came out to be exactly $20 Came home and the $20 made about 5 big plate for my roommate and I!! Best banh cuon we've ever had! We will definitely be back for more! I'm drooling thinking about it!! read more

The banh cuon here is omg good!!! Wow! Used yelp to find this place so I was expecting the bare nearly empty dark store in a ghetto-ish looking area. I parked on the street next to mcdonalds. I ordered in Vietnamese. One lb of plain (banh cuon khong) and a lb with the crunchy onions (banh cuon hang). I had already bought a gio lua from Duc Huong's when I dropped my daddy off at the Orange County bus. I didn't realize they don't include the fish sauce. Maybe you have to ask for it? But no worries.... I just used my basic one stored in the fridge (1 part fish sauce, 1 part sugar, 1 part rice vinegar, and 2 parts water, heat just to dissolve and store in glass jar in fridge... Put some in bowl with some garlic chili paste when serving... Can dilute with more water if needed... I usually use 1/2 cup increments to fill an old glass jar). So back to the banh cuon. It is soft with just the right chew and reminds me of eating banh cuon as a child when my mom would bring a tray home from ?store in Westminster where they make it fresh. I like putting the fixings on myself: fried tofu, gio lua and bean sprouts. I'm not really a fan of the stuffed banh cuon at restaurants because fresh sheets of banh cuon always tastes better and you can adjust the toppings. Too bad this place is 36min away without traffic. Banh cuon alone would gets 5 stars... had to take one down for location and service (shouldn't fish sauce be automatically included?!?!), but 4 stars because it was still within my expectations for the place. read more

I really do enjoy this little hole in the wall a lot! Definitely call and place your order ahead of time if you don't want to wait. And it's cash only. The store itself doesn't look too tidy, but the food is delicious! Highly recommend the premade box if you just want something quick. It comes with the banh uoc, sauce, veggies and cha. read more

Have craving for fresh yummy Banh Cuon (Vietnamese Rice Rolls) to take home? Look no further my fellow Yelpers! They sell them by the pound and the price is hard to beat.

I was thinking of what to eat for a quick dinner for 2, and hmm I havent had banh cuon in a while and found this place on yelp. This place is a hole in the wall, but who cares, i LOVE it. I bought one pound of the banh cuon with onions and one fried cha lua (pork meatloaf) for exactly $5.Went home and added some cucumbers and lettuce and drowned everything in fish sauce. SOO GOOD! Not only did we have it for dinner, but there was enough to pack for lunch for work the next day. What a deal! So glad I found this place, it will be my go to spot for FRESH banh cuon. I can see myself coming here time and time again. Can't wait. read more

Good place to buy banh cuon, i have been come back here more than 20 years. Keep like this

Very good service and follow through. I ordered 3 lbs of bank cuon and they delivered! They called me to make sure that I did not forget :) They were obsessed over my intention to bring it to out of state and told me NOT to order items with meat. Kind of like nazi soup but here, nazi bank cuon. the bank cuon was delicious. My parents and siblings appreciated their obsession for quality and details to ensure that the banh cuon stayed fresh as i deliver it from CA to the midwest state. read more

This place makes a variety of Banh Cuon. From meat filling to veggies. I usually call In to order 20-30$ worth of banh cuon. But if you're just looking to order a meal which has pork roll and veggies it's there. Food is good and freshly made. It's not a restaurant. read more

This place has the best Bánh cuon. It's freshly made and you can pick over four types of Banh Cuon. My mom has been coming here for years and would order a few pounds for the family. They also sell garnishes for the Banh Cuon. read more

I love the banh cuon tom here! They make banh cuon fresh daily so this is the spot I like to buy my banh cuon from! Parking sucks as there is only street parking. I park in the McDonald's space and I walk over to Lo Banh Cuon. I would not suggest buying their cha lua. I didn't really like it from here. read more

I love this place! One of my favorite Vietnamese dishes is banh cuon and this place is the BEST. My family and I have been picking up banh cuon from this place for over 20 years. Its one of my favorite comfort foods. read more

There's a lot of variety on the menu besides banh coun. Its fast and in my opinion good customer service. They gave us a free calendar. On the downside the food isn't really that great. Mediocre food in my opinion.. read more

This place has been family tradition since I was growing up. The place serves the most fresh banh cuon ever! She offers plain, shrimp and onion banh cuon. My favorite is the onion one. You order by the lbs. 4lbs can easily fill up my family of 4 for an entire day. The range for each lb is between 2.50-3.50. She also sells additional items to compliment the banh cuon (cha lua, fried shrimp, nouc mam) The service is so quick. Usually I call in ahead of time, but if i dont get the chance to, it takes her less than a couple of minutes to have my order ready when I come to order in person. This is absolutely my favorite banh cuon place! read more
