The spring roll and peanut sauce were both tasty, but it wasn't wrapped in plastic, so rice got all over it. A small thing, but easy to fix for takeout orders. The fried rice was good too, pretty standard. The menu lists the Kung Pao as spicy, but I'd call it more of a hint of spice. Still delicious, and it normally comes with peanuts. I asked for none and they got it right, which I really appreciated. For $11.99, it's a good lunch deal. I'd order again.

There is a good variety of Chinese, Hmong, and Vietnamese options (mainly pho). When I picked up my order the location appeared very clean and chill. I wouldn't mind eating in the restaurant. They also have kiosks where you order rather than ordering with a person, but someone was close to greet me and hand me my to go order. Onto the food, my friend ordered the sesame chicken with white rice. The portion is pretty good sized, unfortunately I don't have a photo. The sauce is very dark, and didnt really give sesame chicken as you'd probably expect from other sesame chickens in the twin cities. However it was a nice umami and cooked well. I enjoyed them, but it was not to my friend's taste nor what she expected. I ordered the braised pork belly special with purple sticky rice and Hmong sausage. The pork belly came with one egg, you can add more for an additional cost. The sausage comes with a spicy sauce, which you can also get extra for additional cost. The pork belly was soooo fatty. Like barely any fat rendering seems to have occurred and for being braised and fatty the meat was surprisingly dry/tough. The flavor was very sweet. It would have been nice for a bit more salty/umami to shine through. The egg was yummy, sauce penetrated the egg white pretty completely. Not sure how those are supposed to be in this particular dish, but it was a hard boil, not jammy or anything like that. The Hmong sausage was my favorite, very nice texture and flavor. The sauce is super spicy and pairs well with everything. The purple sticky rice was also perfect. Last, I added on a mango cheese bun which was fresh, lightly sweet, and delicious however it was not made from Vangz. It was pre packed from a St Paul bakery, so still local at least but I was expecting from their dessert options that those were made in house. Overall, the meal was decent. I purposely went with a special dish rather than a more popular choice because I like to show different options in my reviews. I hate when I can't find the whole menu in actual customer photos. If people are only ordering 5 items from you, that says something about your menu and overall food quality. I'm still curious to see what else Vangz has to offer before I write them off. I was torn between choosing the pork belly stir fry or crispy pork belly. I'd also love to try their pho. I will be back to try more and update my review :)

I can't say enough good things about the food here. My go to meal here is the string hoppers, the string hoppers are like a thin patty made of thin white rice noodles (it comes with like 12). I love that this meal comes with a curry sauce, Kiri Hodi (a sweet thinner sauce) and Coconut Sambol. I layer on as much of each that I want on my string hoppers and the combo is DELICIOUS! My daughter has tried a few different dishes here and loves them all. She's done the Ala Hodi (potato curry), the chicken curry and the Dhal Curry. She normally gets roti on the side as well. We normally get a side of vegetable rolls to start with. Then if we are looking for a little extra we get a Mango Lassi to start or finish the meal with. It is like a sweet mango smoothie, but yogurt based and thinner texture.

The satay sauce was everything I would expect. The chicken was cooked perfectly. The crispy calamari was crispy as it should be. They were filled with an easily bitten and quite yummy narrowly cut seafood. Their sauce was a sweet chili that smelled smoking hot but tasted perfectly balanced.

The latter is one of my all time favorites from any restaurant, especially with some extra fried egg on it. I'd say the most important thing here is to look beyond the Korean fried chicken. They have so many other great and new (to me at least) items. I mentioned a few favorites. Another interesting one is the Mopo Corndog, mozzarella cheese covered with a breading that includes crunchy potato cubes. It sounds strange but it was really good. It looks like they've expanded their menu since I was there. But the fried rice and bao are just my go to order. I've only had pickup and I've never had to wait more than a couple minutes and the employees are kind. Food is hot and travels well. The only downside is it's a bit expensive, but it's worth it.

It was served with a sheet that identifies the different flavors so you know what you're trying. The kimchi pork potsticker was my favorite!

The chili oil was super flavorful and packed a lot of heat, and the fried garlic pieces were so good. -- With most cocktails being $12, they're quite reasonable and they have a bunch of fun asian flavors. The Yuzu Ginger Collins was refreshing.
