    Bun B3. Chả Cá Thăng Long
    Amy N.

    This is the first one star review I've ever written. My mom and I checked this place out for the first time during lunchtime. It seems like a place for large events and parties, and much of the menu appears to be food for drinking. Service was a little unfriendly, even by Vietnamese mom-and-pop shop standards. The establishment also smelled of cigarette smoke (although I didn't see anyone smoking, so maybe it was cigarette smoke that came in from outside the establishment). The food took a really long time to be served--we waited 35 minutes, and I could see several other tables also waited for a while. One table of two that came in at the same time as we did, waited 50 minutes for their hot pot (lẩu). The staff did apologize for the long wait. We ordered one Pho Ga Dac Biet (bone-in chicken pho) and one Bun Cha Ca Thanh Long. The pho broth tasted like the complimentary soup (canh) that comes with com tam (broken rice) at com tam restaurants. The portion of chicken was quite small and dry. The nuoc mam ngot (sweet fish sauce) that came with the bun cha ca Thanh long was very watered down. The mắm nêm that came with the bun cha ca did not taste like mắm nêm or mắm ruốc; as my mom said, we had no idea what it was. The fish was fishy and was not seasoned in the way that we expected bún chả cá to be seasoned. Pros are that the decorations are very cute. Restaurant is spacious and clean. Restroom is also pretty clean. Parking is free.

    Came here after shopping around at the Asian Garden Center with some family. Absolutely loved how beautiful the place was decorated for the new years, all the nights, decor, and bright lanterns. It was stunning! We immediately got seated down for a party of 7 and the waiter was extremely welcoming and nice! I decided to get the vietnamese coffee, and it was amazing, however a lot of ice, so i'd recommend asking for light ice next time. I also got the Pho and it was flavorful and very fulfilling. My dad got the seafood fried rice and it was incredible flavorful, so many seasoning, and lots of seafood in it! It came out steaming hot! Parking is free in the complex, and i'd highly recommend stopping by. Service was fairly fast, bathroom was clean, and food was delicious!

    Loved their Pho kho here! Highly recommend trying this. Most places don't have this and they made it really good. I got their bun dau mam. I've had better elsewhere but still was good. Their cafe sua da was too chocolatey I didn't love it. But would come back for their PHO KHO

    Band starts at 7 pm . Larger group highly recommended to make reservations. Outside seatings available. I called the restaurant Thursday to make reservations for Friday for 3 people at 7:30 pm . The gentleman on the phone says I don't need reservations for 3 people. Just come in should be room. So we walked in looking cute and my heart sank , scoring the room I noticed all the tables were occupied. I proceeded to ask one of the female employee are tables available she says "you should make reservations. ". I explained to her the night before I called to make reservation, your male employee says I don't need to . .. So we decided to wait 30 minutes and left to another joint .

    I've visited numerous times and have tried every dish on the menu. Everything is exceptional, which is why I keep coming back despite living an hour away. The service is outstanding--truly the best in the Little Saigon area.

    So then, not gender neutral?

    This place is a restaurant that doubles as an event space. They have a stage and a sound system for announcements and karaoke. The only problem is that it's tough to have more than one function here at any time because the stage is shared. That being said the owners and staff and really nice and attentive, and the food is decent. I think they have serve beer and wine for alcohol.

    They have the juiciest grilled fish. Unlike other places that fried their fishes, this place actually grill their fish so crispy and juicy. Would definitely come back for the cá nướng. Good service and calm ambiance.

    We came here because it was one of the few places that opens late in the area, that can also accommodate a large group. Food and prices were decent, but some of the staff aren't really friendly. I did not think there was anything that was particularly tasty or worth coming back for.

    I couldn't have found a better place for my perfect rainy days!! The portions are incredible!! I ordered the Pho Dac Biet large and it is delicious!! The meats are all cooked to perfection and allow enough texture to blend in beautifully with the fresh sprouts and other ingredients for a mixture of YUM!! The spring rolls are so beautifully I almost felt guilty, eating them, but they were so delicious that I had to refresh peanut sauce will make you eat all of them. No Vietnamese meal could be complete without ordering Vietnamese iced coffee know as Cafe Sua Da. If you are a carb sensitive person, then you'll understand the carbohydrates can cause a person to become slightly drowsy after eating a meal so the Vietnamese evangineer the perfect drink to enjoy after a meal and let me tell you... It does the truth the service was incredibly friendly. I definitely will be coming back as I love Vietnamese food, they gave me my rainy day dream lunch!

    They even decorated for my birthday with beautiful banners

    Went to this place for meetings with friends and found out the service and the foods were excellent. So I did have my birthday party here last few weeks for 30 people on a Thursday and they have live music and all of my guests loved the foods, not only that the bill came out unbelievable decent. I highly recommend this place. The owners and the staff were so quick, attentive and very friendly. Please keep up the great work

    Our friends get together to have dinner at this restaurant. The food was so tasty. I really like the way they decorate their food dishes. The service was amazing and very professional. They also have a live band and karaoke for customers to sing for entertainment. I would highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.

    0 star for the Weather 2star for foods I have never feels so uncomfortable in the restaurant in my life She didn't want to serve me at all I mean at all when the food came out, I didn't even feel like eating. I only sat down and try the food and left. That's how bad it was. The restaurant was full of drunk people really loud really loud well I will not come here again. That was my mistake.

    Beautiful decor inside and out! The food was really good! It was flavorful and it came out fairly fast! The menu is so easy to read (thank you!!) It was both in English and Vietnamese. Very friendly staff!! Check the menu as there's two sides of the paper and the prices may differ from each other :) other than that, my family would def go again! The wings have the best tasting onions!!!!

They…read morecaught my eye a while ago and I saw they had the infamous Waterfall Chicken for only $10.99, a steal of a deal especially with tomato price & an egg. The chicken was crispy and the dipping sauce gave it that extra yummy goodness. The dish also came with a side of broth that had chicken bits in it, was nice to help digest your dish. I also loved that they gave you pickled veggies & fresh veggies. We also ordered the Loi's Fusion Saltado, upgraded the rice to garlic egg fried rice. The beef was soft and tender, the fries were nice and crispy and the fried rice was fresh. You 100% need to get the Thai Tea. A lot of place add too much cream/half and half diluting the tea flavor, they do not skimp on the actual tea in their drink. The color speaks for itself on the dark orange hue!

I'm a bit late getting around to writing this, and unfortunately, they are already closed, but I still felt like I had to share my experience. I'm not completely surprised that they closed, especially after trying their bò né. I've had this dish many times at different places around Orange County, and unfortunately, this was probably the weakest version I've come across. The first thing that stood out was the presentation. As you can see in the picture, there was this purple-colored sauce on the meat itself, which honestly did not look very appetizing. To make things worse, the sauce was cold and did not heat in time with the skillet, which really took away from the experience. The flavor itself wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't anything memorable. It was just okay, and when you factor in the cold food and the presentation, it made the whole dish disappointing. With so many places around Orange County serving bò né at a much higher level, I would probably recommend spending your money elsewhere. If you were wondering whether you missed out on some hidden gem, don't worry, you didn't. This one felt more like a piece of coal than a diamond. That being said, every restaurant has its journey, and with more time, maybe they could have found their footing. Hopefully, they can take this experience as a lesson, refine their recipes, and bring something better in their next venture. I am rooting for you Loi!

The most recent time, we came at 8:30pm on weekday and there were 29 parties ahead of us (LOL), soooo plan ahead and join the waitlist through yelp. We probably waited about 30 minutes. Here are a few things I can think of to recommend: --Deep fried smelt fish ( i love smelt ) --Stir fried glass noodles with escargot and crab ( make sure to dip in the maggi sauce they give ) --House special mango salad ( squid & escargot ) --Razor clams ( sometimes sold out :( ) --Deep fried Quail ( this is one of the best ) --Stir fried water spinach with garlic ( for bowel movement assistance ) --Grilled garlic butter oysters ( the cheese one overpowers the oyster ) --Scallops with fish eggs --Coconut Swirly Escargot with Basil Leaves ( this is not my fave, but people i go with, love it ) Service is good.

    We had initially passed Oc & Lau Restaurant a few months back when we were getting dessert nearby…read more We were definitely intrigued by the amount of people waiting outside and could see through the window all the food on the table. After a quick look at the menu, we knew this was someplace we would enjoy. We were in town on a Sunday evening and knew we wanted to check it out. With the two locations, we got on the Yelp waitlist knowing they were both nearby each other. (Our mistake was not getting on the waitlist earlier, so we did have a wait a good while.). We had perused other Yelper reviews and had a list in mind of what we wanted. Definitely take the time to look at the menu beforehand because it is long and extensive. Right off the bat, out of razor clams! Bummer. Nonetheless, we still got a bunch of things. * Grilled King Scallop with Fish Eggs $27 - Nicely cooked. 4/5 * Grilled Escargot with Garlic Butter & Peppercorn $16 - Yum! 5/5 * Mango Squid Salad $14 - This was noted in so many reviews, and it did not disappoint. We ended up getting a second order! 5/5 * Crabs & Shrimp Fried Rice $17 - I was not a fan. It was just fried rice, nothing special. It lacked seasoning and definitely needed the accompanying sauce. 3/5 * Deep Fried Smelt Fish $15 - Another winner! I haven't seen smelt fish this large before and it was so good, we got a second order. 5/5 * Coconut Swirly Escargot with Basil Leaves $14 - This came in a pot with such a delicious sauce. I would have loved some noodles or something to eat all that sauce up with. 5/5 * Spicy Seasoned Grilled Shrimp $17 - This shrimp were a good size and did not disappoint. 4/5 * Escargot with Tamarind $15 - Our least favorite of the escargots we ordered. It wasn't bad, just okay. 3/5 * Complimentary dessert - I have no idea what was in this che beyond coconut cream and rice, but it was pretty good. I probably would have ordered it. Service was okay. Because they are so busy, they definitely do try to rush you out. We were still eating and someone came and brought dessert to our table. Mind you, we were literally still putting food in our mouths and I looked at the waitress perplexed. We told her we were still eating and going to order more, so she took the dessert away. There's definitely this anxiousness about the staff to turn over the tables, which I get with the long lines. But I think they could have addressed it a bit differently by simply asking instead of assuming.

Be prepared: this place is incredibly popular, especially during peak hours. Parking can definitely be challenging because of how busy it is. The last time I visited on a Monday, the lot was completely full, and I ended up parking on the street. The restaurant is also primarily cash only, so come prepared. They open early, making it a perfect breakfast spot for an early bowl of pho. The pho broth is exactly what I want when I'm craving comfort food--clean, flavorful, and incredibly soothing. However, the star of the meal for me was the chả giò. Wow. Although they arrived after our pho, they came out at the perfect temperature. I was hesitant to take a bite right away because freshly fried food usually burns my mouth, but these were just right. Crispy, airy, savory, and absolutely delicious. Paired with their fish sauce, it was perfection. I enjoyed the egg rolls so much that next time I'm definitely ordering the egg roll vermicelli bowl. Service was friendly and prompt despite how busy it was, and it's clear the staff works hard to keep things moving. One thing I love is seeing all of the awards and accolades displayed on the walls. Phở 79 received the prestigious James Beard America's Classics Award, and it's easy to understand why after one meal here. This restaurant is truly an Orange County icon. The restaurant will soon be moving to a new location, as signs throughout the restaurant announce the upcoming move. While I'll miss the original spot, I'm excited for the new space--hopefully with more parking! Some places are worth the wait, and Phở 79 is absolutely one of them.

My Pho with Rare Steak had a flavorful broth, and the meat itself was tender. However, I felt there was a little too much ginger in the broth. The ginger flavor was quite strong and overpowered the traditional pho aroma and taste. It wasn't bad by any means, but I think the broth would be even better if the ginger were toned down. With a more balanced amount of ginger, it could be excellent. Also, the broth a bit sweet. One thing I really appreciated was that they served culantro with pho. That's definitely a plus for me, as not many pho restaurants offer culantro, and I think it adds a great touch to the dish. The staff was also friendly and attentive throughout our visit. Overall, I enjoyed the pho and would definitely be interested in trying their other dishes next time.
