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 :)

The space itself isn't huge, there's probably 6 booths and a few tables. It was pretty clear after we sat down, that they are SWAMPED with take-out and delivery service orders.

I might not bring a date or my in-laws here to impress them. Our server was DARLING the whole time. She was running in a bunch of different directions all night, but was super friendly and kept everything moving smoothly. Major kudos to her! Food was great value and very tasty! We started out with the egg rolls and cream cheese wontons. Perfect flavor, large portion, and served piping hot! I had the Mongolian Beef which was a sizeable serving with tender beef, tons of onions, and a lovely sauce. My partner had the shrimp pad Thai and also really enjoyed it!

I keep returning to Haven Asian eatery, because I absolutely love their Vietnamese Egg Rolls and…read moretheir Spring Rolls with shrimp. Again, I wish they had a hot and sour soup. That said, this time I tried the Red Curry with chicken. I don't think I selected a spice level, but I must've gotten medium, because the spice level was absolutely perfect. The chicken was tender and not at all dry and the curry was rich and savory. Adding a couple of spoonsful of the included sticky rice made the perfect meal. Of course, I got my favorite Vietnamese egg rolls (perfectly delicious) and Spring Rolls with shrimp. For some reason the shrimp were kind of hard; they looked and tasted fresh but the texture was off. The Sweet Mango Sticky Rice was something I have looked at so many times in different restaurants but never tried and so I decided to try it here. It's slightly sweet and has lots of mangoes, but for some reason, every few bites had an odd fishy taste. It was soupier than I expected so now I need to order it elsewhere to compare.

My spouse and I first came here in January after seeing the establishment's struggles when…read moreOperation Metro Surge was happening and we intended to patronize this business to support their endeavors, and since they had the seasonal Peking Duck dumplings available, we had to give it a try and we totally enjoyed it. All the dumplings had nice side dishes with them, including rainbow slaw, pickles, and whichever sauce we chose, and my personal favorite was the chili oil or the garlic chili aioli, which was surprising because I normally ate dumplings with vinegar back home in China. The golden cloud bites were very authentically made as they reminded me exactly of how "golden buns" (金馒头) were made back home, and the condensed milk was exactly right in terms of what to dip them in. Conversely, I didn't enjoy the bowls as much. The veggie bowl had diverse ingredients but I think having more eggplant would help more because the caramelization can enhance the overall flavor. As for the sambal chicken rice bowl, I personally would prefer sambal rather than the sambal ranch that was included because the two ingredients had different flavors, and sambal itself, rather than sambal ranch, would have given the bowl more vibrantly pungent spice and umami flavors. Since this place has multiple locations, I would recommend one to ensure that their desired dishes are served at the particular locations they are trying to visit. I am just happy about the fact that there is a place like this establishment that serves tasty dumplings, and I would love to return and try some of their sandwiches and burritos.

Had the Fresh Spring Rolls With Noodle and Shrimp, Papaya Salad Thai Style, Hot Pot Seafood and Thai Fried Rice. There was only 3 of us and we over ordered, as usual. Fresh Spring Rolls With Noodle and Shrimp - had mango & avocado inside, would be so much better if the mango and avocados were cold. Came with two sauces nuoc nam and Peanut sauce. Papaya Salad Thai Style - made the mistake of ordering this medium spicy. I overestimated how much spice I can take. But it was good, had great flavor and had nice crispy pork cracklings on top. Hot Pot Seafood - the broth for this was so good would be really perfect on a really cold day. Thai Fried Rice - this was just OK tasted like regular fried rice. Would definitely go back if we're in the area again.

While we made a reservation a couple of weeks in advance for an earlier 5PM dinner, it wasn't busy at all at that time. We easily could have gone without. Hai Hai is a really large restaurant, far larger than I anticipated, with plenty of spaces on the back patio, a large bar area, and a lot of seating indoors up in front. We were led to one of the indoor tables which we appreciated immensely given the heat outside. We found the service to be prompt and efficient. The food came out fast, within 10 minutes or so. They must be really efficient in the kitchen. Hat Yai Chicken ($23) - I've eaten this dish several times in the past, but always bone in. This one, on the other hand, includes two pieces of fried boneless thigh, mostly cleaned and stripped of skin. I say mostly because one thigh still had quite a large chunk of cartilage attached. Unfortunately removing the skin also removes a protective layer to help the chicken from being drying out. And overfried this is, making the meat somewhat tough and stringy, although there's just a bit of intermuscular chicken fat to moisten things up a tad. The hard fry does allow the breading to develop into a robust crunch, however, and with the fried garlic, fried curry leaves, and sliced Thai chili on top, makes a flavorful and texturally interesting bite. The chicken is served on top of a piece of roti. I assume it's homemade since it's on the denser side of things and is floury, without that glass shatteringly crisp skin of some other roti varieties I've had. There's a dip of red curry on the side, which is aromatic and flavorful, sweet with coconut milk to start, then the aroma of curry leaf and spices, and finally a small bit of heat to warm the mouth. It's strangely served lukewarm instead of hot. Finally, there's a small pile of home made pickles. Nice to eat, but the rest of the dish isn't fatty, oily, or heavy enough to really require them. Then again, it's nice to have as a palette refresher between bites of the flavorful chicken and curry. (4/5) Vietnamese Crepe, Pork & Shrimp ($23) - I've only eaten banh xeo once before and I found it to be a greasy, soggy mess. This one is anything but. The pancake stays completely crisp, almost shatteringly so, even on the bottom surface facing the plate. Of course it's still a messy dish to eat, due to having to cut it up to eat in lettuce wraps, mixed with herbs. Four large lettuce leaves are included, along with cilantro and some (holy?) basil. The banh xeo s not easy to cut with the provided butter knife, so I asked for the steak knife - still not easy to cut! Inside the crisp crepe are several pieces of shrimp, tender and not overcooked at all, a bunch of almost melt-in-the-mouth cubes of pork belly, then a bed of wilted onions, green onions, and bean sprouts. I love how the bean sprouts are cooked here instead of being raw like in so many Vietnamese dishes. This dish is served with two sauces. One a sweetened fish sauce Nước Chấm. For some reason I taste some fruity elements but I could be imagining things. The other is a barely spicy sriracha-ish sauce. (5/5) Visiting Hai Hai was definitely a good choice for dinner. I can see why the head chef has a James Beard award to her name! Bathrooms - Four all gender stalls, two wash stations right outside. It's great since most foods are messy finger foods that needs a convenient wash area. Food: [4.5/5] Service: [+] Other: [ ] Final Rating: 5/5

It was very crispy, thick, moist and flavorful. It was on a pretzel bun, which normally I am a fan of but I think it takes away from the flavor of the fried chicken and the gochujang sauce we got and doesn't quite make sense. To me, it seems more haha a burger bun than fried chicken. The char Siu was good, but very small pieces of meat for the big price tag. The egg rolls were delicious and we liked the way they were cut along with the dipping sauce. Overall, we would come back but I think we would focus on just getting fried chicken and apps and avoid the rest.
