cant believe i just barely found out about this spot. huge outdoor seating area, and inside has two different areas to sit. the banh canh cua is so good here, their eggrolls are also very good. tasty fruit drinks - lots of vietnamese dishes that you dont really see in restaurants. service was very nice & friendly. super attentive as well. read more

Stumbled upon this place when we were looking for dinner that was open a little later on Saturday night. This was my first time having bun mam, which has a fermented fish soup base. It was sooo deeply umami and a little sweet, I could not stop drinking it! Definitely had to pack my leftovers home so I could have another meal with this soup base. Veggies/herbs served on the side are also really unique, not just the typical mint, basil, and bean sprouts! The toppings are also really generous, especially liked the fish cake stuffed in a pepper. The staff here are super sweet, and recommended we come back to try the banh cahn next time! Note that they take Zelle if you don't have cash on hand. read more

I am so glad we decided to give this place a try. Few years ago, we walked in and walked right back out. We definitely did not like the vibe and very thrown off by lack of customer service. However, after seeing a local Vietnamese lady try this place, we had to come. I am a home cook comfort type of person. Many places cater to the taste of American people, so it lacks the true local flavors. Came here on a Monday evening with hubby and we were not disappointed at all. Everything we ordered, was absolutely tasteful and the customer service was actually on point! This place will not be added to our usual rotations lol. read more

If you want that outdoorsy vibe with lots of plants and a cool fan blowing in your face (very reminiscent of Saigon), this is the perfect spot for you. They have a fairly diverse menu and service is quick here. We got their bun mam, sizzling beef plate, and cha. Everything was delicious, but I highly recommend their bun mam--this isn't something that you normally find on Vietnamese menus in the US. My dad and uncle LOVED this spot as it brought them back to Vietnam. Solid food, great vibe for chilling outside and eating, and I will definitely be coming back. read more

first time trying this place from a video on FB I like both of the choices Bun Rieu: Broth is flavorful and comes with a lot of toppings, except for the snail that it was way too chewy, I could not eat all of them, may be less boiling for the snail will be wonderful Hu Tieu Muc: Squid is fresh and well-cooked, broth is on the light side Service is friendly and Attentive there are many seats including patio, decoration actual giving you of a feeling from the old days Saigon somehow Over all, everything is good except for small issues that can be easily improved I will be back to try other dishes read more

I'm so upset that I haven't been this restaurant sooner. I felt like walking into a restaurant in Vietnam not in Orange County. There's indoors and outdoor seating. Their menu has both in English and Vietnamese which is a plus. Their staff explains the menu and actually comes by to check up, which is pretty cool. (If you know, you know) I got their squid rice noodle soup, crab and shrimp eggrolls, and my friend got the fermented vermicelli noodles. All 3 were super delicious, squid was still tender and not tough. As I'm writing this review I'm still salivating and planning my next trip back to try other dishes. read more

I took my family here to try their bun mam (vermicelli with fermented fish paste soup), and we were pleasantly surprised. We got the bun mam, nem cua be (crab egg rolls), and banh tam bi (thick vermicelli noodles with shredded pork). The bun mam was just the way I like it - just the right amount of fermented fish flavor and seasoned just right for the mien tay Vietnamese (southwestern Vietnamese). The nem cua be was alright in my opinion, crispy egg rolls shell with meaty filling and not enough crab flavor, nothing too special. The banh tam bi (forgot the picture) was our least favorite. The mixed fish sauce that it was served with was too salty for us and the noodle was a bit too hard, in a not good way. Overall, I would come back for the bun mam and skip everything else. The outdoor setting reminds me of the restaurants in Vietnam. It's that vibe of someone serving food in their front yard. The biggest downside is the parking situation. They're located on the side plaza next to Phuoc Loc Tho (Asian Garden Mall) with barely any parking space. We had to park at Phuoc Loc Tho and walked over. read more

First time here for a weekday lunch. I got Bún Nắm. The fish flavor was good. Not too sweet as other restaurant. Can definitely taste the fish sauce. They have fish cake stuffed in jalapeño instead of eggplants, which can be a little spicy. Not bad at all and I would come back. However, I still this can't top Bún Nắm at Ốc &lẩu. Plenty of seatings inside. Right next to Asian garden mall on moran street. Might not have parking as guests from Asian garden mall often park there. Would come back to try other items. read more

Saw a Instagram post and gave this place a try. All in all was a fun time. We ordered the crab eggrolls, crab noodle soup, crab/coconut soup, and beef soup My favorite thing were the crab eggs rolls, mostly due to all the fresh veggies you can stuff them in. I wasn't really a fan of the soups. .. they all had a muddled flavor (kinda like how the soups at boiling point are). As far as crab.. I couldn't really taste a crab taste in anything. I Am not sure what kinda crab this ground up stuff was,, but it didn't have a crab flavor. I'm sure it's just lost on me since I'm. Inexpert in Vietnamese food. Our favorite soup flavorwise was the beef soup. There isn't much description on the menu of the ingredients. .. so expect some mystery meats in each soup. I would love suggestions for other places to try in the area. read more

I liked the beef in banh hoi and bun mam tra vinh ! Although i wasnt sure how to wrap or eat them all together, but it's good! Bun dau mam tom i personally didn't eat anything besides tofu and mam tom (no pork for me) so i can't be the judge. But my brother finished it so i think it's worth mentioning. For the atmosphere we sat indoor as people outside were smoking. Feel very homey and reminds me of Vietnam :) Staff were friendly and quick to clear out table when you done eating. read more

Everyone is very welcoming. Best service. Bun mam is perfectly seasoned. Not salty and not strong smelling of mam. Nice size portion. Definitely a place to visit monthly to get the 'bun mam' fix. No pace is as good as this place. read more

The bún mắm is very authentic and they even served with a rare bitter veggie on the side mixed in the veggies plate, don't add it if you are not a fan, pretty bitter for my taste, but I could get use to it. The smell, taste and outside dining patio remind me so much of Vietnam. For those of you who been there and been to Vietnam knows what I am talking about. I'll be back to try other items with my family. read more

Easily one of the best Vietnamese restaurant in OC. I came to try their restaurant without any expectation, on a Thursday morning. To my surprise, every single dish that we ordered was amazing. (+1) when the owner said she doesnt like to add sugar to her food, and I can tell since a lot of her dishes are more on the savory side. -Seafood Udon: bánh canh tôm cua: Sai Gon Xua nailed it!!! I am super picky with this dish since my grandma makes it the best. This is the first time that I gonna say a banh canh from a restaurant lives up to my preference, feels just like eating at home: the broth is not too condensed, very flavorful, they use real crabs, and each bowl has like 3 giant shrimps!. Even the boiled pork was nicely cut , ingredients are very fresh and I can see the owner put a lot of passion + thoughts to this dish. 10/10 for me. I probably gonna order this again tomorrow thats how delicious the banh canh was lol. - Crispy egg with rice doug ( Bột Chiên). OOooh 9.5/10.my photo does not do this dish justice, she ( the chef) made it crispy on the outside but still soft inside. Its a simple appetizer, but hard to nail the flavor. Many places tried to make this dish but they turned out to be chewy and greasy, so far this is my favorite one. - Vermicilli with crispu crab wrap: oh wow. This reminds me of the flavor of Nem cua be from a famous place in Saigon (district 1). It was cooked perfectly, the seasoning, the wrap, how the "nem" was perfectly fried. Also dont forget to order a Viet Coffee! Overall, i would love to come back here to try other specialties :)! Worth the wait and the drive. read more

Today I discovered one of the best bun rieu and banh canh from a restaurant. It's difficult to find really good bun rieu as I've gotten comfortable enjoying my family's home-made styles in the past. I especially enjoyed the texture of noodles in the banh canh and the thinner vermicelli noodles for the bun rieu. The soup and toppings for each dish were very tasty as well. Also ordered the fried crab rolls and it was very delicious too. read more

Service was slow. It took a while to get our food; there was 3 waiters and maybe one cook? Food was mid. Ordered the banh da cua. I thought there'd be cua (crab) but it was mostly tofu, pork ham and noodles. The broth was a bit bland so I had to doctor it up with some fish sauce, lemon and chili to feel something. Parking is horrible. I had to park at the asian garden mall and walk to the joint. Ambiance outside was cute, it had fruit trees (albeit fake fruit were hanging from some branches) and live parakeet birds next to a couch sitting area that made you question various stains... I will try this place again for their bun mam (fermented fish noodle soup) which I see has better reviews. read more

The Bún Mắm Trà Vinh was very well balanced between savory, sweetness, and full of umami flavors. It has all the right ingredients, although the fresh herbs accompaniment lacks some herbs. Friendly service staffs. The place is clean and bright with lots of seating space. Parking however, will be hard, especially during weekends and holidays. So plan accordingly. The menu offers other dishes as well and I will try them at another time. read more

Great Bun Mam from Can Tho province of Vietnam. A delicious delicacy full of flavorful umami goodness is known as Bun Mama or stinky fish soup noodles with fresh local herbs and spices from that region of Vietnam. Beware it's highly recommended and quite addictive once you've tried Bun Mama stinky soup with fish and squid. Everything is good here too and always made to order. No microwave needed. A quiet garden next to the fire station. Enjoy the evening and get your hands on some delicious Bun Mama today. read more

First time here and I had a great experience. The service was good, and the food was just as enjoyable. I ordered the bun nam and steamed squid spring rolls both were delicious, and the dipping sauce that came with the squid spring roll really stood out. I haven't had bun nam at other places, so I can't compare, but I definitely enjoyed it. Overall, I would come back again, stick with the bun nam, and try a few other dishes as well. read more

Saw this place from one of the well known Vietnamese influencers so we decided to try it since it has the fish fermented soup with vermicelli(Bún mǎm) and the famous Bánh tǎm bì. We also ordered crab tomatoes soup and the crab and minced pork egg rolls. The crab and minced pork egg rolls were good. Wrapped in large lettuce leaves and varieties of mints with fish sauce. The house special Bánh tam bi is unique to the middle area of Vietnamese cuisine. In a tray, it has Vermicelli, bean sprouts with cucumbers and strips of pork and special noodles. Served with coconut milk and fish sauce. Mix it all together and enjoy. Not sure how to describe the flavor but it was different. The two noodle soups were just a meh! The special egg rolls was a saving grace to our lunch. Services were attentive and friendly. The restaurant has a very nice outdoor dinning area. Feels like you are back in Sai Gon city. read more

I wonder how I could miss this spot in Bolsa for so long. And I can't believe how under rate this restaurant is. We ordered bot chien, bun mam and grilled pork vermicelli. Everything was the delicious. If I must, I would say they have the best bun mam in all of OC and I had bun mam at least at 5 other places including homemade ones. The bot chien was so crispy to perfection. My mom and I always crave for bot chien in Vietnam because we couldn't find a place that cook it right here until now. My mom loved the big chien here so much she came back a week later while I came back for bun mam again separately . They have the decoration like a small hometown restaurant in south Vietnam which is cute. Service was quick. I like how clean it is and you don't smell like the food walking out of the restaurant. Highly recommended this restaurant to all bun mam lovers. read more

Visited this restaurant for the first time after watching some YouTubers dining here. Thought I would try something different this time: the noodles soup with baby squid. It was surprisingly very good. They served in a big bowl and the squids were so tender. There was some ground pork and a quail egg. Broth was also very good and you can tell it was made with bones and not some pre-made soup powder. The restaurant is fairly large but kind of dated. But I came for good foods so it didn't bother me. Business appears to be owned by a small family with the parents and their son. Service was quick and the boy was respectful. Will be back soon with my family. read more

Fresh chili but not spicy. Banh Mi Chao: the beef is chewy and dry. Not recommended. read more

It's very disappointed. I bought 2 trays Lẩu Mắm today (6/18/26), and went home found flies inside. I called the store and they said their kitchen very clean so no flies. We live in San Diego and these trays are unopened (still sealed). We drove home for 2 hours from little Saigon. The food is inside the car so where are these flies coming from? How the flies can get inside? The owner is very rude. The food is not cheap (almost $99). We paid for it and want to enjoy it. We are disappointed about how the owner responded. read more

Moms recommendation and plus celebrating her bday as well. This new restaurant is next to Phuoc Loc Tho (Asian Garden Mall) on Bolsa/Moron. Inside is inviting and it's quite big. Menu is simple with appetizers and entrees. Order Vermicelli with grilled pork plus Egg Roll (Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio) while parents got Rice with Filet (Com Bo Luc Lac). Water is free. Family got Coffee with Codensed Milk (Cafe Asia Da). Fans of Vietnamese food knows what to expect. Vermicelli is good and meat was grilled enough to not to be burn which is a good thing. Viet coffee is little too sweet. Com Bo luc lac presentation was good and grilled peppers was charcoal enough. Service is lack and it wasn't busy. You have to get their attention is you need something. Overall, very good.

​Absolute disappointment. My family and I loved their other location, but this spot is a massive downgrade. The bún mắm was bland, and the fish texture was awful--clearly defrosted too quickly before cooking. ​Worse than the food was the service. The waiters here seem to enjoy mocking customers from behind the register. They will loudly mock you to your face and then run off to the kitchen. The owner witnessed the entire interaction and didn't even bother to step in, which says a lot about this establishment. Great employee training you have going on there. read more
