Bananas in Tapioca coconut milk
Betty G.

Hmm I thought I had reviews for this dessert place but somehow I don't see them? Very strange. Very good dessert. If you have a big sweet tooth, you'll be in heaven landing here. :) I always make a stop here and pick up some dessert and sticky rice (sweet or savory) every time I'm in the area. The line is always always long and moves very slowly so be patient. Got 5 different types of sticky rice, rice balls filled with smashed mung beans, and 2 dessert today. They are all so good, I had to have a few bites of everything as soon as I get in my car. :) Small, single serving and they run about $3-$4 each. Be careful though. Don't get them mixed up with the other location on Westminster Blvd. This location, on Bolsa, their dessert are so much fresher and better quality. I noticed some photos posted here are actually photos of the other location on Westminster Blvd. The only thing is the very long wait and depending on who serves you, you'd get more or less in each serving. I got a new lady serving me yesterday (yes, I recognize them all, been going here for over 10 years). All five boxes I ordered, she only filled them half-way full. Most servers would fill up those little size containers. She also added the sesame seeds seasoning to some of the sticky rice that don't require it. It definitely changed the taste of the dish!

That price for $4 , is it right ? On 2/17 what is it worth to $4 ? If you are going to sell the ..,haft box of $4

Bad service &$ 4 haft box for waste in the trash next day , quality very bad not worth

AVOID AVOID AVOID! Drinks are way too sweet!! Service is also terrible. They wanted to charge me a dollar for a separate cup because I wanted to dilute the sugary drink with ice. Don't even bother coming here. I had tried their Che ba mau in the past and now saam bo lượng and they're both super sweet. This place over all left a bad taste in my mouth.

I have been coming here coz it's closer than to Huntington beach than The one I like from GG. But that was the last time I would come here. Here's why, I told them not to put bird seeds (sesame seeds etc.. peanuts) I came home and had to spend 15 minutes removing them. The charged $1 for coconut instead of giving me a small cup. The worst offender was they made the dessert w CANNED THICK GOOEY COCONUT THICK SYRUP, IT tasted so gross, like I was eating a bar of SOAP! LOL!!! needless to say I trashed it. The other 2 Hien Khanh was better no soapy taste but their THAI DESSERT now no longer has coconut, they used CONDENSED MILK! WTH why they did that, in Thailand coconut is plentiful, they made it w fresh coco right off the tree, I was in Pattaya, bangkok and Koh samui on thanksgiving week. Maybe it spoils faster so they pulled a fast one on us, I'm calling them out STOP W THE CONDENSED MILK or the soapy stuff or I'm not going back, it's OK, I can still find places that sell authentic Thai food. Try Jumpa thai, they have exquisite coconut ice cream served in a real coco!

Selection of sticky rice (savory and sweet), sweet corn dessert, rolled casava cakes with coconut shreds

As you can see they make tons of che (desserts) and xoi (sweet sticky rice). We found this location first and my mom did her thing lol. I do think the banana cakes we got were old because it had a fermented taste to it. I like the other locations near the T&K supermarket. But that one has a long line.

The sesame balls are the BEST!  Get a bunch
Elizabeth N.

Get in line then when a lady is free to help you she will raise her hand. The lady was super sweet that helped me. I got the che baba which has sweet potatoes and coconut milk. It was only ok. I wish I had gotten the che ba mau or the mochi che. The flan-awesome, creamy and light. Banana fried-was good. The green and yellow striped jelly-good. The star though?-the banh cam-the fried sesame balls with mung bean filling. The lightest and crispiest I've ever had. The xoi with sausage was super good too. There were so many others I wanted to try. I didn't have enough stomach for more. Will have to visit again I guess!

Jasmine V.

Got the xoi gac, xoi sau rieng, and che dau and che chuoi. They were all delicious and fresh! However, the portions for the xoi were not as filled as they were used to. I just wish they fill it up a bit more cause they be expensive for one box. Also the service is slow sometimes hence the 3 stars.

Smaller store The service is super quick. Options stills a lot, just not as many was the other store. The food is still very good Recommend

I love a good Vietnamese place that not only gives you good portions but also great deals. 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!

Welcome to Day 2 of OC Food Journals, where I try a new place every day so you don't have to…read more Today's stop was Loi's Kitchen, and honestly, this review is a little overdue. 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!

I love Oc & Lau so much that I ended up visiting both locations within a few weeks of each other…read more The location on Garden Grove Blvd is smaller so seating is not as comfortable. This review I assume is the OG on Garden Grove -- parking could be tough during the weekend. OC & La, is a Vietnamese seafood spot for sharing a bunch of dishes. I found out that "OC" means snails! I thought it was Orange County! Hahaha. We tried - razor clams, scallops (HUGE), the selection of salads are amazing so we got the spicy mango - House Special Mango Salad with squid & escargot -- is spicy , tangy, refreshing, and the refreshing taste! My favorite dish was the HUGE fried fish...color is amazing and the way the fish was presented seal the deal for me. Between two people, we devoured the entire fish !! It's the kind of place where you order "just a few things" and suddenly the entire table is covered in food. But, I'm not complaining since the team is very quick in getting the used plates off our tables. Also, both places offered FREE dessert. It's like a coconut based taro and other root sweet dish.

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.

Overall, a simple spot with a focused menu and some dishes with their own unique flavors. I'd come back to try some of the other items.

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.
