Food and service are great here! We were able to make reservations and preorder a large baked catfish, which was brought out a few minutes after we were seated. Instead of ordering the complete 7 course beef, we went with our favorites: Bo La Lot and charbroiled meatballs. Everything was fresh and delicious! The staff was very attentive and would stop by often to check on us and refill our waters. read more

You MUST come here for the baked fish. They bring out rice paper, veggies and herbs to go along with it. Sauces and condiments are at the table. It takes about 30 mins for it to come out so be patient. Its really tasty and worth it! This place is spacious and great for having larger groups. The servers are friendly though it can get busy so sometimes things run a bit slower. Right when you get in be sure to put your name down on the clipboard. There's not always someone at the front to service you so its best to just be proactive and ask if there's any tables avail. read more

Came with a group to have Bo 7 mon and grilled fish. The 7 courses were good. Love how they give a LOT of veggies. Also got additional shrimp on the side to grill and a medium fat fish. The fish was really good. The skin was crispy while the meet was cooked just right. I also love their sauces too. read more

Great place for big family dinner. Went with a group of 11, ordered three catfish and two bo 7 mon. Way too much food. The catfish skin was crispy, while the meat was tender and flavorful. There was no grassy smell/taste that is typical of catfish. On the other hand, I would skip the name sake of the restaurant. The bo 7 mon was underwhelming, and the only dish of the 7 that was enjoyable was the bo la lot (beef in bezel leaves). The vinegar shabu beef, lemon grass grilled beef, steamed meat cake (I'm skeptical that this was beef as its color and taste was more like pork) and beef porridge weren't good. The veal salad and meat balls were good but not great Definitely come for the catfish! read more

Thien An Bo 7 Mon - Catfish medium - Vietnamese Near Me - Rosemead, California

Thien An Bo 7 Mon provided an incredible experience for our group of eight on a Friday night. We were able to secure a reservation for 7:00 PM and were seated immediately upon arrival. Our server, Kevin, truly made the night memorable. He is hilarious and charismatic, ensuring we were well taken care of while keeping everyone laughing throughout the entire meal. The food was fantastic, especially the large catfish we ordered along with several other dishes. A helpful tip for anyone planning a visit is to order the catfish in advance when you make your reservation, as it is a popular item that takes some time to prepare. The dining style is interactive and fun since you wrap your own rolls using the catfish and various meats accompanied by fresh vegetables and vermicelli. We were there celebrating a friend's birthday, and the staff was kind enough to keep our cake in the fridge until we were ready for dessert at the end of the night. Everything was delicious, and the service made the celebration even more special. read more

New experience alert. My good friend Ben shared with me this Vietnamese place. I've never been to a place where they specialize in the catch fish where it's prepared Vietnamese style. You make these rolls with the fish with the sauce that you create along with all the side raddish's, carrots, and lettuce. We got the medium fish and it filled the 3 of us. The service was great. Our server got us everything we needed whenever we needed it. It feels like a bbq place and there's definitely a like so come early. My friend pre ordered the fish because it takes some time to prepare. Super delicious meal. You've got to try it. read more

Had an early dinner at this location on a Saturday around 4pm. Lots of parking in the plaza available. The restaurant is very big. The bathrooms were kept nice and tidy too! Upon arrival I thought they were closed since there weren't too many seated customers. So it felt tranquil while we were seated. During our meal, around 5pm more families started showing up for prime dinner time. Service was good overall. Service got a little hectic as more families showed up for prime dinner time. For my drink I got my favorite soda xi muoi. The drink was prepared perfectly. Their water was great as well! For an appetizer I order nem chua. Their nem chua was perfect! Some pieces had big pieces of chili, so be cautious! Thankfully the chili is visible so it is easy to take out if needed. For our table of 3 we ordered the small sized baked catfish. Our server forewarned us that it would take 30 min to cook, but it still seemed faster than 30 min. The catfish was delicious! Came with the rice paper, daikon and carrot pickles, herbs, and lettuce. The cat fish was cooked very well and was delicious. For a table of 3 the small felt almost too big, but we were able to finish it! read more

If you're looking for authentic Vietnamese flavors and a truly satisfying dining experience, Thien An Bo 7 Mon is a must-visit. Known for its specialty in seven-course beef dishes, this restaurant delivers bold, traditional flavors in every bite. From the moment the food arrives, you can tell everything is freshly prepared and thoughtfully seasoned. Each course brings something different from savory and tender beef dishes to refreshing herbs and wraps that let you customize every bite. The variety keeps the meal exciting, and by the end, you feel completely satisfied. We also ordered large cat fish. A MUST ordered! The atmosphere is casual not updated. But, definitely welcoming, making it a great place for family dinners or group outings. The staff is super friendly, always making sure your table is well taken care of. Portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and amount of food you receive. I left full and very satisfied!!!! read more

First time having baked fish with my Vietnamese friends. This place is serious when you have lots of Vietnamese going there. We did the 7 course beef and also the small baked fish for the 3 of us. All the stuff is very tasty with the South Asian flavors. There is a lot of wrapping going on with the rice papers and also fresh veggies. Very different from the Pho and vermicelli noodles I'm used to at Vietnamese restaurants. The 7 course beef has many different flavors to try and 2 ways for cooking beef. All are very savory The catfish (baked fish) is very scrumptious with a BBQ-type glaze which makes it flavorful as well. Definitely a place to go to again. Take credit card. Parking in the mall shared with supermarket and other businesses. Not too busy on a Sunday around lunch read more

This is still my favorite place to host a large party. Over the years, it's been our go-to spot for family gatherings. The food hasn't changed at all and it's still incredibly delicious, and we always get the 7-courses of beef. The service was top-notch, too. The staff were very hospitable and accommodating. Most recently, we came for a birthday and totally forgot to bring plates and utensils for the cake. Even though we were a big group, a staff member named Kevin saved the day and brought us plates, plastic forks, and a knife for the cake. We even had little kids running around, and the staff didn't say anything. It was great to just enjoy ourselves without any stress. Plus, we were able to make a reservation the day before and add more people the day of with no issues. read more

Straight Fire and Desire! Shoutout to the homie Mr A5 wagyu's finest J for showing us this place. Food so good make you wanna slap yo mama! We started with the tôm lǎn bôt, gói bò tôm thiên ân (shrimp), châ giò chay & chá giò for the 5 of us. We also ordered the tôm nůóng vi to grill on the table and mix with our roles. Then incomes the grand cá nůóng da giòn 7lb fatty. "You got me saying My, My, My... My, My, My... You sure look good tonight" Everything is so good.

Came here with my mom on our day off, and we always have such a great experience! Kevin was our server this time, and he was so helpful and attentive throughout our visit. We love coming here because the food is always fresh and delicious. We usually order two large plates of meat since it's more than enough for us and fun to cook at the table. The Bò Nướng Vĩ (large) is $23, and the Bò Nướng Lá Lốt (large) is also $23 -- each comes with about 10 pieces. All the sides like lettuce, mint, cucumber, radish, carrots, rice paper wraps, and more come included, which is such a nice touch. If it's your first time, I highly recommend trying the 7-course meal. It's a great way to sample everything and find your favorites. We've already figured out which dishes we love most, so now we usually just stick to those two, but the full set is perfect for first-timers. The vibe here is casual and family-friendly, with big tables that are perfect for groups. Most of the customers are families enjoying a meal together, and it really adds to the welcoming atmosphere. read more

anytime I crave for spring rolls with baked fish I always come here. Honestly soo good the fish comes out so flakey and crispy. The meat inside is so juicy.

Thien An No. 7 has been our family's go to spot for celebrations for years, especially when we're celebrating my mom. For our family of seven, we always call ahead and order their famous baked medium catfish the day before so it's ready when we arrive for our reservation. It's always the highlight of the meal. We also never skip the 7 Courses of Beef and usually order two sets for the table. Everything is delicious and perfect for sharing family style. What keeps us coming back, beyond the amazing food, is the warm and welcoming family atmosphere. The staff always make us feel at home and Kevin is hands down the best! He's friendly, attentive and always helps make our celebrations feel extra special. Great food, great service, and a place that truly feels like family. Highly recommend for any family gathering or special occasion! read more

My extended clan safely defaults towards Italian or Chinese food when eating out for an epic get-together. Thien An in Rosemead is an exception -- as we did, to celebrate a birthday. Thien An is famous for its enormous catfish, which is slow baked rather than fried, resulting in a crispy skin with tender and flaky meat. One medium-sized catfish adequately feeds 4 people - and we ordered more than enough for 12 people. Pro tip: Call in and order the catfish at least 40 minutes before arriving as it takes that long to prepare! And here they come to our table, straight from the oven on oversized platters -- as you can hear their skin crackling. Each is drenched in hot scallion-infused oil, then smothered in crushed peanuts and fresh cilantro. The impressive spread arrives with DIY plates of rice paper, rice vermicelli, fresh lettuce, herbs, cucumbers, pickled carrots, and daikon. Steam hisses from the catfish -- enough for a facial -- as we started pulling off chunks of flaky fish with our chopsticks. Dipping the rice paper in warm water makes them pliable. Then, place the fish on it, add herbs, vegetables, vermicelli, roll tightly like eggrolls, and dip them into umami-packed fish sauce, or fermented anchovy sauce. The flavor profile is unlike anything we've ever tasted. The first thing that hits your senses is the crispiness and sweetness of the caramelized catfish skin. Next comes the tenderness of the flaky meat, accented by garlic, crunchy peanuts, mint, shallots, ginger, and lemon grass. The leafy greens bring an herbaceous brightness. Lastly, the pickled carrots and daikon, and pungent fish sauce, round out the richness. The servers -- a shoutout to Kevin, help guide newcomers on how to eat the catfish, and go out of their way to help mix the dipping sauces to our liking. We also ordered grilled spicy ground beef wrapped in betel leaves, and the charbroiled ground beef meatballs wrapped in caul fat. Combining meat with fish makes for an interesting combination. Dining here is a memorable -- and epic experience. Five stars -- no hesitation and no asterisk. The next time we have another one of our family get-togethers, Thien An is our default. read more

If you love beef, this is the place for it! 7 courses of beef cooked differently This place is authentic! I love how all the vegetables are provided - no skimping! And rice papers, too! We ordered two sets of the 7 courses of beef. It was enough for my family of 4 (I have two daughters). We also added an order of the La Lot because it's just amazingly yummy! Servers were friendly and quick to respond. Lots of seating...great place for large parties. IMO, more people is better so you can order lots of food! I have to go back with more people so I can order the grilled catfish. Haha! read more

Came here on a Saturday night with the fam to enjoy dinner. The service here is incredible from the beginning till the end. My baby cousin accidentally spilled water and one server acted upon it quickly. We're thankful that he was not annoyed by it or show through his facial expression. As for food wise, my family loves to order the same thing whenever we come here. Grill fish and a bunch of sides includes vermicelli, rice paper, and lots of veggies. The fish tends to take the longest, so just order some appetizers while you wait. Everything we ordered was good. The restaurant itself is pretty big with multiple long tables, so wait time shouldn't be too bad. read more

Service is terrible, they really need to have someone at the front to answer question on waiting time before signing in for a table. The waiting is really long, no reservation taken. It a Saturday, so it could be lots of customers but they really need to have more helper on the weekend. read more

I LOVE this place. It has been a staple in our family for years. We come here multiple times in a year to celebrate birthdays, Mother/Father's Day, or even randomly when we're just craving. They bring out dried rice paper with water where you can quickly dip it and then proceed to fill your paper with anything you want to make your very own customized spring roll. They specialize in 7 course beef here which they have a set you can order that gives a little bit of all the meats. You can also order a la carte as well if there's one dish you particularly like. I really like the Bo Nuong Vi (marinated beef) since they bring out a little sizzling plate for you to cook on the spot. I also love getting extra orders of the Goi Bo Tom Thien An (Shrimp & Beef salad) since it adds good crunch and a citrusy flavor into my rolls. Included in your meal are a platter of refillable veggies like carrots, bean sprouts, and lettuce. Aside from meat, you can order a giant catfish depending on the size of your group. Pro tip if you know you're coming beforehand, you can call in and have them reserve a catfish for you. Otherwise, it would take like 15-25 min for them to prepare it on the spot. We basically spend hours here making endless spring rolls. The place is huge and can accommodate big groups as well. All the servers here are very friendly and attentive as well. read more

Great services and the best Vietnamese grilled fish. The staff are super nice and friendly. Beef ball and beef leave

We came here for dinner recently for their infamous baked whole catfish and they were busy. We ordered the large catfish for a party of 5, and they only needed 30 minutes to cook it. The catfish came with spring roll rice paper and mint leaves/pickled veggies. We also ordered rice noodles, some sides, and meat to grill to wrap in our spring rolls. Dip your rolls in some fish sauce with chili sauce and yummy! All the food was fresh. Service was quick and attentive. Free parking in the parking lot. We really enjoyed dinner here. Highly recommend. read more

Thien An Bo 7 Mon - Rosemead, CA I hadn't been back here in almost a decade, and I'm happy to say Thien An is still serving the same high-quality food with excellent service. It's always great when a place stays true to what made it special in the first place. We came with friends and family and ordered the medium-sized baked catfish--perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. For appetizers, we had the house special beef and shrimp salad, the charbroiled meatball, and the charbroiled meat wrapped in Hawaiian leaf, which was especially juicy and flavorful. We also tried the house special fried rice. It was fine, but definitely overshadowed by the other dishes. One of the most enjoyable parts of eating here is building your own spring rolls. It's interactive, fun, and makes the meal feel a little more special. The fermented fish sauce and tamarind sauce pair perfectly with the fish and grilled meats. The atmosphere here is warm and welcoming--great for family gatherings or celebrating with friends. If you're looking for a spot that delivers on flavor and a great dining experience, Thien An is still one of the best. read more

4.4 stars This is one of my favorite restaurants in the SGV. What I really like about them is 100% food & service-based. The ambiance is just casual. What we usually order when my large family gets together (between 8 - 16 people): Large ($89)/XL (?) catfish: A must order if you have a large family. The fish is baked/roasted until the skin is crispy & served whole, topped with oil scallions. I recommend the large b/c it is meatier than the smaller ones. The smaller ones are pretty bony. When you order this, it comes with banh trang (rice paper), fresh veggies/herbs/pickled carrots & daikon, & sauces. Those are refilled when the table runs low on ingredients. Bo nuong la lot: this is seasoned ground beef wrapped in betel leaves - grilled. In the past, the beef used to be a larger portion, but it has since gone through shrinkflation. A large comes with 10 beef rolls for $22. Still worth the splurge for me :) Dia Thit Nuong: Grilled pork that is sliced & served with fresh romain lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, & oil scallions. The oil scallions are delicious! I believe this is now $24 per plate. Cha Gio: Eggrolls are always a hit, but it's 5 rolls for $14. Again, worth the splurge to me. Not too salty...just deep-fried perfection. Don't remember the name of this dish, but it is the grilled beef rolled w/ onions. This is pretty good too, but I think it's expensive for what it is. And this is something easily made at home, I think. This is definitely a popular restaurant & I do recommend coming early for lunch/dinner. If you're a fan of Vietnamese food & would like to portions for lots of people, this is the place to be! Service is also pretty great, too. Also, free parking on site. read more

I come here every couple months when I'm craving with family. We always get the fried catfish and wrap it with all the leafs, pickled veggies, cucumbers. And we can customize the fish sauce to dip with. The medium sized catfish is pretty huge and can comfortably feed 4-5 ppl. It's just so deliciously soft and tender. The skin is crispy and everything about the wraps are so full of flavor! I love this place!! We also got the 7 Courses of Beef which prepares the beef in different ways. Boiled, grilled, meatballs, wrapped in a leaf, soup, etc. The restaurant is huge with lots of seating . The staff serving are pretty quick. read more

This place used to be good, but the quality has gone down. My family comes her for the grilled fish, ca nuong, and the 7 course of beef, bo 7 mon. The 7 course of beef was pretty good, but they have shrink flation going on here. What used to feed 2-3 people now feeds 1 to maybe 2 people for a higher price than before. I didn't really enjoy the grilled fish, but I've never found any good grilled fish anywhere in San Gabriel valley. The fish has never tasted fresh. The shining star about this place was the service. They really make you feel welcomed. It's a big plus! read more

We got there Saturday at noon (hours 12-9 weekend/ 3-9 weekdays) and seated right away it is such a huge restaurant there are plenty of tables . Our server is very nice and friendly. Patient too, when he realized we're new to this make-your-own-wrap arrangement. We ordered the 2 famous items of this place: 7 courses beef and fried catfish. Each course is $32 and 2 people can enjoy BUT I would recommend going at least 4 to be more fun! We got smallest fish which is actually more than a foot long. It was really enjoyable and fun to wrap your own rice paper rolls and savor the different tastes of beef. My favorite is the grilled ones. read more

This is one of my favorite spots for catfish spring rolls--the food is consistently great, and the service is pretty good too. The decor is a bit weird, but honestly, I'm here for the food, so it doesn't bother me much. A pro tip: always call ahead to order a catfish, so you don't end up waiting forever for it to be prepared. They also have excellent dishes for the 7-course beef; my favorite is the steamed meatloaf-looking dish (though I don't know the name of it). The leaf-wrapped meatball is another standout--super delicious. Be prepared for a bit of a wait, though. Even if you call ahead for the catfish, it doesn't guarantee you'll get a table right away. Despite the occasional wait, this place is my go-to. Sometimes, we even call in a to-go order just to enjoy it at home because the line can get long. read more

Thien An Bo 7 Mon - Cat fish - Vietnamese Near Me - Rosemead, California

I have been coming here for years, and this review is based on my last two visits. The restaurant is large, and you can usually get a table immediately Monday-Thursday. However, the restroom is dingy and gross. Catfish - The star of the restaurant. I always recommend calling 20-30 minutes ahead, as it takes a while to prepare. Ordering can be a bit strange because the medium sometimes feels the same size as the large, even though you're paying $15+ more. They charge by weight, but it feels like you're getting scammed choosing the large over the medium. The fish can be hit or miss, with the flesh occasionally turning out mushy. I've ordered it to-go before, and they told me if it's mushy, call them and they'll honor a replacement on your next visit. Overall, it's still the best baked catfish in the San Gabriel Valley. The meat is moist, and the skin is crispy and crunchy. Bò nướng lá lốt - Juicy, tender, and full of flavor. This is my family's favorite. Bò nướng mỡ chài - Juicy, meaty, and milder in flavor. Bò chả đùm - Smooth, tasty, and sometimes peppery. This dish can be hit or miss. Once, we received an order that looked discolored and tasted rancid. They replaced it, but on our most recent visit, the meat was under-seasoned. The shrimp cracker is always good, though. Bún thịt nướng, tôm, và chả giò - A hidden gem. The lettuce and carrots are nicely shredded, and the meat is flavorful and generous. I don't see many people ordering this, but it's worth trying. I once asked a young server if the fried rice was good; he said yes. I tried it, and it was terrible. The house special fried rice was mushy and bland -- easily the worst dish. If you can, try to get the middle-aged server who always jokes around. His attitude is infectious and really lifts the mood. read more

One of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants that offers the 7 course beef meal. I would say this is less popular than the usual pho or banh mi dishes but a great option for exploring different types of Vietnamese food. Over the years the prices have gone up but the quality is still consistently good! The set menu for 7 course beef will be filling enough for 2 people and it's a great experience to make your own summer rolls. If you're looking to have bigger rolls, order a side of vermicelli. From grilling, boiling, beef salad, to bbq meats and beef porridge, this sampler menu is always the best go to option! read more

You could also make rolls with these meats. BONUS the restaurant inside is huge so the wait is very fast even on busy nights.
