Our food came out in a reasonable amount of time, which made the experience even better. It's also a really cute spot with great vibes.

Viet Thai Cafe - Pork Bún (Vermicelli Rice Noodle) - Thai Near Me - South Gate, California

Came for dinner and this place was packed. No one else was in line and they quickly cleaned up an empty table for us. I came for the pho dac biet and they did not disappoint. I like that it came with lots of tripe, meatballs, tendons, sliced rare steak, and brisket. A plate of lime, basil, bean sprouts, and jalapeño slices completed the order. I also ordered the papaya salad with shrimp and it was very refreshing. I also tried the seafood stir fry with garlic. The dish included mussels, clams, crab, shrimp, and fish. It was very flavorful and I definitely recommend. It was easy to get the waitress' attention. She brought extra water cups without asking. I like that she provided extra bowls and plates for sharing. I liked that they took 15% off of the bill for grand opening. There was one restroom next to the kitchen. Not sure if there is a parking lot but there were plenty of street parking right in front of the restaurant. read more

Viet Thai Cafe - Papaya salad with shrimp - Thai Near Me - South Gate, California

This was way better than I expected. I was able to get street parking right in front, which was pretty convenient. We got the papaya salad, pho dac biet, and seafood with garlic sauce. We went with the non-spicy papaya salad with shrimp and I liked that it had tomatoes and green beans in there. The pho dac biet was good and the tendon was really soft. The seafood with garlic sauce was really good with a lot of variety of seafood. Clams, mussels, both real crab and imitation crab, fish, shrimp, and squid. Came with rice to soak up that sauce. It was pretty busy on a Friday night, but the service was good and didn't have to wait long to eat. read more

We were craving tom yum soup and decided to try a new spot that had great reviews. From the outside it looks small, but once you're inside it's actually pretty nice and comfortable. We went on a Sunday night around 8 pm, and at first the place was completely empty, which kinda scared us because what if food wasn't good. But we knew it close at 9:30, so we assumed maybe that's why it was empty. As we started eating, the place quickly filled up, and after trying the food, it made total sense why. The tom yum soup was absolutely delicious, full of flavor and just what we were craving. The chow mein portion was HUGE and super satisfying. Prices were very reasonable too, about $50 for both plates. And the service was great, everyone was super attentive. Definitely a spot worth checking out! read more

Amazing Viet and thai food place! I got a beef pad thai plate and the portion was GENEROUSSS! Their food is fresh and so flavorful! I've also ordered take out and their food quality and portions don't drop! The owners put a lot of love in this restaurant and you can taste it in their food. I love the vlog YouTube videos they play in the restaurants where the people are in southeastern Asia, making the place so cozy as you eat the asian cuisine. Definitely will be a new to go place on my list!! read more

Service was friendly and fast. We went to this restaurant when it was Velma's and it looks completely different. It's clean and bright with pretty light fixtures. The food was excellent. Everything was fresh, hot, and flavorful. The prices are on the high competitive side BUT the portions are huge. We can eat a lot and we had almost full containers to take home. We can do 3 full meals tomorrow and that's a fantastic deal! We will definitely be back soon. read more

This was our 2nd time here and so far we've had beef pho, beef pad see ew, mango sticky rice, orange chicken, beef drunken noodles, beef bahn mi, and shrimp spring rolls. I really don't have any complaints about anything! The portions are huge, enough for at least 3ppl. The staff is also very nice and I kinda like that their TVs play what seems to be a show about different Asian street foods. Only thing I can say is the bahn mi was different than others I've had but still good. And their spicy meter is a little higher than average I'd say But didn't stop us, we just added white rice! read more

Thai Food is good and fresh. We did not try the Vietnamese food. We encountered 2 servers during our visit. The man is friendly but the woman was a bit inpatient. I am not sure whether just because language barrier but there was definitely no smile for us. It is a bit pricey but I think it is one of the better Asian food place around Downey. read more

This little hole in the wall is truly a hidden gem! Had the Pad Kee Mao and my partner had the brisket Phò, hands down the best we've had in such a long time! Their menu looked very impressive and pricing isn't ridiculous! The portions are huge! I couldn't even finish my dinner! The staff is super friendly, they don't make you feel like you're bothering them and very attentive. We went on a Friday evening at 7pm and it was quiet with plenty of seats available. My family and I will definitely come back to try more of their food and support a small business! read more

Tried this new spot in town and it was SO GOOD. Service was friendly, portions were huge, and everything tasted super fresh. We started with the chicken egg rolls and pork wontons-both delicious, though I wish the wontons had a bit more filling. I got the chicken pho with ramen noodles and loved the warm, savory broth. The chicken fried rice was great, and their Pad Thai (with different noodles than I'm used to) ended up being one of my favorites. The Thai tea was also amazing. For the quality and portion sizes, the prices are amazing. So happy to have such a great new restaurant in the city. Highly recommend! read more
