Can't believe I didn't do a review for them before the fire. The place and parking lot itself was…read morequite small. It was always packed with people dining. We came here to grab dinner. They were busy as usual so we ordered to go. We ordered a grilled pork banh mi, grilled chicken banh mi, banh cuon, and grilled pork rice plate. Everything was very tasty and delicious. A favorite for Vietnamese food in the area that's for sure. Can't wait til they open their new location soon. Even tho it won't be in CV..I don't mind driving to the Stack. I still need to try their other items including their pho.

Was feeling under the weather after a week of traveling so I decided to take a trip to my favorite…read morepho spot, pho auntie 7. My bf and I came an hour before closing and it was packed, but were able to get a seat as soon as we walked in. They have plenty of seating for large groups or smaller parties. The food here never disappoints! Ordered the large rare beef pho with extra beef on the side, the shrimp spring rolls and the fried potstickers. The pho is the best I've ever had. The broth is flavorful and seasoned to perfection. The soup is packed with meat and noodles. The spring rolls are fresh, the ingredients they use really make a difference in quality of the food. The fried potstickers are crunchy and delicious and the sauce they paired it with was sweet and balanced the flavor of the potstickers. Even though it was busy, the kitchen was quick and we had our food within minutes of ordering. This place has so much more than pho, I'll be back to try more from their extensive menu!

This is what happens when you never hear the word "NO" growing up. I love love love this restaurant. Food is great. Service is great. Yes of course, sometimes the foods are not as good as the usual, but that's normal for any restaurants. We are all humans. We cannot keep 100% quality at all times. Even when you go to a 5-star restaurant, you will be faced with this reality. Get over it! For those people who complain how the prices went up or the quantity went down, you should just stay at home and cook your own food. For some of us who don't have our head up so deep in b*tth*le, we know that prices EVERYWHERE have gone up ever since pandemic. In order for restaurants and other businesses to survive, they need to either increase the price or reduce the quantity. For those who keep saying this is your favorite restaurant but then again you complain about the quantity or the price or both, COOK AT HOME THEN!!! Here is Economy 101. Businesses exist to make money. I know that it's a BIG SURPRISE for some of you. If they don't make money, they will close. If you don't understand that, maybe you should go back to school. I really hope more people stand up for what's right. Not just for this restaurant, for others as well (whether they are restaurants, car wash, etc). I see so many complaints but rarely anyone defend them.

I tried to reheat the broth on the stove, order noodles on the side, and both ways did not cook the noodles properly. Aside from pho, we enjoy their Banh Mi and rice plates. The steak and shrimp are some over our favorites. We love the runny egg on top of the rice plates! The staff is kind and patient. The food comes out quickly and there is plenty of seating.

I was going to get Pho but the Bun Rieu looked pretty appealing and it's not a usual item to be offered so I opted for Bun Rieu. My daughter got garlic noodles with beef instead. Both items were very good and filling. I like the fact that I can choose the size of my Bun Rieu as most places only offer one size and it's usually for Pho rather than Bun Rieu. Might try their Bun Bo Hue next time. The place gets pretty packed around lunch time so it's a good sign that it's a popular joint for lunch. We arrived just after 12pm. If we were a little later, we might not get a table at all. There was plenty of parking in the strip mall. There's a cheap gas Arco just around the corner.

Pho portion was on the smaller side with limited veggie toppings. Flavor was standard. Banh mi bo ne sizzling plate had good flavor. Banh mi sandwich was not impressive with very thin sliced cha lua and pickled veggies. The sandwich was on the drier side with no taste of any pate. One rare sighting was sugarcane juice which is not often sold. The food came out quickly was which a plus.

There was one guy hosting, seating you, and taking orders, and he would forget what you asked him for, which made for a difficult experience. I asked for an extra bowl and some toppings, but I ended up having to get up myself and ask the table bussers, who were bringing water and picking up plates, for assistance with what I needed. Service: 0 stars. Food: Maybe 4 stars. But when you combine the food and service together, I'd give this place 3 stars at best.

I've been here a handful of times and for whatever reason last night broth was enhanced, protein was better quality. No wonder they have business at 9 PM whereas other places are closed or have limited customers You don't come across a lot of Vietnamese restaurants that is spacious for strollers and upgrade their drink menu. I think these are two of many reasons why this place is successful. You see multiple strollers at 9 PM, babies who definitely should be home in their crib at that hour lol. Every other table has a soda, a coffee, or a smoothie drink to accommodate their entrée. This establishment is also good at marketing themselves online. This is probably one of the few if not only Vietnamese restaurants where you can do online ordering. Overall, spacious parking lot, excellent service. They have also expanded their menu to other Vietnamese entrées that you would normally only see in South Bay authentic restaurants. overall a decent spot in the East Bay.

My children love boba and the Korean donuts, but there is nothing special about these items either. My unpopular opinion is the donuts are overrated and overpriced. I've come here since it was Lee's Bakery and the tastiness decreased while the prices increased. They do have plenty of snacks that are not available in other stores that we enjoy! In my personal experience, the wait for 4 milk tea boba drinks is about 10 - 15 minutes whether it's busy or not. The cashiers are usually quiet, polite, but not so welcoming. La Ca Bakery has hospital cafeteria vibes. It's clean and cold, hard metal seats and small tables for a quick bite, bright lights, and no music. La Ca is conveniently located on my daily route so I continue to stop in from time to time, but if it were not I wouldn't go out of my way.

The meat was season enough and I haven't eaten anywhere before. Also my dad ordered a pho bowl. The bowl came in with a huge bone but with a lot of meat on it.

A lot of place they will charge you more, which is very disappointing. Nowadays all the restaurants try to charge customers more for everything possible. Which makes me just want to cook at home more than eat out. The restaurant was very bright and clean even tho they open every long time. I would recommend everyone to give it a try. Definitely will go back.

This is my local go-to spot for Vietnamese sandwiches and drinks for take out…read more I've visited for over a decade and appreciate how their food is no nonsense and solid. They are consistently very good at what they do! Sure, this isn't cutting-edge, fusion type of Vietnamese sandwiches and drinks but through all these years their tradition of delicious foods are stellar. In addition to their various selection of sandwiches and fresh-made drinks/desserts, they also have hot foods at their hofbrau section for various sides of carbs (rice/noodles), proteins, and veggies. Tips: - no credit cards establishment so bring cash for easiest transacting. - try to visit during non-lunch windows as the store gets quite busy. - their rice rolls with pork or shrimp, in addition to their vietnamese rolls are sneaky addictive. I recommend to try this spot if you're ever in the mood for yummy Vietnamese eats!

He added forks and handed it to me keeping the caller in his ear, explaining the menu.
