Banh Cuon Ta Ho 2. The "two" maybes referred to the 2nd location!? I stopped by unintentionally and literally following a crowd...wasn't specific intended to eat rice rolls. Hahaha. Parking can be a little tight during peak hours, but it's worth the patience. This is a small restaurant perpendicular to the Asian Mall. The interior is configured with a dozen tables very, very tightly packed seats. But, seems like the crowd comes here for their rice rolls and golden, extra-crispy toppings. The Banh Cuon Dac Biet is the specialty-- but there are 7 other varieties to choose using the rice rolls as the base. To me they all seems the same -- that melt-in-your-mouth rice sheet paired with fried shallots topped with fried shrimp and sweet potatoes!! The texture is soft but still holds the rolled-shape, and it soaks up their fish sauce (nuoc mam) sauce is clean and light made in-house. Service is fast and no-nonsense (no-frills). It's not fancy inside, but you're here for the food - - so all good and worth returning. read more

This spot is hidden in a small plaza next to Asian Garden Mall with limited parking. The owner will sometimes come out to assist with the parking situation. They're most well known for banh cuon, which is Vietnamese rice paper, and my favorite part of the combo 1 is their fried sweet potato with shrimp. You can also get this as a single dish. I enjoy the variety that combo no 1 gives and I dunk everything into the fish sauce they provide. read more

I am visiting the area with a large group of friends and as the resident Vietnamese, I took it upon myself to recommend restaurants for the group to eat. We all had pho the day before so I wanted to introduce them to a dish they may or may not have tried before. I found Banh Cuon Tay Ho and saw that they also had a vegetarian/vegan "Chay" menu for myself so our group of 12 went here to eat. It is a small restaurant located right next to the Phuoc Loc Tho Mall. We waited 5 minutes and they were able to set up 3 tables of 4 to accommodate our large group. We ordered everything: Banh Cuon - both meat & veggie, Banh Xeo, Vermicelli Bowls, Bun Bo Hue, and even Banh Beo. Food came out pretty quickly and the portions were massive! Plenty of food to share and go around. Lots of fresh veggies and herbs for all the dishes were provided. For my vegan dishes, they gave me vegan Nouc Cham (fish sauce). We left full and happy! Wish we had something like this back in San Francisco. read more

Located in a very small strip mall, with minimal parking spaces. We parked few blocks away, and were at the mall next door, so we walked over. Ok so it's not the best service, but it wasn't the worst. It was just typical for these parts of town. So just don't expect much and you won't be disappointed. The banh cuon dac biet was delicious. I would've preferred more of the sticky, chewy noodle over the deep fried toppings. The banh cuon itself is great, tho. The fresh soy bean milk was perfect, not overly sweet. I'd go back for a quick bite, if I was ever in the area. read more

Banh Cuon Tay Ho 2 - Banh cuon dac biet - Vietnamese Near Me - Westminster, California

This is the best banh cuon I've ever had!! It was recommended by a local if you wanna get banh cuon. Back at home in FL they use rice paper instead, which is the lazy fast way so it looks completely different. I loved how fresh it was and the fish sauce was also tasty. They also top it with fried sweet potato to give it a nice light sweetness to the dish. To use the bathroom, you have to walk through the kitchen, and you can see grandma and grandpa cooking in the back. That's how you know it's legit. read more

My sisters and I came to this restaurant, and they were playing the news. We didn't feel like being bummed by the news, so we asked if the restaurant minded if they could change the channel. The staff gave us the remote and let us change the channel ourselves! I really really appreciated that. We have come back many times since! Out of all the bánh cuốn places we've had in OC, theirs is closest to authentic Hanoi bánh cuốn. It's not perfect but it's close! Thank you again! read more

Our large group came early in the morning on a weekday. We all ordered #1 Bánh cuốn đặc biệt Tây ho. They give a good portion and our food came out fast. Food was pretty good, however some banh cuon were falling apart/broken. Overall, good place for banh cuon and I would recommend the #1. It's located in the small plaza so parking can be difficult. read more

One of my go to's for a quick fix. Also one of the few banh cuon places that are open late. Came at 6pm for my third time in a week LOL. Always plenty of seating available. Ordered the Banh Cuon Dac Biet. Food came out promptly and I love that there's always a jug of fish sauce on each table. Enough for you to bathe yourself or your entree with! Pay at the counter and you're free to wander off with your newly filled belly! read more

My mom and I went here after visiting my uncle's dentist office to get dental work done and also did a bit of shopping at Phuoc Loc Tho next door. I think I've been to this place before, except it was some different Vietnamese restaurant years ago. Anyway, mom recommended I try Hu Tieu Kho Tay Ho (#12 on the menu), which looked like a special that you can't get in a lot of places. It was okay. I liked the noodles and the peanuts and the shrimp. Though whatever that fried shrimp cake or something was, it was difficult to chew due to the fact that it was rock hard. Also not fond of the boiled little quail eggs that went into the dish. read more

Good service. Good food, good portion, reasonable price, good location with easy parking. Will return

This place is the bomb! I ordered their main combination plate (#1 on the menu) and was pleased that they haven't changed how they go about the quality, quantity, and presentation. I love the hole in the wall feel and in your face service (guy literally stands next to me after I get my menu waiting for me to order). Parking sort of sucked and I ended up parking deep into Asian garden mall's lot. 10/10 would come back if in the area! read more

Banh Cuon Tay Ho 2 - #1 is sublime - Vietnamese Near Me - Westminster, California

The food there is AMAZING! I love the bun bo hue and the bun rieu. Definitely a must try when you are near Asian Garden M

I've frequented here a few times for the banh cuon (which is my fav Vietnamese dish) over the last few years. Banh cuon itself is always light, airy and delicious, but the quality of the other add ons to the dish can be a little inconsistent, but not terrible. Nuoc mam (fish sauce) was lighter in flavor as was the chili paste you put in so I was making a bath for my banh cuon with it. We ordered the banh beo one time but would skip. The mung bean mixture was oddly sweet and there wasn't any dried shrimp. I usually get Dac Biet which has a little bit of everything. The sweet potato fritter can be too thick of fries clumped together so a little hard to eat. The mushroom, pork filling is always good and they give plenty of cha. $12.95 is reasonable to me for portion you're getting! read more

Delicious rice egg and rice rolls. Reasonable prices and delicious food. Place is neat and clean. Courteous employees. Will be back soon.

Very good Vietnamese foods and friendly service. I always visit them every time I went to Little Sai Gon

The store staff has no manner or courtesy at all. We are eating and enjoy the food and one of the staffs start mopping the floor. All we could smell is the floor cleaning solution. We mentioned to the waiter and he said the smell will go away... By then, we lost our appetite and have no desire ro eat anymore. read more

So good I forgot to take a picture! :P Tay Ho is, to me, the mainstay/de facto for Banh Cuon in the area. There are plenty of good places that offer similar, but everyone knows Tay Ho. Service is good, food is on point and consistent, and their fish sauce has a better flavor than some other places IMO. Would recommend to anyone looking to try this dish. :) read more

This hole in the wall place got a fresh upgrade inside!! Beautiful mirrors and marble, but same great tasting food. We got the Bánh Cuón Dāc Biêt Tāy Hò- special combination flour sheet roll w/shrimp tempura $13 & Bún Bò Hué Tāy Hò- vermicelli noodles with spicy beef soup $13, as well as some iced espressos with condensed milk.

I love this location since it's more spacious inside, lots of parking and they take credit cards. Food is always solid here. I love ordering the #1 without the banh cong. The fried shrimp tempura is so good with the combination flour sheets. Their fried eggrolls are refreshing with the lettuce wraps but honestly I haven't tried anything else other than their banh cuon and egg rolls. But it's so good and I keep and will be coming back! read more

What do you come here for? Rice Crepes of course! It's in the name duh! Here's a quick Vietnamese 101 lesson, although banh cuon and banh uot are ultimately the same thing, but; Banh Cuon = Rice crepes with fillings and stuffings like meat and seafood. Banh Uot= Simply just rice crepes. I have been here a few times, and they sell a variety of options but what they are really known for is banh cuon, and they have endless versions of it. Some people go for banh uot, simple rice crepes topped with bean sprouts, mint garnish and a splash of spicy sweet and tangy fish sauce. Me though? I go big or go home, I get the Banh Cuon Dac Biet Tay Ho, which is like the Big Poppa of Banh Cuon, the House Special or a sampler some would say. It comes with the simple Banh Uot, also pork and mushroom stuffed banh cuon, as well as shrimp stuffed banh cuon. It is then topped with shrimp and sweet potato tempura, a green bean tempura cake, Vietnamese leaf rolled ham and is finished with the bean sprouts, mint garnish and drizzle of fish sauce (mine is more like a mild flooding). I have a good time every time I come, but please remember, this is and old fashioned, Vietnamese, mom and pop spot. You are not going to get 5 star service but you will at least get 3 and leave with a cheap, quick, fulfilling meal. Parking is a dud here, there are two spots reserved for the restaurant, there are a few other spots but be careful some are reserved for other businesses, signs are up! Parking fills up quick, but luckily the staff service here is quick and the neighbors are a copy and print shop so cars are constantly coming and going. No long waits here! read more

Ordered to-go on the phone and the person who took my order was very short and hung up before I could ask him how long it would take for my order to be ready. He didn't ask for my name or tell me the total. It located in a small parking lot (kinda seems like a hole in the way mom n pop place?). The banh cuon I ordered was 7/10 and it came with a bunch of fried things (shrimp tempura?) that was getting soggy by the time I ate it (10 mins later). There's definitely better places for banh cuon in the area. read more

This restaurant is called Banh Cuon Tay Ho 2 and it has the same name on Google Map. But the Banh Cuon Tay Ho on Yelp is called Banh Cuon Tay Ho 4 on google map. They are selling the same food and same good quality, but I like this 2 than 4. The 4 has more fashion renovation, looks like a modern restaurant. But the 2 has more ethnic feelings. Compare the menus I took photos of from both restaurants, it looks the 4 is a little more expensive-0.25 dollars for each plate. Once I'm in little Saigon, this restaurant is always an option for me as well as Hui Oi and Brodard. I like the rolled cake, especially wrapped with the tropical leaves and mixed with the sweet chili fish sauce. The rolled cake is so soft and the flavor is that good. The fried shrimp tempura with yam is also good, but don't order the whole plate since it's already included in the rolled cake set. The whole plate will be too much to bite. I gave both 2 and 4 for 4-star or 85 in 100. read more

This place is good and clean with plenty of parking. Having the 3 combined is rare with good Vietnamese good. I get the one with the meat inside. It comes with veggies on the side and pork. Service is good enough. They serve you with a smile and the food comes pretty fast. It's usually warm and fresh which is why I like this place. Most Vietnamese places around this area are good like that- great flavor and very affordable. Banh cuon is a thin piece made out of rice paper like and stuffed with meat or just left alone and eaten with fish sauce that has been diluted with sugar, garlic, chili and lime/lemon. Usually serve with bean sprouts , hopped up cucumber and thinly sliced lecture. The drink menu (non alcoholic) is also tasty too. They have all sort of fun drinks to try ! read more

The famous OG Banh cuon place. If you want to try this dish, go here. Banh cuon is Vietnamese rice cakes with stuffing inside served with fresh lettuce and cucumber. All topped with fish sauce. You can also order the topper which is fried sweet potato and a shrimp (highly recommend) Go for the #1. That is their bread and butter banh cuon nhan thit which is the rice cake with a beef mix stuffing. I also like their shrimp filling (Tom) and also the grilled pork (thit nuong)! There are only like 2 parking spots that officially belong to the restaurant so it's tough. Also it's not visible from the road! You have to drive into the seemingly one way alleyway and get to the restaurant at the end. Go at night or on weekdays to avoid the crazy. read more

A little background on what Banh Cuon Tay Ho's specialty is. When speaking of popular Vietnamese foods, banh cuon is often the overlooked brethren dish in the pantheon of cuisines that falls depthly silent when compared to likes pho, banh mi, or banh xeo. But truth be told, it is one of the most popular breakfast choice, back in the homeland and the Vietnamese communities abroad. Banh cuon draws similarity with Chinese rice noodle dish found on most dim sum menu. Like the chicken or the egg, I don't know which dishes draw their inspiration from. Contrast to Chinese rice noodles which are served plained, with Chinese doughnuts, or shrimps inside, then drizzled over with soya sauce, what is banh coun? Banh in Vietnamese refers to a cake or bread, in this case more along the line of a steamed rice floured crepe. Cuon means roll, a cooked ground pork, finely chopped onion, shiitake mushroom, and mixed spices concoction are rolled up inside the crepe. Banh cuon is then plated with a plethora of sidekicks; this includes finely minced roasted dried shrimps, blanched bean sprouts, julienned mint and basil, julienned cucumbers, pickled carrots, tempura sweet potatoes and shrimp, deep fried onion, and cha lua, all served with a drenched complex sauce of ground or chopped garlic, sweet chili sauce (not the popular rooster brand sriracha sauce), sugar, lemon and fish sauce. Already, some may think this sounds like a busy dish, with its too many components that may overshadow or competes, but weirdly enough, it is a harmonious congress of flavors that culminate in a resolution of taste that wows the senses. Banh Cuon Tay Ho, the Tay Ho in their company's name refers to the west lake in Hanoi. I don't know if this dish was invented there or made popular there or just a name, but banh cuon is definitely a northern vietnamese dish. Banh cuon Tay Ho as restaurants, have been in Orange county, California for many years. In its heydays, it had numerous locations sprinkled all over Little Saigon. Banh Cuon Tay Ho used to be super popular, at their heights, they also branched out to selling deli meats in supermarkets. But over the years, Banh Cuon Tay Ho failed to innovate on their dishes nor have they invested and modernized the interior of their restaurants. Subsequently branches began to close. Banh Cuon Tay Ho 2, is just a remaining branch that resides next to what would be the center heart plaza of the Vietnamese Community in Southern California, Phuc Loc Tho Mall. The location has pluses and drawback. Being amongst popular shops and attractions, Banh Cuon Tay Ho retains locals and frequent visitors, by serving a familial banh cuon dish. What makes banh cuon tay ho 2 a nightmare is the parking. Its location plaza was designed by a D student in planning. Be careful of the side alley, it is a one way street. And let's be honest, too many times people disregard the sign and drive illegally through. The current vibe of this place is more attuned to an aging hole in the wall and not in a good way. They serve up a decent banh cuon, but the service needs a major overhaul. I feel they haven't acknowledge the growing foodie trend outside the Vietnamese community. Thus they failed to capitalized on the synergy for potential new clienteles. I love banh cuon, I wish I was writing this review in their golden age. I do hope that anyone who has not had banh cuon, to seek out and try it. I am giving a high rating of three stars, based solely in taking into account their past track records. They have slipped over the years and I hope constructive critics will light fires of improvements. It is a shame that they have embraced miss opportunities. Please do better.
