    canh bún
    Angeline N.

    Oh my gosh I am obsessed with this place and it really takes me back to my roots. They have a ton of Vietnamese noodle soups that I grew up loving, and all of it tastes super authentic. It's a pretty small restaurant but I'm always so shocked that it's almost always empty when I come here because everything is so good, from the food to the service and the vibes! I got their canh bún. It tasted exactly like a home cooked meal. I loved how flavorful the broth was, how fresh the veggies tasted, and how generous they were with the toppings. All the toppings were so good! The noodles were also soft and the dish was just so well put-together. If you are craving authentic Vietnamese soups, this is definitely the spot for you!!

    Bap Kitchen This is a small, clean spot that feels comfortable and not cramped. The food overall is good and enjoyable, though nothing really stood out as amazing. Flavors were solid and easy to eat, not too heavy. We ordered the Hai Phong crab noodle soup, steamed rice cakes, bánh mì with phá lấu, and grilled pig cheeks with chao . Everything tasted fine and met expectations, but some dishes felt a bit safe rather than memorable. Service was friendly and attentive, which I appreciated. Parking is also easy with a spacious lot, which is a nice bonus. Overall, a good place for a casual meal if you're in the area, but probably not a destination spot. Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5

    Bun Mam
    Elle R.

    Service was fantastic and fast. I am a huge fan of bun mam and this bowl was full of protein that was perfectly cooked and various types of fish cakes, eggplants that was very unique and tasty. Just the right amount of veggies to go with the food. The tea with popping boba was an excellent finish. The space is clean and well maintained. My friend has the bun bo and that was also packed with meat. Broth was light full of umami. Will be back. Def recommend.

    They have very good lẩu dê and dê hấp, good food good price, service is fast and friendly. I will definitely come back for their goat hotpot

    Quán ăn ngon, sạch sẽ, nhân viên nhiệt tình. Chủ quán cute. Nên ăn thử bún mắm 10/10. Bún đậu mắm tôm ngon, nhớ về hương vị Hà Nội. Service 10/10

    Soup w crab meats, noodles
    Jeesoun S.

    It's been a while I didn't go to Garden Grove unless I needed something for the gardening. We like the nursery in GG. Today I planned to go there and I found this restaurant by accident. I guess it was former Chinese restaurant in the past. There were lots of customers around 12. I am used to eat Pho rice noodles, spring rolls once in a while. That was all I knew about the Vietnamese foods. When I went over the menu, it was tough to understand what ingredients were there in the soup or rice dishes. So hard....for me and my hubby. However, we chose Chinese fried rice w sausages, eggs and hot soup w crab meats, some noodles. Thank God!!! Right choices for the first time!!! The fried rice looked so flavorful w big shrimps. It was heavenly good. For the soup w crab meats, there were crab meat balls, tofu, tons of crab meats w something crispy and chewy veggies like water Cresson. I love love it!! The broth was so flavorful, made me warm, relaxed. I want to try it next time for sure. We had a great lunch time to discover the new ambiance and new cuisines. Pros Price, quality, service: fast service, affordable price, 4 stars Ambiance: casual Cons Menu: so tough to understand for non Vietnamese customers Sauces: unclear what is hot, medium hot, or mild chili sauces for the dipping the meat balls in the soup for me. Overall, we liked the foods. Definitely come soon to try other foods.

    If you are looking for Vietnamese soup noodles that aren't the usual Pho or Bun Bo Hue or Vermicelli, this spot offers a large variety of Viet staples with interesting meat choices that aren't super mainstream. Probably the one dish I would recommend above others is the Bun Dau Mam Tom with a variety of fish cakes, tofu, pork, and fermented shrimp paste to dip them in. It is a rare item not served at many Viet locations in the US and if you like funky tastes, then this will be right up your alley.

    Chinese fried Rice
    Gaetano S.

    I discovered this new Vietnamese restaurant in Korean mall. I know this place, it was Chinese restaurant for a while. The generation is getting younger, changing. The parents generation is retired, baby boomer. That is why the restaurant looks very fresh, young. They have rice, soup menus, including hot pot. My wife said, hard to understand the menu, more Vietnamese language not clear English descriptions on the menu. But we found Chinese fried rice w chewy sausages and crab soup w noodles. The service was so fast. Almost right away we got the fried rice and crab soup. Wow...looked amazing. The portion is big enough for 2 people, very tasty. For the fried rice, very crunchy, well balanced w sausages, big shrimps. My wife had crab soup, she loved it. Made warm, sweaty, just like the comfort soup in the winter. Overall, the service and price are very good. The portion is huge. The broth is rich, lots of green veggies, tons of crab meats. She said, I can't stop eating this soup. Sooooo good. We will definitely come again. Will try other Vietnamese cuisines beside fried rice. Hopefully they can upgrade the menu clearer in English descriptions w pictures. Just like us, we don't know about the Vietnamese foods well except Pho, spring rolls.

    Bun rieu
    John T.

    Ordered Bun Mốc as bun Bo hue wasn't available. First time trying Bun Mốc in general, so I was prepared for pork paste balls. The broth is quite nice and packed with a lot proteins. You get mostly large 4 piece of pork paste balls (kind of Luke warm temp) 2 pieces of fried cha chien , and some spare riblets which were tender fall off the bone. You get some mini toppings as fried pork chicharones. The blanched noodles are quite inconsistent as I found some fragments to be under cooked. Overall- you get bang for your buck on getting the proteins in. Be advised if you're here for on a 30 minute lunch break you won't make it. Upon getting seated - You will endure at least 10 window of waiting to place an order. Recommend the Bun Rieu over Bun Mốc.

    My dad's go to place for party food to-go- he especially loves the Lau de/goat stew and think it's the best in OC. As a sit in restaurant, it's a bit small but that only makes the food taste better. I got the bun bo hue and bun dau mam Tom to share and both were so so good. I love the extra spice on the side to add into my bun bo and the mam Tom sauce was extra fishy and so great to dip with the variety of cha. This is my new go to viet restaurant!

    Lẫu Mắm quá xuất sắc.  Ăn tại tiệm hay mang về đều Ngọn. Nhân viên phục vụ nhã nhặn lễ phép . Triệu Like.

    Bún đậu mắm tôm & lẫu mắm = Tuyệt vời không đối thủ. Best Hotpot in town. Dine-in or togo is available.

    Bún mắm

    One of the best bún mắm in OC. It has all the good ingredients like squid, crispy pork, shrimp, grilled eggplants, peppers stuffed with pork, fish cakes. So yummy and the broth is delicious. It's on the sweeter side which I like. They give the tamarind sauce too. My favorite place to get this dish. The girl server is friendly and helpful.

    Original sticky rice, xôi mặn
    Betty G.

    Ordered another sticky rice dish here today. Basically the same one, xoi man, but without the Chinese sausage & pork roll, and substitute with chicken. They never skimp on the protein here, which is great. However, my only comment is, Bap Kitchen should put very little oil in the dish or on the side. It was too greasy at the bottom and the sticky rice is totally soaked and drowned in oil. :(

    Old break, rebaked so its too hard to break/ bite

Nearby a fav viet comfort food place (Hien Thành) I frequent, Da Viên stood. I had seen it before but was usually too full to stop by. Well today was the day and they did not disappoint. I told the cashier it was my first time there so I needed guidance on recommendations. I knew I wanted a power punch yet flavorful coffee. She suggested the egg cream or ube cream and I was also eyeing their signature marble drip but she said it was lighter bc there was more milk. She asked if I wanted a sampling, uh YES!! She gave me 2 clean separate spoons so I could savor and discern my selection. The space is thoughtfully curated, modern and clean. Staff is friendly and helpful, service great! It was packed so immediately I knew it had to be good. And the customers were right, the ube cream coffee was magnificent. Suffice to say, I'm coming back!!

Their desserts are amazing, but their breakfast burrito with that green sauce? ADDICTION. Straight addiction. The only downside is that this place gets SO busy, especially in the afternoon, that finding a seat can be difficult. Come early if you actually want to sit and hang out.

Maybe because that's the vast amount of digital cafe projects happening at this time of day reminds me of my time in Panera. It's huge! So even with all the traffic they are able to handle a large volume of orders, and I can sit comfortably in the ambience of a chill soundtrack. I ordered a Strawberry & Cream Matcha and Cookies & Cream cookie hoping for something sweet. I'm glad I got the cookie because the creamy beverage was more like strawberry water. I'm surprised to see this combo not hit in such a popular location considering the strawberry matcha I'm nearly veteran in tasting. I didn't expect much from the cookie but for a total of $14 and change the bakery portion size is outperforming the barista. Remember the exact price you paid if you want to log into the wifi because they have a two-factor authentication to further confuse your senses. At least the project patrons seem familiar with the run of show here. I never expect much from service at coffee shops but considering my surprise about the wifi it feels customary to welcome guests to take note of the detail. Additionally, and most importantly to me, when I get an iced beverage I usually get it in a plastic cup. I'm surprised they dispense these in a normal to go coffee cup (with lid, not pictured so you could see what the order was). All that work and I don't get to see. My order reads "Take Out" although I never elected that and maybe that's what the standard of operations is here since I don't see a single other kind of container. Are all orders "Take Out?" Why notate if there's no "Dine In?" I guess I'm just used to cold beverages handled differently. I'm sure the difference wouldn't have affected the watery taste. Considering the sheer operational power of the local's favorite spot, I suppose there's only enough left to expense a one-cup show. The iPad menus at the register feel like wasted potential or overkill but in a house this big, the iPads lying around are bound to entertain its target audience. Overall, I'd say this coffee house is O'Kei.
