    First time to Bun Vit. I had steam chicken. Very good. I would come back. Very delicious

    Vermicelli soup noodle with duck meat and side salad.
    Katie B.

    This is my duck soup for the soul. The broth is clear, fragrant and flavorful. Just a simple broth with vermicelli noodle and bamboo shoots to heal the brokenness from a hards day work. It comes with the tenderest duck meat on a bed of salad on the side. For fresh food, the service is Quick with a capital Q. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small family owned restaurant with just enough room to get people in and out without a long wait.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Decor is simple, place is clean and tidy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Let's eat at Bun Vit!

    Bun Vit is a small restaurant...saw the crowd and decide to write my name down to eat. The restaurant is a no-frills spot that's well known for their steamed chicken noodle soup -- there's also a duck version. After sitting and given the menu -- several options all focused on the chicken. Simple food done right. I understood and the food lives up to the hype. The broth is clean, comforting, and full of flavor without being too heavy. The chicken is tender and simple. It's the kind of bowl that feels homemade and satisfying. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself is pretty small, so seating can feel a bit tight during busy hours.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking is also limited, so you might have to circle around or wait for a spot if it's peak time.

    Oh my gosh my favorite place in OC for sure. Love loved every fish from here. The chicken, soup, duck porridge, crispy rice for extra ten min, and salad everything was amazing tasted and sooo good. I will definitely come back here again. The service can work on the little better, the servers were just ok.

    Chicken chao
    Kevin T.

    The food here is good! Steamed chicken and a bowl of chao really hits the soul. The ingredients are fresh and flavorful. The service is good, we were one of the first tables to be seated. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's rustic inside and there's not plenty of seating available.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There is a waitlist sometimes especially during lunch.

    If you are ever craving Mien (clear noodle soup), you should definitely come here! They basically only sell Mien, Bun (vermicelli rice noodles), and Com (rice) here and you have a choice of getting it with duck (vit) or chicken (ga). Since duck is in the restaurant name, we had to try the duck! We got a Bun Vit and a Mien Vit. The noodles were al dente and the soup was delish! The side salad goi had only cabbage, cilantro and fried shallots. We realized there were a jar of onions on the side you can add in. We really appreciated the fresh onions and fresh chili paste as condiments. The fish sauce was seasoned perfectly-- right amount of umami, sweetness and acidity! I brought my mother who is picky with Vietnamese food, and she praised their fish sauce and the freshness of the duck, as well as the duck being cooked perfectly! We will definitely come back!

    #7. Grilled/Steamed Rice with Duck Salad ($15.99). 8/10/2025

    Just wanted to write a quick update on my to-go experience. I ordered #8. Grilled/Steamed Rice with Duck Salad with leg meat ($16.99) and it was packed very well. Nothing was leaking and everything still tasted fresh after a 40 minute ride home. Ordering over the phone was slightly challenging due to the language barrier. But it worked out in the end. The parking lot here is so frustrating if you don't come early on the morning because its so limited.

    This place absolutely blew me away. I was thoroughly impressed by the quality of the food. We ordered congee with duck breast as well as chicken breast, and it was prepared very well. They had a ginger sauce that was kind of sweet and kind of savory at the same time! I felt like I could drink the sauce because of how good it was. The duck breast was very juicy very tender and not dry at all. It had so much flavor in it and I really wanted more after I was done with it. They also had a rice plate version with the duck breast. On the rice plate, they had some pickled veggies and I ate that all up. The price of everything was very reasonable to me. I didn't think it was out of the ordinary at all. I believe everything was around like $15-$20 so not too crazy to ask for. The service was also very great. The bathrooms were clean. The interior of the restaurant was very clean as well. The parking was also not hard to advocate. There was enough parking for the time that we went there, which was around noon. I think this place is located near Seafood Cove 2. so the location is great because there's a few other restaurants to check out and many other drinks places to check out too!

    came here after seeing a review on tiktok and wanted to try it out, my family and I got the porridge with duck salad and also the rice plate with chicken salad. We really enjoyed the food and that everything was flavored pretty well and portions were fair. I enjoyed the fact that the salad was also dressed on the bottom of the duck. It wasn't just plain vegetables. You also get free ice or hot tea when you dine in. Overall, I would definitely come back. I enjoyed the food and they also cut the meats in a way that's easy to eat. Service was quick, and all of the orders were made correctly, [[HIGHLIGHT]]ambience is updated and clean inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ample parking is available in the lot

    Salad
    Sandy G.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]There isn't many tables inside and that is why it's easy to get a long queue outside waiting for the table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I stopped by on a weekday evening and it isn't crowded but the servers seem very busy running back and forth. The foods are solid and the portions are great. I would recommend ordering half a duck (which will get you complimentary salad) then just order two or three bowls of noodles depending on your party size, rather than get an individual for everyone. When you order half a duck, they seem to put various parts of the duck so it gets more diverse. Keep in mind that they charge a dollar each for the extra fish sauce.

    Glass noodles with tender bamboo shoots
    Betty G.

    Bun Vit Thanh Da. They specialize in all kinds of duck meat. I'm not too crazy about duck so I ordered the glass noodles with chicken and bamboo shoots. It was served piping and very delicious. I requested chicken breast with no skin and they did it exactly as ordered. The chicken was nice and juicy and not dry at all. It also comes with a side order of cabbage and ginger fish sauce. Everything was so good. There was a long line at the door though so be prepared to wait for a bit. Will be back soon with the family.

    Number 1 - Duck noodle
    Jennifer T.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pretty spacious restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food tasted pretty clean and healthy. The chicken and duck were pretty juice and most unlike some other places. The our server was also patient and attentive when we first walked in.

    Bun Vit
    Kelly H.

    Bun Vit Thanh Da is a solid go-to spot if you're craving bun and chao vit/ga. You can really tell the duck and chicken are fresh. The meat comes out tender, juicy, and full of flavor, not dry at all. The nuoc mam dipping sauce is perfectly balanced, not overly salty or sweet, which makes each bite even better. And the chao vit is delicious, comforting, savory, and done just right. Simple menu, well executed dishes, and quality ingredients. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely a popular spot for a reason.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will be back when the bun + chao vit craving hits again.

    One of my favorite Vietnamese seafood restaurants in the area. If you like anything and everything…read moreshellfish (claims, scallops, escargot, etc), then this is the place for you! Have been to this restaurant many times, and food is always consistent! Came visit to the restaurant last week, and ordered my favorite Grilled Escargot with Garlic Butter and Peppercorn, Grilled Scallops with Cheese, and my all-time favorite Chilean Sea Bass hot pot! The grilled escargots are a must-have when visiting this place! These are perfectly grilled with rich garlic butter for sweetness, and with a slight kick of spiciness from the peppercorn. Don't forget to also dip the escargot meat with black pepper and a few squeeze of fresh lime juice! If you like melted cheese, then the grilled scallops with cheese would be the perfect match. Each scallop is covered melted cheese and comes sizzling on a hot plate when ordered! Last but certainly not least, my favorite dish of this restaurant is the Chilean Sea Bass hot pot. The order comes with your own tabletop gas stove, along with a hot pot filled with a tom yum like sour soup base. For ingredients, it also includes a plate with slices of pineapple, quarter cut fresh tomato slices, fresh bean sprouts, rice noodles, and a full plate of large pieces of Chilean Sea Bass. Just put all the ingredients in the hot pot and let it cook for 5-10mins on high, I promise you it is one of the best soups you will ever have! Service is good as always. This place always seems to be busy, so you may have to be on the waitlist during certain business hours (eg holidays, prime dinner time, etc). Parking wise, the restaurant is located in a busy plaza, and so you may have to drive around a few times before finding an open spot. However as I said earlier, it's worth the wait. Highly recommended.

This Vietnamese fusion seafood restaurant specializes in fresh seafood and hot pots. We started with the razor clams, which were the standout of the meal. They were incredibly flavorful and paired with a delicious sauce that had us wanting every last bite. The spicy scallops were another solid choice with just the right amount of heat. The escargot was a little chewy, but the savory sauce made up for it. For our main dishes, we ordered the Tom Yum seafood hot pot, which was just okay. We also had the deep-fried tilapia, which was cooked perfectly--crispy on the outside. It's hard to go wrong with anything deep-fried here.
