    Small little tiny shop that specializes in banh xeo and would say the best in the near area!!! Three main types of Vietnamese crepes: pork and shrimp, vegetarian and fish. All are superb. -Can order bean sprouts on the side that are slightly cooked. -Can call ahead to order. -Large size served in pizza boxes with a small sauce fish container and large bags of super fresh greens including lettuce, mint, etc -small parking lot

    This was our first time here and wasn't quite sure what to expect since I don't often eat Vietnamese food besides pho. There's a parking lot located in the back and the restaurant is located right at the corner. You can tell that it's a traditional family owned restaurant when you see that it doesn't look that renovated and seems like their family (with kids) works behind the counter haha. It's very nostalgic but you know you're in good hands and the food must be goood. They don't have a lot on their menu tbh, so they really specialize in the banh xeo. I'm pretty unfamiliar with it so I thought it was like an omelette? I was wrong haha. We ordered rather quickly since the service here is quite efficient. We didn't wait too long for our order to arrive as well, so it was pretty quick. My bf is half Vietnamese so I was following his lead how to eat this. Break the banh xeo and wrap it and dip it. Overall it was pretty good! There's also surprisingly a lot of shrimp and bean sprouts. I would say I wish it had more of a filling, or more ingredients to add to make it more filling. It feels like the fried could balance out with the lettuce wraps but it still honestly tasted more 'fried'. It does give a nice crunch, but I feel like just eating this only, I feel like it does get a bit dull. Kinda wish we could order this and something else to share! Overall, my bf also said it's kinda pricey for what it is? Which I thought the same too. It's nice but not thaaaat nice to be $18.

    Took a friend out to try this Vietnamese restaurant, particularly the "Banh xeo" or Vietnamese crepes. Ambiance - felt like a small family run operation with warm smiles and energy to provide good service. The crepes were delicious with a good amount of fresh herbs and veggies to accompany. The sauce, was something my friend kept raving about - how it rounds out the dish. We also split an order of the dry noodles and it was delicious as well! Definitely, ideal to go with friends and share in some delicious Vietnamese delicacies like the Bánh Xeo.

    First time trying banh xeo and it was delicious! Very unassuming on the outside but don't let that deter you. They put a lot of bean sprouts inside which I personally don't mind but my husband was not a fan. The crepe was super crispy and worked really well with the fresh greens and fish sauce. I would definitely come back and they their other flavors.

    Hidden Gem for Authentic Bánh Xèo! Don't let the humble exterior fool you -- this little hole-in-the-wall serves some of the best bánh xèo I've ever had. The place isn't fancy or newly renovated, but once the food hits the table, you'll understand why it's always busy. The crepes are crispy, flavorful, and packed with fresh herbs and fillings. Everything tasted homemade and authentic, like something you'd get in Vietnam. If you're looking for atmosphere, this isn't it -- but if you're here for real flavor, this spot is absolutely worth it. Hidden gem status for sure

    Very happy to see this place is still open. I used to come here often as a kid when I lived in San Gabriel. It's very easy to miss and a hole in the wall type of place. You may heard of banh xeo to go in a pizza box. This is the place. Super simple menu but super delicious. and it was also exciting to see that "Beautiful Boy" starring Steve Carell filmed one of their scenes here! The server was also very nice and honest. I asked if one is good enough to share and instead of trying to make an extra sale, he asked how hungry I was and suggested I order 1 for now and if anything, I can order another if I'm still hungry. Also a plus, they have beer :)

    FOOD I thought the noodle dishes (especially the duck one) were delicious but the Banh Xeo is where they really shine. Everyone at my table agreed that we wish we filled up more on the Banh Xeo and less on everything else. If you've got a big party though, definitely try the noodles! SERVICE The lady who served us was so kind. My friend wanted a drink and couldn't decide. Our server made recommendations and even told my friend that she'll give him a refund if he didn't like her recommendations. She checked in on us throughout the meal and made sure our glasses were full and that we enjoyed our food. LOCATION There's a small parking lot in the back and street parking in the area. The restaurant itself isn't large and feels like a homey mom and pop shop. It looks like Steve Carell filmed something here a few years back and they have photos of him in the restaurant and with the owners plastered all over the walls, which I thought was really cute! It's definitely not the best for huge parties, but we saw several parties of 2-4 here and each table got great service.

    The famous banh xeo everyone talks about. I wanted to try after seeing this on SGV eats. It comes in a pizza box which I thought was very charming. The banh xeo is crispy, flavorful, and huge!! I do wish they gave more seafood, but the flavor is there. I also got their mung bean drink which is a chunkier versions of 7 leaves. It's so good! Can't wait to come back!

    This is The place to get authentic Vietnamese Banh Xeo with the extra crispy crepe. I love how everything's provided and arranged in a nice little to-go box. Delicious nuoc cham is provided with an abundance of veggies. Service is quick and the workers are extremely kind. Please notice there is a merchant fee added when paying with credit card.

    There are no shortage of GREAT Vietnamese food to Banh Xeo in SoCal. But believe me, you have not had GREAT Banh Xeo until you've tried Banh Xeo Quan!!! Absolutely the BEST Banh Xeo you will ever have.. it is perfectly crispy with a very slight chew, flavorful with perfectly balanced ingredients and flavors. Oh, and their house made fish sauce is also oh - so- good. Which they also sells for $15 per bottle. Excellent and a must try whenever you're in the area!!

    Duck Noodle Soup Banh Xeo  Prawn with steam rice
    Cho L.

    A hole in the wall place in Rosemead you can't miss if you love Banh Xeo and some other rare viet dishes. Duck Noodle Soup, Banh Xeo , and Prawn with steam rice are my go-to. The prawn is hella juicy and the sauce is crack ! The owner is always friendly and food comes out quickly. Parking is in the back and plenty of street parking. Don't get discouraged by the look for the restaurant. This place is hidden gem.

    Traditional Bánh xeo
    Sue I.

    A quaint small restaurant with the BEST banh xeo - Vietnamese crepe, in SoCal. I ordered the traditional banh xeo which came with shrimp, pork, mushrooms, and onions. There's a generous portion of fresh veggies with sesame leaves, basil leaves, lettuce, mustard leaves, mint, etc. the produce is high quality and very fresh as if it was picked from the garden that day. So what makes this delicious? It's an eggs crepe with a higher egg to flour ratio. It's light and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It's a lighter, crispy omelet for context. Not pictured was the duck soup. The duck soup has a generous portion of shiitake mushrooms, bok choy and a lip smacking marinated duck leg. The BROTH WAS AMAZING, umami flavors of licorice or star anise with sweet duck flavor. To top it all off, the service was quick and friendly. Keep in mind this is a small business and it doesn't look like much. But as they say, the best places to eat are the hole in the walls at an unassuming location. A truly hidden gem. There's a small parking lot in the back or street parking is available. Bon appetit yelpers!

    Great hole in the wall place known for the bahn xeo. Located on the corner of a street in Rosemead, they never changed the etching on the door or windows, so it still says it's a donut shop. I love it. Super friendly staff that made us feel so welcomed. We go the bahn xeo of course. It was huge and came with a side of veggies in a bag. The sauce it came with is actually a little bit sweet. I got a Vietnamese coffee and that thing was creeaammy. Overall, a great experience and the food was delicious.

    I remembered coming here with my mom when I was a kid and am kind of amazed that it has survived…read moreand thrived all these years later. Since this is still one of my mom's favorite casual restaurants (says a lot since she's a tough customer), I decided to make two consecutive visits on a Friday morning right when they open at 10 a.m. They already had a good amount of people dining in, and they turnover the tables quickly. I got their Bun Rieu (no pork blood & half vermicelli) and a single egg roll my first time back and it was the biggest bowl I've ever been served. It was delicious and they do not skimp on the protein. I love how they gave me a boatload of proper Vietnamese veggies/herbs and fermented shrimp paste alongside it. Most Vietnamese restaurants nowadays serve bastardized versions of a veggie/herb plate with their soup noodles to appease a devolved palette. Second time I was here, I got their dry combination egg & tapioca soy sauce noodles with the soup on the side and an order of a single egg roll. Man, do I miss this dish especially when it is served authentically. The bowl came with shrimps, thinly sliced pork, ground pork, a fried shrimp crisp, & quail eggs. But the flavor bomb comes from bits of fried shrimp, bacon fat, & shallots. Pro tip: balance the sweetness of the soy sauce noodles with the pickled jalapeños within their condiment array. The bowl of soup that this comes with is a whole other meal with a giant pork bone (how it is traditionally served) and a bunch of fish cake in it. This was my ratatouille moment when I transported back to my childhood. I can't wait to come back and work through their menu.

    There's always a crowd waiting to be seated at this restaurant. Is this place really all that good?…read more So I decided to check it out with my friends. I ordered their pork chop rice with their meat casserole and shrimp paste with tofu skin - and my friend ordered their pho. And... it was so good. Both the dishes were well presented and tasted authentic. Service is good. Honestly I understand what the hype was. Come to this place and check it out. The food is good. No frills just good!

    Worth the Parking Struggle!…read more The only downside to trying this new spot? The parking! We thought Summer Rolls in Temple City had a rough parking situation... this one somehow topped it! Around 7 PM, the plaza was absolutely packed with so many cute restaurants, so we ended up parking on the street. Thankfully, dinner made the extra walk completely worth it. We're huge Summer Rolls fans, so I've been wanting to try this place since it opened, and tonight was finally the night! #36 Charbroiled Pork Shoulder with Shrimp Cake & Shredded Pork $16.50 Rating: 9/10 Let me tell you... the char on this pork was phenomenal! It had that beautiful smoky flavor that only comes from perfectly grilled meat. Huge kudos to the chef because this was honestly one of the best charbroiled pork dishes I've had. Not too much fat in it, so it was perfect. But can we also take a moment to appreciate the broken rice? I'm usually not the biggest rice dish person because most places simply serve regular steamed rice... but this broken rice? It could honestly un-break a broken heart. It was light, fluffy, and absolutely delicious. It paired so perfectly with that smoky pork that I found myself finishing every last grain without even realizing it. And one more thing... BEWARE of the spicy sauté sauce! I repeat... do NOT scoop a giant spoonful onto your rice or your Bún Bò Huế like I confidently did with my 2 spoonfuls of rice since we were sharing! That thing has some serious kick! But once my taste buds recovered... wow, it hit HARD in the best way possible. It added so much depth and flavor that I kept going back for more. I've honestly never had a Vietnamese spot with a spicy sauté sauce quite like this, and it definitely hit the spot! Although it isn't your traditional cơm tấm loaded with all the usual sides, this restaurant puts a more modern spin on the dish. There may be fewer components on the plate, but every bite was packed with flavor. I'd honestly rank their charbroiled pork even above Summer Rolls, and that's saying a lot! #5 Nem Spring Rolls $14.00 Rating: 9.5/10 If you're coming here and skipping these... you're doing yourself a disservice! The spring rolls and their crack sauce are still every bit as amazing as I remember. I've been eating at the original Nem Nuong Ninh Hoa across from Rosemead High School since 2009, and it honestly makes me so happy that this family-owned business has kept the same incredible recipe all these years. Over 20 years later, they've truly mastered it, carrying the recipe into Summer Rolls & now Nem. Love this family dynamic secret. I even met the owner, Mai, during our visit. We both looked at each other and laughed because we thought the other looked familiar. Maybe it's because I've been coming to the original location since my high school days! She was incredibly sweet and welcoming, which made the experience even better. As much as Summer Rolls has been our go-to these past few years... I think they're going to have to share the spotlight now. We'll definitely be coming back because my mission is officially to work my way through this entire menu! The service was warm and friendly, the restaurant is modern, beautiful, and spotless, and overall this was such a wonderful experience. Happy eats!

    Pretty Trang tasty. Get it?!…read more Today, I stopped by for a Bon Rieu, Nem Cuom, and a House Special iced tea. Service: Service was short and the entire wait took 5 minutes. That's right, 5 minutes. Although I did go around 9:50AM so there wasn't a line nor another party in the dining area. Food: I woke up craving Vietnamese and this place didn't disappoint. The Bon Rieu had the depth of flavor that I crave. Honestly, I judge most Vietnamese pho restaurants by their Bon Rieu because some places simply use seafood powder in their stock to fake it. What results is a very thinly flavored broth that has very little umami. Bon Rieu should have THE MOST umami of any soup dish because of its tomato and crab base. That's how you can tell if a place is cutting corners. The Nem Cuom is huge and the dipping sauce is generous. The House Special Tea is reminiscent of a passion fruit green tea from a boba place. Sweetened just enough to not be saccharine. Ambiance: Quite small. I believe one of their main issues may be parking during peak hours as it shares a tiny parking lot with many other businesses. HOWEVER, neighborhood parking is plentiful and just around the corner past the Sheridan Hotel and Starbucks. Round the corner and you'll find plenty of parking throughout the day.

It is a nicely stacked bowl that has everything but the kitchen sink in it - roast pork belly, catfish, squid, eggplant, and stuffed jalapeno with fried fish cake. Very filling and reasonably priced! The only reason I gave this place a 4 instead of 5 rating is because you can only order certain items from the menu when they open. I wanted to get some Chinese food to-go for my husband, but was told by the server that the other items were only available beginning at 10 am, which is odd to me.

I came by on a Friday at 7pm for a dinner (weekend before Mother's Day) and was able to get seated in 15 minutes. They have a Yelp waitlist but you must go in person to join the waitlist. There's a spacious parking lot but there's rarely any spots available and will require you to wait for a free one. The interior is honestly very pretty. It's decorated with overhead chandeliers with bright lights and marble tables. When your table is ready, they also give you a tray full of chopsticks, napkins, and forks. Each table also has hoisin, sriracha, chili sauce, and another sauce I'm not too sure about. After we ordered, I got my pho da biet maybe 5 minutes after. The cha gios also came out a few minutes after too. Unfortunately, my boyfriend's com tam was forgotten about until after I devoured my pho. We even asked them about it in the middle and it was checked on but we weren't updated and thought they had went ahead and cancelled it but it still came out. No biggy, we packed it to-go since we basically split the pho da biet. Food: Pho da biet (9.5/10): The pho was soooo delicious. It was meaty with a little bit of sweetness to it. This is one of the few places where I don't feel the need to sauce down my pho to enjoy it. There's a good amount of meat in here. If you're a tendon enjoyer, there's about 3 big chunks in here. I love the way they separate everything. If you order this, it comes with the stone bowl at no additional costs. They separate the noodles and ribeye on the side and let you "decorate" it yourself. There was also a good amount of noodles in here. Com tam (7.9/10): I thought that this one was just okay. We got the grilled pork and grilled pork chop and I thought that the meats were cooked perfectly. There was a nice char to the meats and it was seasoned deliciously. It came with a lot of rice and a side of soup to enjoy! I did enjoy this fish sauce more than the one that came with the egg rolls. Overall, I wish this dish came out the same time as the pho so we could've enjoyed it together. Cha gio/Imperial Rolls (7/10): I love egg rolls but this one didn't really stand out to me. It comes with a good amount of vegetables that you can use to wrap your egg rolls in. I wish the fish sauce that came with this was more salty. Maybe it was that day, but I couldn't really tell what was inside the filling. It was all mushed in together instead of different layers. The skin was very thin and crispy which I really liked!

    I have been coming to Nem Nuong Khánh Hòa for years and don't see a lot of people coming here. It…read moreis ran by your Vietnamese aunty and uncle and their food is authentic. Their prices have not changed in years and the portions remain the same versus shrinkflation. Their menu is not that big but it has your essential Vietnamese dishes. Today I ordered the banh beo bi, vermicelli with nem nuong and egg rolls, nem nuong coun and che ba mau. Banh beo bi are rice cakes topped with shredded pork. It comes with chilies and fish sauce for you to pour on top. The rice cakes are served warm and are super smooth and soft. The thai chilies it comes with are spicy so don't use too much. The vermicelli with nem nuong and egg rolls comes with a slab of meat and a whole egg roll. The bottom are the noodles and mix of veggie and herbs. The nem nuong is sweetened charbroiled pork that is grilled. Think of a sweet meat ball. The egg rolls are super crispy and filled with meat. The noodles go well with the fish sauce and there are a lot of veggies inside. The nem nuong coun is a spring roll that's wrapped in rice paper. It has the meat and lettuce wrapped inside and comes with a dipping sauce. I believe the sauce is made with ground shrimp. For $8 for 3 rolls it is a steal compared to other restaurants. If you are craving Brodards in OC this place can satisfy your craving. Their che ba mau which is a 3 bean dessert has a lot of beans inside topped with coconut milk and shaved ice. It is the person drink to finish your meal and it is not too sweet.

Com Tam is decent, rice texture is on point. Pork chop is marinated well but not enough lemongrass flavor, tender and not dry at all. Baked egg was good but not amazing, seemed like it missing shredded wood ear mushroom. Che Ba Mau by far hands down the worst I've had. Red bean wasn't soft, outer shell/skin was still pretty tough. Not much mung bean either after stirring it literally for about 4 seconds the mung bean basically disintegrated into the liquid. The liquid.. watered down skim milk, not a trace of coconut flavor anywhere. I didn't know you can mess up Che Ba Mau until I had it from here.

We end up getting: - Bánh Bèo - Nem Nướng Cuốn - Cơm Tấm King Special Combo (10 Items) - Cơm Tấm Bò Nướng with Chả Giò Tôm - Passion Fruit Drink - Pennywort Drink The staffs here were friendly and welcoming. The place is kinda nice. Nothing too fancy. The dishes that we tried were good. And the drinks were refreshing. Glad we discovered this restaurant. Will definitely come back to try my other favorite dishes.

I ordered egg rolls and the Pho Dac Biet. The egg rolls came out first. Fresh from the fryer with lettuce, herbs and the nuoc mam/fish sauce. I ended up fishing that on my own (first meal of the day haha). I was wondering where my pho was. I flagged down the server and he seemingly forgot. He rushed to the kitchen to get that going and it came out within a few minutes. Broth check first. It was light and had flavor. Didn't need to add hot sauce or hoisin sauce. Dressed up the pho with the herbs and went at it. Finished that as well. Pretty extensive menu. Fresh food. Overall, a nice place to grab some Vietnamese food.

I've only dined in a few times because it's always crowded and usually has a long wait, so I typically order my food to go. I enjoy both the combination pho and the chicken pho. The broth is rich and flavorful, and their egg rolls are also very good. On my last visit, I ordered a rice plate with pork chop, egg rolls, and shrimp paste. The dish was tasty. The pork chop was well seasoned and tender. They included two egg rolls and two pieces of shrimp paste, which I thought was generous. I just wish the pork chop portion had been a little larger. The rice was also delicious and had a buttery flavor. The meal was enough for two people to share. Prices are a bit higher compared to other pho restaurants, but the food quality is consistently good. Customer service was great. I placed my order online, and it was ready when I arrived.
