What a cute place! As a Little Saigon local I thought I tried everything but this place has many unique dishes. Chao la dua is something ive never tried before. It's yummy. Cha is like a Vietnamese meat loaf. Here they have more than 20 varieties. Chao is Vietnamese porridge and you can pick different proteins to put in the chao There's tons of cha options and unusual self made dry foods. The owner clearly cares deeply about the food they put out and the service is very friendly. If you're a Central Vietnamese like my mom you'll have a great time conversing in their Hue/ Nghe An accents . A Saigonese like me only understand like 80% haha. read more

I saw on the YouTube channel (thugiantuoihuutaimy) that they often film delicious and affordable restaurants, and that's how I found this place. Today I stopped by to try some food and was extremely satisfied. The food was delicious, almost all the dishes were great (my daughter loved them), and especially, the two women working here were incredibly cheerful and lovely, making me want to come back again and again. Okay, now this shop will be the best choice for me to buy gifts for my friends. Thank you very much to the staff here for being so friendly and making such delicious food. Thank you to the YouTube channel (thugiantuoiohuutaimy). read more

Noticed this place while driving to the freeway. I just saw them advertised on Yelp while getting my nails done so wanted to check them out. Stopped by here late evening so found a parking spot right away. Got a rice porridge with ground beef to go and the lady talked me into buying their beef cha. The porridge was good, beef cha was also good (or was I too hungry since it was already late (past 8:00 pm) and I still had not had my dinner yet? The lady owner sliced up the beef cha for me so I can nibble in the car. It was a tad too soft compared to other places but the flavor was good. I want to be back and try other items she had in the store. read more

I stopped by Chao & Cha for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Sahara recommended that I order the pandan rice porridge (cháo lá dứa) with Vietnamese braised frog (ếch kho gừng). It was absolutely comforting and flavorful! The porridge had a light pandan aroma and a smooth, creamy texture. The braised frog was tender and coated in a rich savory sauce with hints of ginger that paired perfectly with the warm cháo. It also came with bean sprouts, herbs, lime, and pork floss on the side so you can customize each bite. I also grabbed a fresh green cucumber sugarcane drink which was refreshing and balanced out the meal nicely. The food felt very authentic and home-style Vietnamese comfort food. The portion was generous and the flavors were spot on. If you're looking for something different from the usual pho or banh mi, this is definitely worth trying. read more

This is a new store just opened recently on Euclid St/Westminster, next to Thanh Tam sandwiches. We stopped by on a weekday afternoon around 3:00pm and there was no line. We picked a couple items for cold cut and pate to eat with baguette. I like that they offered some samples which's smart to encourage more sale. So far so good. They have lots of items in freezer and some food to go items on the counter. The lady in front is super friendly and offer suggestions. The store is super clean and parking is ok on weekdays. Will definitely come back to try other items. read more

Wow a casual place with lots of good chả (for ông) and nem (for bà) . We tried pandan porridge with eels and bò né and both were very good. Pandan porridge (which come in different proteins like chả bò, frogs..) was fragrant the eels was fresh with a side of pork floss. Bò né was better than other place because I prefer the sauce not overly sweet and they got it just right. The plate came with other meat balls too. The pate (made in house) was fresh and thankfully didn't come with the wedge of laughing cow cheese. You also get a side of fries and salad too. We will return to try other chả and nem. The owner was very sweet and accommodating. Great find of the week. read more

This is just based on the menu and food pics from the owner and the store. Was craving for some cháo & chả lụan and was in the area. Saw this and came over but it still closed, not quite done with set up yet. The store is quite big and quite nice with clean cut simple decor. Just the menu is up and the counter. The pics look great and yummy. Can't wait to give it a try once it's open. Parking is okey depending on the time of the day since the parking lot is share with the whole big plaza. read more

Went here with my family. I recommend getting the cha que and the bo lua. All packaged meat were good and high quality. They gave out free samples for you to try which was nice. I saw they also have rice porridge which I want to try next time. read more

What a fantastic find! We randomly stopped in after driving by and we were pleasantly greeted by their large selection of house made cold cuts/meat loafs and friendly staff. They have spicy and non-spicy options and samples to try. I like how the samples were pre-packed and covered in individual containers, very sanitary. The store is clean and they have their options displayed well. Everything looked good and it also tasted good. We purchased three different rolls: cha lua (smooth blend pork loaf), cha mo (fatty fried meat loaf), and the head cheese which is my favorite. I usually hate cha lua because it leaves a weird feeling in my mouth after eating it (similar to the acid in spinach) but this one was nothing like the ones you get prepacked in the grocery stores. It was sweet, soft, and super flavorful. This was a thousand times better. The cha mo was very good too as was the head cheese. We bought the non spicy head cheese so I can shared with family but next time I would get the spicy. I enjoyed everything and look forward to coming back to try their other food. read more

They had ginger slices added and optional limes and bean sprouts. Be aware that the parking is horrible. read more

I was so happy when they opened up this Chao & Cha shop just down the street from my house. It's located near the 22 freeway off of Euclid. This unique little shop provides an abundance of to go items and there's a cute little dine in area. I am sure they offer at least 12+ kinds of cha. My favorites were the pork cha, fish cha, chicken cha, banh canh with fish cha, banh cuon with different cha's. It was also our first time trying pandan chao where you can pick your preferred protein. What a treat! The owner was very sweet and offered us numerous samples also. Will definitely be returning to try more! read more

Came here at 3pm to order cha muc (squid). There were 4 or 5 people infront of us. The guy asked for banh mi cha muc and they said they ran out. Then the guy asked if they plan to make anymore and they said "we are done. Not making anymore. Only frozen cha muc left." A bunch of us got pissed and left. Very bad customer service. So they stopped making it because they got lazy. They still had frozen cha muc left but decided not to make them anymore. read more

Mình mua thử Chả bò ăn không dai ngọt quá , còn chả cá bột quá , không có vị cá :-( , giá cao , .

I saw that this place has pandan cháo (porridge) and I've never had that before, so I gave it a try. The taste is really unique because I'm used to eating pandan in desserts but having it in a savory dish brings out a different flavor profile. They also have a variety of delicious chả (meat rolls), like beef, pork, and fish that I put in soups that my mom cooks (see videos I posted: beef balls in bún bò Huế, fish cake in bún riêu). However my favorite thing there is the homemade pate (fragrant and creamy) which I just eat with warm baguette. I will be a regular here for a while. You should definitely try this place when you're in the area! read more

Today I went in thinking I'd just grab an order of chao to try, but I decided to also get a sugarcane drink and some cha lua for my mom. They did not disappoint! The chao was delicious!
