The egg coffee was very, very good and the lemongrass chicken banh mi was reasonably priced and yummy - although a bit too much sauce, next time I'll ask for less. Good overall and would come back especially for coffee. Service could be a bit more attentive. read more

Solid Vietnamese restaurant in seaside. The pork rice plate I got was a little too salty for my liking but the portions were good for the price and the egg rolls were pretty good However I wish the staff was more attentive, it took a little long for them to get our orders and the check even though it wasn't busy. The place is pretty big with many seatings so it's good to come with family or friends read more

We saw there was an event at the Korean restaurant nearby and came here on a whim. What a great deal! There is so much variety, the service was quick, the prices are very reasonable, and most importantly -each dish was delicious. We ordered the kids pho, broccoli and beef, pork spring roll, and dry noodle bowl - it was way better than some of the food we've had in SF! read more

It's been a while since I've been here but decided to come in tonight since Lucky Pho in Marina is closed. Well now I remember exactly why I stopped coming here.... The food was terrible and the service was non existent. After taking our order and dropping off the food he never returned to our table once but to drop off the check. NO type of service but he sure didn't forget to add gratuity AND a service charge to my check. Ya'll really need to do better! read more

Chopstix - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

After a long time driving around, we finally found this spot. The service was nice. The ambience is spacious, bright, and nicely decorated. The lemon grass chicken bowl was delicious. I would have liked more lemon grass flavor on the chicken, however. The char grilled pork slices with egg rolls bowl was refreshing and yummy. The sandwichs were good. I wish they would have put more mayonnaise on the breads though, because they felt dry. Overall, a good place to spot for lunch. read more

My companion came in here while I was shopping next-door at the Salvation Army. He asked what was their most popular dish and he was served some sort of meat with rice when I came back from shopping I joined him. I have never in my entire life tasted less tasty food at a Vietnamese restaurant! First of all the meat which I believe was beef was completely full of gristle. Nearly inedible. The kind of meat that just sticks in your teeth, it also was nearly completely flavorless. I mean no seasoning whatsoever. It was served on white rice, which was also of course tasteless no butter or salt flavor to be found. Honestly, I would never set foot in another chopsticks in my life. The surface was fine, a bit slow. If that's their best dish, I hate to think of the worst. read more

It's been a while, so let me do an update. The place we were going to was on the busy side so we opted for the Chopstix. Seated and menus given, nice. Visually some good looking food and the flavors of my dry noodle bowl was good though I thought it would have been hotter due to the chili pepper picture next to it. Fresh spring rolls were average, the drag was the banh mi sandwich. It was a lemon grass chicken with no flavor and worst was that it was mushy (wet). The bottom of the bread was falling apart like it was setting for too long. Last words...maybe not. read more

Loved the Udon with Tofu soup. So much soup I was able to take it home for two more meals. It even tastes wonderful cold. The fried crispy organic tofu was the best appetizer. The restaurant itself was comfortable and service was reasonable. I'd go again if I lived closer just to try other things on the menu. read more

Had family in a hospital nearby and I was craving Noodle Bar intensely. It's my favorite restaurant on the entire central coast. However, Chopstix is on Doordash and my beloved Noodle Bar isn't. So I got my usual fave Vietnamese dishes here instead, and honestly? I might have a new fave! I loved it so much that I actually doordashed it to the hospital 3 days in a row. Normally that would be embarrassing but it was THAT good. (and also, the tofu spring rolls kept well without refrigeration so made for a super tasty late night snack later) 10/10 everything I ordered was fresh-tasting, delicious, and comforting during a tough week. The only thing I wasn't 100% hype on was the specialty boba, which wasn't very flavorful. But after I "downgraded" to the regular boba, it was fine! Totally on par with other Vietnamese restaurants that also have boba on the menu. Loved it so much! read more

Food is so consistently excellent, fast and such a delightful staff. It is budget friendly and a regular go-to for me!! read more

We came here because the friend we ate with only eats Vietnamese food and is very frugal. Our server was friendly. Food was okay. I ordered the mango salad. It was good but was drenched in sauce and would have been so much better with less. My partner ordered the Bun Bo Hue. I liked the thick white noodles which had a nice bite to them. The chicken wings were okay but nothing special. Overall, an okay experience. I'd come back here for a cheaper meal but it wouldn't be my first choice. read more

Solid food and great atmosphere clean tables and also fast service food . Real authentic

Great customer service. The food it's really delicious, I usually order house fried rice, spring rolls and CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP. I've been a customer since they opened their first branch in Seaside. I've visited all four of their branches in the county. Their food is very tasty, so delicious. Love this restaurant. read more

Best pho around. The staff is also so friendly. I love the beef pho spicy. My daughter loved the veggie pho and veggie spring rolls. Can't wait to be a regular read more

We loved the soup on this chilly evening. The atmosphere is casual and quick. Tried the Pho - it was a very good portion size and two people could have had it. Glad we didn't get an appetizer. The servers are sweet and friendly. Came and asked how the food was and if we needed anything. I got a loooootttt of lemon and they provided no questions asked. Will try again if we come by. Must stop. read more

Chopstix - The name of the restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Horrible tasting food. We have a Vietnamese restaurant here in Salinas that we always go to, but decided to try a new place. We ordered spring rolls which were extremely dry & felt old, lemon grass chicken which had no flavor, and a beef dish, (I can't remember the name), that was dripping in a flavorless sauce. The only thing we ate was the wonton soup & even that had no veggies, & a few strings of chicken & a few wontons. It wasn't too bad once we added hoisin sauce & sirracha sauce to it. This one is off our list. read more

How could they even served a meal that it's not even close to what it described and on top of that the string beans was old and everything was just a disaster Don't go here! read more

Terrible customer service They take no accountability for their quality of food and lack professionalism when speaking to their customers. Also they provide the incorrect food items and lack urgency and care to make it right for the customer even if they have paid. read more

I'm only leaving a 3 start review, because for some reason all the reviews that have one star it says to go on the app to read the full review. i just want everyone to please check the food!!!! I went in to eat with my family. I Order 3 waters never got them, we asked for chili oil also never got it. I had to get up and ask for it again. Then while I was about to take sip of my boba drink I see this... a freakin roach on my drink!!! & all they offer was to take the drinks of my bill. I will be calling the health department for sure. I'm only leaving a 5 start review, because for some reason all the reviews that have one star it says to go on the app to read the full review. just want everyone to please check the food!! read more

It took over 30 minutes to get a simple take out order 1 sandwich, 1 order of fresh rolls. The restaurant had 2 tables dining inside, as I waited for my order a single diner came in and his food came out super fast. My boba melted as I sat there. read more

Good food. Good service. Ambience was casual. Wonton Soup: Delicious broth filled with fresh veggies, glass noodles, and a variety of meat. Pork Spring Rolls and Vegetarian Spring Rolls - freshly made so you can customize ingredients. The wrap was so fresh, the rolls were sticking to each other. We wanted no cilantro with the pork rolls, and no veggie ham in the vegetarian rolls. Only tofu. I also like that you can get a half order of spring rolls. BBQ Pork Bun - good and flavorful. They have a huge menu of vegetarian dishes. They also have a wide selection of boba drinks. read more

The pho here is so good. I usually get the large bowl of pho with the beef balls. I sometimes get it with rare steak or flank too. The portions are generous and the broth is so flavorful and so good. I really like the banh mi sandwiches too because they're so delicious and such a great deal. I also really like the boba here. I usually get the classic milk tea with boba and I've tried the taro and almond flavors as well- they're all good. Rumor has it that the Carmel location of Chopstix is the best but I haven't tried it yet. I'll get around to that. I love the Seaside and Monterey locations. Excellent service, staff and food. read more

Calamari is my favorite to order here on chopstix, i order once a week. but now i ordered one and i'm very disappointed, they gave me a very little calamari and the taste is not similar at all and it's not chewable. I hope it won't happen again! i provided the image for you to see the difference. read more

Its cute on the inside, everyone was nice and greeted me when I walked in, bathrooms were clean and the restaurant has mostly booth seating.. boba was delicious, the fries we're too plain I probably won't get those again.. I got popcorn chicken that came with sweet-and-sour sauce, the chicken was more soft than crunchy which was also just OK.. service was fast and prices weren't too bad read more

My wife and I went to chopstix and bought a matcha boba (extra sweet as requested) and a taro boba. The taro boba was delicious and so was the matcha boba. They are very generous with the boba pearls. Tool about 5 minutes. Atmosphere inside makes up for the ugly exterior. read more

Imperial rolls were tasty. Beef w/green onions had great flavor. Looking forward to trying some of the other dishes

The food is delicious! The prices are very reasonable, open from lunch straight through dinner. But the best thing here is the owner, sweet Hauk. She takes care of everyone!!! A kind smile, hugs and treats everyone special. Thank you, sweet lady. Big open, clean space is comfortable. The service staff is wonderful. I always enjoy visiting here. Enjoy! read more

Came here for an early dinner. This place was okay. When i came here at 5:30 pm, the place was empty. People started coming in closer to 6 to dine in. But they do get more of pick up order than in. You ordered bun bo hue and spring roll. I enjoyed their spring roll with their peanut sauce. As for bun bo hue, it was alright. The broth itself doesn't taste like your typical bbh broth flavor. My parents also had pho. All the noodle soups, it has more meat than noodle so the ratios of noodle and meat wasn't balance. You get your own individual plates of vegetables if you get their noodle soup. read more

Chopstixs is a pretty good restaurant for pho, spring rolls and other Vietnamese favorites. This time, I ordered the Popcorn Chicken & Fried Chicken Wontons to satisfy a craving for something crunchy. Yum! These were so much fun to munch on! The Popcorn Chicken was light, crispy and tender, while the dumplings had the right amount and crunchy/chewy to them. Plus, eating with chopsticks right from the Chinese takeout box always makes it taste better! Lol read more

Chopstix - Choptix combo with fresh noodle. - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Very disappointed with our take out experience. We were assured all the sauces and condiments were included. We ordered pho, fried rolls, spring rolls, basil chicken, fish balls, dumplings for 7 people. No soy sauce, rooster sauce, hoisen sauce, nor fried rolls dipping sauce was included. Chop sticks and napkins were not included either. Only the rolls were decent. The pho broth was watery, didn't even taste like beef broth and the noodles were hard. Nevertheless we will be going elsewhere for our pho in the future. read more

Try something different here. I tried the mango salad. OMG. It's out of this world! It comes with shrimp although I didn't know and had ordered it with tofu the first time. It's really fantastic. The shrimp is soft. But it's green shredded mango. I forgot I was eating fruit because there are other ingredients and together it really pops. I'm going to try the other salads as well. If you like beef, they have a salad with that. I prefer vegetarian. read more
