The staff's service is too bad. The food is so bad. Not delicious Will not go to this restaurant again.

Came here with my food buddy last night Jennifer T. and all we did was eat last night. Tonight was her turn to choose and she picked this place that we haven't ate before, but I did remember vaguely that I ate here over 20 years ago. Perhaps it was named something else at one point. Isn't much parking for this place, but you can find street parking along valley blvd. Service was okay also, but there was this elderly worker that gave me some negatives vibes. He didn't even smile at all. Perhaps it was the language barrier. I did try my best to speak cantonese, but eh didn't work to my favor. Tonight we ordered two dishes 1) Combination com tam (broken rice) plate that had 10 different items. Some of the items were the shrimp paste, chicken, nem nuong, pickled vegetables, eggrolls, and the vietnamese steamed quiche. I thought the "Sample Platter" was amazing! Those are usually the things I eat when it comes to com tam. Can't forget the fish sauce (nuoc mam). 2) Egg rolls- Plate which included greens, pickled vegetables, and fish sauce! With this plate you would get the egg roll and roll it up with the pickled vegetables and dip it into the fish sauce! You would repeat throughtout the duration of the eating experience until most of the ingredients are done Happy eating folks!! read more

This place was recommended by a friend. He said the broken rice is good here. So I came with my family and gave it a try. The broken rice was very good! We ordered the largest combo, it had 7 different toppings & it was soooo yum! Everything on the plate was good! The rice texture was perfect! We also ordered the dry vermicelli, pho, & egg rolls.They were ok too. But the broken rice is the best. I would come back for the broken rice. :) read more

Com Tam Ninh Kieu - Vietnamese Near Me - Rosemead, California

Friends took me here because I wanted to try more Vietnamese cuisine. When we got there are maybe 7:30pm, it wasn't too busy. There were a decent number of tables, and we were seated at booths. - Service: Seems like a mom and pop shop; our server might have been one of the owners. He was attentive and got us started on the free drink (sweet chrysanthemum tea) right away and gave us time to order. He came back a couple of times since we were taking a while, but I didn't feel rushed. Later, he got one of my friend's orders wrong, but after double checking on the menu, gave it to her on the house and quickly put in the correct order. She happily stuffed egg rolls and shrimp paste into her woven noodle sheets! At the end of my meal, I asked for a box for my leftovers and they included a side of fish sauce to-go as well. My food: - Broken rice with chicken, shredded pork, and baked egg (cha trung). The piece of chicken was large and juicy and tasted like it was basted with teriyaki sauce(?)--sweet and soy might have been used. I'm not sure what the shredded pork was seasoned with; the texture of seasoning was grainy and sort of reminded me of peanut powder. It was also mixed with thin vermicelli and there were crunchy pickled carrot and daikon(?) on the side. Not a bad flavor, just not what I am used to. My favorite element was the baked egg! Vietnamese baked egg reminds me of steamed egg which my mom makes with ground pork, but it has more ingredients like (I'm guessing by sight) thin vermicelli, shiitaki mushrooms, and carrots. It's like Asian meatloaf. SO GOOD! - All of us ordered different things (spring rolls appetizer, broken rice, woven rice noodle sheets, etc.), but received a complimentary side of fish sauce and a small bowl of soup. Carrots and daikon (?) are in the sauce. The soup is a light broth and included some kind of meat (looked like spare ribs), not too oily and topped with onions. - The portions are large and great for the price. My friends also enjoyed their meal. read more

Decent, average Vietnamese food. Food is good for big portions. They are known for their broken rice with meat combinations. They do serve dry noodles with meat, spring rolls, and pho, but broken rice is in their restaurant name. Pricing for rice is around 6 to 9. Dry noodles about 8. I have been here a couple of times and it's very spacious, humid as there is no air conditioning, and they have some flies and fruit flies just a heads up. Do not be discouraged, they have been around for a while. Service is okay. read more

I have been here many times and the food has always been good at satisfying my cravings. The Com Tam is affordable and they give generous portions. The egg rolls are also quite tasty as well. The service is just ok. I never really expected it to be that great. I feel like they assume you know what you want the moment you walk in as they have always immediately asked the moment we sit down what we want. Or they wait about 30 seconds before coming to our table asking if we knew what we want to order. After my most recent experience I have vowed to never come to this place when it's within 30 minutes of closing time. Once it hits close to closing time they really make you feel like you're in their way of going home and you should hurry up and leave. The began to close everything in their store within 10 minutes of closing time and then gave us the check and 10 minutes later asked if we wanted a box, when we weren't even done eating. I'm not too surprised with the treatment, but it was still not very pleasant to go through. When we were trying to pay the bill they said cash only. Then we said we only had card so they said they'd charge us an extra $1 for card(which I find totally ridiculous). The service isn't going to stray me from coming next time though. I do really enjoy their food a lot. I come for the food not the service. I will just make sure to bring cash and come with an appropriate time to eat or just order take out(which most people do anyways). read more

This is my favorite restaurant for this delicious dish & I have been to several Vietnamese places where they serve this dish, but to me this is the best.

I like their Ninh Kiều khai vị đặc biệt, special sauce eat with nem nướng, chè 3 màu, and bún bò huế. Enjoy every bite,

I support small business but I called their B.S. and will no longer be their customer. I placed a phone order for nem nuong roll for my mom. Went to pick up my order. The lady at the front grabs the pre-wrapped one on the counter and gives it to me. I touched the outside plastic and asked her why she gave me the cold rolls. I told her every place I ordered from comes out warm, not cold. Her excuse was it would wilt the veggies. If it's fresh and eaten right away there would be no issues. Her facial expression implied to me as if I don't know what I am talking about. Lady, I had nem nuong from many other restaurants and in Vietnam. If you make it fresh it would at least be warm. You run a restaurant and don't understand that concept, then you shouldn't be in the restaurant business. Definitely will not be supporting this place. read more

Com Tam Ninh Kieu - Cold nem nuong, not fresh. - Vietnamese Near Me - Rosemead, California

This place is decent, and also cash only. Some of the specials on the wall is only written in Viet, but a quick Google search will give you a rough idea what they are. I really like the pork spring rolls they serve here as an appetizer. The pork is soft and juicy. The texture of the spring roll is nicely paired with a mini fried egg roll that gives a nice crunch with each bite. This is what I usually buy to go for a simple lunch. My husband ordered the pho tai fillet with beef on the side. The beef is more soft and tender when you add it in yourself instead of having it in the broth when served. I had the bun bo hue. I like the tingy and spicy soup flavor. This place actually served it with shredded banana flowers on the side. Most places serve it with purple shredded cabbage as a cheaper substitute. read more

1 came here around 6pm on a friday, completely empty 2 asked to get comtam with sausage and korean bbq ribs but told us they cant customize plates. They have every other combo under the sun but that. They cant just add it on? 3 had hair in the food 4 hard to even get waiters attention for refill of water. Yelled out for him from across the room(lowkey felt good) Mediocre food, not bad. Probably do to go order but will not return for sit down dining read more

Things are pretty good here I'm pretty satisfied but the prices have grown over the years so beware other than that everything's fine pretty good typical place for broken Rice read more

Location: Good, it was in a plaza that's easy to spot Parking: Medium sized private parking lot for customer's convenience Food: Less than average. Pho-Their pho was straight up bad. The broth tasted very oily and weird- they definitely over did it on the MSG. The pieces of meat in the pho were filled with fat and they had a small ratio of noodles compared to the bowl size. Bun Ryieu?- It was noodles in tomato soup with rolled up shrimp, tomatoes and tofu. This was delicious. The noodle was a bit tough but everything else was spot on. Service: Way below average. The server spoke very little English, which was fine, my mom knew Vietnamese. Even though he communicated to her, the server wasn't patience with our order and lots of the things we tried ordering, they were out of. At the end, we wanted the table cleaned up so we can cut cake for my sister and I's birthday but they ignored our request. I understand, it was getting late, they were about to close and they wanted us out- but it was a bit rude to ignore us repeatedly. Worst thing? My dad got food poisoning from this place. He ordered the fish cake soup. He mentioned that he didn't like his meal at the end and felt sluggish. We thought it was due to the overdose of MSG. He fell asleep really early that night. The next day, he just couldn't keep anything down his stomach. Everything he consumed, along with liquids, ended up being projectile vomit through his mouth. This was the very last thing he ate before he was ill and now we're tending to his needs. He's 91 years old, so it might be that his immune system is weak, but this is his first time getting food poisoning in 10+ years. Maybe we were unlucky, went on a night where things weren't cooked as accurately? I just want to warn you- if it tastes funny, stop eating it! read more

Came here after the lunch hours and it was pretty empty. Service is definitely lacking. Menu has many options, just like their counterpart, Com Tam Thuan Kieu. I ordered the Com Tam Bi Cha Thit Nuong Lap Xuong Nem Nuong (broken rice with shredded pork, steamed egg, charbroiled pork, Chinese sausage, and BBQ pork patty) with a Rau Ma (pennywort juice). The flavors from the thit nuong blew my mind. I wasn't expecting it to be as good as Com Tam Thuan kieu but wow. It could be very comparable or even better. All the meats on dish had flavor and nothing was bland. I loved my meat... choices. They give a good helping of pickled vegetables as well. It was accompanied by a very tasty nuoc cham. The small side of pork soup that it came with was not salty or bland either. The rau ma was kind of grainy so it was a turn off. Like I said, service was lacking. They didn't come by to check on us. They only interaction we had was when they sat us, took our order, and dropped off food. I had to go to up to the register to pay and when I requested to go boxes, they just pointed me to where they were at and to help myself. Close to 5 stars. **CASH ONLY** read more

4.24.26: Will never return again. We sat and the lady there just ignored us for awhile. She came finally and the first things she said is are you ready? Hello we are freaking thirsty. We came at an odd time with about only two other tables in the restaurant. So why she being that way? Bad day I guess. Anyhow we order and the food came out super duper quick. I order the rice dish with charbroiled pork, my mom ordered noodle soup dish, and finance ordered rice dish as well. We took one bite and all of us was like wth? The rice was alot of it but hard. Old rice maybe? I ate everything else, but it was super bland the meatloaf egg cake thing which is usually my favorite it wasn't good at all here. My mom's soup was missing flavor. She didn't really care for it but of course ate it anyways. The place was pretty terrible. Unfortunately because there are other places I can't say I'll come back here. Too much competition to say I'll come back, but yeah maybe one day because all restaurants have bad days? We will see. read more

i love this restaurant because they don't poison me. i like the pork chops and rice with ox.

So I ordered a com tam (broken rice) dish with shrimp paste and charbroiled beef. It was excellent. The beef wasn't overcooked and was tender. The shrimp paste had a soft, but firm texture that really went well with the rice. It also came with free soup/ice tea. It was a generous portion with quality food. Check it out! read more

After our 2nd visit here for lunch today, it's time for a review. Stumbled upon this restaurant last month while initially driving towards Lee's Sandwiches. Don't get me wrong, I still love Lee's Sandwiches, but we (me & my hubby) decided to try something different for our weekly family Vietnamese Sunday brunch. So, I "yelped" for help and I chose this place for the great reviews. =) Walking in with my family, we were promptly greeted and seated. They have a nice, simple but cozy open dining area and not to mention the cute high chairs they have for kids. Some tables are a bit wobbly, so be careful not to spill anything especially their yummy fish sauce. =) The menu is overwhelming with pages and pages of items to choose from. So far, we've tried the following menu items: Appetizers #5 Phan Cha Gio (5 fried egg rolls) served with (a generous amount of) lettuce $5.55 #6 Phan Gio Cuon (2 fresh Shrimp & Sliced Pork rolls) $3.50 Broken Rice #22 Broken rice w/ charbroiled pork chop ($5.55) #26 Broken rice w/ shredded pork, charbroiled pork & baked egg ($5.55) #31 Broken rice w/ charbroiled chicken & Korean beef chop -aka short ribs- ($6.25) #43 Broken rice w/ shredded chicken, sausage & fried easy egg ($6.25) Beverages #199 Iced coffee w/condensed milk $2.50 + not so good tasting coffee = unhappy & unsatisfied coffee fix for Me #203 Coke can $1.25 + no refills = unhappy Hubby Iced water (free) tho has an indescribable hint of flavor, but still drinkable Your meal comes with a small bowl of soup which is pretty good! The broth is flavorful with chopped green onions and a small piece of beef. Simple, but really good. We put some of the soup in a bowl of rice for our kids to eat and they love it! I have a feeling we will be back here real soon. Service is fast & friendly.The food is really good and the prices are even better! Although, I have to mention that both visits here I've had to get my iced coffee fix across the street @Lee's Sandwiches. =P And the restrooms are clean! Shout out to you fellow Yelpers! Without your great reviews, we would have never found this gem. So thank you all! PS. The 2 visits here we've had to pay cash. No credit cards accepted, although it states it here on yelp that they do. =/ read more

This place is definitely a four rising towards a five. Come here for some great, traditional vietnamese cuisine. Service is asian-restaurant typical, so don't expect much. The food will speak for itself. I like to get the vermicelli noodles with charbroiled pork and egg rolls (bun thit nuong cha gio $6.50). The menu has pretty straightforward translations and dishes separated into categories like rice, noodles, etc. It came with a small bowl of broth and a chunk of meat as an appetizer and some refreshing iced tea on the side. My mom also likes to order the rice dishes here. Service here is ridiculously fast for a sit-down restaurant and you go up to pay at the cash register when you're done (just remember your table number). Fun fact: Com tam (broken rice) used to be peasants food since it was essentially the leftover, less desirable rice broken during the rice processing. Now factories intentionally produce broken rice just to replicate the traditional dish. read more

One of my favorite Com Tam places. Its gotten a makeover in the last few years but I'll always remember how it looked. Its much brighter and open now. The Com Tam here is always good. Good portions, good taste, good price. I always recommend this place to my non-asian friends when they want broken rice for lunch/dinner. read more

I like this place more than com tam thuan kieu down the street. The prices are decent. Quick service! Com tam kbbq is my favorite!

This place specializes in Vietnamese broken rice. More than half of the menu is devoted to rice (com tam) dishes. They have the typical pho and bun items as well but I come here for their delicious broken rice. I live in the IE (go ahead, make fun. I've heard everything. I know the IE is shit) but every chance I get I head down to the OC, west side &, of course, the 626 for awesome fun & fantastic food. This place is 1 of my regular stops. I've brought my Gwai Lo friends here before & they too are very impressed with the quality, price & size of the dishes. I always walk away from here a full & happy man. read more

Maybe 3.5 stars. Loses a point for not bringing what I ordered. Too bad because I was looking forward to the meatball. But I was hungry, had to get back to work, the food looked good enough and I didn't want to hassle it. Lost other point because the taste was so-so. Nothing special enough to warrant 4 stars. Might have made up a half star on the speed my food came out (maybe it is fast if they just serve what's ready) and the size of the portion. I'm not a huge eater, but I could have split this with 2 other people. In spite of all that I might come back again... read more

Cash only, despite no signs specifying such. But it's a classic small Asian restaurant in the 626, so you shouldn't be too surprised. Service: the place is large and usually empty, so service is reasonably fast about seating, taking orders, and getting the check. We came on a weekend afternoon and found it fine. Food: they're famous for their broken rice (com tam), and their portions are HUGE for the price. For $9, you can easily have 2 meals if you pace yourself. I also recommend the charboiled pork or beef, which are equally delicious. The fish sauce it comes with is quite generous. Not sure what a previous Yelper was talking about; it's only small if you plan on drinking it like soup. read more

This restaurant was recommened to by my mom (thanks mom!). It is true what they say that "Mom's know best". This restaurant did not dissapoint at all, and was actually a refreshing turn around after some of the horrible experiences I have had with Viet restaurants in Vegas. Places like this is what makes me love Vietnamese cuisine. This location used to be a 7 course restaurant, but I guess they changed it to this. The interior was remodeled and looks very nice, it doesn't have that ghetto or dull feeling. Great use of decorations and colors. Service is also great, and the people are very nice there. As for the food, it's what Vietnamese food is suppose to taste like. The food is fresh and the portions are more than sufficient. Prices are also very reasonable. I wish they had a place like this in Vegas....... If you love Vietnamese combination rice dishes, definitely check this place out. Com Tam Ninh Kieu is so great I vow never to give it up, never let it down, never turn around and desert it. Never going to say good bye and never going to tell a lie... read more

debated giving them 2 stars, because they're not terrible, but i think anything that affects a person healthwise merits an automatic complete fail. i would come here often for a few months now, they had the best value for their bun rieu, pricier than other locations but there were more crab meatballs and sausage slices than other places. the soups are always piping hot, but not necessarily better in quality, and it's as though they make it so boiling hot so that you can't really notice that. the last time i came here, i got bun rieu, and i feel like something tasted kind of off about it. like the taste was 90% there, something was just missing. i had a painful stomach for about a week, i monitor what i eat and i'm pretty sure it was from this place. i didn't try it again until yesterday, with some friends. wanted to give them another chance, maybe it was a one-off. they ordered the #1, i got bun bo hue this time. today, i'm having stomach cramps again. it also didn't taste right. my friends were fine, i guess you can't go wrong with #1 at a pho restaurant, how do you mess up basic beef pho? the bun bo hue, and bun rieu soups though, idk if they were using old, crappy meat that was about to go bad. this place is nearly always empty day and night, the prices are pretty high despite not offering quality, and now i feel like theyre cutting corners on their food quality to the point where customers are getting diarrhea. i'm not going back a third time read more

I really like this place! It's pretty big! The restaurant is wide open with big windows for lots of light. Not what I usually expect in this area. I really enjoyed the roll-your-own (usually not my thing). The meat that came out was crazy delicious! They grill it over coals and it tastes soooooo nice! Really adds another level of flavor to your roll. The veggies were really fresh also. The shrimp was nicely marinated and I really enjoyed the shrimp/fish cakes as well. I appreciated the variety so you can mix the meats in your roll! They give you tons of food for each order also. Great value! Each plate easily goes for 2 people. read more

When it comes to broken rice, there's many places you can choose from in the SGV. This place is probably one of the top places I'd go to. Their food is consistently good and I love the small bowl of pork spare rib soup that comes with your meal. The portions are great and always filling. Their customer service could probably use some work. It's not that they provide bad service, I just think they could be a little more attentive. Overall, I'm definitely a repeat customer! read more

I always come here with my family whenever we're craving a hearty dish. The owner is always nice as she comes and greets us. We always feel like we're family friend as we converse with her before our meal! The portions are large. Being a large guy, I am always surprised when I find a meal that I struggle to complete. For the price and portion, it is definitely a great place to go. Although it is occasionally empty, the service is extremely quick, and they set up your table in matter of seconds. If you are craving Com Tam, this is the best place to go! A lot of Vietnamese families I know always make their own fish sauce or "nuoc mam". I can for sure say, my family agrees completely, this place makes better fish sauce than any of us could ever make. We always grab a whole jug of it to go for home use! When a Vietnamese family ends up buying their fish sauce, you know it is good! read more

I've yet to be disappointed by a com tam (broken rice) restaurant and this is no exception. Food: Hungry for some com tam and feeling adventurous, my boo and I decided to try Ninh Kieu instead of our regular joint (Thuan Kieu on San Gabriel). Com tam is basically broken grains of rice, usually served with a variety of differently prepared meats or "kinds of food." The snapped shape gives the rice a somewhat harder texture with a nutty flavor. Don't ask me why. An order of com tam will score you a complimentary clear soup (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4Oez71pQd2NtgvImtequUg?select=SzFSNdqm3g7aFRaLkBTWRg#caS_cPjIVmiqRjl9ZGppnw) with a meaty flavor. Sometimes I just want a giant bowl of this stuff as my meal. It's that good. You'll also get some fish sauce with lovely strands of carrot and daikon swimming in its midst (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4Oez71pQd2NtgvImtequUg?select=SzFSNdqm3g7aFRaLkBTWRg#9dTmccMfBtggZTB6NxuKEw). I ordered the com tam with steamed egg, BBQ pork, shredded pork, and pickled veggies (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4Oez71pQd2NtgvImtequUg?select=SzFSNdqm3g7aFRaLkBTWRg#KKnslcrtNZZZNo1kPpQKNw). It was drool-inducing, but the portions seem to be a tad bit smaller than Thuan Kieu's. One aspect I enjoy about Ninh Kieu is their generosity with the veggie garnishes (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4Oez71pQd2NtgvImtequUg?select=SzFSNdqm3g7aFRaLkBTWRg#u_s7zXPymVhR8gtwvm6_2g). If you order a noodle soup you'll be drowning in delicious greens. Atmosphere: This place is in a fairly nondescript strip mall and the interior is also pretty underwhelming. It looks like a standard Vietnamese restaurant with lots of interesting pictures on the wall and colors that never quite match. Not the fanciest place ever, but at least it's not ridiculously dirty. Service: Pretty slow. Ordering is no problem, but paying can be a laborious process. Synopsis: A good place if you need your com tam fix. The prices are dirt cheap as I usually expect for an authentic Vietnamese place. I still prefer the more spacious interior at the San Gabriel Com Tam Thuan Kieu for some reason. read more

Okay.....5 stars?! When I go into a restaurant, I have baby goals that I set that I want accomplished. Sometimes it's just to be served well with good food at a reasonable price. Sometimes, like today, it's good food and a cheeeaap price annd fast! The longer it takes for my food to get to me, the fast I have to force myself to eat.... With that said, I have very few sit-down options to choose from when I go to work. A lot of the times, I just order to go, and eat at my desk. Today, I came blindly ordered pork vermicelli (bun thit nuong) and tested my luck. Food came within 7 minutes. Homey food came in a little mountain in a bowl. Food was delicious. Food was less than $7. ($6.50) For what it's worth, I got exactly what I wanted, when I wanted. I can't comment on how this place stands up in Vietnamese food standards, but for me, it was more than great enough. You have a fan. (Now to try all the other com tam places in this area....) read more

This place serves up delicious comfort food, especially the dried bun vermicelli and broken rice dishes. You come here for these items as the title of the restaurant clearly indicates. The places sits you quickly and the service is efficient. (a la Vietnamese style of course) The best: Egg rolls: Just perfect. I eat them as part of a bun combo. Pork chops: Get anything with a grilled pork chop, usually with broken rice and egg meatloaf. Great Portions: I usually can't finish, especially the rice plates. I have been here for many years and I will come back. The fact that it's not crowded except during weekend lunches is a good thing. read more

This vietnamese restaurant is amazing ! Definitely on my TOP #3 favorite in SGV. The service is wonderful, the vietnamese ladies always smile and try to make conversation with me in Vietnamese. :) You get twice the food here for the same price as most other places.

Keep up the great work guys, your restaurant is super wonderful- I cannot speak highly enough of your authentic viet dishes. read more
