    Pork sausage, grilled beef, egg cake, white rice to go
    Cindy J.

    Love the food here. Their meals are flavorful and meat is juicy. Their egg cake is a decent size and not overly greasy. The texture is great and not rubbery either. Service here is quick and friendly and they have plenty of seating and parking. It can get a bit loud inside with larger crowds. I recommend the choose your meats entrees. I love the pork sausage, egg cake and grilled beef. Hubby also loves the shredded pork. They also offer buy 2 get 1 free meals and they have a great variety of meals to choose from. Restaurant is clean and can get pretty busy on the weekends. We will definitely be back again as it is one of our favorite places and since their other location closed down, this will be our new spot. They even had a gentleman playing a small keyboard and singing the day we went. They also offer orders to go.

    One of the best com tam I had for awhile and even though i ordered to go .. Everything that came with the rice was delicious and fulfilling .

    Bun thit nuong
    Dan P.

    Bun Thit Nuong - meat is on the sweeter side so I think the sauce isn't really necessary. I'm not a big fan of the pickled radish and daikon - it was just plain sweet instead of sweet/sour. Overall, it's ok but wouldn't recommend going here for this. Staff were friendly and food came out quick. Easy parking, shop located in plaza with lots of desert and other quick eats.

    Cơm Tấm Quê Hương is easily my favorite spot for cơm tấm. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly every time. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the service is fast and friendly. Everything hits the spot. Definitely the place I recommend to anyone for cơm tấm.

    Bun cha Hanoi
    Trina D.

    My husband and I were in the area. We were hungry. The place across the parking lot had closed so we wandered into Com Tam Que Huong. As with most Vietnamese places, the menu is long but the specialty of the house is in the name of the restaurant. However, I'm not the biggest fan of com tam so I ordered Bun cha Hanoi and my husband ordered Bun bo xao. My Bun cha came out in record time and I was very happy with it. My husband tried his food and said it was ok. The restaurant looked like it hadn't had a dusting in quite some time. I went to use the restroom and it was okay. I saw someone in the back rinsing dishes. But shortly afterwards, I went home and felt ill. I'm not 100% sure it was from dining here but that's the only thing I can think of to make my stomach turn. It might have been the fresh herbs but I didn't think I'd feel that way in a restaurant in SoCal. TLDR; Food was okay, but I felt sick after an hour.

    The menu is very big with alot of different combinations . The restaurant is clean, The broken rice is kind of special, smell so good, enough moisture and dry enough as Com Tam should be , pork grilled is well marinated , You can choose choices of chicken, pork, or beef comes with soup and fish sauce. Reasonable price for the portion.

    Receipt

    Beware on price when you paid ..making sure you ask for receipt and compare it with the price they have listed on the menu. I was there and they over charged me when I asked, they said the price on menu was old and have not fix yet..then the owner took menu away and had an attitude toward me..this is second time they over charged me. On top of that I paid them cash and I don't know if they report tax on cash flows with IRS but on my receipt tax was included in it.

    Com tam thịt nuong

    Pathetic portion! I wanted just com tam thit nuong for my son. I didn't want the bi or cha. At least compensate! Never ever again! I'll stick to Com Tam Xi Gon. That's what I get for being too lazy to drive to Xi Gon. I thought since I am already in that plaza, let's give this place a chance. Utterly disappointing!

    Com Tam Thit Nuong
    Nick P.

    Love the com tam from here. We've been getting our combos from here regularly. Their grilled pork always has the perfect charring and the flavor is on point. I love the crispy pork fat bits thay come with the meat. The fried egg adds extra creaminess to the meal and their nuoc mam is superb. A single order is enough to make 2 meals for me, which is solid. Definitely a hidden gem.

    24. BBQ Pork Skewer
    Thien-Kim B.

    Food cooled off really quick, perhaps it was warmed up in the microwave rather than off the stove. Maybe because we had a similar bbq pork for lunch, this just seemed really bland in comparison. Honestly it's just a normal com tam restaurant but it wasn't satisfying and I was kind of disappointed we drove over an hour for it.

    I recently tried Cơm Tấm Quê Hương after hearing a recommendation about their thịt nướng, and unfortunately, I left pretty disappointed. I ordered the bún thịt nướng, and right from the start, the presentation felt off. The grilled pork (thịt nướng) wasn't what I expected at all. Instead of the usual strips of pinkish, red meat, it was served in small, yellowish chunks that were soft in texture. Every bite felt like I was eating bits of fried fat, kind of like what you'd find on bánh bèo at other places--just not the satisfying grilled meat I was hoping for. The biggest issue for me was the nước mắm (fish sauce). It was bland and lacked the rich, sweet, savory flavor that usually complements a good bún thịt nướng. It felt watered down and didn't bring the balance that I love in Vietnamese dishes. The pickled carrots and daikon didn't help much either--they lacked the tangy punch I expect and seemed pretty bland overall. Unfortunately, the whole dish felt off. Some of the meat chunks were hard and chewy, while others were just soft, making for a weird inconsistency in texture. It's a shame because I love a well-balanced bún thịt nướng where the flavors and textures complement each other, but here, it felt like something was missing, especially in the nước mắm department. On a positive note, the customer service was great. The staff were friendly and attentive, which I appreciated. However, when the food doesn't deliver, it's hard to overlook. I really wanted to like this place because I had heard good things, but I don't think I'll be coming back--at least not for the bún thịt nướng. If they improve their fish sauce and work on the consistency of the meat, I could see this place having potential. But for now, I can't recommend it for this dish. If you love Vietnamese food, nước mắm is a must, and unfortunately, that's where this place falls short.

    Having been to most Com Tam restaurants in OC, I can say that Que Huong is decent at best! I ordered the Com Tam with Suong Nuong with Tau Hu Ky, the portions were smaller than most restaurants I've been to, however it was filling nonetheless. Service was sub-par, however that's to be expected. AMEX is also not accepted here.

    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.

The restaurant has a lively atmosphere, the staff work hard to keep up with the crowds, and the service is friendly despite how busy they are.
