    Steamed salted whole chicken
    Rachel T.

    My one and only spot for steamed chicken, roasted ducks, and crispy pork belly. You can never go wrong ordering food from Hao Vi. Generous portion, fast service , reasonable price. They take Credit Card which I like. You can see in the video, the chicken has nice color, and the meat is not too soft, my family only goes here to buy cooked poultry. If you come near closing time they might be sold out for a lot of things, especially the infamous Peking Duck.

    Roast duck (vit quay)

    Look how juicy!!! I also love that they give extra sauce and add the bamboo on top. Service was quick, too

    Best BBQ meats in the area (Ducks, chickens, Porks, etc) it's only for to-go orders (in period called ahead for specialty items - like pigs heads, etc). Clean and quick service, preferably Cash payments. It's well known to the community and locals. We called ahead with our orders since items were selling out quickly. Delicious BBQ.

    Salted chicken

    My family and I got this for the holidays and the wait was at least 45 minutes. People ahead of us complained waiting 2hrs but I think the line of people waiting comes to show how good the place is. The roasted pork was fresh with crispy skin and the salted chicken was soft and tender. I love the sauces they give which pair well with the meats. (a little brown sauce and fish sauce). My family and I enjoyed wrapping the meats in rice paper and making scrumptious spring rolls out of them. They accept credit cards which is also great.

    Usually the heo quay here us very good but today it was rather disappointing. Portions were smaller, skin wasn't as crispy, and the meat was a bit dry. Hopefully it was just an off day!

    Their famous awesomely gateway to wonderful great bbq.

    Their foods here are always one of the greatest bbq place in OC. We loved literrally everything, everything here. The roast ducks are so tastey and wonderful, tendered, well marinated. All of the foods here are very, atticulately marinated to perfections. Services always with a smile, fast and right. The moment you walk in. You could smell all of the wonderful great aromas. Clean, nice, accurate and wonderfully great with everything.

    Nasty vit quay
    John D.

    Never had sweet vit quay before. They went cheap n season it with cha siu seasoning which makes it super sweet while charging a premium $32 bucks a duck. Look how red it is. Worst taste ever

I ordered the Wagyu Tri-Tip Party Tray which was described as "Buttery tender American wagyu tri-tip slow smoked with white oak and seared off to medium/med rare". It was honestly so delicious! It was so tender and the cuts had a nice fatty marbling. This tray comes with their Saigon cilantro sauce which really enhanced the flavor. It serves about 8 people. We were honestly impressed and would definitely order this again. I also ordered the Brisket Feast for 5 and the Pandana pudding. The brisket feast comes with 3 lbs Smoked Brisket, 1 qt Shells & Cheese, 1 qt Sesame Slaw, 1 qt Mapo Chili, and 1 Cornbread. I added the pickled red onions because the reviews I read all praised this item. It's a great choice. It paired perfectly with the different meat. The Mac n cheese was a basic Mac n cheese but we still enjoyed it with the other heavy flavors. It was a nice balance in my opinion. The pandan banana pudding had a nice vanilla nutty flavor. I definitely want to try the other desserts, the brisket sandwich, and rice bowls that I saw as I entered to pick up my order. We loved everything. I would definitely order these items again. Don't expect your typical American barbecue. I loved the Asian inspired flavors- it added such a unique spin on American comfort food. This place was PACKED! I enjoyed seeing the family photos and notable restaurant mentions decorated on the walls. I would say this place is definitely family-friendly and they had outdoor picnic table style seating with a few limited seating options inside. I had to drive around for parking. They do have designated lots in the neighborhood. Expect to wait or order online if you don't want to wait in that long line. It was Father's Day, so I can't comment on what the line is like on a regular day.

    I've been telling my family about this place for years and finally we made plans for dinner to come…read morehere. We got here on Friday night 4/3/26 around 5:30pm. All the tables were full and there was one party of 11 just ahead of us. Our wait for a table was like 30 minutes or so. Once we were up we were guided to a table towards the back for five. Our server asked if we been here before and if we wanted anything else besides water to drink. My brother and his fiance split a full order of the beef ribs and side order of sauteed garlic green beans. My mom and step dad split a full order of beef ribs while I ordered a full rack of baby back ribs which came with two side orders. I picked coleslaw and onion rings which I shared with the family. The food came out promptly. Everyone enjoyed their food. The baby back ribs were moist with flavor, smoked and went well with their bbq sauce. The rest of the family really like their beef ribs. And they even commented that it was better than the other bbq places we been to. Definitely will return and highly recommend.

    *** SCAM ALERT *** I…read moredon't use the word "SCAM" lightly, but that's what this was. My adult son called in a $281.62 order off the menu for Mother's Day. They would not accept the order or payment over the phone because the order was "too big." They asked that someone go there and pay up front for the entire order. Since it was the evening before Mother's Day, I drove to them and paid for the order. Yes, I was also presented with a minumum 20% TIP screen, which I declined. When I got there at pickup time (4:00pm) on Mother's Day, the price changed to $325.51. I was told that, for some reason, they had cut about 50% larger portions than the menu specified (see the line items, which should have been 1 lb. each), so they charged me for the difference ($325.51 - $281.62) which was $43.89 (about 50% more for the 2 items they cut heavier). No, there was no mention when I placed the order that the total cost might change due to extra meat. Neither is it shown on their web site or printed menus. When I protested, there was no option. If I don't pay the $43.89 difference, I don't get the Mother's Day food. After about 20 minutes of bickering at the counter with two different clerks (note the time stamp differences on the credit card slips), I was given my original order, with a net price reduction of ($281.62 - $254.93) $26.69. My persistence had paid off. On a positive note, the cook did, twice, walk up to me and quietly apologize for what was going on. I know many folks would have folded in this situation, but that's not my nature. I don't stand for dishonesty. Yes, it was embarrassing, other clients in line were not happy (I let them skip ahead of me so as not to inconvenience them). None of them had price increases. I don't know if the clerks wanted a tip because the management doesn't pay them much, or it this goes deeper and is standard operating procedure that assumes most clients will simply approve of the overage and pay up. In any case, from this client's point of view, this is a SCAM! When it was all over, I took my 11 and 12 year old grandsons (who had been sitting patiently waiting for grandpa to pay) and my food package to the car, drove home and proudly presented the meat to my family. After all, I am a hunter-gatherer; and the food was great!

I usually call in an order for pick it up but I needed to finish up some work before dinner and my family wanted BBQ. I didn't have time to drive over there but noticed they now offer delivery so I downloaded their app. I was having trouble adding an item to my cart so I called to ask for help. After trying to walk me through it without success, Cole just offered to personally drop off the order for me. I was totally thinking I was going to let my family down and have to figure out something else. I was shocked that he even offered because I know they are a small shop and can get busy. I assumed they partnered with door dash or Uber eats for their delivery. The cherry on top was that the food got here faster than if I had used door dash Anyhow, it is rare to experience this kind of hospitality these days and thought they deserved the kudos. Thank you for going above and beyond. Our favorites on the menu are the pulled pork, brisket, sausage and chicken.

He continued to talk loudly and making a statement in front of this whole team and all of them looking like I was in the wrong. Excuse you? Did I ask for a box of bones?

We went when prices were still like $18.99/each AYCE at night but now I heard it's $23/each, which is understandable but unfortunate for us students. Both times we went, the portions each order was solid and the meat quality was good, better than expected. We ate tons of meat and some of us ordered sides, the wait for the orders weren't too long and the grill was being changed frequently. The staff were nice and the service was relatively quick even when they were busy. One order seemed to be forgotten but another server checked in on us and they went back to make sure everything was proper, which was nice. When I went with my friend, the two of us were challenging each other and we ended up being the very last party to leave. Unfortunately, we ordered more than we could eat due to our competitiveness and it was already past 12 p.m. They decided not to charge us the leftover fee so I tipped more to compensate. Shoutout to the kind staff that watched me try to scarf down the food at the end and seeing a duo last longer than a party of 11 . I recommend going here late at night to try out their, now $23, AYCE from 10 p.m to 12 p.m and note that their last call is 11:30 p.m. Another thing is that you have to sign up on the waitlist via their tablet in-person, so come around 9:15 p.m if you're going with a large party and hit up the H-Mart across while waiting!

While we waited for the grill to get going, we snacked on the banchan. The pickled dishes and spring greens were especially refreshing and did a great job balancing out all the rich flavors to come.

What I loved most was how many different ways there were to enjoy each bite. You can dip the pork into the garlic oil sauce, add a little wasabi, pair it with the melted grilled cheese, wrap it with myeong yi, sprinkle on some salt, or simply enjoy the quality of the meat on its own. Every combination brought out a different flavor profile, so the meal never got repetitive. The soups were comforting and packed with flavor, making them a great complement to the barbecue.

My perfect bite was some meat with salad, pineapple, cheese, a pickled veggie and a touch of salt and wasabi, wrapped in kelp. Definitely recommend even if pork isn't your go to meat!
