Ben D.

Came by Krua Siam this past Sunday to try a new Thai spot. Right away, I really appreciated the interior- especially the modern, custom artwork featuring dishes and descriptions on the walls. As someone who enjoys good graphic design, that detail stood out and added a nice touch to the overall atmosphere. Food-wise, it was a bit of a mixed experience, so I'll break it down by dish: Fried Chicken Wings (1/5): This one was unfortunately the most underwhelming. The flavor was very mild, and I couldn't detect the toasted rice powder mentioned in the description- neither in the sauce nor as a coating on the wings. I found myself wondering how it was meant to be incorporated. The sauce itself was hard to place, maybe slightly sweet like a subtle honey flavor but overall it felt quite flat and didn't leave much of an impression. Combination Fried Rice (2.5/5): This dish was okay but had some texture issues. The rice leaned dry and a bit hard, with some clumping. There was some seasoning present, but the texture made it less enjoyable than it could have been. Panang Curry Beef (3.5/5): This ended up being the highlight of the meal. The beef was soft, tender, and really well-cooked. The flavor leaned more toward a beef stew profile than a traditional creamy Panang curry, and the color was more of a brownish-orange rather than the usual vibrant golden tone. Because of that, it didn't have the richness I typically expect, but it was still a satisfying dish. I was a bit surprised that it didn't come with rice, as that's something I usually see included-especially at $16. I had to order a side of rice which technically makes this dish $19 because who eats curry on its own? I've never seen it come without rice before. Pad Kee Mao (1/5): This was another dish that didn't quite come together for me. The noodles were quite pale and didn't have much flavor, which stood out since this dish is usually bold and well-seasoned. The texture also felt off- the noodles were clumpy and broken into shorter pieces rather than the long, separated strands you'd expect. Overall, it just didn't have the balance or depth I was hoping for. Service: On a very positive note, the service was wonderful. The server was kind, attentive and really helped make the experience better. The combination of great service and the thoughtfully designed space makes me feel like this place has a lot of potential. I really wanted to love this spot, especially with how strong the presentation and service are. With a bit more attention to flavor and consistency in the dishes, I think it could be a good spot. But as of now, if we were allowed half ratings- this would be 2.5 out of 5. I rated 3 because I liked the service lol.

Loved this place, the food exceptional, and the owners couldn't have been nicer and more accommodating. The atmosphere was nice and very clean. When you see an old Thai woman doing the cooking in the kitchen, you know you found a great Thai restaurant. We plan on going back very soon. If you haven't been here yet, you won't be disappointed!

This spot is located in a small plaza so it could be easily missed. I came for dinner and there was no wait to be seated. I ordered a few items to share: pad see ew, pork rib soup, penang beef curry (mild) with a side of rice, and mango sticky rice. I enjoyed the penang beef curry the most. It was flavorful and delicious. Pad see ew was good, could have more wok flavor. Pork rib soup was also good but a bit sour for my taste. Mango sticky rice was yummy, love the fresh mangos. Overall, the food is pretty good. Servers were friendly and quick. I enjoyed eating here and would be back to try other items on the menu.

A good hole in the wall mom and pop Thai restaurant opened up in the neighborhood! I really loved their Thai tea and Thai iced coffee! It was so smooth probably one of the best I've had! Some places make their Thai iced coffees super bitter. We ordered the Khao Soi with chicken. Definitely not the best I've had, I felt that it was missing some more coconut curry flavor and needed more spice. It was decent none the less! Also ordered the Nam (Fermented pork) crispy rice salad. This was good to eat with the curry, however I thought the rice was a little too chewy, but flavor of the pork was good! Also ended our meal with the mango sticky rice, nothing to write home about, but solid! Definitely would like to come back and try it again with different menu items. I see they have lunch specials!

Pad See Mao Smelled strongly of basil so I had high hopes for it but it was bland, would not get it again. Spicy eggplant with chicken The sauce on this was delicious and I loved eating everything together with the rice. Highly recommend this dish. Mango sticky rice You can never go wrong with a mango sticky rice. Overall although I didn't like everything I got, I would definitely come back to try more dishes.

We got the boat noodle and pork larb to eat. Boat noodle had a rich and delicious broth with plenty of meat too! Pork larb was good, it had that amazing salty and limey flavor you look for in larb. Service was quick and our server was very friendly. She was the only one serving/running the front register. The inside was very home-like and cozy. Plenty of seating and bathroom is easy to spot.

Take out for dinner on the weekend went very smoothly. I wanted to try a new place with my usual favorites - pad see ew, crying tiger, and crab fried rice. The prices normally would have deterred me a bit, since my shrimp pad see ew was $18 and the other 2 dishes hitting the $20 mark. But I decided to give them a try anyway since those prices are comparable to another well known Thai place in Tustin. No regrets! 3 dishes was great for 2 people with leftovers for another meal for both of us. Pad see ew was well balanced, not too sweet at all. Crab fried rice was topped very generously with crab. Crying tiger had nice and tender pieces with a dipping sauce to add more flavor if desired.

Spicy Catfish! Deep-fried and served with spicy sauce and basil!

During the weekend of August 29th, 2025, my girlfriend and I decided to try out this new Thai place on Harbor Blvd. It's in a very discrete plaza with plenty of parking for a Friday night and a decent amount of customers mixed with dining and take-out. A very hole-in-the-wall environment but places like this always seem to have their own unique flavor. And that's where the food comes in so let's get going! FOOD Spicy Catfish with a side of rice An a la carte deep-fried catfish with spicy sauce and basil. Yes you are able to adjust spiciness to your liking! This dish had a bit of mixed feelings for me, the taste was almost there but it tasted a bit too salty even after mixing the sauce a bit for the fish to soak in. But having rice with every bite seems to balance it out which it enjoyable! Pad See Ew with Beef I'm very very picky when it comes to Pad See Ew since it's my go-to dish ever since I was a child and my personal feedback is that everything seems to be almost there, the flat noodles were cooked well enough that it wasn't too chewy or uncooked, the beef was savory but even after all the ingredients mixed in and a bit of chili sauce, something was missing. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it but the flavor was lacking something and I can't quite pinpoint it. For me, it's probably something great to order for to-go but hey give it a shot, you might like it! OVERALL We loved the food, there was just a bit of something missing in our dish and maybe it's cause they just recently opened during the time we visited but we manage to finish all of our food so I can't say it's not all that bad, just maybe mediocre. Commends to the employees for their amazing service though! Very attentive to every customer while not overdoing it. We're going to give it a second chance and try a different dish with an appetizer so be ready for us! Also I'll try to remember to let you know about that Thai Tea lol! Big thanks to the Krua Siam Team!

3 mins walk from the great wolf lodge. All the way on the back of that commercial plaza. Very clean dining area and restrooms. Service was so courteous and efficient. The food was really good. I had the green sauce curry with shrimp and it was perfect! Kids had the lunch specials with pad see ew, chicken- beef and shrimp. We had a large party of 9 and everyone was so happy and satisfied. The cook is 78 years old and was non stop. Her food was so good. Don't forget to try the mango sticky rice and the Thai ice coffee. We will definitely come even if we're not staying at the lodge.

I'm so so happy that I found this hole-in-the-wall. This might be the best Thai food place I've ever had. - service: 1000/10. People are so warm and welcoming. They even recognized our Lisa shirts. (Iykyk) - food: omg the curry slaps so hard. It has so much depth and levels that obviously takes long and definitely not those curry cube flavors. Highly recommend getting curries if you want to know how true curry tastes like. The chinese broccs and crispy pork is simple, yet deadly. Hot wok with garlics, greens and CRISPY PORK and it's done PERFECTLY. I savoured the whole plate by myself All portions are hugeeeeee. And even though the rice is not included, the dishes are so good that we need more rice than we thought. So i'm not complaining at all. I will definitely come back and bring families to enjoy this place and i hope they would stay around :)

We found Krua Siam after spending time at Nickel Nickel Arcade and looking for something good nearby. It is tucked into a small shopping center and easy to miss, but it ended up being a great find. The food here is outstanding and easily some of the best Thai food I have had. Everything tasted fresh and authentic with that unmistakable wok cooked umami flavor. My wife and I both ordered the chicken pad Thai and it was perfectly balanced, flavorful, and cooked just right. We also shared the chicken skewers, which were tender, well seasoned, and paired beautifully with the peanut sauce. We came in as a large group of twelve with seven kids and five adults, and the owners were incredibly kind and accommodating, even with the chaos of a big family group. Service felt warm and genuine and everyone at the table enjoyed their meal. The inside of the restaurant was extremely clean, comfortable, cozy, and well maintained with a great overall vibe. You can tell the owner brings years of experience to the kitchen, having been in the restaurant industry for over twenty years and previously owning well known Thai restaurants in the area. Overall, Krua Siam is a fantastic family owned spot that delivers high quality Thai food and excellent hospitality. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it.

The food is delicious and flavorful, the interior is clean and modern, the service is wonderful! I mean tom yum fried rice, say less. I really appreciate the ceramic containers for the legit chili sauces. I only wish I lived closer, otherwise this place would by my go to takeout spot.

Absolutely love this Tai restaurant! Great food and great customer service. Will definitely be coming back for more sticky mango rice, I actually enjoyed everything we got that day.

Honest review from an honest person. I have literally ordered from almost every Thai restaurant in Orange County. I ordered take away today, and the restaurant ambiance is very nice. Has a good cozy feel to it. The waitress was very nice. However, the food is average at best. I ordered the crab fried rice, and the seafood Tom yum. Both portions were very large. Tom yum seafood 4/10 Crab fried rice 6/10 I am very disappointed in the tom yum. Apart from portion size, there is nothing great about it. The soup is bland, with small hints of sourness. Tom yum should be sour to the point where, every sip kind of makes you salivate. This soup is just, bland. Nothing stand out The crab fried rice was better than the tom yum, but again, nothing great about it. The crab flavor doesn't stand out, and the overall taste is just "mid" I paid $49 dollars for both meals, and honestly, I'm very disappointed. It's probably better tasting for people who aren't very accustomed to Thai food, and i know i have a high standard of Thai food, but for the amount of of money I'm being charged, i expect better. I will not be returning to this place. read more

I would give a 6/5 stars for the food alone, if there was an option. The food was so delicious; I got full halfway through my meal but kept eating because of how good the food was. The fried rice was the best fried rice I've ever had in my entire life, it was sooooo flavorful and well seasoned. I also had the salmon panang curry. I've only had panang curry one other time, so I don't have much to compare, but I thought it was sooooo yummy. I chose mild as the spice level, which I think was perfect because the heat slowly built up over time. I also tried the fried chicken wings and egg rolls which were both good too, but the fried rice and salmon panang curry were my absolute favorites. Service was great too; the person who took my order and brought out the food was very kind. The resturaunt itself was clean, nicely decorated, and had a decent amount of seating. read more

Always on the hunt for good Thai food and glad to stumbled across here. Arrived 50 minutes before closing and was seated quickly. Waitress let us know kitchen closes at 30 minutes before 9PM so we quickly order and food came out within 10-15 minutes. Ordered the chicken pad Thai - which was delicious, if you like pad Thai sweet, this one was perfect. We also ordered the spicy tom yum noodle soup, a good mix of sour and bunch of flavor. Chinese broccoli with crispy pork was flavorful. The pork was crispy, tasted good soaked in the sauce. Finished it off with mango sticky rice - mangos were sweet, the coconut milk over the rice wasn't over bearing. Would 1000% come again to try their other dishes. read more

Came to this little local Thai spot that's near Disney at around 2pm. Only a few people sitting during this time so I was tended to fast ! Food: pad see ew Rating: 9/10 Egg rolls Rating: 9/10 It was so good! The texture of the noodles was so nice, definitely taste authentic and the eggs were cooked perfectly. The ingredients tasted fresh and almost like a home cooked meal. Portion was actually bigger than I thought so I was only able to finish half and I normally have a big appetite. The egg rolls were solid, as good as an egg roll gets. Great appetiser, no complaints. Service 10/10: The waitress that tended to me was super nice and welcoming as soon as I came in. She was very attentive to her other customers as well, so I was happy with the service overall !! Interior: it's a really clean restaurant, the interior and exterior are nice, they have a good amount of tables as well and I'm glad they have a sink outside of the bathroom so that it's easier to access hand washing without occupying the restroom. read more

Pop by yesterday to pick up lunch for me and my coworkers and the service and food was phenomenal. I order their Pad Thai and was bomb . it wasn't too sweet or salty and was perfectly seasoned and was portioned very generously. Their Thai tea, which I found most places often too sweet, was perfectly balanced. Although the price being 6 dollars is pretty hefty for me, the drink was still really enjoyable and was worth it. I will definitely stop for a bite and maybe their tom yum soup in the future and this place is a great location for Thai lovers. read more

The server was friendly and accommodating and the seating was clean and very nice.

I should've listened to the Yelp review from Vy N. who recently posted 2 months ago,.. I rate this place 3.5 out of 5. We were at Great Wolf Lodge, and wanted to eat Thai food afterwards, but when we drove to Princess Thai, it was closed even if Yelp said it was open. We walked into Krua Siam on a Saturday (2pm), and noticed only two customers. That should've been the red flag, but we wanted to try it. We ordered the crab fried rice, pad Thai, and chicken wings. The crab fried rice was good, but needed more crabs, the pad Thai was mediocre and didn't have the usual pad Thai spice and sauces I was used to, and the fried chicken appetizer was the worse. I think you should fry the chicken because it tasted like baked, and had that old freezer burn taste. Maybe you should fry it well and then drenched it with the fish sauce because that fish sauce helped me not throw/waste the chicken. My last time going here if I'm in the area. The ambiance is probably the best, but who cares about the ambiance if the food is mediocre. I'd rather go to a place where the ambiance is bad, but food is delicious. read more

Let's start with the service, staff was attentive very pleasant and friendly. They kept anticipating when we needed water refills, provided recommendations and answered any questions we had on the menu. The place was clean, although we did wish the cleaning solution smell wasn't too strong but maybe it was just based on where we were sitting. Now the food, we ordered the Chinese broccoli and crispy pork and my son ABSOLUTELY loved it and he is a picky eater. Husband got the Tom yum soup and I got the Thai dish version of Hainam chicken...plus the mango ang sticky rice dessert. Everything tasted great. If we lived closer we would definitely come back to this place.I would definitely recommend trying this place. read more

The servers are aunties that won't check on you after every bite but will come over the second you raise your hand. I took my mom for lunch and we dug in a little too quick - photos were snapped after we've made a small dent on the food. We got the Seolleongtang and soondae platter which was plenty to share between two people. We ended up taking half of the soondae platter home and enjoying it for breakfast the day after. For those not familiar with Seolleongtang, the soup comes out very basic. You're given a bucket of scallions, a little pot of salt, and shaker of ground pepper to season the broth as you please. I recommend adding a few spoonfuls of the radish kimchi sauce. Speaking of the banchan, Jong Ro prepares some of the freshest and most flavorful banchans on the street. I wish they offered a menu option that was just a bowl of rice and bottomless banchan. The soondae was perfectly springy, paired with a salted shrimp sauce and flavored salt dip. The platter also came with boiled (or steamed?) pork belly, pig ear, and other pork innards that were nicely cooked. I love restaurants like this because they are simply good at what they do. Nothing is over-the-top. There is always a constant stream of customers. The times I've gone have been during your typical slow hours and the place was always 60% full. I imagine the house is full during dinner time or on weekends and rightfully so. Definitely stop by if you're looking for a heartwarming and belly filling comfort meal.

I got the mild spicy beef soondubu and a mixed grain rice, and it was sooo good. Even when you mix the soup with your rice, you can still taste all of the flavors in the broth and tofu. I also love the banchan variety here-they gave us a stir-fried anchovy one that I don't typically see at other Korean restaurants as well as japchae. Of course, they give you the standard cabbage kimchi, pickled cucumbers, fish cakes, and bean sprouts. Service is fast, and even though the restaurant was packed and bustling, it still felt homey. I never felt rushed to finish eating and pay. I'll definitely be coming back here for my soondubu cravings!

I'm not sure if it was because we arrived later in the night but our server seemed to rush us to order and was constantly calling someone on the phone. Regardless, he was still nice during our interactions. The Gam Ja Tang was great and the pork was so decadent. For $12 it's a great meal to share between two people. The spicy stir fried squid was also really great as well. The seafood pancake however wasn't as crispy as we wanted it to be and it actually fell apart every time we tried picking it up. Flavor wise it was good but the lack of crunch was disappointing. Overall, I'd say this place is a good option for a late night meal. It's not premium service but it's a cozy place for comfort K-food.

The fish is perfectly seasoned, and the aroma from the dill and scallions alone is enough to make your mouth water. I also highly recommend their selection of congee.

A staple in the Kei Concept family…read more I've been coming to this restaurant since it opened and you had to wait 2 hours minimum to eat. Now, I think Rol its sister restaurant has taken its popularity but overall I would say Sup has never disappointed me in all of its years in opening. High quality food with a fair price and though they don't advertise it anymore, the unlimited noodles is still one of the best parts about eating here. I would say the only thing about SUP, is unlike its sister restaurants, it doesn't have as much of a rotating menu and their limited/seasonal items are a bit hit or miss (personally). But I don't mind because I think their base menu doesn't need much straying. The service is top notch like all of their restaurants but the restaurant itself tends to be a bit loud (like all of their restaurants). Nice, modern, casual place to eat, good for all ages.

Grandpa's Kitchen - Grill Bar 168

Grandpa's Kitchen…read more I've been a longtime customer because their Phnom Penh-style hu tieu has always been very good. They were actually one of the first places around to serve this style of noodles, and I've enjoyed it for many years. However, over time, I feel like the quality isn't quite the same as it used to be. Maybe the prices are a little lower now, but the portions also seem noticeably smaller. I recently stopped by in the evening for some snacks. The atmosphere was open, casual, and lively, although both the service and the food seemed a little slow coming out. The balut was way too big for me, so I honestly couldn't really eat it. But the grilled blood cockles were large, fresh, and very juicy, which I really enjoyed. The restaurant itself is small, but it feels airy and comfortable. They also have outdoor seating, which is especially nice in the evening when the weather is cool. Overall, I still have a soft spot for Grandpa's Kitchen because I've been coming here for a long time. I just wish the food quality and portions were more like they used to be.

The side of "salad" (a small plate of lettuce and tomato slices) was also nice to have. I ate it with a lot of the pickled garlic. Definitely a filling meal. The restaurant has a lot of seating, but it can get a bit warm. We were seated near the door but were feeling the heat throughout our meal! I don't think the AC was on, and there were no fans for air circulation. Props to the workers for working in a warm environment!

That makes it 'The' place to go, even if it's a little further out. I believe ZZ has the potential to be that place. When we stopped by it was empty. The menu was QR code only, I know this is a downside for some, not so much for me, but worth mentioning. There are 2 restrooms, single user, roomy and very ADA-accessible, the illuminated mirror is a very nice touch. And the food? First point is the price. You cannot beat this price, I believe. For two of us, our total was around $40-something. The food itself? Delightful. Attentive staff. The sauces available on the table were good. I did opt for mild heat level, since I like enjoying my food and not panting like I'm in Hell in this heatwave, and the broth was very good. A nitpick I often have with hot pot is that there is far too much cabbage, but in this case I felt like it was pretty balanced. All in all, I am excited to come by and give it another try. I have very high hopes for this spot.

My oldest sister tried the Miso pot, which was nicely mild. The portions are huge! My mother and other sister shared the garlic noodles and shaken beef, and I even got an extra order to go for my kids--the beef was perfectly seasoned and the noodles were super flavorful.

Every family has their own recipes, every restaurant has its own personality, and every meal tells a story. Ngon delivered one of those meals. Despite being packed at 11 a.m. on a Sunday, our party of seven was seated immediately, an impressive start. The dining room was clean with a tasteful, modern design that made the space feel comfortable and inviting without losing its neighborhood charm. The Bánh Mì Chảo arrived sizzling with a rich beefsteak, sunny side egg, Vietnamese sausage, pâté, and plenty of savory sauce made for soaking up with the bread. The side loaf that comes with the plate deserves its own mention. It had a beautifully crisp, crackly crust while staying soft, light, and airy inside, making it impossible not to finish every last piece. We also love pâté, and this dish used it perfectly without overpowering everything else. The Xôi Thịt Kho Trứng paired sticky rice with tender braised pork belly, a fried egg, crisp pickled vegetables, and crunchy fried shallots for a comforting combination of sweet, salty, and savory. The Bún Chả Hà Nội featured a bright, balanced broth with fresh herbs and delicate rice noodles. The grilled pork had excellent smoky flavor, although the pork patties were a little tougher than I prefer. We also shared a Bánh Mì Que, whose crisp bread and savory pork floss made for a simple but addictive bite. The Vietnamese coffee was just as memorable: clean, smooth, pure tasting, and free of bitterness. The iced green jasmine tea was very refreshing. I would order both drinks again.

The restaurant that they replaced also wasn't very successful, and we don't really see this place lasting very long either. I kind of already knew that this place was going to be a letdown when I first saw the sign outside. A lot of these modern Vietnamese restaurants focus way too much on the aesthetics instead of maintaining tasty, authentic recipes. My sister wanted to try this place, though, after seeing someone rave about it on social media. The menu offers a decent range of items, but everything was either extremely salty or completely bland. I absolutely love bánh mì chảo and found that it was the only decent item that we had. My dad is obsessed with mắm nêm and loves any dish where you get to dip something in it, but theirs was so salty and incredibly difficult to finish. * Bánh Mì Chảo Bò Wagyu: 8/10 - wagyu was salty and I wish they gave me a larger baguette * Bún Măng Vịt: 5/10 - broth was bland, and fish sauce had no ginger * Bánh Đa Cua Hải Phòng: 6/10 - soup could've had more flavor * Thịt Heo Cuốn Bánh Tráng Mắm Nêm: 6/10 - mắm nêm was so salty and bitter The interior, however, is quite beautiful and I love how they offer booth seating. Our waiter was working by himself, and we appreciated how hard he was working. One thing we didn't like, however, was that he didn't tell us that there would be an extra charge for asking for more mắm nêm. I feel like any type of additional charge should always be notified instead of just adding it to our bill. Disappointing to say the least. It would be 1 star if it wasn't for the nice interior and good service.

I LOVE THIS PLACE…read more Don't let the simple decor fool you - the chicken here is hands down one of the best hole in the wall locations for chicken that I've been to. Unlike your typical rotisserie or fried chicken, this place roasts their chicken in a large clay pot and the marinade is definitely not something that you can find easily. The smell of the chicken is so inviting on its own but you won't be able to smell it outside of the restaurant - gather some confidence and open that door! We got 1 whole chicken, bot chien, crispy rice, and a side of dry noodles. All of the sides are great - I've tried at least 1 option every time I come back here but my favorite is the dry noodles and crispy rice. Their chicken pairs TOOO WELL with the pickled veggies and their special soy sauce. I like mixing a little salt, pepper and lime in mine to make it extra sour but honestly, the chicken is great even without the sauce. It's a small restaurant and flagging down servers is not difficult but I love that they will come to check in on you pretty often without you putting out any effort. I've been here when it was super busy and when it's a little more free, the servers are nice, friendly & really responsive Pro tip : get more than 1 soy sauce!! You DEFINITELY will not be sharing it!

I either crave Spring rolls, Banh khot, Oxtail pho, egg rolls or egg noodle soup, viet wings and there's still many more things to try! One of my friends I met at personal training asked me out to lunch. We always eat well and this place was already on my list so I was game! Came in at a perfect time, right after a lunch rush. Sat down looked over the menu, pretty straightforward. Service was lovely, a little bit of language barrier but good nonetheless. We started with the Bot chien ( crispy rice cake with egg.) She asked if there was pork in the dish and they said no, she can't eat pork. It came out and it looked fantastic, looked like an omelet. I love eggy dishes! This was fantastic, definitely add a sauce like Sambal or Sriracha. We were off to a great start! But we came for the star of the show, Clay jar chicken with dry noodles!!! They set the bowls down and everything looked fantastic and smelled even better! A generous bowl of egg noodles, chicken and a side of broth in case you want to dip or just throw it in the bowl. We got to grubbin and it was instant love at first bite! The chicken was so tender and flavorful. We noticed these little cubes of tasty bits, we didn't know what they were because we didn't see it on the description, she already had a piece, we thought it was some sort of crispy bread crumb bits LOL. We asked the service and come to find out, it was crispy pork called Top Mo. We told them she can't have pork, they took the plate back. After a few minutes they came back. She asked is it a new dish or did you just pick them out. They picked them out. This is where the language barrier came into play. They didn't understand for a bit. I said she can't have pork because of her religion. That's when it clicked! Thank the Lord! Out came a fresh porkless new bowl and she could enjoy with me. They should've given me her previous bowl to go LOL I'm the pork Queen LOL. Overall a fantastic meal and I've been thinking about this meal for awhile. I need a reunion stat!!! Just so many good Vietnamese dishes in the area, it's hard to choose! I will be back!!!

I would've completely, would have appreciated the honesty and just ordered somewhere else. For anyone considering ordering on a Saturday, it seems like this is their catering day, and they should honestly just close to walk-in/pickup orders rather than accept them and leave customers waiting 2+ hours. A simple "closed for catering" would be so much more professional. Lowering my rating because of the disorganization and lack of communication.

Everyone in my family enjoyed what they ordered as well. They have their own parking. If you're in the Anaheim area (the amusement parks or the convention center) think about coming out here to support this place for lunch or dinner--it's a much peaceful experience.

We went for the Saltado Garlic Noodle! This was so good with the crispy fries, beef, this alone will get be to come back.

Then we tried their Pho with a different variety of beef including the beef rib, you can request certain things to be taken out if you don't like certain items in it. The lady that helped us was super nice, I believe she said her uncle is the one that owned the place. She recommended what we should try.

I noticed the sign advertising their "Famous Garlic Noodles," so I figured I had to give them a try. I ordered the Lomo Saltado with Garlic Noodles. The noodles were good overall, although they were a little dry. I would've loved a bit more of a buttery, garlicky sauce to coat them. The filet was tender, and the fries were cooked well. I asked if they could make the fries extra crispy, and they happily accommodated, which was a plus. We also ordered the Steak and Eggs with Bread, and that was another solid dish. The filet mignon was tender and tasted very similar to the steak served with the Lomo Saltado. My only real complaint was the temperature inside the restaurant. It felt like the air conditioning wasn't on, and there was only a single floor fan circulating the air. It wasn't enough to keep the dining room comfortable, and I found myself getting pretty sweaty while eating. Overall, the food was enjoyable, and I'd come back. Hopefully next time the dining room will be a little cooler so the experience is just as enjoyable as the meal.

We were pretty much the only ones there, which probably should have been a sign on a Saturday night. The plaza itself is pretty run down, but the inside was actually cute and had a cozy little bistro vibe. The staff was nice, but the food was unfortunately very underwhelming. The tom yum soup was too sweet for our taste, and the pork noodle dish was pretty disappointing overall. We didn't enjoy the flavor or seasoning of the pork, and the dish itself just felt poor quality and extremely overpriced for what it was. We also added extra noodles to the tom yum, and I believe the menu said it was a $2 add on, but we were charged $3. Not a huge difference, just more the principle of it.

We ordered the Papaya Salad, Garlic Chicken Rolls and their Beef Jerky Special. We had a lovely conversation with the owner and she gave us special instructions on how to eat everything, such as eating the jerky with a small ball of sticky rice and sauce, followed by a mouthful of papaya salad as a palate cleanser--We followed those instructions to a T and it was truly enjoyable! For impressions of each Entree: The Papaya Salad is incredible, we ordered it with a mild spice level sauce. It's light, flavorful and refreshing and serves as a perfect palate cleanser if you order it with another item, but having it on its own is perfectly fine as well. The Garlic Chicken Roll was fantastic, crispy roll and tender chicken on the inside. It came with a sweet dipping sauce that had a flavor we weren't expecting but a nice surprise. The Beef Jerky Special: I absolutely love the idea of the beef jerky with a crispy-charred outer shell. My critique would be to dial back the charred-ness a little bit so that it doesn't dominate the center flavor. It goes perfectly well with the sticky rice and the sauce it comes with is really nice. Really great establishment with great customer service, I look forward to visiting again!

Some of the toppings that used to be included at no extra charge now cost extra. While my bowl was being made, the employee scooped my protein, then put some of it back from my mixing bowl. When I got home and opened my bowl, I was surprised by how little protein I received. There were only seven small cubes of salmon. The portions and overall value have definitely gone downhill compared to how they used to be. This used to be one of my favorite poke spots, but based on this experience, I'd rather spend my money somewhere else.

The first time I came was last year with friends for a birthday, and while it was perfectly fine, I left thinking, "That was nice." Nothing more. Then I moved to the area, fate (or maybe just convenience) nudged me back through the door, and I decided to try something different. That's when things took a turn. The restaurant itself is small and cozy, the kind of place that feels like it's giving you a warm hug the moment you walk in. The two girls who usually work there are absolute sweethearts. They're always kind, welcoming, and attentive even when they're experiencing a huge rush. I've become such a creature of habit that they already know my order before I even sit down. It's always the soy beef pho. Every bowl arrives like a tiny cauldron of comfort, bubbling hot with clouds of fragrant steam, accompanied by crisp bean sprouts and a bright wedge of lemon. The broth is rich, savory, and deeply soothing-I love that it doesn't taste like it's soaked in MSG compelling me to guzzle gallons of water afterwards. Every ingredient tastes fresh, every sip feels intentional, and every visit somehow manages to feel just as comforting as the last. Since transitioning to a more plant-based diet, I thought I wouldn't be able to easily find the same comforting experience that mimicked the memories I had of eating this dish with my dad growing up. This restaurant has managed to gently restore that memory like a small candle fire warming my soul. This place is unassuming from the outside, but once you step in and experience it for yourself, it is truly, truly special.

The portions are noticeably smaller than they used to be. On my most recent visit, I called ahead and was told my order would be ready in 15 minutes. I arrived after 15 minutes as instructed, but I still ended up waiting nearly an hour for my food. To make matters worse, while I was waiting after already paying, a party that had been seated after I arrived received their meals before I got mine. That was incredibly frustrating and made it seem like orders weren't being managed properly. The food quality also isn't what it used to be, and the new management seems extremely slow. It's unfortunate because this used to be one of my favorite places. I'm leaving this review up because I think people should know what to expect before coming here.
