It's a great place to grab party trays such as noodles, salads (goi), chicken wings, fried rice, etc. Make sure you bring cash. Pro tip: call to order ahead and beware of orders on holidays because wait time is not what is promised. Expect to wait for 30-45 min after your pick up time. My favorites are their wings with fish sauce, grilled pork, fried rice cake with pork floss, and goi sen. I did not take pictures but will add in the future. read more

+ Bustling to-go food tray store. + The folks LOVE the fish-sauce-style chicken wings. Flavorful and crunchy. Always a hit at potlucks. . This place is NOT a restaurant: no tables and chairs to sit at and eat. - Man, yesterday was PACKED. Don't mind the Super Bowl/LUNY festivities. For local cultural holidays, prob better to order somewhere else. - Huge but CROWDED parking lot. Slow cars galore. I generally avoid shopping here. - Cash only. read more

This is my old school to-go viet place. I know they don't have the best ratings, but really, this is home cooked street food the way I remember it. Cash only. The do put out trays of food every morning but if you want a guarantee of a dish, just call and order. The line always moves quick and there is no seating or dine in. Closes at 6pm most days. read more

My husband and I visited Lam Van for the first time this past Saturday, 10/18/2025 at around 3:30 PM. The store is small but packed with all kinds of packaged foods to go. If you're looking for variety and authentic Vietnamese finds, this place definitely delivers. However, the tight space made it feel a bit claustrophobic, especially with multiple customers coming in all at once. There's not much room to walk or explore everything that they have to offer. We picked up the following: Large Goi Sen Sua Tom Thit (Lotus Salad) - $35 as of Oct. 2025 - This hits the spot and is pretty tasty on a hot day. The family gobbled this up. It comes with shrimp, lotus root stems, pickled carrots, celery, thin pork slices, jellyfish, crushed peanuts, and fish sauce dressing. I just wish they added more jellyfish since I love those textures and taste. My sister in law has also previously picked up bánh nam, Vietnamese Steamed Rice Dumplings, that my husband and I both enjoy. Remember, this place is Cash Only! read more

Wow! What an EPIC spot to grab your favorite Vietnamese food dishes on the go! My favorite spot in this plaza - Kim Huong - didn't have any spring rolls yesterday, so I wandered the plaza to see where I could get some - walked into Lam Van just a few steps away and was blown away by all the different sorts of Vietnamese delicacies - including spring rolls - that they had! There's plate sizes of all sorts - from individual servings, to small servings - to massive trays. They had all the favorites like spring rolls, egg rolls, fried noodle trays, banh beo, banh cuon, banh bot lot - to more party type dishes like bo la lot - one of my favorite dishes that you'd usually find at Bo 7 mon restaurants. They have nem nuong and cha lua for sale, as well as a decent display of crispy wings - which I'm bummed I didn't try any since the other reviewers mentioned how yummy they were - I just wanted to grab brunch and get out. The spring rolls I picked up were fresh, each bite dipped into the rich peanut/hoison sauce was full of flavor. The meat to veggie/roll ratio was great. The cafe sua da was awesome. Strong and long-lasting - the flavor was still present over an hour later when I finally managed to finish it after a morning full of errands. By the way - this place gets crowded quick. And it really is standing room only/grab and go type. There's no seating inside or outside. Cash only. No cards are accepted. The owner was prompt and professional. read more

Got dam Lam Van.. Chicken wings!! That's it. That's the review. Go get em. Delicious, caramelized, crispy, sweet, salty, umami, fish sauce-y.. the dish at any party that makes everyone ask "what are these and where do I get them?" You also need cash. And a Vietnamese speaker. No English menu. This is a true IYKYK spot. read more

This is my go to food to go spot in bolsa area! The ladies working are always so friendly! I enjoy the fried banana, egg rolls, plus spring rolls that they have! There's other yummy pre packaged items but those are the three main things I come here for! CASH ONLY read more

Our family has been ordering here for years! Everything we've had there is pretty bomb so far. We usually order the crab thin clear noodle dish and bo la lot! Those are the top dishes never any leftovers!! And the papaya salads here are good too! We ordered beforehand but they do have party trays available on site. So if you're in a rush or a pinch you can just grab and go! I'm always in a rush so I never get a chance to look around but it's a small compact place and can get crowded so be aware. But plenty of parking and a quick on the go place! read more

I'm surprised of the lower ratings for this vietnamese deli/food to go shop. They have many choices of catering items and tray, pre-prepared foods. Most of times still warm as they bring those out throughout the day and many on the tables ready to pick up and go. I always get the banh nam, vermicelli glass noodles with shrimp and crab meat. Better quality than most of them in the area. Egg rolls are also good. Many choices to select from if you don't have time to cook for some larger size party and/or events. read more

One of my go to spot for ordering Vietnamese party trays. Call in your order in advance or you can choose from the premade selection they have displayed on a table. Bring cash. read more

Great for party size chicken wings and egg rolls. I have been here plenty of times when I want to bring a tray of wings or egg rolls. They raised the price to, I believe either $60 or $65 per tray now but the quality is still the same. It is cash only I believe and they really insist you bring your receipt when picking up the food if you prepaid, which is understandable. I think the wings here better than other places! read more

Their chicken wings are super yummy. Butte or fish sauce but you need to order ahead. They only sell them in trays and they want cash. Sometimes they won't make anymore that day. Food to go. Not fancy and they speak more Vietnamese. read more

Hôm qua mình order 2 phần cháo lòng togo. Ko hiểu làm ăn kiểu gì mà cháo thì nguội ngắt như mới múc từ tủ lạnh rồi pack cho khách. Lòng thì hôi như là đồ cũ...sẽ không bao giờ trở lại để thử món khác! read more

Fish sauce chicken wings is bomb here! They had a ton of other party tray items, but we came for the fish sauce chicken wings and everyone loved it. Good customer service and it was fast. The shop is small so be mindful of others who are waiting in line to order/pay. read more

This place has been here for ages and well known for Hue (middle VN) foods. They cater for big portion of foods but do sell certain dishes in small portions. I'm here to pick up couple try of fried noodle and nem nuong for family gardening. If you order party tray then definitely a great deal but if you buy individually then the price is abit high. The quality wise, just decent and consistent favor since the 80s, which mean they don't upgraded or updated - which can be a good thing or can be bad thing. The noodle is abit oily and abit salty and the nem nuong is just bland, even with their dipping sauce. I also got small portions of 2 different fried fish case and both are abit salty for my taste. Also I got their egg rolls which is good (still oily - soaked the paper bag), and the fried banana (which the banana is still rough, not soft and too much oil - soaked the paper bag and when I heated in the oven, more oil came out. Service wise, it was fine when I ordered, but I did noticed just a tag of not being nice to certain folks (their excuse was they are regular customers since someone asked). If you have a family harder and wanted Hue foods with decent prices and big portions then this would be the place but if you just want small portion then I would suggest to go to restaurants catering for Hue foods for better foods, quality and services but the price can be high. read more

Very popular for "fast food". If you order the fish sauce chicken wings for a party, just know they often have to be ordered in advance. Was very busy on a weekend. Ladies in the phone mostly only speak viet and can be gruff, which I find is normal for a lot of viet restaurants. read more

The food tastes good at reasonable prices (not cheap but not highly cost). The store only takes cash. Always busy and long line, especially on weekend. Must call in (pre-order) for the chicken wings tray. The rest food trays are most likely available when you're at the store. read more

The wings were a hit for a teenager party! They taste even more amazing the next day using the air fryer. We didn't like the nem nuong rolls (skip) read more

Good amount of options and good food. Ordered a few trays of food for a party, great deal. Will be back to order again.

Reliable order system, always easy to grab a quick tray on your way to a potluck event. The only setback is that they are cash only.

This is one of my go-to Vietnamese catering places. I usually order the fried chicken wings, fried rice, fried noodles, and ingredients for porridge. Service is decent. Some ladies are kind of impatient on the phone, but most of the time they're nice enough. Not much ambiance here. No sit-downs just take-outs. read more

the food is so good but the service is so bad. total rip off even when buying in bulk and she wouldn't even give me 2 sauces when i ordered 50 rolls. last time i came i ordered 1 tray (25 rolls) and got 1 sauce. should've gotten 2 sauces but instead packed all of it into one tray. total rip off and the lady is so rude! never coming back. gonna go next door instead. read more

Lam Van - egg rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - Westminster, California

I visited on a Thursday afternoon. It wasn't too busy. I did not call ahead but was able to order still and pick up same day. I ordered ga chien nuoc mam (fish sauce fried chicken wings). I ordered the smaller tray it was $45. It was about a 25 minute wait. Paid and got a receipt to come back later. It is a cash only establishment and the workers are very nice. When I came back my wings were done as quoted and they were piping hot which I loved it means the food was fresh. They packed the tray with chicken wings well worth the price. These wings are delicious my absolute favorite. They have the crunchiest batter and a savory sticky sauce great being paired with rice. I highly recommended this business for their wings you won't regret it! Side note I have tried their egg rolls at a party before they are just okay. read more

The best fish sauce wings! So crispy and flavorful, great to bring to potlucks and parties!

Ordered a medium tray of Lotus salad. It turned out to be more like 3/4 tray because they loaded the remaining space with the sauce container and peanuts. What a rip off read more

Lam Van - 1/4 the space of the large Lotus salad was loaded with the sauce container and peanuts. Seriously? What a rip off - Vietnamese Near Me - Westminster, California

Great spot to get your local viet catering. I'm no even Vietnamese but I find this spot so clutch. So stress free! Delivers good food and best bang for your buck in the area. Got their chicken wings, salt pepper shrimp, papaya salad, chow mein, shaken beef. Take not it's cash only here And don't expect anything nice. It's literally a hole in the wall spot. Overall would recommend for your next party or get together read more

Serious comfort food for serious get-together or impromptu party. This place is the go-to for many beloved dishes that we grew up eating in Vietnam. Most of their food can be purchased throughout the day until closing time, but some items need advance order like chicken wings or large trays of noodles, fried rice etc. Pricing is reasonably cheap. Parking is easy but you will often find rude drivers that just literally parked behind another parked car blocking traffic while they pick up their orders, but overall it's an easy in-and-out process. Most of their menu is good except for the egg rolls. One surprising item that is insanely delicious (imo) is their fried bananas. I never had the chance to come in the store when they're freshly made, but they're just as good after 5-10 minutes in the air fryer the next day. In fact, I think they're even better tasting after several minutes in the fryer. read more

I love this spot for party tray Vietnamese chicken wings! They have butter garlic or fish sauce. It comes in 2 sizes. Double check, but I believe 45 for the smaller tray and 90$ for the larger tray. I love that you can phone your order in advance for pick up! Every time I come there's always a line but it moves pretty quick. I've also tried their party trays for Banh Beo. Pretty good and reasonably priced too! read more

I moved to OC from Sac and have been looking for party to go food trays and small to go food. A lady I watch on YouTube recommended this place so I had to try it out for myself. Initially I went on a holiday weekend and this place was packed! People order their chicken wings and dishes ahead of time. My favorite thing to get here is their banh bot lot. I think it was around $30 for the big tray with 50 pieces? Either way I'll definitely come back to try the other dishes and report back. Bring cash! If you didn't order ahead, they still have a lot of food freshly prepared for you to pick up. Sometimes if they're busy, there's two lines: one for pickup/order food and the second to grab to go food trays/plates. read more

Tried this place out after a friend brought the chicken wings to a potluck. These are hands down the best chicken wings I have ever had and will continue to order from this place for future parties! Definitely recommend calling a day before to place the order. read more

Foods are good, but service is bad. There is the guy treat customers like we come to beg for foods, some customers,including me say out loud, we are buying, not begging. So, instead of a regular customer, I will buy less at this store, go buy somewhere else. Hope he changes his attitude, before the store goes down. Sorry. read more

We really liked the fish sauce chicken wings here my cousin ordered for kids party. I placed an order for one tray for pick up on 12/24 for 4pm.. my order was still not ready at 530, so I ended up buying something premade already made there. Was so disappointed because we really wanted to try the chicken again and let our family try it. read more

If you are hosting a party and want to get something fast, delicious, consistent quality food, this is THE PLACE to go in OC for finger Vietnamese food. My go to has always been chicken wings and egg rolls. Cheap, fast service. Yes, you do have to call in advance to place an order because they can't cook the food on the spot right after you order and deliver the tray in 20-30 minutes. They're just simply too busy to provide the "crème de la crème" kinda service but you will always count on the quality and quick pickup. Minus the long line of other people also there to order/pick up their orders. There are other items that they do cook in advance like fried rice to pick up on the spot if you run out of time and didn't call. Study the menu prior to calling to order. They won't have time to explain to you what options they offer. The menu is huge. Google what the dishes are. Honestly just try everything on the menu. read more

The tray of fish sauce chicken wings for $45 is delicious, but the customer service is absolutely terrible! I had placed an order in advance for pick up with my name as "Vivian." The lady then said that my name was too difficult, so that she had to put a random name instead as "Thanh." She was very rude and disrespectful. The day that I came to pick up the order at 4:00PM, I had already paid. The staff was not on time. I had to wait so long. After waiting for 30+ minutes, I checked in to see how much longer and the lady asked me to pay again. I asked her why would I need to pay again when I had already paid? Overall, the shop is extremely small. You literally have to bump into people to get in and out. The staff is extremely unprofessional, rude, and disrespectful. Although the fish sauce chicken wings are really good, I don't think that it is worth going through that experience again!!! read more

Super great choices on party trays. I recommend their foods. Bo la lot is a hit and nem Cuon is also really good!! Service is fast and nice!! read more

I was shocked by how rude they were. Is it really that hard to simply let customers know if they need to pay, wait, or if their food is ready? And yet, they behaved like that when speaking to customers. As young generation who wants to be a simple customer buying food. Never come back! So today my dad told me to come to buy food so this is the first time coming here. I, along with many others, waited a very long time to buy food, but the owner or staff there seemed to ignore us and didn't take our orders?! They even argued with previous customers and their attitude were arrogant and disrespectful. What kind of business behavior like this ? People waited for a long time, even those who ordered a week in advance, and some had to wait over an hour and a half without receiving their food. Super unorganized and rude. I asked if they sold blood pudding and wanted to buy some extra rolls, but the woman there completely ignored me and didn't even bother replying, no matter how many times I asked. I was totally shocked!! read more

Don't come here. These people are rude! They told me they don't take phone orders and that I need to come in, and so I walked in and they basically said oh we can't cook anymore fried chicken. read more

Small shop. Best for to go items Good if you're looking for a dish to bring to a party.

I had things wings at a party and they are Amazing!! Wow Wow I can't wait to order for the 4th of July!! Share with friends
