Amazing! First time here and everything was almost perfect! - Ambience (5/5): clean, bright, and has a lot of seating. - Service (5/5): our table had two servers, and they were both wonderful. They were very attentive and friendly. Though we had a big party, they didn't extra charge us anything. - Food (4/5): We ordered many dishes, and they were all delicious. You should try everything on the menu! Only the Bo la lot was little dry, I wish it had a little more fat to make it juicier. Overall, I highly recommend this place, hope that they maintain this level of quality. read more

On the expensive side, but everything was high quality and flavorful! Despite this place being known for their ôc hot pot, I would actually recommend their BANH KHOT! Really fragrant and super flavorful! Tumeric and coconut crispy cups wrapped in herbs/lettuce? So yum. $18 is a steep price for 7 pieces though. The Bo Luc Lac Garlic Noodles were a stand out dish for me. On the greasy side, but very flavorful. Incredibly tender filet mignon perfectly seasoned and tossed in the noodles. The Fish Sauce Chicken Wings were also cooked just right. Crispy and saucy, but the chicken was juicy and tender too!!! Pieces varied a lot in size though. Some were really big or really small. read more

Had the dino beef rib with garlic noodles (on the menu, under the Fried Rice & Pan Fried Noodle section, Suon Bo Dino Ap Chao & Mi Toi). Positives: * Beef and garlic noodles are pretty good. * Restaurant interior is appealing and clean. Priced at $25. Cons: * I disliked the optional sauce it came with for the beef. After trying it, I put it aside. * Beef is pretty good but tad fatty. * Garlic noodles are pretty good but not as fresh as the garlic noodles at SJ Egg Roll. read more

Had their Dino Rib with Garlic Noodle, Five Spice Cornish Hen with Garlic Noodles and Banh Xeo Land Nuong. Their Banh Xeo crepe was unique. It was like eating pandan waffle but savory; had coconut flavor and somehow pandan taste too. Crepe had nice texture; was thin and crispy on the edges and outside. It did not have that cornstarch aftertaste nor the wet pancake texture. It came with shrimp and slices of pork along with different herbs (basil, cilantro, parilla, mint) , pickled carrots and lettuce leaves to wrap everything in. The sauce it came with was sweet nuoc mam (fish sauce) but flavored with lemon grass. The mixture of flavors just came together and created a complex taste of sweet, salty, citrusy and umami. BEST banh Xeo I've had and I don't even like banh xeo. The Dino Rib had short rib meat; same meat used in Korean Galbi. The meat was beefy, soy sauce and peppery flavor with a hint of sweet. Good portion of meat in the dish. Garlic noodles were also good; garlicky sweet and salty. The Cornish Hen was a bit dry. It had sweet and five spice flavor. Came with the same the same garlic noodle. Lemon Soda was also good. It tasted better than a regular lemonade. It reminds me of calamansi juice which tasted like lime and orange mixed together. They have both single entrees and food that can be shared. Overall, yummy food, quick service, nice staff, nicely decorated dining room. Must try. read more

Saw the buzz around this restaurant and decided to stop by Saturday night around 6:00pm for dinner. It was just my husband and I but the restaurant was bustling with large parties. The owner let us know it would be around a 25 min + wait but we ended up waiting for over an hour. I didn't fault him though since it is hard to gauge the flow especially during soft opening. By the time our table was almost ready, he was quoting a 1 + hour wait regardless of party size. Business is good :) The owner was super nice and he let us know he would rush our food order so we wouldn't have to wait longer. He kept his promise! We ordered the beef, calamari, and shrimp table top grill. I love how they marinated the proteins with lemongrass. The raw (veggies) were fresh and the mam nem sauce was heavy on the mam flavor and delicious. ($45) Also got an order of the mango salad with salt/chili grilled squid. So fresh and delicious!! ($25) I also couldn't resist ordering the Hong Kong style salt/pepper/garlic crab fried rice but my eyes were definitely bigger than my stomach! We ended up taking this home for dinner the next night! As you can see by the picture, it was super fresh and flavorful! ($48 seasonal price) Service was absolutely amazing, especially for a viet restaurant (if ya know ya know lol!). Someone was always around if we needed anything and they came to check on us a couple of times. I don't ask for much but appreciate their attentiveness and kindness! They are currently offering 10% off your meal for their opening which was nice. Total with discount and 18% tip =$140. I hope the quality and service stays top notch! I'll be back to try other dishes :) read more

I had dinner here last Friday with a couple of friends and it was tasty! There was quite a wait when we went, I think it was about 45+ minutes but given it was Friday and dinner time. While waiting for our table, my friends and I looked over the menu and it was very extensive. There were so many dishes we wanted to try. We ordered the following: Food: Mango Salad with Grilled Cuttlefish - 4/5 good amount of cuttlefish and a lot of mango Banh Khot - 5/5 I am surprised by how much I enjoyed the banh khot here. It was crispy yet soft and creamy and had a good size shrimp Salted Egg Spotted Babylonia Snails + Toasted Baguette 2/5 - This was the only dish I did not like. The snails taste frozen as I know you don't get fresh ones here but I did not like the sauce. Snails in Spicy Coconut Sauce 5/5 - My all time favorite snail dish. I will always order this if I see it on the menu. The coconut sauce is on the sweeter side here. Banh Hoi with Bo La Lop 5/5 - I didn't care much for the banh hoi but the bo la lop were flavorful and juicy! Bo Nuong Vi (beef and calamari) - 3/5 - Personally I would not order this at a restaurant but we were with friends who wanted to eat this. The calamari rings made it hard to bite through the spring roll. I prefer thicker strips so we are not overcooking them but again that is my preference. The marinated was nice but this dish was missing the butter. Mam Nam Sauce 5/5 - Let's take a moment to talk about the sauce that was severed with the bo nuong vi. It was perfectly balance, sweet, salty and pungent without being fishy. It taste exactly like how my mom makes her sauce. Very tasty! Drinks: We wanted to order some cocktails but they weren't available during their soft opening so we ordered the following: Pennywort with Coconut Cream - 5/5 Refreshing and the coconut cream adds a layer of deliciousness Sugarcane and Sour Sop - 4/5 Also very refreshing Overall, great restaurant with top service! Probably one of the most attentive service I have from a Vietnamese restaurant and the food came out super fast too! I think this will be added to our restaurant rotation list with the family. read more

I went here with my mom and she liked everything she ordered, so that says a lot. The foods were delish and very tasty. Each dish is greatly portion. The service is a bit slow and less attentive. They don't come and check if you need anything. The restaurant is nice. They are busy, even on a Monday. read more

Same owners as Pho 408! The owners are super friendly and came by to chat/check in on us a couple of times. I came by during their soft opening phase and thought the service was decent and the food was delicious! Also, there was a promo for 10% off, so definitely take advantage of that while you can! I had the cha muc boc com chay, oc mong tay nuong bo toi, and bo tom ca nuong. Total was about $100, which I thought was very reasonable consideeing the quality and quantity. I will be back again soon! read more

Today we had lunch at Làng Nướng, and I have to say... it was one of the BEST lunches we've ever had in San Jose! We ordered: 1) Lobster Garlic Noodles - Mì Xào Tôm Hùm = the best... 2) Gỏi Rau Muống + Xoài + Thịt Bò = the best... 3) Ốc Hấp với chả = rất tuyệt vời. 4) I ordered = Nước Mía + Dừa Tươi = trên cả tuyệt vời. 5) My husband ordered = Nước Mía Rau Má = rất tuyệt vời. 6) Flan = rất ngon. OMG... everything on the table tasted exceptional! Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I truly have to say, Làng Nướng is one of the BEST Vietnamese restaurants in San Jose. If you live in the Bay Area and haven't tried this restaurant yet, you really should try it at least once. I bet you will definitely be coming back many, many more times! And if you're visiting San Jose for vacation, put Làng Nướng on your list. A wonderful meal here may become one of your favorite food memories from San Jose. But I think there is something even more special behind the delicious food: the owner, Ms. Nguyet. Ms. Nguyet has a very good heart and cooking is truly her passion. You can tell that she doesn't cook simply to run a business, she cooks because she genuinely loves cooking and loves making people happy through her food. She opened this restaurant because of her passion, and you can taste that passion in every dish. She puts her heart into the food she prepares and serves to her customers. And maybe that is the secret: When food is made with passion and served from the heart, you can taste the difference. Thank sooooo much em Nguyệt and the Làng Nướng team, for such a wonderful and memorable lunch. We will definitely be back many more times ! read more

We walked by this restaurant near the claw machines and decided to come back and give it a try. We came for lunch on a Sunday during the World Cup and were seated right away. We were a little surprised there weren't any TVs to watch the games though. The restaurant and menu reminded me of Saigon Kitchen, and I later found out it's owned by the former owner, so I'm guessing they relocated here. They also had a 10% grand opening promo, which was a nice bonus. We ended up ordering way too much food but also finishing it all The space is a little smaller, but it's more modern, and I loved that the tables have built-in BBQ grills in the center. Everything we ordered was delicious! Our absolute favorite was the mango salad topped with fried fish, literally chef's kiss. The salt and pepper squid was also amazing. We also tried one of their most popular dishes, the DIY combo spring rolls with beef, squid, and shrimp, where you cook everything yourself. It was fun, fresh, and so tasty. Overall, everything was flavorful, and we left very satisfied. We'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu! read more

Newly opened restaurant in VN town. Servers are friendly and fast. Large restaurant with lots of tables. It used to be the hot pot restaurant. I order beef and fish to grill with mắm nêm and it was delicious. Beef was plentiful and tender and tasted better than the fish imo. Oc Buou nhoi thit was good but I didn't enjoy the dipping fish sauce. Heard their rice dishes and salads are good. Will be back to try more. 10% off special until 8/10! read more

Friday was my son's birthday, and since he loves Vietnamese food, I searched Yelp for the highest-rated new restaurants. That's how we discovered Làng Nướng, which had just celebrated its soft opening less than a week ago. We ordered the grilled crispy fish, lobster with garlic butter noodles, and bánh hỏi bò lá lốt. Every dish exceeded our expectations. The grilled fish had incredibly crispy skin while remaining moist and flavorful inside. The lobster with garlic butter noodles was rich, fragrant, and absolutely delicious. The bánh hỏi bò lá lốt was fresh, authentic, and perfectly seasoned. The service was impressively fast and attentive. Even though the restaurant was busy with its soft opening, we never felt rushed or had to wait long for our food. The staff was warm, welcoming, and made our celebration even more enjoyable. The portions were very generous, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable. There were four of us, and we still had plenty left to take home. For a restaurant that's only been open for a few days, Làng Nướng has made an outstanding first impression. Delicious food, excellent service, generous portions, and great value. We will definitely be back. Highly recommended! read more

Drove by this spot in vn town, use to be a hotpot place. We went inside and oh man the first thing we see was the grill beef, shrimp, and squid. We grew up eating this so for sure we had to try it. The menu is pretty extensive, with almost every Vietnamese item you can think of except pho, bun bo hue, banh canh, maybe I didn't look carefully but I call it like I see it. The service is top notch, they gave us extra peppers, veggies, rice paper per our request. The food was amazing, my wife kept saying it remind her of Saigon. They even had Saigon beer and live karaoke across the street, giving us vn vibes without the vn heat. We will for sure be back to try all the other items. read more

Really delicious The vinegar and fermented shrimp paste soups with dual cooking pot and making your own rice paper wraps was fun and oh so tasty - lettuce herbs daikon carrot cucumber noodles so good. And raw fish to cook in the soup and onion and 2 sauces were FIRE! Friends soft shell crab and rice was delicious too ! read more

Both food and service are great, a bit of long wait but at the end it's worth. I will definitely come back again to try new dishes. Cơm chiên la sen cua XO sauces & bánh hỏi bo la lot are good. The skin of cá nướng da gion is a bit tough to chew on, not crispy so that is why i gave the restaurant 4 instead of 5. read more
