    Banh Tet Ba Mau Man (Tricolor Savory Sticky Rice Cake with Pork)

    This review is long overdue. I love the banh Tet and banh Chung from Minh Phung. The parking is limited and the line can be long but the wait is worth it. The service is friendly in this family owned shop near Phuoc Loc Tho (Asian Garden Mall). There is quite a variety of banh Tet and banh Chung to choose from. I bought the banh Tet man and banh Chung man with pork belly. The sticky rice part is wonderfully chewy and tender. The mung portion is creamy. They are generous with the pork belly. Every slice has a good portion of pork belly. The rice cakes are wrapped well and tight that the cakes do not fall apart. The flavors are so well balanced. The texture combo is so delicious. I love pan frying slices of the banh Tet. Would love to come back and try the other varieties.

    Banh hoi Minh Phung is my go to spot to get fresh banh hoi. My family has been eating the banh hoi from Minh Phung for a while now and it's our go to banh hoi. The price for the banh hoi is actually cheaper than if you buy it at supermarket or at the bbq place. The price for banh hoi now as of 11/3/25 is $3.50.

    Reusable bag offered with multiple banh tet/chung purchase.

    I've gone here a few times to pick up traditional foods such as Banh Tet and Banh Chung for the Lunar New Year/Tet. It's a bit of a hole in the wall place, on a rather commercial/industrial street in bustling Little Saigon. Parking is extremely limited here - there are four spots in front of the bakery that is supposed to be for the bakery, but during the days leading up to Tet, this place is nothing less than a zoo getting in and out, and usually people end up grabbing those spots anyway whether or not they are actually shopping at the bakery. In any case, Minh Phung offers a selection of Banh Tet and Banh Chung - the cylinder shaped rice cake, and the square shaped rice cake. The "man" (does not refer to gender) version has mung beans and pork belly as it's filling - while the "chay" version is vegetarian. This bakery also offers the "3 mau" version - which stands for three colors - and is quite aesthetically pleasant. I don't know whether it's traditional, but I do know that the 3 mau version is more tedious to make because it requires three layers of different colors - so it might be better for gift giving. Sadly, since Tet is just a few days away, all their "chay"/vegetarian options were sold out. For Banh Tet/Banh Chung, if you buy enough, they'll give you a nifty reusable shopping bag. Friendly clerk - I was helped by the owner's son. I usually pick up enough to hand to close family/friends - and save one for myself to indulge in. The little bakery offers other traditional food items such as cha bon (dried shredded pork that you can put in rice porridge/congee), dua chua (pickled veggies). They take both cash and card.

    Got their Banh Chung and Gio for Tet and they were delicious. The Banh Chung was moist, chewy, and packed with lots of stuffing! Love how they gave us a reusable bag!

    Best banh tet with a perfect rice to filling ratio. It was still warm when I bought it! Location is slightly hidden, about a block behind the Asian Garden Mall, with a tiny parking lot of only a few spaces. They take credit card. Staff is friendly and fast!

    Pros: -best delicious vietnamese sticky rice for the same price as everywhere else -good friendly service -homey feel -accepts credit cards -small parking lot but 5min only -sells other food items and desserts -nice workers. Can even buy and ask to hold for you for a few hours -beautiful new year sticker designs -has vegetarian options -has rainbow color options -comes with bags to hold food in Cons: -might be a line during rush hours

    I love supporting family businesses. The majority of places you come across in Bolsa will be a "mom and pop" shop. However, this place stands out among the countless shops you see around here. Great prices and great quality. I pre order dozens of Banh Tet every year for Tet for my family who don't live in OC. They're located away from Bolsa Ave, so it's not too busy on their street! I buy a lot of things here, but their Fried Onions and Banh Hoi are my favorite!!

    With Chinese New Year coming up, I stopped into Minh Phung to order banh tet to give as gifts. They're famous for the delicious traditional rice sticks. The most popular one is the banh tet 3 mau, which has two different flavored rices. I recommend frying the slices. My favorite one is the banh tet chuoi (banana). It's so sweet and delicious! They're super busy this time of year, so order ahead. Aside from those, I also get banh hoi and banh canh here. It's made fresh in house apparently. If you come at the right time, the noodles are all warm. I've seen their product in supermarkets too. The store itself is on an industrial looking street surrounded by auto body shops and businesses. It's also right next to Asian garden mall so it gets pretty packed.

    So delicious!

    You can count on good Banh Chung and Banh Tet (Vietnamese sticky rice cake) here!! There are vegetarian options too! Love! We come here every year to order these cakes for Lunar New Year! The staff here is so nice and helpful! You get a homey vine here! Tips: you can get free calendars (with large orders?)

The chicken was crispy and the dipping sauce gave it that extra yummy goodness. The dish also came with a side of broth that had chicken bits in it, was nice to help digest your dish. I also loved that they gave you pickled veggies & fresh veggies. We also ordered the Loi's Fusion Saltado, upgraded the rice to garlic egg fried rice. The beef was soft and tender, the fries were nice and crispy and the fried rice was fresh. You 100% need to get the Thai Tea. A lot of place add too much cream/half and half diluting the tea flavor, they do not skimp on the actual tea in their drink. The color speaks for itself on the dark orange hue!

Not sure if it was just that night or if it's how their rice is always cooked, but the rice was on the drier side so I had pour soup on my rice or else it was too dry. Service was okay. I would give them another try. Maybe for their noodle soup dishes.

We were celebrating a very dear friend's 40th birthday and wanted her table to feel extra special. I reached out ahead of time to ask if we could bring our own tablecloth, dinner plate ware, and small florals to dress the table, very minimal -- and not only did they say yes, they were genuinely accommodating and warm about it. We had offered to handle all the cleanup ourselves (scraping off the food and taking it off, bringing home all the dirty dishes), but our waiter Vu went far above and beyond: after dinner, he offered to take our decorative plates to the kitchen to have them washed -- and they came back warm, dry, and spotless. That single gesture said everything about the kind of person he is and the culture of this restaurant. Vu was attentive, thoughtful, and made our entire table feel cared for all evening. The manager also stopped by a couple of times to check on us, which was such a lovely touch. When I had requested a quieter, more private area of the restaurant with less foot traffic, they delivered exactly that -- a cozy corner that felt like it was just ours for the night. And the food? Absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was wonderful. We also brought a homemade matcha cake from Sugar Farm Bakery, and we offered Vu and his team a slice -- they came back out to rave about it and thank us, which just warmed our hearts. This is the kind of restaurant that makes you feel like family. Whether you're coming for the incredible food or looking for the perfect place to host a meaningful celebration, Brodard Chateau is it. We are so grateful and will absolutely be back. Highly, highly recommend!

The sweetness of the grilled pork, the crispiness of the eggrolls wrapper bits, and the freshness of the vegetables pairs with the special sauce never fails to satisfy the craving. This time we tried their cheeseburger spring Roasted Duck spring rolls. I am not a duck fan so this was okay to me. The meat was well seasoned with the spices and the hoisin sauce was a nice balance. The crispy Vietnamese eggrolls were also a first and it was great! The meaty and crispiness of the eggrolls eaten like a lettuce wrap with the nuoc Cham sauce was delicious. This place always seems to be busy and rushed and can get a bit loud but the service is always great. They have a bar where you can grab some drinks while you wait. Their lychee martini is good. There is also a dessert display in the front where you check in which we haven't tried yet.

Over all those years, they have never disappointed me and continue to serve really good food. I usually get the beef brisket pho and it's really good. The noodles are just the right texture, the broth is clean and flavorful, and the meat tastes fresh and tender. Their dui bo is also very good, but usually runs out after 1:00 or 2:00 pm, since they only have a limited amount of this item every day. The meat is fall off the bone tender and has a more fatty flavor to it. It usually sits in some broth that absorbs that beefy and fatty flavor from the bone. A great addition to any bowl of pho. Alternatively, I sometimes also get the bun thit nuong and it's very good. The eggrolls it comes with is wrapped with rice paper, so when it's fried up, it has such a satisfying crunch and texture to it. The thit nuong is has a nice smokey, grilled flavor to it. The shrimps are okay as well. This is a very satisfying and filling dish, so if you're looking for a high volume dish, this may be the one to get. Expect long lines during peak hours. I can confirm though that the wait is worth it! Service is always very good. The ambiance on the inside is fine, very plain and unassuming in my opinion.
