Once awhile I will have cravings for sweet and sour chicken and fried rice. Since I was on the phone with a friend, I suggested we meet at the restaurant by her house. The employees knew her when we walked in. Restaurant is located in a shopping area with Huge parking lot. Dining area is big, they can accommodate large and small parties. They have vietnamese and Chinese food. read more

Pink Flower is a great place to get your Vietnamese food fix! They have lunch specials so you can dine for less and don't get a huge portion. They have online ordering which makes it easy to run and pick up your food. Today I tried the beef pho and spring rolls. The pho is pretty good, I wouldn't say its the best that I've had. The spring rolls are massive and came with a peanut sauce which was very good. You could easily share this meal between 2 people! read more

My husband and I always see this place because we go to Aldi. We decided to check it out since it's pretty close to home. We went on a Friday night for dinner and the place was pretty empty. We got sat right away by the friendly wait staff. There's not much ambiance to this place. Food wasn't great but it wasn't terrible. Nothing really stood out besides the spring rolls and peanut sauce. I'm not sure we'd go back again. read more

My son was told of a yummy Vietnamese restaurant we should try out, so that's what we did tonight. The restaurant had a lot of seating and a not a lot of ambiance. The service was good though. Their menu is huge, offering at least 100 items, with a nice description of eat item. The Egg Roll was a 2 star egg roll though. We have had so many egg rolls this year that trump these. The rest of the appetizers were also 2 star. My son really liked his Beef Curry. I normally don't like curry much, but also thought his dish was much better than mine. I had the Kung Pao Beef, which the presentation alone was off putting. It tasted ok though, but nothing that I will order again. Of all the Vietnamese restaurants we had tried in the past few months, this was our least favorite. read more

Ordered pick up. Counter help could not initially find the order although it was sitting in front of them. Ordered Vegtable Egg Foo young. Imagine my surprise that it was just a take out container of vegetables, not the typical patty style. That was a disappointment. Food came in separate containers which did not allow me too combine my rice and chicken. The whole experience was different and disappointing. I was visiting so I should say that my expectations were different. read more

Love the wonton soup when I am feeling ill. the service is always wonderful and the decor lovely.

Our favorite Vietnamese restaurant in the north suburbs! They have a nice size dine In restaurant and always welcome to order takeout. Service is good and friendly, ambiance is casual and the food is amazing! I highly recommend the egg rolls and yes I think the are better than the competitors. We have tried many things on the menu but we keep going back to the hot n spicy beef, chicken low mein and chicken chow mein; also don't forget to choose your spice level as they are happy to accommodate from mild to super spicy. You will not be disappointed read more

The only way to get good service is if you're a regular. The egg rolls are great. Kung pao chicken was good. Chicken pho was good. So with that being said I probably won't ever dine in again. The one waitress working seemed nice but was kind of cold to us. I asked for fried rice in substitute for white and I got yellow rice. She said that's what you get when you sub it for the white rice. I wouldn't order the fried rice again. Very plain and not worth the up-charge. The atmosphere was eerily quiet and the chairs were very uncomfortable. The tables are also lower then expected. There aren't really any decorations other than two hanging fish in the entrance and a small wind chime by the door. Overall, not super welcoming. read more

Stumble across this restaurant...when I was in the area (New Brighton) for my cat's Vet appointment and we had a considerable amount to wait in the car after they took her for the appointment and it was dinner time! We drove one block down the street and found this restaurant, open for takeout only since it is Pandemic times. It's located inside a mall though and plenty of bench seating inside so we enjoyed dinner there. Asked what the recommended Vietnamese salad was...and they said Noodle salad with beef which came with eggroll. It was delish! Will be back when in the area again! read more

Excellent thin wrap egg rolls. Great Vietnamese food choices from the second generation from their long running restaurant. We've been getting food from Pink Flower for more than 25 years. read more

Vietnamese food is all the rage right now, healthy, hearty and easy, even on picky people, since we have some authentic options here in Minnesota I decided to give it a try. The soups are usually beyond compare, but its hard to go wrong, it's just sort of "better" than the other options. Vietnamese cuisine is highly influenced by French colonization and their quality and savor shows this. The easiest go to is a bowl of Vietnamese soup (phö) there is a basic chicken or meat version and a traditional broth home made and secret to each family that's better than any soup you have ever had. Served with some loose basil, and some lime and sprouts on the side, you feel warm and filled and like you can survive a another double shift. There is some sauces too, highly personalizable flavors, but basically perfected already so you don't have to worry about it. During Covid it is so important to try to find something interesting to do, and something inspiring to eat. For me sometimes trying new things is the way and the places that have the food that we need are the most under threat. I was lucky enough to be passing by Pink Flower and noticed the tell tale signs of a place with perfected and underpriced Phö and and immediately jumped at it, googled, called found they were still open and got a to-go order. In their shopping mall, Pink Flower stands out like a diamond in the rough. WIth their own entrance, its such a nice place. The family that run the restaurant are really pleasant and helpful for those who are unfamiliar with their offerings. I honestly recommend eating here, for a number of philosophical reasons but fundamentally this is one, darn good bowl of soup. Check it out. It had to be said. read more

Our go to place. Great egg rolls. Friendly staff (they know our usuals). Highly recommend!

Super friendly and fast service. The food was good, fresh and has big portions. Would highly recommend

What a nice lil place, was really busy with to go orders! The staff was very pleasant and polite. I got Pho and it was yummy! The broth was some of the BEST I have ever had! the noodles were a fair portion and the shrimp and squid were good. I was a lil bummed that I got only 3 shrimp (medium sized at best) and 3 scallops (small) but they were very yummy! I have a VERY good Vietnamese place here in Duluth - Phoholic! and I measure all other places against them.. This place came in a close second and I would recommend it if you in the area. Prices were pretty good for the value and the service was top notch, the owner came over and chatted with us and was very nice! I will be back as I go to the Twin Cities fairly often! read more

Best egg rolls I have ever tried.... Stopped by there on my way home and I was not disappointed. But the egg rolls were my fave!!

A good friend of mine who moved to Las Vegas was in town and loves pink flower. With him being back of course we had to go to one of his favorite places to eat and this surprisingly was my first time being there. The reason why I'm giving this a three star review is because the five other people with me all enjoyed their meals. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy mine as much as they did. I ordered the C5, sweet-and-sour chicken with a side of fried rice. The outer layer of the chicken was very thick and a little chewy with a small piece of chicken inside, and the sweet-and-sour sauce tasted a little off to me. It wasn't terrific first experience for me as I couldn't finish the chicken. The fried rice on the side was very plain and needed a good amount of soy sauce to have some flavor. I'm not gonna knock it though I'll definitely be back in the future. The staff and owners were very friendly and the service was fast and great. The menu is very large so I'm sure there's going to be quite a few items that I will be able to enjoy when I go back. I would recommend trying this location if ever in Moundsview Minnesota bring a friend or two! Maybe don't try the C5 :) read more

We tried the egg rolls, pho, cream cheese puffs and spicy chicken. Everything was very tasty and service was quick!

This was my first time ordering takeout and it was terrific! I ordered the and it was great! hot and spicy chicken

Ordered from here a few times since we moved to the area & have had a good meal each time. Really like the Pink Flower egg rolls. Every pick up order has been ready in under 20 min. We've ordered beef & potatoes a few times, honey walnut shrimp, & the five-spice pork (Mild was a step or two above "Minnesota mild"). Plan on trying pho the next time read more

Our family gets takeout from here semi-regularly. We typically get pho and cream cheese puffs. They do NOT skimp on the cream cream. Love them. read more

I went here with some coworkers for lunch the other day. It was average. My coworkers hyped up the egg rolls which I would say were quite good. The pho was average. Nothing special about it, broth didn't have much flavor. I feel for the price you pay the bowl wasn't that great of a deal. There are many other pho places around that give you better sizes for your money's worth. I would say skip the pho. The lunch specials or combination meals seem like your best bet. You get some sides and and entree. The egg rolls were crispy and filled pretty full! I would go again just for egg rolls. The service was fast and she was nice! read more

We love Pink Flower. A family run business, you see grandparents helping and the kids doing homework or just hanging out at a back table. Food is always fresh and they are very knowledgable about the menu. My hubby loves the Pho. I thinknthe cream cheese puffs are the best around. The decore is simple and was updated a shory time ago. The seem to do a brisk pick-up business. read more

Pink Flower has an extensive menu but I had the same thing both times I was there - Bun Bo Hue! Highly recommend you try their version. Very well made with great broth. You can get it with different heat levels. I think it's a relatively new item as it is penciled in on the menu. Really glad they added this. Also tried the spring rolls which were just ok. Hot tea is just $1. Service was fast and pleasant both times I was there for lunch. read more

I'm going to start with the good, the Eggrolls are always the best of the best! Now to the bad. I've coming here for years and the food has progressively gotten worse. For example, the spring rolls tonight consisted of nothing but vermicelli noodles, shrimp and lettuce that was way past its prime. No thai basil, mint, cilantro or pork, plus I bit into something gelatinous and that was it for me. Waste of money. Now onto the egg roll Bun. Again with a mountain of vermicelli and the aforementioned bad lettuce. No cucumber or mint. Are restaurants getting lazy or do they think we don't know the difference between good and bad Vietnamese food? read more

I met my parents here for dinner before seeing a movie at Wynnsong theater close by. It's an overall average place for Vietnamese and American Chinese dishes. We were the only table and only after we had started eating some more people trickled in for dine in and take out orders. I ordered the Curry Beef- it was decent, good spice, beef was tender and onions had a nice crunch. The other dishes ordered were a #7 combo (sweet and sour chicken with egg rolls, chicken wings, cheese puffs), Mock Duck and Potatoes, and a Seafood Pho. They accidentally made us a Vegetable Pho instead... My dad was gracious enough to eat it anyway so as not to waste food and we let the server know so she wouldn't charge us for the Seafood pho instead. The mock duck tasted tinny like it was straight out of the can and hadn't been rinsed with water. Otherwise the potatoes and sauce were tasty, it would be better if we ordered the dish with beef. The pho broth was ok. If I came here again I would stick to the Vietnamese part of the menu, the items in the combo were edible but that's about it. The server was friendly and very apologetic about the pho mix up. Unfortunately neither of the 2 workers there came by once to refill our empty water glasses. I would come back and give it another try but the meal was underwhelming. The good company I was with made it a better experience than it would have been otherwise. read more

Pink Flower Vietnamese Restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Mounds View, Minnesota

After decades of living in the area we just realized what we've been missing all these years! We have now become regulars ordering at least weekly and it is my youngest sons all time favorite place to order takeout from. The staff has always greeted us in a friendly manner even before we became regulars. My favorite items on the menu are the egg rolls, they are better than their competitors, and the Vietnamese style chicken chow mein; I love the tiny crunchy noodles and all of the vegetables with the traditional chow mein taste. My son loves the fried rice and battered fried chicken wings. Food is reasonably priced, portion sizes good and food has always been hot and fresh. read more

Lunch combo was supposed to come with fried rice. It was not. Just a little color and certainly mostly tasteless. General Tao chicken as well was very bland. I have had the Pho there and am pleased to report it was much better. Like everywhere prices have increased substantially. Certainly, there are better but also there are worse. read more

We stopped in for dinner and had our choice of seating. Only two other tables were occupied. The staff were friendly and brought us water and menus within a few seconds of us being seated. We had takeout from this place in the past and dined in once before. My husband likes their pho. My son and I ordered Kung pow chicken and our other son ordered the sweet and sour chicken. We also had appetizers of egg rolls and cream cheese wontons. The appetizers were just ok. Not a whole lot of flavor in the egg rolls and the cream cheese wontons were really sweet and probably didn't need the dipping sauce which was a gelatinous syrupy mixture. My sons sweet and sour chicken was breaded deep fried chicken doused with the same dipping sauce as the cream cheese wontons. It also didn't come with any vegetables but came with yellow rice. Our Kung pow chicken had a ton of peanuts and diced water chestnuts. The flavor was ok and the spice level was good. I ordered it hot spice. My husband likes their pho. I think they could give a bit more broth in the pho. Their prices are great. Average is about $7. Their takeout business is a constant revolving door. Tons of people coming in for that. However, there are so many other places we think the food is better. I don't think we will be back here because we have tried three times and just don't think the food is worth it. read more

Pink Flower Vietnamese Restaurant - King Pow Chicken - Vietnamese Near Me - Mounds View, Minnesota

I've been on the fence about the stars I would throw Pink Flower's way. The food and service has been inconsistent (highs and lows), but I guess the fact that I keep coming back means "I'm a fan", right? (I guess.) Service: Sometimes it's super friendly, whether for take-out or dine-in, but it can also be very dismissive. One time I came in and was not checked on once after I received my meal, and eventually had to flag down someone to get my check. PS there was only 1 other patron in there. Food: I usually go in for their pho (rice noodles) or mi (egg noodles). They have 6 varieties of pho, and you get a big ass bowl for $7! I've had no complaints, it's pretty good. My boyfriend is through-the-roof for their sesame chicken - it's crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the sauce isn't too tacky like most. The egg rolls are pretty good too! However, I am always full of regret when I order the spring rolls. I've tried both of them and they left me in a sad spring roll stupor - they're mostly vermicelli noodles and iceberg lettuce, and the protein is very dry and doesn't taste fresh. One time I didn't even want to continue eating my serving, which is something I am NOT known to do. But overall, they offer a great value at a convenient location for my boyfriend and I, so we'll keep coming back. Plus, I would not risk getting in between my bf and sesame chicken. read more

This is the BEST Vientamese place in town! Their egg rolls and HUGE cream cheese puffs (wontons) are handmade everyday. All their food and sauces is home made (nothing "mass manufactured" that I could tell. Their sauces are fantastic. I'm a regular and I always order the same things (so does my large family--7+ people) and the waitresses always know our order...we don't have to say anything. They bring our beverages and our appetizers and food. The same family has run this for years. Exceptional service...we count them as our own family now they are so fantastic....and they count us as ours... You will not find a better place in town, in food, service or atmosphere! read more

I love any kind of SE Asian food, and good Vietnamese usually tops my list. This place is not the first place i would go to, but I work in the area, have limited delivery options, and I 'm not a fan of the fast food options in the area. So, this little family owned restaurant in a nondescript strip mall off highway 10 is the only Vietnamese/Asian Style restaurant in the immediate area. The decor is pretty typical of a small space, multi-person seated Asian restaurant, and the place is usually pretty clean and kept up well. I have had most everything on the menu, and although my order is usually prepared fresh and quickly, the food is pretty flavorless and bland on its own. The spring rolls are bland with no mint flavor, the peanut sauce is ok - needs more peanut flavor and more salt. The Rice noodle dishes I have had, including the Pho, have been bland, and with the exception of the egg rolls and the hot and sour soup, the food in general, although tasty enough I wouldn't turn it away, leaves me longing for the flavors I experience at other restaurants closer to Minneapolis. Pros: Clean, fast, decent service, average food. Cons: Average food that is flavorless. read more

This place is very fast and serves really great noodles. Our family has ordered several times. I love their tofu and vegetable soup! At times we have had our orders mixed up (received spring rolls instead of egg rolls) however we didn't even take them back because they were a delicious mistake. Will be continuing to order from here! read more

Great food and enjoy supporting small business! Customer service is always fantastic!

I only give this place two stars because the service was great, otherwise, the food wasn't too good. After trying Four different suburbian vietnamese restaurants I have learned my lesson: If I want real, good tasting, vietnamese food I have to go the the city. This restaurant at least had asians working there, but the food wasn't good, incuding the Pho Tai, which even if an asian restaurant has bad egg rolls, the Pho is usually good. Not at Pink Flower. Egg rolls, bad flavor, but they were crunchy! Lo mein, no good. Pho Tai, no good. Fortune cookie (BTW this is a vietnamese restaurant NOT chinese) good. Great service but they have become what americans want, cheap food that doesn't taste too much different from something they could make at home, but is different enough that we feel proud of ourselves because we like another cultures food! If you want true vietnamese you need to go to a hole-in-the-wall in the city, (not mia village or Ngon, etc, etc) If there are silverware ON the table, leave. read more
