    I'm quite picky when it comes to Viet food, but this place exceeded my expectations. Came here on a Saturday, so it was quite busy. It's a plus that it's connected to a grocery store too. Everything in the restaurant screams Vietnamese lol, but what sold me was their menu. They have specialty dishes that are usually not at typical Viet restaurants (banh canh cua, etc). I had the bun bo hue because it's my go-to to gauge how good a Viet restaurant it. $16 for a bowl with pork hock is fair. There was also pork blood, so you know it's the real deal. I could taste the deep shrimp paste flavor and pineapple in the broth. That's a good sign. We also ordered an appetizer plate with egg rolls, spring rolls, and chicken wings. Overall, great place to go if you're craving some Viet food and can also get some grocery shopping done. I definitely want to try other things on the menu.

    Nice little place to make your lips a little greasy and if you know anything about pho that's my favorite way

    Pho Tai, Nam.  Sooooooooo good.

    Incredible Vietnamese egg rolls. Light crispy crunchy wrapper, stuffed with rice thread, cabbage, ground beef and other goodness. Some of the best I've had here in the Twin Cities. My main dish was Pho Tai Nam. Fresh rice noodle with just the right amount of firmness. Savory clear beef broth, fresh green onion, cilantro, bean sprouts, tender beef and flank. Delightful. On note on the restaurant itself: it's located insider/ adjacent to Saigon Market. The place is simple, clean, brightly lit. It was very busy when I arrived (all but one table was full) , but I was greeted and seated very quickly. The servers hustle!!! Running from table to kitchen. My son has basketball practice around the corner on Mondays. I WILL be back!

    Pork and shrimp crepe

    This place has great chow. My wife likes the special pho, spicy beef soup, and the crepes. It's always busy.

    Fantastic food. Super impressed with everything. We will be going back for sure. Felt very authentic. The house made chili oil was out of this world hot. Which I loved!!

    Menu as of 8/28

    Located to the right of the market, there is a sign noting whether they would seat you or you seat yourself. Service was super quick - menus and water within the first minute of sitting down and food within 10 minutes. We ordered the Vietnamese Grilled Pork Sausage Spring Rolls, Crab Soup with Thick Noodle, Fried Egg Banh Mi. According to my partner, the Bahn Mi was solid. I really enjoyed the spring rolls and the crab soup was delicious, filled with meat, and seemed never ending even though I was starving. All in all it was a great late lunch for us and I would look forward to coming back and trying other items.

    First time here. It's part of the Saigon Asian grocery store. It's seat yourself with table service. Prices are appropriate with portion size. Friendly service, clean and small. There's about 10 tables I think for service. They have a decent menu offer. Food is tasty and flavorful.

    Janet was our server she was nice served us with a smile, very helpful with the menu and very attentive to our needs. I ordered shrimp spring rolls and my girlfriend ordered the pork egg rolls. The shrimp rolls were great generous portion and they weren't stingy with the shrimp. We ordered pho, I had shrimp pho with chicken, and my other half got the beef pho. It was a great place to eat, quiet, great staff and best of all the Pho is great, the spring and egg rolls too.

    Great food!

    the customer service is great! I've been coming for a little over a year and the food is always delicious and they know my order already because of how often I come ! :) 10/10 , have recommended to many friends

    Yummmm! The fresh spring rolls were to die for. The best flavorful spicy pho and the orange chicken was tasty. Quick service and short wait times. I like that you can dine inside of this market and shop around afterwards. We can't wait to go back and try something else!

    Oxtail pho - not too tender, difficult to eat, otherwise great flavor.
    Sein G.

    Overall satisfying. Visited this spot for lunch with friends. Ordered some apps and pho! 1. Oxtail pho: all was good except for the oxtail part. Meat was not tender. Otherwise regular sized bowl had huuuuge portion. Great broth. 2. My sister who is vegan ordered vegetable pho but they do not have veggie broth. It would be nice if they had vegan broth options for vegetable pho and maybe with tofu added as a protein option like a lot of the other places. 3. Egg rolls : they were really good. But didn't expect them to be so big! :-) haha definitely recommend! 4. It's in this little strip mall and an Asian market, so it's nice to look around or go grocery shopping! 5. Place was overall clean and staff was friendly. Spacious seating. I would return again.

(Loved chatting with her, miss her.) Several times I saw whole HUGE beautifully roasted and decorated entire pigs sold out the door for private parties! EVERYONE came back then from EVERYWHERE! She was " famous" state wide for having the BEST DUCK. She had delicious big bowls of noodle duck soup too! Her roast duck and roast or barbecued pork were New York City Chinatown quality!!!!! ( I grew up & worked in NewYork for 40 years) Sadly she passed away and about 5 years ago I slowly saw the quality portion size cooking process and especially taste/flavor in the seasoning and marinating almost disappear. I wrote about this on my last trip from Florida where I moved 5 years ago. We permanently moved back to MN 1/26 and just returned to House of Wu today. OUTSTANDING.... Perfect Juicy.

Today the dining room was filled with 10 older and a few younger family and staff- - an EXCELLENT sign that her original recipes and wonderful care and quality of preparation HAVE RETURNED. Thank you. Thank you family.

Easier to call ahead. Back when it was dine in there was barely anyone there. Taste has been consistent for many years. they are not friendly but the food makes up for it. Prices definitely went up but it's still the best deal around. We still order for our holiday parties. Lately we've just been ordering when we crave it. I've always loved how the restaurant actually looks like a house, makes me wonder if anyone is living upstairs.

    I recently ordered some takeout from this restaurant (pork egg rolls, moo goo gai pan, and sweet &…read moresour chicken). Overall, the food was great! I really liked the egg rolls -- you can tell they are made in house. They're chocked full of ingredients and are a good size. The moo goo gai pan had good amount of both chicken and vegetables. The sweet & sour chicken was tasty. There were large pieces of breaded white meat chicken already doused in sauce. I prefer my dish that way -- I don't like when the sauce is on the side. The dish also included vegetables. I ordered via their website and scheduled a pick up -- the order was ready on time. I would recommend if you're looking for some decent Chinese food in the Burnsville area.

    Quite the surprise. Had it not been for the great reviews I would've never guessed that this place…read morewould be as good as it was. I've driven by this location multiple times and thought it was an abandoned building. So when I read about it online in my hunt for a true Cantonese style eggroll I was shocked to find out that this was the place when I pulled up. When I try to enter I discovered that they are currently only doing takeout only in the after order ahead. The interior looks like it has been re-decorated in over 25 years ago and they still have a cigarette machine. So I don't say these things as judgments but they were concerns but in-spite of it I ordered anyways. When I got home With my reservations about my order I discovered that I had in fact found a new hidden gem. I had the sweet-and-sour pork with Kenny's deli rolls and they were excellent. The food reminded me of the Cantonese restaurants that I used to eat at back home in the Chicago area.

I ordered online which was a little confusing because for over an hour it kept only saying that my order was being prepared so I ended up just going over there eventually and it seems my order was already ready. It seemed to be all correct but I ended up being a bit disappointed - my sesame chicken ended up just being some fried chicken pieces with a side of sweet and sour sauce with sesame seeds sprinkled on top which is not typically my idea of sesame chicken. On the plus side though the cream cheese Rangoons were yummy and there was a bonus egg roll in my order which was an unexpected surprise. Overall my experience was ok - I will probably try some other takeout places before trying this place again
