Long time customer here! They have a brand new dish: Bún Chả Cá Thì Là. The fish and the fish cakes are super tasty, and the amount of thì là (dill) they use makes it the perfect combo. It really nails that traditional Northern-style flavor profile. Pro tip: make sure to mix in some sa tế, as it completely amplifies the broth and takes it to the next level! Also, I'm so hyped that the Cháo Sườn Quẩy is FINALLY back on the menu! It came out piping hot and is just as comforting as I remember. Honestly, this bowl right here is what keeps me coming back and craving more. Solid spot, totally hits the spot if you want some legit, comforting Northern food. read more

SEN has been on my list of Vietnamese spots to try for a while, given all the glowing reviews. Unfortunately, the food was just okay. Food Bánh Mì Pate Que (2) - $5.99 Served as two pieces, this Hải Phòng-style bánh mì came with pate, shredded pork, and a house chili sauce. The bread was nicely toasted and served warm, making it easy to share. Bánh Ướt Đặc Biệt - $14.50 Steamed rice sheets topped with pork patties, fried tofu, and fresh vegetables, served with a house fish sauce. The sauce leaned light and slightly sweet, which may appeal to some but felt a bit mild overall. Bún Chả Hà Nội - $16.50 Rice vermicelli served with grilled pork, pork patties, fresh herbs, and house fish sauce. Similar to the other dish, the sauce was on the lighter side in terms of flavor. The protein portions also felt a bit small for the price. Service My party and I were greeted and seated promptly upon our arrival. A server brought menus and returned shortly after to take our order. However, they did not check-in throughout the dining experience. We arrived about 30 minutes before closing and the food came out quickly. Payment is processed at the register near the back by the kitchen. Ambiance The restaurant is dimly lit with plenty of seating for dine-in. Location It is located in a strip plaza with a shared parking alongside other businesses. read more

came here on a Monday - there was plenty of seating inside. The aesthetic is very nice and modern with vietnamese murals inside. Although there wasn't many people inside the restaurant, we felt that we had to keep trying to flag them down because they weren't being attentive just talking to each other or on their phones. They have plenty of vegetarian options and specialize in dishes with fermented shrimp sauce (mam tom/mam nem). Overall the food was just okay, lacked flavor. read more

I came to try their bun ca (vermicelli with fish), which was not as I expected. This is a northern Vietnamese style restaurant, so their bun ca is very different than the southern version that I am used to. It came with some fried fish and fried fish paste, and served with fresh herbs. It was tasty but did not hit the spot as I was craving the southern style bun ca. Service was fast and efficient. Overall, decent restaurant for northern Vietnamese dishes. read more

This place always has long lines so o figured it was about time to stop by and check them out. It is a small restaurant kept very clean. The decor is very pretty and inviting. They have a tv on the wall which was playing the Olympics when we went. The service is courteous and relatively quick given how busy they are. The food was pretty good. My husband has the special noodle and was happy. I had the bun cha Ha Noi at $16.99. Love how it was displayed and I could make my own wee bowl. The flavor was this okay. I think I expected more of a traditional fish sauce the sauce reminds me more of a shrimp sauce tho. read more

Came here for lunch on the early side to avoid crowds and got a table right away. The menu is not overwhelming, it offers a variety of noodles such as pho, vermicelli, sticky rice...we had the Hue Tron Sen / dry which is very tasty however they use rice noodles (the one that's used for pho) instead of the clear hu tieu noodles. Mien tom ga was good on a whole but broth was bland. The restaurant is clean & service is good. Overall we enjoyed our visit. read more

Pretty good given the options nowadays (RIP Hanoi Ave). The bun cha had a lot of veggies, good amount of noodles and the pork in fish sauce broth. I think the broth was a bit sweeter than I like and not as smoky but still pretty good. Service was very quick like any viet restaurant. Ambiance was nice, typical restaurant. read more

SEN Vietnamese Cuisine - buncha - Vietnamese Near Me - Westminster, California

I was craving bun cha and saw the good reviews for Sen. unfortunately it did not satisfy my craving. I don't think the meats are grilled to order. The meats did not have any char marks or taste and the fat of the pork had no crunch at all. The Banh mi would have been better if the baguette had more crunch. The noodle dish was bland. The best item was the cha gio and that was just ok. I had to ask the server for chilis 3 times after all the food already came. He only brought 3 small ones. read more

I had a lot of high hopes for this place, especially as my older son drove down from DTLA with his friends to come to a group dinner that's not Hanoi Corner. When the opportunity finally presented itself, my friend and I came early on a Sunday evening before the wait ensues. The service was brisk and efficient. The menu was alittle underwhelming, but that's fine if they specialize in certain dishes. I got the mien trốn sen (wet) soup and the broth was alittle flat that evening. I didn't have that comfort food reaction when the glass noodles filled with gummy chicken skin and shrimp hit my taste buds. I was so hopeful! My friend got the vegan vermicelli and said the ratio of greens/veggies to noodles was off. Decent amount of tofu. Only big plus is that we didn't have to wait on top of the taste disappointment. read more

The place was very small and I wasn't sure what to expect. We got the banh mi appetizer that they advertise everywhere and I thought it was just alright. 7/10- it was warm and yummy but nothing i would go out of my way to get. We also got their cha nem as an appetizer and it was pretty good, again nothing I would go out of my way for but it was enjoyable. Then we got the xoi pate lap suong which I would probably skip. The lap suong was too sweet. Lastly we got the Banh Da Tron sen and it was so gooood!! There was a chili oil at the table that we added and it elevated it even more! I would travel for this dish! I've never had it anywhere else so I don't have anything to compare but the texture was chewy and the flavors were amazing! I highly recommend! read more

Great spot for northern Vietnam dishes, I like their bun cha and mi kho. Very tasty and fulfilling.

Found this spot mmm take a wild guess how? Yelp :p The food is very tasty and the portions are huge, the service is very classy as the waiter spoke in Vietnamese so well mannered and proper and the ambiance is kind of loud as families eat here like mothers talking to their kids and due to random businesses that are in the area as well. I couldn't choose which to eat but ate the banh uot dac biet and the mien tron sen kho. It was my first time trying out mien noodles in a dish like this and it ate! Soo good ! I will come again but sit closer to the registers because there's a quang cafe that reeks of cigarette smoke two doors down. read more

Easy, free parking in a shared plaza with Kei Coffee House. This is a casual, sit-down restaurant. I ordered the salted lemon soda, the sticky rice with sausage and pâté, and the bun cha Ha Noi. The salted lemon soda was incredible--by far my favorite version of this drink so far. It was perfect: not too sweet, not too salty, but with a great kick. I'd definitely order it again. The sticky rice was good, but nothing special in my opinion. I enjoyed the rice itself and the sausage was typical, but once the pâté cooled down, the texture became less satisfying and felt a bit dry. As for the bun cha Ha Noi, the flavors were great, but the portion was tiny. Getting only two small patties and four pieces of pork belly felt a bit outrageous for the price. All in all, the food is good and I'd still recommend it! read more

One dish I always come back for is the Miến khô trộn. Really tasty and delicious. The portion is generous for me. This place is a twist of traditional dishes with modern and upgraded flavors. Their Pho Bac dac biet was also tasty, loved it when they used fresh noodles (bigger rice noodles). The one we did not enjoy was Banh Da Hai Phong. Modern ambience, not too cramped, loved the Saigon painting on the wall read more

This place was recommended and wow so glad I went today!! Probably hands down the best egg rolls ever had in a bun!! It was cooked perfectly and the flavor was incredible. The fish sauce it came with was also very unique. Not the usual ones you get at other places. Unfortunately I don't remember the name of the other item we ordered. But it was also very good. The taste is more subtle and not overwhelming. Small menu but good choices. read more

4/19/25 Spring break 2025 We arrived half past the hour after opening. There is a waitlist checkin kiosk but it wasn't operational upon arrival. We had a short 5 minute wait and seated fairly quickly however we had to flag them down to order after waiting an additional 7 minutes. We started our orders with appetizers and ordered in order the (1) Cha Nem and (2) Banh Mi Pate Que (comes with 2) followed by our (2) Pho Bac Dac Biet and (1) Banh Da Cua Hai Phong noodle orders. Asked for soybean milk, coconut blended coffee and 3 ice waters. First out was our 3 noodle bowls followed by the (2) paté baquette order. Our drinks shortly followed. We noticed a few tables being served the nem eggrolls but ours wasn't out yet. Half way through eating our noodles, we flagged and asked our server if the Cha Nem was coming. He said he would check and came back telling us it was coming and almost done. My boys love paté so we ordered another serving for them. When this additional order of paté baquettes came out before our cha nem, we decided to ask again where our order was with the older gentleman (owner). He went to check his tablet to see if we ordered it, saw that we did and went to the kitchen and I guess ordered it. This one dish came out after we were all done with our 3 app orders, 3 noodles and drinks. It was just shy of an hour that we received the very first dish we ordered. :O (1) Cha Nem - Northern style egg rolls filled with shrimp, pork, and crab (3 small eggrolls - served cut in half with lettuce and herbs) - crispy and warm and pretty good! Just disappointed in the severe wait and unapologetic service. (2+1) Banh Mi Pate Que - comes with 2 Banh mi, Hai Phong style paté and shredded pork in house special sauce - this is a slightly chunky paté vs the paste you usually get in traditional Vietnamese sandwiches. (1) Banh Da Cua Hai Phong - described as Authentic Hai Phong crab soup with flat red noodle, chả lá lốt, meat ball, and shrimp - pretty good, light clean crab flavored broth. (2) Pho Bac Dac Biet - Pho noodle, rare ribeye, brisket and flank - meat was very tender, sliced thin. Broth wasn't sweet like many others we've tried. While food was all pretty darn good, the service and acknowledgment of us as patrons was lacking big time. Hopefully we get treated better next time. read more

If you're looking for some good and comforting Vietnamese food, this is the spot! My friend and I came on a Wednesday night and were seated almost immediately - even though there was quite a lot of people there! We both ordered the bun cha Ha Noi, one of their more popular dishes and it was delicious. I love how it was presented in a deconstructed manner, because it allowed me to only add and mix in what I preferred. My friend, who is new to eating Vietnamese food appreciated how umami and perfectly seasoned the nước mam sauce was. It wasn't overly fishy, salty, spicy, etc. Definitely new go to spot on the list! read more

The food was great. We were seated fairly quick. A pretty good place overall. But nothing new I haven't had before.

Absolutely unexpected treasure of a spot! Driving home from the OC, we Yelped a lunch spot in Westminster and decided on SEN Vietnamese Cuisine and wow, did we luck out. This isn't your typical pho-and-banh-mi place. The menu's more focused, a little unfamiliar, but that's the magic. I ordered the Mien Tron Sen. I never heard of it before. It blew my mind!!! Think Filipino pancit's cooler Vietnamese cousin: soft, glassy noodles tossed with shrimp, shredded chicken, and BBQ pork, all tied together with crispy fried garlic. Pure heaven in your mouth. My wife and boy got the same dish in Bun Cha Ha Noi, which came with grilled pork and a juicy pork patty (yeah, a patty sounded weird, but trust) over vermicelli, dunked in this sweet-savory fish sauce magic. Unreal. And FYI, the leftovers heat up nicely. Place was packed with Vietnamese families, service was fast and friendly, and bonus: tons of parking in a chill strip mall. Already flagged it in our app. We're coming back. Oh, the Vietnamese ice coffee was strong, but deeeelicious. read more

The restaurant was clean and wait staffs were nice. We ordered Miến Trộn 8/10 miến was good and the broth tasted alright. I just don't care for the presentation. I don't like having hot food served in plastic vessels. The fried egg rolls were delicious 9/10. Crunchy but not hard. They were tasty. Bún Đậu mắm tôm 7/10 fried tofu were good, bún was on point. Chả cốm was good but the sause was too pungent which is a turn off. I think it needs more lemongrass and fresh pineapple. ( but that could be just be my personal preference.) all in all we will come back. read more

I came here for lunch on a Sunday, and although the restaurant was full, I was first in line and got seated in 5 minutes. Very efficient! I tried the Miến Trộn Sen (Khô), which was enjoyable and satisfying. The dry glass noodles were well-prepared, and the broth that comes on the side was better than I expected -- rich, flavorful, and well-seasoned. I wish the dish came with more veggies or a plate of fresh greens like lettuce, celery, or extra bean sprouts... a small addition like that could've taken the dish from good to excellent. I also had the Bún Chả Hà Nội, and I appreciated that they were able to substitute the vermicelli noodles with steamed rice paper (bánh ướt) -- a really neat and delicious twist. The grilled pork and dipping sauce were on point. Both were good and I would recommend both. Their portions are on the smaller side, which is great if you're aiming for a lighter meal or wanting dessert afterwards. read more

I've already been twice in a few weeks and I'm looking forward to coming back! I've been on the hunt for bun cha and this place might be the go-to in the area. It had huge portions and the pork and sauce and sides were reminiscent, if not, almost as good as you can get in Hanoi. The brisket pho was solid, but the dry noodles were incredibly tasty with the marinated pork, shrimp, garlic, bran sprouts, green onion, and the side of rich broth. We also had the coconut coffee, which was almost as good as having it the first time in Hanoi. For a diverse order, we were surprised to have gotten everything fairly quickly, and it was pretty family friendly. read more

SEN Vietnamese Cuisine is a quick and easy spot for Vietnamese noodles to go beyond pho. I really enjoy the mixed and stirred noodle dishes, ready for you to stir and enjoy. I tried the bánh đa trộn khô, and it hit home! The sauce at the bottom was portioned enough to coat the noodles without oversaucing them. The flavors were bold a wonderfully pungent mix that hit all the right notes. The simple, modern decor adds to the comfy experience for casual meals. Easy to get a seat too! read more

Just came back from a trip to the Asia and craving Vietnamese foods. Stopped by for a late lunch today. The restaurant is a bit hard to find since there's no banner nor sign with their name on the top and there was construction going on in front of the restaurant. There was no one in the restaurant other than myself at the time. The owner was eating lunch herself. I ordered the bun cha Ha Noi since I see so many good reviews for on Yelp. Told the server I would like all lean meat and no fat please, as I know the grilled pork for this dish can be fatty. He nodded his head and said okay. Well, when he brought the food out, it was a tiny bowl of meat and half of it were thin slices of pork full of fat! Told him for health reasons, I can't eat fatty meat, please let the kitchen know. He came in the kitchen and 2 minutes later came out and told me that's how it is and there's "very little" fat. I wish he would have told me that when I ordered, I would have ordered something else. So disappointing! It was 4:00 pm and I haven't had anything to eat all day, I went ahead and tried to eat what I can from that serving. The meat definitely is missing the flavor of the charcoal grill. Fish sauce was decent but that's about it. I've had it much better at other places. :( Was going to bring my family here but forget it, I will not return. Everything on the menu is overpriced compared to the other restaurants around there and the food wasn't even good, unfortunately. If you like pork belly or fatty meat, you might like it. read more

The portions were generous and super filling, and the flavors were on point, just like the versions you'd get in Vietnam.

After they took our orders, the food all came out pretty much all at the same time. I tried the dry egg noodle and soup on the side. The flat noodle were cooked nicely and was delicious. I also tried a bit of the pho tai as well. The broth is so soothing! And the appetizers, we tried both them though only one is pictured. The cha nem was filled, crunchy and so goood!

We came here on a Sunday for lunch and was worried we would have to wait long but, thankfully there was a table they were clearing up. Although this place is popular with the locals, they take orders and clean their tables fast. There was almost never an empty table and later on in our meal, a short line formed. It is very very noisy with all the chatter inside and tables are placed pretty close to one another. The dishes were mostly good, but drinks like the coffee and peach iced tea were just alright. I'm a novice when it comes to Viet food so it would've been helpful to have a picture menu. I ordered the Banh Da Cua Hai Phong and wasn't a fan of the "flat red noodle", but the soup and other ingredients were good. My husband and mom got the Hu Tieu and Mien Tron Sen which were like stir fried dry noodles with a side of soup and both liked those dishes. I tried them also and the flavor really slaps. I wish I ordered one of those dishes instead! You pay at the front at the counter. read more
