    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.

    Visited this restaurant recently and had a decent experience overall. The food was okay, nothing particularly outstanding. The service was decent. One thing I appreciated was how clean the restaurant was. Overall, it's a solid spot if you're looking for a casual meal.

    Food is good but their tipping gratuity is greedy. Automatic 18% for just six people? I don't know, I was a little flabbergasted.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Food is great! Price is good! Service is good! Place is clean and looks modern Vietnamese themed. Definitely try their pho or bun cha.

    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.

    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.

    Got the bun cha ha noi and it was so good. The sauce, meat, noodles, and vegetables paired perfectly and the meal felt refreshing and not too heavy. The meat was not too tough and the aromatics of the dish was good. Portion was great and price was affordable.

    This was 3Rd times stopped by here. Small business, service and the food okey in here. Parking a little hard to find because may small business in this location. If you craving the Food Hanoi' style ,stop by to try .

The broth was super tasty. The oxtail cooked well. The noodles were in my opinion too soft. That's fine, my granddaughter likes him a little soft. The service was service, not bad or good. It was a small place, felt a little chaotic. Would I go back, if I was in the area probably.

Portions seem a bit smaller than the San Gabriel and Rosemead location but it gets the job done and I am pretty full after the meal. They have so many other options on the menu like chow fun, hainan chicken, and a ton of other noodle soup dishes. The last two times I came here was on a weekday during lunch so there was plenty of parking. However, I'm sure it gets packed on the weekend since it is located right next to the Asian Garden Mall. All tax is included in the price so there's no additional sales tax line item. Also! They charge 50 cents for water.. other locations do not. I was surprised but oh well.

Service chill, can pay at register in the front, like typical viet restaraunt where they kinda leave you to it. The Grandpa's noodles was good (a dryer noodle), great portion, meat was tender, the radish cube looking things was crispy bits of pork skin. The menu is unique here and mostly in vietnamese. I think I had wished for some sauce to go with the noodles (but I understand its mostly with the soup on the side), good tightness of the meatballs :D... They have the classic condiments on the side, the pickled garlic isn't very crunchy and kind of on the sweet side, the pickled chili does have that slight acidic kick that works well. I modified my noodle to egg for a dollar. The soup was good, on the more umami soy/beef side than clear. The wontons were abundant too, instead of a chili oil the sauce is more like a tangy sweet chili vinegrette thing. My accompaniment got a garlic noodle soup (fried garlic oil) that was rich and also in a huge bowl. For the price and portion its a hidden gem for someone who needs to feed a family. Not like gourmet, but good enough! Omg, also I missed the corn milk :((

Anyway, I have a crown cap so I wasn't super alarmed, but still a bit shook. I still finished my food but I politely tried to let one of the cashiers know. I showed him & everything & he was apologetic & asked what they could do to fix the situation. So I asked for a refund. And the other cashier said in Vietnamese something about me, like "Con nhỏ này" & I thought maybe he's talking about something else-but then when he gave me the receipt of my refund, he said "and I don't want you to be a customer here anymore." I was very appalled and I stood there wondering if he really just said that to me after I had an experience. I asked him why he didn't want me to be a customer anymore. And he turns to a customer to ring them out, ignoring me. So I waited til he was done with that transaction & repeated my question. He flat out said "because you're annoying." WOW. That's just so rude. And unfortunate bc I thought the food was really good & wanted to come back for the clam & the sweet corn milk. So I definitely wouldn't want to be a customer anyways with that kind of attitude towards a customer. Btw they give you plastic utensils here even for dining in which is a con.
