    VN Dish is its name, pho & banh mi are its game. I feel sorry for shops in this strip mall at the corner of McKinley & Magnolia because it is nearly impossible to come here during the McKinley bridge construction/detour. The impact is obvious as we were the only party at this restaurant for lunch today. I was intrigued by bun bo hue, a dish from the central region of Vietnam that I don't see very often. The broth is tasty but it does not look like the picture on the menu. Specifically, the pork hock was missing. Oh well. Service here was decent. But it is a sizeable restaurant. I can't help but wonder whether that one guy at the counter can keep up when it is busy. I don't know how long the McKinley project will take. I sure hope they can survive the lean time and prosper again.

    This doesn't taste like the egg rolls in the Vermicelli Salad at all

    My friend was craving for Pho. We were going to meet around Costco and I picked this resto from my Google search coz it's got pretty good reviews. After eating here, idk how... maybe they changed the chef? smh First disappointment was it was a little hard to find. Second was I kinda didn't expect the place to be like that. I mean it's clean but it really needs an upgrade big time. It's obvious that the owners didn't care about the ambiance. I love the old chandeliers tho... but it def. didn't match the furniture. I was a little embarrassed that I picked this place but I thought, maybe the food is good. We ordered egg rolls, my friend ordered Pho ( #21 ) and I ordered the vermicelli salad ( #28) with egg rolls and pork... then I was debating about the drink and the guy recommended Vietnamese Coffee with Boba. I love Vietnamese coffee in general, esp. the one at Lee's Sandwiches. This one has a very strong bitter taste and it tasted like they added some spice. I didn't enjoy it at all. I just took a little sip and I was done. I love vermicelli salad in general, however, the one here had a very strong spice that I've never tasted in a vermicelli salad before. It reminded me of Star Anise. It was overpowering the taste and the fish sauce that one mixes tasted diluted. I usually finish my bowl but I couldn't this time. I was disappointed with the service. After the guy gave us our order, he never came back to check if everything was ok, if we wanted a refill of our drinks, or if we wanted to order anything else. I won't recommend and I'm not going back.

    Avocado smoothie.  Try it before you judge

    First time visiting this place and trying their food. We couldn't find this place right away bec of the new bridge and they're kinda tucked inside the plaza. But we're glad we found this gem. Their Pho is absolutely delicious. The soup itself is very tasty! The presentation of the food is nice and clean. The owner is the place is the one who welcome us and served us. He's very nice and friendly. The place is clean. We will definitely come back. I recommend this place.

    Egg rolls

    A MUST!! I have had VN Dish over 15 times and it is ALWAYS consistent. We get the #10 Flank Steak, #21 Bon Bo Hue, and the egg rolls every time. The food is always hot and tasty and our order is always packed neatly as well. The pho has lots of meat and the broth is steaming hot, the egg rolls are so crispy and delicious. Do yourself a favor and get an order of the egg rolls!!!! I recently have tried their grilled chicken Bahn Mi, and it was amazing! The grill taste on the chicken was perfect and the veggies are fresh and crisp with a nice crunch on the baguette. They are a family owned business and I always see the owners working hard. They are so friendly and welcoming and are so deserving of your service. Now with the annoying construction of the bridge complete, it is easy to enter that plaza. Give them a taste!

    This place was amazing. The spring rolls were delicious!! THAT PEANUT SAUCE. I got the flank pho and it was delicious. The broth was the perfect flavor broth. I always get hot tea when I go places and this hot tea was amazing. 9/10 definitely recommend

    Very homey restaurant. Will have to come back during the day, very quiet and maybe got the remnants of broth during our visit. Pho and bun bo hue were okay.

    Mood- lunch I did as most and quickly researched restaurants that were in the area. It was a typical lunch hour, so my first thought was goodness they are going to be packed. However I was lucky and that was not the case. Upon entering was quickly greeted and ushered to sit wherever I chose. Menus were given and drink order was taken. Opted for the Thai Tea, Egg Rolls, garlic Noodle with filet Mignon, Wonton & Char Sui Soup. The highlight was the wontons. It was very plentiful and on point. Interior is a great size. There are several seating arrangements. Music was playing in the background. One thing that stood out to me. There are so many different options of things to order and specials everywhere. Signs were everywhere. Would recommend - pricing was reasonable. The customer service was very friendly and hospitable. My table was checked on continually. Location is Corona CA - McKinley/Magnolia- ample parking.

    2. Grilled Pork Sandwich

    I am very impressed with the food and fast delivery. Everything was still hot when it arrived and the restaurant is a good 13-15 minutes from where I live. First of all, the way they packed the food was efficient. They really made sure nothing was smashed or spilled. Secondly, I've never eaten at the restaurant so I can't compare, but I feel they gave me everything I needed. Soy sauce packets, chili packets, utensils, napkins, and the veggie toppings for my shrimp and wonton soup! (Which was HOT upon arrival.) The soup broth was very flavorful and delicious and really hit the spot. We also ordered the combination fried rice (chicken, shrimp, & pork). All the meats were well cooked, tender & delicious. I'm very picky with meat and I can say there was not a questionable, chewy, gross bit whatsoever! That's impressive! Shrimp spring rolls and sauce were delicious as well as the grilled pork sandwich. All in all, 10/10 for me. The only thing I'd say needs improvement and it may not even be the restaurant's fault, I never received an order confirmation. Not a single notification. I was beginning to wonder if my order had even gone through. The app showed an estimated time of arrival but that was it. Luckily, my husband went out to get the mail and saw the food sitting on the table on our porch. Not sure how long it had been sitting there but it arrived way sooner than the estimated time of arrival. I imagine it wasn't sitting there long because like I mentioned previously, everything was still hot! So make sure you are on the lookout for your delivery!

    This is a great restaurant! The food is fresh and filling. They will make orders per your request. I have ordered phở with rich broth and without noodles. The grilled pork and chicken salad is AMAZING. The iced Vietnamese coffee is delicious! I will come to this great neighborhood location. Good food, welcoming, and warm service!

I'm scared and intrigued. I'm happy to report back I will admit I jumped to conclusions. The vermicelli was delicious and we ordered both grilled pork and beef; IMO beef was tastier. The portions were generous and the veggies were crisp and fresh! The fries were crispy and the beef was very tender. This would be a great dish to share because of the mountain of fries! The seafood by the pound sparked my interest because I'm a fan of Boiling Crab. I got the cajun house special sauce medium. You can also pick garlic butter or lemon pepper for your sauce option. It came out super saucy and thick..good but not comparable to BC. This had more of an Asian stir fry sauce feel. The staff were very attentive and came frequently enough to check on the table for water, etc. I appreciated the gloves for my shrimp since it was so saucy. The restaurant was half full, mild white noise...you could still hear each other. Solid 4 stars.

However, I recently read their reviews and laughed that they give straight peanut butter as a dipping sauce for their spring rolls. That is a big no-no. Anywho, I was going to do takeout and drive home to eat because I had my dogs with me, but after I ordered I saw there was a table outside so I decided to stay. I ordered their salmon special with garlic noodles, spring rolls, and a vietnamese coffee. Total was $33 and I was able to split the portions for lunch and dinner. When I entered I did not speak vietnamese and neither was the employee in the front aware I was viet. After I paid and didn't leave a tip, she said something in vietnamese about either giving me a smaller portion because I didn't leave a tip or just complaining about not receiving a tip. Once I got my food and said thank you in vietnamese, the employee in the front got real quiet. Lmao I sat outside with the fur babies and enjoyed my salmon. It was flavorful but noodles were kind of dry. The spring rolls came in 2. They add avocado, tofu, and jicima in addition to other ingredients. This isn't your traditional spring roll. I can also confirm that dipping sauce is straight peanut butter with not even enough water mixed in to make the texture smooth. Its like getting a cup of peanut butter that is watery on the top and dry and chunky from the middle down. A sauce like this will not be acceptable in the vietnamese community down in Bolsa. Haha! The coffee was also only okay, didn't finish it. I dont think I would drive out of my way to eat here.

Secondly, it tasted really good. I ordered the vegetarian rice noodles. My only regret is that I didn't tell them I wanted the big flat noodles, so they defaulted to the skinny spaghetti-like ones. Now I know that even if they don't ask, tell them what I'd prefer anyway. Lastly, the portions are big enough to bring leftovers home which is a big deal for me since eating out can be expensive. If I'm paying that much, being able to get a second meal out of it is much appreciated. Parking wasn't an issue. I immediately found one right in front of the restaurant. As for the restaurant itself, it's modern and clean. Beware that if you end up sitting facing the windows like I did, I was blinded by the sun shining off a car window, so I had to scoot all the way inside the booth. It's because the door is made of glass and unlike the other windows it doesn't have signs to block glare. When I was about to leave, I told them there was no more toilet paper in the restroom and they went out of their way to stop what they were doing to get more for me. Apparently, the cabinet inside the restroom was empty, so one of the employees had to call another employee for help and they found more in another cabinet outside the restroom. I quite enjoyed my experience here and just writing this I'm already craving more of the food I had ordered.

Though the servers are friendly, they just seat, you, take your order and deliver your food. That's it. they don't come back to check on you or clear away dirty plates. I saw this with the tables around us. So we only tipped 10% as they didn't care to "serve" us. Our pho came quickly but we had to wait awhile for the basil/sprouts/jalapenos and lime, which were a skimpy. We waited so long we got up to ask if we were going to get any and they said yes, it's on it's way. All pho restaurants bring that plate out immediately after ordering. A heaping plate. Would have been nice if they told us this platter was on it's way. We were partially through our bowl when it arrived. I ordered my usual, Pho Tai. Most pho places serve the thinly sliced beef rare, over the hot broth and noodles. I would swish it in the broth and it's cooked. This place broth the beef fully cooked, not thinly (not shaved) sliced and the meat was of poor quality. Very tough. The broth was good but not much flavor. No check was presented, so we assumed we have to go up front to pay. That's when the server got up from a booth where she was relaxing to check us out. Again, hence the 10% tip.
