Every time my family and I come here, we always order Banh Canh and Banh Xeo. Because these two dishes are very delicious and attractive. It is worth trying.

I come here all the time, the Banh Xeo or Vietnamese savory crepes are so fresh and has a crunchy taste. The people here are so nice, if you like spicy just ask for chili on the side. Their noodles and Pho are a great option as well if you love pho

Came here to eat banh xeo and catch up with a friend and we ended up ordering two! The batter was thin and crispy and not too flour-y if you know what I mean. The portion of one is like a good decent size which can feed like two people comfortably with room left in their stomach for another dish. I also got nuoc mat (artichoke iced tea) which was so refreshing and tasty I still dream about it. We did come like 1.5 hours before closing, so we were the only people there. The owners were very nice and inviting. I also noticed that a lot of people would order pickup for their banh xeo which is a good indicator that it's good. Overall 9/10 experience with amazing and authentic vietnamese banh xeo :)

Such a welcome switch from the typical Pho restaurants! They don't even serve Pho or vermicelli bowls, the standard Vietnamese options. Instead, they have the WONDERFUL Banh Xeo, a coconut and rice flower crepe, filled with shrimp, pork and bean sprouts. The key is to wrap a piece in lettuce with some mint and chomp chomp your way through it! The Black Pepper Beef was delicious, stir fried with onion and jalapeños. The pork egg rolls were flavorful as well (also benefitting from the lettuce wrap.) We also ordered Hu Tieu, a clear-broth soup with rice noodles, green onion, toasted garlic and pork meatballs. So. Much. Yum. You've got to try this spot!

The best part of this restaurant is Banh Xeo and their waffle. Banh Xeo is great when you wrap them in the rice paper with leaves, and dip in to the fish sauce and chili sauce. It is amazing. Their waffles are amazing too. It is very crispy outside, and chewy inside. But when it gets cold, it becomes tasteless. We ordered some noodles with pork. They tasted like pho, but different. I much preferred the regular pho. I also tried their noodles with tomato and blood pudding and stuff last time, it wasn't my type either. Lastly, we got a passion fruit juice, it tasted like orange juice with passion fruit syrup, but still rich in flavor, so I liked it. The Vietnamese coffee was good too. It was real Vietnamese drip coffee, so it had little bit of coffee per order. We tried different dishes too, but Banh Xeo and waffles are the best! Try their drinks too, if you're interested.

I know this place is known for thier yellow crepe banh xeo(?) But I love thier green waffle here. Garland is hella far for me but whenever I am down here, I love coming here just for these waffles. These waffles are really different from the ones I have tried because it is super crispy. It tastes like a fortune cookie but the inside is chewy green rice cake with bits of coconut occasionally. Oh my good the best snack. Each waffle is 2 dollars each! I believe you need to pay in cash if you order less than 5 dollars. I could be wrong but have cash just in case! I tried their yellow crepe dish here and its pretty good too! So try that!!
