I love this place! I’ve eaten here since the late 80s. It’s sad to see them struggle after Covid, but they’re hanging on. Please eat here! Support local! The food is amazing in spite of the building being run down. Their wine selection Bo’s INSANE!

Every time we go, the food is on point and the service is exceptional. It is a family run business with everything made in house, none of the prepackaged sauces, etc. Specials are always incredible and he always has something new to try. The wine. When you walk in, look around the second room. Walls and walls of wine to choose from. Will never stop going to Van's, they have become like family over the years.

Been coming here since before they moved to this location almost 28 years ago. Haven't looked at a menu in almost all those years. Hien can cook anything you want and he will if if he has it, all you have to do is ask. Wine variety and prices combined make it the most affordable and best selection in the city. They were closed for much of the pandemic except for reservations for dinner in the last several months. He is talking about opening for lunch again sometime soon, provided he can find some help in the kitchen that is dependable. Currently he does all the cooking himself.

Great food, great service, and great company. Mongolian beef was awesome! Chicken lomein couldn't be beat, and the fried dumplings were phenomenal! Not only that, but the owner/waitress has a great sense of humor as well as wisdom regarding menu choices! Wish it weren't 300 miles, I want more!

Pleasantly surprised! I had their Pho and found that it was unlike any other in the city. The use of basil and something about the bone in recipie was different in a really great way. Try it out, you will be happy you did!

Husband and I had lunch here today. Some great things, and a few areas for improvement. We came in to a pleasant space with several 4-tops. The granite tops on the tables are nice, but our table had some sticky spots. More attention to cleaning would be good. Iced tea was good. My egg drop soup was GREAT with lots of chicken, corn kernels and eggy flavor. Husband's pho (rice noodle soup) had a deeply flavored broth, and it was loaded with sliced beef. He was also served bean sprouts and fresh cilantro to go with. No fresh basil or lime. He really liked that soup!! My sesame chicken was very flavorful, but the meat was a bit stringy and over cooked. The egg rollers good, and the fried rice was WONDERFUL! Lots of ginger and garlic in it, which was unexpected, but delicious. Good service, nice folks. All in all, a good experience.

I've driven by it for years without trying it. Very good & slightly spicy hot & sour soup. Great garlic sauce on the Broccoli Garlic Sauce, which was really a good mix of vegetables. Good portions. Brought me fried rice instead of the requested steamed. Good though. Waiter had trouble taking the order the first time. Wine selection. A bit pricey at $9 for a vegetarian plate lunch. I'll go back.
