Had the famous catfish here. Each piece was succulent and tasty. It’s fun making spring rolls. Note that although the menu says it feeds 2, it can definitely feed 3 or possibly 4 people. Pro tip: go ham on the sauce and lettuce. It makes the experience even better!
What a fun meal! There aren't a lot of Vietnamese restaurants in the bay area that does turmeric fish (cha ca la vong) $33 like Thien Long. It smells great if you let it sit for a bit and let the little fire under the metal plate sizzle the dill and onions table side. You can wrap your own spring ro
Overall: 4.5/5 (dine in) We came here for Mother's Day dinner around 6 PM and it was crowded. We had to wait about 20 minutes before we were seated. The service is a bit slower, & the workers had a bit of an attitude. Pho Ap Chao Bo Don - Crispy Chow Fun With Stir Fried Beef & Vegetables ($16.50):
Cash only. And you gotta work for your good here. They give you the ingredients but you gotta roll that baby up yourself. Very traditional with the fermented shrimp/ fish sauce. But the fried fish and dill combo inside fresh lettuce and rice paper is quite a treat
CASH ONLY. Wonderful Vietnamese restaurant, the flavors of the grilled meat were amazing. Portions were huge and price was pretty reasonable. The restaurant was packed but no wait. Service was a bit lacking, nobody came to refill my water but that's ok, the food was just awesome and I will absolutel
Ordered the #34B, the same thing everyone orders from this place. The fish on a searing hot plate. Comes with grilled vegetables cooking on it, rice wraps, vermicelli noodles, lettuce, mint, dill, etc. $30 and is supposed to feed two people. That said, two people who eat a decent amount are likel
This review is mainly for the grilled fish "cha ca la vong" because that’s what I come here for! I go here every chance I get. This is one of my favorite dishes and hard to find a place that makes it good. It’s more of an interactive meal if you choose the rice paper option. You make your own rice p
I've eaten here twice now and both times everything was fresh and delicious. The first time we came some good friends took us here, because it was their favorite Vietnamese restaurant with their favorite dish which was an incredible grilled fish dish where you make your own rolls. The Boba tea is ni
This place is all vegetarian. Really loved the creativity of the food and the wide selection they had to offer. Tried the shaken beef rice plate, broken rice plate, and the pork spring rolls. Everything tasted good and the food was fresh. Table service is a bit lacking but overall it was a positive
Sure service may not be the best. But their cam ca la vong is! Best turmeric dill Vietnamese fried fish in Bay Area.
We only come this restaurant when we’d like to eat Cha Ca La Vong. It is a large portion, my friend and I couldn’t finish them all. I love how they service with a lot of veggies and different kinds of dipping sauces. Service is good and price is reasonable.
Had an early lunch on Sunday 06/05/2022, around 11:30 am. Seems much slower than in the past. Cash only establishment. Had the usual turmeric & dill grilled fish set. Guess the restaurant is trying to contain cost/cut corner where the waitress asked if we wanted rice paper which will be extra fee.
My favorite place for fish at a Vietnamese restaurant. The fish is the fillet type without bones. You eat it with rolls. It takes some effort if you are not used to rolling. My next favorite dish is the seafood crispy noodles. It's so crispy it flies off the plate. Just don't drop the shrimp. Tasty!
Our favorite noodle soup place, see lots of people ordering dishes that come on a metal plate that has a burner underneath. We jokingly call it the flaming fish dish. It's pretty good, but I opt to put out the flame because I don't like the smell. Pro tip...it's an alcohol based fuel, easy to snuff
I came to this place a few years ago and it stayed on my mind. Service and employees were nice and service was fast and great. Prices are reasonable and they have a variety of dishes and hot pots. This place has not disappointed at all and definitely I will be back for great Vietnamese food.
Everyone gets the fish slices here. The seafood crispy noodles is one of a kind too. Very tasty and special. Different from other Asian food I tried.
One of the best pho places around! The beef noodle soups are the ones to have! Social distancing is pretty great here with tables blocked every other table!
Quite authentic! Dining here transport me back to Asia! The atmosphere! Foods good too! Cash only. There's an ATM in there tho.
Love the Cha Ca La Vong here! Must order if you come in since the cooked fish is amazing. Says it serves too but easily could serve 3-4 people depending how hungry you are.
