Sign in to reviewThey make the box smaller so you get less which is fine but if you buy fried pork roll they watch to see if you notice if look away she takes the one at bottom sitting against heat where it’s totally dried out. Understand food cost but also there are health rules regarding how long food can be left out. Rather than give customer burnt pork roll can use y burnt portions for their prepared foods . Instead just throw trash at customer. This place used to be good for many years , definitely find somewhere that appreciates business and not scam customers
This place is a small to go Vietnamese spot with banh cuon/uot (rice crepes filled with pork or shrimp/plain rice crepe), goi cuon (pork and shrimp spring rolls) Banh beo (water fern cakes - small rice cakes with dried shrimp topping), rice and noodle dishes (chicken, pork), Vietnamese fried egg rolls, and other dishes. There isn’t a lot on display and they put out a few containers of food on the counter to buy to go. Behind the counter is where you ask/order for the banh cuon, Banh uot, Banh Xeo and other hot foods. I believe the banh cuon/uot are the most popular foods to get here. I would stick with those items. I got egg rolls (Cha Gio) and thought they were ok. The filling was more veggie than meat. The egg rolls were 3 for $2 and I got 6. They do take credit card, but I think it needs to be over $10.
My dad and I always come here for a full quick meal. It's a small place, there are 4 tables sometimes they are sticky. If you are dining in, you can get a drink from the cooler as you wait for your meal. When you pay, they will count how many drinks and dishes you ordered. You have to leave the restaurant to go to the main mall to wash your hands. Banh Xeo (yellow crispy pancake) contains shelled shrimp. They don't remove the shell to prevent the shrimp from drying out during the cooking process. The meal comes with Roman lettuce, cilantro, and mint. Take some of the vegetables, rip the Banh Xeo and eat it like a taco.
It is new management. The new management can’t take orders correctly. Foods are not the same as the old management.
Kim Lan Food to Go 7/7/25: This is where I go for Vietnamese nêm nướng. The bánh xèo here is crunchy thin with a decent amount of pork and shrimp too. The down side is that this place is a to-go only food service. The bánh xèo can be reheated to crispness in an air fryer though. My mom would just buy the lettuce and herbs to eat with the bánh xèo at the market there.
