Huong Vy

“ Nice roomy restaurant. The food is good. We tried various dishes and like them all. Good service. We came with a group of 20 and they were very cordial and accommodating. ”

“ I'd heard great things about the egg rolls here, so I decided to try them for myself. I ordered 10, but the owner (a middle-aged man, whom I assumed was the owner) kindly gave me an extra one. When I asked for some fish sauce and offered to pay, he wouldn't let me, and he even provided a generous portion. The egg rolls were the best I've ever had! I highly recommend this restaurant. ”

“ We were in town, looking for a Vietnamese restaurant and stumbled on Huong Vy restaurant. Easy parking, the restaurant was spacious and very clean. The service was fast with friendly waiter. I read some reviews from Yelp & I've to agreed with the positive ones. Food was delicious. The Banh Uot Thit Nuong was good & enjoyed it. My partner in crime ordered Bun Thit Nuong and he liked it as well. Partner gave waiter a generous tip because we really enjoyed our lunch here. We will definitely come back again to try other dishes on the menu. ”

“ Bo Luc lac and rice with fish was excellent . Banh Khoi , crispy omelette with pork with peanut sauce was excellent . Service always friendly . ”

“ BANH HOI TOM THIT NUONG WAS DELICIOUS. Mi Quang was yummy, we love it. Come back here so often, we recommend for trying out. Staffs are friendly. Thanks for the good foods. ”

“ This restaurant is named after prominent landmarks in and around Hue, the ancient capital of Vietnam. So naturally it features typical Hue food: lots of small tapas-style plates (1-17 and 31 on the menu) and larger size specialties such as Bun Bo Hue, Mi Quang, Bun Hen, Com Hen. There are several similar restaurants in the area, Ngu Binh and Hue Oi just down the street come to mind. I came here for Banh Khoai specifically because I think it's the only restaurant in OC that has it on the menu. It's a little bit like Banh Xeo, i.e. a savory crispy crepe stuffed with vegetable, shrimp and pork served with lots of greens and herbs. Banh Khoai is smaller and way crispier so two of them is one portion and the dipping sauce is a complex concoction made with pork meat and liver, peanut, shrimp paste, hoisin sauce, prawn, onion, garlic, shallots...), not the simple nuoc cham made out of fish sauce. When done right the dipping sauce is so good I can slurp it down by itself. Pro tip: add a bunch of chopped chili to spice it up like people do in Hue. We came around noon on Thursday, no problem with parking, got seated right away. We ordered the #13 combo just to sample many things, Banh Khoai of course, and #1 Cha Oc. Everything was excellent. Beware when you bite into the periwinkle ham (cha oc) that there is a stalk of lemongrass inside. #13 was good, I especially enjoyed the bits of chicharrón. The Banh Khoai is very very good, better than any I had in Hue as we were there recently. The sauce was amazing, I could buy it alone and put it on everything. My wife ordered Bun Bo Hue to go. Their version is rather bland which is a sin for this dish, we prefer Ngu Binh's. The restaurant is spacious so tables are positioned nicely apart. They played traditional Vietnamese music when we were there (đàn tranh, like the Japanese koto). I am going to comment on some of the negative reviews. Someone mentioned it was hard to peel the shrimp in the four cake, well in Hue they eat the shrimp with the skin. The gal who complained about the brown bean sprouts, it gets brown pretty quick in a takeout bag shown in her photo, and she said the "food is good" yet one star? Complaints about slow service, maybe come for lunch on a weekday instead? One star customer service because the waiter did not smile? Come on, we come to inexpensive Viet restaurants in Westminster for the food, not the fake smile. We were in Vietnam for a month from Phu Quoc to Fan Si Pan, I don't remember a single smile from the wait staff. We just don't expect it, don't look for it, when it happens we are pleasantly surprised. Life is so much better that way. ”

“ Summary: great food, reasonable price, difficult parking during peak hours, but will definitely come back My husband had a craving for Bun Bo Hue, so we headed to this place to satisfy his request. Our order included Bun Bo Hue, Com Hen (rice with baby clams), and Banh Beo. I asked for the veggies in my Com Hen to be on the side, allowing me to enjoy it to the fullest, although the broth was a bit heavy. The Banh Beo was served with crunchy pork skin and finely minced shrimp on top, accompanied by a side of fish sauce to pour over. The Bun Bo Hue truly stood out, cooked to perfection. Parking was quite challenging on the weekend, as the lot was completely packed when we arrived at noon. ”

“ The Bun Bo is not bad. Good flavor. Clear crisp broth. Lacks the strong lemongrass smell And herb aroma. Once you add the veggie, it's a bit bland. Good portion for the price. The cha hue is good and chewy texture. The banh beo is ok. Very pretty presentation and nice abundant toppings. The dough could be a bit more chewy. Fish sauce is good. ”

“ Time for an updated review, because I just want to support this place for its consistent good BBH and service! This is not the typical trendy places, so you won't get many younger crowds here. Most of the patrons are older Vietnamese folks, the OGs BBH and Hue food frequent goers. My parents and family love this place and this is our usual place to go for BBH. Even during Covid, their togo BBH was just as good as dine-in. The place is so spacious and can hold large family gatherings. Their BBH, banh beo, cha oc, mi quang, banh uot thit nuong are all consistently good. This will continue to be our family's favorite restaurant to go to and we know almost everyone who works here. ”
