“ Popular among the locals, this place serves really really good com tam (broken rice). I was recommended this place by my Vietnamese friend. This place was still super busy on a Wednesday later lunch (around 1pm), where I still needed to wait 15 minutes for a table. Just note that the restaurant is mostly 4-top tables, so if you are a solo diner, you may be paired up with someone to share a table, which is not as awkward as you think as they will set it up so that it is two 2-tops separated by just the napkins and utensils. As long as both parties consent, this will drastically reduce wait times, which was what I did. I got the #41 combo which is super large portions. You could have 1.5 nice meals from just that, but because I was extremely hungry, I got super full from eating the entire plate. The combo also comes with soup and fish sauce. As is the case for most com tam plates, it comes with shredded pork skin, egg cake, and vegetables, on top of BBQ pork, grilled shrimp on sugarcane, fried shrimp cake. The BBQ pork is very flavorful, though kind of slightly charred which is easy to remove those parts. The grilled shrimp is very good - it is like a shrimp paste, and similarly goes for the fried shrimp cake which is a little bit heavy. The broken rice is fairly flavorful. The egg cake and shredded pork skin adds depth and texture to the dish. Service is fast and fairly hands-off, which is very okay for a casual lunch. You pay up front, noting your table number, or in my case because of a shared table, the table number and specifically what you ordered, so they ring you up the correct amount. Overall, this is one of the better com tam restaurants in the Garden Grove / OC area! ”
“ Whenever I visit OC, l would order to go and it only takes them 10-15 mins. (order in advance). l don't think I'll be eating at the restaurant anymore (ONLY TO GO) because l just realised they automatically charge 15% gratuity of 5 or even when your child doesn't eat. l can't justify that cuz Viet/Chinese restaurant don't have good service, they take your order and bring the food that's all !! l usually don't write about service at any asian restaurants unless it's fine dining asian restaurants, but automatic gratuity with shitty service gets me. The restaurant is small and typical ugly furnishings, but good Com Tam. ”
