Eggrolls & More

This place is closed

this place is new and so my family and i popped in to check it out. it was very crowded for a tuesday afternoon. the wait was, therefore, longer than what i have come to expect from restaurants in that shopping center, but not too bad — 20 minutes?
the owner is vietnamese and while the small but basic-​comprehensive menu is vietnamese (bun thit nuong, com chien cha gio, etc.), i would call the food more of a fusion — it’s vietnamese food americanized.
to our surprise, and my parents are very picky traditional vietnamese folks, we all agreed it was tasty (though not traditional vietnamese tasting). i would eat here if i want vietnamese food but with a twist. if you are craving traditional vietnamese food, the dishes and tastes that are familiar and you’ve come to expect, go next door to Ha’s Kitchen.
i got com thit nuong ga cha gio + fried egg. (rice with grilled chicken, egg rolls and an extra egg). the rice they use is long grain and has a chewy texture. (almost like nep, if you’re vietnamese, but drier). it’s quite tasty.
i dont want to say it’s mind blowing good food or necessarily cheap at $ 6 for a lunch plate, but i would definitely go back.
the owner is sweet as a honey bee too. it’s definitely moms and pops shop with him manning the front and his wife making all the goods.
go, you’ll leave with a satisfied belly.
