Authentic Vietnamese rice dishes. Enough said. They have every option of rice dish you might want to try including combos. Com tam means broken rice, a Vietnamese specialty. I recommend the pork chops with egg. Very filling and satisfying. Expect to wait on the weekends but that's true for any food place in this area. We got our food to go and it was still good by the time we got home.
Has all possibilities of food choices. Service is great too. Normally order to go and bring and one whole portion feed 2 people just fine. You can prob feed 3.
I've written about this place before so I'll keep it short :) Hands down my favorite com tam restaurant. Authentic. Fresh ingredients. Delicious. What more can you ask for? Something about this place always feels like home. I always get the thit nuong (grilled pork) and cha (egg cake). This dish never disappoints! If you haven't had com tam before start with this :)
First time trying this place and it was amazing. The portions are big and not to mention the flavors are amazing. I ordered a #8 and it did not disappoint. I went in with a big group of people and the restaurant was very spacious and accommodated us very well. Will definitely go back!
Com Tam Thuan Kieu is a staple in the Garden Grove/Westminster area. My family loves this spot and they're my go-to for com tam because the portions are huge and the flavors are always on point. I love com tam because there's a variety of meats you can eat. They give you plenty of nuoc mam and soup to pair with the com tam / broken rice. Service is decent! They mainly speak Vietnamese so it would be best to go with someone Viet or point at what you want. The restaurant is huge so there should be plenty of seating, I've never waited here. I would highly recommend checking them out.
Just happened to drive by the strip mall where this place resides. Only a few other patrons so there were plenty of tables available. Took a look at their extensive menu and decided on their 10 item plate. It was overkill for me as I couldn't finish it all. Items were decent and I definitely enjoyed the variety. Loved the soup, which helped break up my meat overload. Would consider coming back again.
This is a good place if you're craving com tam. I used to come here as a kid. The food is good and comes out quick. If you love com tam, then this is the place to get it! Lots of parking in the plaza!
Best broken rice I've ever had. I should be able to finish the whole plate myself but the portion was just about right for two people to share. Not enough rice for me but the 10 items on the plate made up for it. This set the bar for broken rice for me and all the broken rice on the west side are just scam and trash compared to this. The drinks were good but too much ice. The prices were reasonable and the service was fast, but we were also the only customers there during that time.
After eating shit on my bike (bicycle) today which landed me in the hospital with a brace and sling, I needed something to heal my soul at the very least. My wife and I said screw the diet today and she drove my battered ass to Com Tam Thuan Kieu. We shared their absolute unit of a combo, which was 10 items! It also came with two soups and a heaping plate of rice, along with plates to share. It had it all: egg roll, charbroiled pork, lap cheong/xuong, tofu wrapped shrimp cake, baked egg quiche, grilled shrimp, grilled fish (surprisingly good!), fried shrimp cake, julienned pork, and a grilled pork sausage. All of it was nothing short of delicious. Initially I was worried that it wouldn't be enough rice for the both of us since I practically inhale rice when you put it in front of me, but once the meal was nearly done, I realized that it was the perfect amount of food. Well, actually my wife couldn't really finish her share, so I ended up eating the rest like usual which is a pretty good problem to have. The older gentleman who was serving us was friendly and nice too. He and my wife shared a laugh because apparently he was trying to talk to me and I just stared at him blankly since I don't understand Vietnamese haha. I do know my foods in Viet though ;) But you know what's a 1 star meal that I've eaten twice in the last 2 weeks? The ground. 0/10 would not eat the asphalt or dirt again. But here? For $25 for 2 people in *this* economy? You bet your ass I'm coming back (even tho I've been to the other locations).
My husband came here by himself on a Saturday afternoon and dined in. He got the com tam 10 mon ($20.65) which he said was phenomenal. The portion size was also really big so he had food coma afterwards. We recently stopped by on a Friday afternoon and ordered banh hoi 10 mon ($30.44) to-go and drove 1 hour home before we got to eat it. The food was surprisingly still warm enough to eat but the egg roll was soggy. The banh hoi cost $10 more which was not worth it since it didn't taste super fresh or hand-made. My husband said the portion size was smaller too. They didn't give enough nuoc mam so we added our own. However, they did give a good amount of veggies though. The meat, fish, & shrimp were good but my favorite was the egg cake. The eggroll and Nem Nuong log were just okay. Lesson Learned: Only dine in at this restaurant.
