Best WLM Reviews
This place is popular; you can tell it from its concise menu, which has no more than five sheets. The menu is simple, specialized, and affordable, but what's even better is that the food is delicious. Due to the place's popularity, I suggest going on a weekday, arriving early, or not going there too hungry.
The staff makes a great effort to serve all customers promptly and attentively, even when there is a long queue. They don't pressure you to finish your food quickly or keep track of you with the check when they serve you your food.
The place could be improved by having more tables and space inside.
Got to visit Ong Ta Banh Cuon Bun Moc (banh cuon is freshly steamed rice rolls filled with grounded pork, onions, spices & chopped dried mushrooms) is located in the Vietnam Town Shopping Plaza.
Ordered to go #1 special Bánh Cuốn Đặc Biệt – which had delicate chew, juicy bits of pork and veggies giving a burst of flavor accompanied with fresh bean sprouts, mint, herbs and other sides, all meant to be dipped or drizzled in a prepared savory fish sauce (add on chili sauce and fried shallots for umami)
Taste: 4.8 / 5 stars
Portion size: generous - one to go portion was enough for two
Likely the best in San Jose as I’ve been living in the NorCal area for over 35 years now and hadn’t come across a banh cuon restaurant with not only generous portions but tasty combinations of various fried grounded pork patties and steamed pork patties (cha) & nem (cured pork patties) etc - four different types total plus a deep fried sweet potato shrimp cake to top it off.
Would I visit again? Absolutely ????
Recommend to family & friends: for sure ????
To go order total: under $18 USD
On a separate note, love to ski, ride & good eats? ???? SnowPals Dot Org since ‘99
Taken by my best friend and her Vietnamese boyfriend, this was my first Vietnamese dining experience with these kinds of foods because for Vietnamese food, I usually eat pho, banh mi, as well as snacks.
So, Bánh Cuôn Bún Mộc Ông Ta is located in Vietnam town. No wonder that we could see many local Vietnamese people here. There are indoor and outdoor areas.
They provide various appetizers, rice roll, vermicelli, and drinks as well. We tried their Special Rice Roll and Summer Roll. Both of them contains pork and fresh vegetables, along with the tasty sauces. Summer Roll is the steamed spring roll, so it's still common for me, whereas Special Rice Roll, this mixed dish is a new experience for me. It comes up in a big portion, so feel free to share it ????
Both is good as well.
This place is my top new spot for rice rolls which are their specialty. I ordered the special rice roll ( Bánh Cuốn Đặc Biệt)
The quality was excellent, and the serving size was large.
A friend recommended that we try this place out, and that's what we did. We were not hungry as we just ate, but since it was close by, we had to come. It is located in the Vietnam Town Plaza among many restaurants and drink places. I knew this place was legit when I saw the jug of nuoc mam at each table. We just decided to get the #1, Banh Cuon Dat Biet, which had a little bit of everything. The rice roll here is pretty good, and you can tell it's freshly made. It's definitely worth a try. I only wished we were really hungry when we came.
We ordered No.1 and No.20(Udon). Everything is so delicious. The best in Vietnamese Town.
First time having banh cuon here! Since then I’ve been back and brought new friends and they got hooked too! I love the shrimp banh cuon and the nem nuong rolls. Food comes out fast. Expect a short wait to be seated. The wait is well worth it!
The restaurant is small and short on staff. There’s only 1 cleaning staff and he’s a middle aged uncle, so if you come in and find the table dirty or not clear of previous customer’s plates, be patient standing next to the table. The uncle will eventually come.
First time come in, we didn’t know that sitting by the table waiting for orders to be taken means dine-in, and lining up before the cashier means take-out.
I saw a long line, so I went to line up and order. We chose a table and waited for 20 minutes only to have our orders in takeout plastic bag.
The food is good though. We ordered one Special Banh Cuon and one Banh canh thit. My husband likes the Banh cuon, but the fiah sauce is too spicy to me. On the other hand, I really like Banh canh.
Will come again, and this time we will wait patiently at the table for the waiter :)
