Feedback
Ben Tre offers an array of Vietnamese dishes that evoke authentic flavors reminiscent of Vietnam. While standout items like the five-spice chicken and garlic noodles delight, inconsistencies mar the experience. Service issues, such as slow attention and payment hurdles, detract from the meal. Diners rave about the freshness of spring rolls and the quality of pho, although one dish left some unsatisfied due to overpowering sweetness. Despite mixed reviews, many patrons express a desire to return, hoping to explore more menu options. Overall, Ben Tre shows promise but may require more attention to service and dish consistency.
I've visited Ben Tre in Millbrae for lunch on two separate occasions with some coworkers, and both times were delightful. I typically opt for the BBQ pork vermicelli noodles with an egg roll, as I'm not much of a Pho fan. The servings are quite generous and the food is scrumptious. The service is impressively fast, allowing you to enjoy a meal and still make it back within your lunch hour. There's street parking and a lot available, though it can get a bit crowded during peak lunch hours. The restaurant is conveniently located among other eateries and shops. All in all, it's a fantastic dining spot.
Ordered the combo apetizer plate and combo rice noodle dish.. both were super flavorful and looked beautiful. I was so hungry and excited to eat i did not take fotos. I wish i lived closer to eat here often. I will be back if i can !
The sea nut soup was good, but the grilled pork was a bit bland for my liking.
Comments: I ordered takeout for the airport, and the food was fantastic. It tasted incredibly fresh and packed with flavor, truly authentic. I would highly recommend it to anyone!
Fantastic, authentic Vietnamese restaurant! We ordered takeout before our flight from SFO (it's just one exit before the airport, perfect for fueling up your rental car). The flavors were genuine, and the restaurant was clean and pleasant. The Vietnamese coffee also looked amazing!
