I've always loved the sweet soy sauce that accompanies it. We also tried the Stir Fried Mixed Vegetable Seafood with Flat Rice Noodles and paid an extra $3.00 to have it pan-fried crispy. It was definitely worth it; it tasted amazing, especially when it was super crispy. I highly recommend this place! I also noticed several tables ordering fried rice, which looked absolutely delicious.

It feels more like a cafeteria than a restaurant with the noise level and type ofservice you received. Great for a very casual fast meal. Food ordered was ready really fast too.

The banh bot chien is definitely much better than tan tan because it actually tastes fresh rather than stale. I’m giving one star less because the waitlist is for the restaurant next to Jia Kitchen, which confused a lot of people, myself included. It appears they own the space next door and the two are connected, but just to clarify, it’s not called Jia Kitchen.

However, we discovered that it was actually the same as Tan Tan Wok next door, just under a different name, after we were already seated. We ordered several dishes: banh bot chien, cashew chicken, roti, rice soup (congee), and duck soup, totaling $57. The food was quite good overall, but our main issue was with the duck soup, which was very greasy, with a noticeable layer of oil floating on top that wasn't very appetizing. We mentioned this to the waiter, but he simply suggested that we order it with less oil next time. We thought this was a bit odd, as we weren't sure how we were supposed to know that in advance.

We will definitely return to explore more items from the extensive menu. There are so many options to choose from!
