This has been our go to spot for Vietnamese food when we visit SoCal. The food and flavors are always consistent and we love that there is a huge seafood selection on their menu. Our favorite dishes are Tom Cang Hot Pot and Salted Egg Yolk Shrimps. The staffs (Truc & Nga) were great and attentive! They were very patient and kindly explained some of the dishes to us. They kept coming up to our table to check on us even though there was a full house. If you love seafood and unique flavors, Lau Tom 5 Ri Restaurant is the place to go. But remember, it's a popular spot and not a big restaurant, so you might have to wait a bit, especially is during rush hours. If you are looking to indulge in delicious food and hospitality, this restaurant is sure to surpass your expectations. 10 out of 5 stars easily. I look forward to my next visit!
Great little place that has authentic food from Bien Hoa. The shrimp pot is delicious but it was so sugary sweet so we added the two fish sauce dish that they provided and it was perfect. The papaya salad was good too. The only snail is not that good. They should change it to the Canadian sea snails. All and all they have good food here.
Good food, good services... absolutely come back Lẩu cua đồng ngon, quá chừng cua luôn í. Tôm càng cháy tỏi ngon hết sảy... đừng quên cơm chiên cá mặn nửa nhe pà con
