First time having bahn mi and loved it! Got takeout on a Monday tonight and they were fast and pleasant. Dumplings and sauce was fresh, Rangoons house made, Bahn Mi pork belly just came out of the oven and was great.

This is my FAVORITE place to eat lately. The Bahn mi is great – the Shrimp BUN noodles are unbelievably good and refreshing, is great for a hot summer day! Flavors are amazing in everything, including coffee. The Vietnamese Iced Coffee is to die for. I got the iced hazelnut espresso today, wow. So good!

I was bummed this place didn’t deliver as one would expect from the various 5 star reviews of late. However, it was a miss for us.

The meatball pho is very good. Generous amount of broth and toppings will leave you satisfied. The included hoisin and sriracha was a nice touch.

Chicken lo mein and crab rangoons were great – generous portions for reasonable prices. I will definitely be back to try something new next time.

Boba was good. But the service was not good. Went in it was dead and one guy was working. Herd him say “of corse they are getting bubble tea,” the Bao is a meatball.

The single staff should be the owner. As the only one customer, me ordered top pho item eat in and 3 banh Mi to go. 1) I hear microwave usage. Don’t remember seeing slice beef. Beef ball not quite the flavor/ off. Soup alone lighted side flavor 2) Sauce were all packages like ketchup which weren’t enough. 3) Ice coffee were off. Can’t taste the condense milk nor roasted bean. Overly packed with ice. 4) Bread sandwich not so impressive look but will hit it in the evening, fresh or not. Overall, the staff is Vietnamese native and kind. Sadly it is labor shortage. Good luck to the establishment. Update for sandwich. Plain bland. Meat is mushy. Probably microwave too. Discarded all 3 after 4 bites. So sorry .

Their crispy pork is amazing and I think about it every time I head out that way. Love their tea as well. Enjoyed all of their flavors. Depends on who makes them. One girl there filled the entire thing up with ice and that was quite annoying. But from all the appetizers and main entree, the food here is fantastic. That crispy pork though. You got to try it.

Taytene has become my family’s go-to takeout restaurant. The food is delicious – in particular the meatball pho, tofu pad thai and pork banh mi. Makes me so happy that they are “on this side of the bridge.” Prices are reasonable, and while they are usually busy – we don’t mind waiting for such a great meal.
