Spent the evening at a private holiday party surrounded by great people, memorable food, and exceptional wine. Somehow no photos—just good conversation and full plates. Access to this venue is worth seeking out.

The place was empty, and the lady stated that I needed to have reservations at least 24 hours in advance in order for me to have the privilege to eat in. So, I asked for carryout and was told that they don’t do carryout because the food will be too expensive for me to pay for. Thats when I realized that I was not welcome in their establishment. The only thing I can assume was that they only serve certain folks in there, and I don’t fit their profile. Their bad, and from other comments I read, I am glad that I did not eat their food.

35 minutes for one Pad Thai order to go. Entrees went up to almost $20 a plate. Chicken was old and dry. Absolutely gross. Will never go back.

Pleasantly surprised! I had their Pho and found that it was unlike any other in the city. The use of basil and something about the bone in recipie was different in a really great way. Try it out, you will be happy you did!

Every time we go, the food is on point and the service is exceptional.
It is a family run business with everything made in house, none of the prepackaged sauces, etc.
Specials are always incredible and he always has something new to try.
The wine.
When you walk in, look around the second room. Walls and walls of wine to choose from.
Will never stop going to Van’s, they have become like family over the years.

I’ve driven by it for years without trying it. Very good & slightly spicy hot & sour soup. Great garlic sauce on the Broccoli Garlic Sauce, which was really a good mix of vegetables. Good portions. Brought me fried rice instead of the requested steamed. Good though. Waiter had trouble taking the order the first time. Wine selection. A bit pricey at $9 for a vegetarian plate lunch. I’ll go back.

First place, everyday hours are 11:00am to 9:00pm. That was asked of me by the staff.
Okay now for the review. Just amazing. My dad and I were just wondering around the area and happened to find this place because it was still open. We approached the counter and asked a waiter to be seated, and he said that we could sit anywhere, which is actually a luxury for me since I’ve never been to a restaurant that has given us a choice.
Next, he gave us our menus, and after we asked about the dinner option, he showed us that he was very knowledgeable about it. He offered suggestions based on our preferences that we could not be happier with.
Oh, also, a side note: some of their foods have not been selling so well, so they were removed from the menu, though they have yet to update it. Just so everyone knows.
And by the way, my waiter’s name is Tommy. He is very patient, calm, and displayed a very professional attitude toward us. If you happen to have him serve you during your visit there, then everything will go smoothly from the moment you greet him to the moment you walk out.

You walk in and given a menu. The waitress tells you there is a $5.00 price increase on all the food. The portions are not worth a $5.00 price increase. The springs rolls are not as good as advertised. For good spring rolls, Taste of Asia or Kim Pho Long. The prices are way better than this place and better food. Or just go to an Asian Market by some frozen and fry them yourself

Great food, great service, and great company. Mongolian beef was awesome! Chicken lomein couldn’t be beat, and the fried dumplings were phenomenal! Not only that, but the owner/waitress has a great sense of humor as well as wisdom regarding menu choices! Wish it weren’t 300 miles, I want more!
