A Taste of Vietnam

Ordered via seamless for dinner and I was pleasantly surprised. Their spring rolls (summer rolls) with shrimp was so incredibly fresh and delicious that I was inspired to go back home that night, learn how to make spring rolls from my Vietnamese mother, and then eat more spring rolls that same night. I cannot say I enjoyed the Chicken Satay at all (very dry and zero flavor). Despite only taking a bite of that chicken and throwing away the rest, I would come back only for the spring rolls.

I ordered takeout on a Sunday night at 5:45 because I felt lazy. My order promptly arrived at my doorstep in only 25 minutes! Wowza, I’m loving the Eat24 app. Note: order minimum is $ 15
Anyway, I ordered the papaya salad and the healthy chicken curry. Both items had very large portions– easily can be split in two meals. The papaya salad tasted great and contained shrimp, not just veggies. The chicken dish was delicious overall, but the chicken, although tasty, was very fatty. I did enjoy the perfectly cooked menagerie of veggies. The sauce was excellent, but a wee bit on the runny side.
For quick and tasty Vietnamese delivery you can’t go wrong with this place. I will certainly order from here again.

Ordered Chicken Salad and Vegetable rolls with strict instructions not to ring the doorbell. They took well over an hour to deliver the food. Chicken was covered in fat, vegetable rolls were cold and yep you guessed it they rang the doorbell multiple times. I won’t be going back.

People were nice and the delivery was quick.
The food was heinous. I ordered the «chicken» and garlic noodles. Per their menu this was supposed to be made of chicken thighs. The dark meat was very gamey in taste and was 1 piece about the size of 2 chicken breasts. Last time I checked chicken thighs were maybe ¼ of what I got. The skin was still on and VERY thick, again the chicken skin I’m familiar with is maybe a millimeter in thickness.
I stopped eating the meat not only because I was weirded out but because it tasted like horrible lamb that was rolled in garbage and then left on the counter for a week. Switching to the noodles, because who can mess those up, I found soggy noodles with another rotten garlic taste.

Extremely fast delivery, within 25 minutes. (I think ours came in 15 – 20). I’ve never known any Vietnamese place to deliver so this was just awesome in my book. Garlic noodles plus honey pork, good choice!
Decent dining on a budget; especially if you’re too lazy to cook!

Food was delicious. Totally made up for the bad service. Price was great for the portion sizes.

I’ve only ordered delivery from this restaurant on Seamless Web. I got the spring rolls with prawns and the five spice chicken with vermicelli noodle. The spring rolls were very overpriced and had very little shrimp. The five spice chicken with noodle was very good though. Chicken was tender and had good flavor.

Ordered here via Seamless for lunch, and the food was pretty good! Pricey for what it was though– I ordered honey pork with garlic noodles (kinda sad there was no option to get white rice instead), and my friend ordered garlic fish with garlic noodles, and our total was $ 25 before tip. Our quoted arrival time was 45 – 60 minutes, and it came right on the dot at 45 minutes. The food wasn’t as warm as it could have been, but hey, it’s delivery.
Will probably order from here again when I’m in the mood for a little splurge.

I don’t know why reviews are bad for this place?! We always order for delivery at work & food is freshly prepared, & delicious! Now for the first time, I finally get to dine in with my fam & everything we ordered on the menu (surprisingly had a great choice of both Vietnamese & Thai cuisine) were all scrumptious! Come & try for yourself!

I ordered Saigon Noodle with Honey Pork and Vegetarian Rolls and curry puff. The noodle was a little too soft but the rest was pretty good and the portion was more than enough. I couldnt finish it. Delivery was quick too so overall I recommend this place.

Another horrible delivery experience similar to those below. Decided to order through Seemless. The delivery window was from 30 – 45 minutes stated by A Taste of Vietnam Noodle Bar & Gril. Placed the order and waited and waited and waited and waited some more. I gave them a ring after an hour and a half. I received an abrupt «Oh the delivery guy just left. He’ll be there in 15 minutes.» Nope. Another 35 minutes later we receive our food. It took us just about TWO HOURS to receive our delivery.
Onto the food. Lukewarm noodles with soggy soft shell crab. Not my idea of «soft» shell crab. I for one, LOVE garlic, but this was ridiculous. It was garlic and noodles with soggy crab on top. A co-​worker order five spiced chicken. It seemed as if they had cooked it 5 times. DRY!
Save yourself the trouble and hit up PERILLAS like we should have.
ATVNB&G — Get your act together. There are many other amazing restaurants in SF and customer service goes a very long way. Two hours for a delivery is NOT acceptable. If you are not able to fulfill the Seemless orders accordingly, don’t do them. Delayed deliveries are only hurting your business.

i seriously don’t know what the other reviews are about.
i order from this place (delivery) about 5 times a month to work, and now to home!
consistently awesome are the:
–papaya salad (has charcoaled grilled shrimp that’s great)
–honey pork with garlic noodle (pork is also grilled with a little blackened flavor, so yummmm)
–lava beef with brown rice (the meat is SO tender and the sauce is divine)
the brown rice is awesome; it’s like a mixture of rice and is far superior to regular brown rice. i actually prefer this brown rice over white rice for asian food.
i’ve never sat down to eat at this place, but i’m disappointed that it has such negative reviews. i’ve tried other asian delivery places, and i find that their food is far superior.
on seamless, this place has great reviews, and many of the people on seamless order the same things i do, so those may be the most popular dishes. so yum!

I’ve ordered delivery from them twice. It’s been alright, not my favorite viet food ever, but good. Prices are ok. 10% cashback from eat 24 is definitely a plus.

This place is appropriately named. While it kinda tastes like the Vietnamese food I know and love, something’s a bit off.
The 5-​spice chicken had lots of chicken, but it didn’t taste right. The rice noodles were thick and overcooked and the imperial rolls tasted more like egg rolls from a bad Chinese fast-​food joint.

Quite good fast delivery in the middle of the day (3PM) via seemless.
The mango with sticky rice is quite delicate
Sweet basil vegetable end up to be with more minced meat — not bad. Tasty. Brown rice costs extra.
I like the garlic noodle, only 5 dollars! And it is amazing

The food tastes like Thai food. King of Thai is cheaper and better even without the 20% off coupon from seemless.

I’m really wavering here between 2 and 2.5 stars. Tried time for the first time for delivery a week ago. Not a true Vietnamese place, but a fusion of neighboring countries. Got the veggie imperial rolls, garlic noodles, and the lava beef. Honestly, this should have been enough for two people. I don’t think we are porkers, and our appetite is healthy, but splitting appetizers, a side, and a main should have been enough to fill our bellies.
Delivery came quick. The rolls are the small variety, rolled neatly, a lot like the size my mother would make at home, not the giant, crispy deep friend monstrosities (I mean this in a good way as I love them!). They were okay. The garlic noodles were interesting, and the beef tasted pretty fresh.
But everything was pretty scant. I mean $ 14 for lava beef and $ 7 for noodles, and it’s barely one portion. Barely.
This is not an exaggeration. The portions are small. I ordered a meal that should have fed two people (and cost me $ 35), but that was just enough for one person.
So while I may appear to be a pain because I’m complaining about portion sizes, I really hope this restaurant takes the comment seriously. Either charge a little less for the noodles or give a little more. $ 7 for noodles with pieces of garlic that can barely fill a little child up only makes me feel ripped off. :(
I will definitely try this place again as there is strong potential for us to build a great relationship. I really want to like A Taste of Vietnam, but we will see what will happen.

Boo. Boo to A Taste of Vietnam. 2 stars for having very fast delivery and for being edible, but that’s about it. Total rip-​off in comparison to other Vietnamese restaurants/​any other restaurant. I could tell right away when the delivery guy handed over the bag of food that I was being gyped. It didn’t have any heft to it at all. You know why? Because half of the take-​out box was filled with a pretty (useless) [and fake] green «salad.» I wanted garlic noodles and honey pork, not salad!
As for the food, the honey pork is strangely sweet. I don’t know why they don’t have regular pork like most other places do, but I didn’t want chicken so this was the only option. Noodles were average – garlicky and buttery.
Props for being the only Vietnamese restaurant that will deliver to the FiDi at night, but I will not be ordering from here again. Boo again!
UPDATE: minus 1 star for the serious case of food poisoning I got a few hours later.

They came within 25 minutes. That is FAST in my world of delivery orders. It may be because they’re not that busy yet, but that was certainly promising. I had the garlic noodles, lava lamb, firecracker chicken, and duck imperial rolls. Can’t speak to its authenticity, but all of it sho is tasty. And I wasn’t even hungry.
*an hour later… still NOT hungry. yet still eating cuz it tastes good.

This is a review of delivery from «A Taste of Vietnam».
Overall, the green beans with chicken was good. The vegetables were very crisp which was nice. It was still relatively warm. It could of stood for a little more spicy zip to it. The rice was a little mushier than I prefer.
Their menu is not really traditional Vietnamese food. It is more Cambodian or Thai.
Delivery was prompt, professional, and polite. Ordering is easy via Grubhub.
This isn’t rockstar food. But, if you are hungry and want decent food, it will do the trick. Decent minimum ($ 15) for delivery. Decent prices too.
I would order from them again.
