I've ordered from here on Uber Eats and thought we'd give the restaurant a try. So we walk in and you order first before being seated. I shouldn't have ordered in Vietnamese though, they have a diverse staff. The pho was flavorful and came with two types of chili and basil but the pho noodles were a little overcooked. The stars were the pork sausage rolls that come with a great chunky thick peanut sauce, and the lychee green tea! Nice ambience inside since the place looks recently renovated.
Stopped by Vui Ve and loved everything we ordered. We had the Bun Bo Hue and the spring rolls. The broth in the Bun Bo Hue was comforting with just the right amount of spice, and the spring rolls were light and refreshing with a tasty dipping sauce. The space has a really nice, chill atmosphere, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. Definitely a great spot if you're craving delicious Vietnamese food in LA. We'll be back!
I've been to Vui Ve few times now specifically for the rolls. Spring rolls and egg rolls are what I've picked up here. If you're not really hungry great place to pick up spring rolls to keep it light. I would say call in your order. In case you're short on time and don't want to wait. Great lunch specials during the week from 11:00 am to 3:00pm for $13.95. One of these days I'll give it a try.
It was a good place to go to I had the pho combo with egg rolls. It wasn't the best I have had but it was tasty the crew seemed very nice and it seemed clean it's kind of tucked away hidden place.
Drinks are really good. The coffee is strong and has alot of flavor, so does the lemonade. They also have lunch specials, I will definitely come back for that next time.
Love love LOVE this place! This pho restaurant is hands-down one of my favorites! No other place makes their pho as perfectly spicy as they do. If you're someone who loves intense heat that'll make you tear up (in the best way), this is the spot for you. My go-to when I'm feeling under the weather is the oxtail pho, extra spicy--it's so comforting and flavorful. I also love that they're generous with the shrimp in the shrimp pho. Another must-try is their brisket sandwich, which is absolutely delicious. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything here is incredible, and I can't recommend it enough! And I love how quiet and clean the place is . Getting here is a bit tricky. It's inside the Japanese Village Plaza in the far back.
Needed a quick dinner before a dodger game and Vui Ve served! The dining room is on the smaller side but staff were helpful to rearrange to accommodate our party of 5. We had the chicken salad, spring roll sampler, bahn mi in chicken and pork, and brisket pho. The spring roll sampler includes one of each: chicken, shrimp, and pork. The pork sausage was surprisingly my favorite because I'm not a huge fan of pork. It was crispy and flavorful. The peanut sauce was delicious. The spring roll are cut in half so it's shareable. Also filling on its own. I wonder if dipping in pho broth would amplify the taste much like the broth they offer with bahn mi for dipping. I keep forgetting to use my Yelp check in offer but next time!
