Excellent canh bún. They open early if you are looking for a hearty Vietnamese style breakfast. I only come here for the canh bun so I don't know if the other dishes are as good. The place appears to be clean and spacious. The service is good. Must try canh bún here!

Bun is consistently delicious and always ready quickly when order. They give plenty of rau muốn or greens. Customer service is hot or miss. The lady is very nice but the man can be a little blunt.

I have been coming here since I was a kid, and this place brings back memories of how the real bun rieu is supposed to taste. Bun rieu is my second favorite Vietnamese dish after pho, and I work night shifts, so the stores close when I get off from work or school. This leads to other restaurants serving bun rieu late at night. And let me tell you, some places serve bun rieu, but it's either too salty, too much crab, or too tomato(ty). Or too sour. This place serves the right amount of flavors of bun rieu. I love going here, but the downside is they only take cash, not cards.

ORDER canh bun / bun rieu (5/5) my all time favorite spot for canh bun or bun rieu! they don't skimp out on the toppings and the broth is packed with flavor. the bun cha gio thit nuong is also good here. ps it's cash only SERVICE (5/5) nothing special, but no complaints. i usually call ahead when i order togo and my order is always ready upon arrival. AMBIANCE super spacious restaurant with plenty of tables.

Hidden Gem for Canh Bun Lovers! Quan Bun Ban Mai is the absolute best for Canh Bun Thap Cam in Orange County--no competition. This spot screams authentic Hue Vietnamese food. The inside is a bit older and rustic, but it just adds to the genuine vibe of the place. The flavors? Oh, they hit the spot every single time. Canh Bun is my go-to here, and let me tell you, it's the hero of Vietnamese dishes. Superior to everything else, hands down. Plus, it's inside ABC Supermarket plaza, so you get the whole experience. Just a heads up, it's cash-only, but totally worth it. The customer service is chill--they do what they need to do. It's more of a traditional Vietnamese vibe, so don't expect 5-star service, but that doesn't take away from the incredible food experience.

My mom and her friend took me on a food tour. This is definitely a place to stop by! We all got a bowl of bun rieu. The flavor is so pungent, and tastes very good before the added shrimp paste. They put a lot of meat toppings which is reassuring. I really like the taste of the rieu in the bowl.
