Menu pictures look exactly like the good comes out. Although the potatoes were al dente the flavor was good. Chicken wasn't breast meat but didn't claim to be. Just wished they had more vegetarian options. My husband had kimchi seafood dish. It satisfied our hunger but nothing mind blowing. Young servers who seat you and check when your done so kinda disappointed.

Delicious and tasty food. I have tried the Vietnamese noodle soup and Pork chops; they both were really good. They offer a good variety of choices. The menu comes with pictures for every single plate. The place is exceptionally clean and well decorated. Definitely a place to recommed to family and friends.

Decided to give this spot a try even after some friends and family already said go else where. Let's just say that I should have listen. Never will I come back. I order 2 appetizers. Calamari and Bone Marrow To Go. Took 40mins. They was slow as hell too. 3 tables maybe 9 customers. These folks have no idea what they doin....

Awesome bone marrow and ox tail soup!

The first clean and classy asain cusine restaurant in Stockton. A modern apporach in its food offering as well as it interior decor. Portion sizes are small but makes up in flavor and quality. Service could get better due to training of the staff and acquiring new and young talent. Pleasurable dining every time i visit and looking forward to the progress this new hip spot has to offer.

Yummy! Customer service was good. BBH has a good spice to it. FYI, if you're looking forward to eat noodles like Hoa viet, this isn't for you.

The food and service was great! Love the fried scallion!! Though the noodles we got weren't as flavorful as we thought but that's okay. Everyone's taste buds are different. We will be coming back to try out something different.

Tried this the other day on a whim. Comfortable setting and particularly friendly server are the highlights. Ordered the Bun Bao Hue, got a bowl of boiled grease with hardly any noodles, one shrimp, no pork blood and was heavily doused in what tasted like a crapton of sriracha sauce in an attempt to mask the flavor. Partner ordered the Braised Ox Tail, got a bowl of stock pho broth with a nearly meatless bone and not much else. I've eaten at Vietnamese restaurants and noodles shops all across the country, this is, hands down, the worst I've ever had plopped in front of me. If you're in Stockton and looking for decent Vietnamese soup, there are two established places within less than five minutes drive of this place.

They removed my first review ?♀️ The fish wrap was overly seasoned, super-salty, we brought it home but ended up in the trash. The chicken rice plate was ok. Won’t come back
Tried this place for first time. Ordered to go. I ordered a Hainanese chicken rice combo with the white meat,also a boneless fried chicken rice combo. I walked in to pick up food looked around nice cute restaurant. Will have to eat in next time. The portions are plenty but my white meat chicken was dry not moist and tender. The soup which came with the food was really tasty and also you get a tomato Cucumber salad with too much raw onions on it. Would leave onions out! The fried chicken was ok not special. I would try it again but try something different.

It is said that we eat with our eyes before we actually taste with our mouths. Each dishes were beautifully plated- - paying special attention to presentations. Interior is clean and modern with plenty of windows bringing in the natural lighting which lends to an airy atmosphere. Service was top notch! The waitstaffs were friendly and attentive. They frequently checked in on us without being overbearing. Our host, Philip took the time to chat with us as well. I was very impressed to say the least. The menu is trimmed which allows the chefs to hone in on the dishes and perfect their crafts. We started off our meal with the boneless chicken app. The menu featured tenders drenched in a honey glazed sauce. We asked if it can be made without the sauce and wanted both the honey glazed and sriracha aioli sauces on the side. Our server accommodated our request without any hesitation. It was a delicious prelude to what's to come. Braised Oxtail Pho isn't Pho in the traditional sense. Besides all of the standard components, it also has a subtle taste of lemongrass. The house made chili oil was infused into the broth as well. It was an interesting and flavorful twist on the classic. Hainanese Chicken & Rice was delightful with a medley of vegetables dressed in a light vinaigrette. It brought a nice freshness to the dish. The rice was fragrant but, slightly dry. The accompanied broth helped to rehydrate and enhanced the flavors. While the trio of dipping sauces is a great concept unfortunately, it did not complement the chicken. Some form of spicy-citrusy sauce would have made a better pairing. Having had this delicious dish in Singapore, I'm partial to their iconic recipe. The Seared Fish Wrap was served in a sizzling platter and the vibrant colors were aesthetically pleasing. The fish was tender and filled with savory and herby flavors. The lettuce wrap style is great for people who are more health conscious. However, I felt a side of rice would've worked better to balanced out the richness of the dish and a dip (something with lemon infused) would've heightened the overall flavor profile. Seafood and citrus are known to be the perfect pairing. What better way to end a meal than with a decadent dessert? The fried bananas (Turon) and vanilla ice cream with berries was the perfect ending to our meal. The bonus part, it was complimentary from our host. Philip, we thank you for this generous gesture! Aroma Noodles is a place to be adventurous and expand your palate. Do stop by the next time you're in the area!

The inside is pretty big. I feel like you wouldn't have to make a reservation for this kind of place. I had the lamb skewers, pho w/ oxtail and it was pretty good and I was satisfied from it. I don't understand why there is bad reviews. This is more like a mid tier restaurant in Stockton.
