Every time I come to Greensboro, I always make a stop here. The food is made fresh to order. Prices are reasonable as well. They have their cafe and then you can go shopping in their store as well. They sell pre-packaged papaya salad kits in their fridge and more. Lots of drink selections as well. I also loved that they have egg rolls and snacks that you can buy at the register. They never make it home cause I eat them all while driving lol

We ordered a pork roll special Bahn mi and a curried chicken Bahn Mi. They were ok but I have had better at Saigon Bahn Mi in Greensboro. The rolls were tough and very chewy. Next time I'll try a papaya salad and sausage rolls. The two ladies working in restaurant were friendly and accommodating. I would recommend take out over dining in. . .

This tiny restaurant has two small tables and 4-5 stools but has big tastes in their dishes. Khao Poon has chicken feet snd butts and pig's blood cubes. Good luck finding dishes like that elsewhere! Vietnamese coffee is as thick as mud and just as sweet. The grocery store attached has the best fried puffy dough with sweet filling. They even have fresh sugarcane juice! Crazy! Don't look for bathrooms. Banh mi is subpar for being small and not great bread. It got soggy pretty fast. Go to a real banh mi place instead.

This little unpretentious gem may be reason enough for me to move to Greensboro. It’s a “mom and pop” small kitchen in the back of the grocery store. They make everything fresh and uses the freshest quality ingredients. I made a stop on the way to the airport to take away food. It’s so wonderfully good. The cooks truly care about their creation and it shows. There aren’t much ambience, but it’s very clean and comfortable. I can’t recommend highly enough as Lao/Thai person.

If you want some peace while you are eating! This is the place. Sadly, it's hidden away and hard to see its there. But, you have to try this awesome food. It is spicy, if you do not eat spicy, just say no spicy. I read the ingredients and it did not say it was spicy. I was on fire, but dropped my balls and ate it anyway. Hey I paid 12 bucks and I am not petty. I need to learn to ask questions before making my final order. The ladies were nice and so were the guys from Vietnam eating there. I will be back with my husband!

A very interdasting experience. It’s a grocery store in front and a mini restaurant in the back. A lot of Asian groceries I’ve never seen before. The cashier was very nice and helpful answering my many questions. There was an older gentleman sorting vegetables and he told me to ring the bell for service at the restaurant. The restaurant area had 2 tables and an Asian movie playing on the tv. They have boba tea here too. Tried papaya salad and this green ball tapioca wrap. I’ve had papaya salad in Thailand’s street market, this flavor came close to what I’ve had. Those ball things were interesting, it’s delicious. Will be back soon to try something else.

The store may not look like much from the outside but it is so quaint with plenty of seatings. The spring rolls are prepacked in threes and there is only one kind: shrimp. You order on a tablet and you will see options to customize your order. For example, the spicy basil, we got it with pork and fried egg and you will see the price change in the tablet. For three items, I paid around a little more than $30. I had the best papaya salad here. It is fresh and the kitchen made it just the way I requested. The kitchen staff were very friendly.
