My Lai Kitchen - Sunset

Staff is very welcoming. This is a small place to grab lunch to eat there or take it to go.Build Your Own Bowl- 10/10 Very generous portion. I did enjoy being able to build my own bowl. They had many different toppings to choose from. They also have a great variety of sauces.

Build your own bowl has increased in price by $2 in five months?! MASSIVE price increase. Not cool. Won't be back.

First of all....I really don't like writing bad reviews as I'm in the service industry and I know how hard this business is, however, when things are as bad as this order, a business needs to know. As I understand it, a Bahn Mi sandwich in general has a basic set of ingredients, one of them is a pate of some sort. I didn't see it listed as an ingredient so, I assumed it was implied. There is none such. Sadly, as you can see from the photos, this is basically a few parts of a traditional Bahn Mi thrown into a halved French loaf haphazardly. When you order a sandwich, especially delivered, you expect it to be, at the very least, completely composed. This, was a mess. A mess that also, was barely dressed. A pinch of each vegetable ingredient, at best. We ordered the vegan option of tofu based on Instagram photos and how good it looked. A gross misinterpretation of what arrived. At almost $19 for a sandwich, I expect better. Everyone does. Even the bread was stale. The $16 vegan sausage rolls? 3 of them. Cold. Our order even with some fees removed was $60.Look My Lai, I am truly sorry to write this review, but if you are charging these inflated prices for items that have a food cost of very little as is these sandwiches and rolls, you NEED to do better than this in Los Angeles. We gave a new thing a chance. If you want to survive in the city of Hollywood, this isn't going to remotely cut it. Two stars is only because 1.) there's a vegan option that if nothing else in town were available, at least we know this is here for now 2.) delivery fees removed as a promo. At these prices and such poor quality, build, and presentation? Two stars is extremely generous.

As a tamarind lover, I frequently daydream about My Lai's tamarind vinaigrette, which tastes even better when combined with their peanut sauce.I first visited My Lai for a Yelp Elite event a few months ago, where I was really impressed with the freshness and flavor of their ingredients. I've returned a couple of times since then, and have opted for the "build your own bowl" which is a Chipotle-style order of customizing a Vietnamese rice/noodle/salad bowl with tons of delicious toppings. The portions are generous, which justifies the price for me (~$17-18) because I usually have leftovers. There are lots of unique sauce options and you can get more than one.Most of the ingredients for the bowl are excellent. However, their garlic rice is underwhelming, when it could and should be the star of the show! Otherwise, I love My Lai and will keep coming back.

This is the best Vietnamese fusion restaurant I have ever been to. They have brown rice & offers grilled chicken with 4 kinds of pickled vegetables as sides. There's at least 6 different sauces, I will make sure to come back to try each one. On my first visit I got the tamarind sauce and it was fantastic. Only problem though, is the price per bowl is $17. On + On kitchen is $13 per bowl, but to be fair, My Lai Kitchen offers a bigger bowl. I will be a regular to this place.

Continuing on my mission to write reviews to businesses that have been helping the community, here's to My Lai! During the LA Wildfires, they're offering free meals to the firefighters. My Lai Kitchen is owned by Traci Davis, a Vietnamese-American highlighting dishes that she grew up with. What I love about My Lai is the fact that they're creating a Chipotle/Cava style restaurant where you can build your own bowl, but a Vietnamese version of it. The ingredients are fresh and make you feel good about your choice. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone in the WeHo area looking for delicious, clean Vietnamese food.

A solid location! It's basically a Vietnamese chipotle, with the way you order and it's served. I grabbed the grilled chicken with a bunch of veggies and rice.It was a solid dinner, especially for the size and price. If I'm in a pinch or don't have time, I would high suggest this location.

This is my new favorite spot for outstanding banh mi sandwiches!Service is fantastic, the gentleman helping me was super friendly and helpful while another lady - I believe the owner - was so kind and sweet to everyone.The bread used for the banh mi is perfect. Fluffy interior with a crisp outside. The pork was so flavorful and had a good bite. The veggies were all fresh, the pickles added a depth of flavor to cut the richness of the meat, and the Viet style mayo added a creamy and sweet flavor. The Thai Tea was also amazing, not overly sweet or rich like a lot of places do. I'm not sure if it's made from scratch here but it sure tastes like it!I'll be returning any chance I get

Food 3.5/5: the pork bahn mi was a bit too chewy for me. The bowl was delicious but I think my husband and I did not enjoy the sauce that we chose as much. But my husband loved the bahn mi.Service 5/5: owners served us and they were very friendlyAmbiance 5/5: pretty and modern design, for quick eats and the price, we would come again!

Absolutely delicious ! I tried this place on 1/23//25 at 8PM, I ordered the garlic rice with chicken bowl and veggies. Super delicious , the place is clean and cute , the young lady that helped me is polite . Will be eating here again! Thank you
