Whoever decided playing dub step at 9pm on a Sunday night was a good idea needs to never get the aux chord passed to them for the rest of time - including any of their reincarnated lives.Entering this Vietnamese restaurant was peaceful until it turned into a Kafkaesque nightmare curated by a 90s DJ who never listened to music before. The music? It was as if someone had taken the sounds of a blender, a malfunctioning alarm clock, and a cat aggressively hitting a keyboard, and then remixed it with the subtlety of a jackhammer. I suspect the soundtrack was a sociological experiment to see how much auditory assault a human can endure before they lose all sense of dignity. But hey, the music did have range -- if by "range" you mean the sound of a war zone with various bombs dropping.Even the waiter couldn't comprehend a word we said when we asked if the music could be turned down. And to make matters worse, they refused to turn the music down. A dining experience was turned into survival mode. The only take away was that I need to learn sign language.The banh mi was good.

My Mom, one of my younger brothers, and a dear family friend were having a comfort meal at Hanoi Kitchen after a friend's funeral. I came here to pick up my Mom.It's quite spacious and long inside. The first thing that caught my attention was the beautiful wall art decor of Vietnam! It's so colorful and I can sense it is telling its history and stories. It's pretty neat!As I was waiting for my Mom, I flipped through the menu. I was curious what they have. Staff was super friendly. The nice gentleman answered my questions. Thank you young man! I found out this place serves North Vietnam foods and flavors which was intriguing. I ended up ordering 1 Banh Cuon and 1 Pho Chicken. The banh cuon took about 20 mins because it's made to order which was fine with me. It had lots of pork and wood ear filling in a thin layer of steamed rice roll. There were several rolls served with meatloaf and herbs plus bean sprouts along with fish sauce. It was divinely delicious. So was the Pho Chicken. Yum, yum! I saw the chicken oil in the soup. White chicken meat was tender. Herbs were very fresh. It's the real deal. I wish the portions was a bit bigger though. Anyhoo, I would get both items again!Funny, I didn't know this Vietnamese restaurant was here in Claremont until that day. I'll be back here to dine in and try more North Vietnam dishes. Happy Dining!

What a find! Glad to have my first visit during the holidays- amazing decorations!Just a fan of bahn mi sandwiches and pho. Passing through Claremont and a quick search brought me here.Entrance is grand with the nativity scene and decorations throughout. Seated right away on a Tuesday night. Ordered the chicken pho which had a few pieces of chicken and 2 types of noodles. The ratio of chicken to noodles - more chicken needed. Phos was good regardless of that. Bahn mi grilled pork was great! Enjoyed it to the last bite. The food took a little bit to come out and the water refill needs improvement. I like this place. I'll visit when I'm in the area.The restaurant is spotless with table condiments neat and organized. Staff is friendly. Only saw 1 guy working the dining room And a couple of guys in the kitchen.Parking lot in a strip mall. Might get busy since this place is shared with other places to eat.

Brought hubs here so he could check out the nightclub vibes with the thumping music, lights, and fog machine while enjoying his bowl of pho. He enjoyed his pho and said the broth was flavorful, but noted this may not be the place to go to if looking to have a quiet dinner. This time, I decided to order the Hainam chicken plate and kiddo ordered the Cornish hen plate. Although the flavor was ok for both of them, we both noted that the chicken and hen were on the dry side unfortunately.

Came here after a show at The Glass House. Closest place that did not serve tacos after 9pm. Good food. I had the shrimp cakes - fresh, tasty, and fresh veggies! Coffee was an delicious and kept awake for the ride back to OC! Clean. Efficient service!

The service was amazing and quick! Food was beyond delicious; especially the coconut cream coffee And the ambiance was giving comfy & aesthetically pleasing

I love this place! The food is always on point and I appreciate how late they're open. I always get the same guy when I go pick up my order and he is incredibly welcoming with a great attitude. I'm yet to eat in the restaurant but the vibes are always superb when I go in.

Very Yummy Pho and egg rolls! Quality meat and flavorful broth! Service was kind and affordable!

Short and simple... first time in this establishment, good and tasty food,clean ‼ and our server Tri was very respectful and accommodating. I will definitely come back.
