Bon Mua Vietnamese Restaurant

Located in south Sacramento in a plaza with a variety of Asian eats and businesses is Bon Mua. I haven't eaten here in years but came with friends for a birthday celebration. They can accommodate solo, big, or small group dining. I couldn't decide on a rice plate or pho so I ended up getting both and I appreciate that they allowed me to order a kids pho. I got the C1 rice place which is like the pho dac biet of rice plates. It has a variety of proteins and everything was really good and well made. For your first time here or if you're craving a rice plate, I highly recommend the C1. The pho was good but I definitely preferred the rice plate. Service here was also spectacular. Great and attentive staff. I look forward to coming back again in the future.

Came here during lunch, and it wasn't busy at all. There were plenty of tables and booths open, which was nice. I liked that they decorated for Tet since it's coming up. The service was fine, but everything came out hot, and the portions were decent for the price. That said, there was a fly on top of the hot sauce bottle, and it was just gross. It kept flying around our food the whole time, and honestly, it ruined the vibe. Definitely not the cleanest experience.H2 (Dry Style): The noodles were all clumped together, and since they were chewy glass noodles, it was extra hard to separate them. The seasoning on the sauce and ground pork was good. The extra meat that came with it, though, was super dry. The broth was the best - light, not too oily, and had great flavor. The meat in the soup was really tender.B9: This was a big letdown. The tofu was only seasoned on the outside, so the inside was just plain and boring. The sauce didn't help either. It didn't have much flavor. Overall, it just tasted like nothing.

Everything on this plate was delicious and I was surprised how they give you 2 pieces of pork chop too (cause most places will just give you one)!We usually come here for their delicious pho with fresh rice noodles, but their com tam is definitely a second reason to come visit here. This plate here is #C3 on their menu, which has shredded pork (bi), steamed egg meat loaf (cha), and ground shrimp wrapped in tofu skin (tau ky).This was super filling and you bet I had leftovers to take home!

I have been to this restaurant several times while living in Davis & tried their banh beo, pho, and Bun bo hue. I personally think their bun Bo hue broth lacks in the rich flavor that BBH is known for and their banh beo tapioca consistency is just alright. Not the best for Viet food but it is definitely better than other Vietnamese restaurants I've tried in the Sac / Davis area. Their menu items are pretty decently priced -- a bowl of pho is about $13.50 which is relatively cheap compared to other pho restaurants which charge about $16 per bowl of pho. I gave this restaurant a 4/5 because their service is good and the food is pretty decent :)

I went with my friend for lunch. He said he wanted to try it out. I have never been here. The place is in a strip mall. We were able to park right in front. We were greeted right away and sat down. There were about three other tables with customers. It is an ok size place. My friend ordered for me and we both got the big rice plate. It had I think 4 different meats on it . It came with a broth to wash down all the meat. I loved it. The meats were really good. It came with an egg roll, laup chung, some pork and a fried patty with meat and crab in it. The rice had a soft boiled egg on it. A side salad and some dipping sauce. It all had a great flavor and we both could not finish all of our food. Doggy bag. Not a bad place at all. Will have to come by again.

I recently visited Bon Mua and ordered the P2 steak pho. The broth was incredibly flavorful, which made the dish stand out. They offer two types of noodles: skinny and thick. While I appreciated the option, the thick noodles were more reminiscent of Alfredo pasta noodles, which I wasn't expecting, though they were still very soft and enjoyable.The steak itself was a bit of a letdown for me--I didn't like that it had fat still attached. While some may enjoy that, I prefer my steak leaner. The pho came with the usual sides of bean sprouts, mint, lemon, and sliced jalapeños, which were fresh and plentiful.I ordered the small size for $13.30, and to my surprise, it was quite a generous portion--what I would consider closer to a large serving at other places. A large portion is priced at $16.The restaurant has a friendly and efficient staff, which added to the overall positive experience. The space is average in size with about 9 tables and 5 booths, making it cozy but not cramped. The only downside is the location--being in a busy lot means parking can be challenging.Overall, I enjoyed my food and experience at Bon Mua and would recommend it for a satisfying bowl of pho.

Great ambiance inside, clean bathroom, and good price for a value meal!First time here.The chicken wings were fried well with a perfectly crispy skin and solid sweet/spicy Sriracha flavor.The rice plate was huge-easily can share . Great variety with pork, patty slice, salad and rice.The Bo kho I subbed with clear glass noodles had a robust flavor (more soupy vs some can have a thicker broth). Comforting for the cold weather.Coffee was solid-strong to get you through the day.This place was packed on a Sunday early afternoon. I'd happily return here vs Saigon oi across the street.

This pho place is always welcoming when we arrive. The servers speak English and vietnamese and are attentive. I like the rice and vermicelli dishes as well as the soups here. They have a variety of food so you can chose whatever you're in the mood for. Sometimes I can't decide with the numerous options so I will get 2-3 dishes for myself. I gave this place a 5star because they're always consistent with the food orders. The restaurant is always clean and pretty chill. The sports channels are always on so I'd watch the games when I eat here.

Was craving some com tam after my hike. I ordered the bon mua com tam. It was a packed plate and loved that it came with a side of broth. I don't see this done anymore where I'm from. Every piece of protein was delicious. The Chinese sausage was a bit dry. The pork was grilled well. I was hungry but I had to still take some home and had a decently leftover meal from it.

This was my go to spot for pho.. we ordered pho dac biet and chicken wings to share.. the pho came out luke warm, and the side of raw beef could not cook in the pho broth.. they make too much and fell off I guess
