Lo Banh Cuon Thanh Tri

This Lo Banh Cuon Thanh Tri is conveniently located in the Sun Plaza. At Thanh Tri, you buy banh cuon or banh uot by the pound. They have meat filling, shrimp topping, fried shallot topping, and plain to choose from. It comes with the nuoc mam cham sauce. They also have cha lua and fried shallots if you want.I love picking up the Banh Cuon and Banh Uot from this location, stopping by Duc Huong to get some cha lua, and then to the Asian Live Seafood Market to pick up beansprouts, cucumbers, and Thai basil. Everything in the same plaza! Once I get all the ingredients, I come home and quickly prep and eat. It's definitely more affordable than eating out at the banh cuon restaurants.

Located in Sun Plaza off King Road. We were going to Asian Live Seafood Market and decided to drop by Lo Banh Cuon Thanh Tri to pick up some banh cuon. I think this is their 3rd location. I used to go to the one on Santa Clara Street when I was a kid, then migrated to the Senter Road location since it was newer and cleaner. Now this spot opened up! We got there a little before 10am on a Saturday and there was one lady before us. The storefront is pretty small, so we just waited outside until it was our turn. They only had a small selection of banh cuon.. there wasn't much left in the trays so we just picked what they had left.. I was pretty skeptical at first..We got..BANH HANH $6/lb -steamed rice rolls with fried shallots BANH TOM $6.50/lb -steamed rice rolls with toasted shrimp flakes Both were fresh and soft! The quality and taste is identical to the Senter Road location. YES. They gave us a container of fish sauce for the banh cuon but I like to make my own at home. It's convenient though if you're lazy or just short on time.This is a TO-GO place, so you just buy your banh cuon by the pound, as well as any extra sides you want (like cha lua/steamed pork roll-$7.50, hanh phi/fried shallots-$5), then assemble and eat at home. Glad they opened this newer location so we can pick up fresh banh cuon whenever we're craving and in the area! It's conveniently located next to the market and Duc Huong, so we can pick up all the essentials to make a plate of banh cuon at home.

Fresh made banh cuon (rice roll) and banh uot steam rice paper)! So good! It's just a shop in the corner, where they only sell the banh cuon and banh uot. You have to buy your veggies somewhere else. They even have cha lua (vietnames ham) on the side for you to buy. They sell by pound so you can just buy what you need and they give you nuoc cham (fish sause) too. Just remember to bring cash!

I felt the need to write this review because their service was so nice compared to the past banh cuon bulk orders I've visited in San Jose.My vietnamese is choppy but I try my best to order from these establishments in vietnamese. It's usually difficult for me because they can be very rude and rushy, but today I called in and the lady was so sweet and nice. Pretty sure it was the same lady when I picked up. She was very courteous and professional. Although the price may be a little more than the other places I would definitely recommend this place for young people like me that have a hard time ordering.The place was well lit, straight forward, and clean.

Super skimpy on filling and pretty much just all rice flour. We pre-ordered and when we came to pick up they ran out of some of the pork and didn't bother compensating anything for us. Would not return, skip this place.
