Thanh Son Hien Khanh

I've always wanted to try Thanh Son Hien especially after going to the spot down in SoCal. The shop has such a diverse and wonderful variety of Vietnamese dishes and goodies. The banh mi is delicious as the bread is so spot on to authentic Vietnamese bread. I loved all of the sticky rice and sweet deserts. There coconut milk paired with their desserts are fragrant and give a sweet pairing to the desserts. The egg rolls were by far my favorite. They were fried to perfection and the flavor was wineries. I'll definitely be back when I'm craving some Vietnamese food and desserts! The staff is really friendly and accommodating. They speak English and Vietnamese. The store is set up nicely to find different items.

Your typical Vietnamese food to go place. Nothing is priced, though you can ask them how much things are and they'll probably just shout you a price. As far as fresh? Doubtful for some of their products. But that is typical. They try to get rid of the desserts towards the end of the day with their "deals". I'm hoping the Che at least are made the day of. I go there because it's one of the few places I can find the jello dessert. Taste is sometimes bland or kinda taste like jackfruit. Which is weird for what I thought was typically coconut and pandan. Their pennyworth drink tastes either really bitter or like water. Lee's is actually better. And I hate that there's no date on them. Sweet sticky rice is ok. Could use some more taste. Honeycomb cake is basic. Banh cuon was alright. But the one with the meat inside was not good. Had a rancid smell so ended up throwing it away. Their Banh Mi is nicely packed though. Not a lot of places give you a lot of meat these days.

We came around 2:30pm on a Saturday for tofu and shockingly everything was all gone! They had desserts and banh cuon left but it all looked ok. The sweet rice lacked flavor outside of the durian.

We were looking for a place to grab some che after dinner while visiting San Jose.I did a quick yelp search and found this place that was nearby.When we went in, the place was super busy and I was amazed by all the different types of xoi, che, and viet food they had. They also sell banh mi here too!We ended up buying a lot of xoi (sticky rice) and che especially with the special promotion they had, which was buy 5 xoi and get 1 free or buy 10 che + xoi and get 1 free.We also tried their pandan mung bean milk which was the BEST we've ever had. So much better than the ones at boba shops as those were overly sweet and didn't have enough mung bean in it. There was so many things we wanted to try but that will need to wait till next time as we had already spent so much on this one visit.

Chúc Mừng Năm Mới! Happy New Year of the Dragon I am stuffing myself with my favorite Vietnamese foods from Thanh Son Hien Khánh The staff were very nice and helpful. There's some Vietnamese and English to help people figure out what ingredients are in each food. The place is very Vietnamese. Food everywhere and plenty of aunties to help.

The sugarcane juice here is so bad, I'm never returning. I love sugarcane and have it often, so I ordered two. Both tasted dirty, like it'd been left to ferment. It's quite expensive and mostly ice. I wish I could get a refund. It's horrible.

Thanh Son Hien Khanh has all the intangibles I want in a Vietnamese bakery: endless variety, locally minded patrons, and zero pretension with a family-run vibe. It's an ideal spot for a snack meal on the go and is situated in the heart of San Jose's Vietnam Town. (#1)The place feels a bit frozen in time with a 80s/90s retro feel and interior is really just being surrounded by pre-packaged foods all around. I think the staff is nice, but ordering in Vietnamese would be supremely helpful. For our non-tieng viet speaking friends, pointing works wonders.A lot of folks are here for the banh mi, which is pretty decent. I think their strongest suit is the rest of the items in the store: banh cuon, che, tofu, banh bao, and goi cuon. A lot of this stuff runs out in the afternoon and there can be a crowd here at any time. I love finishing everything with a nice tall Viet iced coffee bottle, which is near perfect during their hot summers.Come in the morning for the freshest selection. I don't love that the prices aren't listed on most of the boxed items and that they tend to close early sometimes. The ideal visit would consist of coming in, grabbing a number of items and eating it like a picnic / potluck style. Remember to bring cash as they don't accept credit cards.___________(#1) https://www.yelp.com/biz/vietnam-town-san-jose-3

My family has been coming here for ages. We love to pick up the fresh made tofu and soft tofu dessert with ginger sauce. The tofu is cool smooth and silky everything you would want in a light dessert. We especially love to get the pandan and taro jellies. Often times we get two boxes because the jelly is so good! It's bouncy and slightly sweet making for a light bite. They also have a bunch of premade foods to pick up making for a great grab and go experience. Everything we've tried from this spot has been a winner! Just make sure to bring cash as it is cash only to my knowledge.

Large meat portions, juicy, authentic banh mi! One of the better banh mi I've had for a cheap price. It's a nguyen-nguyen (win-win) deal. You know it's authentic when all the aunties only speak Vietnamese with other handmade deserts in the store. Definitely give this place a try if you're craving banh mi.

I when to this place often, but so sad maybe not anymore Something in my xôi sầu riêng
