Quan Hue Restaurant

Nostalgia hit me hard today so I decided to relive my childhood eating in this plaza and from this decades old restaurant.
Expecting only good food, who knew I'd be blown away by the owner of this restaurant.
She took care of us - really, truly. As my friends and I were discussing what to order, she willingly jumped in to help us refine our choices.
Also, when I mentioned that one of my friends was gluten-free, she went out of her way to confirm her vermicelli noodles had no gluten by sharing the actual product she used so we can verify the ingredients ourselves. The cherry on the top was her honesty.
With our stomachs bigger than our eyes, we ordered several items for just the 3 of us.
She literally stopped us in our tracks and said that's too much and so, we removed an entree thanks to her recommendation.
And she was right.
If we had that additional dish, it would've pushed us over the edge.
We managed to finish exactly what we had to end up feeling perfectly content. Impeccable customer service aside, we very, very much enjoyed everything we ate.
We particularly liked the banh uot thit nuong - no surprise it's one of her most popular and top dishes.
She herself expressed her pride about the dish.
We also ordered com tam with the works.
It turns out the fried chicken is gluten-free since it's made with tapioca flour (my partner was delighted).
I would also go out of my way for her banh bot loc because it tasted fresh and not reheated like other Hue restaurants in the area.
I did wish her banh khot was crispier but that's a personal preference.
And the bun cha nem nuong was good bang for the buck. I could go on.
Like we also loved the tea - a lovely finishing touch to a hearty meal.
Anyways, we'll have to come back for the banh xeo since she bent over the counter just to get our attention while at our table and told us we should try this dish next 😂

Spectacular Vietnamese food with a focus on Hue specialties.
Every dish we have tried has been a huge hit

My wife and I both love this place.
Everything they made is delicious, they have been opened for 32 years and the food is so authentic.
Not only the snacks people are sharing through photos but also the broken rice.
Their fried chicken and eggs cakes are also fantastic!
