Best KPortal Reviews
When I came to Thien An Bo 7 Mon, I wasn't sure what to expect. This was my first time coming to a Vietnamese restaurant. I came in pretty blindly but I was pleasantly surprised.
Upon entering, I was seated very quickly and able to get served just as quickly. The rest of my party was also seated very quickly as well. The servers are all very nice and understanding. Once I made known of a food allergy, they were very accommodating. I had a feeling I was in very good hands.
The ambience of the restaurant was very welcoming and spacious. I really appreciate restaurants that are spacious because I need elbow-room so I can thoroughly grub on my food Lol. They also have a large screen that displayed aquatic life the night that I went which created a very nice vibe.
Now, finally the FOOD! The food was SOOOO good! Everything was seasoned very well and the veggies were all fresh! They even offer a vegan egg roll for those who do not eat meat, which was also very delicious. The experience was very hands-on which I really enjoyed. I customized my spring rolls to my liking as well as the sauce! They offer plenty of food options so it makes customizing not only delicious but fun to experiment with different flavors. The highlight was definitely the catfish! I'm not a big fan of catfish usually but this catfish was absolutely delicious and changed my mind completely!
This is a restaurant where you can take your friends, family, coworkers, etc. just to have a good time and eat good food! I will definitely return!
Overall great food. Obviously, it is going to be more expensive than if we buy the stuff to make rolls at home but the convenience is worth it. I love the unlimited fresh veggies plates that come with the food. Each plate of noodles is $3.00
Loved their baked fish. Grilled shrimps were very good too.
The sizzling beef is so delicious, it has the taste of eating beef jerky when I was a child, and its grilled fish is a must. The salt and pepper prawns have no prawn taste at all. It's a good cook and a good taste.
I honestly have no clue why this place has a 3.9 rating. It needs to go up. Deserves at least a 4.5 - locals know it’s a solid choice, to bring people to and to eat at on a splurge day. We drove from Rosemead area to eat here because it’s the best “Beef 7 Course” in the whole area. It did not disappoint. It was the best surprise of a great meal while we were in Cali, 100% worth trying.
Huge place serving Vietnamese Bo 7 mon, 7 courses of beef, which were originally derived from French dishes. It's open for dinner only on weekdays, add lunch for Fri-Sunday.
The pace is nice, clean, spacious. Friday lunch there were only 3 other parties or about 20% occupied. Each 7 course serving is now $32 with enough food for 2 people. Baked cat fish dishes are also in the menu. Beers and wines are $5-6.
Meats cooked 7 ways are served with rice paper, lettuce, herbs, pickles, to be rolled into spring rolls and dipped in fish or anchovies sauce, which are very tasty.
Meat portions are small, but all 7 dishes were better and tastier than those served by the now-defunct Anh Hong and Pagolac:
1. Beef and shrimp salad
2. Top round hot pot
3. Top round grilled
4. Grilled ground beef in betel leaf
5. Grilled ground beef in beef fat
6. Steamed ground beef loaf
7. Rice beef soup, very rich and tasty
1 serving lunch for 2 people costed $44 before tip. It's hard to compete against various Korean BBQs and hot pots in OC serving lunch for $22 and dinner $29 with AYCE rib eye, brisket, ribs.
Vietnamese Bo 7 Mon is more like a long, slow, formal dinner, where clients have to roll their own spring rolls, which can be messy. It has not caught on with a large clientele base in mainstream So Cal, likely due to price points, limited menu, beef being the only main ingredients, and the messy work required to cook and eat it. Major venues in So Cal struggled for decades and went out of business.
This location used to be Hong An, taken over by Thien An, now returned to the original owner, who operates another Thien An in Rosemead. The 2 Thien Ans on Harbor and Bolsa are original, now operated by 2 cousins. Does not look like they are doing booming business.
There may be a market for selling each dish as a single serving, for pick up with lower overhead, in the range of $7-12.
We are unlikely to come back.
Quite possibly my favorite restaurant of all time. Just show my pictures and order that! Everything is seasoned to perfection and the food quality is unmatched. Beef lover's dream come true.
We are not Vietnamese, so it is not in our position to comment on the authenticity of the food. This review will focus on the flavor - IT IS SO GOOD!
We ordered one seven-course set, one order of marinated catfish (for grill), and one order of beef roll (small order). My favorite is the grilled beef slices (part of the set) and the catfish. I ate the meat directly and also tried to make rolls. The mixed herb, especially mint, brought the flavor to the next level.
A meal for two cost about $80, not cheap but the experience is totally worth it.
