Quán Mii Restaurant — Restaurant in Fountain Valley

We were craving bánh bèo! When we crave bánh bèo and have to go out to eat them, that means we're lazy! It doesn't mean we can do a better job than the store we're going to.

Ordered 3 different kinds (from different regions: N, C, & S VN) to share, but they lacked flavor, and the topping (nhân) was extremely skimpy.

Died shrimp was used instead of the fresh one, 2 out of the 3 didn't have mung beans. There were more fried/dried/sautéed onions than shrimp, and they didn't even have pork rinds or fat (tóp mỡ).

We suppose different regions called for different ingredients, which is okay as long as the 1 main ingredient: shrimps are prepared in an excellent way to satisfy your craving. Sadly, in this case, zero flavors were found. The fish sauce was so watered down that a bit of chili pepper was all that you can taste. Anyone who doesn't make good bánh bèo knows the dipping (fish) sauce would save you. Again, it wasn't the case!

Other restaurants charge 1/3 less than this place, we don't mind paying the higher price for good bánh bèo, but we were disappointed, they weren't good at all.

We hope the comment about "drinks" below would humor you. For 1 slice of lemon in a cup of water entitled this store charges you $1.95 and calling it "a drink" is a bit odd to us. Since we were charged for water and a slice of lemon, we asked for a "refill" just to see how would they handle it. As expected, more water was poured into the same cup without an additional slice of lemon. The $2.95 Coke "drink" was served with a 12oz Coke can and a disposable cup of ice, which means "no refill". We got the message loud and clear! Lol.

Good old traditional Vietnamese food made bad just spoiled our day,...

Disappointing Experience at Quan Mii Due to Inconsistent Closing Practices

My wife and I have been regular patrons of Quan Mii, consistently enjoying the food. However, our visit on 10/09/2025 left us deeply disappointed and frustrated. We arrived at 7:55 PM, expecting a pleasant dining experience, as the restaurant’s posted hours clearly state they are open from 11 AM to 9 PM. The “Open” sign was still illuminated, reinforcing our expectation that we could be seated.

To our surprise, the servers informed us that the kitchen was “closing early” and refused to seat us. This was particularly confusing given that the posted operating hours indicated the restaurant was open for another hour. If the management has decided to close the kitchen earlier than the advertised 9 PM, I strongly recommend updating the posted hours to reflect this policy or clearly displaying a sign indicating the last seating time. Transparency in operating hours is essential to avoid misleading customers and causing inconvenience.

If this decision was made independently by the staff, I urge the owner to investigate this matter, as it reflects poorly on the restaurant’s commitment to customer. I hope Quan Mii takes this feedback seriously and implements clearer communication regarding their operating hours to prevent future...

7/28/2021 Came here on the last day of our Cali trip. We’ve been here the year before with family recommendations and daddy loves this place. I kinda forgot about this place because Cali has so many restaurants. I come across this restaurant again bc I was craving bánh xèo which is Vietnamese crepes and this restaurant looks amazing and the decor brings some memories back therefore we gave this place a try. Can I just say this was one of the very few choices that I’ve made right in my life. The food was amazing!! Service was impeccable and the interior was clean and minimal. I do enjoy an easy looking not to crowded with extraordinary stuff when it comes to restaurant. Daddy got Vietnamese coffee that has so so much flavor; I personally don’t like coffee and this was strong 😞, sis got Thai tea and it was really good.. not too sweet and I got a fresh coconut which was delicious… my only complaint was the coconut was an aged one that’s why the pulp was hard. For starter we got bánh bèo chén Hue style and it was good and for our dinner we got 2 crepes. If you question why 2 crepes with 3 people? Trust me!!! Their crepes are huge… do come with an empty stomach bc they do give a lot and their food are so so good. Until next...
