Cơm Tấm Thanh Restaurant

Craving a Vietnamese rice plate with pork, egg with pork, shrimp with a side of soup. Also got a fish with side of rau muon and and an ice coffee. Tasty, nice texture. Felt home cooked. Service was nice.

Music like I'm in disco room too aloud meat are smell too bad i saw server but i felt like no server and they won't accepted card only cashhh whyyyy

Music was too much loud. They served stale meat but also soup was cold. And customer service was aweful. The worst part is, they wanted to get cash and didn't want to accept card. Are they doing tax evasion? I will give one star for this.

Good food. Good price. Very clean

2 stars is for the food since it’s been our go-to place for rice plates for several years. Although service was always typically the bare minimum as with most Vietnamese restaurants, our most recent visit will be our last. It first started when we placed our rice plate orders. Both my bf and I ordered an extra sunny side up egg with our plates but yet, only my bf’s plate had an egg and mine didn’t. When I told the server, she seemed confused and just rudely shrugged her shoulders before going back to the kitchen to ask about it. We then overheard her telling the kitchen that she doesn’t remember me ordering an additional egg, which did not make sense since she was the one that took our order and I speak fluent Vietnamese. After my egg was brought out, I was still polite and didn’t make a fuss about it as I know mistakes happen when it’s busy. What really set us off was after we already paid for our meals and left the tip on the table, we went to the restroom and came back out to catch the same server complain to another server that we only left $15 on the table with a stank face. $15 on a $40 tab (~37%) is too low for you doing the bare minimum (taking our order, bringing food out, no refills, no apology for forgetting items)?! I’m honestly more shocked that she had the audacity to make these comments while we were still in the restaurant like she couldn’t at least wait until we left LOL. My bf said I should’ve went back in there and take the money back but I’m not one to cause a scene over a couple bucks. They’re definitely going to lose so many customers if that girl continues to work there.

Great food good service only complaint is the cleanliness of the place.

Đồ ăn cuối ngày hơi thiu nha. Bì cho cơm tấm bị thiu và rất nhiều bột ngọt, cháo vịt thiu, bún cũng sắp thiu ăn về mình bị ải chỉa. Trời ơi cú tui cú tui trời ơi. Tiệm chỉ nhận tiền mặt, rất bất tiện. Mặc dù giá có vẻ rẻ hơn xíu nhưng phần ăn chỉ bằng 2/3 tiệm khác. Too much MSG. The pork skin for com tam and the duck porridge already went bad. The vermicelli wasn’t fresh either. Smaller portion sizes compared to ones from other Vietnamese restaurants in San Jose. And especially, CASH ONLY! I do not support this practice of tax evasion.

Great food. Friendly staff. The owner came great us. Excellent experience.
