Rice Paper - Taste of Vietnam

My reviews comes in 3 part: food, service, and ambiance. My overall review for this place is 1/10. Pricey for food quality, service is none, and nothing to call for ambiance. I would not recommend to my worse enemy...or should I. Food: Order the Bun Bo Hue, Fried rice, grilled pork & rice, and Bun Rieu. Overall, food was standard and is no different from any other restaurants near by or Vietnamese restaurants that serve the same dishes. The sauce that came with the food was a bit watered down catering to American taste than going for authentic Vietnamese flavors. The amount of meat to each dish is lacking for the price they charge. The veggies that come with each dish is lacking as well. So if you are looking for flavor, quantity, or quality to the price, then look else where because yo

The food was so good. Very fresh, seasoned well. Prices are a little above average but this is above average food. Service was very warm and friendly. Great for a quick casual bite or a date. Parking in Eden Center is an adventure but the secret is to look for spots at the grocery store end or behind the building. Will definitely visit again.

This was our third time coming here since moving to the area. The first two times were extremely busy with long lines, so we didn’t get a chance to eat. Today we came early to finally try it. The food wasn’t amazing, but it wasn’t bad either. Prices are slightly higher than other places. The restaurant has a modern look, which is different from typical Vietnamese restaurants. Last year I lived in Houston and had the chance to try many Vietnamese restaurants within the local community—much more affordable and incredibly flavorful. I’ve visited Eden multiple times hoping to find something comparable, but so far I haven’t found a place that stands out the same way. Just a note: this restaurant does not offer complimentary water.

Posting this sort of on behalf of my girlfriend, who grew up on Vietnamese food - this place is one of the most authentic places I’ve gone to, and they do it well. The food was amazing, portions were great, and it was all reasonably priced. I find it odd that they don’t serve you water though.

I’d give this spot about 3–4 stars overall. The service was absolutely 5 stars the staff were super friendly, welcoming, and very attentive. They really made us feel taken care of. But when it comes to the food, it was a bit of a letdown. The duck bamboo soup was bland, almost like flavored water, and the cá thì là (dill fish) just didn’t hit the mark. They used a very low-quality fish, I believe basa, and for the price around $24 USD it felt overpriced. Honestly, you could get a solid steak dinner for the same price with more satisfaction. Overall, it’s a nice place if you want good service and a comfortable dining experience, but in terms of authentic flavor and value, there are definitely better Vietnamese options nearby.
