HANOI KITCHEN VIETNAMESE RESTAURANT

Nestled at 400 Auto Center Dr in Claremont, HANOI KITCHEN VIETNAMESE RESTAURANT delivers an authentic and vibrant Vietnamese dining experience that locals rave about. Specializing in Vietnamese classics with a particular emphasis on comforting, soul-warming Pho, this eatery masterfully balances traditional flavors with a welcoming, lively atmosphere.

From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by colorful murals depicting old Hanoi and tasteful, fresh flower arrangements that add an inviting charm to the space. The ambiance is unexpectedly energetic—as one reviewer described, a “light show through the glass doors” and vibrant dance music instantly set a lively, fun mood that perfectly complements the food's passionate flavors.

Pho enthusiasts will find themselves immersed in a menu bursting with variety and authenticity. The signature Fresh Rice Noodles in Broth are the star here, particularly the classic chicken and beef pho options, which customers say boast a rich, clear broth layered with fragrant fresh herbs that are generous and true to traditional Vietnamese fare. Vegetarian diners can delight in the Pho Chay, a thoughtfully crafted vegetarian pho that does not sacrifice depth or complexity.

Beyond pho, highlight dishes that keep patrons coming back include crispy Shrimp Tempura, delicate Shrimp Spring Rolls, and the ever-popular Banh Mi sandwich, each showcasing fresh ingredients and strong, balanced seasoning. For those craving more hearty options, the stir-fried selections like Beef with Udon Noodle and Stir-Fried Egg Noodles deliver satisfying textures and bold flavors that elevate classic Vietnamese recipes. Accompany your meal with beverages such as floral and soothing Jasmine Tea or the sweetly rich Thai Iced Tea, which perfectly cut through the savory complexity of the dishes.

The side orders add even more dimension to the meal — from crunchy, fresh Mixed Vegetables Rau Luoc to tender cuts like Fillet Mignon or flavorful Beef Tendon — allowing guests to customize their dining experience with satisfying extras. And for anyone in need of a comforting pick-me-up, the broth’s healing quality is highlighted by a heartfelt review of a customer who found relief and nourishment when feeling unwell, underscoring the restaurant’s dedication to authentic, gut-friendly cuisine.

Staff here are recognized for their attentiveness and warmth, amplifying the overall experience with friendly, efficient service. Prices remain remarkably reasonable considering the generosity of portions and the freshness of every ingredient.
