I don’t come down to this area often since it’s been a bit sketchy, but when I do, I usually stop by Quang for a meal. Their food and drinks are great, and they come out fast. Everything was great today, though there was a small incident; a waitress accidentally gave us the wrong receipt. Luckily, I double-checked before we left and realized we had paid for another table’s bill. I spoke with the waitress and got it resolved. So, folks, always check your receipt before paying!”
In my Vietnamese's opinion, this is the best Vietnamese restaurant in the Twin Cities area (and might be for Minnesota). The food is authentic. The portion is good for me, I don't like huge portions. You must try the Pho, Rice Platter, and Bun Bo Hue. The space and service feel modern. Plenty of parking space. The go-to and comfort place for my family.
Great service! Great vegan options and really great prices. The atmosphere is casual but clean. Service is fast and portions are generous.
Enjoyed our food! My Vietnamese friends said their soups were good and the restaurant is very pleasant to sit in. The cold noodle bowl vermicelli was cut up a little small but otherwise tasted good. Service is not super attentive which was fine with us! Parking lot next door is convenient. We’d go back and even bring guests if they wanted Thai!
This is a comfortable place. The service was fast and helpful. The food was fantastic. I will absolutely be going back.
Ordered the Lychee Green Tea with the Rice Crepe weekend special. Have never tried a rice crepe before but it was delicious! Flavorful sauce and generous portion. When I ordered this initially they told me it would take an hour to make. But after placing my order for something different they came back and said they could make it faster. Very accommodating and great communication. Definitely saving this spot to visit again!
Quang is my favorite Vietnamese spot in Minneapolis, hands down. I always order the same two things (#511 and #412) and they never disappoint. The spicy broth of the 511 is so comforting (especially in winter), and the 412 has that perfect wok-kissed flavor I love in Pad Thai. Add a strawberry boba on the side and life is good. The restaurant is usually understaffed, so the servers are literally running around, which means service can be a bit slow sometimes. Personally, I don’t mind it at all, the food is worth it, but if fast or attentive service is a big deal for you, this might not be your place.
