Review Summary

Chez Lien is widely celebrated for its delicious and authentic Vietnamese cuisine, featuring standout dishes like General Tao chicken, curry beef, spring rolls, and various traditional soups. Guests consistently praise the excellent, friendly service and the welcoming atmosphere, noting that the restaurant is a fantastic value for the price. As an 'apportez votre vin' establishment, it remains a favorite for many diners, though visitors should be aware that credit cards are not accepted and street parking may be necessary during busy periods. Despite minor comments regarding the temperature on warmer days or limited onsite parking, the overall consensus is that this long-standing family restaurant provides a high-quality, reliable, and enjoyable dining experience.

Bonne nourriture vietnamienne, fine cuisine.
La soupe est la meilleure toujours fraîche.
Les prix sont raisonnables & le service bien courtois (comparé à d'autre « Lien »)
Ils ne prennent pas de cartes de crédits faut faire attention à cela, à part ça c'est bon.
Je recommande

The menu has a great variety of traditional dishes. I ordered the Ph? ??c bi?t (Special Beef Noodle Soup), & it was one of the best I've had outside of Vietnam. The ambiance of the restaurant is cozy & welcoming, with beautiful Vietnamese-inspired decor. The staff was friendly, attentive, & happy to recommend dishes for first-time visitors.

If you're looking for an authentic Vietnamese dining experience with delicious food & great service,

The service was amazing! They had English menus & the wait staff really went out of their way to make us feel welcome & explained everything on the menu. They even threw in a free spring roll which was so generous & thoughtful of them. The appetizer which was the beef wrapped in leaves was very unique & unlike anything I've tried before. I would get it again! The grilled meats were tasty too. I liked the chicken & the beef. They tasted like your typical Vietnamese meats. The soup was interesting because of the vegetables but it had good amount of depth! I enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend coming here for your Vietnamese cravings! Even as a tourist I appreciated the atmosphere & the warm welcome we received. Love the couple from Vancouver :3
