Thaison 1997 reviews describe a modest dining room and order counter but emphasize friendly staff and food that is delicious and affordable, with standout items such as made to order Bahn Mi, crispy pork belly, and other BBQ meats. A family gathering mentioned whole crispy pig and boxes of duck salad Vietnamese style, with everyone enjoying the crispy pork and the fresh salad. Prices are praised as very good and portions are generous, and the seafood soup is highlighted as excellent while the crispy pork is noted as the restaurant's specialty. The peking duck is repeatedly praised for freshness and value compared with other places, and longtime diners say the place remains reliable for authentic flavors despite not having the most upscale decor. Some reviews acknowledge a recent dip in quality with smaller portions and certain dishes feeling off, leading a few to consider trying alternatives. Overall the notes describe a hidden gem with authentic flavors, friendly service, and generous servings that make it worth a visit despite variability.

I gave this establishment 5 stars for atmosphere. Truth be told, it has a humble dining room & order counter but I wouldn't want that to dissuade people from giving them a try. The owners & staff are friendly. The food is delicious & affordable. Stand outs are their made to order Bahn Mi, crispy pork belly & bbq meats.

Seafood soup is the best soup! & the special in this restaurant is CRISPY PORK!

AMAZING tasty crispy pork & roasted duck! My go-to. I've been coming here with my family for more than 20 years & keep going back. This place is well known in asian community. Small family-run business, good people with quick service. Clean, flavor, texture of meats..spot on! Thanks to the mother for her generosity. Definitely recommend

The food here was phenomenal - even better than we had anticipated! The prices were fair, & portions were very generous. We ended up taking leftovers home (they sent us with some extra sauce for good measure). I'd highly recommend the crispy pork belly - it was the best pork belly I've had in years! The Vietnamese coffee was also wonderful. You really can't go wrong with their menu!
