Vinh Long Food To Go 4575 El Cajon Boulevard, San Diego, CA 92115

"Don't come here in the early morning around 8 am when there is a elderly man and older woman working here. They literally ripped us off $5 for a 2 item combo. That was all we got and so we had to put 1 item back after we realized that they wanted to overcharge us. Total was going to be $18 for a little food! The old man was coughing without closing his mouth and he didn't understand "English" until he gave us the total at the end speaking in English! The lady didn't even want to help us until she demanded the total. The amount of food he gave us was so small as well for the price. As soon as he knew my husband didn't speak Viet, he took the combo container back and got individual container boxes for each item we wanted instead to get more money from us. And he kept grabbing the wrong foods that we didn't even ask for so my husband who is Asian too kept telling him "no" and pointing his fingers to sign to him what we actually wanted. It took so long to get the correct items. This place is dirty and shady and a disgrace to other Asians for ripping others off. I really wanted to support a small business but had a bad experience here so I will never return. Update: I had a stomachache for 2 days after eating their food so I wouldn't be surprised if they are serving old food. Or the place is unsanitary. The prices displayed are too good to be true."

"The place was a beacon in the night, the only late night pho available for miles. Our gratitude is endless, much like the noodles in the soup bowl we were served. Kind and help staff, warm hearts, warm dumplings. Crab soup is a score! Slam dunk in the tum."

"Variety of delicious food. I go for breakfast and dinner take outs. We had them catered big orders of egg rolls, stir fried rice, stir fried noodles for our parties many time. My family ordered also for parties."

"You know those hidden gems restaurants you'll only find if you're in luck? Well, this is definitely one. We decided to give this one a try and feel very grateful we did We always love finding authentic food that's family/locally owned. We tried about eight different dishes, dessert, and the Vietnamese coffee which came out to around $80. Every dish was delicious and reminded us of the quality of food we had in Vietnam -- well cooked with fresh ingredients. The chef here really deserves some recognition, we will be back."

"Unkept but the food is good and the owner is friendly. Try their Vietnamese coffee. It's super tasty!"
