Golden Flower Veggie

They have a really good com tam plate here! I also got the bot chien, which was good if that's your thing. The market inside is nice for to-go options and other snacks. The ladies working there are really sweet and helpful.

This is a great place for vegetarians since everything on the menu is vegetarian friendly. Since this is a Vietnamese establishment, everything they offer is a vegetarian version of common Vietnamese dishes such as Bun Bo Hue, Phoenix, Vermicelli, etc. Everything we ordered was delicious, but I think the Hu Tieu (noodle soup) was a bit bland. I recommend the following dishes: #31. Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio ($13.95), #9. Goi Mit - jackfruit/lotus salad ($14.95), and #10. Mi Xao Gion ($14.95). Service was great and the restaurant is spacious. The parking lot is a bit small, but if you come early, there will be no problem.

Finally had a chance to come to this place...Parking lot is really small so I never thought about coming here but it is around the corner almost from where i go every month so I walked there from the parking lot where Da Vien is at.... What i liked most is unlike many Vegan or Vegetarian places they don't over salt their foods to make up for lost flavors.... Fresh and refreshing.... Nice staff and let me sit even though my friend wasn't there yet.... My friend got the Duck Noodle Soup...which she enjoyed. I got the Bun Bi Cha Gio....which is a dry noodle dish which you normally would pour fish sauce over...I'm not sure what the vegetarian sauce is made of but it was good... They have a counter area with display of things to go which I plan to get some the next time I stop by.

Of course there are re numerous options to eat out in garden grove but we wanted leaning something towards vegetarian and we found a good spot. Fortunately we were all hungry and were the only ones when we came it. The inside is spacious and imagine on busier days or busier time of the day it probably get a lot of people coming in and out. Each of us ordered our plates and they came out pretty quick which was a good thing since we all were hungry. Everything was tasteful, two soup bowls and I got a flat rice noodles dish. Told them all veggies but they gave me combo. Guess they wanted that extra dollar but it's fine because it was good regardless. I forgot which bowl that they ordered but one of them was slightly bland. Either way the food was good, the place was nice, can't imagine how parking is when it gets busy. Service was the type of service you get when you are in that area if you know what I mean. So don't think too much of that. Good enough I guess you can say. Do recommend it though and even with so many options out there in GG I would still go back again.

Golden Flower Vegetarian Restaurant came highly recommended by my cousin as one of her family favorites. On one of our larger family outings, we decided to come here to try their vegetarian interpretation of beloved traditional Vietnamese dishes. They are located on a fairly busy road, but they have their own small parking lot for customers only. If you're lucky you might find parking. Also, you can tell they cater to the local Vietnamese Buddhist community, because their menu discloses that they are able to omit onion or garlic for the super intense who believe onions and garlic are foods that excite passion. They were quickly to accommodate our large group of 10 by combining 2 tables. Please note there is an 18% service charge for parties of 6 or more. Huge family order! There were 4 Banh Xeos ($14.95/each) for the table to share, Bun Bo Hue ($13.95), Bun Rieu ($13.95), 2 Bun Thit Cha Gio ($13.95), Com Bo Luc Lac ($14.95), Bun Tofu Xao Xa ($14.95), Pho ($13.95), and my Banh Canh ($13.95). For drinks, there were mostly waters ($0.50/each NOT FREE), 2 Sua Dau Nanh ($3.00/each), Dau Xanh La Dua ($5.00) and 3 including one for me Rau Ma ($5.00/each). They forgot my banh canh with the original order, so they had to ask the kitchen to rush it. I munched on some of the shared banh xeos. The exterior was not as crispy as I liked and the filling was mainly bean sprouts. I'm not a fan of bean sprouts so I was removing most of the filling. When my food arrived it was less than impressive. If you are not familiar with banh canh it is a Vietnamese udon noodle made with tapioca so it has a slippery slurpiness. The bowl had imitation proteins, tofu, mushrooms carrots, broccoli and onions. The broth was not as flavorful as other vegetarian restaurants I have been to. I really did not like the imitation proteins. The tofu, mushrooms and onions were okay. I ate the broccoli to be healthy. My aunt was so funny she kept telling me she can make every dish better. It's true though. She really does. The meal was edible but it would be hard for me to come back when there are better vegetarian options out there.
