Vung Tau has the most authentic Vietnamese cuisine in the Bay area. Service has always been quick and efficient.
The egg rolls are the best, served with lettuce, mint, and basil leaves.
Although parking can be difficult, I would highly recommend Vung Tau. less

I visited Vung Tau II restaurant last Friday evening 05/08. Parking was as difficult as one should expect on any given Friday eve. Though I had made the reservation 04 hours earlier for our 7:30 PM, our table was not ready for us as we walked in at 7:29 PM. Our waiter, who spoke English quite fluently, provided us with a decent service. The menu provided a wide range of foods. It covers from a very authentic selection to Vietnamese/French dishes. We ordered three (03) dishes from each and found that the their Vietnamese/French dishes were much richer in taste then their authentic dishes. Since the menu offers 157 different dishes, I would suggest that you go with someone who has dined there before. He/she can help narrow them down. less

The food is excellent. I understand it is very authentic Vietnamese food. We went for dinner on Saturday night and found parking to be horrible. While the food was good the service was not. Our waiter barely spoke English and was not very attentive to our needs. We noticed other waiters at other tables were pretty much the same. Our table was stickey when we sat down. This actually turned out to be a blessing as it kept the placemats from sliding around. The acustics in vung Tau are like being in a stadium not a nice restaurant. It was much too loud one could hardly talk without having to yell to the person across the table. Rating on the food alone I would give this place 4 stars but the other things I mention bring it down to a less pleasurable rating of 2. less
