They offer real Vietnamese cuisine similar to that found on the streets of Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam at Moc Quan. They feel that the greatest chefs in Vietnam are operating one-dish makeshift stalls after spending their entire adult life learning how to make that one dish!

For the past three years, they’ve been hanging out with these street chefs and absorbing their trade secrets. They also make use of the highest-quality ingredients available. Every component in their meals is imported from Vietnam on a weekly basis, when they fly over personally to hand carry it back. To re-create the renowned Banh Mi, they even acquired a whole oven and Flour!

They’ve incorporated Vietnamese colors and culture into Moc Quan’s decor, creating a rustic atmosphere when you walk in the restaurant. All of their furnishings and decorations are hand-picked from Vietnam. As a result, some of our clients will think they’re transported back to the 1960s or 1970s.

They serve the same delicious and crazy street food that you’d get in bustling Ho Chi Minh City at Moc Quan. In essence, genuine Vietnamese street food minus the honking and a throng of motorbikes on the roads.

Moc Quan is a restaurant, coffee house, and sandwich shop all rolled into one. Come indulge yourself in genuine Vietnamese street cuisine while escaping from the past.
