La Xanh Restaurant

The best place in Dallas to go for Banh Xeo! They accept cash and credit cards here (even Amex!). The only other menu item to get here is Bun Cha Ca (Fried Fish Cake Noodle Soup). Everything else are fillers and mediocre.

Edit: Apparently, they are not suppose to take Amex. The cashier there now refuses to run the card during this last visit. Very inconvenient for everyone if they want to save money on credit card fees.

The banh xeo and pandan waffles are off the charts. I can eat my weight of those two foods. My family would only order banh xeo for dinner. They’re crispy, huge, crunchy, and delicious. The banh xeo is filled with pork, shrimp, and bean sprouts. There is so much flavor. You get a big plate of lettuce, different mints, and nuoc cham with each order. Making a banh xeo/lettuce/herb wrap and dipping it in nuoc cham is delicious. My family and I also like to top off dinner with their fresh pandan waffles. They’re chewy, fragrant, and yummy.

Canh bun and bun oc here is TOO GOOD. Make sure to try those! Banh xeo is alright, not life changing but satisfies the crave. Flan and yogurt are on point too. However the rice selection is low so your non Viet friends might have trouble finding something to eat. Mom and pop noodle shops taste the best!

Their rice with grilled pork is the best I've ever had, although it takes quite a bit of time to be made.
