" Com Tam Thanh has a wonderful selection of dishes! I had the grilled chicken salad and it was fresh and flavorful! The dressing was on point, and I appreciated the generous portion size. It's a great place to grab a quick bite; I enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere. Staff was friendly enough, but not overly attentive. Overall, a solid experience and I hope to come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was hopeful about Com Tam Thanh after many positive mentions, but my experience was less than stellar. The pho was decent but far from the best I’ve ever had, and I was really craving a flavorful broth. The service staff seemed a bit overwhelmed and took longer than expected to check in on us. The atmosphere could be improved with better decor and overall cleanliness. It’s a good neighborhood spot but perhaps not a destination restaurant. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Com Tam Thanh by accident and it’s been a delightful find! The shrimp rice paper rolls are delightful and refreshing. My friends ordered the pho and were very pleased with the flavors. The service was slightly delayed, likely due to the lunch crowd, but the food came out hot and fresh. I'm excited to return to try more dishes from this hidden gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience at Com Tam Thanh. The pho was bland and didn't have the depth I was hoping for. The decor felt dated and the place was crowded. I had trouble getting the attentiveness of the staff, which added to my frustration. Despite the several good reviews, it didn't live up to my expectations. I appreciate the local spot trying to bring Vietnamese fare, but I think I'll try somewhere else next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is the perfect spot for a quick, delicious lunch! The bun thit nuong is vibrant with flavor, and the grilled meats are so well done. The prices are very fair for the portions provided; I left completely full. However, I’d love to see the atmosphere enhanced with some art or plants, as it can feel a bit bland. Still, the food made up for it. If you want tasty Vietnamese food on the go, Com Tam Thanh is worth checking out! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has been my go-to for Vietnamese comfort food. The broken rice dishes are fantastic and bursting with flavors. Each time I visit, I am impressed by the freshness of the ingredients. The only downside is that the service can be hit or miss – sometimes you get quick service, and other times you wait a while. Still, I enjoy every meal I've had here and often recommend it to friends. It's a great spot for a casual meal without breaking the bank. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went for lunch with a friend and ordered the seafood pho. It was excellent with various toppings, including fresh shrimp and scallops swimming in a clear, fragrant broth. The restaurant has a very casual vibe which I appreciated. My only complaint was that it took a while for our order to arrive. It was worth the wait though, and I would love to go back soon to try something else on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)
