Rarely have I been so excited over a new opening but after seeing Carrot & Daikon opening in Placentia I felt like a kid at Christmas in anticipation of eating here. The soft opening bringing their famous banh mi from Westminster was the gift of the holiday season! There was a photo of the Lomo Saltado on the window and despite being a fan of the crispy pork belly and grilled pork I decided to try this one and glad I did. Super meaty and flavorful. The dining area is nice, too. Spacious and comfy. Service is great. One of the negatives of the drive thru in Westminster was nowhere to sit and eat while hit n fresh so this location has the best of both worlds. Will be back often.

· $$$$ · placentia · Strict-vegan verified
Fully vegan
Editor synopsis · 0 reviews
Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I came here last night with my boyfriend. As we walked in, we saw empty of bowls pho filled with broth from previous customers (one person working) We ordered 2 number 3, pho came out with no bean sprouts because they were out and it was the fattiest bowl of pho I have ever eaten. No flavor, no pho aroma, just fat! I will come back for sandwiches and hoping they taste and are good quality as the other locations. Good luck.

I’ve always love this place but was mistreated. The cashier was taking my order and out of the blue, she cancel my order and took the order over the phone and when I called her out on it, she giggled like it was a joke. Being HANGRY, I was really mad about the situation. I spoke to the mower and just politely told her to train her staff more. But overall food always good.
