The pork-belly banh mi & tofu banh mi are lunchtime staples. Spicy basil tofu rice plate & the lemongrass chicken are my family’s favorite dinnertime selection. Vegan egg rolls & tofu vermicelli are lighter options that we enjoy as well.The quality of ingredients is top tier for the Inland Empire! Truly authentic Vietnamese flavors are served here. I think the banh mi is the star of the menu; the baguette is soft, crispy, and flaky as an authentic banh mi should be. Dine-in is quick, and delivery transfers well. I would highly recommend Lantern to everyone.
Food was clean and tasty. Presentation of food was good and the restaurant was well maintained and clean. Service was friendly and overall experience was good. Price is a bit on the higher side but it is in Haven City Market which tends to hike up the price a but. Porions were adequate. 8/10.
I went to Haven City and tried the Lantern Vietnamese Restaurant. They had a few vegan options that looked good on the menu and were really tasty when I tried them.I recommend the Vegan Pho and their fried rice with tofu. My order got mixed with another order for the rice tofu dish but it was corrected quickly.Their use of spicy is at a good level where you can add more if needed. The heat level for the soup was lower than other pho dishes that I’ve tried but it was good for me in the sense that I didn’t need anything in the bowl fully cooked since it was vegan. The veggies and tofu were hot enough and I could enjoy the meal faster rather than waiting for it to cool off.They also have traditional meat dishes for others in your group. Enjoy.
Surprisingly good pho, even when compared to some of the already excellent options in the area. Prices are about ok par with the rest of the restaurants in here.
The pork belly Bahn Mi was SO GOOD, my fav thing out of all of the restaurants in this place
Took an elderly couple to lunch and they wanted to treat us, unfortunately the people that worked had no patience for them, they were very rude and I had to hold my tongue because I didn’t want anyone embarrassed. Soup was not hot enough and so I requested for extra soup for the 80 something couple. They charged them an extra $4.95 for this broth….just broth no meat or anything. Our bill came up almost $100.00….Food was not even that great…will never go back here… a lot more Vietnamese restaurants in the area with better food and attitude…
The slightly salted peanut sauce drizzled on the bbq stick or salad made the dish I had awesome
I’m staying at a hotel on business and ordered from here and had it delivered. No spoon or any flatware came with my food. The broth was good but I got 2 tiny basil leafs that weren’t even fresh. Basil is one of my favorite parts of this meal. Just disappointed. Eating pho with your fingers is not fun
High price with small quantity
Pho Special was awesome! Delicious, full of flavor, not greasy like some places are, the meat is so tender, great price. I highly recommend
