Randomly looked up while on the way to Reno. Some really bomb broken rice. I got the number 22a which comes with the pork chop, shredded pork, egg loaf, and fried shrimp cake. The fried egg rolls were also bomb. Great service & we came around 3:30 pm there were a few people dining in. The fish sauce, I wish they would've used a higher quality sauce. It was quite fishy.

Came in a bit later than we planned (almost their closing time) and they still accommodated us (party of 14). Food came in quick and hot. There was a mix up in our order (our mistake) and they graciously made it right by giving us extra food at no charge. Place was simple and laid back so you can focus on the food and conversations.

The food here is legitimately delicious. We enjoyed the pork chop rice plate, and the shrimp cake with cane was delicious, too. I enjoyed the pho soup combination. The soup was clear, and I liked the variety of toppings. It was a hot meal to enjoy. The XL pho soup bowl was worth ordering if you plan to share. The price was decent for the meal. The restaurant was clean and got busy during the lunch rush. There was plenty of parking. We definitely will come back here again. The owner was friendly. We definitely will come back here again.

My Go-To Spot for Authentic Vietnamese Food! I've been coming to Com Tam Dat Thanh for the past four years, and it never disappoints! If you're looking for authentic, delicious, and generously portioned Vietnamese food, this is the place to be. Their com tam (broken rice) plates are the best in Sacramento--the BBQ pork is always tender and flavorful, the shrimp cake is perfectly fried, and the pickled veggies add the perfect balance of freshness. Every dish is well-seasoned, cooked to perfection, and reminds me of a true home-cooked meal. Service is fast and friendly, and the portions are huge for the price. Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, the quality is always consistent. This has been my favorite spot for years, and I'll keep coming back! Highly recommend to anyone who loves great Vietnamese food!

This is possibly the best Com Tam / rice plate spot in town. They have a variety of vietnamese food that are all solid with big portions and all the sides you can think of. The main event here are the 7 special rice plates that are fully loaded. You can pick different proteins but my go to is anything bbq'd. They give you plenty of rice so you have some all the way to the last bite. Each of these plates comes with a side of veggies, fried shrimp cake, shredded pork skin, egg cake, bbq shrimp and grilled shrimp meat on a sugar cane. Each of these items is cooked well and flavorful and everything adds something different to the meal that ends up being a feast. Plates everywhere are getting smaller but this place has stayed the same for years and you will not be disappointed.

Tried a new place for lunch with colleagues. It was my first time, and I couldn't decide between the pho or a rice plate. Ended up ordering pho #58, and it did not disappoint! The broth was clear and packed with rich flavors, just what you'd want in a comforting authentic bowl of pho. The service was clean and quick, perfect for a lunch break. The rice plate looked fantastic too, so I'll definitely be back to try that next time!

You can tell the majority of their customers are Vietnamese since I could tell they were a bit wary of us, the non-Vietnamese speaking people. After the initial shock on their end, they were very friendly and helpful. We shared an order of Egg Rolls with side of vermicelli and vegetables ("D" on the menu) and i ordered the Rice Vermicelli with BBQ Pork and BBQ Shrimp (#35). Food was great and the portions are large. I had leftovers. The amount of veggies served with the Egg Rolls was impressive and the appetizer could've easily been eaten as meal due to the amount of noodles and veggies served alongside it. I will be adding Com Tam Dat Thanh to my short list of restaurants that I'd visit on a regular basis!

We wanted to eat some Viet food when we heard Elk Grove had some. Then we researched yelp to find some decent eats and how was this spot? Let's talk about it. Negatives: -ambiance, it was very empty for lunch hour, but it was a Monday so I can't be too critical. Positives: -taste, the taste was great their fried shrimp tofu was very good. It reminded me of the first time I had it as a child. Extra crispy, shrimpy, and perfectly seasoned. Shrimp tofu is the only reason why I eat com tam. If you don't have it, then I'm not even gonna call you a com tam spot. The pork was decent and the grilled shrimp was very tasty. -portions, the portions to price ratio was excellent. Me and my wife shared a single plate and we barely finished it. 20 dollars for two people is excellent especially in this crazy economy. Overall 5/5

This place hit the SPOT for the fat hangover we had. Upon arrival, you can tell this is a mom-and-pop shop and I was aiming for that. In my opinion, mom-and-pop Pho establishments will always win my heart over modernized Pho restaurants. Our staycation in Sacramento also contained cold rainy weather, so the piping hot pho helped keep us warm. Summary: Food: 9/10 Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 8/10 Parking: 10/10 FOOD: 9/10 I ordered the fatty brisket and rare steak pho. I appreciate how they do NOT skimp on the meat out here. I had a pile of fatty brisket and rare steak on top of my noodles. The broth was piping hot which was very much needed for my rare slices of steak. I have been traumatized from a previous pho spot not having piping hot broth for the rare steak. Com Tam Dat Thanh did not disappoint. The eggrolls were fried to perfection and they assortment of vegetables they provided for us to wrap the eggrolls were clean and so green. I also loved how there were SO many sauces provided on the table. SERVICE: 10/10 The staff here are so kind and sweet. When we were served our food, I found it so adorable how the lady got us cultured by showing us what the different sauces were for and which sauces paired best with certain dishes. AMBIANCE: 8/10 The restaurant was very spacious with a lot of seating. The restaurant was a bit dingy but there was something very homey about it which I loved. PARKING: 10/10 This restaurant is located inside a plaza so there is an ample amount of parking.
