"A Vietnamese restaurant that offers bánh tét and bánh chung, especially during Tết celebrations." - Serena Maria Daniels
"One of the cornerstone restaurants of Nicollet Avenue’s Eat Street corridor, Quang was founded by matriarch chef Lung Tran 30 years ago. The original Quang was a four-table bakery across the street from the present location, where Tran and her five kids sold Vietnamese pastries and food. The restaurant grew in popularity as news of Tran’s fragrant, hearty dishes traveled by word of mouth. Three decades later, the current restaurant is run by her children, and it’s now a go-to for enormous bowls of pho — aromatic and balanced, the beef sliced into delicate sheets — classic stir fry and noodle dishes like pad thai, and banh mi with red roast pork and pate. Quang’s space is casual and bustling on any weekend evening." - Eater Staff
"This Eat Street staple will be serving its encyclopedic menu of Vietnamese specialties, including pho, egg rolls, grilled meat platters, and noodle salads, with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options available. Hours are 11:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m." - Stacy Brooks, Eater Staff
"If you are looking for a hot bowl of Phở, look no further. Quang is a local favorite featuring a huge menu of Vietnamese dishes, desserts and drinks. The food is fresh, the meals are cheap, and the ambiance is super casual. It's rare to see an empty table here, and it's often bustling with servers carrying gallon-like bowls of steaming soup from kitchen-to-table with surprising agility. Don't forget to try some of the many desserts on the counter near the register or a boba tea for the road!" - Light Grey Art Lab
