    We've been here do so many years. Love it so much! The food was always great and the service was amazing. When we don't know what to eat, just come to Mili and they will feed us great!

    You will have to point at the pictures and give them the numbers. English is not their first language, but it may be their last. They worked very hard to keep you happy.

    Mi Li has definitely been a bit if a surprise Vietnamese restaurant. Coming from LA and spending quite a but of time out in Westminster, I've been very spoiled by Viet food. Mi Li definitely is a good reminder of what I have back home. The restaurant is casual and unassuming but staff is always very pleasant and patient. You'll hear a mix of Viet and Cantonese for those familiar with either language. Food wise, I've enjoyed the pho and beef stew here. Pho broth is flavorful and beef parts are cooked well to go along with it. The star for me here has been the banh mi. The bread is so perfectly crisp and light, the pate flavorful, the herbs and daikon/carrot fresh and bright. It def rivals my favorite banh mi spot back in LA. I'd highly recommend anyone to come out here to get a Viet fix. Or if Viet food is new to you, try a banh mi and some pho, it'll be great for the soul and stomach!

    I'm happy I got to try Mi Li Cafe because their pho lived up to the hype. I got the pho with cooked beef and it came with a good amount of meat. The broth had a deep flavor to it and had lots of onions and scallions. I would definitely ask for more cilantro if you like it. I also added some spicy pepper sauce which added a kick. The grilled pork bahn mi was also very tasty with marinated pork and fresh veggies. The size is not that big but taste wise it was good. Their iced French coffee was really refreshing! It has a strong coffee flavor and I appreciated how it wasn't too sweet. The restaurant itself was bigger than I thought and had a decent amount of seating, which filled up quickly. Luckily they were able to accommodate our group although service did feel a bit rushed because they were busy. The only other downside to the experience was that there was a strand hair in two of our dishes, but they did apologize for it. I don't believe it's a regular occurrence.
