This is one of my go-to spots in the Westminster area. I appreciate that all orders include complimentary herbal iced tea and that the restaurant is open until late. I would stop in a lot more often if I lived closer. Luc Dinh Ky offers a fairly extensive menu which I have sampled many items off of, but the House Special Rice Noodles are by far my fave! I enjoy the wide rice noodles combined in a soup with egg, shrimp, chicken, pork, fish cake, veggies and other ingredients which further enhance the flavor. The Hainan Chicken is a solid choice too and this restaurant differentiates itself by offering a grilled rice option. Good food at reasonable prices at almost any hour of the day...what more can you ask for?

Luc Dinh Ky is a childhood spot of mine that I used to eat at more often than I do now. I recently decided to pay them a visit after work and was instantly transported back to my childhood. I recognize a few of the same ladies that are serving tables and it's just nice to see that they're still there working hard. It's still pretty busy at night since they close at midnight, but despite the busy dining room, I've still gotten my takeout order in a reasonable amount of time. My go to is the salmon with crispy rice of course. The sauce is magical and I'm sure pumped with MSG because I salivate just thinking about it. It's a great dish even with the price increase. The prices have surely increased but I'd say that it's still worth it. You even still get free nuoc mat! It's such a refreshing drink so I'll have to buy one of the big bottles to chug at home... I recently decided to try the bo luc lac for the first time and it was just okay. I like that it's just beef and onions, but wasn't all that enthused by their version of the sauce. I'll just stick to the salmon : Overall, I'm glad to still be able to enjoy a childhood classic restaurant of mine. I was also surprised to learn that i was able to pay with card! Definitely a lot more convenient since I don't always have cash on me.

Despite COVID and inflation, LDK still provides the same taste, ingredients and portions over the years. I know places that have increased prices, cut back portions and switched to lower quality ingredients. LDK will always be my go-to if I need to find a quick place to eat or grab to-go.

I haven't been here for awhile, but it has changed since my last review. Food wasn't as good and quantity definitely lower with prices being higher. Maybe the time I went was a difference and the fact I ordered for pickup instead of eating in.

I love this place! They sometimes get busy but it's worth the wait! The salmon is so good. I eat here all the time!
