Food: it's one of the only restaurants around that sells bánh cuốn (rice rolls)! It was okay, certainly not the best. For one, I wish the nước chấm (sauce for rice rolls) had peppers and garlic, but it had a nice amount of sweetness. ALSO, I did like the addition of bánh chưng added a nice crunch to contrast the soft rice rolls.
Service: lady was sweet and checked on us frequently
Ambiance: looks a lil run down. But that's usually a green flag for viet restaurants Ifykyk.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Diane N.Towson, MD559882Jan 3, 2024
Com Mai is 100% a Vietnamese establishment that has the pungent smell of shrimp paste lingering at all times and the quick movements/conversation of workers bustling around. They'll not cater to you if you don't speak Vietnamese or know what you're doing. You don't come here for the customer service. Honestly, it was kind of fun.
We called the restaurant and defaulted to speaking English to ask if they were open, the response back was "I don't speak English" and then she hung up. I laughed it off and headed to the restaurant.
I do speak Vietnamese so I had that advantage and we ordered a duck salad (gơi), fresh rice noodles with pork sausage (banh ướt or cuốn), and the special broken rice platter (cỏm tấm đặc biệt).
Food was phenomenal. So fresh, so clearly homemade.
Everything that was suppose to be crisp was extra crisp and refreshing. The rice platter was grilled perfectly.
The only reason I gave 4 stars was because the pricing was actually more expensive then expected. The broken rice platter was 17$ which is fine and I'll pay for it again however, for the type of establishment it was (location, customer service, cleanliness, does not cater to anyone) I really thought the dish would be more on the 13$ range!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nov 11, 2023
We were craving for bun rieu and this place was recommended. Ample parking and we came around 2 pm on a Sat. Lunch crowd was gone and we were seated immediately by this grumpy Vietnamese lady. We got spring rolls, grilled pork vermicelli bowl and bun rieu. Food came pretty fast and good portion. The vermicelli bowl was great given meats were seasoned well. Broth in bun rieu was piping hot (which is great) but flavor wasn't that rich. They got some homemade meatballs with lots of fat that I dislike. I was given lettuce as a side which was the first. I have had bun rieu from Vegas to NYC and in Hanoi, Vietnam. First time having this crappy veggie side.
Going back to the grumpy lady, she never once smiled, greeted or said thank you. Great Vietnamese hospitality from sunny Atlanta!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Lan P.Santa Ana, CA02Apr 27, 2024

There is one staff in front and two cooks in the kitchen at the time we went, so it took a while for the food to come out. The service was okay but it was understandable because we came near the closing time. The price for each dish was almost the same as other Vietnamese restaurants. All right! The main characters: The special rice combo was decent and the BBQ pork had this smoky flavor. The plateting tho felt like something's missing. The noodle was delicious and BBQ pork was the same as with special rice combo. The fermented fish noodle is smelly in a good way. The broth was sweet and it had eggplants, shrimps, fish slices, and noodles. The noodle with a side of duck salad was best dish. The broth was clear and had a neutral taste, not too sweet nor savory. The tender, juicy pieces of duck dipping in the spicy ginger sauce was 10/10. Overally, definitely try this place out but come early. Last time we went were 8:30 PM.

Traditional asian restaurant in Duluth. Definitely my number one spot for Canh Bun and Bun Mang Vit.
Service was okay but will def come back for the food.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Aug 19, 2022
I came for the banh uot and was not disappointed. Com Mai reminds me of a family home, maybe it's the decor choices or maybe it's that the food tastes pretty homey but regardless I enjoyed it. This is what I would consider Vietnamese comfort food. I ordered the shrimp roll, tua hu Tom (shrimp paste fried and wrapped in tofu skin), banh uot, and my friend had the bo luc lac. We both agreed that the veggies was a bit much but the main entrees were delicious. The portions were fair though for the dishes we had. Com mai gets high marks for me bc it's unique in that it serves and highlights other Vietnamese dishes that is not what you'd typically get from common Vietnamese restaurants. Ample seating, there'a plenty booths and tables. I went on a Thursday evening and there was only one server but food came out quickly and service was good. Keep doing what you're doing Com Mai

I have been to this place at least 5 times in the past. The food is always so good. My favorites includes com tam dac biet-special rice plate, banh cuon-rice rolls, bun tom thit nuong-vermicelli with grilled shrimp and grilled pork, goi cuon, thit nuong cuon-grilled pork spring rolls, and bun mam-special fish vermicelli soup. This is good homestyle cooking!

My favorites includes the combination special rice plate, pork and grill shrimp vermicelli, bun mam, banh cuon plate, and chanh muoi citrus ice tea. The service is great as well. The food is traditional and Authentic; thumbs up.

Been here a few times over the years. They have pretty solid com tam dac biet (broken rice) & bun bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup)! The latter is decently spicy and flavorful and comes with lots of fresh veggies/herbs. They're short staffed at the moment (most of their workers went to Vietnam for LNY) and are primarily To Go for the next month.

I've been occasional eating here for the past 7 years and they still have the same waiter! I usually only order their rice entrées because you can mix and match the sides to whatever combination you like. They do have vermicelli or egg noodle dishes, but I personally have not tried them, since I only came here for the rice dishes. Com Mai is good at making one type of dish, and that's all they need to be good at! A great place to eat, but can be far and out of the way to get to.
