Rumor had it that there was a ridiculously amazing vegan Vietnamese restaurant in Reseda. Now, I am not a vegan, but I have a strange love for all fake meats. If it's tempeh-ed, tofu-ed, or seitan-ed, I am 100% down to try it.
So, after seeing all the amazing reviews of Vinh Loi Tofu from the LA foodie bloggers, I knew I had to try it out. My partner in crime and I ventured out to Reseda during prime time rush hour (yeah, that's how I roll) to find this fabled house of animal-friendly amazingness. When we entered the shop, the store's owner, Kevin, was a total jokester and helped us order off the menu. When asked what was good, he replied, "Nothing's good. It's EXCELLENT!" We ended up with the house special soup, mock duck curry udon noodles and a mock BBQ duck banh mi. HOLY. CRAP. It was phenomenal.
Being Vietnamese, having gone to Vietnam and eaten lots and lots of Vietnamese food, I must say that this was, hands down, my favorite Vietnamese dining experience. Maybe it was the fact that I could devour the food on a guilt-free conscience (I just can't bring myself to eat real duck, but tofu duck? Bring it on), but more so, it was the freshness and boldness of the flavors in each dish. The soup's spiciness is not for the meek, as every single sinus cavity will clear itself after coming face to face with the house special.
Our meal was so amazing that I had to order a tofu banh mi to go. I felt very torn between screaming my love for Vinh Loi Tofu to anyone who would listen and keeping this lovely jewel in the valley to myself. But, here I am, blabbing my mouth. Don't say I never did nothin' for the people.
Pros: Flavorful, authentic and vegan Vietnamese dishes

This is the greatest repair shop I have ever visited, the mechanics are thourough and precise. They treat you like a person instead of a number and are very friendly. I am satisfied with the service everytime I need something on my car fixed. I would recommend this shop to anybody who values a great mechanic, friendly service all at a great price.

One day my car broke down, so I called AAA and they had me towed over to Reseda Automotive. They were super friendly and were very willing to help. They explained and showed me what happened to my car and even showed me the old parts. They cover their work for 24k miles or 2 years and even have a rent-a-car on site! From now on I go there for everything from smogs to AC to head gaskets? Check them out!

Love this Subway above others - super friendly and quick staff. They know me by name...just introduce yourself and they'll be calling yours out right when you walk through the door. Super sweet! Less expensive than others (there is one on the other side of White Oak which is more pricey). Only cons, parking. Other than that - excellent!
Food: My friend ALWAYS orders the meatball sub, with parm cheese, and he toasts it (he prefers white bread with it). I order either the tuna with provolone melted on top (tuna melt!!!), guacamole also (only an additional seventy cents? So worth it!). If you are looking for healthy bread choices the Honey Oat has the most fiber.
My other favorite is the teriaki chicken sandwich hott...on honey oat. Little bit of sauce, lettuce, tomato...they'll make it the way YOU want it!
Also, if you are looking for serving control, I recommend ordering a KIDS size sandwich and water bottle. Order the whole wheat bread also.
P.S. Quiznos sandwiches are still better tasting, however this is alot cheaper!!!
Pros: Excellent service, value, clean, and food is good (not a Quiznos)
Cons: parking is limited
