The food and service is always good. I'm surprise this place doesn't have a line out the door. The calamari is to die for. They also have a great lunch specials.

A late night stop through Oakland resulted in us looking for a place still open for us to eat at. We came across Mac Khai and glad we did! Friendly service and great food! We ate everything on our plates! Honey walnut shrimp was delicious!

Shaken beef is the reason we come. Everything else is just gravy. Let's talk about the beef - tender & tangy paired with the salt&pepper concoction it's divine. Shredded pork rolls are pretty bomb. Shredded pork, fresh mint and vermicelli - delicious. I want to try more but can't seem to get off of my regular order. Service is always great - they are attentive and fast.

I've been ordering from this place pretty consistently since I moved to Oakland.  Tastes just like grandma's cooking (she's Vietnamese) so it's my go-to when homesickness sets in.  The space itself is nothing to write home about, but if you care more about depth of flavor than you do wall decor, or if you're ordering pick-up/delivery, then this place will suit you just fine.   Five stars because: 1. The food has been consistently delicious 2. The servers/drivers are always very courteous and accommodating 3. The portions are quite generous 4. They're open a little later than most restaurants, and 5. Delivery is always free with a $20+ order.

Fantastic, fresh authentic vietnamese.....delivered!

Pho was delicious and it's right across the street from my apartment. Go there for anything, everything is quite good!

They are our hands down favorite In our neighborhood. A total go-to and everything we have ever ordered for delivery was delicious: Spring rolls, ramen, crab fried rice and broc beef are our favs. I wish they were open later though.. We are always trying to order around 10 and sometimes they don't answer. We still call every time! Yum yum

Had delivery for the first time.  Everything was delicious.....Vietnamese Crepe (one of my favorites and this one was really good even leftover a few days later), Fresh Spring Rolls, Beef Noodle Soup - Pho Bo was one of the best I have had.  Very flavorful and not overly salty.  They happened to get it here really quickly which I'm sure doesn't always happen. I have had Vietnamese many places and could not believe this was as good as it was and delivered.

This is one of our favorite take out place. The wings and grill mussels are two of our favorite dishes!! Good price and good food too!

This is place is good at making home-style Vietnamese food and I recommend that if you're dining in, you only order 1) A claypot dish, namely the braised fish (Ca Kho To) and 2) the sour soup (Canh Chua Ca hoac Tom).  Two people with this and a pot of rice make a good, affordable dinner.  I see people come here and order Orange Chicken, which confuses me so much. It's always quiet, and their kid is running around causing trouble, which is entertaining.

UPDATE: Mac Khai started delivering to Alameda again for a while now. I just now remembered to change my review. I love the food from Mac Khai. I'm leaving a star off because I can't order delivery through Eat24 anymore. It now says they do not deliver to my address. I normally get 3 item pho and beef rice porridge with different appetizers. I also get the fresh lemonade because it goes well with the pho. The service has also been wonderful. I always had the same delivery guy and he made me smile every time he delivered my food. Please deliver to Alameda again

I'm going to be perfectly honest, I've eaten here more times I can care to admit. I've had multiple noodle soups, rice porridge, and the crab & asparagus soup. I've eaten the pepper wings (soooo flavorful), the crepes, the papaya AND the lotus salad. I have eaten every one of their rolls. I've had their crab fried rice (real crab!), vermicelli and rice plates, garlic noodles, and orange beef and chicken (they serve the sauce on the side, so the meat doesn't get soggy and each bite has a nice crunch). I've even had their smoothies, which are sooo sweet and delicious. I prefer mango. I've also ordered delivery, which they do very well. $20 minimum and no delivery fee. My point being? Mac Khai is just too yummy, I can't deal with it. I've yet to try a dish I didn't enjoy here!

I love this place! I always order from Eat 24. Delivery is quick too. My favorite things to order are the vegetarian spring rolls, spicy vegetarian soup with noodles, imperial rolls, real crab fried rice (lots of big crab chunks) and the crispy noodles. I have tried other items from the menu and haven't had anything I disliked. The fresh coconut water is so refreshing and has big chunks of coconut meat in it. I order from her at least once or twice a month I wish I could order that many time a week! =) Everything is fresh, delicious and the potions are perfect.
