• Southeast Asian • Huntington Beach
Booked 25 times today
Behind an unmarked door adjacent to the wine room, guests are transported to District 1 (China Town) in Saigon via Blackhouse’s 28-seat restaurant-within-a-restaurant, LSXO. A spinoff of the Little Sister brand (Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach & Downtown Los Angeles), LSXO is love letter to the culture, heritage, and lineage of Vietnam (Vuong’s relatives hail from the region). While Little Sister is known for its French Vietnamese menu, LSXO follows the same Southeast Asian inspiration with a more refined feel. “There is no signage for LSXO—you can spot the entrance of it tucked into a section inside Bluegold, but you’ll have to know it’s there. While Bluegold is light, bright, and airy, LSXO is its darker, edgier little sister,” says Vuong. “Both restaurants operate out of the same kitchen, though the menus are completely different. LSXO offers straight-up, honest, home-style Vietnamese cuisine—the type of food I grew up eating with my grandparents in the San Gabriel Valley

    Greeted by a very cordial hostess then seated in a lovely outdoor area. Our waiter was patient with all of us as first time guests and he explained the menu in great detail. Pod was outstanding.

    I've been going here for years because it's always reliable with great food. It was very busy last night because the theater had 2 shows. When it is that crowded, it is very noisy. Bottom line, reliable and great, especially if you're going to the theater.

    Very good, it’s been this way past few years we have dined. The best way to dine is “Family Style” and add on some apps to share and choose the carbs…we like steamed jasmine rice, and garlic noodles. The Orange peel chicken is great…butterfish and the sizzling Ribeye!! *Get the ribeye med rare and it will continue cooking to med. yummm. Didn’t table side ice cream it was delicious and came with a fresh baked chocolate cookie.

    We moved to California 11 years ago. We started going to Black Sngus in Fountain Valley. It has been one of the most frequent visited restaurants since then - for my family birthday and anniversary gatherings and for intimate dinners with my wife as we did tonight for our 41st anniversary!
