    I was here last year! I didn’t realize how large the mall was. Came here to get my daughter’s ears pierced at one of the jewelry shops (Hoan anh). It was a great experience.

    I also would like to add that famous Vietnamese comedian, Van Son, use to have his own video store in Little Saigon. It’s closed down now and now, he also has his own RUclips channel.

      Ahhh man, I love watching Van Son, even touring the cities as well. I know Viet Thao left the show for such a long time and started his own way on his YT channel.

    Hi Chris. Thanks for the walking tour of the Asian Garden Mall. Most Asian malls tend to be a place where the community gathers for events. Great place to get some wonderful Vietnamese food. Thanks for sharing and take care.

    Yeah, In 2023 I was able to visit every Indoor Mall that was still open in Orange County and I gotta say, out of the 2 indoor malls in Westminster, this could be the smaller one but also the most interesting since it is a fun way to try out some new food.

    I remember going to this location over 15 years ago. At the time, it was mostly outdoor shops filled with Vietnamese restaurants and shops. I loved going here to get a chance to try new foods.
    I'm glad a lot of it is inside now.

    Thanks for the video, Mr. Rainey. I remember going to Asian Garden Mall back in the late 90’s and early 00’s whenever my family came to Orange County for Disneyland. Back then, it wasn’t very nice inside. I also remembered there use to be a small arcade in there

      Omg, I’ve freakin’ remember there’s an arcade place in there as well. I think it’s “Kids Korner”, iirc.

    Ah yes, welcome the my favorite mall that I’ve been to for approximately 20 years. That’s the place where the night market will open between June and September. Hopefully you can visit that place again once the event is up.

    My hubby and I went there to look for jewelry because we heard it was a good place to get a ring. They had NOTHING in my size. 😂

    It is not as large as one make out to be. Largest vietnamese mall ofcourse but compared to other malls its actually pretty small. Little Saigon in Westminster, CA is the largest vietnamese community in America. Yes there are Little Saigon and Vietnamese cummunity in other states or cities like Houston and San Fran but if you truely want ab authentic Vietnamese foods and experienced without going to Vietnam, Westminster, CA is the place to be.
