Truc Orient Express

First time trying this restaurant- the food was fresh and delicious- I had the shrimp rolls and sweet and sour chicken and both were delicious! If you are in West Stockbridge I’d recommend stopping in for a great meal.

Exquisite hospitality and kindness shown by the owner. Her attention to detail and care with everything she does is expressed in her delicious authentic food. She takes immense care with my food restrictions and is one of the only places I feel safe eating out. Truc is a true testament to her long standing family business that continues to thrive and be an active part in our community here in West Stockbridge.

I'm spoiled. I love great Vietnamese food, which is plentiful in San Francisco. Having just moved here, I was blindsided by the culinary talent at Truc Orient Express. This restaurant is a gem in The Berkshires that is deserving of all five stars. Try the Vietnamese pancake--it's all that it should be--crispy, fresh and filled with fresh produce and shrimp. The sauces are fabulous and the desserts are to die for. If you have an opportunity to meet the owner, say hello. She and her staff take great pride in their work ad know their customers on a first-name basis. I can't say enough good things about how lovely the food is and accommodating and kind the staff are at delivering a memorable first class dining experience.

I cannot believe there are negative reviews here. This restaurant is a gem: a family-owned Berkshires institution that offers delicious, healthy food at fair prices. The owner has always been kind and gracious toward me. TOE is an asset to the West Stockbridge community and Berkshire county. Highly recommended!

Awesome! Gift shop supports artisans in Vietnam! You must see it to fully appreciate all the beautiful items here! The family is so gracious and the restaurant is so amazing! Don't miss this wonderful place and their hospitality! Seasonal so check before you go!

Not perfect, but reliable and always fresh, beautifully-cooked food. This family run (our host was all of 8) local Vietnamese restaurant has some aspects to legitimately criticize like the ac is rarely on, even assuming they have it, and the wait staff is either family or less than expert (but unfailingly sweet), but the food will rarely disappoint. Prices are reasonable for Berkshire food, but seem to grow year by year. But then there is the food. If Vietnamese is what you crave it should satisfy.

We got the happy pancakes, lemongrass tofu, and spring rolls and loved all of it—the pancakes especially are a must-try. The owner was generous to fit us in on short notice. Highly recommended!

Excellent meal. When we arrived we were told they were short-staffed. As the restaurant was fairly crowded, we expected to have our order delayed and to experience slow service. This wasn't the case at all, as the staff worked extra hard to get everything right. We had delicious vegetarian starters and entrees. Highly recommend this place.

One of the great restaurants of my life, over the 28 years my family has been coming to Truc this truly family owned restaurant, with modern authentic Vietnamese food, the loveliest extended family running the place and the calming, elegant dining room and one of a kind gift shop has been a highlight of summer in the Berkshires. When I speak to my grown kids, now living all over the world and they say they've been to a Vietnamese restaurant I always ask "how was it?' and they say "its no Truc!" lol. Happy they were open for takeout during the pandemic. Thanks Luy, Truc and family for being such a big part of our family traditions.

Truc Orient Express is a little gem in the heart of West Stockbridge. The food is wonderful, fresh, tasty and authentic Vietnamese. The people are genuine, warm and friendly and great service. They also have a nice shop with imported gifts from Vietnam.

Trúc is an exceptional cook! Every bite was amazing and the lemon mousse to top it off was the perfect ending. Worth the 2 hour drive for such incredible food!

I first discovered this place around 1985, it was a place to get a fresh clean taste. I made friends with Louie and than unfortuanately I moved 3 hours away in NH. I visited again in 95 where I caught up to my friend Louie the owner in Lenox at a food fair. Now ive always enjoyed the food,especially the appetizers and sauces. I also get the summer squid dish with vegetables.

I plan on visiting again in July and Im not sure My friend Louie will remember or not but it will be a fun visit and I love the food.
So Louie if you are reading this I found a few pictures of you and the misses from the mid 80,s and one of you and I in the 90,s

Nice place. Owners' kids great workers. Sweet and courteous. Food solid. Also, lots of Asian pots etc. For sale.
