Great neighborhood place, the grilled escargot was amazing already told like 5ppl about this place just for those alone. Then I tried this beef noodle soup, there were several different kinds of beef the broth was rich and almost reminded me of menudo. So good!

If you want to have a fancy ? to check in on Instagram or FB, this is not your place. But if you want to enjoy the good food, drink some beer and chat chit with your friends, you should try this restaurant.

The food here is okay, just don't try their seafood (shellfish). We ordered quite a few but their seafood turned out to be really bad. It doesn't taste fresh and each of my family member try one bite and no one touch the seafood again. The fried catfish is okay, but not as good as other restaurant. Their papaya salad with squid is really good though so I will give them credit for that (gỏi mực).

Very good food, elevated atmosphere. Here you can dine with family and friends, listen to live music, sing and dance with a live music band. I'm delighted and would love to come back.

They have many menu items similar to the old Starfish. All good. They have a nice outdoor covered patio area and updated interior. They kept and improved the banquet area, stage, and band area. Live music is as good as the performers, and they have a good sound system, so recorded music sounds nice too. My wife and I enjoy the casual and romantic atmosphere.
The crawfish we had were live and huge and very tasty!

The live crawfish boil was possibly made in a Vietnamese fusion style which was buttery sweet spicy. The crawfish were fresh, firm, and great. The razor clams didn't quite seem as good, not sure about freshness but a bit salty.While the service is kind and fast, the food can be hit or miss. The atmosphere shows that it's still under renovation, the decor doesn't look to be finished just yet.

I did not know food portions could be cut so thin and be so tough. I should have known something was wrong when I was the only customer at 12:30 pm on a Wednesday. I will never eat here again!No mistake, waitress gave me the Starfish menu to order from, and you had a banner hanging out front advertising the name change.

Save your money and time ; go somewhere else.
The family ordered 4 lbs of crawfish after confirming it was live; 15.99/lb ; When I brought it out, I had to throw it all away after checking that the meat was all crushed and smelled bad. That original order was considered bad luck
Fried soft shell crab is too wet; Nha.t; no gion
Grilled scallops with onion fat: taste bad, smells bad because it's not fresh
Clams stir-fried with cinnamon leaves: salty; 6 out of 8 balls. dead (but probably dead a long time ago) smelly and fishy.
The price is not expensive, but in general, none of the dishes we order are delicious (all the dishes on the special sign); total bill 141.00 paid and left with no intention of coming back again.
Hopefully I won't be so unlucky that I'll have to spend a little money on medicine for stomachache. We will never come back.
