Delicious through and through! Some of the best I have had, and quite resonable on price. Service was busy, but very professional and eager to please. Great atmoshere. We were a bit underdressed, but no one seemed to notice. Will most definitely be back!

Came here for breakfast and it was such a vibe! We had Xoi Man, Xoi Chien, Garlic noods and the Wildberry matcha latte, creme brulee coffee and salted egg coffee. The food and drinks were all delicious and definitely insta worthy! I would recommend doing it as sharing plates though because it can get pretty filling. Service was wonderful and the atmosphere was great too.
