The historic bar and interior create a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for special occasions. The menu features dishes like Hunan BBQ Pork Ribs, Chilled Sesame Peanut Noodles, and Lemongrass Chicken Banh Mi, with vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options clearly marked. Despite its dive bar appearance, the kitchen offers creative and delicious dishes crafted by Chef Vinh Nguyen. The restaurant also hosts events such as weddings, serving impressive items like Green Chop Salad with spicy Thai dressing, Green Curry Crispy Rice, onion noodles, and tater tots with Gochujang glaze. The brunch menu, though limited, provides high-quality vegan and gluten-free options, with standout items like beef rendang and breakfast sando, complemented by a vodka-gin Bloody Mary and black sesame brown butter rice crispy for dessert.
This charming spot has a delightful karaoke bar upstairs and a lively vibe inside and outside, full of history and charm. The patio stage offers a unique outdoor experience, and the friendly customers contribute to a relaxed atmosphere. The menu is not typical, with items such as mentaiko pasta and salmon crispy rice gaining praise, along with the spicy curry crispy rice. The attentive service adds to the enjoyable experience, making it a place worth visiting for both drinks and exceptional food.
