The food here is spectacular. The staff is soft spoken but very nice. Usually no wait for seating. Take out is prepared quickly also. The best fried rice around. Doesn’t need anything added to make it taste great. This is my new favorite spot downtown

They charge a lot for mediocre pho. The spring rolls were mostly noodles, with watery peanut sauce. If you’ve had the real thing….yeah this isn’t it.

The service and indoor decor were nice, but the food didn’t match.

I had a fantastic experience here! The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The Special Bánh Xèo was perfectly crispy on the outside and packed with fresh bean sprouts and shrimp inside – probably one of the best I’ve had. The bún bò Huế (spicy beef noodle soup) was rich, aromatic, and comforting, with generous toppings like pork loaf, tender beef, and even pork blood for those who enjoy traditional flavors.

We also had the Vietnamese-style...
