The chef clearly cares about presentation and flavor.

Small portions.

Inattentive server who suddenly became extremely attentive when we were choosing a a tip. She stared at the tipping screen while we selected a tip option.

Pre-configured tip options start at 18% of the subtotal.

As a reminder, all workers in Seattle regardless of industry are paid at least the minimum wage of $20.76.

It took 5 minutes to get seated when there was no wait. Server did not refill our water when it was out very early in the meal.

Pretty average food.

Food was fantastic, especially the eggplant starter which we’ll definitely be coming back for.

This is my go-to Vietnamese restaurant. Everything is amazing, and now they even have a separate Vegan-only menu. My favorites are the Spicy Pork Belly Rotisserie, Imperial Rolls, and Ca La Vong. I’ve been a fan of the chef/owner since his days at Monsoon.

Used to love this place, but had such a bad experience at the bar that we wont be back. You sit at a bar because of the bartender - it is a different experience from a table. The current bartender on this Saturday afternoon (dark haired middle-aged woman) shouldn't be a bartender, in my opinion - very little eye contact, seemed to ignore you even if you tried to get her attention, etc. So after waiting a while for a follow-up on some champagne that seemed off and having ordered some shrimp chips which never came (and used to be standard/free and should at least be quick), we decided to cut our losses and leave. All would have been okay and we would have probably been back, but the bartender kept drilling us on what the issue was and trying to imply we were being unfair or something because she had a bunch of tickets in front of us. We were just trying to pay and leave because it just wasn't a pleasant experience for us because of her energy. And then she couldn't even be bothered to print out our check for the beer I didn't drink because of the the tickets she was working on. Finally we were able to pay and get out of there. Wont be back unless we hear that the bartender working around 3pm on Saturday May 31st 2025 has been replaced.

Nothing exciting. I think they could’ve gave you more sauces for the pho but they didn’t…not my type of place

Absolutely beautiful place. Perfect atmosphere to relax have a drink and have amazing pho. Staff was super nice and attentive and the food made my mouth water. On top of that if you are into chill relaxing music you'll love this place. Super highly recommend wish I could give it 6 stars.

One of my fav Vietnamese spots in town. They have a few locations, all of them are delicious.
Recommend the pho, sandwiches, salads, garlic prawns, and dont skip out on dessert.

The food is just amazing and the customer service was on point. I asked the server his favorite dish, ordered, and it did not disappoint.
We will for sure go again!
The pastries were so good and tasty.

Food was excellent, had pho. Service was a little underwhelming on the "heated" patio. Overall, I'm definitely going back.
