One of the best banh mis I have had in a long time. The bread was perfectly toasted. Soft in the inside and crunchy on the outside. They gave a good amount of meat and veggies in the sandwich. And the Vietnamese coffee… perfect. Very delicious authentic Vietnamese food. I definitely am coming back. They even provided some iced jasmine green tea while we sat, we didn’t even ask for it. The tea was delicious too.

I absolutely love this restaurant..but calling is not working for me. My son wants to have a birthday dinner there and I want to be able to celebrate. I was literally calling to see if they could accommodate a cake and candles for my son. And I just cant get through. Someone picked up and hung up on me. It sucks but my son wants his birthday dinner there. We live 2 blocks away we go past it. And it always smells amazing. Im sure its just a flaw.
