                          Loved every aspect of it except the noise from other customers. It was hard to have a discussion at the table.

                          Great and knowledgeable, friendly staff. Wonderful flavors….the Short rib pappardelle took me back to the Chinese beef stews of my childhood with the anise/fives spice flavors, with a twist…on pappardelle! The Green papaya Caesar salad was delectable as were the Chili oil wontons but with the right amount of heat, not overpowering. Will def be back to try more!!!

                          Salad had to much dressing, tofu was tough and coffee was lukewarm. Service and ambiance was very good.

                          It was our first time to the restaurant, exploring a new one with some old friends. We all were pleasantly surprised! From the creativity, the amount of food, the range of food, to the service, the ambience,and the price, everything was quite on point. A Definite Find! Already spread the words to friends and adult children. We will be back. soon Great place to take guests and be proud of Vietnamese food. For sure!!👍🏻

                          All the food and drink were amazing. Don’t skip the pho pate and the seafood cha gio. Their signature cocktails are amazing as well. You honestly can’t go wrong with any choice you make. A wonderful dining experience

                          While the food was very good-nice variety, wonderful flavors-the service took away from the entire dining experience. Our appetizers arrived before our cocktails and we felt so rushed in the first 15 minutes, we purposefully delayed ordering our entrees. No explanation of the food was offered (we didn’t know to add mint to one of the wraps we ordered). The server interrupted our conversation several times (not waiting until we had finished a sentence). The noise level was much too loud and the tables were too close together for such a “luxury” restaurant.

                          Incredible food! I’ve been twice and both experiences have been amazing. I took my husband for his birthday and he loved it! The cocktails are outstanding and the ambiance is perfect for a nice dinner out. I love that the menu changes so you can try new dishes yet some of their traditional classic dishes are always available(the Bo Kho Pappardelle is a must with the Yuca cake for dessert!!). The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive as well. Highly recommend!! We will be returning for the next menu change!!
