    Crispy rice salad is pricy. Other than that, everything was good.

    We did the tasting menu for a group of 6 people. It was absolutely delicious, and we had so much fun trying a bunch of different items. We had way too much food and then also added an order of bun cha (do it!), so while we couldn't finish it all we had a great time trying. So fun to try different aspects of Vietnamese cuisine.

    We were not impressed by the service or the quality of the food. I’ve never been served a curry that did not come with rice. Apparently rice must be ordered separately. The grilled pork patties dish was confusing. It consisted of a soup with the patties and served with lettuce leaves and rice noodles. Was it to be lettuce wraps or a soup to throw lettuce leaves into? The other two dishes were unremarkable. Server was nowhere to be found throughout the meal.

    We had an absolutely amazing dining experience today! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The service was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Now, the food… wow. Every dish was packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The oysters were incredible—cooked just right, with the perfect balance of seasoning and texture. The fish was unbelievably fresh and delicious, easily one of the best we’ve ever had. The drinks were spot on—expertly crafted and so good that we could’ve kept ordering more. And then came dessert… absolutely to die for. Every bite was rich, flavorful, and the perfect ending to an already fantastic meal. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for incredible food, great drinks, and top-notch service, this is the place. Can’t wait to go bac

    When my friend and I arrived, we let our server—who had a great personality—know that we were specifically there for the tasting menu. After bringing our drinks, I asked if he had placed the food order, and he informed us that he had just found out the tasting menu was no longer available for the rest of the evening. However, about 15 minutes later, a group of four was seated next to us and was able to order the tasting menu without any issue, which was frustrating and confusing. Additionally, I requested a non-alcoholic lychee drink but was instead served mango juice. Overall, it was a disappointing experience. I was really looking forward to the tasting menu, so I may consider giving it another try in the future.
