   Food was exceptional - unique, interesting, flavorful. Food presentation was outstanding. Portions were generous. Service was good. Only disappointment was that they played 60's rap music at such a high volume thay you couldn't have a pleasant conversation, with out a continual, "What did you say?"

   Outdoor noise level is low. Indoor noise level is too much. I don’t want 80s pop blasting in my ear. Fried sea bass is such a gem. But pho is atrocious. Service is off.

   Had never been to Little Sister and had heard mixed reviews about service. It exceeded expectations. We had a table of 4 and the service was great, Gabriella who looked after us was lovely and attentive and the food was fantastic. Great atmosphere of diners enjoying their Friday evening.

   Lovely atmosphere with good service. Food was mediocre. Not authentic Vietnamese seems to have a bit of identity crisis. Prices high even for Spectrum/Orange County. Will not go back or recommend.

   It seems they have a new menu, which was not as descriptive of the dishes. We’ve really loved eating there in the past, but this time it seemed like some of the dishes we tried or just not as good as they used to be.

   Love the food but a minor beef. seems at every restaurant they have runners that drop off the food which is fine if done properly. However last night the runner would drop off the food then beat it fast before I can ask for something. If the waiter doesn’t come by the table soon you could sit there a long time before the problem is corrected. Other than that I love the place.

   Food was fantastic and very unique. Service was incredible. The only very small complaint I have is that the music was a bit loud like dubstep and not relaxing.
