    Nice brunch. Queso was good. Not the fest shrimp n grits; I’ve heard they’ve been better from one of my fellow diners. The Bloody Mary carafe was good. Bubbles amd orange too. Done of our dining partner’s smoked pork special wasn’t impressive, not smoky.

    Pho had minimal flavor and the special of the night (pork off the bone) was half inedible and had bone shards in it. Plus it all ended up being very pricy considering the quality. Crispy wings were good.

    The food was solid, the service was meh. Waited to be seated, the reservation wasn't checked. Not a deal breaker, but we made the reservation because it was someone's birthday in the party. It was of course not mentioned by the staff. Minor oversight. After putting in a drink order we waited twenty minutes before learning they were changing the tap. No alternative offered. Not the worst, but an easy thing to resolve in a timely fashion. We ordered and asked specifically for items to come out as apps before our entrees. One person got their apps, the rest of the table waited without food and without anyone stopping by to top up drinks. The other apps came with the entrees...a kill. Now the rest of the table had to rush through eating everything before it got cold. Bummer. The food saved this experience. Time and temp nailed it. Gang-style service came at the end, but it was too little, too late. Drinks were decent. I'd order again...to-go.

    The food is always delicious here. The service varies…maybe after a holiday everyone is a little off. Nevertheless this remains a favorite.

    One of our favorite meals in New Orleans! Delicious and creative food, not heavy, everything fresh, excellent vegetarian options. Loved everything we had: tofu bun, cucumbers, green beans, veg curry, veg pho. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Our server, Brandi, was very friendly and helpful. Would eat here at least weekly if we lived in town.

    The food was good and the service was good. The amount of protein in the Pho is a little small and I was sad that they no longer offer the tofu vindaloo bites.
