I was craving Pho and this place did not disappoint. They technically only have one option, but with your choice of meats. Bowl came quickly and was delicious. My girlfriend had a noodles and shrimp dish that was superb as well. Interior was clean and well kept. Totally worth the visit and a few returns to try more of the menu.
I'm Vietnamese and this might be my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in all of Northern California. The sugar cane spring rolls, Bo Luc Lac (steak and rice), FRIED CHICKEN (melts in your mouth and the side salad that comes with it is SO GOOD!) are my favorite dishes. Khoi was our server and super kind, and Qui, the chef, was so talented in making these dishes presentable and cooking it all very fresh right in front of us! 12/10 recommend.
11/10 for the Chef's Bar Experience. The cocktails were amazing; creative, balanced, and beautifully presented. The tapas were delicious and paired perfectly with each drink. Still thinking about the fried banana dessert. The service and atmosphere was top notch. Can't wait to go back, planning to bring friends!
We went here on a Saturday around 3pm and were able to get seated right away. The inside is small and large selection at the bar. It is nicely decorated and could be a good evening spot to hang and drink. We got the ibiza, which is their sweetest drink, and the saigon french quarters, which was strong. Both were good and I look forward to trying other drinks here. They have quite the menu for drinks- alcoholic, non alcoholic, wine, juice, tiki drinks, etc. As for the food, I really enjoyed the roti and the fried wicked buns. The buns remind me of vietnamese donuts and are on the sweet side. They weren't dry at all or hard. They are not that dense either. The ribs and pork belly were fine, but I would be interested in trying more of their other food menu items as well. Parking is on the street and may be hard to fine. Staff was nice and attentive.
Garlic noodles with their Sriracha sauce are amazing. Also the Tokyo street fashioned cocktail is delicious. Really great spot for a nice meal. Chill vibe
