                          Great Vietnamese fusion. We had the lunar new year set menu. Chili oil wontons, crispy pork belly, whole fried fish, and desserts were all great. Very loud dining room though.

                          We sat at the bar and were able to take advantage of the happy hour specials on drinks and appetizers, which was nice because the menu is quite pricey. Even sitting at the bar, the service was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and friendly. The food tasted great and the portions were generous. Only complaint was the coconut curry risotto was a little sweet for my taste. Overall a very pleasant dining experience.

                          Food was fantastic. The whole, crispy fish dish is a revelation. Highly recommend it. The pacing of appetizers and entree could use a little work. But overall, a good experience.

                          Not my favorite. Probably should have ordered one super salad and a single entree.

                          We had a party of 6 and did the family feast dinner menu. Everything was delicious and the service was excellent. Half of our party had not been there before. We thoroughly enjoyed each and every appetizer, main course and dessert. Our drinks were perfect.

                          Second time coming here. Last time was the winter set menu. Great value if you’re here with a family of four. Went during brunch and there were only three options (snow crab fried rice, wild mushroom tofu, and ribeye with fried eggs). The dinner menu was still available but we weren’t they hungry as the portions are normally family style. We had the chicken and rice, ribeye and eggs, and snow crab fried rice. All tasted great. The chicken and rice had fried chicken skin bits. The marinade on the ribeye is similar in taste with Filipino adobo. This place is also known for their signature cocktails. We had the margarita, tamarind tom yum (mocktail), and gold nugget. It’s an elevated take on Vietnamese food so don’t be surprised for the sticker shock.
