I found it hard to read the menu on the yellow paper and felt there wasn't enough light to read it. But loved the food and the service.

Gorgeous little Vietnamese restaurant. Was pretty and peaceful. Excellent customer service. The good was delicious and good quality. The only minor negatives were there was a lot of gooey fat in my beef curry and the local Sav Blanc tasted stake, otherwise everything else was 10/10. The curry was outstanding and the spring rolls were great too.

It was excellent, my only negative was that the food came very quickly. It would benefit from slowing down a little.
