Delicious!! Meat was tender and the sandwich was flavorful. Bread was nice and soft and fresh. My passionfruit ice tea was very flavorful and refreshing. Definitely will be back.

Vietnamese food is not easy to find in LA. To be honest there were some hits and misses here. My favorite item is the pork belly banh mi! It’s braised so it just melts in your mouth. The egg rolls are also delicious. They give plenty of veggies to wrap and sauce to dip. I didn’t like the bun rieu. I mean, nothing can compare to the real authenticity of home cooked food like I’m used to. I just thought the soup was too bland and the crab meatballs were a weird texture. I liked the tofu in it. I want to try the bun Bo hue and pho next time. They have more items on their menu that I’d love to taste- like the desserts: Che and flan. Service was friendly, he gave me some good suggestions. Ambiance was relaxed and no frills. Parking was a nuisance bc limited street parking. However, there’s a pa

We ordered to go, so cannot really comment on the service, but the atmosphere inside feels modern, welcoming and warm. The restaurant is already packed by 6:20pm on a Wednesday. We ordered Bánh mì with chicken and fried egg, and grilled beef noodle salad with egg rolls. The sandwich is my preferred choice. It is very tasty with chewy bread (in a good way), generous portion of chicken and pickle veggies to balance the flavor. The noodle salad is also not bad, but not as good as another place I go in South Bay (Saigon Dish) with less portion. Not sure if the dine in portion will be bigger though. If you are hungry, both options are solid, but if you need to choose one, definitely go with the Bánh mì.

Came here and really enjoyed. The cold noodle bowl was amazing. Really flavorful. The service was great as well as they took good care of us. I would come back.

Went in on a Wednesday night for a quick dinner. Staff were friendly and attentive. Food comes out quickly and is fresh. Great vege / vegan options. The noodle Salads were the best! Cute little vibe to the inside a parking stage across the street for a quick walk over with secure parking. Great for a low key catch up dinner.
