4.9 / 5.0(2,766 reviews)

Daisy our server was very patient in explaining our food and she showed us how to eat the vietnamese pancake. Good job to her! Kudos! The food we ordered was also very good. The beef was cooked tender soft and flavorful. The fried rice smelled aromatic. We had a good experience and will come back for sure. Thank you! Decided to try this place out after friends raved about the reviews. Its location couldn’t have been more convenient as it was right around the corner of the hostel we were staying at. Came as a group of 4 and instantly got a spot even though there were already people dining there. Our server was Ashley and was very polite, accommodating, and prompt with service. I ordered the green papaya salad with pork & shrimp. I had yet to taste this dish or anything similar and it was quite delicious. I was very pleased with the quality, freshness, flavor, and presentation. Thank you for the great experience and for giving us a great “taste of Saigon” :). Had a great experience here! The Vietnamese food was delicious and authentic, and the flavors were spot on. The place feels warm and welcoming. Special mention to Ashley, who speaks very good English and made ordering so much easier. Excellent service and tasty dishes. My family and I had a great time!

We had dinner at this restaurant and it was nice to calm down from the busy street life and enjoy a good meal. Our waitress Phoebe was super smiley and very attentive. We felt at ease and so did all the other guests at this place. We can recommend the buffalo dish. It is something we had never before and it was tasty!

Phoebe was very helpful, explaining many of the dishes to me. I ordered one of her favorites, bun thit nuong. Veggies, chicken, rice noodles and herbs. My gosh it was delicious. The fish sauce on the side was mild and delicious too. Phoebe made sure everything was to my liking. Great dining experience. Great staff.
