“ Best fried tofu in town. Front register staff are not friendly but the tofu is worth it. I get the vegan shaken tofu with no peppers. So flavorful! ”
“ Really good Vietnamese food with a lot of healthy options. My friends and I dropped in for lunch. You order at the register and not much to be said about service per se. We shared some spring rolls which were pretty good but I would say had way too many greens! Lol! The peanut sauce was very nice and rich albeit a bit too sweet for me. I got the Chicken curry Ga Xao Lan and was very happy with it. Flavorful, spicy, plenty of curry- was absolutely delicious! I believe one of my buddies got the Shaking beef bo luc lac and the other got the Angus seared beef. The both loved their dishes too. They have a good drink menu too and wish I had tried some of their teas. ”
