This place has the most unique, delicious chicken wings I have ever tasted. Their are juicy inside with a perfectly crispy skin and a sweet, salty and funky fish sauce caramel this is just absolutely out of this world delicious. The wings are topped with some fresh green onion, and there are some chili flakes in the mix (not sure if it's the sauce or added at plating) and it's a spectacular combination of flavors. These, with a tasty custard-topped Vietnamese coffee and a Banh Mi sandwich made for a delicious lunch stop!
Very nice and welcoming service!
Food came out quick and hot. We really like the wings and egg coffee! Wings size is good and great price too.
The banh mi is pretty good but nothing special.
Wish they open more hours 🥲
But yea highly recommend guys
Came here with a friend for lunch on a Friday and had a nice experience. We were seated immediately, and the host/server was very welcoming and attentive.
The food came out quickly. I ordered the chicken pho, which was flavorful but a bit sweeter than I prefer. Not a dealbreaker. The toppings were good, the chicken was moist, and everything tasted fresh. Portions were slightly smaller than other pho spots I’ve tried, but the prices were very reasonable.
The space was cozy and fit the pho vibe well. I’d come back again, though I’d probably try something different next time, my friend got the spring rolls and really enjoyed them.
As a Vietnamese, I do NOT recommend the cà phê sữa đá, it tastes strange and it is not near "cà phê sữa đá" at all. However, the bánh mì and phở bò were GOOD for me, although the portions ( Phở ) were quite small compared to other Vietnamese restaurants but the broth really saving it.
Wanted to like this place.
Will say the fries were good
In terms of the pho, I ordered the tofu version
And asked for it spicy. It is incredibly sweet. additionally there were exactly 4 triangles of tofu in it which is literally like 1/8th of a block of tofu- probably one of the most inexpensive proteins on the market. I have had better pho from a hospital cafeteria than here. Maybe the banh mi’s are better?
