My recent visit to a left me thoroughly impressed, I ordered their Rice Plate “The Works” with some shrimp spring rolls, and their fried chicken.
It was nothing short of spectacular. The thick sliced BBQ beef, BBQ pork, Shrimp was tender and packed with flavor, a testament to the kitchen's skill in marinating and grilling. Each bite was an excellent balance of savory and slightly sweet — a complimenting blend of flavors.
The Shrimp Spring Rolls were excellent as well.
Accompanying the plate were aromatic jasmine rice and a salad. The rice was fluffy and served as the ideal canvas to soak up the delicious beef juices and sauces. The vegetables provided a refreshing contrast, enhancing the overall balance of the dish.
What truly stood out was the attention to detail in the presentation. The plate was garnished with vibrant herbs, adding a touch of freshness and color that not only pleased the palate but also the eyes.
Excellent place for Vietnamese cuisine. This.place.slaps. We tried this place as part of our annual trek out to San Diego Comic-Con. So many items to try whether you want your typical phở (of which theirs is not and is levels above what you'll find at your average phở place). We mostly got what was currently listed under their limited availability specials and they were prepared to perfection. I had the beef carpaccio which was mind blowing while having all the expected Vietnamese flavors. You'll want to come back and try other things off the menu. The place is nice with an open air feel given they can open the garage-style doors to expand their eating area. The staff are polite and professional. They are following current Covid guidelines. Recommended.
We had a choice of four places to meet our friend and this is what he chose because it was different from his norm. It was a great choice. The service was friendly from the first hello until we finally headed out. The menu is mouth watering just reading it. Our server had good suggestions and everyone was more than satisfied with what they chose. I had the Shank rice plate (filet mignon) and I'm still drooling thinking about it. He went for The Works rice plate which was also amazing . My friend went for the Bun bowl and had a good amount leftover for tomorrow. After chatting a while longer we decided on dessert and tried the Chinese donuts and the Affogato. Those donuts were perfection and the Affogato was so good. Definitely add this place to your list, and you'll for sure want to come back
