What’s surprising to me is how few Vietnamese restaurants there are in the area. There are a ton of Thai restaurants, but no Vietnamese. Which is a shame since Vietnamese is as good as it is cheap.
I came by here at around lunch time, shortly after it opened and the place was packed. I ordered the pork over vermicelli salad, which came with a fried spring roll. It cost around ten dollars after tax.
It was really good. About as good as Vietnamese food I’ve had anywhere else, but still good. The price was right, too.
Overall, this a great, cost friendly place to have lunch.
Score: 7/10
