I truly wish I could give this place a full five stars, because the food itself is absolutely…read moreamazing. Every dish I've ever tried was flavorful, well-prepared, and clearly made with care. You can tell a lot of heart goes into the cooking here. On top of that, the staff is wonderful -- friendly and genuinely welcoming, which always makes us feel valued as guests. Unfortunately, I have to rate my current experience four out of five stars due to an issue that significantly impacted our meal. While we were eating, there were cockroaches crawling on the wall near us, which was extremely unsettling and completely tainted the experience. It made it very difficult to continue enjoying our food, despite how delicious it was. I say this with sincerity: if the restaurant can fully address the cleanliness concerns, including any cockroach or rodent issues, I truly believe this place can return to being a solid five-star restaurant. The food and the people are already there -- it just needs that final, crucial piece to match the quality of everything else.

Though they advertise they serve both Thai and Vietnamese cuisine, you won't find boat noodle soup or khao soi here for Thai food. For Vietnamese noodle soups, they do offer some of the other popular ones like bun bo hue, bun rieu, and bo kho. Here, they also have rice plates and vermicelli bowls too. I typically get their bun bo hue and it's good every time. Service is pretty quick and staff is always nice.

We're talking bright, floral, curated decor, and a sleek modern layout that makes you pause for a second like--wait, is this still a banh mi shop? Oh, and it gets better. The other half of the space? A full-blown Vietnamese bakery and café. Croissants and cà phê sữa đá sharing a wall with grilled meats and pickled veggies. It's a wild, beautiful setup. Naturally, I had to go classic. Grilled beef banh mi, let's go. I was ready to be blown away. I wanted to love this sandwich so badly. I really did. The presentation was clean. The bread had that golden crackle. But the beef? Tough. Chewy. Hard to get through, and not in the satisfying "rip and savor" kind of way--more like "why am I fighting this sandwich?" And the bread-to-meat ratio? Way off. Felt like I was eating a baguette with a grudge. Now, I'm not writing this place off--not even close. The space alone is worth a return trip, and the menu is deep enough to warrant a second round. But first impression? Let's just say it didn't hit like it could have. Here's hoping round two hits it out the park.

Still excellent, still sweet (though now more noticeably spicy too), and still important to remind that the dishes here are not necessarily attempting authentic cuisine of specific regions (even though specific dishes are named), but more of a freestyle approach. The wings have improved in recent visits. More plump, more crisp, more juice, more flavor. Still good value. Still a little weak on the service (more about being young, unfocused and lacking initiative than anything approaching rudeness). Still highly recommended.

For a late dinner today, I decided to try the Bun Bo Hue ($14.95)…read more Unfortunately, it barely had the funky chili sauce that defines the dish. Without that, it resembled a slightly richer bowl of pho with wider rice noodles. Not bad as a noodle soup on its own terms, but it isn't an actual Bun Bo Hue. I also ordered spring rolls ($7). These had both shrimp and some tofu-meat approximation - not the new-age plant-based stuff, mind you, but the sort of fake meat that Buddhists have refined and perfected over a millennia of not eating meat. The rice paper was a bit chewy, but not yet stale.

My brisket was very tough and needed salt desperately. I have to say this is the first time I've ever complained about the food. The broth has always was out of this world. We've been lucky that we've always been waited on by the owner. She's absolutely a delight, always smiling and just a positive individual. We had a new waitress Thursday.
