This was our first try of vietnamese food and we were very pleasantly surprised. It was a Monday and we shared the restaurant with only 14 other guests and it was not noisy at all. The beef was amazing, the chicken very tasty. Service was friendly and very quick. They even have wheat beer! We definately will be back.
