| - Kitschy, cute, and fun! Located near Queen Street W and Bathurst Street, this is a really casual spot that's great for small groups and dates. Space is definitely limited, ambiance is lively but dim. Super laid-back, but still with a sense of vibrancy. Service might be a little slow, but they're accommodating and friendly when they're around.
The food itself is fusion Vietnamese goodness. This isn't your usual Pho Mi or Golden Turtle experience - far, far, from. It's hip but zany (you can tell from the dim but colourful lights), and the menu reflects that very same attitude. It's Vietnamese food with a twist.
Since we weren't too hungry when we visited, we ordered: a) the "So Fly" fried rice (which has a myriad of ingredients I wouldn't be able to list - the same reaction I had when I saw how many ingredient's Lee's Singaporean Slaw had!), b) the Lac-Lac Beef Ribs Platter. Overall, delicious flavours. The rice had some crunch and a great texture - it isn't very spicy, and actually had a nice sweetness and saltiness to it. The beef ribs had nice flavourful, but could have been more tender.
Overall, a really charming spot. The food was generally delicious, and we'd love to come back and try other items from their quirky menu. For two items, we paid over $35.
