| - Was around the east end of downtown, and I had never been around that area (Leslieville?). Drove by this restaurant and noticed there were a lot of people waiting in line. It is a Vietnamese restaurant, and it had a very authentic feel to it. Place is quite spacious, and they have enough seats so you won't have to wait long. Good thing it didn't take long, I had the biggest hangover ever in history and I needed food asap.
Ordered the Grilled Beef Short Ribs, Shredded Pork Skin, and steamed egg on rice. This is one of my favourite dishes, and I have to say that it was an average dish compared to other authentic Vietnamese restaurants.
What was good?
- a lot of options on the menu
- portion sizes are huge, and I eat a lot
- perfectly cooked short ribs and tasty but a little bit on the oily side
What was bad?
- service was a bit slow, as they were clearly understaffed. At the time I was there, they only had 2 people working, while the restaurant was near full
Recommendation:
I recommend this place if it is the only and last option. There are plenty of other Vietnamese restaurants just down the road, that are more delicious and cheaper.
