| - 3.5/5, +.5 for service
Quite surprised by this place. It's definitely one of the better Vietnamese places in Chinatown, and there's a lot more variety here compared to other competitors in the area.
Design of the restaurant is quite standard, with not much decorations. They do have a TV at the front though. When I arrived on a Friday, the place wasn't too full, but it did fill up as the lunch hour continued.
I ordered the beef stew with rice stick noodle soup (hu tieu bo kho), as the photo image in the menu looked like the tomato broth was quite strong and filling. Sure enough, the broth was actually one of the better tomato soup bases I've had (and I've tried several). The noodle was of the pho kind, and it was decent for the price I paid.
Service is good for an Asian restaurant. They will greet you, politely ask you if you want tea, and generally show good courtesy. In my opinion, this is probably one of the better Vietnamese restaurants in the area, and I would highly recommend it if you're in Chinatown looking for good, cheap food.
