So it has been a looooooong time since I have eaten at Cyclo and had an opportunity to have a little Vietnamese lunch so there I sat.... waiting for my friend. The place looks great! lively fun new interior. I was sat promptly and offered water with a bit of mint (nice touch).
I ordered the short rib appetizer and crispy chicken. My friend ordered the mixed grill. The short ribs as I remember did not disappoint. Succulently flavorful making me dream of taking a full order of them home just to smell in the car! The crispy chicken had great flavor, but was a little over cooked. (of course that didn't stop me from eating it.) My friend really liked the mixed grill and loved the atmosphere.
Before I would have given 5 stars, but today a 4. Don't let that stop you from trying though... It is definitely worth trying and I'd say a little more lively at dinner.
