| - I like this place! Actually came here twice in like 4 days! It's great for groups since it's a decent sized place. First time was with like 20 family members including a bunch of little nieces and nephews who were running around the restaurant like newly minted 21 year olds on the strip. Just crazy. Staff was super cool about it.
Interior is trendy, the food is like homestyle Asian/Vietnamese fusion, service was great, everyone had a great time.
Favorite dishes -
- Big Bone Soup - $15 (4/5) - Strait up #foodporn since you get this huuuuge crazy looking bowl full of marrow bones in this pho type broth. Kinda have to dig for the meat but I thought it was fun to eat. (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Mel59OcvfQjrZH2EH9_JOg&userid=pDfL8xt8F8ls0-kQIG_ADg)
- Viet-chelada! - Easy to drink, they use a Vietnamese lager instead.
- Beef carpaccio with citrus soy, truffle and sesame oil, and peanut. $13 - solid.
- Garlic noodles - solid rendition, Thanh Long/Crustacean is still the best tho.
- Oxtail fried rice - $13 (4/5) - a decent amount of parted oxtail.
Good
- Chicken wings with the garlic and serrano peppers. $8. Always a hit
- Belly buns $8 - pork belly bao's with jalapeno, cilantro, and peanut. Classic combo, they could get a little creative here and borrow from the Chairman Bao truck.
- Grilled whole squid - huge.
- Five spice roasted cornish game hen $13 - overcooked and little skimpy with meat.
- Hue style beef noodle soup $10 - cha, pork blood cubes, the broth wasn't as deep as I've had. More fusion style.
I'd come back. I'll try their lobster pho next.
