Yes Justina is a foul mouth smart Alec and I wouldn't bring any kids in here but she is also warm and welcoming. She remembers patrons and what they like.
Yes the food is expensive - especially for lunch, but the food is great, full of flavor and portions are large - I always take 1/2 my vermicelli home. Plan on $20 per person.
Yes the service can be a little slow but the BYOB policy and casual atmosphere make up for that (although, the chairs are a little uncomfortable).
I love this place and we keep going back for all it is and all it isn't. One time we didn't realize they close for a couple hours in the afternoon and walked in for a special celebration just a couple minutes before they closed, they put our beer and wine in the fridge served us and told us to take our time...they are good to their customers.
Check it out but be prepared for what it is.
Also, it's small and gets packed!
