| - An overall enjoyable experience, if not innovative or especially unique.
We got 3 items, the 2 Buns for $10, Papaya salad with pork for $9.50, and the rice noodle dish for $14.50. The buns were average, with pork belly, cucumber, cilantro, and hoisin sauce. For $5 a bun I wish there was a little more pizzazz for the price, but they were still definitely tasty. The papaya salad was very enjoyable, with a nice level of spice. acidity from the lime, and texture from the addition of peanuts and cilantro. The pork on top was seasoned quite well, too. (Only personal gripe is that I felt red bell peppers an odd addition but it wasn't bad or anything). The rice noodle dish came with clams, shrimp, and chinese sausage. The clams were really nice, and I really like the addition of the chinese sausage. Overall everything was prepared well and the portion sizes were bigger as well.
The trendy atmosphere was not really for me, but I can appreciate the care they put into making the decor colorful and vibrant. Honestly, if the buns were either cheaper or more interesting I would probably give it a five, as the service was extremely fast and helpful as well.
