I really like ?this place. The food is well prepared and interesting. They have a way of presenting Vietnamese?e basics without stretching it out over 10 menu pages. They also have creative meats that I will never eat, like alligator, kangaroo, yak, frog legs and rabbit.
Portions are not tremendously oversized, and prices are competitive? with other trendy fusion places downtown and in Scottsdale. In my eyes, that is not necessarily a good thing. The location is at least 15 miles away from the ?entertainment districts and 7 miles from more densely populated high-income? residential areas where a $20 dinner is the norm rather than a treat. The result is an expensive dinner at a neighborhood place.
I'll return ?because the food is well prepared and of good quality, but I won't be a weekly customer. If I'm not there to meet friends for happy hour first, I'll go to one of a few other places that come to mind quickly where I can purchase the same meal for about $7-$10.
