I'm a huge fan of Vietnamese food. Literally every new place I travel to I look forward to banh mi, pho, bubble tea, and my favorite vermicelli and meat dishes.
Decided to order take out for my first experience at this restaurant because the house was packed on a Friday night. Ordered lemongrass beef with vermicelli noodles and iced Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk. Super disappointing. First off the meat was red and I'm referring to food dye. There was no flavor of lemongrass whatsoever. Stingy portions! Every other Vietnamese place I've been to in my lifetime gives you a great portion of noodles, veggies, and meat. I couldn't even find the cucumbers at the way bottom - maybe 5 small thin slices. The Thai basil didn't mix well with this dish either.
Ordered Viet coffee with condensed milk. Talk about diabetes in a cup. I've ordered many Viet coffees and I know how to make the drink. Way too much condensed milk for an iced coffee that was 12 oz. The best part of ordering this type of coffee is to actually taste the strong brew that will make you grow chest hairs.
The good stuff - the fish sauce. It was flavorful in abundance and I could see the fresh pepper. That's about all. Not sure if I'll be back to try other stuff...it wasn't worth the price.
