The restaurant offers a hybrid menu of Thai and Vietnamese dishes, with average flavor and reasonable prices. Cleanliness concerns, high prices compared to online menu, and quality issues were reported. However, positive reviews highlighted fast service, delicious food, generous portions, and authentic flavors. Some customers found the broth light and refreshing, while others enjoyed the vegan and gluten-free options. Overall, despite mixed reviews, the restaurant's popularity and quality dishes suggest a return visit is likely.
