I really enjoy the Grilled Pork (Heo Nuong) and the Fried Egg Rolls. I definitely recommend this restaurant!

It gets quite busy during lunchtime, as many employees from the surrounding businesses come by, but I found it easy to find a seat. I definitely recommend giving it a try! Food: 5/5

As a Vietnamese dish, it really lacked flavor. There was just something strange about the pork; I’ve had this meal at many different places, and this particular version was disappointing.

The let the food speak for itself.I could see this become habit forming I just wish I lived closer!Vegetarian options: There are so many delicious options for vegetarians and vegans the tofu fried rice is fabulous, and they will happily make the spring rolls without shrimp if you don't eat seafood. Pho can be prepared vegetarian, as can the chowmein dishes.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to allow wheelchair access and the space is open enough to easily maneuver to order and to your table.

The lemongrass bahn mi is my absolute favorite. Sometimes they run out of bread early so we’ve been a little bummed when that happens but overall very nice and tasty!
