I live nearby so I've walked by this place probably over 100 times now. I went for the first time tonight and it lived up to every expectation I had. It's so cute inside. Twinkly lights, a little diffuser, candles... it was so nice. It was clean and the service was friendly and fast. I loved my vermicelli bowl and the veggie spring rolls were fantastic. I'm so excited I live so close! Just disappointed it took me so long to get here.

The sweet and sour soup has been a go-to for any under-the-weather family member for decades (as Man Bean and before as their previous family restaurant). The menu is nice and concise: not a single miss. I came here to see if they were open because I was craving their soup and realized I never left a review. :P <3

And the waiter was friendly and accommodating. I tried both their spring rolls and it was delicious. I loved the vinegary sauce for the fried spring rolls and the peanut butter based sauced for the other. It was easily some of the best appetizers I’ve had. The pho was also delicious. I enjoyed the broth quite a bit. I wish there were a bit more of the vegetables and meat for it, but it was overall worth the experience.

The decor and layout are wonderful—it's both cozy and romantic, which I truly appreciated. The cleanliness of the restaurant was up to par. We were seated right away, and the service was efficient. Our orders were taken quickly, and the food arrived warm. The presentation of the dishes was top-notch, and the ingredients matched the menu descriptions perfectly. The flavors were delightful, and the portions were ample. The prices were reasonable and affordable, especially given the generous servings. In summary, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit."

The chef was generous with the beef, and the soup had a great flavor without being too salty. I want to give a shoutout to the owner for his flexibility. My in-laws, friends, and I arrived at the restaurant around 8:15 PM, just before it closed at 9 PM, but the owner warmly welcomed us and served us without any hesitation. We also enjoyed some dark chocolate with 72% cocoa, which was a delightful addition. Overall, this is a fantastic restaurant to discover in Halifax!

The chicken was tender and perfectly seasoned, served over fluffy rice with a refreshing side of crisp salad.
