Came here for lunch on Sunday and was seated right away. Nice atmosphere, was pretty busy with locals. Enjoyed the grilled lemongrass beef with noodles and the seafood pancake. Was really tasty!

I liked the restaurant’s decor and ambiance. It wasn’t too crowded for a late lunch on Saturday. Presentations for the dishes were very nice; however, all the dishes were just way too salty! I had to keep drinking water throughout my meal…I think I must have drunken at least 2 jugs of water! Service was mediocre. The person who brought the dishes out had no idea what those dishes were and mixed up our dish with the next table’s. There are a lot of places for improvement.

The food was amazing and the service was excellent. Our server was very helpful as we navigated the menu, looking for the right balance of dishes for our party of four. A little noisy, they might have turned the music down so we could hear each other talking. Going back the next time we are in Los Angeles.

Food was perfectly prepared and even though i did a take out to my hotel, the greens that came with my grilled lemongrass pork chop stayed dresh and crisp. The pork chop was so very nicely cooked! Very flavorful. And the rice cooked just right. It made my day!

Service and presentation were top notch but the food was not really good. Even if it is advertised as "fusion vietnamese" it still tasted so off. Their meat selections were good though.

I've been to the Irvine location. The DTLA space is about 1000% smaller. Given the smaller space, it feels a bit cozier. Definitely recommend reserving online. Came here on a Monday at 730pm. It was still relatively busy. Service: Food and drinks came out very fast. Almost feels a bit rushed. Certain nuances such as sauces took some effort. Given the shortage with Sriracha sauce. Recommend bringing your own. The "spice condiments" here tasted like ketchup. Not a fan at all. Given the prices, they should make their hot sauce in-house. Food wise. It's pretty decent. Better alternative than driving down to OC from LA for decent Vietnamese. Price wise, it's way higher than traditional Vietnamese restaurants. The environment was alright. Given the small space, the noise volume can be a bit much. Overall, I will likely not be back to this location.
